On the way to the guardhouse near the main gate, the usual gatekeeper was sitting in the chair.

In addition, a black-haired boy is lying in the bed beside him.

"Dear Nigel, And Miss Eliane."

The doorman noticed us and turned his face towards us.

"Sorry for the trouble."

"It's okay. Even so... is that the boy who's going down?

Nigel gazed at the boy lying in bed and the doorman nodded slowly.

"Yes, have you heard the whole story?

"Oh, did I hear you call yourself the King or you're looking for a healer?

"Exactly. However, if you don't have a pass, entry fee, or anything else, you can't get into the city easily. From the beginning, it seemed like it was fluffy, but if I was explaining it, I suddenly fell down... I didn't think it would be easy to leave it there, so I'm letting you sleep here now."

"Yeah, thanks. I think it was an appropriate response."

Thank you very much.

Hearing Nigel's words, the doorman slightly flashed his cheeks.

The boy lying down is wearing a black, long coat. It seems to be made of materials that are rarely seen around here.

Hmm... I have a cute face, but it looks suspicious to me. And I don't bring any money to pay the admission fee.

Seriously, he's just a suspicious kid.

But... it bothers you a little.

Maybe this kid...

"Oh, I'll wake you up."

Looking at the boy's face, he raised his voice and slowly opened his eyelids.

"Welcome to Lynch Giham. How are you feeling?

Nigel asks the boy a question.

It's a gentle tone, but I'm not lazy.

That's right. This boy is still "just a suspicious person."

Nigel nods in a situation where she doesn't know what to do.

But the boy was calm.

"Lynchgham... I see, I've reached Lynchgham. Are you...?

and voiced.

I suddenly lost consciousness and thought I was awake, surrounded by strangers.

I thought you were in a hurry... but the boy stared straight into Nigel's eyes without fear.

"My name is Nigel. I am the prince of this country."

"Prince...!

The boy's eyes open wide.

And as soon as I tried to get up, I put my hand on the bed frame.

"Please....! Tell me. I heard that there is a good healer in this country. Where the hell is that--"

But when the boy tried to stand up, he was about to fall again on the spot.

"Oh, it's dangerous to get up in a hurry."

On the verge of the boy falling to the floor, I immediately supported his body.

"I'm sorry... what about you?

"It's Eliane. More than that... if you look closely, you're injured everywhere. It hurt, didn't it?

"No, that's not true. I just lost my magic, and I don't seem to have much work to do."

With that gesture, I knew this kid...

Whatever it is, I must cure this child first.

That's when I hear the story.

"I'll be done soon —— heels."

With my knee rested on the boy, I activated the healing magic.

I still don't know what this boy is thinking.

But... this lynching gham has a legend.

That's a lovely phrase: 'If there are people in need, help them.'

This child is not a people of Lynch Giham, but... we can't overlook a child who's so worn out.

"This light....? It feels so good...."

The boy seems pleasant surrounded by holy light.

Then I'll restore your magic.

Still... you did everything you could to get here, your clothes are all dirty, and the boy's appearance is no compliment to me.

I don't suppose she's in the bath either.

But it was strange and the smell of flowers drifted from the boy's body.

"It's over. How do you like it?

"What is this magic...?! I thought it would take a while to restore my magic, but I think it's all healed...?

The boy seemed confused by the surprise.

"Maybe a good healer is... no, maybe you're..."

Ugh ~.

When the boy tried to say something, such an idiotic sound echoed indoors.

"Maybe you're hungry?

"Ah, ahh... maybe I've only been drinking water for the last three days. But this water tastes bad, and I may not even be able to drink it very much..."

When I asked the boy, he nodded shy.

Using healing magic, the run-down boy is as pretty as after taking a bath. The tiredness must have disappeared.

Nevertheless, healing magic is not universal.

As much as I can, I can't get rid of my hunger.

Well, even if I don't eat it, I can live for a month... but I still feel hungry.

"But that doesn't matter now. I have more to do...."

"'I can't do anything when I'm hungry'... don't you know these words?

That's what was often said in the kingdom.

I keep putting my index finger on the boy's mouth trying to say something.

"First of all, I'm hungry." Food "enriches life. It's the first time you're satisfied that you can have a meaningful conversation. Hey, Nigel."

Yeah, that's right.

When he gazed at Nigel, he shook his neck vertically.

"That's right. That's why I'm inviting you."

"Where to?

Nigel said as the boy rounded his eyes.

"To the royal castle"
