"Hey, sweetheart, it's okay."

"Are you okay, Me? Here, I made you an itch, so eat slowly."

"Hot. I can't eat this."

"Oh, I'm sorry.Come on, fu, fu.Yes, I think it's a bit cold, so slowly put it in your mouth. "

More time has passed since we came to Vulcan village.

I met Mr. Alphonse in the autumn and he brought me here, but I've already passed the year and celebrated the New Year.

It was quick.

It's hard to study every day, but I'm hungry and never fall.

It's cold and doesn't tremble.

I wonder what makes me so happy.

But I'm a little worried.

It's about me.

Recently, my sister, Me, was getting sick.

I have had a fever since this morning and I didn't get up.

Dr. Ai asks me to rest until I get better if I am not feeling well, so I can sleep slowly.

I'm glad to get out of the ghetto just because I can eat itch and take care of my illness like this.

But I'm worried.

I feel like I'm getting more fever and falling asleep today.

That shouldn't have happened before.

Both I and I were concerned about health.

Otherwise, you wouldn't have survived such a poor life.

I wonder why I feel so ill now that I can lead a better life.

When I finished eating the itch, I woke up my body and used the life magic called [washing].

My body became clean in an instant.

However, I took off my clothes once and wiped them with a cloth.

That's because my body was sweating, as I said it was hot.

This village with the statue of the King of the Sky doesn't feel very cold at this time of the New Year.

However, if you perspire, your body will get cold.

Carefully wipe your sweat and put it back into the futon.

I didn't think I had any particular problems with the body I just saw.

The flesh is better than when I was in the ghetto.

The caressed body also had firm flesh and looked healthy.

And yet, why does it get so hot?

"Shall I see Dr. Eye again later?Get well soon, Me. "

Say that to save my hair on my forehead and put a wet cloth on my forehead.

"It's no use. That kind of nursing won't cure his body."

"Haah. I was surprised.What, Master Norn? How long have you been there?

When I was looking at my sleeping face, I was suddenly surprised to hear a voice from behind.

I was so surprised that I accidentally flew like a cat.

While holding his heart pulsating like a bump from above his chest, he turned his face towards the back of his voice, and there was Norun.

I occasionally see Norun in this Vulcan village.

Walking in bright red armor.

I sometimes train with mercenaries.

I still don't know what this person is.

However, it was clearly treated differently from ordinary mercenaries.

I have seen Alphonse, Ian, and Dr. Ai talking to each other several times.

I'm sure they're executives in this Vulcan mercenary regiment.

But sometimes I don't see it at all, and most importantly, I've never seen the face under the armor.

I don't know what kind of person he is, and the voice that talks to him sounds a little creepy in his armor, so it is our common perception of an orphan that he is still unfamiliar.

"That's him, isn't it?You're the mixed-blood daughter of the Beast, right?

"Beast? Mixed blood?Me?

"That's right. A cat-like man who once lived on Magic Continent.You're his descendant, aren't you?

"Chi, no.I was my sister and our parents were normal people. "

Then it must be a mixed blood.I saw cat ears and tails growing.It's a common feature of ancestral returns. "

"Ancestors, are you returning?

"Yes, it's the return of our ancestors.The mix of beast and human blood that used to be on Magic Continent was born with that kind of trait.And most of them got fever and died prematurely, just like they do now. "

... dead?

Well, what do you mean?

I certainly began to experience physical changes.

Is that related to your current illness?

If you say so, it's not that there are no clauses that come to mind.

I've been fine until now, Me.

I began to get sick after I was able to make physical changes.

That cute cat ear and cat tail.

I've been training since then, and I've been practicing to pull myself in and out.

Does that have anything to do with it?

Are you sure about that?

"Yes, I didn't say that.Is that true, Master Norn?

"You don't know anything about that doll, do you?Looks like he doesn't know what this kid's symptoms are.But I've seen them like this many times before.There's no mistake. "

Oh no...

If there is a physical change in my body, it will help Alphonse.

That's what I thought, but what makes you think you're going to die prematurely?

I heard Norn's words and looked at Me in a hurry.

Now she is sleeping gently, but her face is sweating again.

I just wiped it.

Well, it's not like I can't help you.

"Oh, really?

"Oh, not normally, but I'm here now.But I can't do it alone.I'm gonna need your blood, that kid and sister. "

"Blood...?I see. If my blood helps me, I'll do anything.Please, Mr. Norn.Please help me and my sister. "

I beg you to rest on Norn's feet.

Hard armored feet.

He lowered his head by his feet and prayed for me to be saved many times.

Then Master Norn gave me my wish.

Laughing joyfully, he reached out to me and said, "Okay, I'll help you."
