Chapter 141: ☆You Came to Threaten, Right?
The medical facility, also called a hospital, exists in a place visible from the academy.
A large facility between Sixth Street and Fifth Street.
This has become a medical facility; it is three stories and the capacity is said to lightly exceed 500 people.
For the population of the royal capital, is the capacity small? It is sometimes said.
But the skill is guaranteed; the speed of healing the body is wonderfully fast.
Medical care performed using magic and medicine overturns the recovery speed that those around expect.
Besides, this being the large hospital alone, small-scale hospitals are dotted around various places in the royal capital, and above all because the skill is good there is no long hospitalization.
In terms of recovering the body, within the Kingdom of Libertonia I do not know a place with better skill than the hospitals of the royal capital.
People who possess recovery skills and such are separate, but in the meaning of a facility coming to the royal capital and having it healed is probably the fastest.
If speaking of other places said to have good skill, the Holy Country of Kail comes up, but...
Entering from the front entrance, inside the figures of medical personnel busily running around can be seen.
Going to the reception counter that is a little calm, speaking the reason for visiting and being allowed to proceed to the back.
Patients housed in the front are mild injuries; patients housed in the back are patients with heavy illnesses.
Because Hirbyde was a mild injury, she is in the building close to the entrance.
Incidentally I heard the butler was housed in the back, so at that time I honestly worried.
I think there is also the result of Roll’s visit, but looking at the energetic figure of the butler I am impressed that it is truly amazing technology.
Climbing the stairs and arriving at the third floor which is the top floor, a corridor with two knights escorting in the back could be seen.
It is natural that escorts are attached to Hirbyde who is visiting the kingdom for the meaning of inspection.
It is easy and good to grasp the location; I end up laughing by myself.
When heading toward the knights the knights noticed that I was walking over, made stern faces, but immediately made surprised expressions and then smiled for me.
What, they were the knights with whom I conversed at the time of the stampede and had escape first.
I also noticed that and smiled, approached, and exchanged words of reunion.
Becoming happy wondering if they safely escaped and survived.
Then speaking the reason for visiting, taking out the certificate of being an instructor of the academy from the magic bag and showing it.
A certificate stamped with the seal of the royal castle is useful in places like this.
There are not many opportunities to use it, but it is a moment of thinking it was good to have it.
The knights carefully confirmed, then nodded and opened the way for me.
When passing through the side we patted each other’s shoulders and promised to drink alcohol.
I was also happy they were alive, and I love drinking alcohol with comrades-in-arms like this.
In the back of the corridor the knights let me through there was only one door; that is probably the room where Hirbyde is recuperating.
I arrived in front of the room; when I lightly knocked a gallant yet fitting voice returned.
"Who is it?"
"The one who ’lifted and carried’ and saved you at the time of the stampede, Raide who is an instructor at the academy. I came to visit; can we meet?"
"...!?"
I deliberately emphasized the lifting and carrying, but will she notice?
I became a little worried, but from inside the room it is conveyed that she swallowed her breath in the atmosphere.
Apparently what I wanted to say was conveyed; the me who noticed that she is a woman should not simply send me away as is.
It is a method I cannot like because it seems like threatening, but to meet it is unavoidable.
Waiting a little for a reply in front of the door, a reply returns in a voice as if nervous while being cautious.
"Please enter inside."
"Thank you."
Opening the door and immediately closing the door so that the inside cannot be seen.
Then in front a bed was arranged sideways, and there was a window so that the outside scenery can be seen from the bed.
On that bed raising the upper body, using the wall as a backrest, and looking this way with a stern face was Hirbyde.
Parting the blue hair in the middle and flowing it back; the face is a little slender, gallant, and cool.
The body type is slender but one can tell it is trained.
Looking only at the face one would not doubt if told a man, but bearing pears on the chest I ended up doubting my eyes.
How did she hide breasts of that size.
It is not a size that can be completely hidden by wrapping with cloth... I thought inwardly but took care so that it does not show on the face.
Sitting on the chair beside the bed I smiled at the face of Hirbyde who was cautious and furrowing her brows while speaking.
"I’m glad you’re safe."
"...What did you come for?"
"I said, right? I came to visit... What are you doing?"
"You came to threaten, right? Hurry up, the worst..."
Hirbyde opened the front-opening type white nightwear, exposed the chest, and looked at me with a disgusted expression.
The beautiful pink nipples were slightly standing; from the impact of opening the chest swayed with a purun.
The shape was not sagging; the firm breasts are attractive.
Probably she thought I came to attack the body using the fact that Hirbyde is a woman as a threat.
I let out a small sigh, stretched a hand to Hirbyde; then Hirbyde trembled her body with a biku.
Then fixing the opened clothes and hiding the chest for her, looking into Hirbyde’s eyes with a serious expression I spoke.
"Don’t surrender your body that easily. Think until the very end; even if a good idea does not come to mind resist."
"You are..."
"Raide; call me that."
"...What did Raide come for?"
"I said, I came to visit."
Smiling and stroking Hirbyde’s head once I sat back in the chair.
Hirbyde made a blank face and was blinking with pachi pachi.
Different from the situation she thought, probably her thinking is not catching up.
If asked whether I want to embrace or do not want to embrace, the true feeling is that I want to embrace.
But I am not a beast to the extent of attacking a woman who dislikes it, you know?
And I am not starving either, and reason is working.
Please do not lump me together with some shitty noble somewhere.
"Um... I’m sorry."
"...Nn? Ah, it’s fine."
"No, but... I’ll be careful."
"...? Ah, please do that. ...Is something wrong?"
Because Hirbyde spoke while looking at my face a little depressedly, I ended up tilting my head.
Thinking perhaps it showed on the face I touched my cheek with one hand; then Hirbyde smiled a little interestingly.
The smiling smile is that of a beautiful woman rather than a man; I feel a little throb.
...Of course avoiding the event, but I end up wanting to lend a hand.
"So, is the body all right?"
"Nn? Ah, it’s fine. The one wounded by the Blue Slime is only this arm."
Saying that Hirbyde raised and showed the right arm wrapped in bandages.
Hearing that it is beginning to heal I breathed a sigh of relief in ease; then Hirbyde giggled enjoyably.
Was there something to be laughed at like that? Tilting my head and looking at Hirbyde’s face I was shaken the head.
I do not really want to make her recall, but there is one thing I absolutely must ask Hirbyde.
"Sorry, I’ll apologize first. If you don’t want to answer, you don’t have to answer. Is experiencing a stampede ’the first time’?"
"...Ah, it’s ’the first time’. That is nothing but fear..."
As expected; the event occurring was too early.
Because of the premature event, the Hirbyde here has not experienced a stampede.
If according to the original story, after experiencing a stampede in the prosperous country of Yurlal she came to the Kingdom of Libertonia for inspection.
But to match the too-early event she came to the Kingdom of Libertonia for inspection without experiencing a stampede.
Therefore she was that scared and unable to move.
Feeling a little responsibility is probably barking up the wrong tree...
Taking a deep sigh in my heart I smiled at Hirbyde who was making a frustrated expression and proposed.
"Hirbyde, won’t you become my student?"
"...Ha?"
"If I say Roy is my student do you understand? I can teach combat techniques and knowledge to a reasonable extent."
"It’s a happy invitation but... there is a person I am making wait."
"You can call them to the Kingdom of Libertonia."
"Impossible... the person I am making wait is a duke’s daughter; she cannot move easily."
At my words Hirbyde smiled regretfully and shook her head.
But Hirbyde’s reaction is within expectations; I had also predicted that the one being made to wait is a duke’s daughter.
Then calling her is simple; it is only using knowledge that can only be obtained in free play.
I grinned and spoke to Hirbyde.
"Tell the duke’s daughter that you found a person who knows the route into the treasure room."
"...!? Why do you know that!?"
"Let’s negotiate, Hirbyde. In exchange for teaching become my student. Well, the teaching is after the duke’s daughter arrives in the Kingdom of Libertonia, though?"
"What is Raide...?"
"Haha, just a tavern owner and instructor."
Hirbyde stared at my face that was laughing enjoyably with a surprised expression; I felt as if someone laughed behind me.
Thinking it is probably Sharle I laughed even more and ended up being stared at by Hirbyde.
