Soul Eater of the Rebellion
Episode 79
"Oh ... Sora-san, it's been a long time."
The face of Priest Sarah, who had met again for the first time in about a month, looked terribly pale, with a combination of deep fatigue and deep anxiety.
My daughter smiles at me, but it looks painful. I was guessing from the children's appearance, but it seems to be quite bad.
Priest Sarah explained with a sad face.
"Pharmaceuticals and magic both work at first, but the symptoms recur immediately. Not only that, but the symptoms that recurred are less effective for the medicines and magic that worked before, and finally at all. It will not work. ''
It seems that the disease is growing and evolving in the patient's body.
When I visited this village before, I put not only the antidote made by the union, but also the fruit of Jiraio ox. According to Priest Sarah, the current Ilia has no effect even on Jiraiaoks.
This is definitely a Hydra poison. I thought so and tried to tell the priest what happened in the last few days-hesitated.
It is courageous to tell that the poison affecting her is incurable.
It's like a doctor telling a patient's family that the disease is incurable. The problem here is that I don't have any specialized knowledge or qualifications like a doctor, and the "incurable" part of the essence is just a guess.
Once you say it, you're a yab doctor.
Who would believe such a place, such as "this poison could be incurable"? It's a good idea to be yelled at not to say good things.
If I were a Priest Sarah, I wouldn't just shout at me, but hit me at all.
So, while keeping things quiet, I thought about giving me an antidote (modified) made up of Miroslav's dedication.
But this also has a problem.
According to Miroslav, my blood is the same as herbal medicine. It would be a problem to administer the mixed drug to Iria without any explanation. In the worst case, it can cause fatal damage to the weakened Ilya's body.
However, if you elaborate on that area, you must mention the incurable nature of poison. I need to reveal some of my own secrets.
Both would be a catchy for Priest Sarah.
Dirty I couldn't be foolish in this crisis-imagine yourself being looked down on by the priest in disdain, even in your imagination.
"...? Sora-san, what happened?"
"Wow! Why did you think so ...?"
"It looked so terrible ... so I hadn't heard about the purpose of this visit yet. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me."
After saying that, the priest put his hand on his cheek to be ashamed, as if he had come to his present condition.
Variation "Oh ... you may think it's useless now, but it was still the same priest warrior as Ilia. He's stronger than he looks!"
That said, Priest Sarah makes a lot of bicep.
――I almost intimidated my knees on the spot.
Confession When my daughter is in trouble, I want to be a cute priest who is heartfelt for me.
Nowadays, I'm a poorer man than a goblin, because I don't want to be yelled at me and don't want to see it with contempt.
What I need to do now is cure Iria. What do you need to hesitate when you know it?
Certainly, my guess at Hydra and others is unfounded, but I don't speak falsely. To that extent, there is no reason the priest in front of me can not understand!
"Actually-"
Details I never let my mind go to this day with Priest Sarah.
Priest Sarah, on the other hand, listened with a serious expression all the time.
◆◆◆
After that, I was invited to the room and faced Ilia one-on-one.
Ilia, who heard me via her mother, wanted to talk directly. Priest Sarah was also away.
Iria is upright on her bed.
His gaze was pointed out of the window, not at me. All I can see is the left half of Ilia's face. With that attitude, Ilia gave her a crusty first voice.
"And what are you doing?"
"I just don't know what to say."
I shrug my shoulder and respond to Ilia.
As a matter of fact, he was stroking his heart in his heart.
Until I entered the room, the patient I saw in that village and Ilia's face overlapped in my head. However, if I try to get close, Ilia knows both her attitude and voice. Her first voice was a great relief, as she successfully swept away the illusion that stuck to my mind.
Ilia, who doesn't even know my inner heart, continued to grumble.
"I'm so white. I'm asking why I'm helping me in a grudge. Where I'm dead, you're glad you're joy and won't be sad."
"It's a terrible reputation.
"Hm. So?"
"It's true that you think, but if you die, your children and the priest will mourn. I don't want to see them mourn."
"……Hmm"
With her gaze fixed outside the window, Ilia laughs at her nose as if to ridicule this argument.
The next time Ilia opened her mouth, the topic shifted.
"I've heard a lot from Lars. Did Milo join your clan now?"
"Oh, yes."
"That Miro, though he saved his life on Mount Skim, it was quite straightforward to break up with Lars and get it to you. The one who slammed Lars so much at you. Only those who spoiled Lars and kept me away. ''
"……What do you want to say?"
Punch: "I thought a few times after leaving Ishka. Just looking at the results, Miro's behavior was quite convenient for you. Luna and Miro were both out, and Lars became quite mature. It's almost as if Falcon's sword has disappeared. Everything is exactly what someone was aiming for-is it too much to think like that? "
"Now I can't answer my question."
I try to stay calm and keep my mind tight. Apparently Ilia noticed the connection between Miroslav and me.
Of course, you know you're included in my target.
In fact, Iria has stated:
"I suspect that this poison is the work of someone."
Hear it and frown.
The situation is inevitable even if doubted. I tricked Lars to take Luna Maria and Miroslav and drove Falcon's Sword into a de facto dissolution. If the only surviving Iria in this situation was attacked by a new kind of poison, and I would conveniently appear there and offer a new antidote, yeah, suspicious. I would doubt my involvement even in Ilia's position.
But this is completely unfounded. Denied in a strong tone.
"It's wet. It's true that you don't want to grieve the children and the priest."
I wondered if she would laugh at her nose again, but unexpectedly Ilia nodded.
"I guess"
"……Yes?"
Eyes are pointed to Iria who admits the wet clothes easily.
Ilia shrugged her shoulders as if she were tired.
"I know. Poisons that my mother can't handle are not easy to make, and there's no certainty that they'll kidnap me with kelpies. You'll get around efficiently. ''
So, I know, I know I wasn't involved in this one.
I was suspicious when I knew--
"A little harassment. You're terrible.-No, it's something you've scratched. This kind of remorse is pretty."
"Let's make no comment"
"I don't expect a response."
And Ilia sighed a little.
Condemnation I questioned Ilia's attitude. Knowing the truth, Ilia was even more angry and thought she would do me hard.
Even if you're sick now because of the poison, there must have been a lot you can do before you get poisoned. That could be as much as talking to Lars or Priest Sarah about my plot, even if poisoned. Now I have enough physical strength to talk to me.
When asked, Ilia said bluntly.
"What do you tell me?"
"What do you want to do ...?"
"I can't. There's no proof. There's no proof if you denounce it. I'd have been able to chase you with circumstantial evidence and the power of Hayabusa's sword before, but now And I can't do that, above all, if you hunt me down, you'll seriously kill us. I was afraid of it. "
Remorse The words of Ilia have made Luna Maria heard earlier.
Luna Maria also accepted falling into slavery, seeing through my connection with Miroslav. If I refuse, I won't choose any means. Rather than that-it went and fell into my hands.
Perhaps Lunamaria at that time and Ilia now have the same feelings. Ilia is not as aware of Soul Eater as Luna Maria, so she may not be as urgent as Luna Maria, but Ilia still knows me before. That's why I can recognize my anomaly more deeply than other people.
That fear may have hesitated to counterattack me. I thought so.
When thinking of such a thing, Ilia suddenly begins to cough.
Cough At first, I just coughed a couple of times. However, the next started immediately and there was no sign of stopping at all.
Seeing Ilia's painfully turning back, I suddenly stepped in and suddenly stopped. Ilia wouldn't want to be turned away from me either.
She decides that it is best to call Priest Sarah and tries to leave the room.
However, immediately behind me, the sound of a coughing sound was heard. Looking there, Ilia's hands and mouth are covered with red-black liquid.
Not only that, but she saw Ilia fall down on her bed, twisting her upper body, and rushed to see if this could not be done.
I noticed that I was approaching, Ilia's face turned frightened.
――At that moment, I gasped.
By this point, Ilia had turned her face out of the window. Due to the positional relationship, only the left half of Ilia was visible in my view. Ilia looked at me so I saw Ilia's right half for the first time today.
Words didn't come out at all how to describe it.
Ilia's right half-well, it was terrible.
Rin The left half is the face of Ilia, which I know. A sharp appearance and a beautiful appearance.
However, the right half is totally different. The flesh of the cheeks hangs down gently, and the flesh of the eyes and eyebrows bulges swelling, disfiguring the supposedly beautiful face.
It was exactly the same sickness I saw in that village.
