In front of Kenneth's house, several men were arguing out loud.

Kenneth's father is in front of the door. Talking to him is a short, bald brown robe man on the top of his head. Next to it is a tough man with a sword down on his leather armor. Is that a bodyguard?

And three more behind it. I didn't know the gender or age because I was wearing the same color robe from my head as a bald man.

"Anyway! My son is sick and he doesn't want to see anyone right now! Please go home!

I can hear Kenneth's father roughing up his voice.

The bald man was still eating after saying something, but he was licked by a skin-armored man, leaving Kenneth's house with a tenderness and walking toward the entrance of the village. Perhaps the carriage at the entrance belonged to them.

Kenneth's father remained royal to block the door until they were invisible. After hearing the hooves and seeing that they were gone from the village, Taketto finally approached his father, who opened the front door to return to the house.

"What's wrong? They want to see you, too, Kenneth?

"Ah... that's right."

Kenneth's father strokes his jaw with a dark face.

"Everything seems to be from the Goddess Church. Forest Cat is the object of their faith. I wanted to see you at first sight, so I asked you to let me talk to Kenneth. Unfortunately, Kenneth has been sick and asleep since last night."

"Eh... Kenneth, are you...?

Last night, after the tukets met. If that's the reason, I think I got worried about my condition on my face. Kenneth's father,

"Yes, no. Never mind. She has a weak body and often has a fever."

When I said that, Kenneth's mother came out in a hurry from behind. The neighborhood below my eyes is thicker than when I saw it yesterday, and I feel like it's broken. I've been taking care of my son all night and maybe he hasn't slept.

"You. Kenneth's fever is so intense... I never thought it would get so bad."

"Nah, what...! Call the village chief right away....."

"I'll call you. I was just on my way home to take care of the village chief."

As Taketo told him, he ran to the village chief's house.

"Please!

The voice of my father flew in from behind.

When I went to the village chief's house, he was just about to put up a lamp that lit the front door of the house.

I was surprised by the running tackle, but when I heard about Kenneth from the tackle, I went back inside with butterflies. And when he came out a few minutes later, he had an old leather bag in his hand.

Returning to Kenneth's house with the village chief, he was immediately guided by his parents into Kenneth's room.

Kenneth was lying on a small bed by the window. The young face is red, and there is a lot of sweat on the forehead. I didn't know if I was asleep or awake because my eyes were closed, but my breathing seemed rough and painful.

The village chief immediately opens his bag next to Kenneth's bed and takes out a trumpet-shaped wooden cylinder on one side. And when I opened Kenneth's shirt, I touched the trumpet directly into my chest and put the other side in my ear. Looks like a stethoscope.

After that, I was measuring the fever and palpating, but when I finished checking, I put Kenneth's shirt back on and gently put on a blanket, and I left Kenneth's room without saying anything.

Confirming that his mother had closed the door to Kenneth's room, the village chief turned to his parents and opened his mouth in an unspeakable manner.

"This one is different from the usual fever. Probably endemic lung disease in the region."

You can see the two of you breathing.

"So, Kenneth....! Kenneth will heal...!?

My father barely ate the village chief and roughed up his voice. However, the village chief did not change his expression, which seemed painful, but remained silent. That was the story of the low cure rate of the disease.

"Oh no...."

My mother couldn't hear me and she broke down crying with both hands. Father bends over and gently holds her shoulder. It was clear, however, that he was also biting his lips hard and feeling pity.

Heavy air fills the room.

Nobody could open their mouth for a while. However, the silence is broken by the voice of the village chief "... speaking of which".

It was his father who reacted immediately to the voice.

"Is there anything... you can do to cure it!?

"No... well... it's not going to work."

When his father stood up with Ba, he stopped by the village chief.

"Anything is fine. If there's any chance of survival! Tell me! What should I do!

The village chief still seemed lost, but was pushed by his father's enthusiasm and hesitated to open his mouth.

"When I went to the city of Tittalt a while ago, I met an old doctor. That's when I heard from you and that man. Medicines made by some doctors work well for high fever. When I followed my acquaintance's handler to get it and used it, he said it had a remarkable effect. I don't know if the man still has the medicine, and even if you divide it, I don't know if it will help this disease... I don't know, but that's all...."

"Please!!! Give that medicine to my Kenneth too!!!

The father shook the village chief's shoulder with both hands. Shaken by a tight wooden father, the village chief's body is toyed with.

Beyond that, it seemed dangerous, so Taketo grabbed his father's arm and took him.

"... please calm down. I know how you feel."

That's what Taketo said, and my father returns to me happily.

"I'm sorry...."

When I let go of the village chief, I lowered my head deeply.

"Please. If you can't, you can't. But you can't stay here and do nothing! If it's money, I'll have all the baskets we have. If it's not enough, I'll do whatever I owe you!

Next to it, her mother lay down her head with her face wet with tears.

"But... if I go to the city now, even if I run without resting on a horse, it's only half a day. Half a day back. It will take a day together. That disease is characterized by rapid progression. The symptoms have already progressed that far. I don't know if I'll have one more day...."

That's why my mouth became cloudy.

The city of Tittart stopped by before the tackles even came here. Indeed, it took about half a day from there to here.

But that's because there's a big lake lying between the city and this village, so we have to go far. I remember seeing the map many times when I came here. If it was a straight line distance, it shouldn't have been that far.

"Um... that. Shall I go?

With that one word from the tacket, eh...? and saw a tacket together.

When I get noticed, I get annoyed, but when I say it, I can't open it anymore.

"Ulu... the Fenrir we rode on allows us to swim across the lake. And if you run at full speed, you should be able to come back much shorter than if you were going by carriage."

"Then I'll....!

To Chante, the tacket returned with a small smile.

"Chante, wait with the village chief. It's getting dark. I cool down at night, and I use a lot of physical strength to ride a full speed wool. I'll be there."

If so, it would be better if it were done as soon as possible. The tacket set out for the city of Tittart at once.
