Chapter 67
"Miss Florentia......"
Estira hugged me tightly.
"I was very surprised to receive the letter."
It had been a long time since I had seen Estira, tears were flowing around her eyes, whose appearance had become more mature.
"So, the task of researching the drug Tlenbrew......"
Estira muttered as if she realized it, but when she saw the two brothers and sisters, Clerivan and Louryl standing behind me, she quickly covered her mouth.
He was worried that others would hear him.
"It's been a long time, Esti."
I said while pointing at the people behind me.
"It's Clerivan and Louryl."
"This is the first time we've met. I'm Louryl Dillard."
"Eh, I'm Estira."
When Louryl, who was my servant, but with the Aura of nobility, greeted him politely, Estira did not know what to do.
Then Clerivan greeted Estira.
"It's been a long time, Miss Estira."
Estira also lived in the Lombardy house, so she was already acquainted with Clerivan.
But at that time Clerivan was still my teacher.
Not as a Florentian 'person.
"It's okay, you can talk comfortably in front of these two people."
"Yes......"
Despite nodding, Estira still looked awkward.I saw them glancing at each other.
First I took them to the living room prepared for Estira.
“Wah, I don't need a fancy room like this, Miss!”
"No. Estira is my guest. And I've set up a separate lab. I plan to put it near Dr.'s lab. O'Malley, but I just made it so it may not be fully ready. That okay?"
"Yes thank you."
Estira stared at the stranger at the luxurious guest room.
"I want Estira to take care of my father until his condition improves."
Estira's eyes changed on my words and nodded firmly.
From the moment I saw Estira, I kept thinking about the question I wanted to ask.
"So...how was your research?"
We've exchanged letters from time to time, and I've been aware of his progress estimates.
Lastly, Estira's letter contained concerns about the proportion of drugs.
And after receiving my letter announcing my father's plague, Estira wrote that she would soon leave the academy.
A whole week passed after that.
I just hope Estira comes with the cure.
"Are you making the medicine?"
Instead of answering, Estira instead opened her beloved bag and stirred up the contents.
With clenched hands, I felt the waiting time was endless.
"Here you go, Miss."
Estira held the dark green liquid in a small glass bottle.
"It's......."
"Yes, that's the most effective combination I've ever found."
"Yes......."
With a short breath, my body staggered.
"Miss Florentia!"
"Miss!"
If it wasn't for Clerivan catching me quickly, I would have fallen to the floor already.
"Are you okay?"
Clerivan asked in a worried voice.
I muttered to Clerivan with no time to answer.
"Thank you......."
I'm so glad there's a cure.
i'mfrightened.
Even though it's the future I already know.
I was so scared of losing my dad again.
"Miss......."
Louryl calmed my trembling shoulders.
"It's not over yet. We have to give Mr. Gallahan a dose of the experiment first."
"How long until the cure works?."
"We'll know in two days."
"You must be tired, but can you meet my father now?"
"Of course, Miss."
Estira happily said and packed some medicine and books together.
* * *
"No no!"
"Gee."
It frustrates me.
Heard the words that Dr. O'Malley, I finally sighed
This is how something like this starts.
When I brought Estira to my father, at the same time grandfather called Dr. O'Malley to treat my father's indigestion.
That's the kind of complication that comes with the amount of activity dropping sharply.
Dr. O'Malley who saw Estira instantly changed her face.
A year later, his bad feelings did not seem to go away.
And when I explained the situation and Estira took out the bottle, Dr. O'Malley left like that.
"Unverified medicine! And a medicine made by a young novice!" shouted Dr. O'Malley's.
"How can you give it to Mr. Gallahan?"
Maybe he realized where he was now, his voice became smaller, but Dr. O'Malley's still angry.
"you're too noisy, Doctor."
Finally, I heard a word from my grandfather who frowned.
"Ha, but, Lord. It's really dangerous."
said Dr. O'Malley, turned his head and looked at Estira.
"Did you say your name was Estira?"
"Yes, I am Estira, who by the bounty of the Lombardy family, is researching in the Academy, Lord."
"So, it just so happens that the research you're working on at the Academy is Tlenbrew's medicine?"
Grandpa's sharp eyes turned to Estira.
"Yes, right. In fact, when I studied other diseases, I found that the combination I made was finally effective in Tlenbrew."
"But Gallahan happens to have Tlenbrew's disease."
"I heard the story about the disease in a letter sent by Miss Florentia. How can I remain silent for Lombardy?"
"Thank you for coming all this way."
Breaking the tense atmosphere, my father said.
"What is the drug made of?"
"The main ingredient is a medicinal herb called 'Rozen', and it is a medicine that is a mixture of several medicinal herbs. Here's the list."
Estira showed me the list without hesitation, and my father read it.
Dad read a lot of books and had a lot of knowledge, so he had a good knowledge of herbs.
"There are many herbal names I've never seen before."
"If you look for it in this book here ......"
"If possible, may I borrow the book for today?"
"Oh, of course, saha."
At my father's request, Estira nodded.
My father put away the book and said calmly.
"Actually since this morning my left leg feels weird. Maybe......"
"Ekhem."
Grandpa spilled his voice.
"So, as my heart grew impatient, I heard this news ......"
My dad saw that little bottle.
"No!"
Dr O'Malley shouted and intervened.
"For the sake of Mr. Gallahan's safety, I can never allow as a family doctor!"
He said this for my father's safety, but how could I see the fear on the doctor's face?
Is it possible that he is worried about losing his place?
Despite the humiliation, Estira remained calm.
He showed everything he had and retreated so that my father could make a choice.
"Medicine from a pharmacist who hasn't even trained well! it's Dangerous!"
The doctor pointed his finger at Estira.
"Trust me, and it is wise to treat the symptoms slowly!"
Then my dad looked at me.
As if asking for my opinion.
"There is no other medicine."
Everyone looked at me with my words.
"I mean, I want you to trust Estira's drug."
I knew this medicine was the only cure for my father's illness.
But I didn't push myself from the beginning because I wanted to make sure my father would try the cure.
"Okay, let's do it."
Dad's worries don't last long.
"Please, Estira."
"I'll do my best, Mr. Gallahan."
Estira bowed deeply.
"It's a silly decision! You'll regret it!"
Dr. O'Malley slammed the door and walked away.
And that day, my father took the first medicine.
* * *
"What do you mean now? What do you mean the cure didn't work?"
I can't believe my ears.
Whahuh?
"......It's not entirely ineffective, but it's only half as effective as intended."
Estira said with her eyes closed.
"Sorry, Miss...."
"It is impossible ... It can't be ......"
You can't do that.
Estira must have made the cure, so my father who took it should have recovered.
"How can......."
And at that moment the alarm went off in my head.
Estira's drug may be different from the drug in my previous life.
Evidently, Estira was younger and had less research experience than back then.
So much has changed.
I can't see clearly yet.
That's when I stared blankly at one place.
Brak!.
The door opened and Clerivan jumped in.
"Angenas mimics the apparel business!"
"I'm sorry?"
"Angenas is trying to get approval from His Majesty the Emperor to run a clothing store business in the West!"
"Crazy people......"
The apparel business is currently set as a specific description of our Gallahan clothing store.
There was no patent, but it was Gallahan's Lombardy business, guaranteed by the Emperor because my father was awarded the Founder's Medal for apparel.
Knowing that well, Angenas also tried to obtain permission from the Emperor.
"Being greedy and not knowing their place, they will perish"
The ready-to-wear business at Gallahan's clothing store wasn't just created by my father's skills.
It was the result of the Top negotiations, textiles, and personal connections of the Lombardy family.
Angenas can never imitate it.
"Clerivan, now ... ... "
When I was just about to give Clerivan instructions, the door opened again in a loud voice.
"That!"
"That!"
They are Shananet's twin brothers.
They rushed towards me and hugged me tightly, with faces filled with tears and runny noses.
"Why are you two?"
"Hey, I heard it. Uncle Gallahan......"
"It's Tlenbrew disease..."
My father's illness is a secret that no one knows except those very close and Dr. O'Malley's.
I asked while holding the twins' shoulders.
"Where did you hear that?"
"There's a rumor in the mansion."
"We heard the servants say."
Damnit.
If the employee made a fuss, it meant that everyone in the mansion already knew.
