"Oh yes sir, may I know what your name is?" Ask Oris.
...****************...
For a moment Sero fell silent thinking about the question from Oris' grandfather. Would it be fine if his name was known to outsiders. He was worried that something bad might happen someday.
"Then call me Cortesius." Answer Sero.
"All right, Mr. Cortesius." Oris
Somehow he felt that he could not tell his real name, until Sero told him a pseudonym. This is done for safety.
Villagers were seen cluttering around packing up all their belongings that the robbers had collected. And the children who were still crying in fear, being hugged by their respective relatives, had a happy smile on their faces. The atmosphere was quite a relief to Sero's heart.
It does not feel like the fight that Sero has been through before took a long time. From the beginning which was still daytime now it was late at night. At that time Oris' grandfather offered Sero something...
"Because it's almost night, what if you stay in this village?" Advice Oris.
"All right, thank you." Answer Sero.
Without a second thought Sero immediately accepted his offer. If it is remembered with Sero's goals that are still far away at this time, then it is unfortunate if he rejects it.
Tibalah Sero at the village chief's house is Oris's own grandfather's house. Oris' grandfather said he lived there with his wife and grandchildren. While in the guest room, Sero is welcome to sit by Oris' grandfather with warm tea and then the conversation took place.
"One more time I thank you very much for your help, Mr. Cortesius." Oris.
"You are so great that you can defeat the robbers alone" Oris said.
"No matter what Mr. Oris, I'm glad to be able to help." Sero Say.
"Thank you, we will no longer starve." Oris.
"So, this village used to have robberies?" Ask Sero.
"Yes, the last time it happened was about two months ago. At that time our situation was very difficult, food and water were very difficult to obtain, even to the point of death from hunger." Oris.
"How many times have you had a robbery?" Ask Sero.
"Five times already. The worst was the first robbery, about two years ago. At that time we were robbed by ruthless robbers, they were nicknamed land hijackers, not only our food and valuables they took, even they had time to torture and kill our brothers. some of the victims were both parents of my grandchildren. Since then we have been starving, and some people have started to die of hunger. It was the worst and most terrible event we've ever experienced." Oris.
"I'm very sorry. But, why since after the robbery you didn't report to the kingdom? the government should be able to help." Sero Say.
"We had already reported to the kingdom at the time, but there was no response from the kingdom. In fact, every time a robbery occurs we always send a letter of assistance, and if there is still no reply we always resend the aid letter. But there was no response at all. The kingdom doesn't seem to care about our fate." Oris.
"So for now, what is the economic condition of this village?" Ask Sero.
"At the moment our economic conditions are like financial very bad. For us money is not so important at this time, when the harvest season arrives we prefer to consume the results themselves rather than selling them, plus the location of the market far from the village. We can't even afford medicine for people who are sick in this village. In addition, sometimes we still feel hungry" explained Oris.
Hearing that the village was having problems, Sero's heart felt moved to help and immediately Sero offered help.
"May I see that sick man? maybe I can help." Sero Say.
"Oh yes, of course Mr. Cortesius." Oris said in surprise.
They immediately went out to meet the person who was. As usual Sero will rely on his knowledge to treat the sick person. It is impossible for his heart to leave or let someone who is in trouble. Until they came to a building where the sick rested.
...********In building********...
Inside, about seven people were lying weakly on a mattress. Facilities there are so inadequate, people use what is there to care for those who are sick. They are being cared for being cared for by their respective families or relatives.
Oris' grandfather explained that there used to be a healer who cared for every sick villager there. He died two months ago of being killed by a robber. Since his departure, they have done little to heal the sick villagers. They could only give away some of the herbs they found in the forest. They can't make or concoct drugs like the healers did before.
"How about Mr Cortesius?" Ask Oris.
"How long has he been sick?" Ask Sero.
"About a week ago." Answer Sero.
Just by looking at the circumstances and symptoms, Sero can conclude that what is experienced by the person is just ordinary heat fever. But even so, the person still needs medication so that the fever does not get worse.
"It looks like the pain he was experiencing was just a normal heat fever. Tomorrow I'll try to make the cure." Sero Say.
"So you're also a healer?" Ask Oris.
"No, it's just that I know the prescription." Answer Sero.
"oh, so it's like that." Oris.
"All right next." Sero Say.
Next Sero examines a young man who had previously been gang-raped by robbers. His body was filled with bruises. Sero examined all parts of his body ranging from head, hands, to feet. By holding, observing and pressing the part of the body he examined. Sometimes the young man groaned in pain when some parts of his body were examined by Sero. It did not take long Sero finally finished checking the wound on his body. The young man did not suffer any serious injuries, only that his left leg bone was broken.
"Mr Oris, are there any leftover pillows here?" Ask Sero.
"Yes, please wait a minute." Oris.
Soon Oris' grandfather picked up a pillow that Sero asked for.
"Here you are, sir." Said Oris while handing over a pillow.
Sero took it, then placed the pillow under the young man's broken leg.
"Stay your feet like this, do not move your legs because the bones have been broken. But don't worry, your legs are still healing." Sero said to the young man.
"All right, thank you." Said the young man.
Then Sero examined the condition of the body of the sick person carefully. Grandpa Oris just followed Sero like an assistant. It seems that people around Sero such as their families or relatives who are sick pay attention to every step Sero takes to examine those who are sick. Sero was finally done with his business. Sero concluded that among the seven sick people were four ordinary sick people, two poisoned people, and one person was only injured as a result of braking.
"Four common sick people, two poisoned people, and one person was only injured as a result of the shaking." Sero said to Oris.
"So what should we do?" Ask Oris restlessly.
"Tomorrow I'm trying to make a cure, so for now just let them rest they'll be fine." Sero Say.
"Thank God then." Oris.
The night has come.
"Because it's night now, how about I show you a place to rest Mr. Cortesius." Advice Oris.
"All right." Sero Say.
They came out of the building to where Sero was going to rest.
...********Welcome********...
Sero followed Grandpa Oris from behind while thinking about something. The village is experiencing difficulties plus robberies that occur quite often. Sero felt that he had to help the village in overcoming the existing problems. Until he decides.
"I have decided, I will make the villagers prosperous and I will heal all the sick." Inner and determination Sero.
What are the next steps Sero will take?
SERIATE....
