OHOOKS
"Miss!" Halley's screams began to echo in my ears. Ugh, this is so painful, why is it that just a mouthful of water is enough to make myself in pain like this!? Wait, what is... poison?
Right at that very moment, I began to feel pain, the hot flames were eating away at my body. This is no ordinary poison, if I don't stop drinking that water as quickly as possible, it could be that now I
Drapp...
"Miss! hey, healer, check on the lady right now!" halley shouted as she grabbed my hand that felt so cold. I could feel her breathing so fast, her cold sweat started to make me feel like I was going to fall asleep, falling asleep for so long.
PLAKKKK
"OHOOK-O!!" not yet, I closed my eyes, the man directly slapped my cheek very strongly. "What are you doing!?" riana shouted in shock. "Don't let, miss sleep, we can lose her now" he said briefly as he removed the cloth from his right hand. Started staring hard at me. Ah, is he going to use his Manna? I thought I was silent.
SRINGGG
"Well, I can't lose that kid. If she loses herself so soon, my plan may fail in the future"
That cold voice started to move his chess pawn. Glanced sharply at the board with the dominant color of black and white. Every now and then, he started to smile.
"Well, of course, my precious jewels can't die so soon."
OHOOOK
Right at that very instant, I began to feel a pain that slowly began to stab in my body. And no kidding, I immediately vomited a lot when it would be treated by a healer. "Hey, little boy, strengthen yourself."
Huh uh? This voice..Where did it come from? I thought while pressing my body. Trying to endure the pain. "Miss!!" I heard Halley's voice calling my name. The doctor started using his magic on me. But the heat is getting worse. Making my gaze feel so heavy, all the sounds sounded so resounding to my ears.
"You still have a lot of work to do after this."
SRAHHH
A strong wind began to blow fiercely into this food warehouse. Slowly, I started to blow my hair back. "Ohok-Ohook!"
Without further ado, I immediately coughed, spitting out a lot of blood that didn't even know how much. But, that mounting pain was enough to make me remember something. I think I'm going to die.
"I'm going to go find a healer!" riana shouted while running towards the outside. Halley continued to put on a worried face, she continued to plead with the western royal patron, hoping that I would escape these times of crisis. "Miss, hang on." said the man while casting his magic trying to neutralize my chaotic condition.
Hok... Ohoks...
After a while, I started to stop spewing blood mixed with the poison. But the pain has not disappeared completely. Nonetheless, I can breathe a sigh of relief, I think I have already taken out all the poison, I managed to survive. Although, this is painful, an event like this is nothing compared to the day I died.
I'm not gonna die twice just because of something like this.
"Halley, bring me a clean cloth and stop Riana from bringing the healer here" he said briefly, patting her on the back. "If, people knew the head chef let the poison be in the cuisine here, it could be, the Marquez family would look bad in the eyes of the nobles"
Halley began to nod her head, walking away from us. This man went away for a moment, carrying a glass of water for me. Are you crazy? I just got poisoned, for drinking a glass of water. "Drink this water, miss. Servant does not want the condition of the lady getting worse" he said slowly while handing the water to me.
"By the way, introduce, my name is Ellios, I'm a healer here"
"I used to be poisoned. But, I was fine at that time said royal physician"
Royal physician? He went to the palace, only to be treated for poisoning!? thought I didn't believe it. "So don't be afraid, drink this, lady will be fine" he continued, trying to calm myself down. My hand was still shaking from the pain.
The man began to pat me gently on the shoulder again, helping me to drink the water in the glass. "Haha, that day, I also couldn't hold my glass well because of the pain, good luck, my older sister helped me back then"
I started glancing at him, why did he tell me this? Is he trying to calm me down? I thought I was silent. "Then my brother said, if you can't get through this, how are you going to become a healer?"
I fell silent, has he been since childhood wanting to become a healer? my question is in my heart. Is it because of the words of his brother, as well as the help of the royal healers who managed to help him from times of crisis. "But, compared to you, I'm sure, you must have been through a lot, so fight!" he said cheerfully while giving me a little support.
Ah, these words. How long ago I didn't hear it I thought I was silent. Are these words from mom or Felix? Ah, right too, it's from myself. When, I look in the mirror, I often say, "You've been through a lot, so, you can definitely get through this! Fight Park Eun Jin!"
Haha, I don't believe this. Heard words like this from others. Isn't this my first time. "Ma'acih!" I said while laughing. The man started smiling kindly at me. It seemed, this man was indeed a noble. If, he was to the point of being cared for in the palace, it meant that he was the son of an important noble in the kingdom.
"In addition to being a center of learning for young knights, Marquez's residence was often made a place of learning for royal healers"
Ah, right, the Marquez family is famous for the talented people in it. In fact, the butler in this place is not just anyone who can be met by others. Now, I understand why he came here.
He was about to learn from Marquez's home healer who was famous for their immense healing abilities. He has a clear purpose. Perhaps, the two of us will often meet in the future. Well, even if I make it out of my horrible room.
"I have to, clean this blood first, do you mind?" ellios asked briefly while lifting my body for a moment. I shook my head, slowly, he began to sit me on a sack of rice. Carrying a clean cloth on his hand, then, darkened the blood mixed with the poison.
"Truly, when the servant met the lady, the servant was slightly startled. Appearance, miss is very similar to the great master Marquez.
I fell silent, well, this is not the first time I have heard such a remark. Many said my face was quite similar to that vile man. A pretty face with a bluish sapphire is like a jewel. The Marquez family has its own characteristics, which sometimes makes some residents think we are just old legends buried with great wars between kingdoms.
How not, pale white skin with bluish sapphire. It was a very step in the western kingdom. Ah, not really, compared to Duke's exit. They have black hair, it's more step than us. Well, well, the Duke family, they are also important nobles here.
Equivalent, with the Marquez family having the nickname as a white tiger in the kingdom. They had the nickname purple-eyed crow, it was because the Duke family mostly had blackish-purple eyes. In accordance with their names.
The noble family did not hesitate to attack his opponent until the end of their breath. The family grudge must be kept in check. Evidently, from the Duke's current older sister, he lost his life due to his determination to kill his younger sister.
Power struggles.
And even worse, the Duke's current son, will become my lover.
This is all because of the foolish actions of Mr. Marquez. He made his daughter into his chess pawn.
This political marriage was planned from the beginning.
"Miss, have you ever heard these words?"
"If you knock on a silver shoe 3 times, you'll get to where you want to go"
Huh, what is he talking about?
"Surely, I don't believe in things like this, but - after I met you, I became aware of something"
"Otherwise, the help you get, if your determination doesn't exist, it's the same as running aimlessly"
I was silent, I had indeed heard those words. But why did he tell you this? Is he interested in me, because I made him think of his old days?
"You made me think of my sister" he said again.
Hum, this guy, he keeps telling me things that have nothing to do with me. What is he trying to tell me? The man silenced me, like he wanted to say something but he was holding it. "Haha, forgive me servant, keep telling me unimportant things, but, that is far sure-"
"You're the toughest person I've ever met in this kingdom!" cheerful reply.
Hum, although he talks a lot, at least he's not as noisy as Felix or Alex. "Haha, ma'acih!" I reply briefly while laughing. I am no stranger to that compliment. Because, tough in my dictionary it's like my daily food.
SRAHHH
Sensed, a strong gust of wind began to blow softly on that blackish long hair, leaving a moody look on his face. "That boy, did he make a mess again?" he said while pulling the cloth high, the desert that feels hot can only silence his words.
"He was an explorer as well as one of the best knights in the kingdom."
"I have found out for myself about it and I can assure you, this man is capable of fighting the rebels, sir" the man said, saluting the man before him.
"Hum, okay..."
"Bring the woman to me, make her the shield of the western kingdom, she will not dare to go against my direct orders."
"If, he doesn't want to. Kill his sister."
.........
"You have to see my brother, he's the best knight I've ever known!" ellios is cheerful.
...Seriate......
