Otome Game Mob Villain

Chapter 400

"Now, Master Rid. Please open your mouth."

Farah said, smiling as she held a teapot-like container that seemed to be full of medicines in her hand.

I also remembered the faint aroma of the medicine.

Aware of the blood draining from my face, I turned my attention to Sandra, who was standing next to her.

"Do I have to drink all of this ......?"

'Yes, of course. It is an extracted and distilled version of the moonlight grass that is expected to have more effect on restoring magic power. Well, it is the 'undiluted' solution before it is made into pills. Since Rainer-sama said it was urgent, I thought this would be the quickest way to get it."

She narrowed her eyes suspiciously and nodded.

Even if it's self-inflicted, I'm still stuck in bed, unable to move my body, and gaping at the situation where I have no choice but to accept the pills.

Then I thought back to yesterday and today.

Just the other day.

Under Father's guidance, a new Body Strengthening Type 2 and intense fire training was conducted.

At that time, I did not stay only with the "Type 2," but also tried " intense fire," driven by curiosity and inquisitiveness, ignoring his advice.

As a result, I succeeded in activating "Physical Reinforcement: Arcane Fire," but in reaction to that, I slept for a whole day without waking up.

Therefore, when I woke up, the mansion was in an uproar.

Of course, that was not the end of it, as I was scolded and complained about by everyone, including Farah, who was worried about me.

Among the many scoldings, the sermon given to me by my father and my mother, who was in a wheelchair, next to my bed, was the one that really soaked into my soul.

I was particularly impressed by the fact that Father did not show his indignation when he spoke, but remained calm and collected.

But on the contrary, it was frightening, and the words stung deeply in my heart.

After a while, when Father finished speaking, he left the room first.

When he was left alone with Mother, he asked, "Why did this happen? Do you understand?"

In the midst of this, I realized once again how much my recklessness this time had caused worry to so many people.

But at the end, Mother patted my head and said kindly,

"Rid. You are loved by many people. Of course, I love you and so does your father. But that doesn't mean you can do anything you want. You are loved by people because you love them. Never neglect those who love you.'

Yes, I am sorry for causing you worry.

"Hmmm. But don't worry. You are little, but you know how to love and care for others. And even though your father and I are angry with you for being so reckless, we are proud of you. Please don't forget that."

"Thank you, ......."

Mother's eyes and words are filled with love and affection, which naturally makes my eyes water.

Even though I turned my face away to hide it, Mother gently stroked my head for a while.

'Phew...... that's right. I should get well soon."

I murmured, and Fara, who was beside me on the bed, nodded with her eyes narrowed.

"That's the spirit. Now, please take your medicine."

"I'll take it. But take it little by little, please."

I flinched a little at her smile and opened my mouth.

The moonlight grass, which is the raw material of the magic restoration medicine, has a terrible taste unless it is processed into pills.

In the past, when I participated in Sandra's clinical trials ...... or experiments, the taste made me faint in agony.

Whether she knew it or not, Fara never lost her smile.

Then, from the teapot containing the potion, she pours it slowly into my mouth.

At that moment, the gagging and stench of the moonlight grass hit me.

It is a taste that surpasses the past and is hard to describe.

"Ugh⁉"

When I let out a moan at the unimaginable taste, the medicine poured from the teapot stopped.

I managed to swallow it without spitting it out, but as expected, I coughed.

'Haa...... haa...... this tastes terrific.'

'It seems so. The report of Bizica and his group also stated that Rast-kun, who cooperated in the clinical trial, fainted in agony at the taste. But the effects are guaranteed."

Sandra replied coldly with a smile.

I see, Rust, you tasted this, too.

Rust is the brother of Sheryl, a werewolf who is a division leader in the second knighthood.

He suffers from the same "magical power depletion" as Mother, and is currently cooperating in a clinical trial at the Renalute research institute.

Thanks to you, Rust, the research being done at Renalute is progressing smoothly.

Well, I think he is doing well with Bizika, a doctor who is not a mad scientist ...... but a man of curiosity and inquisitiveness, and Nikkiak, a pharmacist.

Somehow, just hearing that some of the kids had already experienced this taste made me feel a little more relaxed.

But I soon realize that it was all in my mind.

"Master Rid. With all due respect, you have not yet drunk half of it. Besides, as the old saying goes, 'good medicine tastes bitter in the mouth. Your decision to drink it alone must be shaky. I, as your wife, will be very serious and help you. Now, let's go at once to dispel everyone's worries."

Fara said, and then she relentlessly brought a teapot full of medicine close to her mouth.

E......⁉ No, no, no, wait, wait...... ugg⁉"

'I'm sorry," hI have waited long enough for Master Rid to wake up. Besides, waiting is not enough to make you healthy".

Fara's smile never wavered.

She remained ruthless and continued to give me, who was unable to move, medicine endlessly and mercilessly.

Even Sandra's face turned pale at her completely different behavior and atmosphere from usual.

Asuna, who witnessed the whole thing up close and personal, later recounted the following.

"Princess showed me her cold and heartless behavior. Her behavior reminded me of Eltia-sama's. I knew the two of them were mother and daughter. I was convinced of that "

I swore to myself secretly that I would be careful not to offend Fara.

◇

After a few days of being cared for by Sandra and Fara.

Thanks to them, I feel better, and at the medical examination Sandra went to, she said, "Yes. It's all right now," and was given the diagnosis that there was no problem.

Based on the results of that medical examination, I received permission from my father to return to my life as before and to my official duties with the Second Order.

And when I visited the accommodation for the first time in several days, accompanied by Farah and Diana, I was very concerned by the beastmen children I passed by.

Apparently, they had heard from the maids who came in and out of the house that I had fallen asleep.

Then, Fara let out a deep sigh.

"Oh, my God. How many people were worried about Master Rid? You really should reflect on that."

'Haha ....... I'll be careful not to do anything reckless like that again."

Fara seemed still angry, her mouth agape and turned away.

I chuckled at her and continued on my way, and arrived at the office of the accommodation.

Probably Capella is doing the paperwork for me.

Thinking so, I knocked just to be sure before entering the room.

"Welcome back, Master Rid. I'm glad to see you are safe and sound."

Capella bowed as soon as I entered the room.

No, no. I'm sorry for worrying you. "

I asked him to raise his head, then stepped forward and sat down on the chair at his desk.

"So, have you had any problems while I've been out of bed for a couple of days?"

'No, nothing in particular, However, I did receive this envelope for Master Rid."

Capella picked up an envelope on his desk and held it out.

When I received the envelope, my brow wrinkled involuntarily when I saw the name of the sender.

It is from Valerie in the ...... imperial capital."

I have been exchanging letters with her on a regular basis, but this is not one of those times.

It would mean that there was something of interest going on in the imperial capital.

I picked up the paper knife on the office desk and carefully opened the envelope.

Then, taking out the letter inside, I began to read through the contents.
