Chapter 13: Saving Yona (1)

After playing with Yona briefly, we parted ways.

The sun had already set, and the red sunset burned the sky. The current time is 6:24.

When the minute hand passed 25, someone knocked on the library door.

“Who is it?”

I opened the door, but there was no one there. Instead, a notebook was floating in front of it.

“What is this?”

It was an unusual object at a glance.

I was wondering if it was okay to touch it. The light brown notebook floated and entered the library.

“It wouldn’t be dangerous, would it?”

I opened the notebook.

January 17, 1340 in the Solar Calendar

A spot appeared in Yona’s eye. Yona’s nanny, who noticed this, urgently called a priest. But the priest did not know the cause.

January 18, 1340 in the Solar Calendar

Yona suddenly complained of a headache. The black spot in her eye grew larger. It was more noticeable because of our family’s characteristic white eyes. My father is searching for a talented priest. We must be careful because the disease must not spread.

January 19, 1340 in the Solar Calendar

After searching, I found a priest. He was not a saint, but a cardinal-level priest. He began to treat Yona.

January 24, 1340 in the Solar Calendar.

Fortunately, the cardinal’s divine power was effective. Yona’s spots began to disappear little by little. But the headache got worse and worse.

The method he used was to pour enormous divine power centered on Armus…

February 1, 1340 in the Solar Calendar

The treatment is almost over. The spots and headaches have almost disappeared. Yona also regained her complexion. Now it’s the final stage.

February 7, 1340 in the Solar Calendar

Yona collapsed complaining of a severe headache. Her fever suddenly rose to 41 degrees, and the black spot in her eye filled her pupil. Her white eyes turned black.

Despite the cardinal’s efforts, there was no progress.

To make matters worse, the news that she was sick began to spread to the aristocratic world. Furious, my father found the source of the rumor and exterminated nine generations.

Fortunately, thanks to the cooperation of seven other high priests, Yona’s fever began to go down.

I hope she overcomes it well.

“I guess Emily sent it.”

I sat at the library desk and read it carefully. It was hundreds of pages, but the content was not very much, so it was easy to read.

In addition, I was confident in speed reading because I mainly read web novels in my previous life.

As a result, I was able to read it all by staying up all night.

“I have to treat something that even a cardinal-level priest failed. Can I do it?”

After reading the notebook, Yona’s body condition was more serious than I thought.

The novel didn’t go into this much detail.

Her fever goes over 40 degrees, and her arms and legs convulse. In severe cases, she foams at the mouth and loses consciousness.

The most serious thing here is that there is a black spot in her white eye.

Muelia’s white eyes are not just white pupils.

“It’s a special power obtained from the dungeon.”

In the past, the first head of the Muelia family originally had brown eyes, not white eyes.

But after accidentally obtaining a special power in the dungeon, all the people who inherited his blood were born with white eyes.

The power in the eyes is transcendence.

They are born with one talent that transcends humans.

The current head of the family, Delkarmen, was born with the talent of the sword, and Emily was talented in politics.

Yona is young, so I don’t know, but anyway.

Muelia’s pupils are receptors with special powers.

So that’s more of a problem.

“First, let’s think about it step by step.”

There must be a way.

The most common symptoms are headaches and discoloration of the pupils. There are a few diseases that come to mind when you think of these two.

If I look for it with that as the focus, I’ll be able to do something.

“Is time the problem?”

[So Emily’s younger sister, Yona, died of an unknown disease on March 1, 1345 in the solar calendar.]

The date of her death is about 3 months from now. Within that time, I have to find the disease name and treatment method and treat it.

If it’s too late, even if I treat it, she may die young due to weakened energy, so the time is reduced to 2 months.

“It’s tougher than I thought.”

I think I’ll have to focus all my attention on related books from now on.

“Let’s sleep first. I’m so tired.”

Thanks to playing excitedly with Yona, I was sleepy. I tried to resist as much as possible, but it was meaningless.

In the end, I fell asleep on a small desk.

Ring! Ring!

“Ugh. I should exercise and build up my stamina.”

I put a raw bean in my mouth and woke up. When I chewed it, the bitter taste spread and my eyes opened.

It’s a law that I used to use when I was tired in my previous life.

The current time is 7 o’clock

I deliberately set the alarm early because I had something to do in the morning.

Splash.

I washed away my fatigue with hot water. I put on my clothes with half-closed eyes and brewed coffee.

“This is pretty good.”

It was good considering that I made it roughly.

I took the coffee and went to the desk and grabbed the crystal ball.

Since the crystal ball also has a role to find books, I said the names of the diseases I was thinking of in order.

“Find me books related to Asoluf, Kolkan, Mesraf Hongdu.”

Beep. Beep. Beep.

A list appeared on the crystal ball.

I pulled the book cart and took out the related books from the bookshelf. After searching all the way to the second floor, about 30 books came out. And they were very thick.

“Still, it’s better than nothing. If I read one book a day, it’s exactly one month, so let’s read it diligently.”

I had a lot of free time, so I had a lot of time to read books.

I first opened [1121 Asoluf].

-Asoluf is the name of an insect. As the name suggests, if you are bitten by Asoluf, you will have a severe headache and your nervous system will begin to be destroyed.

But don’t worry. Asoluf is a disease that can only be transmitted by Asoluf contaminated with corrupted mana, so the chance of getting it is low. And a healthy adult can overcome it on their own.

Therapeutics in this era are divided into two categories.

The first is to use herbs, like medicine on Earth.

It is a method that is easy to obtain and is often used by commoners who do not have money.

Its use is limited, and its effect is clearly limited, so nobles do not use it often.

The second is the divine power of priests who have been chosen by God.

Divine power basically has the characteristic of being able to restore the human body.

If there is enough quantity, it is possible to heal anyone who has suffered any kind of wound.

It is said that a saint with the strongest divine power can even revive the dead.

Anyway, for that reason, everyone wants to hire a priest, but divine power is a power that only those who are chosen, like magic, can use.

Supply is less than demand, so less than 10% of them can actually be hired.

I’m going to use the first method to treat Yona.

Sometimes there are diseases that divine power doesn’t work on, and I think Yona’s disease is that kind of thing.

It’s not that there’s no chance of winning, so it’s worth clinging to.

“Sigh. If I knew this would happen, I would have focused a little more on Yona’s part.”

The letters are terribly small and dense. I sigh at the appearance that I didn’t care about readability at all.

Sometimes a friend who went to medical school repeated the words, ‘Should I drop out?’ I think I know how he feels.

Creak.

“Hello.”

“Welcome. Miss.”

Today, Emily was first again.

She was holding the political science theory that she had read last time, and on the other side, she was holding coffee.

“I brewed coffee again today, would you like to have some?”

“I’d love to.”

“If you sit inside, I’ll bring you coffee.”

“Thank you.”

I made a lot of coffee in the morning, thinking that Emily might drink it. It can be seen as a reward for lending a craftsman.

“But what are these?”

Emily pointed to the books piled up next to her.

“I checked Yona’s information yesterday. It was more serious than I thought. What did that little child do wrong? These books are a collection of things related to Yona’s symptoms.”

“Oh my. Then I’ll help you too. At a glance, there are a lot of them, so I’ll read the easy books first and summarize them for you.”

I nodded because it wouldn’t hurt.

Anyway, all that’s in here is the disease name, case, and treatment, so it won’t be difficult.

“Then please.”

“It’s about my sister.”

I chose the books to give to Emily and put them on the book cart. Then Emily said she would pull it herself and left.

“Well, she said she would.”

Instead, I went into the room and finished brewing the coffee.

So today was another ordinary day.

The only difference is that the type of books I read during breaks in between changed.

“Ugh, my head hurts.”

My head hurt so much because I was trying to study again.

I rubbed my head and rang the bell.

Ding. Ding. Ding.

People started to leave. Emily, who came out last, borrowed two more books.

It was the book she took from me in the morning.

“Two books borrowed confirmed.”

“See you tomorrow.”

“Yes. See you tomorrow.”

It was hard, but it was easy compared to my previous life when I gave everything to my part-time job.

At least no one curses and I’m not treated like a subhuman.
