20.

“Abel?”

But no matter how long I waited, Abel did not get out of the way. Instead, he looked at Lauren with a pouty face.

“Why are you standing there?”

Lauren was momentarily speechless. Are you asking because you really don’t know? He spoke again.

“We need to feed Richt some soup and medicine.”

“so?”

“yes?”

“I can do that too.”

really? I almost asked back. When I thought about the attitude he had towards sick people until now, I felt anxious.

‘Even if your leg was broken, didn’t you drive me out to die in the gym? ‘You scolded me for making me sleepy because of your skills, right?’

It was something to be proud of.

“What are those eyes?”

Lauren slowly lowered her head at Abel’s words. She was trying to hide her eyes. Abel looked at Lauren as if it were funny, then she turned her gaze to Licht. She was moaning and looking like she was suffering, so I thought it would not be easy to feed her soup. I tried shaking her to wake her up, but she showed no sign of waking up.

“I think it would be better to give him medicine first to bring down his fever.”

Well, it looked like he couldn’t even swallow the soup. Without thinking much, I picked up a bowl of medicine instead of soup, but this is also a liquid. Could a sane person drink this? When I put it to my mouth, half of it spilled.

After thinking for a moment, Abel swallowed the medicine himself. Lauren was horrified and lamented that they were now taking her patient’s medication, but what she had imagined did not happen. Abel exceeded Lauren’s imagination.

He supported Richt’s body with one arm and pressed his lips to his dry lips. Then he started passing the medicine that was in his mouth. Lauren’s eyes widened as she looked at him. He resisted the urge to scream at any moment.

“Yes.”

Although it was clearly just an act of handing over medicine, it was embarrassing to open my eyes and watch. No matter which way you looked at it, it looked like a kiss.

After pouring all the medicine in his mouth, Abel lightly patted Richt on the back. Although she made a groaning sound, it seemed like she had swallowed all of her medicine properly. As Abel, who had laid Licht down again, lifted her up, Lauren opened her mouth, which had been glued to her the whole time.

“You said you’re not into men!”

“What bullshit.”

“Just now, just now!”

“This is medical practice.”

It’s also shameless. But I couldn’t think of anything to retort. Lauren gaped at her mouth a few times and then finished biting.

“How long are you going to stay here?”

The message was to go out and work. And the job was to organize information from the imperial palace that was coming in. Lauren looked at Abel with a suspicious look and then went out. Only after he was gone did Abel lick her bitter lips with her tongue.

It was clearly a bitter medicine, but it felt sweet for a moment. Abel’s eyes turned to Richt’s moist lips. Even though her lips were pale and had lost their color, they looked quite ugly, probably because they were wet. My sex drive soared.

‘I don’t like men.’

Abel rubbed Richt’s lips with his thumb.

‘Maybe it’s because he looks so pretty.’

There are parts that stimulate sexual desire.

‘Have I been starving too much lately?’

The opponent is the younger brother of Empress Maia and the head of the Devine family. Even Abel knew how to keep good. So he just left the room. He was planning on snatching up a suitable woman and embracing her.

A sound came from the bedside.

[They say it hurts now.]

[I guess I’m weak.]

[Shouldn’t I eat something?]

[How about the leaves of Ginness?]

[Why is that?]

[It is said to be effective in reducing fever.]

[good!]

Then I heard the sound of wings flapping, and the wind passed over my hot forehead. When I opened my eyes to the coolness, I saw an unfamiliar ceiling. When I turned my head and looked toward the sound, I saw two spirits.

‘What about the other four?’

Before I could ask, the spirit spit out information.

[I went to look for the leaves of Genis.]

[They say it’s good for reducing fever.]

“know.”

[Did you hear?]

“huh.”

At first, I thought they were annoying, but when I saw them giving it to me, they seemed cute. A spirit is definitely a comfortable being to have around. As I looked at the spirits, I recalled my last memory.

I remembered being caught by Abel. After that, surprisingly, nothing came to mind.

‘Once I see it’s alive, I don’t think I’ll kill it right away.’

No one puts someone they want to kill lying in bed. Richt let out a hot breath and adjusted his posture.

There was no one in the room except Richt and the spirit. I struggled to raise my upper body and looked around to see the soup on the nightstand. It must have been brought there a long time ago, so it’s cold.

Since I’m a picky eater, I didn’t even think about eating it. Still, I wanted to drink water. My dry throat hurt like it was going to tear. I looked for the rope, but couldn’t see it. Now that I think about it, the room is clean, but old and small. Even at first glance, it was not a mansion belonging to a noble family.

‘We need to move.’

I didn’t even have the energy to scream. Richt stumbled out of bed and headed for the door.

‘water.’

Once you see someone, you have to ask for water. With that in mind, I put my hand on the door handle, and the door suddenly opened. Blinking his eyes slowly, he lifted his head and saw Mihyeong’s face on his solid chest.

A handsome man with blue eyes and red hair. It was Abel. He was contorting his face as if he was displeased with something. If you look closely, you can see that water is dripping from his head, as if he didn’t know where he came from.

“Where are we going?”

Abel stretched out his hand and grabbed Richt. The hand that touched the ice was extremely cold.

‘Did you wash in cold water in this weather?’

It was something Richt could not have imagined. My twisted shoulder hurt. There was no sign of any consideration for the patient. I thought for a moment about Abel’s scary nickname. After all, it would be better not to resist.

“water.”

The sound could not come out properly because of my dry throat.

“I want to drink water.”

Still, I said everything I had to say.

“I’ll bring it to you. “It’s in.”

Abel spun Richt around and nudged him on the back. If she had pushed a little harder she would have fallen forward. Then the door closed.

‘Am I imprisoned now?’

Has your identity been discovered? Well, since I recognized him, he must have been chasing me like hell. Richt sighed softly and crawled back into bed. The sweat-soaked sheets were unpleasant, but I didn’t have the courage to complain in this situation.

As I lay down quietly again, Abel came in with water. The water in the crudely made bowl was cold. It looks like he just went to a well and scooped it up. There wasn’t the slightest consideration for the patient, but now even this was painful.

Richt held the bowl with trembling hands and drank the water. As the cool water passed down his throat, he felt a little alive. I drank all the water in an instant and held out the bowl, and Abel took it back.

After quenching my thirst, I became hungry. Richt leaned over and brought out a bowl of soup. It was a cold, bland soup, but there was nothing else to fill my stomach.

“Shall I heat it up?”

Richt nodded. Abel went out with a bowl of soup.

‘Are you a different person than you think?’

I thought he would at least grab me by the collar when he saw me waking up. He gave us water and heated the soup. As she held the bowl of moderately hot soup, warmth spread to her fingertips. As she was eating it slowly, her spirit came up to her head and started chattering.

[I also gave him medicine.]

‘how?’

I didn’t remember taking the medicine, so I asked and the spirit answered.

[They passed it by mouth.]

[After drinking the medicine, put your lips together.]

[I handed it over. He drank it well.]

I almost knocked over the bowl of soup I was holding. I’m glad I swallowed everything I put in my mouth. Otherwise, I would have just spewed it out.

My hands started shaking again. So, if you combine the spirit’s words, Abel kissed her to give her medicine.

‘Strange!’

This cannot happen. But spirits do not tell lies. If so, that means it happened. Richt held his bowl of soup tightly and looked at Abel. My eyes keep landing on his lips.

“why?”

Abel looked at Richt and asked indifferently. Her lips, with their moderate thickness and redness, looked voluptuous. I mean, you kissed yourself with those lips. No, no. What he did was only done to save people.

‘First of all, they’re both men.’

Let’s calm down. Richt drank the soup slowly. He managed to eat well. The original Richt would have thrown the soup bowl, but now you have to get used to things like this. Although he had purchased the baronial title in Asrahan, he would not be able to live like before.

The life of a landless nobleman is sometimes no different from that of a commoner. Since I have money, I can live comfortably to some extent, but I don’t know the future.

‘I have to find something I can do.’

Before I knew it, the soup had run out.

Before that, there was something to do first. I had to restore her health and run away from here. She must have a reason why Abel left her alone until now. Richt traced her whereabouts so far.

Although they invaded the imperial palace in the beginning, they did not harm the crown prince. No one was killed inside. It is difficult to immediately charge him with treason. While thinking about it, this thought occurred to me.

‘Do I really need to admit that it’s Richt?’

Wouldn’t it be enough to just take it off? In fact, considering Devine’s movements so far, it is strange to be here at this time. It was a busy time just working next to the crown prince. If he was sane, he wouldn’t disband the Knights and run away.
