Shad is sick.
The illness was not without symptoms, and after dropping Dr. Schneider off at the Randall Valley train station on Wednesday and returning home, Shad felt something was wrong. The initial symptoms were a little powerlessness and a slight dizziness in the head, but he only thought it was because he had been overworked recently, he suddenly relaxed, and his body was not quite used to it.
Therefore, after he was busy writing the report on "Miss Fiona Drago and the Establishment of the Academy" for Miss Daniste, that night, he and Lou, who hadn't spent the night at No. Via, had a pretty good night.
As Miss Galina said, the purple-eyed girl knew about their affairs in advance. Therefore, when the two snuggled together at midnight, and Xia De told his apology and plans for the future, Luvia was not angry, but put her finger on his lips: "We agreed at the beginning Yes, prodigal knight, if it is for our cause, I will not disagree with you."
At this moment, Xia De already felt the drowsiness in his head increasing, but the gentle girl in his arms prevented him from thinking more.
"You're very reserved about love and don't take advantage of my trust in you. You have a good eye for picking your targets. Even I must admit that Galina Cavendish is really beautiful. I talked to her , she will do her best to help us, the power of the Witch Council will eventually fall into our hands."
She gently kissed Xia De's side face, and a reserved and charming expression appeared on her face at the same time:
"On a night like this, don't talk about spoiling the fun. Please tell me, knight, how does it feel to be a witch...how is it?"
Even though Xia De didn't say what was wrong with him, after being woken up on time by Mia meowing on Thursday morning, Luvia still found that his voice was a bit hoarse, and he actually coughed a few times when he woke up.
It is extremely rare for a ring warlock to get sick, let alone a ring warlock with strong physical fitness like Shade.
Although Xia De still believed that this might have something to do with being too tired these days, Luvia immediately blushed and loudly claimed that it had absolutely nothing to do with her.
She was quite worried about this, and sent the letter to Galina Manor, hoping that a maid would take care of Xia De in the next few days.
Xia De stayed at home all Thursday because he was unwell, and that night, Xia De, who was sore all over his body, even gave up his original plan to write a report after dinner and went back to his room to rest. Half an hour later, when the three young maids who were attracted by Mia's cry touched his forehead, they realized that his body temperature had risen to a dangerous temperature. Anxious Luvia, Miss Galina and Dorothy quickly gathered at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square that night. After confirming that Xia De had an inexplicable high fever, he used ring magicians to confirm that this was definitely not a normal illness.
Mystical methods including [Plague Doctor Ring] cannot affect his state. Only through the most primitive method of physical cooling, his body temperature was barely lowered, but the persistent high fever showed no sign of subsiding.
Xia De, who was tortured by the illness, did not completely lose consciousness. He knew that the ladies were coming, and that Mia was lying on the side of his head worriedly, but he could only moan and feel uncomfortable all over his body, struggling constantly in the half-dream and half-awake state.
For a long time to come, he was in this delicate state of half-dream and half-awake. The high fever caused severe headaches and the trouble of not being able to distinguish between dreams and reality. The rhythm of the drum beating heard in the Wilde Opera House while in a coma continued to play, making the headache and nausea even more intense.
For a while, he even dreamed that he was stabbed to death by Luvia with a sharp knife, so that in reality, when Luvia woke him up to drink medicine, he was terrified and unable to move.
If you close your eyes, you will see the darkness; if you open your eyes, you will see the monotonous scenery of the bedroom. He knew that he was always at home, that Mia seldom left him, that the maids were always taking care of him, that many people came to visit him, and that he had been given a lot of strange potions, but he couldn't communicate coherently. to think.
Severe headaches, nausea, and lethargy caused by his body's instincts made him suffer from Thursday, the thirteenth day of the Wind Rises month, to the 20th day of the Winds Rising Moon.
For nearly two weeks on Saturday the 2nd, I lost my sensitivity to time.
He lies in bed every day, and three meals will be delivered on time. Occasionally waking up, I can see Mia staring at Luvia's new flowers on the windowsill, and the flowers in those flower pots bloom more and more conspicuous petals as he opens his eyes again and again .
After all, spring has really come.
Drowsy, he knew that Luvia would live here most nights, and when he woke up with a headache in the middle of the night, she hugged him in bed and told him various stories;
Miss Galina arranged for a maid at home every morning, and left Tifa at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square to take care of his daily life. When the Duchess left, Shad would always get a wet kiss on his forehead; Rosie and Rezia with Adelina each came to visit him every other day, and the sad girls often sat by the bed and held his hand, telling all kinds of love stories.
It seems that with Xia De's serious illness, his family has become more lively than usual.
Iluna, Sister Divelin, Helen and Grace, Priest Augustus, and Dr. Schneider, who came back to Tobesk a little later, all came here to see him. Ordinary friends Baron Lavender, Baron Rwanda, Director Anlos, neighbors Mr. and Mrs. Smith also expressed their concerns.
At some point, all kinds of gifts piled up at the foot of the bed and in the kitchen, including but not limited to carnations, chocolates, greeting cards, fruits, and handicrafts, piled up into a hill. Every day when Xia De wakes up, he can hear that someone is visiting him again with a headache. Even Queen Diana sent doctors to check on his condition and sent a brand new tea set as a gift. The four great witches from afar, including Granny Cassandra, also appeared in Shad's home worriedly through a projection on a night that Shad could not remember. The projection ritual they used was obviously advanced, and after examining him in the bedroom, they discussed Shad's strange condition together.
Although the high fever persisted, the good news was that Shade had no other conditions other than high fever, pain, vomiting and severe nasal congestion, and the symptoms were not contagious to anyone. It's not just a disease, no
It's a curse, and there's no trace of the relic's influence. It's like Shad's body coming out
Therefore, on the second day after Xia De had a high fever, the witches fully confirmed that this was directly related to the swallowed "origin of the twisted earth".
Worried Luvia, on the one hand, asked Iluna to go to the "Guardian of the Earth" in the Randall Valley to discuss the situation through the basement of Shade's house. On the other hand, she used the three "Devil Gold Coins" A divination was carried out on one.
The results of the divination combined with the advice given by the chosen ones from afar, the ladies who were worried about Xia De's physical condition knew that Xia De only needed to rest in bed, and he would recover naturally with time.
Thus, the drowsy foreigner received the best care he could have imagined. During this period, Miss Galina even thought about transferring Shad to her own manor, but was rejected by Luvia and Dorothy together:
"Xia De can only recover in his own home. This is the result of divination. Besides, he will feel uncomfortable if he is not at home!"
No one can refute this reason.
He was indeed recovering day by day. In the first few days of the disease, Xia De was awake for no more than six hours a day, and he ate very little food every day. But from the fourth day onwards, although the high fever still persisted, his drowsiness was significantly relieved, and he was even able to listen to the maids reading newspapers on the bed and have short conversations with visiting guests.
When the time came to the seventh day of his illness, although his throat was hoarse and he couldn't speak, Xia De could try to drag his weak body, get out of bed, wash his face and brush his teeth by himself. But as soon as he left the bedroom, he was gently carried back by the maids, and then he was lectured by Luvia, Dorothy, Miss Galina and Rezia in turn:
"Isn't it different for the maids to wipe your face and brush your teeth for you than to do it yourself? Oh Shade, you both
Can't you just enjoy life? "
Xia De herself knew what was wrong with her. After all, after UU Reading www.uukanshu.com swallowed those forces that distorted the earth, "she" also said that the side effects would appear later. As for the persistent high fever, as "she" said, it is not a very dangerous thing.
Although Xia De's body can recover naturally, the girls still prepared all kinds of strange "supplements" for Xia De in an attempt to speed up his recovery. But those weird potions, and supplements that Shade had never heard of, mostly tasted weird and had no effect.
Of course, not all methods are useless. What can play a role is the potion sent by Sister Devlin and the Red Butterfly Twins.
The nun's potion is a potion that can mend the soul made in the sacrificial field after she took some "Moonlight Water" from the attic and used the secret method of the [Spiritual Order]. And what Helen and Grace sent was a strange red potion.
The potion was contained in a thumb-sized test tube, and the liquid in the test tube was crystal clear. Although there is a feeling of "blood brewing" in the taste, it is more sweet and sour like green apples.
Xia De originally thought that he would not be able to recover until the end of the windy moon, but with the help of the nuns and the red butterfly girls, he felt that he was not far away from recovery.
