118 82: Whereabouts of truth.txt (1/2)

The wound is deep, but it should be able to heal with some time to recuperate. As for the eye, I don't think my current skills are up to the task, so I can't help you.

No, I'm just grateful that you were able to save me from dying.

Marco, wrapped in bandages, was still blue-faced from the amount of blood that had been shed.

However, the pain seemed to be much lessened by the recovery magic.

'No, it's nothing to be thankful for, so don't worry about it.

No, I will repay this debt in time. Beastmen are not animals that forget the favor they received. However, I'm sure I'll have to wait until after I'm done with my business: ......

Behind Marco's eyes, which were now only one eye as he muttered in an indifferent voice, there seemed to be a fire of hatred in them.

There's something uncanny about that .......

From the state of my body, I'd like to think I'm not going to be reckless.

In order to find out the true nature of the disturbing atmosphere emitted by Marco, I thought I would ask him a lot of questions.

Depending on what he says, we will have to deal with a lot of things as soon as possible.

Well, calm down. I want to ask you a lot of questions about that 'business' and can we just have a quick chat over dinner?

Marco's stomach could be heard rumbling when he heard that he was eating.

He should be feeling very hungry right now because recovery magic is a magic that forces the body's natural resilience to be raised with magic power, so he would be consuming more nutrition.

''I can't take it easy. ......

The hatred disappeared from Marco's face and a look of shame appeared on his face.

At the same time Susana came into the room with the meal she had prepared and was serving it.

'Please enjoy your meal. I've prepared something to nourish you.'

The smell of food that filled the room made my stomach growl too.

Come to think of it, I haven't eaten lunch yet either.

I'll eat with you while you listen to me.

Susana, do you have some for me?

Susana nodded at me with a bit of a smile, probably hearing my belly rumbling, and looked at me.

'Well, I'll go get some. I'll eat it while I talk to Marco-dono about some things.

Master Noelia's already packed up and ready to go.

Before Susana could finish saying so, Noelia had brought me a meal for me.

Having rested her body, she seemed to have regained some energy from her pale face of yesterday.

'You don't have to do that, she said!　And I was going to go get it myself. You're not out of the woods yet, are you?

When I see Noelia come in to distribute the food, I quickly get up and go to accept the tray with the food on it from her.

'I've rested for the night, so I'm good to go. I'm sure you are the one who is tired, Flick-sama, since you have been going around the villages all week gathering information and examining the illnesses and injuries of the villagers, aren't you tired?

I thought I saw a glimpse of the intention to 'let me at least serve you' in Noelia's slightly moistened eyes.

'No, I'm a sturdy guy. Not so much--''

No, Master Fricke's face shows signs of fatigue. It would be better if you were served by Master Noelia.

Susana also decided that with Noelia's backup, it would be tough to defend her further, so I decided to sit down in my original spot and take her service.
