The Doomed and Blessed, 13th young miss Chapter 91

CHAPTER 91

I was finally ready to go to the Academy…So, I set off from cave, not having the intention of returning back there anytime soon!  

Not knowing too much about the capital, I had to ask two people for directions. These people had looked at me strangely but had never said anything, except the directions that I needed to get to the Academy. And on my way there, I was passing by a…Well I would call it a ‘hospital’ or ‘chemist’…

There were medicinal ingredients and physicians there…Looking up at the name, it was called ‘The Seedling Substance’. And, as I passed by, there was a woman kowtowing and crying endlessly in full view of everybody, right in front of the place.

It looked like she had been there for two days, as her puffy eyes were only opened a small amount, and they were red. A small amount of wet and dry blood, looked to be coming from her forehead, making me hate this era even more!

Her clothes looked like that of a noble, as it was a luxurious red colour, yet it was dirty. Her hair was messy, but obviously had been put up, as that of a married woman. She looked so tired and her upper body was swaying, as though she would faint at any second…She was not only dirty from the floor that she was kneeling on, but the morning due, or rain, had come upon her as well. I could see some damp places that probably had been more wet, quite some time ago. Then…The small amount of skin that could be seen, was burnt because of the sun…

I sort of felt for her, seeing her so determined, yet, by the looks of it…Not accomplishing anything at all…

Why aren’t they helping her?

I stopped, the Academy was in sight…But, I was…Curious.

Sighing to my flaw, I turned and found a place that didn’t have much people, and I watched the woman continue to sway and quietly mumble, “Please, help…Please, help…”

I noticed, a distance away, that there were two maidservants who were kneeling and watching the woman with watery eyes. They also looked like they had been there as long as the lady and looking just as bad. To my eyes, they looked worse, because they looked like they had no hope…

Patting Naruto absentmindedly, I sighed.

While one is unwell, three others become unwell…

Shaking my head, I looked back at the single, determined woman and decided that I wasn’t going to let her die…

Sending over a bit of my spiritual essence, I see that she’s in need of nutrients. She had very little energy left and was already dehydrated.

“Arf!”

Blinking, I looked at Naruto that was on my shoulder, and shook my head, “No, you can’t eat her.”

“Arf.”

Turning back to the woman kowtowing, I helped her a bit, so that she doesn’t die anytime soon. I was able to tend to her eyes and her burnt skin, teleporting a little water into her as well.

Fixing up her forehead, I could see that she was relatively quite pretty and was even more proud of her.

Someone as pretty as this, would normally have too much pride, or something…Right? She obviously loves the unwell person very much…

I didn’t understand how she is not being seen to, when helping people who are unwell, was the what physicians do. Even I felt an obligation of sorts now, that I should help heal people. To me, this young lady was so dedicated, that I would help her just because of that…

Thinking a little deeper, I guessed there was some kind of grudge going on. But no doubt, even if there is a grudge, there is most likely an innocent person that is still being victimized…

I knew very well about hurting one person, is still hurting others, even if you don’t touch them at all. And by the looks of this, the one they might have a grudge on, might be the person that is unwell. Yet, this lady is hurting because of it…

Feeling angry, I send a star inside the ‘hospital’, to see why they aren’t helping her.

Unknowingly, my anger had made my red eyes return, completely overtaking the brown that I had fixed them with. It wasn’t hard to do this, as red was now the dominating colour of my eyes…And now, they glowed slightly to my anger.
