episode_0237

‘…what. ‘Did I hear something wrong?’

Are you feeling okay?

If it were the way it was, something completely different would have come out.

They say it hasn’t calmed down a bit since Chapter 1, but Flora usually screams at times.

So, I have to accept the anger roughly and send it away…

‘Your intimacy level has already increased?’

[Flora Bagland]

[Intimacy: 68%]

Seeing as it’s not painted in a different color, it doesn’t look like there’s an event in it like back then.

What is it?

I am very embarrassed.

Still, I have to answer first. I chose one option.

[ 3. You can just go back. I don’t even want to be here. ]☑

“There’s nothing to worry about, you can just go back. There’s no reason to come to me, right?”

I increased the intensity a little, but it’s okay.

This little boy probably didn’t want to be in this hospital room and didn’t have any reason to come visit me.

If it exists systematically, I can cut it off from my side.

“Ah. There is no need for a guardian.”

-Sure.

“…?!”

“Ka, Karsein?”

“As you can see, my fiancee is helping me very well.”

You don’t want to come visit me in the hospital anyway.

There’s no reason to come here anyway.

There is no problem since my fiancee is my guardian anyway.

With this, the Samsinki that can be pushed away when meeting Flora is completed.

If you do that, you’ll quickly get annoyed and go back home.

I turned my head without thinking much.

But it seems it was my mistake.

“…there is.”

“What?”

“There’s a reason to come!”

Swish!

Something flies out of my small hand.

It wasn’t difficult to hold on as the force wasn’t properly applied.

…Is this what it was then?

◆Kelvia allergy reliever

[ Kelbia allergy reliever made by Flora. Reduces the effects of ingested allergies. ]

The item I was going to give Flora when she came to my room.

He explained that there was a custom of giving gifts to those who achieved the highest score in the symposium, and because of that, he told me that if he gave me a gift, I should use it.

Flora was looking at me with a look in her eyes that wouldn’t go away if I didn’t accept it.

‘…I came here to hand you this?’

But somehow, it comes one step at a time.

-chuck.

What is this again?

Why are you holding onto my arm again?

I looked at Flora with an expression that I didn’t understand, but I didn’t even care about this little boy.

“Carcein is the Duke of Bagland!”

“Yes, yes?”

“This is our family!”

He was sharpening his blade and shouting at Harnier.

…What the hell does that mean?

There is no common sense at all.

‘Did Harnier do something wrong?’

With that in mind, I looked at Harnier, but Harnier also shook his head as if he didn’t really understand.

-Tiring!

▶Flora’s intimacy has increased.◀

[Current figure: 70%]

Fuck.

Why is he like this?

Why are you doing this?

***

After that, Flora growled and glared at Harnier.

Not only that, he said some incomprehensible things and grabbed my arm and slapped me.

I said something to Flora, who was whimpering.

“If you have any complaints, take it out on me. Why are you saying something to my fiancee?”

If common sense tells you that you are dissatisfied, the reason would be me.

I don’t know why the arrow was aimed at Harnier, but it didn’t look good to say something to an innocent person.

So, I just said something…

“You are the Duke of Vagrand! You stupid idiot!”

“What?”

“Cee…! I hate you. I absolutely hate it─!”

Flora shouts loudly and leaves the hospital room.

Then, after trying to leave for a moment, he hesitated, then glared at me and pointed at the medicine bottle.

“Take your medicine well! Karsein, you idiot!”

“…”

-thud. Ta-ta-tat.

“True. What do you mean I am the Duke of Bagland?”

I just can’t figure it out. That kid.

I didn’t intend to listen to some nonsense for no reason, but it ended up being good for me to go out like that.

▶Conditions have been met.◀

[ Talk to Flora Bagland 1/1 ]

There is nothing wrong with the episode.

◆Kelvia allergy reliever

[ Kelvia allergy reliever made by Flora. Reduces the effect. ]

“…Well, I’ll have to put this in that drawer later.”

I guess I’ll have to bring back Harniena, who kicked me out for no reason.

-Drop.

“Hmm? Dyke?”

ah. Now that I think about it, people were able to come from the estate as well.

I think this customer will be fine though.

“I guess I overheard it somehow. Never mind. Because I’m not going to say anything.”

“Yes. Sorry.”

Dyke scratched his cheek and looked intently at the place where Flora had run away, and then he said something to me.

“Stupid people like that are just cute.”

“What?”

“I also have a younger sister and know her, so I will only give you this much advice.”

Dyke, what is he talking about that I have no idea about?

Well, since you have a younger sister and have had similar experiences, does that give you a general idea?

Thinking like that, I quickly turned my head.

‘That’s a fool?’

Looking at the place where Flora passed, I recall what happened in the hospital room.

And he immediately denied it.

‘That’s nonsense.’

what? Are you stupid?

That kid?

Indeed. You’re a fool for whining for no reason because you’re in a bad mood.

“Dike. You think too highly of Flora. That kind of thing is not foolish.”

“Lord. But…”

“It seems like you have a good relationship with your sister, seeing as you came to get Shatrene strawberries to save your sister, but I don’t.”

It’s actually the worst.

I tapped Dyke’s shoulder and told him to wait a moment, then passed by him and went to pick up Harnier.

“Umm…”

Dyke scratched his head again.

That’s clear, I muttered to myself.

***

Before long, guests started coming to my hospital room again.

Dyke, Frikt, and other guards, as well as the Chatrene and Ruthmire estates, brought food in hopes of a better recovery, and gifts for the Symposium chief were piling up on one side of the hospital room.

Of course, family members were included among them.

“I was so worried at first… I feel relieved when he wakes up like this.”

The Duchess, Isabella, came to visit and said she hoped he would get better quickly.

“When I return to the Duke’s residence, I have something to tell you. Don’t wait until you fully recover.”

First, Arina left a message saying that she would wait because she had something to say.

Anyway, in the episode where family members are visiting the hospital, the main condition is whether or not to have a conversation, so it wasn’t difficult to do this.

There was nothing to be particularly careful about here.

It was an episode that could be cleared in one day as long as you didn’t go against the grain by choosing the choices that appeared occasionally.

however.

I still haven’t cleared this episode.

▶CHAPTER 3 – Episode I. Visiting the family is in progress.◀

▶You must meet with the entire family of Duke Vagrand.◀

[ Isabella Bagland 1/1 ]

[Arina Bagland 1/1]

[ Claire Vagrand 0/1 ]

[ Flora Bagland 1/1 ]

Just one person.

This is because there was one person left who needed to clear it.

Claire was the easiest person to meet when a hospital visit episode occurred.

As ever,

“Hey, why are you getting hurt needlessly?!”

He is the one who spits out the same line and is the first to run and attack Karssein.

But Claire is still not visible.

Even though it was broad daylight in the morning and the sun was setting and evening was approaching, Claire did not come to the hospital room.

-widely. widely.

As I tapped the table with my index finger, Harnier asked vaguely.

“The person waiting is Lady Claire, right?”

I wonder how he realized it right away.

There are only so many people left. Karssein’s range of human relationships was as narrow as mine in real life.

I nodded lightly in the affirmative.

“You might be busy with work. Lady Claire’s boutique has quite a lot of active customers. So wouldn’t it be better to meet tomorrow?”

“Hmm…”

I glanced towards the progress window.

There is no deadline or timer in the episode progress window for when you must clear the episode.

‘What that means is that you just have to clear it anyway. This means that there will be no major problems even if the date is postponed.’

okay. I think I was thinking too tightly.

There’s no need for me to wait like this just because you’re waiting for Claire.

“Shall we have dinner?”

“Yes. I haven’t eaten much since a while ago…”

Suddenly, Harnier stopped talking and turned around.

I wondered why, but the sound of footsteps was getting closer.

The sound of shoes echoing in the hallway.

From the looks of it, these are not high men’s shoes.

Since he is getting closer to this hospital room, he must be my guest. That’s what it means to be a woman.

-Tiring!

▶Claire came to visit me in the hospital.◀

“Maybe I should postpone the meal a little?”

Harnier smiles.

okay. There must be only one person.

It’s Claire.

I nodded, and she, now designated as the guardian, opened the door one step ahead and went out to greet Claire.

A brief greeting is added along with the message that I am awake. I thought it would come in quickly that way.

“Um, over there… Lady Harnier. Just a moment.”

“Yes? Eh?”

“This way for a moment…”

However, Harnier’s figure disappears from the open door of the hospital room.

At first glance, it looked like a hand was being pulled.

Thanks to this, I could hear the voice but not the content of the conversation.

After increasing the distance so that my ears could not reach, several conversations began to take place.

If I had been able to use sense expansion with mana, I would have been able to hear that too…

‘Well, this is what my body looks like now.’

I had no choice but to wait. I don’t particularly want to eavesdrop on the conversation with Harnier.

Then, as if the conversation had ended, the sound of footsteps came closer again.

“Carsein. The young lady says she has something to talk about alone.”

“…Yes?”

“Will you stay away for a while? Hehehe.”

No, why are you laughing like that?

widely.

ah. The door was closed.

“…”

It’s just me and Claire in this hospital room.

An awkward atmosphere instantly takes over.

Claire lowered her head and wasn’t even showing her eyes.

‘ha. ‘I’ll just nag you like usual.’

This makes me a little nervous because I feel like something might happen.

‘no. Anyway, there wasn’t even a dead flag at the hospital visit.’

To be exact, I may have never experienced a dead flag at this timing, but unless I went crazy, there was no way I would make such a wrong choice.

I calmly asked Claire.

“If you came to give me a gift, should I just leave it behind? Don’t you think it would be a waste of time to be here?”

The symposium chief gift was common not only to nobles but also to the entire family. I thought it would be okay if I brought this up first and made a paragraph.

However, it went a little differently than I expected.

▶The option disappears.◀

‘…Huh?’

Why are the options disappearing?

When you are in such doubt.

Suddenly, Claire suddenly raised her head.

-bean!

He walked towards me with great strides and fed honey chestnuts to my head.

“Hey, what are you doing?”

“What? Just give me a gift? Is it a waste of time? This!”

no. Is this woman crazy?

Why is there a headlock all of a sudden?

“What about you? My sister came to me because she was worried, but that’s all you can say?”

“Kek! This crazy bitch is really pestering me!”

“Crazy woman? What crazy girl? You are more right! It won’t work!”

“No, hey! Claire! I am a patient…! Billion!”

After getting beaten up by Claire like that.

Before I knew it, a system message had appeared in front of my eyes.

‘This is a clear condition?’

▶CHAPTER 3 – Episode I. Cleared the visit to the family.◀

▶I met with the entire family of the Duke of Vagrand.◀

[ Isabella Bagland 1/1 ]

[Arina Bagland 1/1]

[ Claire Vagrand 1/1 ]

[ Flora Bagland 1/1 ]

▶Hidden episode. Cleared a small commotion in the hospital room. ◀

▶Additional rewards will follow.◀

[ ??? ]

Fuck. Same with Flora, why is Iljin like this today?

I really don’t understand anything.

but…

There was something different about Claire now.

That’s all I knew.

***

Another day has passed in the hospital room where I spent time greeting guests.

Today’s day starts no different from yesterday.

In the morning, the duke’s doctor, Shayden, comes to diagnose Carcein.

Looking at that scene, Harnier swallows his saliva and remembers Mina’s words.

-miss. When my injured fiancé came out fully recovered, voila! Shouldn’t we give them a gift?! That way, the emotion will be doubled!

She had no idea what gift to give to Karssein, who had so much debt, so she asked Mina for advice, and Mina took this as an opportunity to tell her that she should definitely repay him.

He said that traditional, outdated gifts should never be given, and that the debt can only be repaid by giving a ‘real gift’.

Harnier was naturally shocked when she learned the identity of the real gift.

-How can you gift something like that…!

-no. They’re engaged, so that’s natural! Anyway, please stick close to me during the visit. Do you have to do that?

How on earth can you give that as a gift?

My face still feels hot.

at that time. After completing the examination, Shayden is now of the opinion that it is okay to continue working.

“Hmm. I think it’s okay to start working now.”

“Bu, already?”

“Yes. Surprisingly, the wound healed much faster than expected. Maybe it’s because of the body you’ve been steadily growing.”

“I say so. Are you okay now?”

I think it’s a bit premature as I still haven’t figured out how to gift it, but I can’t give it up now.

Harnier suppressed the burning sensation and spoke to Karssein.

“Hey, Carcein.”

“Yes?”

“Read this.”

Slowly, that time was approaching.

“I already received the grade notice… hmm? Are all symposium attendees attending?”
