Chapter 270 Bedside Care

Name:Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure Author:


When I opened my eyes again, I found that I was lying in a luxurious bed that I didn't recognize.

This bed was even more luxurious than the bed that I shared with Baroness Rose.

As I slowly came back to my senses and the sleepiness disappeared, I started looking around the room to find that this room was just as luxurious as the bed that I was lying in.

It was clear that this place was owned by a very rich and powerful person...

So what was I doing here?

The last thing that I remembered was that we were fighting the undead in Wind Valley when I had suddenly fainted from overdrawing on my mana to use the Orb of the Dead.

So how did I get here from there?

As I was trying to figure out what had happened, I suddenly heard a noise coming from nearby.

I didn't even need to look to know what this sound was, so I quickly laid back down on the bed.

It was the sound of a door being opened.

I didn't know if the people coming in were friends or enemies, so I didn't want to take that chance.

For now, I would pretend to be asleep and make them let their guard down before finding a way to escape this place.

After the sound of the door opening rang out, there were footsteps that came closer and closer to me. At the same time, there seemed to be the sound of some kind of silverware hitting some kind of bowl that rang out as well.

Could it be some kind of poison or some kind of medicine?

I had no way of knowing since my eyes were closed, but I could hear someone pulling a chair up and sitting down beside the bed.

It seemed that they weren't planning on leaving...

So how long would I have to pretend to be asleep before they left?

But it didn't seem like they were planning to leave at all since I could hear the sounds of plates and tableware being hit together, clearly showing that they were doing something.

In the end, there was a voice that suddenly rang out that said, "If you're already awake, there's no need to keep pretending to be asleep anymore."

When I heard this, I opened my eyes because I recognized this voice.

I opened my eyes to find a blue haired girl sitting there with a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other.

She just looked at me with a smile as she said, "You're finally awake."

I was surprised to see that it was her even though I recognized her voice. After all, why would she be here taking care of me like this?

She was the duke's daughter and I was nothing more than a baron from a remote place.

After a moment of being surprised, I asked, "What happened?"

Veronica just said with a smile, "That doesn't matter right now."

Facing my surprised look, she took a spoonful of what was in the bowl and brought it over to my mouth.

I looked down to see that it was a spoonful of oatmeal, but I wasn't in a mood to eat. I looked back up at her and asked, "What happened?"

But all that I received in response to this was the same smile on her face...the only difference was that her eyes were a bit darker, almost as if she was threatening me.

At the same time, her hand didn't move the spoon away from my mouth.

It seemed that unless I took a bite of this oatmeal, she wouldn't move it away.

So I had no choice but to take the bite that was presented in front of me.

I was surprised by how good it tasted even though it was simply oatmeal. There was a hint of cinnamon and a hint of apple to it that gave it just the right taste.

Seeing that I had finally taken the bite, Veronica moved her hand back and got more of the oatmeal before saying, "There's no need to worry about that right now. You've just woken up, so you should focus on recovering before doing anything else."

I looked at her with a strange look since I couldn't help thinking of the plot of 'Misery' seeing her like this...

Luckily for me, before this could go any further, the door opened again and this time, there was a cloaked figure that came in.

When I saw this cloaked figure, I let out a sigh of relief since I recognized him.

It was Shaka.

Shaka saw that I was sitting up in the bed and quickly came over to my side.

Ignoring Veronica who was sitting there, he went around me and started checking on different parts of my body. Only when he was satisfied with what he saw did he step back and let out a sigh of relief.

I revealed a bitter smile when I saw this before asking, "What happened?"

Shaka replied, "After you did what you did to make the undead disappear and fainted, the duke quickly had us bring you back to the city. He called the best doctors in the city to take care of you, but you've been in a coma all this time. It's already been three days since we took care of the undead."

"Three days?" I said in a surprised voice.

Shaka gave a simple nod in response.

I let out a sigh before saying, "So what has happened in these three days?"

Shaka just calmly said, "Nothing at all. After we took care of the undead, there hasn't been a single trace of demons near the city."

I gave a nod before saying, "It seems that our job here is done then."

Shaka also gave a nod.

As we fell silent, Veronica suddenly cut in by saying, "Are you done? He still needs to eat his meal."

Shaka was surprised to see that Veronica was here since he had completely ignored her after hearing my voice.

But seeing the way that she sat there beside my bed and was even feeding me, he couldn't help turning back to look at me with a strange look.

I just revealed a bitter smile when I saw this.
