CH 170

After that, I put the firewood inside the stove in the covered wagon and lit the fire using a fire dagger. Once the inside of the wagon became warm, I started cooking medicinal food for Yurina-san. The ingredients I used were irene herb, mylene detoxification herb, garlic, deer meat and uni pickled in salt. Then, to make the pasta easier to digest, I crushed it in small pieces with a knife before boiling it in a pot. After that, I added milan fruit wine to bring out the flavor of the soup. 

The delicious scent of the food filled the entire wagon.

I took out some deer meat from the pot and placed it on Ash’s plate. However, although Ash was drooling all over the floor, he still dragged his plate to Yurina-san and sat patiently in front of her. Apparently, he was offering his favorite meat to Yurina-san. Ash was truly a gentle boy. He was worrying about his owner, Yurina-san. 

I helped Yurina-san to sit up, poured the medicinal meal into a wooden bowl and fed it to her with a spoon. When someone had a fever, it was very important to make sure that person drank enough water so I also gave them Yurina-san a cup of clean water made from the water dagger. 

“Look, Ash. Yurina-san is fine. You need to eat your meat too as well.”

Then, maybe because Ash finally felt relieved, he started munching on his deer meat too. 

It seemed Yurina-san had grown very fond of Ash since she kept on hugging Ash all through her meal. 

Holding Ash in your arms, gives you a sense of relief. I understood it well too. 

After that, I gave paruna detoxification potion for Yurina-san to drink and then I tucked her back to sleep again. She pestered me to give her a kiss on the cheek so I did. I gave her a ‘sleep well’ kiss on the cheek.

She then giggled before she finally closed her eyes….

Somehow, this kind of thing felt nice. 

I added more firewood into the stove and then I went outside to take care of the horses, check the wagon and do all other things as well.

“Ash, please watch over Yurina-san for me.”

“Woof!”

Putting on warm clothes, I went outside, away from the warmth of the covered wagon. When I looked up at the cold sky, I saw glimpses of transparent looking stardust from between the trees. It was a beautiful night but right now, I wasn’t in the mood for having fun. 

“It’s definitely going to be alright. It’s going to be fine.”

My precious person had fallen ill and I was in a different world without any doctor around. Although I had magic potions with me, I was well aware that an illness like this was not an easy thing to cure. 

It would be crazy to not feel anxious at a time like this. 

“Please, please let the medicine work…”

After that, I distracted myself by collecting materials from monsters and chopping firewood before I went back to continue nursing Yurina-san.
