Chapter.16 Brothers and Colds

I’ve never heard of a dragon catching a cold. Or is it because they are surprisingly delicate creatures that they catch a cold?

Are influenza viruses equal to all things? It’s something amazing.

Because it is a human body, the immune system seemed to be affected just like a human body.

Well, this is not just nonsense: dragons that have relationships with humans in a polymorph state give birth to humans.

Dragons who enjoy playing and have children do not lay eggs, but give birth like humans in a human state.

A child born that way is not a dragon. It’s not even mixed race.

I once heard a story about a pure human being being born. The story is that no matter how many seeds you sow after coming out of the game, the number of dragons does not increase, only the number of humans increases.

Well, if that weren’t the case, the world would be overflowing with dragons.

In any case, this means that the dragon’s polymorph reproduces human cells and tissues exactly, so it is not surprising that a cold virus infiltrates Lurin’s current body.

But it’s still strange. Most cold viruses are spread through mucous membrane contact or saliva, and Rurin was just next to me. Why did she catch a cold?

“Wouldn’t the virus disappear if we go back to Rurin Dragon?”

“I don’t like that. Didn’t I say that I didn’t want to be different from you? I am me. I want to be who I am now! But I feel dizzy. There is no strength at all. My throat hurts too. Ugh.”

“You’re stubborn.”

“When I become a dragon, the feeling of being different from you torments my heart. I really hate that kind of thing. At that time in the capital, I made a firm decision. And didn’t you say that it will get better if you lie down?”

“Okay, I know that, so lie down straight first.”

Well, there is no guarantee that the virus will disappear even if you turn back into a dragon and then back into a human.

There is a good chance that it will lurk somewhere and generate body heat again as soon as it returns to human form.

The good news is that my body is light.

If both of them were sick, it would create a situation where there was really no answer. I don’t know if it’s because of Rurin’s poor nursing yesterday or because my cold has spread, but either way, I don’t have a high fever and I feel fine.

“That’s why I told you to stay away. Ugh.”

“Hihi, my throat hurts, you...” !”

“Is this something to laugh about? Besides, you didn’t smile even once yesterday?”

“You will smile because you feel better! Hehe, it doesn’t matter that I’m sick!”

“Okay, just be quiet for now. “You talk a lot about your sore throat.”

I placed the still cold towel on Lurin’s forehead that had the preservation magic that she made yesterday.

“Are you sleeping. “Sleeping is the best thing to do with this illness.”

“That’s my specialty.”

“Okay, okay.”

After answering that question, I started wiping Lurin’s sweat with a towel.

The comment was reported to L immediately after the supervisor who was harassing the young man went to the ranch. And El paid attention to the word tax evasion that the young people said and entrusted this case to the Gray boy.

That was the second day that Linte and Mate started working, and the Gray boy began to thoroughly investigate all the interests and matters related to the construction of Gray City.

“Eat some of this. Is something so serious that you have to skip meals?”

Verna approached the Gray boy who was looking through various documents in the study. The tray in her hand contained tea and refreshments.

“mother! That’s what Master asked me to do.”

“Oh my goodness. “Master?”

“yes. No matter what it is, it is something that must be done. And I think it will be over soon, so don’t worry too much.”

Ratanda just opened her mouth with a thoughtful expression on her face. All the nobles he had ever known were nothing more than minnows.

The boy in front of me is a lord who will become an earl.

count.

Among the nobles, the Count is a great nobleman, and the commoners cannot even dare to look at him.

As things went on like this, workers here and there began to complain about what had happened to Ratanda.

The Gray boy listened to each of the stories. And right away, they started to catch Ratanda and all the gangsters who had conspired against him.

This is what El asked for, and it is for the territory. For the first time, a large-scale liquidation operation was carried out on one’s own initiative.

So, although it was unusual for a nobleman, the Gray boy took care of everything himself. And while I was sorting out the gang of gangsters who had conspired with Ratanda, I saw a strange gang of gangsters already stretched out on the floor and shaking.

“Why are they like that? Does not matter. First, capture them all!”

“I will obey your orders. “My lord!”

Leaving the soldiers’ movements behind, the Gray boy clicked his tongue as he looked curiously at the gangsters stretched out.

“It’s a strange thing. “Have you received heavenly punishment?”

“It’s not me! “I’m not on the same side as these guys!”

Meanwhile, Mate, who was with the gangsters, trembled like an aspen tree and pleaded not guilty to the soldiers who were trying to arrest him.

“Not on the same side? “Then why were you together?”

The Gray boy frowned at Mate, wondering where he was coming up with such an obvious excuse.

“I saw him in prison, and he was trying to drag me away to harm me... At that moment... .”

“What is your name and what do you do? Are you really not a gangster? “Prove first that you are not a gangster.”

A question from the so-called lord.

Mate froze and lowered his eyes at the question of a being he couldn’t even dare to look up to.

“Okay. “If you’re not really a gangster, there’s no need to be scared.”

“That thing... .”

“If there is no other way to prove something, there must be a fair investigation. “Take it with you now!”

“My name is Mate. and... . Working on a ranch on a hill! really! I’m really not on the same side as those guys. Rather, they are like enemies!”

“A ranch? “Did you say it was a ranch?”

The Gray boy was surprised and motioned for Mate to be released. The soldiers followed orders and let Mate go for now. Then Mate immediately knelt down in front of the Gray boy.

“Oh, I also received my wages today. This is it.”

Mate held out the envelope with trembling hands. As soon as the Gray boy heard the word ranch, his expression softened.

The same goes for the way you look at Mate.

“Are you by any chance the brothers Mate and Linte?”

“How can I even get my brother’s name...?” .”

“is it? What a coincidence. In fact, the owner of the ranch where you work is also my benefactor. “Then, by any chance, are those gangsters who got away with it the ones who did it?”

“Oh no!”

“then?”

Mate was a little hesitant to speak. Anyway, that woman is his benefactor. Because of that, I started rolling my eyes because I felt like being investigated was out of the question.

“Okay. Those guys are the scum of the city. They won’t be punished for what they did. “I’m just curious why it happened like that.”

“Is that so? Actually, I don’t know either! just... It was the woman I saw at the restaurant on the hill... . When he rolled his eyes... .”

“... done! Get there. Forget what you have seen. Do you understand?”

“yes? yes!”
