Chapter 29: Dragon Eye\n \n \n"Amazing!"\n \n"It's like a miracle."\n \nMildy-san and Richil-san's eyes widened.\n \nThe retainers of the Letivia family are cheering
around them.\n \n"Be quiet..."\n \nThe dignified voice came from a gray-haired old
man.\n \nHe is tall and slender and looks elegant as he
stands there.\n \nMaybe he is an ex-soldier. His shoulders are
broad, and he has a laceration scar under his chin. His tailcoat matches him
perfectly, and his piercing brown eyes can be seen through his glasses.\n \n"Venson-sama..."\n \n"Mansion Chief...!"\n \nThe old butler glares at the retainers who still
open their mouths.\n \nHe silenced the retainers with a single glare.\n \nApparently, he is the chief butler in this
family.\n \nClavis-san appeared from the side of the room.\n \nHe slowly approaches the bed and speaks to the
lady.\n \n"Dear...."\n \n"Oh... Thank goodness."\n \nClavis-san holds Sophinie-san's hand and kisses
it lightly.\n \nHis hand is trembling with joy.\n \n"Lilith helped me----."\n \n"It seems so."\n \nClavis-san pulls the still stunned Miss Lilith
closer and kisses her forehead.\n \n"Well done, Lilith."\n \nHe gently strokes his daughter's blonde hair.\n \nMiss Lilith shakes her head and looks at me.\n \nHer blue eyes stare at me, and I can't help but
gasp.\n \n"Thanks to you too, Luciel-kun. Thanks to
your recovery magic."\n \n"No, it was because Miss Lilith was
determined to help the lady. I only helped her out."\n \n"What exactly did you
do? Looked like
Lilith had put something into her mouth?"\n \nKarim-san asked.\n \n"Oh. That was something you may have heard
of...... That was slime. The slime candy."\n \n「「「「
Eeh! 」」」」\n \nPeople around them were surprised.\n \nThe retainers and the lady are also surprised.\n \nBut the man called Venson-san seemed to have
heard about the candy.\n \nAs he strokes his white beard, he gives a small
nod.\n \n"I had heard about it, but I didn't realize
that a candy made from magical beasts could really cure my Lady's
illness."\n \n"Yeah. I am also surprised. I didn't expect
my wish would be granted so soon....."\n \nClavis-san gulped.\n \n"Clavis-san's wish?"\n \n"Mm. Don't you
remember? When I
first met you, I said."\n \n \n"I invite you to my home for a reason. I
need your help."\n \nThat reminds me.\n \nI had forgotten that Clavis-san invited me here
for a reason.\n \n"Now, my wish has been granted."\n \n"Does that mean you wanted me to cure your
wife's illness?"\n \nWhen I ask that question, Clavis-san nods.\n \nThen Karim-san explains further.\n \n"As I said at the foot of the mountain, we
had no knowledge about your powers. That includes the skill you gave to Fletty
and his team and the medicine you used to heal Mildy."\n \nWhen I asked him the details, he explained that
his wife's illness was an incurable disease that couldn't be cured by any
renowned doctor or pharmacist.\n \nApparently, Clavis-san has sent people to look for
the cure. But in the end, they could not find it.\n \n"Then you showed up, Luciel-kun. The
medicine you gave Mildy is something that we didn't know about. We came to you
with the hope that you could help us."\n \n"But don't get me wrong. I went to see you
also because I heard your story and was interested in your character. I didn't
only go to see you for your knowledge."\n \nClavis-san added a follow-up.\n \nI shake my head.\n \n"No, I am not bothered about that. Anyway,
it was because you overestimated me. But there is one thing I must tell
you."\n \n"What is it?"\n \n"Your wife's illness hasn't been cured
yet."\n \nAfter I said this, cold air flowed through the
room. It is as if the temperature in the room had dropped a few degrees.\n \nEveryone's faces turned pale.\n \nBoth Miss Lilith and the Duchess couldn't hide
their shock.\n \n"No way! Even
though Sophinie looks so stable."\n \nUnusually, Clavis-san raised his voice.\n \nIt was Sophinie who stopped him.\n \n"Dear... Maybe what Luciel said is
true."\n \n"Sophinie!"\n \n"Somehow, I know. My chest is still aching.
Right now, it's being suppressed by that...... slime candy, but it will
probably... return."\n \n"No----."\n \nClavis-san holds his head. Miss Lillis also hugs
Sophinie-san.\n \nThe atmosphere is heavy.\n \nI am aware of this atmosphere, but I continue my
story without hiding anything.\n \nIt is more important to clearly convey the facts
than to give people false hope.\n \n"Unfortunately, I have to say that is true.
What I gave her was Care Slime. It stimulates wound regeneration but can only
slow down the symptoms of illnesses and poisons."\n \n"So, if we keep feeding her that candy,
will it suppress the symptoms for the time being?"\n \n"That is possible. But I don't think it
will cure the disease."\n \n"As Luciel-kun said, Father. It won't solve
the root of the problem."\n \n"I see..."\n \nAfter hearing Karim-san's words, Clavis-san hung
his head in disappointment.\n \nYes. It is true that if we feed her the Care
Slime candy regularly, the pain caused by the illness can be suppressed.\n \nBut if we use it too often, her body will likely
develop a resistance to it.\n \nIf the Care Slime and painkillers can no longer
suppress the pain, the next time an attack occurs, Sophinie-san's body may not
be able to handle it.\n \nMiss Lilith comes into my field of vision. Her
blue eyes are wet, and I can almost hear sobs from her trembling lips.\n \nRichil-san's, Mildy-san's, and the retainers'
faces also looked sad.\n \nAs I thought, I couldn't just let it go like
this.\n \nAfter all, they had come to ask for my help.\n \n"Clavis-san, would you allow me to examine
Sophinie-san?"\n \n"I wouldn't mind that, but....."\n \nSaying this, Clavis-san looked at Karim-san.\n \n"The doctors and I have used [appraisal] so
many times, but we couldn't find the cause."\n \n"Then, I will use [Dragon Eye]."\n \n"Dragon, [Dragon Eye]...!"\n \n"That skill is higher than [Appraisal]...!
Luciel-kun, do you have that legendary skill that could only be obtained by
making a contract with a dragon?"\n \nI silently nod and stand in front of
Sophinie-san.\n \n"Please stay still."\n \n"Yes... Please help me."\n \nSophinie-san closes her eyes.\n \nI use the [Dragon's Eye].\n \nName\nSophinie Gran Letivia\nAge Race
Status\n41 Elf
Slightly bad\n \n[Strength] F [Strength]
F [Speed] D\n[Magic] C [Intelligence]
B [Luck] E\n \nSkills\n[Fire] [Recovery] [Mist]\n \n \nWe can get about this much
information by using 【Appraisal】.\n \nBut with [Dragon Eye], I can get more detailed
information.\n \n"More details about 'Slightly Bad'
status."\n \nI increase my magic power.\n \nThen words appeared in my field of vision.\n \n[The subject is currently under a high-level
curse but is being suppressed by a powerful sedative medicine. However, there
is a risk of death if the curse strikes again.]\n \n \n"So it's a curse...."\n \nActually, I have a feeling that is the case.\n \nI increase my magic power on [Dragon's Eye] even
more.\n \n"More details on the high-level
curse."\n \n[A dragon or comparable creature's curse was
likely used.]\n \nJust as I thought.\n \nPerhaps this is the [Dragon Fang's Curse].\n \nIt's the same illness I was suffering from.
