I carried the unconscious man to the hollowed house.
I lay him on the bed to see how it goes.
The man was breathing heavily, like “Ha, ha.”
“What should I do. . .”
When I put my hand on his forehead, it was extremely hot.
I wonder if this is okay.
I get overwhelmed by the unfamiliar situation.
“W-what should I do. . .Oh. . .”
That’s it.
I’m pretty sure this person had luggage.
Is there any medicine in that bag?
I go outside.
There was the wounded wyvern I had brought with me.
Attached to the saddle on his back is a bag that seems to be his luggage.
“Hmm. There’s no medicine. . .”
I rummaged through it, but the bag contained only simple portable food and a towel.
“Gyua. . .”
The dragon saw me and cried weakly.
It’s the same with him, but I have to take care of this child too.
“Wait a minute.”
I brought a few fish that I had set aside from my house storage.
“Look. Eat.”
“Gyaa!”
The wyvern started eating the fish I gave it with great momentum.
A river fish that is disproportionately small for its large mouth is swallowed whole.
“Gya, gyaa!”
I wonder if this is his way of urging me to ‘give me more’?
Maybe so.
“I’m sorry. I don’t have any more. But I’ll catch a lot of it later!”
This child is also badly injured, but if he has this much appetite, he’ll be fine.
I admire the dragon’s vitality.
“Anyway, right now, it’s that guy. . .”
I went back to the bed to take care of him.
The blue-haired man was wearing luxurious armor.
But I can see blood stains through the cracks on the sides.
This must be an injury.
Is the fever from that?
“I have to clean the wound.”
If it festers or gets infected, you can’t even look at it.
Let’s wipe his body.
“Wait, excuse me.”
I turned his big body over.
I try to take off his armor.
But how am I supposed to take this off?
There is a clicking sound, and the hinge comes off.
Through trial and error, I was finally able to remove the armor.
I also take off the blood soaked inner shirt.
The clotted blood stuck to his skin and became crunchy.
It looks painful, and I involuntarily frown.
“. . . uh, . . . . .uh”
What!?
What is it now!?
“Oh, I’m sorry!”
Did you notice it!?
Somehow I apologize reflexively.
“. . . .Ha, . . .haa”
What is it?
Did you just groan?
For a moment, I panicked, thinking that he had just woken up.
“. . . This. . . this is. . .”
What came out from under the armor was a muscular body.
Beads of sweat are floating on the tanned body.
I wiped off the sweat with a towel I borrowed from his bag.
I wiped the clotted blood with hot water.
“Uh, wah. . . What, somehow. . . What can I say. . . ”
My heart throbs randomly.
It’s a big and strong body.
When I stare at it, my cheeks turn red.
“Wait, just a little bit. . .”
As a test, I put my palm on his chest.
“Fuwaaa. . . !?”
It’s hot.
My heart is pounding.
“. . . this, this is. . . .”
I look at him again as he repeats his rough breathing.
I wiped the saliva that came out before I knew it with my sleeve.
A night has passed
Today is another sunny morning.
“Let’s see, what about your fever?”
I put my hand on his forehead.
After all, he still has a fever.
By the way, the clothes that were worn under the armor were properly washed and dried before being put back on.
I felt regretful, but I can’t let him sleep shirtless forever.
“Hmm, this is bad. . .”
He is still breathing heavily.
If this continues, this man will only wear out his physical strength.
I have to lower his fever and get him to eat some food somehow.
“Medicine, medicine. . . After all, it’s medicine. . .”
I want to get some sort of antipyretic somehow.
This may be the time to make up my mind.
“. . . Good. Let’s infiltrate the village.”
It’s the village I ran away from.
There must be at least one medicine in the village.
Come to think of it, I was forced to do farm work over there for days, but I didn’t receive any compensation.
And of course, retirement benefits.
I don’t think there’s a problem if you give me a little medicine instead.
If it’s decided, all that is left is to execute it.
I jumped out and spread my wings.
“Oh, Dragon Wing! Let’s go! The aim is the village chief’s house!”
I accelerated through the sky and headed for the village.
Asahi, you might qualify as a pervert…
