So now, as he was the one who caused this, he was no better than her family as well.
“Molitia.”
He stroked her cheek. The soft cheeks were quite hollow as she couldn’t really eat much. He didn’t hate the small bumps on her body. In fact, it was very pleasing to see her pupils reflecting himself as they talked face to face. He had a separate bedroom to himself, but he would always seek out her bedroom every day.
Their time was still short, but she already had an influence on him.
Raven didn’t want to show anyone how she was in a state of unconsciousness where she was muttering nonsense. He tried to do everything by himself, albeit with the least amount of tending.
He did not care how far he was behind for work. It had been a long time since he had forgotten his aide, Terrance who might be crying his heart out back at the Templars. (T/N: A place for the knights)
Raven’s eyes were fixated on her. Having never known how fragile human beings could be had made him engraved the recent events in his very bones at every second and minute.

He murmured softly. Whenever he lifted her body and gazed upon her purple eyes, it seemed as though he could endure anything, no matter what it was.
He placed her slender hand against his cheek. His cheeks were reddish due to the hot temperature of the room, but they were nothing compared to her own temperature.
“Stay alive.”
Yes. At the moment, it was more important for her to open her eyes rather than pursuing this feeling. He continued nursing after her until the dark, which then swallowed those strange feelings whole.

How sick she must have been. At some point, Molitia began coming back to her senses and struggled as she tried to move her body that felt much too heavy. Since she hadn’t moved for quite a long time, even lifting a finger had made her sweat plenty.
As soon as she managed to move her hands, Molitia slowly tried to open her eyes.
“No, it’s heavy…”
The blanket that was weighing on her was too heavy. Even at a glance, there were more than just one layer. Not long after she had woken up, she straight away turned her head when she felt like dying from the crushing sensation. There was this desperate need for someone to rescue her from the sweltering heat.
“Somebody, get me…”
Her eyes rolled urgently around the room, but there was no one to be seen. Had it not been for the heat that was ablaze, she might have thought that she was still in a dream.
At that precise moment, Molitia could hear the creaking open of a door before a cautious tread had stepped inside. As Molitia was unable to see properly because of those heavy blankets, she immediately gave a shout.
“Is anyone there?”
Since she hadn’t spoken in such a long time, her voice sounded quite hoarse. Molitia straight away bowed her head in order to hide her embarrassment.
“Ma, Madame?”
“Oh, is that you, Lili?”
When she had realized that it was Lili through the sound of her voice, Molitia’s face quickly brightened up.

“Madame, Madame!”
Lili straight away burst into tears as she instantly approached Molitia, dropping everything that was held in her hands.
“Madame, are you okay? Are you alright? The sun isn’t too harsh for you to open your eyes?”
“That’s, Lili…”
“Huk, this isn’t the time. I’ll get the doctor right away!”
Madame’s awake! She screamed while rushing out of the bedroom. Watching in the direction where she ran off quickly had left Molitia with a blank look that was painted all over her face.
“Get the blankets off me…”
The quilts had finally disappeared from Molitia’s body only after ten layers had been laid aside.
The doctor who had arrived turned up to be quite different from the one in Molitia’s memory. She wondered if she had remembered wrong, but this new doctor was female.
Well, it was not that big of a deal. Molitia had thought lightly. The female doctor then continued to examine her before smiling with much relief.
