“Riley……”
It’s morning. When I woke up, I immediately saw Riley there before me even though I was still wearing my pajamas.
“Yes, ojou-sama. What can I do for you?”
“My rival hasn’t reached the level of a yam yet, she’s still a potato, right?”
At hearing my question, Riley touched my forehead, opened my eyelids, and also pried open my mouth to inspect the back of my throat.
“Ojou-sama, I’m really sorry to say this, but…… Ojou-sama has a cold.”
“A cold? The disease that humans suffer from? Riley, you’re really talented for being able to diagnose it.”
“That’s right, ojou-sama. Please, calm down…… I mean, not that, please get some rest.”
And just like that, I laid in bed for a really long time.
As for my Hendra improvement plan, that pig girl Marie said “onee-sama can rely on me for anything!” but I really wonder if it’ll be alright to leave things to her.
A cold, a cold, huh. I don’t really understand it too well, but it seems that the cold bacteria in my body are being resisted and killed off. Good. Kill them all off inside my body. Since my current father was worried about me, he had a doctor come and see me (who I’d never seen before) and prescribe some medicine for me to drink, and he also left a cold wet towel for me to cool my head off with.
“It’s the first time I’ve ever felt this weak.”
Human bodies are really so fragile. It’s just like when I was first setting up my personal bodyguard troops, I was so angry then at how my body wouldn’t move the way I wanted it to.
In the first place, it’s so inconvenient that I can’t even transform. When I used to be a Demon King, sometimes I would transform into a tough guy, and sometimes I would turn into a beautiful girl in order to fully enjoy the fruits of conquest. When I was defeated by the Hero, my third and final form that I had been using would have been able to conquer this world so easily.
“Mmm. So this is what it’s like to become weak, huh.”
I have a hardy spirit within a tough body. Even if my body’s changed, my spirit will not change. My eyelids gradually became heavier at nature’s beckoning.
“A, are you awake? I’ll be coming in now. I’m here because I heard that my fiance has become bedridden with an illness.”
It’s the Hero. – Whoops, it’s Heath.
“Ahh, you were still sleeping? – I want to be with Rose like this as well.”
He leaned over my bed, and began stroking my hair.
“……Heath?”
“It’s the first time I’ve heard you say my name in such a long time. You always call me Your Highness or a brat.”
That does seem to be the case, and just as I was about to respond, I noticed that Heath seemed to be holding something in his hands.
“What’s that?”
“It’s an ice crystal that I got from defeating an ice elemental. ……I’ve been secretly training to try and get stronger without Rose knowing it so that I can be welcomed by you as a better match for you.”
An ice elemental is a type of dragon that lives in a group together in the northern lakes. Since when has Heath gotten so strong, I wonder?
“This is for you.”
He placed the ice crystal on the table.
“……That country b.u.mpkin little girl…”
“Country b.u.mpkin?”
“……Are you sure you don’t want to give this to Hendra Rickson-sama instead?”
I’m so jealous.
This thing known as a cold is so troublesome.
—.
“Ahh, it’s fine, Rose. If it comes to that, I’ll just put on a wedding dress myself.”
Heath said so while laughing as he left my room.
……Huh?
Huh?
