Chapter: 105

‘Innes fever.’

It was an endemic disease common in the northeast of the continent.

In the past six years of living in the East, Astelle has witnessed silver plum blossoms like that several times.

And at that time, new tombs began to appear.

‘If you take medicine within the time limit when you get sick, you’ll be better.’

Innes fever is a disease that can be easily cured with only medicine.

However, poor farmers were often victims of sickness because they could not take medicine.

This is because there was no way to make medicines in the old countryside where there were no pharmacists even though herbs were scattered around them.

‘Fortunately, there seems to be no big deal yet.’

Someone knocked on the door.

“Lady, I brought refreshments.”

The old maid brought the teacup and cookies to the tray.

Theor quickly ran toward it.

On the tray was hot chocolate with a sweet chocolate scent.

“Can I eat it?”

“Sure, Young Master.”

The maid handed Theor a small cup of hot chocolate.

“Thank you.”

A smile appeared in the maid’s wrinkled face as Theor took the hot chocolate cup.

She also handed a teacup to Astelle.

“This is to warm your body.”

It was a fragrant herbal tea.

“Thank you.”

The moment she took the teacup from the maid, the wrinkled fingers grasping the teacup touched Astelle’s fingers slightly.
