The Duchy’s Madman

On the way back to the mansion.

Arthur stroked Irene’s bangs as she slept, using his lap as a pillow.

[“She’s a pretty girl, Arthur!”]

Undine, who was sitting on his shoulder, smiled.

Arthur smiled back at her and said.

“Yeah, she’s a pretty girl.”

Arthur held out a finger in response.

The tiny, winged Undine sat on his finger.

Then they started having small talk.

[‘When I first saw him, he suddenly asked me to sign a contract, so I thought he was rude.’]

[‘But he doesn’t seem like a bad guy.’]

‘She was a more talkative water spirit than I thought.’

‘Well… since We’ve made a contract, a little chatter like this is no big deal.’

‘As expected, it was because of the location that it didn’t work out.’ 

‘I had to travel all the way to Lake Heinen before I could make a contract with Undine.’

‘And this contract implied quite a lot’

‘Undine’s powers can cure a poisoned body.’

If that happens, my body will be treated several years earlier than in the past.

‘It makes a difference even if you wield the sword for 10 years, but it will make a huge difference if you heal your body 10 years earlier.’

As Arthur smiled at his accomplishment of the day, the limousine he was riding in gradually slowed down.

At the same time, the majestic mansion of the Bavaria family came into view.

After waking up the sleeping Irene and entering the mansion, Arthur had a pleasant dinner with Yonel.

“Maybe next time we can go together,” Arthur said, “with good food and a mat.”

After completing the day’s schedule like that, Arthur went to his  room and stretched out.

From the day he had returned from the past to this day, he felt like he had the longest schedule of his life.

With that feeling, he asked Undine, who was pacing around the room.

“Undine, what do you think about my physical condition?”

Undine turned her head

She narrowed her gaze at Arthur for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise.

[“No… Arthur, what the hell did you do to your body to make it look like this?”]

“It’s quite bad, isn’t it?”

[“Yes! It’s not just bad, it’s…. completely wrecked!”]

“So I want to cure it, do you think you can? I heard that Undine has the ability to cure it.”

Undine hesitantly replied.

[“…Arthur and I don’t have a strong bond yet, so I can’t heal you completely”].

“Then?”

[“But I can heal you steadily!”]

Arthur nodded.

At that moment, an indescribable feeling of refreshment runs through his body.

‘Hmmm…. It’s somewhat different from the holy power of the priests.’

After finishing treatment, Undine whispers.

[Arthur, I can see an earth spirit Gnome over there].

[Over there in the flowerpot. Can’t you see him?]

Arthur turns his head at her words.

The same spirit he had seen when he had beaten up Bill a few days earlier was poking his head out.
