Chapter 806
"Whether an Awakener or not, one shouldn't judge based on appearances alone. You're correct."
Myra did not show any anger. It was a feat in itself to maintain such composure in a situation where anyone else, especially in a state of poor health, would have become easily irritable.
It was, in a way, a quality befitting a great leader.
'Yet, in her previous life, she remained unnoticed in a corner of the Imperial Palace, her very existence forgotten by all.'
Yuder reminisced about the Myra from his past memories, now so faint and distant.
Even if there was no love between her and Katchian, a mutually respectful relationship at the level of a typical noble couple would have allowed her to display these qualities. Even if not as a Duchess, perhaps she could have achieved greater things.
'Well, but considering Myra as an individual, it's better this way, isn't it?'
Thinking so, Yuder knocked and pushed open the door of the medical unit.
"Sir Yuder? What brings you here?"
"What's up? Why are you here? I'm swamped."
Lusan and Enon, as always, were there. The only difference now was two other guests who had arrived earlier.
"Uhmm..."
Or should it be said, one more creature or person, uncertain which, was also there.
The early visitors to the medical unit were Pruelle and Revlin, holding the cat Nipolen. They greeted Yuder with a happy expression, but were startled to see Myra, dressed in black, following him.
"I'm not here for myself. Princess Myra of Herne who is visiting the Commander is feeling unwell, so I brought her here. Could she be seen immediately?"
"Now? But this cat hasn't finished its check-up yet."
Enon, responding indifferently, looked towards Myra. Even behind her black veil, his piercing yellow eyes seemed to see through everything, causing Myra to be momentarily disconcerted. Immediately, anxious voices erupted around them.
"No, if Lady Myra of Herne is unwell, we must give way. Our Nippy's issue isn't urgent, so please go ahead, Pharmacist."
"Yes, I think that's best too!"
Pruelle and Revlin said, causing Enon to squint his eyes in surprise.
"What? You guys were clinging to my robe, insisting I finish with your brother first. Why this sudden change?"
"...It was the desperation of not knowing Nippy had overeaten. I never thought this picky eater would take so much from others. But now that we know it's not serious."
Pruelle answered seriously, but Yuder noticed his slightly slower voice and the faint blush on his ears.
'He's embarrassed, it seems.'
Taking advantage of a relaxed Pruelle, Nipolen sprang away.
"Oops, Nippy!"
The small cat, who recognized and was particularly comfortable with Awakeners, especially Yuder, slipped past Myra and rubbed against Yuder's leg, his way of greeting. Understanding this, Yuder, as usual, quietly nodded in response.
"Hello there."
The cat was then caught by his brother. Pruelle, looking sheepish, apologized.
“Sorry... or rather, my bad. Your pants are now covered in fur. Is that okay?"
"It's fine."
Dirtier things than fur had clung to him before; this was nothing in comparison.
"Nippy, please stop startling my heart like this. I've lost count of how many times you've frightened me today."
As Pruelle sighed, Enon stood up, having made a decision.
"Well, in that case, I'll start with the others first. They do seem to be on the verge of collapsing. Little one, you come along too."
"Yes."
Lusan nonchalantly accepted the nickname and approached. Myra, still in a state of surprise, found herself seated between the pharmacist and the Priest.
"I appreciate the consideration, but I'm fine. There's no need to see me early. I don't wish to take away the time of those who came before me."
"Too bad you didn't say that earlier. I hate having to reverse decisions once they're made. Let's just get this over with."
Enon retorted with a grimace, giving Myra a once-over. She was taken aback again by his rude tone and the peculiar atmosphere that somehow made it difficult to argue.
Regardless of her shock, Enon and Lusan asked her questions with the same demeanor they would use with the members of the Cavalry.
"Lady, did you get enough sleep last night?"
"Because of work... I only fell asleep just before dawn and woke up soon after sunrise."
"And the day before?"
"That was similar too."
"That's too little sleep. Have you had any chest pains or headaches?"
"I often have headaches, so it wasn't unusually worse. Though, I did have some chest pain before going to bed tonight..."
"Hmm."
After finishing all the questions, Enon drew his conclusion.
"It seems you were born with limited vitality and have been overextending yourself. What do you think?"
"Yes, I have the same impression."
"The best thing is to eat well, sleep well, and rest, but in my experience, those who need to hear that don't come to us in the first place."
Yuder felt as if Enon was glaring at him as he said this.
"I'll give you some medicine. Take one here and continue with the rest for about a week. And after the little one here gives you some light, you should feel better."
"Lady, please excuse me for a moment."
While Enon went to prepare the medicine, Lusan seamlessly infused Myra with divine power. Amazed by the immense divine power emanating from the young Priest, Myra was taken aback.
"Are you a high-ranking Priest from some diocese?"
"Ha, hardly. I'm just an ordinary Priest assigned to the Cavalry.”
Despite using so much divine power, Lusan didn't seem out of breath, just relaxed. Color quickly returned to Myra's pale face. As soon as Lusan stepped back, she exhaled deeply and exclaimed in admiration.
"That's truly remarkable. I've felt the divine power of many priests, but never anything like this. It felt like being embraced in the arms of an angel."
"Oh, you flatter me too much."
Lusan blushed, fumbling with embarrassment, but couldn't hide his pleased smile.
"Ah, you're definitely better now. Here is the medicine."
Enon returned and handed Myra the medicine. She hesitated slightly upon seeing the container filled with white pills.
"What are these made of?"
"Kukulip root, Alabacho leaves, and a bit of honey."
"All ingredients beneficial for vitality restoration. Kukulip is a particularly rare herb to find naturally..."
Seeing Myra's immediate recognition of the ingredients, Enon looked surprised.
"Hmm. Most nobles don't bother with the names of herbs.”
"My respected sister is fond of growing herbs. That's why I studied them. Anyone can learn if they study."
"That's true. It's just that no one bothers to do it."
Enon's attitude visibly softened. Yuder surmised that this 'respected sister' must be the Empress.
'I knew that Myra was one of the Empress' contacts in the Herne family, but they seem closer than I had anticipated.'
Without hesitation, Myra popped one of Enon's pills into her mouth, swallowed it, and then stood up to offer her thanks.
"Thank you. Duke Peletta mentioned that the Cavalry's medical unit possesses skills rarely seen elsewhere, and indeed, their reputation is well-deserved. I also extend my gratitude to the two of you for giving up your time for me."
"Oh, no, it's nothing."
Revlin, who had been watching Lady Myra El Herne with wide, sparkling eyes of fascination, shook his head in surprise at being directly addressed. But Myra's words did not end there.
"Excuse me for asking, but I've been curious since earlier... is the cat being held by that person over there actually a human?"
“...”
A bold question prompted a moment of silence in the medical unit.
"I thought about why you referred to it as your brother, and that was the only explanation I could come up with. If my question is too forward, I apologize. It's just that I can't help being curious."
After a brief pause, Pruelle nodded with a smile.
"Yes, that's right. This is my brother. Originally a human, he has the ability to transform into a cat."
"That's remarkable. I'd like to greet him, but it might be difficult since we've just met. Thank you for answering my question."
"No, it's I who should say that. You're the first to realize that upon first sight. Usually, no one pays attention whether I call the cat my brother or anything else."

Leonardo Blaine, the true war hero of the Raina Logia Empire and the commander of the Armsilver 11th Squad, is dishonorably discharged for disobeying orders during the final battle that could have led the Empire to victory in the territorial war. People criticize and point fingers at him, and after being released on parole from prison, he disappears without a trace.
Three years later, his name has been forgotten by the world. The Council has been persistently pursuing him, but he has proven difficult to capture. Frustrated by this, Hugo Agrizendro, the commander of the Council's army, decides to personally apprehend him.
"Since when have you been watching me?"
Leonardo was calculative and astute, so it wouldn't be surprising if he had been observing Hugo for some time now. However, Leonardo's answer was something that even Hugo had not anticipated.
"From the very beginning."
[BL] The Mist (Same author as Turning)
In the autumn of his 18th year, after winning the high school kendo championship finals, an unexpected accident occurred.
Due to that incident, Kang Mu-heon lost one of his legs, his closest friend, and his promising future. He closed off his heart and shut himself away alone.
A few years later, the world's first real virtual reality game <THE MIST> was announced, where even those with physical disabilities could play in healthy bodies.
By chance, Kang Mu-heon encountered it and began a new life as the mage Kapros, facing unexpected meetings, reunions, and days of change....
***
"Why was someone like you born into this world to make me so miserable? Do you understand when I say it like this?! You were born with talent for the sword, a bright personality, everything - you must have been laughing at me always lagging behind! Did you even know how pathetic I felt because of your stupid hypocrisy? A genius? What does any of that matter!"
Seung-jo's cries stabbed at his heart, wailing as if he were crying even though he wasn't, but there was no time to think further. He quickly clutched my stomach, got up, and ran towards him.
He looked surprised for a moment, but he was desperate.
Just as the car was about to reach us, he shoved Seung-jo hard. Right after Seung-jo fell and rolled away with wide, startled eyes—
Screech!
Bang! With an impact that felt like his whole body was being shattered, he flew through the air.
And in that brief yet long moment of floating in space, he remembered his reflection in Seung-jo's eyes for the last time.......
***
[ Then in THE MIST, may you become the master of infinite possibilities. ]
Whoosh!
When his vision returned after everything went white, he was standing in the middle of a bustling town. Amidst the clamor, countless people were busily going about their business here and there.
He looked down at himself, standing dazed and wearing clothes of unknown origin. When he touched the sleeve, he felt the texture of fabric as real as reality. His hair felt the same, and even when he touched the wall of a nearby house, he could clearly feel the solid, cold surface.
Is this... VT?
It seemed like a joke. It truly felt as if he had come to another world and was touching everything.
As he stood there unable to think due to the shock, he suddenly remembered the biggest reason he had decided to play this game, and snapped back to attention. His two legs were still as they had been when he first stood.
'Can I really walk?'
He first stepped out with his left foot, then very slowly put strength into his heavy right foot. It felt like cold sweat was running down his spine.
And then,
He lifted it,
Moved it,
And took another step to touch the ground again.
So easily. As if there had never been any problem with this leg from the beginning.
"Ah..."
At that moment, something that was neither joy nor emotion shot up his spine. Suddenly feeling a lump in his throat, he lowered his head and leaned against the wall. His right foot, bearing his weight, was doing its job perfectly.
"..."
Holding back the tightness in his throat, he took another step.
It didn't hurt. It wasn't heavy. His leg was no longer a useless piece of wood that ached.
Damn it, to be able to walk so easily like this.
To be able to run so easily like this.
He had wished even in his dreams for the day to come when he could walk and run like this again.
And so he walked again, kept walking, slowly getting faster, until finally he started running like a madman through the entire town.

"Kap. ...There seems to be a misunderstanding. That's not what I meant."
Just as he was thinking he should throw a punch, Yu-wan sighed with a troubled look and said.
A misunderstanding? How could it be a misunderstanding when he said with his own mouth that he didn't think of me as a friend?
"I didn't expect to receive such a question suddenly, so my explanation was probably too brief. Let me rephrase."
Yu-wan reached out his hand, his face completely changed from before - intense yet resolute - as he stared at him. As he didn't reject the hand suddenly approaching his face and kept his gaze fixed, his cool large hand touched his cheek completely.
A shiver ran down his spine at that moment.
"I'm sorry to say this to you, but I don't see you only as a friend. ...This is the complete answer."
