"Oh please come have a seat." Silver sat up straight and made sure to tack in all his buttons, and saw his reflection in the mirror to set his hair straight. While, the doctor sat in front of him, Silver's started feeling chest bumps, and he was internally screaming to make sure to everything looked well.
"Hello, I believe you are seeing me for the first time, my name is Lisa Mekar. I work as a doctor in the 3rd eastern district, it's a pleasure seeing you in good health." The lady introduced herself with a positive smile.
"No!...no, I mean. I should be the one happy seeing you. You have been taking care of me, I sincerely thank you for all your help and time."
"The credit goes more to your niece, she is so little with less to no memory of her past yet she works so maturely when it comes to money and management."
Silver looked Sera who was standing near the windows, she arms closed the signature look of superiority on her face, it seems she did like to praised a lot. Not a bit of humbless, unlike her mother.
"Well, my niece is a lot smarter than kids for these days. She lost her parents quite early, that's why she was self-sufficient. I do help her, but she does quite good as she is." Silver bit his tongue immediately after he said that.
"Damn It! I didn't ask her what her parent's are upto. What if Alsana told her a different story." It was a slip up too big, the curtains were off, those eyes will surely it, maybe hear it too.
puff..puff..
The boast made Sera even more prouder, as if Silver didn't just mention her parents dying. He was lucked out. Seeing the proud smile, Lisa leaned a bit closer to Silver, which made his mind have unwanted thoughts. ( What if she was going to kiss him?!)
"I don't think you should talking about her parents like that. Kids growing up, if they do not have parents, they shouldn't believe having parents if some sort of weakness. It affects there lives and thoughts when they grow up." Instead of stew of love, Silver received the potion of wisdom.
" I am sorry. I will take care of that in the future."
"There is chance she is Alsana's contact. She found a friendly nearby doctor. That's all."
At the apology, she smiled and took herself back, " I think we should preceded with your heath now. How is leg doing and back doing?"
"Ahh... my legs are quite weak at the moment-" Lisa began noting down all Silver had to say.
"For the my back, it's difficult to get up once. The arms, and rest of the body are doing quite well, here are certains times when I feel pain in my palms if I try to form a fist. That's all."
Lisa stopped noting down once the Silver done telling his report.
"I see. Well, your injuries were very internal, like you were under some heavy physical toll and your hand was showing sign of some brutal fight. DO you remember that happened while you were escaping from the north?"
"We were quite a rich family, we live more near the mountain side in the north. Trying to stay with minimal contact with the outside world, when the wall fell we had no idea. We tried to escape; but things didn't go, well. I don't remember much, but I was maybe trapped under some cargo, I tried to move, and then had a fight with some monster which was very injured.... maybe it something entirely different I don't know."
「Skill Activated: Master Jester.
Your facial impressions, eye moment and heart beat match the emotions you are trying to speak about. Skill duration: 3 minutes.」
" I have to perfect skill to lie." Silver looked at Sera how was staring at the blue screen; but with a single exchange of eyes. Sera knew what she had to do and she left the room.s
"Oh... I am sorry. I didn't want to hurt your feeling by making you remember all that was happened. I reported, your survival to the guards, it seems that no else is rescued from that area that the lady how brought you here mentioned."
"So, they now that I am here. Guards must be coming soon to investigate me, since I've woken up now."
"Oh.. Theresa. The lady's name, she is loyal worker to our some. She has taken care of Sera while she was young, she has a role in our life. Maybe she went to away to find more people at our house. I know that she will be fine."
"I see, you put a lot of trust in Lady Theresa."
"Well, sometimes you know a person enough to trust them with your lives."
"I guess you are correct. Now, for your medication, I suggest you try to walk and in order to get your leg muscles fixed, for your back I need you do some stretches and for palm, I just suggest don't get into a fight."
"hmm.. aren't you going to use some sort of healing magic.. or maybe a portion to help my recovery?"
"Huh?"
The question left Lisa very puzzled, like Silver had asked her do break the wall of the north. Lisa expression turned into a puzzled smile as he began talking.
"Was magic used to heal wounds and fix illness in your house?"
"No, We used to use herbs to make potions, or buy them from a merchant." That's how it went, in Silver's world is there was no healer nearby, but seemed things were very different in this world, because Lisa's face became very concerned.
"You have to be kidding me, maybe that's your recovering is not fast for your age. Potions are alcohol in ceratins terms, it hurts your body's internal parts and make you age faster. Relying on potions is a insane thing to do from any perspective."
"Potions are harmful to the body. That was the last thing, I want to hear." This was the biggest pushback, if portions were off the table, then Silver was already 100x times weaker.
"And for the magic part, there is no healing magic in this world. Not one that, I know off. You can only naturally heal your injuries, boost the healing my learning some aura balance. Magic and potions is a big no unless absolutely necessary." Lisa concern was visible on her face, she was definitely more worried about Sera than Silver.
Lisa got up from her seat, searched her bag. She brought out a set of tablets, and vial of some medicine and placed it on the table.
"Take all these tablets after you have done dinner. Try to talk around the room, and do some stretches, if you have any further problems, take this tonic it will reliefs your pain, I will be back after two days now due to another appointment. I will be seeing you."
This time the conversation was fast and quickly wrapped as she didn't want to talk about anything with a maniac. She bowed once and left the room, before Silver could deliver a hint of gratitude.
"Oh well. Now, even the most good-looking women I know hates he now. What could I have done?" Silver's back hurt from the pain, and so did his palm. The potions were putting a much larger toll than before, he had been out for 1 week after 2 strong potions.
"Potions are poison, that sort of magical world is this? In my world, you are either born with healing magic or use potions to heal yourself and take a small rest to fix the toll .And what did she mean by aura balance?"
The other world was good and terrible in their own way, mana everywhere not enough power to wield it, Silver had to adapt fast. Because, he was remained that in the blindness of beauty he had forgotten his mission.
He tried to get up and stand straight, but the pain in his leg couldn't bear and he slipped once again, and fell sideways. " I am going to hit my head on the bed!"
"Gotcha." Luckily for him, before he could get hurt, the beauty did come back held him; for a second he wished to hold her. Her faces were closer, he could feel her breath and their eyes locked into each other.
She immediately pulled back, and set Silver on his bed. " Are you okay?"
"I am very fine, thanks to you." Silver answered with a smile.
