Chapter 208 Ivan's Past
"Sorry...I didn't notice..."
Xiling tried to make her tone friendlier and helped up the human woman she had knocked down.
"I'm a druid, perhaps I can help you with some healing spells..."
"Oh, no, no, I am a pastor myself!
Larel, a servant of Tyr, the god of justice, and a mid-level priest, sends greetings to the followers of the god of nature. "
He brushed off the dust that had just clung to his body, and was about to rebuke the other person for his rashness;
But when he heard the pleasant female voice coming from under the tall and thin hood, Larriel, who was both a face lover and a voice control, immediately calmed down.
"Good day, Mielikki's servant Xiling greets you."
"Ms. Xiling, you are a druid.
I have an old acquaintance who recently became a druid as well.”
"Oh, is it?"
"Well, the human Ivan, Ivan Nolihus, I wonder if Miss Xiling has heard of it, but the connection between you druids is much closer than that between us priests."
"Ai--hmm, not very familiar, probably a druid from another forest..."
Xiling, who was still angry, started talking nonsense for some unknown reason.
Anyway, Mielikki never forbids her followers from telling a little lie.
"Oh, that's such a pity. I was planning to find out what happened to Alvin after he became a druid...
By the way, Miss Xiling, I am about to give some cough patients a divine treatment. If you happen to be free, could you come and help me?"
I also want to find out about his life before he became a druid... Xiling thought to herself.
Then he raised his head and spoke to the limp human priest.
"my pleasure!"
……
"Human pervert! It's all your fault!
Now my sister is missing!"
The short half-elf looked around anxiously, but his sister was nowhere to be seen.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ivan, I didn't know this would cause Miss Xiling to misunderstand..."
Annie kindly admitted her mistake, but the tone of her voice made Ivan feel a little teary.
"Yani~Yani~"
A patrolman ran over from a distance and spoke to Yani breathlessly.
"I just asked the guards near the hanging ladder, and none of them saw a hooded half-elf."
"It seems that Miss Xiling is still in the town..."
"What's wrong, Alvin? You're here with a bunch of people to cause trouble!"
Leia was just wandering around with nothing to do after playing around in the prisoner area and trying to get news about the elves of the next moon.
"what!"
The short Lian opened her mouth wide and pointed at the Moon Elf Mage with excitement on her face.
"Frei's teacher's big bootlicker! Why are you here?!"
Noticing this short half-elf whom she had met once before, Leia gave her a displeased look.
"How rude! Has the elven blood in your body completely made you forget the elven etiquette?"
"etiquette?
Oh my, I really don’t have any manners!
But I also know that it's not polite to pester a lady for hundreds of years!"
"What do you know as a little kid who is not even an adult?
That is pure love, pure love, you understand? "
Yes, I especially understand...
Watching the adult and the child who started bickering as soon as they met, Ivan expressed his sincere gratitude to Leia for attracting little Lian's fire for him.
“Sir Ivan, Miss Xiling must still be in the town.
I will have the Halfling Patrol start searching for Miss Xiling, but the most urgent matter right now is probably the patients in the isolation ward..."
I feel that Lian, who has met Leia, will at least be very safe.
Alvin didn't think much about it and planned to go to the isolation ward to find a way to completely cure those coughing patients.
After all, the sooner Neild's crisis is resolved, the sooner we will have the capital to talk to Huiyao City.
……
After finishing the treatment of several patients and using up all their spell slots, the two returned to Larriel's temporary hut.
Since Larriel was very concerned about the patient from the beginning, Annie, the temporary leader of the Nield military force, lifted the restrictions on the prisoner's movements and even thoughtfully arranged a decent residence for the clean-loving priest.
“Hoohoo…it’s really hard…”
Larrel poured two glasses of water and invited Xiling, who had also been busy, to sit down with him.
"There are too few divine spellcasters in the Nield area. Except for Annie who knows a little bit of the holy knight's divine spells, the other spellcasters are probably all in the prisoner area..."
Xiling took the metal cup of water, took a sip, and then immediately frowned.
She was not used to the taste of rust in the water.
"Is the druid Ivan you mentioned earlier also a prisoner here?"
“That’s not the case. It should be Annie… the current person in charge of Nield, who invited the guest back.
It's quite a coincidence that Sir Awen's reputation in Brilliant City was not very good before.
God knows how he became a druid..."
"Bad reputation? Is that a very bad human being?"
Xiling suppressed her pounding heart while trying to get the information she wanted.
The half-elf lady, who had been studying doctrine and combat diligently, was particularly bad at things that required talking.
"Bad? Not really, except that he has a bit of a bad taste.
In fact, before I and my other playmates left Ivan, we all thought he was a good guy who was a little naughty..."
"oh oh?"
"Well, I remember when Irwin's old butler was still serving him, Irwin often played tricks on him, like putting bugs in the kettle, playing disappearance during dinner, and so on.
But when the old butler left the Nolihus mansion, Ivan got a large pile of gold coins from somewhere and secretly stuffed them into the old butler's backpack.
At that time, it was Xiuman and I who were responsible for stuffing the gold coins..."
"What a... strange human being..."
“It’s even stranger!
This guy is particularly slow in dealing with men and women. Many young ladies who were attracted to this single nobleman have been turned down by Ivan.
Don't look at me, I don't like that pervert.
The most interesting thing is that such a human being who is considered to be insulated from love would actually do such a thing in the Ral Temple..."
"you do not say……"
Just as the two of them were talking more and more off-topic and Xiling almost turned into gossip girl Lian, Ivan was in trouble in the isolation ward.
If he wants to cure pneumoconiosis, the magic skills he currently possesses are totally inadequate.
Even if there was a legendary spellcaster here, he would be helpless against this disease that is entangled with the internal organs.
Divine magic can speed up the wound recovery process and increase the body's vitality.
However, when it comes to foreign objects in the body, the healing effect of divine magic is greatly reduced.
And the silica that sticks to the lungs is not a non-degradable foreign body...
As for removing the foreign object - Ivan suddenly had an idea. He turned around and took a previously used breathing tube from Annie, then yelled at the elf wizard who was still arguing with Lian.
"Old licker! Find a spell that can freeze this pipe!"
