"Huh, w-what happened?" (Fia)
When I raised my voice in surprise, Cerulean and Dory shook their heads in silence.
"...Don't worry about it." (Cerulean)
Cerulean's face was completely drained of blood as he said this, so I got worried and approached him.
"No, of course I care! Well, if you look closely, you both look terrible." (Fia)
However, Cerulean slowly raised one hand and waved it slightly.
"It's okay, I know what's causing it. Dory and I... have a phobia of patients." (Cerulean)
"Ph-phobia of patients!?" (Fia)
When I looked at Dolly in shock at hearing the word for the first time, he stumbled and rested his back against the wall behind him.
No matter how I looked at him, Dory didn't look okay, but when he bravely looked up, a smile appeared on his face.
"Yes, it's a rare phobia, so don't worry about it. There's no reason or logic, and I just get scared when I see a sick person lying on a bed. Moreover, the symptoms are most severe when I see a woman around 20 years old. Looks like I'm having bad luck today. ...Oh, I'm going to throw up." (Dory)
While saying that, Dory slid his body down and sat flat on the floor.
Seeing this, Cerulean, whose face was as pale as paper, called out to encourage him.
"Hold on, Dory! And look closely. Her hair is brown, not blue-silver. It's okay, we will never see her final moment again." (Cerulean)
However, Cerulean's voice became quieter and weaker, and he himself stumbled and fell to his knees, hugging his knees.
I got really worried when I saw the two of them barely able to stand up, but Cerulean weakly waved his hand as if to tell them not to worry again.
"We're really fine. Rather, if you're worried about me, please finish your business quickly. I'm the one who took you out today, so I'm responsible for your safety. No matter how bad my health is, I'm not going to leave the room without you." (Cerulean)
Well, even though Cerulean was a child, he was a gentleman.
Impressed, I quickly took it back to the pillow and looked down at Estelle.
...Now, I wonder what's going on.
From what I'd seen, it didn't seem like there's any immediate danger to her life, so I thought I'd let her recover a bit and then asked Charlotte or Priscilla to come and heal her at a later date.
As I thought about this, Estelle began to cough in pain.
The maid who was waiting hurriedly lifted Esther's upper body and placed a clean white cloth over her mouth.
All the while, Estelle continued to cough in pain and coughed up blood.
When I saw the white cloth becoming stained with fresh blood, I threw away my earlier thoughts.
If Estelle was suffering so much, I wondered why I decided to postpone what I could do now.
As I reflected on this, her cough subsided and I approached Estelle, who was breathing heavily.
Then, when I took one of her hands, Estelle opened her eyes in shock.
"Fia... Lady Fia, please stay away from me. This disease is transmitted from person to person. Please..." (Estelle)
I smiled gently at Estelle, who spoke words of concern for me while she was struggling to breathe.
"It's okay. Look, my friends are Unicorn boy, who controls purification and detoxification, and Mythical Bird boy, who cures all diseases. As long as those two are together, I'm invincible." (Fia)
After saying that, I bent down and brought my face close enough to touch her forehead.
Then, I put a little pressure into my grip.
"Estelle, please narrow your eyes a little. You are a saint, so you can heal yourself." (Fia)
When Estelle heard my words, her eyes widened in surprise.
"Um, Lady Fia... I-I'm a saint, but I'm not that powerful..." (Estelle)
"Even if that's the case, you know your body best, so I'm sure you can do it." (Fia)
When I said this in a quiet voice, Estelle looked at me with an expression that seemed unsure of herself.
I nodded confidently at her, and I repeated the same thing once more.
"It's okay, you can do it. And now that Unicorn boy and Mythical bird boy are with us, we're invincible." (Fia)
Estelle let out a small laugh, perhaps finding it strange that I was praising the two people who were dressed in flashy costumes and who clearly looked like clowns.
"Well, if Mr. Unicorn and Mr. Mythical Bird have invincible power, then you should believe that I, a saint, also have power." (Fia)
When I said that, Estelle obediently narrowed her eyes.
Therefore, I lift her hands to my chest and squeeze them tightly.
"Hey, Estelle, even if you squint and your vision gets narrower, you still know where your body is and where your feet are, right? Just look around your body. Is there something different about it?" (Fia)
Estelle slowly turned her head around, but after a while she let out an apologetic voice.
"……I do not understand" (Estelle)
Well, even if it's your own body, it might be difficult the first time.
With that in mind, I added sparkles to the chest and back so that she could clearly see it.
Simply put, it was a light that looked like the effect that appeared when recovering, so it must be familiar to Estelle...As I was thinking about it, she gasped.
Then, she timidly let out a voice.
"Ah...m-maybe I can see it! It's my chest and stomach." (Estelle)
It's a shame.
"Hmm, your body is three-dimensional. I think that's your back, not your stomach." (Fia)
While I was answering this, a pair of clowns were talking in a particularly loud voice next to the wall.
"Um, I guess I'm feeling too sick and feeling hazy. I can also see that girl's body glowing black."
"What a coincidence. I can see it too. It's definitely her chest and back."
...It seemed like I made a mistake in the amount.
It's strange, I intended to make the light so that only Esther could feel it... but for the sake of my mental stability, I'll assume that those two have very good eyesight.
As I told myself that, I called out to Estelle.
"In that case, why don't you apply recovery magic to that part? You know, when you get injured, you apply magic to the injured part, right? When you're sick, you don't know which part is bad, you cast magic on the entire body. Therefore, it required many times more magical power than it originally needed." (Fia)
When Estelle heard my words, she opened her eyes wide and nodded in understanding.
"Well, if you ask me, that's true." (Fia)
Unlike Estelle, who obediently nodded, my faithful former escort knight was muttering to herself next to the wall.
"Of course that's true, but if you have an exceptionally large amount of hidden magical power, such operations should be unnecessary." (Curtis)
Hohoho, I wondered what Curtis was hinting at, so I ignored his words as a matter of course.
"So, if you first try to find out where the bad part is, and concentrate your magic on that part, you might be able to deal with it with less magic power." (Fia)
When I gave that advice, Estelle gave a small nod.
"I'll try" (Estelle)
Then, Estelle spread her hands toward her chest and slowly spoke the spell.
"Holy power that fills my body. Please heal my illness. Recovery." (Estelle)
With those words, magic was released from Estelle's hand...
"Mm?" (Fia)
I couldn't help but whisper a little.
Luckily, Estelle seemed to be working hard on activating recovery magic, so she didn't seem to hear my mutter, but...huh, what should I do about this?
The outlet that emitted Estelle's magic was extremely narrow, and surprisingly only a small amount of it came out.
Ah, maybe there are a certain number of saints whose magic power outlet is narrow.
That's why, when I went to the Starry Forest before, I was belatedly convinced that it took a lot of time for the saints to heal the knight, but... I changed my mind and thought I had to clear up the matter.
I placed my hands on top of hers and widened the outlet for the release of magical power.
"Huh? Whaaaat...!" (Estelle)
As soon as that happened, Estelle let out a loud voice.
"Well, Estelle can make a loud voice." (Fia)
I was impressed to hear her loud voice for the first time, but Estelle looked at me with teary eyes.
"What should I do!? Suddenly, a large amount of magical power began to leave my body, so I'm about to run out of it!" (Estelle)
"Huh?" (Fia)
The size I spread it out was within the range of common sense, and with this amount of release, it should be empty in such a short time...
"Yes. Well, it's true." (Fia)
Apparently Estelle's magical power was many times less than I expected.
Maybe she'd been sick for a long time, so that might be a factor.
"Maybe it's because Estelle was sick. Well then, as a friend of the miraculous Unicorn boy and Mythical Bird boy, I'll help you out." (Fia)
In order to prevent people from realizing that I was a real saint, I persistently emphasized that Unicorn and Mythical Birt were my acquaintances.
Then, I casually let go of my hand that was on Estelle and held it slightly away from her body.
"Recovery" (Fia)
Then, in response to my words, magic was released from my hands.
The result......
"Huh?" (Estelle)
Estelle's illness was cured in the blink of an eye, and her eyes widened in shock as she realized this.
