Chapter 44: Hilde’s Walk
■■■■■■■■■■
Sebas informed me that Grandfather had finished taking all the Stomach Purge tablets, and I confirmed through information conversion that his stomach cancer was indeed cured! That’s a relief.
Grandmother was also recovering steadily and could now eat solid foods as well as liquids.
“Sebas!”
“Yes, Lord Toma?”
“Could you make this for me?” I handed Sebas a piece of paper.
“What’s this? It’s quite thin paper...”
No, I didn’t mean for him to make paper. I wanted him to make what’s drawn on the paper.
“Ah, I see... Leave it to me. I’ll have it made right away.”
“Thank you.”
Soon, I’d have to return to Ashud Territory. But before that, I needed to make a request to Grandfather. With everything that had happened, I hadn’t had the chance to bring it up.
“Grandfather, it’s Toma. May I come in?”
“Of course!”
As I entered his room, Grandfather moved from his desk, where he’d been working on some documents, to a nearby sofa.
“I came to ask a favor of you, Grandfather.”
“Ask anything. I’ll make sure it’s done!”
His enthusiastic response made me hesitate slightly before making my request.
“Because of the blessing of Lord Deuro, Grandmother has been able to rise from her bed, and my illness is also cured! Let’s build a temple dedicated solely to Lord Deuro!”
What I’d asked was simply for statues of Lord Deuro to be placed around Axel Territory, but Grandfather went all in and suggested constructing an entire temple.
“If you sit in this, Grandmother, you’ll be able to go outside!”
“Oh my... how wonderful. Diana, could you help me?”
“Yes, Madam.”
Diana, Grandmother’s maid, and Mother carefully helped Grandmother from her bed into the wheelchair.
“Oh, this is quite comfortable.”
I used slime gel for the cushions, so it has a nice, soft resilience.
Diana pushed the wheelchair, Mother held Siegvalt in her arms, and I walked beside Grandmother. Just walking with everyone made my heart feel warm for some reason.
Sebas and the other servants quickly set up a parasol and table for us outside.
“This tea tastes even better than usual. Thank you, Toma.”
Grandmother gazed at the sky, looking deeply moved by her first time outdoors in a long while.
“Hilde!”
“Mother!”
As we were enjoying tea, Grandfather, Lord Alexander, and Father arrived.
“Is it alright for you to be outside?”
“I’m feeling wonderful today.”
Day by day, Grandmother’s condition was improving. Her health was fully restored, and with rehabilitation, she’d be able to walk again. When I explained this, Grandfather started to cry.
“I’m so glad... truly glad, Hilde.”
“Yes. I’ll do my best with this rehabilitation you mentioned.”
“Of course, Hilde. You’ll be able to walk again!”
I explained the rehabilitation techniques to Sebas. It was about time for me to return to Ashud Territory, or things might get a bit complicated.
