"I'll call someone first. When His Majesty Rain wakes up, you should call the doctor right away... ."
"Wait, wait."
Julia hurriedly caught Melissa who was about to leave.
Then, after thinking for a while, he opened his mouth in confusion.
"balm… Where are you?"
"yes? Ah, this is the Grand Duke's villa in the southern part of the Grand Duke."
As soon as she heard the answer, Yulia's complexion became pale, and while holding Melissa's sleeve tightly, she let out a trembling voice.
"why? why me… Hopefully, Your Majesty... ."
Yulia, who was stuttering, covered her lips with her hand.
Could it be that Fernando was looking for me and brought me here?
'Nonsense. how… .'
Julia lowered her trembling hands and glanced around.
Really, I can't remember anything.
How did you come across Fernan and how you got to this place?
It was just too sudden for her.
As Yulia began to tremble uncontrollably, surprised Melissa grabbed her hand.
"Sir, are you okay? I need to call the doctor first... ."
After hearing Melissa's flustered words, Yulia looked down at her body.
Her outfit wasn't the dress she was wearing in her last memory. And for some reason, her palms were bandaged.
Julia, who held my arm with a stutter, opened her mouth again.
"Melissa, I… Why are you here?"
"… … ."
"I really, can't remember anything… ."
To the desperate question, Melissa could not easily come up with an answer.
It was because Melissa did not know the details of the situation either.
Melissa was just doing chores in the castle, as always.
Then a knight came and took her somewhere along with the words of His Majesty's command.
Bewildered, I followed the knight and arrived at this villa.
And here, unbelievably, Julia was there. In the meantime, she, whom she had missed so much, was lying wandering in her deathbed.
"I only heard orders from the Grand Duke to take care of the Rain. I wonder how His Majesty Rain came to this place, and I... ."
"… … ."
"Your Majesty, your complexion is too pale. Once again, lie down and see your doctor for treatment... ."
Before Melissa could even finish her words, Julia hurriedly got up.
At this moment, the only thought in her mind was to get out of this place immediately.
"Uh-huh, His Majesty, where are you going!"
Julia stepped on the floor with Melissa behind her, who was trying to dry me.
In her thin chemise, Yulia stumbled across the room.
Perhaps not even conscious of being barefoot, there was no hesitation in her steps through the hallway.
"Rain, His Majesty Rain, wait a minute… ."
When Melissa, who had followed her helplessly, tried to catch her by force, someone appeared from the other side of the hallway.
It was Fernando who came back after talking with the doctor for a while.
"… Julia?"
At the gentle voice calling me, one day, Julia raised her head.
And I found Fernan standing a little further away.
Fernando strode closer to her with a rare startled face.
Julia slowly backed away as if she couldn't believe the person she could see.
"how… ."
While Julia was muttering in the distance, Fernan, who came close to her nose, looked carefully at her complexion.
"When did you wake up? Is your body okay?"
"… … ."
"wait. I'll call the doctor... ."
He said so and grabbed her trembling hand. Yulia, who had flinched, reflexively pushed him away.
Fernan, who looked at the rough hand for a moment, turned to look at Julia again.
It was only after seeing that look that seemed so terrified, he realized that Julia's condition was not serious.
"Come now, why… ."
Yulia kept muttering with a broken voice. Her legs were shaking and she couldn't even stand properly.
My stomach was pounding and my head felt like it was going to explode. Her nerve cords were breaking one by one.
"Julia, calm down."
Fernan looked at her with a calm face. But Julia stepped back again when those words sounded like they were trying to lock me in.
Up until now, Julia has been thinking that she has completely escaped from the past.
I never thought I would see Fernan again for any reason.
"I do not like it. Go, I'll go... ."
Unable to control her chapped lips, Julia passed him with a precarious step.
But, not long after, he was caught in a strong hand and had to turn around.
"Where are you going?"
"… … ."
"Are you planning to go to that ruined monastery?"
Fernan, who held her wrist lightly, asked calmly, and Yulia looked up at him with an exasperated face for an instant.
"no way… Did you do any harm to the monastery?"
"… … ."
"Hey, let this go! me, i... ."
Julia twisted her shaky hands, but the big ones didn't even budge.
And at this moment, Fernando was feeling that there was something oddly wrong with her words.
"Yulia."
Looking at Julia, who could hardly regain her reason, Fernan continued to speak with a clear voice.
"Can't you remember what happened?"
"… … ."
At his question, Yulia stopped her struggles and raised her gaze.
After reading the answer from her silent, Fernando gradually released the strength from the hand holding her.
After a while, Fernando looked at her with a slightly more subtle expression and lightly touched her forehead.
"Bring the doctor right away."
"Yes Yes!"
Melissa, who had stood at a distance and was fidgety, responded quickly and disappeared.
Julia looked up at him with a gaze that did not slow down her vigilance, and took her steps again.
Fernan, who had left her staggering for a while, sighed heavily and caught up with her at once.
Then, with one arm, he gently lifted his slender waist and hugged him.
"… Get it down!"
Ignoring Julia, who was hanging around like a bale, Fernando hurriedly turned to the bedroom.
bang! Unlike the tightly closed door, the hand that put Julia down on the bed was careful.
Julia didn't even have the strength to make a sound, so she just stared at him with spirits.
eyes filled with tears. The hem of his clothes was pushed up from the struggle. Below that, the ankle with only bone joints left.
Fernan, who was staring at each other one after another, slowly bent one knee and brought it to eye level with her.
"Yulia, how far do you remember?"
He calmly waited for Julia, who could not answer right away.
After a while, Yulia opened her mouth with a slightly calmed face.
"… I was riding a wagon."
"… … ."
"So, to go to the manor house… ."
I tried to revive the memory by repeating the words sporadically, but I still couldn't think of anything after that.
Did he even fall asleep in the carriage? But I couldn't even remember falling asleep.
Julia impatiently grabbed the blanket and couldn't speak any more.
"okay… Is that so?"
Fernan, who understood the situation to some extent, lowered his gaze and narrowed his brow.
Perhaps Yulia only remembered the situation before she encountered the monster.
Fernan had to contemplate for a long time with her mouth shut.
Even if he told the truth, he was not sure if Julia would be able to handle it.
Perhaps Yulia did not know that she had lost her memory for a while because of the fear she experienced for the first time in her life.
"Your Majesty, this is Rockman."
Meanwhile, someone's voice was heard.
Doctor Rockman, who hurriedly opened the door and came in, was surprised to see Yulia awake.
"Your Majesty, you are conscious! I am very happy."
Rockman was also very familiar to Julia. He's been in a great siege, and he's been treated by Rockman a few times.
But now, Julia couldn't afford to face Rockman. Her head sounded like it was going to explode.
"iced coffee… ."
I tried to recall the memory somehow, but the more I did it, the more I was breathing.
Even though he had no memory, it was because his body had not forgotten the horror of that time.
Julia looked down at my hand that didn't stop shaking.
I should know what happened, but I had a strange feeling that I shouldn't know.
For a moment, it seemed as if a loud roar was heard from somewhere.
Julia closed her eyes tightly and covered her ears. She crouched down on her body and started sobbing involuntarily.
"Uh-huh… ."
As she was closing her eyes for a long time, someone gently wrapped her arms around her shoulder. Julia, who felt her touch, lifted her eyelids just then.
His face, wet with tears, turned to Fernan.
"Yulia, why… ."
Seeing her tears, Fernando had an expression that seemed to be somewhat bewildered or at a loss for what to do.
He reached out and gently stroked Julia's wet eyes.
With such a bewildered face, he wiped away her tears, then pulled her into his arms with his firm arms.
"… … ."
Yulia felt a hand sweeping her back with a blank expression on her face.
The sudden warmth of the great warmth in my head, which had been engulfed in fear, gradually turned white.
It was strange. I had to push this man away, but somehow, it seemed that the tension was being relieved by a clumsy hand.
Julia slowly lowered her hand, whose trembling had subsided little by little.
I slowly closed my eyes a few times, then slowly lowered my eyelids.
The strength of her body, which had been hardened, was gradually released.
