Chapter 219
Chapter 219. Spread of plague (4) Even if you say it's okay, this magic is quite difficult.
It also consumes quite a bit of mental power to cover a village.
‘This is the biggest downside...
Even if it was programmed as simply as possible, the difficulty of the technique itself could not be lowered any further.
The only ones I can write are Dia and I.
...Of course, if you look for it, there aren't any wizards over 7th class.
I can't teach you this carelessly.
The risk of an accident is great.
In the end, Dia has no choice but to work hard.
Fortunately, she showed enthusiasm and managed to learn it somehow.
“...Let's take a look first.”
I took out another test paper and tried it.
The color does not change.
This means that the virus has been properly disposed of.
I need to do some more observations, but this should be enough.
Now let's tell them that this town is safe.
Yeongju looked as if his common sense had been shaken.
Not only that, but the others have enough bewildered faces.
In the first place, the concept of a virus is unfamiliar to them. It was natural to not believe that the culprit had been removed.
“Did all the plagues really disappear?”
“At least there won't be another epidemic like now... but we shouldn't be vigilant.”
But at least you won't have to burn the whole village down or commit atrocities.
“Whew... I'm really glad. Thank you, Arell.”
Youngju pretended to sweep his chest as if he was sincerely relieved, and bowed his head at me.
There's no way I want to incinerate him with peace of mind.
How heartbreaking is that as a human before the lord.
He thanked me over and over again.
Countermeasures against latent viruses have proven that this can be solved.
Then the rest of the thing to do is.....
“.....Dia needs to work a little harder, is that okay?”
As Dia wanders around the kingdom, there is no other way but to use her strength to eradicate the plague.
When I asked for my understanding, Dia accepted it with a natural nod.
“It is to solve this situation. I never think of it as difficult or distasteful.”
“If that’s the case, thank
you.
First of all, after getting achievements to solve the latent virus problem.
With some time left, we decided to take a look at the temporary clinic where patients were gathered in the manor.
“There will be no shortage of medicine, right?”
“Thanks to Arel-nim, there is never a shortage.”
Listening to the explanation of the lord crouching next to me, I glanced over the clinic.
There, magicians dispatched from the kingdom were reaching out to the sick with a helping hand, providing medicine and treatment.
Fortunately, the lord's words that there was no shortage seemed to be true.
It was not only the support sent by the kingdom, but the lord here showed signs of supporting the patients at his own expense.
“Then there will be no problem.”
It seems like we have to hurry, so let's go back to Fahilia for now.
There is also a need to talk to the royal castle about today's achievements.
It was then.
“Boo please save my son! please!”
....It's not a quiet clinic, but for some reason I heard a voice that sounded more sorrowful than the others.
“What is going on?”
Calling out those who wanted to find out, I headed there myself.
There, a man who appeared to be a farmer was holding the wizards by the hem of their clothes and screaming on his stomach.

“Please… save my son!”
....Hmm, I think I understand what's going on.
First of all, I asked the wizards and doctors what was going on to confirm.
“What happened?”
“...Actually, that child's condition is serious...it's a very difficult situation to use your hands on.”
Apparently, the boy lying over there was the patient in question.
....As expected, the situation has deteriorated excessively and it is difficult to use your hands.
Because my medicine isn't all-powerful.
It cannot be used for patients who are too late.
I can't.
“Dia, if it’s okay, work hard one more time.”
“All right.”
She recited the incantation without a hint of dislike.
Blue particles flowed from the wand and wrapped around the child's body.
Originally, it is a technique used for treatment.
You could also write it like this
After all, the purpose is to remove the virus.
Then, if it is limited to the current epidemic, it can be applied to treatment as well.
Although the available talent is limited, it cannot be openly used for universal treatment.
But even in this situation, turning away is something that shouldn't happen as a human being.
At least I'm not stingy enough not to use it for a patient dying right in front of my eyes.
Thanks to the grace of the mana particles, the child's expression became surprisingly calm.
However, since the lost energy was not replenished, I only asked the doctors and magicians to be careful.
“Thank you, Prince! Wizard! Thank you very much!”
I nodded moderately at the words of gratitude of the child's parents, who bowed down in a voice mixed with tears.
Those who recognized me at that voice stood up one after another and shouted words of thanks, so we hurriedly left before the uproar escalated.
The whole time Dia was holding on to her staff.
UW
??????
I'm just pretending not to notice her condition.
yes dia Be patient. Not long now.
A plague that struck the entire kingdom of Ernesia.
It did not take long for the epidemic, which almost terrified the public with its high fatality rate accompanied by high fever, to subside.
It was thanks to Arell's generous sending of medicines and wizards hired by the Mage Tower at the right time.
If only medicine was prescribed, it would have been difficult to rescue children or the elderly without physical strength.
However, thanks to the generous support of expensive labor costs and magic stones, the treatment of patients was able to proceed without major problems.
In addition, they noticed signs in the early stages, promptly closed the gates of each territory, closed the border just in case, and strengthened the borders, albeit temporarily.
The former is to prevent the spread of the disease, and the latter is to prepare for the danger that will come from outside.
Unsurprisingly, from where he had heard the information, at least a portion of the army with the country's emblems erased from each of the three directions of the kingdom was advancing towards the kingdom of Ernesia.
They were self-proclaimed thieves.
They must have been the scapegoats sent to confirm the news that Ernesia Kingdom was weakened due to illness.
In other words, it was a reconnaissance effected by someone's influence to check the state of Ernesia Kingdom.
It was the three great sword masters who were preparing just in time to defeat each of those armies.
Let's defer mentioning the performance of the three to a later opportunity.
Even with military power, it shows off its majesty that it is still strong, and it is treating the disease that is circulating inside as soon as possible.
At first, the people who were frightened by the fact that the disease was circulating were greatly relieved to see the large amount of medicines loaded on the wagon and the magicians who generously gave them healing magic, and praised the kingdom for taking these measures.
Another reason for praising the kingdom was that it did not respond by burning villages and cities even though there was an epidemic.
In addition, the fact that Arel gave this kind of support at the cost of his personal assets later became known as a conversation among nobles, and once again the voices of praise for Allel rose.
But not everyone could laugh.
There were people who were taken aback by Ernesia Kingdom's prompt response.
They put their heads together and wondered.
‘uh? Isn't this?'
There were people who muttered that after receiving a report on the situation in Ernesia Kingdom.
The highest ranking priests of the Zelnian Holy Kingdom.
“Big… how the heck did this happen?”
They sighed one after another as they read the report sent by the spy who had infiltrated Ernesia Kingdom.
Ernesia Kingdom's excessively quick response was unbelievable.
“We definitely thought that God would listen to our will... but
they licked their lips as if they were sorry.
“Nelvania-sama’s revelation must have been right, but…
”…I never thought they would shake it off on their own.”
“This will ruin the plan.”
They already knew that an epidemic would break out in Ernesia Kingdom.
This is because the saintess once received a revelation and relayed the truth.
‘A great plague will come to the kingdom of Ernesia. The body will burn like a fire, the blood will dry up, and many will suffer.'
In fact, it was certain that the plague had begun to circulate as revealed.
But how did this happen?
Didn't the kingdom of Ernesia deal with the disease too quickly?
Thanks to this, the priests were embarrassed inside.
“I am appalled at having to make official contact with them directly.”
A middle-aged priest sighed heavily.
The Holy Kingdom had already completed preparations to ‘support' the Kingdom of Ernesia.
Their intention was to clear a large debt to Ernesia Kingdom first.
I had already prepared and contacted Ernesia saying that they could help at any time, but
....Already at that time, Ernesia's liaison officer had returned only the reply, ‘I will only be grateful for your will.'
Then I had to grit my teeth thinking that it was already too late.
“It's embarrassing not only the support plan, but also this one.”
The other priests are also in trouble and are breaking out in a cold sweat.
“I don’t know what to say to the paladins on our side.”
When the Kingdom of Ernesia refused to support the Holy Kingdom.
At that time, the army that had been prepared for the cause was also lost where it should go.
In fact, support was an excuse.
Anyway, I was going to put a condition that Ernesia Kingdom would not easily accept, and the moment I refused it, I was going to enter the temple right away using a pre-prepared justification.
If the Kingdom of Ernesia is reeling from disease, it should be able to take control of it with the national power of the Holy Kingdom.
They saw this as a divine opportunity.
Ironically, however, the kingdom of Ernesia overcame the opportunity bestowed by God on its own.
“I don’t know what kind of witchcraft he used.
“I’d rather use that as an excuse….
The priests are still expressing their desire for invasion, unable to hide their regrets.
“no. I guess it's time to keep quiet and watch.”
Saint Nelvania, who had not said a word until now, finally opened her mouth.
But the words that came out of her lips were far from what the priests hoped for.
“Nelvania, what do you mean by that? In the first place, this opportunity will be as revealed. Then wouldn’t it be right to advance now?”
“But they are also the ones who have overcome the disease. And I was only predicted that an epidemic would circulate. So, there is no point in trying to enter like this.”
Maybe it's still worth fighting for.
Nelvenia did not want to wage war on them in such an uncertain situation.
“Above all, we do not want their destruction. I just wanted to let them know about the majesty of our god. If they overcome, that would be the will of God.”
“....All right.”
The priests meekly gave up.
However, dissatisfaction toward Nelvania for making this decision leaked out from his eyes, albeit weakly.
She noticed it, but for now pretended not to see it and closed her eyes.
“First, let’s watch.”
