Half an hour later.
[Congratulations to the host, the treatment was successful. No magic was used in this treatment. The props used were: Nine Heavenly Tribulation Needles. Since the host’s race is the Demon King species, the rewards obtained from the treatment will also be automatically converted]
[This treatment evaluation: S]
[A total of 500 demon points were obtained, and the current total demon points is 3,000 points. 】
The demon girl's blushing scream finally stopped. The elf girl put her ear to the door. Just when she was about to listen carefully, the door was suddenly opened.
"Ugh!"
The elf girl who had no time to dodge lost her balance and bumped into He Wen's arms.
"?"
He Wen looked at the elf girl with a puzzled expression.
"Isn't it...I'm sorry, I, I didn't, I..."
Seeing the girl's panic look, He Wen just raised his hand and touched her head.
"Your name is Shireen, right?"
The elf girl named Shireen nodded tremblingly.
"Thank you for standing up for me before at the gallows."
He Wen showed her a gentle smile, but immediately, his expression became serious.
"But in the future, I hope you won't do this kind of thing again. No life should be sacrificed for others."
He put his hand on Shireen's shoulder, and Shireen could feel that the human in front of her seemed to be talking to her, but it seemed that these words were meant for others.
"Whether it's you...or Lake or the others, this shouldn't be the case..."
He Wen's hands were trembling. He thought of those knights dying one after another in front of his eyes. They seemed to have no regard for their own lives at all, as doctors.
He Wen did not agree with this kind of self-sacrifice.
But as a survivor who was protected by those knights, he sincerely expressed his gratitude and respect to those knights.
"...I...I don't want you to die..."
Surprisingly, this time Shilin did not immediately apologize because of He Wen's accusation. She clasped her hands on her chest, looked up at this human who was much taller than herself, and spoke in very poor human language.
"I, I want, you, you survive, so, so..."
"I want you to live too, Shireen."
He Wen smiled helplessly.
"You are not a slave, and you are not someone who should be sacrificed. You are my important partner."
"Partner...mate?"
Shireen was slightly confused.
"Maybe you can't understand it now. Maybe the elves call their partners differently, but I believe you will understand what I mean in the future. You can come in now."
Shirin followed He Wen into the house.
Then he saw Shalliya lying on the table, shaking constantly, with drool still on the corner of her mouth, and a look of being spoiled on her face.
Her eyes were distracted, her breathing was rapid, and her face was flushed. It seemed that she might not be able to reply in a short time.
He Wen had already made another quilt to cover her back. Seeing Shilin's surprised expression, He Wen scratched his head in embarrassment.
"This stimulation is a bit too much, but fortunately her condition has stabilized. The price is that I have to restrain more of her power now."
After a period of time, He Wen began to take care of Eve, carefully disinfecting her wounds, and then put on the super-efficient recovery bandage and universal blood pack from the future world.
"Help me, Shireen."
"Okay, okay."
Then with Shirin's help, He Wen began to transfuse Eve's blood. He worked until the sky was getting dark, and Eve finally woke up.
When she opened her eyes, she saw an unfamiliar ceiling. She was a little panicked at first, but after seeing He Wen beside her bed, the girl immediately calmed down.
"Dr. He Wen, may I ask where we are now..."
He Wen gave way and pointed to the little witch who was still sleeping on the table next to him.
"At her home, resting now because she spent too much magic on helping us escape."
Eve looked at Shalia. Shireen had dressed her up just now and wiped away the drool from her mouth.
But her expression was still hard to describe, and although she was dreaming, she seemed to be continuing to experience the treatment just now.
"No... don't, human, please, be gentle, I can't take it... wait... ugh."
Listening to Shalia's murmurings, Eve's eyes suddenly became strange when she looked at He Wen.
"You, please listen to my explanation. It's a treatment, a treatment method. I didn't do anything strange. Shireen can prove it."
He Wen quickly grabbed the elf girl.
Shireen looked at Eve timidly, and Eve also looked at her.
"Tell me, how was it treated?"
Eve asked.
"I...I was outside the door. There was a lot of movement inside. She screamed very loudly, begging for mercy, and then..."
He Wen quickly covered Shilin's mouth.
"You'd better stop talking! It's getting darker and darker! I couldn't wash it away even if I jumped into the Yellow River!"
"Um......"
Eve stared at He Wen and slowly narrowed her eyes.
"Hum hum......"
"Really, listen to my explanation, Princess Eve, I..."
Phew——
Just when He Wen was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, Eve suddenly let out a chuckle, and because of this chuckle, there was a sudden pain in her chest.
"I...I was kidding you."
Enduring the pain in her chest, Eve forced a smile towards He Wen.
"I know that Dr. He Wen is not that kind of person. Although your treatment methods are all strange, there is no doubt that your treatments are very effective and can even be said to be miraculous."
He Wen breathed a sigh of relief, and then gently supported Eve to lie back on the bed.
"It has nothing to do with God. This is modern medicine. No, there is also future medicine. Well, strictly speaking, there is also theology. In short, it is very complicated."
"...Dr. Hewen."
After lying on the bed, Eve looked into He Wen's eyes and asked.
"What's wrong?"
"Where's Lake?"
...
Still can't escape this problem.
Although He Wen wanted to avoid talking about this topic, Eve's eyes were extremely determined. Even if she had guessed something, she still had to hear He Wen say this fact personally.
"......Yeah."
After listening to He Wen's account of what happened after she was seriously injured and fell into coma, Eve slowly closed her eyes.
"Brother Emperor...why do you want to kill them all like this?"
He Wen didn't know what to say, so he could only stand aside silently.
Shirin huddled behind He Wen and looked at Eve secretly.
"Doctor...I can..."
Before Eve could finish speaking, He Wen understood what she meant. She stood up and patted Shirin's head gently.
"Shireen, you and I go out to collect ingredients. It's time to prepare dinner."
"Okay, okay!"
Shirin immediately followed He Wen to the door.
"Thanks......"
Eve still had her eyes closed, but her voice was already trembling.
He Wen opened the door, sighed, and then left the house with Shilin.
The moment the door closed, He Wen heard sobbing coming from inside the room, and then the low sobbing gradually turned into loud crying.
It was an emotion that was desperately wanted to be suppressed, but became stronger because of the suppression.
It was the desperate feeling of a girl who had been suppressing it since she was born and finally collapsed.
"...She, she was crying, feeling unwell?"
Shirin looked at He Wen with some confusion.
"Save, save her...?"
He Wen just sighed and looked up at the stars in the sky.
"Not all diseases can be cured by doctors..."
