Please dont eat anything aside from what Ive provided to you for a while. I hope that you will have your meals as light as possible or rather, have something that is easy to digest.

Any other precautions that should be taken?

Ravens lips appeared to be so sweet as he was listening in silence. If there had been something that wasnt any good for her, he thought that she should know them as well.

You are rather weak, you should always be very careful. It has been quite windy lately, so dont forget to keep warm.

Ill do that.

The doctor finally left the room after listing out a number of many other precautions. Her arms were already full with those bottles of medicines that were from the drawer itself.

Did you hear that?

Molitias head immediately tilted in response as soon as the door was closed shut.

What?

Dont think about going out even for a while from now onwards.

Im not thinking of going anywhere. Plus, where am I even going with this look of mine?

It cant be better that soon. At least, until the icy breeze fades away.

Only for some timethat was the plan, but he could no longer put it off now. The weather would only get colder from now onwards. It was crystal clear that his vulnerable wife could never survive through this harsh cold torrent.

I wont be going out for a while eitheruntil you get much better. Ill only be alright once you can withstand the cold wind.

Molitias jaw immediately fell into a drop at Ravens outlandish remark.

What about work, then?

I can just use up my vacation.

You were still busy up to yesterday.

Its okay. Ive never even taken a vacation before, so I can just take this opportunity to fix that habit.

Raven gently swept her hair away. In comparison to her already lost complexion, she had also taken on quite a considerable fever.

As he thought about how she should be taking the medicine quickly, he straight away ordered a maid to prepare for a meal. The confused eyes were circling around before they slowly closed themselves.

Are you really sure that you can take some time off?

Of course.

If you happen to be busy, but youre doing this purposely because of me, then you dont really have to

Even while saying so, her words could be heard to hold a very subtle sign of joy. If she were to get sick, she would definitely get weaker as well. It would therefore provide a rather quiet mental stability for her to have someone to trust and rely upon.

Its alright.

Raven slowly let her off the bed before he kissed her on the forehead.

But that was just another point of Ravens own interest. After a few days of having sent the one-sided notice, Terrance urgently came to visit as a spy.

Molitia, who had already regained her consciousness, was recovering rather quickly. She could already leave her bed after a long time and was now reading a book in her study.

By then, Raven was always by her side, so Terrance had naturally gone into her study as well. Terrance immediately bowed down as soon as the door was opened.

My Lord! Please return back. The office is now in a state of chaos.

Look at where you are raising your voice right now, Terrance.

Sorrymy apologies.

He finally realized the moment that he had become too excited by that violent tone of voice. Terrance instantly cleared his throat as he lowered his voice.

Every ministry has now come to find youthe Duke. And of course, the man who was supposed to be in charge of the main work had already vanished into thin air.

Originally in politics, shouldnt it have never stopped just because a person has suddenly gone missing?

Yes. That is very true.

Terrance responded swiftly. However, his unhidden resentment had made his voice raise surprisingly high.

Nevertheless, dont you also know that this task is proven to be difficult without the permission of the very person in charge?

That is the reason why I delegated it to you, Terrance.

My Lord

Terrance really wanted to hit his forehead with his own palm. His well-known organized appearance was now all over the place. That figure of his was fraught with many circumstances.

Theres still a limit to what I can actually do as a substitute. Whenever the head of another group of knights arrives, I feel very uncomfortable.

It is quite big of a deal for people who dont usually come for a visit.

That is how much of a progress that we have actually made.
