Black Killer Whale Baby [EN]: Chapter 166

“It’s okay, Ekion.”

I reassured Ekion, who seemed surprised.

He probably hadn’t been able to express these feelings to anyone before I arrived, as if he was waiting just for me.

I could tell without looking.

“Tus is just… in too much pain, so he fell asleep for a bit.”

“In pain?”

“Yeah. You’ve slept for a long time too, right?”

“……”

I stroked Ekion’s head as he nodded slightly.

“People’s bodies try to recover by sleeping when they’re too tired.”

This could also be called fainting or passing out, but since those terms don’t sound good, I subtly changed it.

“And don’t worry. There’s a way to heal him.”

Ekion’s expression brightened slightly. It was as if light began to shine from the moment he saw me.

“Tus has to live.”

“Of course, he has to live on. Tus needs to be happier, as much as he’s suffered.”

“……”

“Just like you, Ekion.”

I comforted Ekion once more and turned my head.

Before looking at Whale and Lily, who have healing abilities, I stared at Lebaie first. I felt a sense of urgency.

“Lebaie, about Tus, did you examine him separately?”

Lebaie was momentarily taken aback, then answered.

“……I’m not a doctor, so it’s difficult to give a diagnosis, but I can observe.”

“Anything is fine, just answer.”

“He needs immediate treatment.”

That was obvious. Lebaie probably didn’t just want to say that.

“First, it seems like several bones are broken, so I’ve applied splints. However, fractures and internal bleeding are very dangerous for a child, so I gave him some medicine made from the materials I had on hand as a temporary measure.”

“What about Whale’s treatment?”

“That’s… I’ve made a diagnosis, but I’m missing one ingredient.”

“Can you get it?”

“I already have it.”

“You have it?”

I tilted my head.

“The ingredient to treat Sir Pierre, I mean.”

Ah, I unknowingly turned my head. Dad was standing next to me.

“I’m perfectly fine. If you’re worried about me, you can use it, of course.”

“……Okay.”

I nodded and stared at Lebaie again.

Lebaie also nodded.

Whale, quick to catch on, carefully put Lily down from his lap, where she had been sleeping, and approached.

Lebaie was preparing the ingredients. While preparing, he suddenly seemed to remember something and briefly looked up at me.

“Ah, come to think of it, Lady. There was something strange… something to report.”

“What is it?”

Lebaie moved his hands busily as he spoke.

“Lily saw that being, Tus, and was so surprised that she cried, saying she would heal him.”

“……”

Of course, the content wasn’t light enough to just pass over.

“……Did she end up healing him?”

“Yes. It was an urgent situation, so there was no refusing.”

“So you saw her healing him?”

“Yes, that’s right. What on earth is going on?”

I scratched my cheek and blurted out.

“What else could it be? Her special skill is ‘healing ability’.”

I looked at Lily, who was fast asleep.

“Maybe it’s an ability that’s easier to use than Whale’s healing ability.”

“Is that so? It didn’t seem quite like that.”

I smiled bitterly.

“Right. It’s not an ability without a price.”

The healing ability that the female lead had in the book. It was truly amazing, but at the same time, it was a double-edged sword for her.

“You must have seen her in pain while healing.”

“Yes.”

That baby squirrel was in pain.

Geez, how many sick people were in this room? A small sigh escaped.

“If Whale’s ability is equivalent exchange, then the price for Lily’s ability is that she feels similar pain herself, or some of the wounds are transferred to her body.”

Because of this, the black panthers and the male lead had no choice but to cherish and protect the female lead even more.

A frail being who gets hurt and wounded while healing them.

Doesn’t it seem like she was born to be protected?

I stared at Lily for a moment, then looked away.

“She fell asleep while healing.”

“Yes. Thanks to her, the external wounds and severe internal bleeding have healed.”

“……It must have hurt a lot.”

Fortunately, Lily hadn’t been using her healing ability for long, and Lebaie quickly pulled her away when she seemed to be in pain.

It would have been a pain too hard for a three-year-old to endure.

“Seriously, this world doesn’t let kids grow up like kids.”

“I partially agree.”

Lebaie said this and then looked up again.

“All preparations are complete.”

“Okay.”

Whale approached Tus, who was lying neatly as if he knew it was his turn.

Tus’s breathing was still irregular, as if he was still in pain.

Ekion, who had moved next to me for the treatment, flinched.

I gently grabbed Ekion’s hand and squeezed it.

“It’s okay, they’re trying to heal him.”

“……”

Ekion’s hand hesitated, then grabbed back.

In the meantime, light flowed out from Whale.

‘Atlan and Drex are guarding the front door, so there won’t be any problems.’

Besides, Dad was here now too.

No troublemakers would be able to enter.

I stared intently at the treatment process before my eyes.

The materials needed for Tus’s treatment gradually disappeared.

‘I’ve seen the diagnosis a few times, but this is the first time I’ve seen the treatment since I healed Lebaie’s small wound.’

Soon, the silver light flowing from Whale’s body filled the entire room.

Reflexively, I tightly closed my eyes, but strangely, when I opened them again, there were shadows of the sea everywhere.

“It’s the sea.”

Like Dad’s short remark, it felt like looking up at the sky from the sea.

The wave shadows were beautiful.

“This phenomenon sometimes occurs when the injury is severe.”

Lebaie explained calmly, as if it wasn’t the first time he had seen this scenery, so I quickly understood.

It was truly a mysterious power.

“Healing is really nice……”

I felt relieved as I watched Tus’s expression gradually become more comfortable, but at the same time, I felt a little bitter.

How nice would it have been if we had someone like Whale in the previous timelines?

‘Then we could have saved at least some of those who were dying in agony.’

As I silently hardened my expression at the faces of some of the dead subordinates that flashed by, Ekion gently tugged at my hand.

“Calypso?”

“Huh?”

“Is that, useful?”

“Huh? Ah, the power of healing? Yes, it is.”

I stared at Ekion and continued. Because I felt like I knew why Ekion brought this up.

“But Ekion. You don’t have to ask me if I need you every time.”

“……Why?”

“Because I’m going to keep you by my side even if I don’t need you. If you’re asking because you’re anxious, you don’t have to ask.”

“……”

“Oh, Tus’s expression has become more comfortable. Right?”

I shook Ekion’s hand.

All the light disappears. Whale, dripping with cold sweat, said with a pale face.

“It’s over.”

Whale staggered as if he was about to collapse.

Lebaie quickly supported Whale as if he was used to it.

I thanked Whale and quickly approached Tus.

‘Tus.’

As soon as I approached, a faint wrinkle appeared on Tus’s face, and then Tus slowly opened his eyes.

The golden eyes that sparkled looked at me. It was a moment, but I was nervous.

Soon, a smile like a spring flower bloomed on his pale face.

“……Calypso!”

“Tus.”

Tus tried to get up abruptly, but groaned.

The moment I tried to grab Tus in surprise, there was a ‘pop’ sound at the same time.

“Your Grace!”

A blue baby snake jumped towards Ekion.

“Ugh, Ekion, your hand! Extend your hand!”

As soon as Ekion extended his hand, Tus wrapped around it.

Bean-sized tears poured from the baby snake’s golden eyes.

“Your Grace! Dragon Duke! Tus missed you! Your Grace……!”

“……”

“Tus worked really hard! No one knows, Tus lived like Dragon Duke!”

We couldn’t say anything to the baby snake’s words as he shed tears.

Because we knew that he had been devoted to his master even while suffering the pain of broken bones.

Ekion’s eyes turned to me. Eyes filled with subtle emotions.

I realized that it was an expression of not knowing what to do and smiled slightly.

I whispered with my mouth.

‘Tell Tus.’

There’s only one thing Tus wants to hear.

‘You did well.’

Ekion slowly opened his mouth.

While gently stroking Tus’s head with his remaining hand.

“You did well.”

Then, he hesitated and added one more word.

“……Now, don’t be in pain.”

* * *

The Dragon Castle was turned upside down.

Because the Dragon Duke had disappeared somewhere.

It couldn’t be hidden because most of the territory residents in Peseum had seen and heard everything about the incident as spectators.

On the evening of the day he wreaked havoc in Peseum, the mainland beastkin side announced that they had found the ‘Dragon Duke’ in an attempt to clean up the incident.

However, they couldn’t answer the angry retainers and territory residents who demanded to see him immediately, so it turned out to be a lie.

The black panthers glossed over it, saying that another beast had hastily announced it and wrapped things up.

‘What other beast, they were trying to quietly cover it up as usual, but they got caught.’

Try as you might, can you easily cover up this incident?

I looked at Ekion and Tus sitting next to me with a pleased expression.

After the touching reunion between master and servant, Tus didn’t leave Ekion’s side.

Sometimes he would mimic Ekion and teach him this and that. It was just amazing.

‘It’s already been two days.’

I had been constantly focusing on the situation as it unfolded.

I thought it was time and gathered everyone.

“Should we go back now?”
