I told Casion that this wasn’t a worry but a mere daily question that anyone would ask.
Last time, he gave me a short answer, but today Casion pretended not to hear me.
“Are you going to sleep?”
I approached the bed.
His eyelids were tightly closed. I swung my hand in front of his eyes to check.
There was no movement in his long eyelashes. He withered like a kitten that I had never had before; it looked like he needed to increase his appetite.
“I need to find the cure quickly.”
Finding Rupert was faster than I thought.
Before I died, Journee’s information collection speed was way faster than the information department operated by the royal palace to the point that Dyson was blown away.
“I’m frustrated so, this won’t do.”
I should invest in Zoe’s guild the first thing if I married Cassion and gained the authority to spend Irenberg’s property at my heart content.
I pulled the blanket and covered Cassion properly.
‘By the way, what happened to you, Your Highness?’
The question I wanted to ask Cassion was stuck in my chest like a stone.

Finally, the long-awaited Zoe visited me.
It was around the time I listened to the climax of the mystery novel read by Janice.
“Oh my god!”
Janice freaked out when she saw Zoe, who came through the window silently.
“You came, auntie.”
“Aren’t you surprised by me?”
It was because I saw her shadow.
I shrugged my shoulders. Janice mumbled, ‘Why didn’t anyone tell me anything?’ as she closed the book and stepped back.
“What about the favor I ask you to do?”
“I found him.”
“As expected, I knew you could find him.”
Zoe raised her eyebrows.
“You sometimes act like a hundred-year-old old man. People might think you have lived twice my age.”
It wasn’t that I was 100 years old, but it was my second life.
“I want to take my time to chat with you, but I’m in a hurry. Where is that person?”
Last night, Cassion suffered greatly.
The medicine I received from Dallas could not even reduce his pain.
So I needed the person I was looking for right now.
They were a genius person who quickly climbed to the palace’s doctor’s office due to the developing new medicine and new treatments but fell into the abyss due to the madness of being an anatomy lover.
‘Rupert.’
When I was 15, he developed a drug that magically reduces pain.
I remembered Cassion’s condition getting a little better after taking medicine.
‘I have to speed up the development of the cure as soon as possible.’
