Chapter 12: 12

Under my palm there is a comfortable and fluffy texture.

I am sure. . .

When I opened my eyes with unsteady thoughts, my eyes met with the black panther, His Highness Gresis.

“Hya!”
I was so surprised that I couldn’t calm down my heartbeat.

It seems that I fell asleep with my hand on His Highness Gresis’s back.
I jumped out of the bed in a panic.

“Excuse me, how are you feeling?”
“It’s much easier now.”
It seems that even in the form of a black panther, words can be spoken.

“I’m glad. Then I’ll go back to-”
my room. Just as I was about to say that, I heard a knock on the door.

“Come in.”
“Good morning, I brought you breakfast.”

Dolph, the butler, brought breakfast for two, porridge and a normal meal, on a wagon.

“Her Highness Princess Lilith, thank you for your hard work. Please have your meal here today.”
He quickly started preparing a meal on the small table set next to the bed.

“Um, I. . .”

I’ll be going back to my room soon, so I’ll have breakfast there. I was going to say that, but breakfast was completely ready.

“I have work to do, so it would be helpful if you could help His Highness with his meal. . .”

Dolph’s line of sight glanced at a certain point, so when I traced his gaze, I ended up at the forefoot of His Highness Gresis.

I see. That must be very inconvenient.

“If you’re okay with me, I’ll help.”
“Please do so. It is very helpful.”
I received a plate of porridge from Dolph.

“I can at least eat by myself, what happened to the other chamberlains?”
“Everyone is collapsed from the infectious disease. Your Highness Gresis can’t use your hands right now. Please give up so that Your Highness doesn’t have to eat your meal directly from the bowl. Your Highness Princess Lilith, please.”

Dolph smiled at me and left.
I quickly scooped up the porridge with a spoon and brought it to His Highness Gresis’s mouth.

“Yes, please open your mouth.”
It’s embarrassing so I could never do something like this to a humanoid man. But if it’s a black panther, there’s no problem.

“You don’t have to do something that a maid does like this.”
“This is what I want to do. You told me I could do whatever I wanted.”
I tilt my head.

“. . . . . . .”
His Highness Gresis ate the rice porridge I offered him with a sigh.

“Cute.”
The voice of my heart leaked out involuntarily.
At that time, I felt that His Highness Gresis’s ears twitched.

“. . . Why don’t you eat your own food instead of helping me with mine?”
“Thank you very much, but I will be fine until later. This is more fun.”

It’s very rude, but it was like feeding a safe and cute large pet.

“It’s fun. . .”
He turned his face away.
He may have been in a bad mood. But there’s still porridge left.

“There’s more. Yes, please eat.”
I think it was a little forceful. Can you eat it for me? While thinking that, I carry the porridge to His Highness Gresis’s mouth.

“. . . . . .”
He ate the whole meal even though he seemed to be dissatisfied.
It looks like he has recovered quite well. But I can’t let my guard down.

“I’ll go take a look at how the house is doing.”
His Highness Gresis tried to move, but I hurriedly covered him and held him down with my body.

“Not yet. Please rest until you return to your human form.”
“. . . that a woman who pushes me down would appear. . .”

“I didn’t mean to push you down.”

I did something I shouldn’t have done.
My face suddenly became hot and I moved away immediately.

“It’s okay because it’s gotten much better now. It’s fine now.”
“That’s because I temporarily helped your healing power to heal you with Healer. To cure the illness itself requires time. If you move without physical strength, the power to heal will weaken and you will return to the state you were originally in. That’s why. . .”

“What is Healer?”
“Huh?”
I realized that my mouth slipped unintentionally and hurriedly made up an excuse.

“Well, it’s something like a charm in the Seiran Kingdom. . .”
“Hmm, beastmen are creatures that are sensitive to emotions. Especially when it comes to immediately understanding lies.”

“. . . That’s right, isn’t it.”
I regretted the lightness of my mouth. I have no choice but to give up and speak in this situation.

“Healer is a power that only I have, and it heals those who I touch. In my homeland, it was treated as top secret.”
“Why is it treated as top secret?”

“My father said that if Healer is known, I could be persecuted as a witch, used by heatless people, or kidnapped. Even when I left to get married to the Tenar Kingdom, I was told never to let Healer be known and not to use it.”

“. . . Well, if the king of the Seiran Kingdom is keeping it a secret, then it should be kept a secret in our country as well. I swear that I won’t talk about Healer without your permission.”

“Thank you. Then please rest in bed until you recover to human form.”

“Okay. I’ll comply. I don’t want to go back to the original painful state.”

His Highness Gresis lay down on the bed with ‘pohun’ and turned away.

“Then, I will go back to my room for now. I will visit you again.”
I called out behind me and continued walking to the door.

“. . . Thank you, Lilith.”
I was surprised when my name was called for the first time, and when I turned around, His Highness was still facing away.

“You’re welcome. Please take care of yourself.”
After saying that, I went back to my private room.

I closed the door and smiled bitterly.
“I broke my promise to my father as soon as I got married.”

Keep the fact that you’re a healer a secret and never use your powers. I remembered my father’s face.

I’m sorry I couldn’t keep my promise. But I have no regrets.

In my heart, I apologized to my family back home.

 

I’m glad this experience had at least one good think come out of it by helping them become even a little closer.

Sorry for the lack of updates. I had to take a break due to bad health but I plan to have a regular update schedule of at least three chapters a week from now on.
