Before she could start concocting Kyle’s medicine, she must report to Arnold.
She asked one of her knight guards to give him a message, who was supposed to be working in the main castle’s office.
Then, what came back as Arnold’s reply was a simple ‘I understand’.
What a surprise. Since it’s an act bordering diplomacy, it would likely be approved only under the supervision of His Highness Arnold.
Evidently, he really did intend to let Rishe be as free as possible. She knew she couldn’t see through his true intentions, so she got to work.
First off, I have to make liquid medicine!
With a basket full of medicinal herbs, Rishe headed to the royal villa as fast as she could. She lit a fire in the kitchen’s furnace to simmer the multiple processed herbs.
After asking a maid to take care of the pot, Rishe returned to the reception room and questioned Kyle while waiting for the medicine to boil.
“… I see. So you haven’t had much to eat on the road?”
Kyle looked down after Rishe asked.
“It’s embarrassing to admit, but my seasickness is terrible… At sea, I was holed up in my cabin the whole time.”
“That must have been difficult. So how about after you arrived at Garkhain?”
“I’ve been sick in the carriage since we’ve landed…”
Kyle seemed seriously dejected.
Michel smiled softly at the sight of the prince, serving.
“But Kyle did his best too. I think he did a great job battling the nausea.”
“… Michel, would you stop stroking my head?”
“I felt sorry for him. He threw up on the fruit too. I did manage to get him to put some water and ice in his mouth, but I’m just not cut out to take care of other people.”
Michel brushed Kyle’s silver hair with a plop as if he was patting a child.
“You should have brought an ordinary doctor with you instead of someone like me.”
Kyle then looked a bit stumped.
“The queen will give birth soon. The number of doctors serving the royal family is limited, so I should leave as many of them as possible. — Of course, I could have left you behind.”
“Entirely useless. Childbirth is a wonderful field, but it’s definitely not my area of expertise.”
“Some time ago, you came back in a bloody mess, saying ‘I was able to witness the birth of a cow.’ Wasn’t that part of your research?”
“Nope. I’ve never seen one and I was curious, so I just got into it on a whim.”
“… You’re the one who reduced the Koyor Castle in a state of terror for that reason…”
Rishe had heard that story too. She heard that there was a great commotion because of a bloody prowler walking around the castle.
It was said that not only Michel, but even Kyle, who had nothing to do with it, was called out by the queen and they were both scolded together.
Teacher often looks younger than 18-year-old Prince Kyle, you know. Though no one knows how old he is…

After all, Michel himself couldn’t remember his age.
On the outside, Michel looked like he was in his mid to late twenties.
But sometimes, he seemed more innocent than that, and sometimes he talked like he’s been living a long time.
“Anyway, we got to eat dinner today. I’m sure Kyle’s strength will recover little at a time.”
Michel said, but Kyle’s face remained detached.
“I’m ashamed for being unable to control myself. I need to be more strict with myself…”
“Prince Kyle.”
In Koyor, it was more common to honorably refer to him as ‘Prince’ than ‘Your Highness’.
So Rishe addressed Kyle that way, just as she had done in her former life.
“Self-care isn’t about being hard on yourself, it’s about cherishing yourself.”
“Cherish?”
“To start with, get plenty of rest; take a long bath; and eat lots of nutritious and delicious food. Stretch out, exercise, laugh a lot, and spend some time having a good time doing what you’re fond of doing.”
Rishe smiled at Kyle.
“You need to enjoy your life that way to be healthy.”
“Enjoy life…”
Rishe nodded as he chewed on the words repeatedly.
“Don’t worry about your return. I’ll prepare you some medicine to keep you from getting sick on the ship. You can take it home as a souvenir. I’m sure you’ll have more time to enjoy the scenery this time.”
Kyle looked a little surprised and then bowed his head deeply.
“Thank you, Lady Rishe.”
“No, please don’t dwell on it.”
She wanted him to get well, apart from diplomatic and other issues.
As she was contemplating, Michel said, “By the way, Rishe. You said it would take some time to concoct the medicine. So, in the meantime, would you like to read this?”
“!”
Michel nonchalantly pointed to the refining book he brought with him.
She has been wondering about it for a while now, but one possibility struck her. Like Rishe, Kyle seemed to have noticed it as well.
“That’s your research record you showed me the other day.”
“Yes. I wrote it down just like everyone else told me to, but it’s not really my thing. It’s all in my head.”
