Chapter 35 – 35. The First Great Crisis of the Other World Summoner (2)

– One –

The day was bright.

Haha. Heugh! Ah, it hurts…!”

The details of Urmama, who had been quiet the night before, became more serious.

During the night, pus formed on each fiery flower that bloomed on her skin.

“Kkeok! Kkuk! Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh! Shut it off!”

Chew!
Charlere!
Rumble.

Sudden convulsions or vomiting

Twisting her whole body, rolling over the blanket.

Since there was nothing to eat, only yellow gastric juice was poured out.

“Maman! Are you okay, Maman?”

Monohorn had barely fallen asleep at dawn.

Then, in the middle of the morning, she woke up frightened to hear the voice of Ur Mama, who suddenly started having seizures.

I urgently touch her forehead.

‘It’s hot!’

Monohorn’s eyes burn with anxiety and anger.

She looks around

“It’s a big deal.”

Among them, there is no one who can memorize the Holy Law of Healing or the Holy Law of Detoxification.

No one has proper medical knowledge.

“Hey, Jin. Mamang hasn’t eaten anything since yesterday. Also, the cold might have made him more weak and his symptoms have worsened. If the vomiting stops and Mamang has trouble swallowing, boil some grain-based rice wine and feed him some.”

Monohorn couldn’t find a reasonable way beyond Calvados’s opinion.

She nodded her head at his words, and she just quietly patted Ur Mama on the back.

She wiped her dirty mouth and put her new wet towel on her forehead.

“Can you both leave for a moment?”

She looks at Calvados and Martell and asks them to leave.

The two left for about an hour, saying they would scout and come back.

“Fuck. Fuck. Fuck…”

Mono Horn looks at her status window.

================== Status window ==================
▶ Name: Monohorn

==========================================

“Don’t get sick, please. It shouldn’t hurt…!”

Ur Mama has been poisoned since yesterday, which is evident in her status window.

It doesn’t change.

There is no natural detoxification.

Fortunately, the message that her life is critical is not output.

As long as she doesn’t neglect or overdo it, she won’t end her life.

It will.

‘If only I had seen this a little sooner… ! No, if I had paid a little more attention…’

As Mono Hon took care of her ur mama all night, she sensed a subtle alienation from her.

No, that sense of difference continued even before she collapsed yesterday.

‘This wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t passed it and checked the status window… Haha, you stupid bastard stupid kid. Dog crap.’

He just assumed it was her mood and overlooked her sense of alienation at the time.

‘Ha, but damn, what’s so unkind? With no notifications, how could I know that the strange feeling was due to Urmama being poisoned? There was even a vibration, sir.’

In the end, realizing that nothing would get better by her complaining, Monohorn carefully undressed Ur Mama.

‘I have to finish it quickly before Martel and Calvados come.’

He makes her naked by her campfire.

I picked up her wet towel from the fire and wiped her body.

Swoop, Swoop.

“Huh, huh. I hope…”

Crying is mixed with Monohorn’s voice.

Because bright yellow purulent discharge flowed out of the skin all over her body, it wasn’t a cry that burst out because she couldn’t stand her hideousness.

The gastric juice she vomited was sour, and it wasn’t even the tears she could not stand.

“Hey… Maman, I’ll be sure to protect you…”

It was her tears that flowed down as she couldn’t overcome the deep guilt she felt for not being able to protect her.

Swoop, Swoop.

Even with gentle wiping, her towel is stained with blood and pus.

Unfold the soiled towel and fold it again so that the clean side is out.

Wipe

Even the flowing tears are wiped with the sleeve.

“Hero…”

Her throat and thyroid glands are so swollen that a hoarse, twisted voice squeezes through her lips.

Her eyelids were so swollen that she couldn’t even open her eyes properly.

“It’s okay… Cool!”

“Yes, mamang. You’ll be fine. It’s fine. You’re getting better. You’re making progress. Are you sick anywhere?”

Seeing her barely come to her senses, Mono Horn suppresses her desire to make a lot of fuss.

Calmly, calmly.

As if nothing had happened, I smiled quietly and asked.

“De, back, cool! Ah,”

She, unable to speak her words, gently rolls her on her blanket and makes her face down.

A large abscess had grown on her back.

Look around.

Sharp needles are not visible.

Pick up tree roots

Square, square.

Sharpen it with her knife.

Sign!
Shiver.

Bursting the abscess with a wooden needle and wiping away the bleeding fluid.

Don’t worry about infection.

The blessing of the goddess would prevent that much.

“Ah…!”

There is peace in her dry voice.

“Does it only hurt here?”

“Yes…”

“It’s good. I’ll clean it up for you, just a little bit.”

Mono Horn thought she was lucky that Ur Mama hadn’t noticed the ugly way she swallowed her tears.

Perhaps she has a high fever and her vision is blurred, making it difficult to see properly in front of her.

Swoop, Swoop.

“It’s all cleaned up. I’ll dress you now.”

“…”

“Oh, no…?”

When Urmama doesn’t answer, Monohorn gets scared.

New liquid, new liquid.

But she lets out her sigh of relief, letting out an even breath and confirming that she is asleep.

Dress up.

I tightened her collar.

Because she fainted, she is glad she didn’t see her own hand, which trembled with anxiety.

She collects pebbles warmed by the fire overnight and wraps her cloak in them.

She takes Ur Mama into her arms and covers her with her own cloak.

Tuck, Tuck.

“Hey, did you wait?”

“No, it’s just over. Do you think we can leave now?”

“Uh. The snow is much weaker than yesterday. Let’s hurry up and eat breakfast and go out right away.”

“Yes.”

As Monohon wiped Urmama’s body, she thought that Urmama’s food would have to be thrown away.

But she can’t just throw away her share of food.

He didn’t need to let the traitor know that he had noticed that someone had poisoned his food.

Jose’s advice shines through.

Just as she was meant to be, she takes her grain flour from her pocket where she kept her share of food.

Passasak.
Pasch.

Breaking up her clumps of powder with her fingers.

Pour a small amount into a bowl.

Close your eyes and put them in.

Without seasoning, boil it over an open fire as it is.

Bubbling.
Chii.

It boils quickly.

Leave it in your eyes for a while to cool it down so it doesn’t get too hot.

“Damn, wake up for a moment.”

Shake Urmama awake.

“Ooh, ooh.”

She instinctively burrows into his arms.

She hugs her gently and props her up on her back.

“Hero, I, Cool! I can’t, I will eat, Cool.”

Her field constantly soothes her coughing cough and feeds her hearty food spoon by spoonful.

Whoops, whoops.

It’s already cooled down enough, but blow it out one more time before feeding.

As if that would make her get better faster, he carefully feeds Ur Mama her own boiled Mieum.

“It’s okay, it’s okay. That’s right, eat well. Shouldn’t we eat all of them?”

“Oooh.”

Even when she slaughtered, Monohorn steadfastly fed Mi-eum.

Looking at them, Calvados and Martell felt sorry for them.

But they don’t approach or help.

It was because I had already seen Monohorn vehemently rejecting it several times.

Pat Pat.

Monohorn gently patted her back as she swallowed all her heart.

It was a sincere and careful touch, like patting the back of a baby who had finished drinking formula.

“Geug. Ah, ah…!”

Urmama, whose burp leaked out without his knowledge, blushes and feels ashamed.

The face of her Mono Horn looking at her becomes much more comfortable.

At least she has the spirit to feel ashamed of.

If so, it wouldn’t be so dangerous that she would die right away.

Mono Horn thinks so again and takes her heart.

“Let’s carry it now. Can we go with it on our back?”

“Yes, yes…”

She replies with her head down.

Monohorn quickly chewed on the jerky before the others finished their meal.

He chewed on her and wrapped her around her.

She took a sip of water.

She made her own cloak like a swaddle over her ur mama.

On top of that she puts on a thick winter coat.

“Damn, do I have to hold on tight so I don’t fall?”

“Yes, yes…”

She was thrilled that her Mono Horn was carrying her for the first time.

I was able to forget the pain for a while.

She puts her nose on the nape of his neck and savors his body odor.

Sniff, sniff.

“Mu, what are you doing, mamang! You’re sweating!”

“Euhh~♬ Kk. The smell of the warrior~ Cool.”

“Haha. Do what you like. Calvados, Martell. Let’s go now.”

Monohorn urged the way towards the two giggling at them.

“Okay, let’s go.”

They roughly cleaned the place where they were staying and went out into the snow.

Another hard day has begun.

– 2 –

“Wow, wow!

‘Eh, why?! Why didn’t it get better?’

Riding on Monohorn’s back, Urmama vomited profusely on his back.

‘Status window!’

================== Status window ==================
…
▶ Message from the Goddess: Your spouse has a [Weak poisoning] Condition!
==========================================

‘Damn… ! Why did it get worse? Isn’t the food poisoned?’

His voice comes out trembling.

At least I’m not shivering from the cold.

“It’s okay, it’s going to be okay, please! I’m going back to the garrison today!”

Monohorn patted her on the butt, leaving her to vomit.

You can’t even wipe her body in the snow.

Rather than stopping and wasting time, it was better to move even one step ahead and return to the garrison.

Only then can you receive treatment.

‘Why is only Urmama poisoned? Are towels poisonous? No. I didn’t even touch the towel before it was poisoned. Is it like stinging? Is the boil on your back the mark of a sting? What? Why?’

Confusion mounts.

Calvados stops in front and waits for him.

“Jin, shall we take a little rest? Mamang’s condition isn’t good.”

“It’s okay, just go, Calvados! There’s nothing to get better by just being here blankly anyway!”

Calvados nodded with a heavy expression.

Return to the front

‘What the fuck is real? You drank the same water as me. I threw away all my share. You drank mine and it got worse? What? What have I missed?’

I try not to outwardly express my agitation.

Try to be calm.

Think.

‘Let’s just look at the situation. We drank the same water and ate the same food. We marched together, we were in the same place. There was never a single attack or sniping.’

Review yesterday’s actions.

‘What Urmama ate and drank, I and everyone else ate and drank. So, was Urmama poisoned before departure? Then, aren’t they both traitors?’

Inconclusive.

It was then.

“This is the east side. Since we left the west gate of the garrison yesterday, we’ve mostly moved west. So if we go back east like this, the garrison will come out.”

“Well, is there any guarantee that we won’t be completely disoriented during the blizzard?”

While Monohorn ponders, Martell and Calvados quarrel.

“It doesn’t take long to wander in a blizzard. It’s hard to imagine that the direction has changed much.”

“But the mountain peak over there is familiar. It is similar to the terrain seen near the west gate of the garrison. The terrain to the east is not at all similar to the garrison’s surroundings. The risk is too great.”

“I am the guide, the leader. Respect.”

“And that handsome guide did a great deal for our shipwreck yesterday.”

“That, that’s…! Didn’t you also provide the wrong information about the destination! Even so, would you say that I’m the only one responsible for the distress?!”

Their voices rise.

“Stop it. I apologize if I spoke too harshly. I’m sorry. But this time, I want you to respect my words when setting the direction. I’ll ask you.”

When Calvados first bends over and asks for it, Martel chews her lips and ponders.

“Okay. If you lead me astray, take responsibility for it.”

“Okay. I’ll take care of it.”

“If it’s the right way, I’ll apologize. But if it’s the wrong way, I’ll leave this party.”

“Martell…!”

The reason why words that don’t have to be said right now to each other is obviously because they are tired and anxious.

But in Monohorn’s eyes, who still couldn’t conclude that they weren’t traitors, they seemed to be deceiving themselves.

It was hateful, and again, hateful.

“Once we have a conclusion, let’s hit the road. We don’t have time to be like this right now.”

Startle.

Monohorn’s cold voice squeezed between the two of them.

Both of them look back at Monohorn and Urmama covered in vomit on his back with a puzzled face.

Only then did they regain their sanity.

“Mi, I’m sorry.”

“I’m sorry too. Damn, I’m sorry Martell too. I must be nervous too.”

“I accept your apology. For now, I will act immediately as suggested by the leader.”

Walk

Bubbly.

Walk again

Ha, ha, ha

Monohorn’s breathing becomes increasingly rough.

The sound of Urmama’s rough breathing was also faintly mixed into it.

Calvados is back again.

“Jin. Do you want me to carry you? You’ll burn out after that.”

Monohorn silently shook his head.

“If the vanguard is physically incapacitated, it becomes more dangerous in case of emergency. Just leave it to him.”

Martell intervenes and calmly reprimands Calvados.

Both of them are emotionally charged, so they try to be as gentle as possible.

Martel reaches into her backpack and pulls out her water bag.

“Take a sip.”

“I’ll drink mine. Water is said to be obtainable by melting the snow, but there is no wine right now.”

Monohorn suitably declined her consideration, and returned her to her lieutenant position.

Then, a thought crossed her mind.

‘Wine… ? Did Urmama drink water with wine?’

Suddenly, questions started popping up in his head.
