“We need your help!”

 

“What’s the matter?!”

 

Surprised by this unexpected event, Khea and I approached Lorad.

 

“Inventory.”

 

I carefully whispered to call the inventory, pulling out my greatsword from it and tying it tight to my waist.

 

“Sheira and Pharah…”

 

“…What?”

 

As soon as he finished speaking, Khea jumped out of her seat and left, even though all he said was a couple of names.

 

I too got out of the house to chase after Khea.

 

The first thing I did was to get out to the main road to find Khea, and as I spotted her I ran after her as fast as I possibly could.

 

It wasn’t too hard to catch up with her thanks to my explosively elevated stat.

 

The place where Khea stopped was a huge three-story wooden building.
I followed behind her and carefully moved my feet into the house.

 

And in that instant,

 

“I will never see a dirty player bastard come into my house!”

 

An old elf from inside came up to me and started swinging a broomstick relentlessly.
Flustered, I took a step back as Khea stood in front of me.

 

“Where are Sheira and Pharah?”

 

“My goodness, Khea.
Please save my children…”

 

“Where are they!?”

 

At Khea’s exasperated voice, the old elf man collapsed to the ground and started weeping.
Khea put her hand on his shoulder and said,

 

“I’m here to stop anything from happening.
And the person standing behind me is my most trusted colleague.
I swear it in the name of Bellica the God of the Sun.”

 

As soon as she finished her words, the man bowed his head to me.

 

“I’m sorry! Please, my daughters…”

 

I knelt down to face him as I put both my hands on his shoulders.

 

“Please do not worry.
Nothing bad will happen.”

 

As I calmed the elf man down and climbed the narrow steps following after Khea, a loud voice echoed from beyond her.

“I need it! Where is it! I need ‘that’!”

 

My heart sank at the moment I heard the tearing scream coming from a woman.

 

As I hurried my footsteps and approached cautiously, there was a writhing woman and Khea holding her down firmly.

 

She showed wicked and bizarre beastly movements that were driven only by instinct with her slender body, while the contrast caused by her beauty made chills go down my spine.

 

Saliva was dripping from her mouth, and her eyes were out of focus.
All of the clothes she was wearing were torn to the point of revealing her skin.

 

In the meantime, she continued her seizures with all her might toward Khea.

 

Whenever Khea let go of her for just a moment, she started to ruthlessly scratch herself.

 

“M-Mose!”

 

Khea's face was filled with despair and sorrow.  As soon as I looked at her face I quickly moved closer to the writhing woman and gently pressed her shoulders down.

 

“Give it…! You…
Are a player! Give it to meee!! Noow!”

 

Being suppressed down by my strength, all she could do is wobble her arms and legs around, screaming slurred words.

 

A feeling of regret suddenly rushed in, thinking I should’ve learned a magic that could calm her down.

 

“Sheira, calm down! Please!”

 

Despite Khea's desperate request, she continued her rampage, but suddenly, she stopped moving.
And after a brief moment,

 

“Gurrg…Urrgh…”

 

She started to make gurgling noises, then she started to vomit with foam in her mouth.

 

“Oh my god, Mose! Call the doctor! Hurry!”

 

As soon as I heard Khea’s shout I leaped out of the house in a hurry.
On my way to get the doctor, I ran into Lorad who was running from afar.

 

“How are they?!”
 

“This is too serious!”

 

“As I expected…”

 

“We need a doctor, now!”

 

Knowing that the situation was getting serious, Lorad motioned his hand to follow, then started sprinting with his short legs like crazy.

 

And so, I was led to the 'Healing Forest' Hospital by Lorad.

 

“This is the hospital, but…”

 

I ran into the hospital before Lorad could even finish his words.

 

And at the scene that unfolded before my eyes,

 

I almost lost strength in my two legs.

 

Countless people were convulsing like fish out of the water on a mobile wooden bed.
The commotion reminiscent of a battlefield and the screams of the patients were enough to put this place in complete chaos.

 

“What kind of poisoning is this?!”

“Is this food poisoning?!”

 

“Here! Please pay some attention to patients who are players!”

 

Standing in the midst of that tornado of screams, I couldn’t do anything but to just look around me in vague despair.

 

Then a player like me appeared suddenly grabbing my hand.

 

“Excuse me, are you by any chance a magician or an alchemist?”

 

“I…”

 

“Please help us! The poison debuff won’t go away.
No potions seem to work too!”

 

After that, other players also started to cling to me.

 

“I heard alchemists and magicians can dispel these debuffs very easily, what is your class…?”

 

“I’m sorry, I’m not…”

 

After hearing my response, all of them went back to the patients that they were taking care of.

 

After standing still again and concluding that it was impossible to take a doctor from here, I sprinted again.

 

As I arrived back at the house, I saw the old elf man weeping on the floor, captured by despair.
Tears were endlessly flowing from his eyes.

 

When I climbed up the stairs, I found Khea leaning against the wall on the floor hugging her knees.

 

There were blood drops all over the bed sheet, and the writhing woman was lying on the bed unconscious barely breathing.

 

And beside her, there laid another half-elf that looked the same as her.

 

She laid there without a single motion, she seemed to have passed away.

 

“I only found out after calming Sheira down.”

 

Khea's sobbing voice made the back of my neck stiffen.

 

“Pharah…
That poor thing…”

 

After hearing Khea’s voice like that,

 

An indescribable weight of anger began to form inside me.

 

“Khea.”

 

“Yeah.”

 

“From now on, I'm going to use everything I've learned and gained on whoever 's responsible for this.”

 

Khea stopped her sobbing.

 

“Do you swear on the name of Bellica?”

 

She said with a resolute voice.

 

She also gritted her teeth.
She was thinking the same thing as me.

 

“I do.”
