Kylo’s brow furrowed at the sound of a big deal.
“What? What.”
He asked quickly, but Anna hesitated. She must have been frustrated, so the soldier who came with her answered for her.
“The drinking water supply here has been completely cut off, Commander.”
“What?”
“For two days now, only water mixed with monster blood has been coming out of the water pipes. It seems like there is a problem with the river in the village because it is a water pipe that runs from the village….”
“Is there any place with clear water nearby?”
“The water around the shelter is all covered in blood.”
“Shit…..”
The relief supplies they brought didn’t include clean water.
To begin with, the village had a large river and a well-built water pipe, so there was no shortage of water.
Because it was isolated and far from surrounding villages, getting drinking water was a problem.
If the water had been cut off two days ago, it meant that the people in the shelter hadn’t had a sip of water since then.
In addition, there were sick people here who were injured due to the damage of the war.
Without water, the sick would soon die.
Kylo, who had been thinking of various ways, paused.
Wait, now that I think about it, Princess Agnes was a mage.
The only mage left in the Black Knights, where all the mages have gone to prison.
The basic ability of mages is purification magic.
It would be difficult to purify all the river water mixed with monster blood, but it would be possible to use water for immediate use.
“Where did Princess Agnes go?”
As Kylo asked, another soldier standing next to him pointed to one side.
“She went to the place where the sick were gathered.”
“Sick people?”
It was unexpected.
There is no way that Princess Agnes would have gone to treat the sick without asking her to do so.
Although the princess had excellent healing powers, she had never used them.
She can even cure that damn incurable disease caused by demons.
There was no way that someone like her would easily treat her sick people if they came here.
He also felt anxious that she might become evil or cause an accident.
Emperor Alexander seemed to care very much about his princess’s reputation.
If the princess did something to the sick people here and even a bad rumor spreads..
It was obvious that the emperor would blame her daughter’s mistakes on him, the person in charge.
Kylo hurried to the building pointed to by the soldier.
The dilapidated temporary building had a smell of medicinal herbs right from the entrance.
It was also the smell of an herb that was often used as a mercenary.
These days, many good drugs have been released, but they are very expensive. In the end, the only medicine that the poor could rely on was herbs.
‘The princess came into this dirty and narrow place?’
Kylo clicked his tongue at the harsher environment than he expected.
However, as soon as I passed the entrance, I heard the cries of people sobbing.
Shit…!
It was clear that the princess had had another accident in that short period of time. What are we going to do with the sick people already?!
Kylo’s brows furrowed as he quickly went inside. For a moment, he covered his eyes with his elbow as the bright light poured in.
As a tremendous brightness appeared and disappeared, my vision became blurred.
As soon as the trace of light disappeared, what was visible was silver hair mixed with light purple that glowed even in a dull place.
Originally, there were two diseases that originated from demons.
One was a disease in which the person was completely demonized, turning his skin black like a monster, losing his senses, and running towards people like a zombie, biting them.
They could only be killed by burning them like when dealing with monsters.
It was the saint who could purify it.
And another disease was an incurable disease that didn’t cause the person to become a demon and destroy his or her personality, but gradually caused the entire body to turn red.
The symptoms started from the tips of feet and gradually moved up upper body, and I couldn’t feel anything in the areas that had turned red.
The speed of symptom onset varied greatly from person to person.
Some people progressed very slowly, while others became quadriplegic and died after becoming black from the top of their head to the top in just one day.
Although it wasn’t an infectious disease, it was also a disease for which there was no cure.
The one who could save them was one of the few magicians of light in the empire.
People with magical communication abilities that are far superior to those of ordinary mages.
People called them magicians of light, and usually they could only reach that level by cultivating their skills over a long period of time.
Agnes was also the youngest light mage in the empire.
And she showed off that ability for the first time today.
People who had been waiting for death but saw a miracle right before their eyes were shocked.
The sick people in the building included four terminally ill patients, twenty-five soldiers who had recently been seriously injured in the village, and fifteen critically ill patients injured by debris.
However, with just one radiance from Agnes, the illnesses of everyone present were cured.
“oh my god…My arm is back!”
“Oh God… !”
“Thank you thank you… !”
“A miracle… !”
People cried with emotion as the pain that had been weighing on their bodies disappeared along with a wonderful miracle.
It was a blessing of warm light that made it worth all the time I endured.
In the midst of that light, Agnes was smiling gently like an angel.
She had a cowardly smile with all sorts of pretense, but at least in the eyes of the people present, she looked like a miraculous angel who descended with a ray of light from the dark clouds.
Kylo, too, was among those people and witnessed the miracle given by Agnes.
A dazzling afterimage circled around Agnes like a halo of light.
***
When loud cries were heard from the building where the sick were gathered, people who were transporting relief supplies and people who were watching were surprised and gathered around the building.
The villagers couldn’t hide their surprise as the sick, who seemed like they would die tomorrow, began to walk out unharmed.
“The princess healed us!”
“Thank you for the royal family’s blessing!”
People who were sick praised the princess with moved expressions.
The eyes of the rest of the village were filled with surprise and curiosity.
Agnes was embarrassed when she was met with friendly gazes, unlike when she first entered the village.
She smiled so gently that the corner of her mouth almost twitched.
“Thank you, princess.”
“Thank you!”
Agnes waved her hand with the kindest expression on her face.
“I was just following the leader’s instructions as a member of the knights.”
When Agnes spoke humbly and gave the credit to Kylo, people’s eyes turned to Kylo.
The Black Knights committed crimes during the war and most of their members went to prison.
And leading them is the blood-crazed, mad knight Kylo Gray.
People here, far from the capital, knew the exaggerated rumors about Kylo Gray, who sucked and drank the blood of monsters, to be true.
However, the Kylo Gray they actually saw didn’t look as scary as a monster; rather, he was a young and handsome young knight.
Perhaps it was because they witnessed the miracle performed by the princess right in front of their eyes, but even the black knights who came with them began to look like heroes due to the bouquet effect.
Their leader, Kylo, looked especially cool.
The people who complained at first, asking why the Black Knights and the Princess came instead of the Saint and the White Knights, are no longer there.
In any case, the saint had no healing ability and only the ability to purify demonized humans.
People felt guilty about their prejudices and looked at the Knights from a different perspective than before.
It was then.
“Captain, what should we do with the drinking water?”
One of the soldiers asked nervously.
If there is no drinking water, big problems will eventually arise.
Kylo said, recalling his original purpose.
“… First, guide me to the stream connected to the village river. I’ll have to see for myself how much it is.”
“I will guide you!”
The village chief came forward in person.
Kylo was still dumbfounded by the miracle he had just witnessed, but he had to do his job.
he said to Agnes.
“The water used for drinking appears to be contaminated. I think it started with the village river that runs from the water pipe… .”
Kylo looked at Agnes’ complexion with a suspicious expression.
If you used that much magic, you definitely wouldn’t have any energy left.
Most mages were like that.
Just performing a single healing spell caused great physical exhaustion.
