Chapter 77 – 17. Demon Disease. (5)
Oops
Natasha opened her eyes. The blurry focus gradually became clearer, and soon the bright sunlight filled my vision.
……… Ah……….
She opened her eyes and lifted her upper body. Oops She groaned for a moment as the pain ran through her body, but she gritted her teeth and got up from her seat to go out onto the sunny terrace.
It was a peaceful morning full of warm sunlight and fresh air. She no longer felt disgusted. … What a longed-for moment this was!
Even though her heart broke, she couldn’t shed a tear. Instead, he let out a groan that was neither laughter nor cry.
She lived lived really…. Really….
Now everything is back to normal life. Except for her body.
Natasha went back into the room and gulped down the grain porridge on the table. I didn’t feel any disgusting taste. The ecstasy of playing on her tongue brought her to the point of climax.
She shouted hoarsely at her maid, who might be waiting outside her door.
“Ju-wook, die, bring more. More to die… !”
The maid, startled by the lady’s voice, opened the door. Ah-. The maid saw Natasha holding her bowl of porridge and banging it on the table, shouting for more porridge.
“Ah, I see!”
Soon, the news that Lady Natasha had awakened spread like wildfire through the Count’s mansion. All his brothers and sisters, including the Count, rushed in.
“Natasha, are you feeling better now? Oh my daughter… !”
The Countess also shed tears, rejoicing that her daughter’s disease was cured. Natasha, naturally blunt, of course, died. Even though she was alive, she stuck to her calm demeanor.
The Count, who came late, hugged the daughter who had woken up and patted her on the back.
“It was a lot of hard work. It was really hard. … Natasha, you were right. You overcame it with mental strength. You overcame it with your mental strength.”
All of them died within two months at the longest, but Natasha was the only one who survived for half a year. An achievement that would not have been possible if it had not been for the firm mentality to survive.
He was even cured of a demonic disease that was said to be almost incurable, so the feat is even greater.
Natasha, of course, did not think that all this was her own credit. Countess who did not give up until the end by her side, and Allen Danju, who grasped the root of this disease and rooted it out, were also credited.
“Your body still needs more rest, everyone, go back.”
The count defeated the family and was left alone. Natasha took another gulp of her lukewarm porridge brought by her maid.
“One more.”
After eating two more in a row, Natasha patted her stomach lightly. Only then did she feel that her body, which had always been limp, gained strength.
“…… Allen Danju, didn’t you come?”
The Count smiled meaningfully.
“I sent someone earlier, so they will arrive soon.”
Just as a tiger would come if he said it, the news that Allen Danju had arrived just in time reached him.
“Ah, Your Excellency was there too.”
“Well. I just finished my business.”
The Count was not a ignorant great man who interrupted the private time of the two of them. As soon as Arlen confirmed that the Count had left and slammed her door shut, she grinned at Natasha.
“Fortunately, you woke up safely.”
“The virtue of Allen Danju is great. Thank you, really.”
When Natasha nodded lightly, Allen smiled strangely and her eyes twinkled.
“If Lady couldn’t hold on, she wouldn’t have had a chance in the first place. Great.”
This time, she did not tremble in her humility. In such a terrible environment where even a single ray of sunlight made her feel nauseous, her mental strength, which she had endured for half a year by swallowing trash-tasting soup, was truly worthy of applause. …… She was thrilled to have her own terribly tearful struggles recognized by Allen Danzoo.
“Okay… , How do you feel?”
…… Impression…….
“I’m happy. …… To be alive.”
“Great, that’s how you feel.”
The two men and women looked at each other and smiled lightly.
“Then, just rest. Lady.”
“…… See you next time.”
Allen left a charming smile again, and she left like the wind. … His smile remained in her mind and could not be erased.

Count Villa gave a grand welcome to Allen Danju. How can you treat the benefactor who saved the life of her dearly cherished daughter?
“The public tax of sobriety. You did it. Really, she cured the devil disease.”
“It’s everyone’s credit. … In particular, my daughter held up well. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have had a chance.”
“…… Yes, it’s an opportunity that child didn’t let go until the end and grabbed hold of it. And you gave me that chance.”
Allen nodded lightly with a faint smile. At this point, I know that swallowing words in moderation is much more effective than talking about something.
The Count, who had been staring at him for a while, exclaimed, “Ah,” Then took out two heavy money bags he had prepared and put them on the table.
“Two thousand out of four thousand gold coins.”
Allen thought to herself what about the other two thousand? Count Villa revealed the inner circumstances of the count family.
“I had a bit of a problem getting a lot of gold coins out of the blue. The price of grain suddenly jumped the other day, and I used up a lot of my surplus money to keep it in abundance. So I guess I’ll need some more time… Can you ask for some understanding?”
“Oh, I see.”
It was an understandable situation. Grain prices skyrocketed all over the continent, and hoarding was rampant here and there. The Biya family probably felt a sense of crisis and even emptied their emergency funds to buy a lot of grain and store it. The Count could not have known that he would suddenly need thousands of gold coins in this way. … It was due to several coincidences.
“I’ll give you some jewels if you’re in a hurry.”
“No, you can arrange it slowly.”
It wasn’t that he wouldn’t give it to him, he said he would arrange it somehow, but Allen had the patience to wait that long. However, it is a bit cumbersome to receive and dispose of jewels….
Allen thought that she was treated as an honored guest here and that it would not be bad for her to rest and catch her breath for a while. Didn’t she run all the while from the west to here without a break?
He first took two thousand gold coins. In fact, this mission was nothing short of a great success. He got less than this for doing such a fucking job in the West.
“Til you get the money, rest here. If there is anything uncomfortable, talk to me anytime. … As I said then, you are no different from my comrades.”
“Since His Excellency cares so much, I really have nothing more to ask for. … Then let’s go.”
“Okay.”
Allen left the count’s office feeling a pleasant weight in his arms.

…… A month passed in the blink of an eye.
Natasha had put on quite a bit of flesh and muscle through her hard work. …… Her petite frame made her breasts a little smaller than average, but she was pretty ladylike now.
…… Huh. Overcome with mental strength…… !
Very little—-terrible Allen – Whenever she saw the cow-like breasts of a sorceress named Elena of the mercenaries, she used to feel an inexplicable sense of defeat…… She thought she had overcome with her mental strength.
If her breasts were that big, it would be cumbersome for her, so when she was immersed in her meditation while masturbating, her Allen came to visit her.
“I feel so much better now. It looks so much better.”
“… Thank you. I’ve only recovered about 30% of my original skill, but… , Yes, well, but this is a bit more useful.”
[Strength: 47] [Agility: 41] [Stamina: 39] [Intelligence: 16] [Magic power: 28]
[Genius] [Fortitude] [Recklessness] [Narcissism] [Sensitiveness] [Insomnia] [Education] [Trust] [Attachment]
Gum Milk Natasha’s stats changed in just a month. After about a month like this, she should be able to regain almost her former skills. Of course, it would be different depending on her efforts, but if she was more crazy about training than her practitioner Victor, there was a good chance that she would completely recover her skills. In particular, her growth rate, which has acquired the [Dukdo] Attribute, will noticeably improve.
…… To be honest, I would be lying if I said I didn’t like it. She is a person who will one day be a member of the Ten Rivers.
“I am leaving soon.”
ㅡㅡㅡ!!!
Natasha’s expression, which had always kept her calm, collapsed in an instant.
“… You left, did you?”
“Yes. I received all the rest of the payment not too long ago, so I have to leave tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Aren’t we a mercenary?”
I was thinking that someday. … But when she did, her heart raced and her chest felt tight.
“Okay….”
Allen stared blankly at Natasha for a long time, then walked over to her table and sat down in her chair. And she offered her a seat opposite her own.
As Natasha sat down in her seat, Allen opened her mouth, looking more serious than ever.
“Natasha. I want to recruit you into my mercenary squad.”
ㅡ!
He spoke bluntly, without twisting. Because she knows it works better for her.
“If you want, we can start negotiations right here.”
It was a new side of him she hadn’t seen before.
Allen waited patiently for Natasha to say anything to her.
… To be honest, she was a little shy to bargain herself. I don’t know if it was before, but now it’s still lacking a lot.
“…… Really, are you okay? If it’s just out of pity, I’d decline.”
“There is no such thing as sympathy. I’m very cold when it comes to my mercenary business. I decided it was okay, so I’m giving you an offer. … In the meantime, I’ve been reticent to focus on recovering, but I don’t have time to wait any longer.”
Natasha felt overwhelmed by Allen’s sharp gaze. …… Who would have known that such sharpness could be hidden in the warmth and composure.
“If you’re worried about how you feel right now, that’s okay. I’m looking at your future and investing. This is not a short-term contract, it is a long-term contract.”
Gum Milk Natasha thought for a moment and made a decision right away. … In fact, she and she desperately wanted to leave with him. She just kept quiet, fearing that if she said that she would follow her first, she would be a nuisance. But if he asks first, it’s a different story.
She didn’t have to think too long. She already wanted to leave with his mercenaries. So, she wanted to experience the wide world firsthand. I don’t hear it with words, I see it with my own eyes… !
“… I know. I would.”
She didn’t like this kind of rhetoric very much, she went straight without going round and round.
“Then, how much do you think the employment cost will be?”
“…… I do not know.”
She thought hard about something, then she spoke cautiously.
“That, how much does the wizard woman get?”
“Nothing has been decided yet… , Give me about twenty gold coins.”
I thought it was a bit small. A wizard only has twenty gold coins.
However, Danju Allen is not a great person to lie. It seems that there is some kind of situation between the two.
Still, she couldn’t push it hard. The other person was also a benefactor, and he knew his current condition well. Having a conscience, she couldn’t bear to act without conscience.
“… Then, I’ll take twenty one.”
Somehow I feel embarrassed… , No fighting spirit.
……… It’s never because of the chest. Never-!
“Good.”
Allen readily accepted. It is said that such a great talent will come in with just twenty gold coins, but of course I have to accept it.
“Twenty one gold coin per month for two years. Let’s decide that.”
“Okay, Allen Danju.”
Gum-lactating Natasha quickly grabbed the hand that Allen had extended to her.
……… I didn’t even know that it was the devil’s magic trick.
