At this time, Natha found that her body was no longer numb, but there were some muscle soreness. She raised her hand in surprise and found that she could move each of her slender fingers … She lifted her leg and saw the brown quilt covering her body.
There was no bleach in this era, and pure white fabrics were very expensive to make. Natha thought that she was in a wooden house in Elsa's village, but when she looked up, she found that the environment around her was a little strange.
Everything in the room was High Elf style. There was a fruit plate and a cup of water on the table next to her. The cup was filled with a dark green liquid. It looked strange, but it had a pleasant smell. She looked out of the window in a daze for a long time before she realized that she was in the city of Hollier.
"You're awake?"
A figure appeared outside the door. Turning her head, Natha found that it was the Grand Arcanist Edith, whom she hadn't seen for a long time. She immediately realized that she was in the Hercino Magic Tower — but she didn't know how she got here.
"Drink some potions. It'll help you recover."
Edith pointed at the cup of water. Natha knew that she wouldn't lie to her, so she obediently took the cup and drank it. As soon as it entered her mouth, she felt as if she hadn't drunk water for a long time. She drank the refreshing liquid in one gulp. When she put it down, she realized that she was no longer hungry like before she fainted.
"Your Excellency Grand Arcanist …"
"There's no need to call me that." Edith waved her hand. "You've been in a coma for three days. When you came, your condition was a little serious. Fortunately, you were treated in time, so you should be fine now."
Her posture was gentle and there was no pressure. She sat beside her and continued, "If you have any questions, you can ask me. You're currently in the 'ICU'. If you have any requests, you can also ask me."
Natha had heard of the term "ward" before. Many churches in the Rose Cross had built wards specifically for treating patients with serious conditions. And the "ward" in the Hercino Magic Tower … Wasn't it prepared for Dragons?
"Your Excellency, how did I get here?"
This was the biggest doubt in her heart. Edith pointed outside the window. That was the direction of the Forest of Silent Whispers. "After you asked Nora to pass the message, she went straight to Paar's territory. Then, she took the Falcon Fighter to the capital. However, the news of your injury traveled faster than a plane. Not long after she left, Prime Minister Roddy had already contacted the Dragons urgently. After discussion, they sent a Green Dragon to fly to the Silent Forest and bring you here. "
Natha was stunned. Then, she felt a lump in her throat and turned her head to the side.
"You're badly injured. If the green dragon hadn't gone, you would've died in Elsa's village. Fortunately, the green dragon is proficient in nature magic and helped to stabilize your condition. "Edith saw her shoulders twitching and knew that this wood elf was a little emotional at the moment. However, he still had to say what he needed to say. "But even so, I'm afraid that your limbs were not preserved. You probably stayed in the snow for more than two days. When they found you, your limbs were already frozen stiff."
Hearing this, Natha involuntarily raised her hands. Her slender fingers moved flexibly. There seemed to be no problem, but she soon found that the calluses left by her years of archery practice were gone. She lifted the quilt and found that she was wearing loose pajama pants. Her white and tender feet had baby-like skin. This was completely different from what she remembered. Because she wore leather boots to carry out missions all year round, her feet were also full of calluses, and there were obvious marks on her ankles. But now, everything was gone.
"This … is Sally. Is it His Majesty's divine spell?"
She couldn't think of anyone else who could recover a body that was already dead. But Edith shook her head. "His Majesty's divine spell also couldn't work. She tried many times and even wiped her tears several times."
"Then …"
"It's Lord Morales."
"Ah?"
Edith's answer stunned Natha for a few seconds. Then, she realized that this name belonged to the previous lord of the Green Dragons.
Asking a lord to heal him? Natha couldn't believe it, but her intact limbs proved that it was not a joke.
She fell silent and looked down at her hands … After a while, she said, "He — I mean, the Prime Minister, he must have paid a great price …"
"I don't know about this, because he is still dealing with those official affairs in the Royal City." Edith said as she got up. "If it's possible, let's go out for a walk. Move your limbs and see if there's anything wrong. If you feel uncomfortable, remember to report to me at any time. "
She pointed to a small magic circle on the bedside table. "If you need my help, put your hand on it and I'll come."
"Okay … Okay."
Natha pretended to rub her eyes, but in fact, she was trying hard to wipe her tears on her hands. Even so, when she got out of bed, her eyes were still red.
She put on the soft leather slippers and walked a few steps in the room. Then, she found that whether it was her legs or arms, they were more coordinated and powerful than before. In the past, due to long hours of longbow practice, her bones were somewhat deformed, but now these deformities had completely disappeared, and she could feel that when she clenched her fists, there was a strange power condensing.
"Lord Morales has paid a great price. Now, you have some of the aura of the Dragons on you."
Edith pushed the door of the ward open. "You probably have to rest here for a while, so let me introduce you to the various areas here."
Natha was already a little numb to such information. She pulled the loose "hospital gown" and followed Edith out.
After coming out of the "special care ward", Natha realized that there were six similar wards, but only her room was occupied. When she went downstairs along the circular staircase, she found a lot of handsome elven men and women chatting and laughing. After a closer look, she found that they were all Dragons.
"Your Excellency Edith!"
"Hello, Your Excellency!"
"Is this … a newcomer?"
When the Dragons saw Edith, they all greeted her politely, and even talked about Natha with laughter. Edith introduced them to this Wood Elf. The Dragons were not fools. How could an ordinary Wood Elf enter Hercino's "special care ward"? Without even thinking, they knew that she was an extremely important person, so they greeted her politely.
"If you need help here, just look for us. As long as you don't leave the Magic Tower, we can help you settle any matter in any Half Plane!"
"Stop bragging. If you don't line up, I'll submit my paper first!"
"Line up, line up. Stop fooling around."
Looking at their lively manner, Natha could not believe that these people were the noble and cold Dragons in her impression. After asking Edith, she learned that they were lining up to submit their written papers to the mages of the Magic Tower for review. If they passed, they would be given points according to the level of the paper.
Some time ago, a "get-together" was held here, and almost all members of the five major dragon clans were invited to participate. As a result, the various entertainment methods in the Helchino Magic Tower were spread to all the dragons. Nowadays, things like "points" were not only available to the members of the "sanatorium". At the same time, the mechanism was opened to the public, and other dragons could also use their own papers to exchange for points.
This situation was based on the fact that most of the Dragons who had been "mentally attacked" had been "purified." Now, Quio and Morales were no longer locked up in solitary confinement on the 19th floor. When Edith brought Natha to the canteen, she saw the former Red Dragon Lord reading the newspaper while drinking soup.
After greeting him politely, Natha sat down to eat and rubbed her temples. She felt that everything that happened here was even more surreal than her being cured. However, when the waiter brought her the food she had just ordered, a Dragon next to her took his own plate and sat across her.
Natha raised her head in surprise and found that the Dragons in front of her had a gentle aura and a calm expression. She first smiled at Edith, then said, "You seem to be recovering well?"
"This is Lord Morales."
