In the main residence of the Earth Imperial Family.
In one of the rooms, Natsume was lying on a tatami mat. His face was flushed and he was having difficulty breathing. His face was covered in sweat and he looked weak and powerless.
Beside him, Rozen and the young man who came to call him were naturally present.
"Natsume is going to die."
Hearing this, even Rozen could not help but panic. He immediately rushed over and entered the room. He saw Natsume lying there in pain.
However, looking at Natsume in this state, Rozen did not even think. He turned around and threw a heavy punch at the young man in front of him.
Bam!
Amidst the sound of the punch, the young man was knocked to the ground.
"It hurts …!"
The young man covered his face and protested.
"You … What are you doing!? Qiu Guan! "
The young man protested indignantly.
Unfortunately …
"You still dare to ask why?"
Rozen squinted his eyes and looked down at the young man.
Upon closer inspection, the young man had an average appearance and he exuded an extremely mediocre aura. He looked like a wild child playing outside. Although he was not mischievous or eccentric, he was full of energy. It made people feel that he would run out to play at any time. He was simply a king of children.
This young man was the only son of the Earth Imperial Family's branch family and Natsume's sworn brother, Spring Tiger of the Earth Imperial Family.
Spring Tiger of the Earth Imperial Family.
Natsume of the Earth Imperial Family.
Qiu Guan of the Earth Imperial Family.
The three of them were the descendants of the current Earth Imperial Family. Therefore, they had always met and played together. Their relationship was quite good.
Of course, it was just that every time Spring Tiger came to the main family, he would pester Rozen to play with him out of boredom. Rozen was just annoyed and forced to play with him. Natsume was dragged into it by the two of them, and in the end, it became a situation where the three of them played together.
Compared to his elder brother, Spring Tiger, Natsume was more attached to Rozen.
As for the reason, it was probably because Spring Tiger would go crazy every time he played, completely ignoring the fact that Natsume was a girl. On the other hand, Rozen would put a lazy expression on his face from time to time to stop Spring Tiger's excessive playfulness, which made Natsume feel grateful.
It was the same this time.
Although it was not a joke, Rozen stopped Tiger of Spring's excessive speech as usual.
"What do you mean 'Natsume is going to die'?" Rozen said, "You were just sick, but you almost scared me to death."
He was right.
Natsume was sick.
As soon as he walked into the room and saw Natsume's condition, Rozen noticed her condition through Spirit Vision's Aura in Natsume's body.
Naturally, it had nothing to do with the word 'death'.
But Spring Tiger said that kind of thing to Rozen's face, which shocked Rozen. It would be difficult to get rid of the hatred in his heart if he didn't give him a punch.
In this regard, Spring Tiger could only try his best to refute.
"I … I clearly heard my dad say that being sick is a terrible thing. If you are not careful, you will die. Compared to this, the physical condition caused by curse is nothing!"
Speaking of this, it was necessary to mention Spring Tiger and Natsume's father.
Their father was a descendant of the Earth Imperial Gate branch family, and he used to serve as a Curse Search Officer in Yin-Yang Hall.
Curse Search Officer, the full name of the Curse Crime Search Officer, was a Yin-Yang Master directly under Yin-Yang Hall.
The so-called Yin-Yang Hall referred to an organization that followed the Yin-Yang Law, cultivated Spiritual Disasters, and monitored the curse users in the country.
Its hall was located near Akihabara. It was said that it was renamed from Yin-Yang Hut, which was once led by the Earth Imperial Gate family. Its main responsibility was to cultivate Spiritual Disasters, but it was also responsible for the investigation of curse crimes, and specialized in dealing with curse related incidents.
Spring Tiger and Natsume's father used to be a Curse Search Officer of Yin-Yang Hall. He was strong, and he was an elite who obtained the qualification of a Professional Yin-Yang Master.
Because curse was a dangerous and mysterious foreign thing for ordinary people, most people didn't have a good impression of Yin-Yang Masters. In addition, some people would use curse to commit crimes, so even if they learned curse, they were not allowed to use it in the outside world at will. Only those who obtained the qualification of a Professional Yin-Yang Master could get permission, just like the police who obtained a gun license. Otherwise, it would be illegal possession of firearms.
While Spring Tiger and Natsume's father obtained the qualification of a Professional Yin-Yang Master, he was also a powerful Curse Search Officer in the industry, and was quite respected.
However, their father had long lived in seclusion and became a Yin-Yang Doctor in this countryside, specializing in dealing with various physical abnormalities caused by curse.
In view of this, Spring Tiger would hear such words from his father, who was a Yin-Yang Doctor, right?
But Rozen still wanted to say it.
"If you die as soon as you get sick, then you wouldn't know how many times you have died by now." Rozen rolled his eyes and said, "Haven't you ever had a fever?"
For this question, Spring Tiger's answer was very straightforward.
"No." Spring Tiger said very straightforwardly, "I didn't know when I was a child, but after I became sensible, I have never been sick."
"… Is that so?" Rozen was speechless for a while, and then he looked at Spring Tiger with pity in his eyes.
"You … What are you doing?" Spring Tiger suddenly felt a little creeped out, and said with some anger, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"It's nothing." Rozen shook his head and said with emotion, "I just didn't expect that the thing about idiots not getting sick was actually true."
Hearing this, Spring Tiger was relieved.
"I see, idiots won't get sick … Wait, are you calling me an idiot?"
When Spring Tiger finally reacted, Rozen had already ignored him and came in front of Natsume.
"Qiu Guan …?"
Natsume seemed to have sensed someone approaching her, and she opened her eyes with some difficulty. She looked at Rozen with a pair of watery eyes, and her cheeks were also flushed. There was an indescribable sense of cuteness.
… Can a girl be this cute when she's sick?
Rozen thought about this, and then immediately squatted in front of Natsume.
"You're forcing yourself too much."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Rozen scolded him.
There was no other way.
The main reason why Natsume became like this was because the Spiritual Qi in her body was in a mess.
"It must be because she forced herself to use the curse and extracted too much Spiritual Qi, that's why she became like this, right?"
Rozen directly told him the reason why Natsume was sick.
After all, this matter had already been mentioned. Spiritual Qi was something closely related to one's life force, and once there was a problem, it was only natural that the body would be affected.
Moreover, Natsume had previously announced that she wanted to learn curse techniques, so Rozen could easily guess the reason why Natsume was sick.
"I'm … I'm sorry …"
Xia Mu immediately hung his head dejectedly.
"Alright, just pay more attention in the future." Rozen patted Natsume's head and said, "You just have a good rest from now on. Later, let your dad come over to take a look and guide the Spiritual Qi. You'll probably recover by tomorrow, understand?"
"I … I understand." Natsume quickly nodded.
Only then did Rozen smile satisfactorily and stood up.
"Then have a good rest, I'll go out first."
After saying that, Rozen dragged Spring Tiger, who was still in a daze, out of the room.
