Chapter 393
"Will the ancient ointment allow no pain?"
"... At most... only a pinch she will feel."
’No! That’s a lie!’
"..... Do it fast. Not more than five minutes." — Holding me stronger as I shook my head stronger to his order I felt more like fainting. Even as he told the doctor to do it quickly.
"?! Yet your Highness-!"
"Don’t say a word, Aindreas. Don’t you see she’s scared? Do it as fast as possible or only ten stitches won’t do for your broken neck." — I heard him growl at Talmhach, which even though gruesome didn’t make it to be of my concern at the time.
"... I understand, I am to do it the fastest and cleanest I am able to." — The Doctor clearly nervous in his voice said. Allowing a calmer tone from the crown prince, who kept me from looking at the tools he was taking out. — "Yet do aid me with the Lady, your Highness."
"... Alright. Do it quick Talmhach... Please, I ask it of you." — Nicely this time, he told the doctor. And as he did, the stroke he gave to my cheek’s side made me flinch, opening my eyes to listen properly to what followed. — "My lady, I promise it will be brief... I am to keep you just like this from the sight... please remain calm that it will not hurt as you believe it will..."
’... Nn... hngh~! What do you know?! I bet you’ve never received stitches!!’ — Completely unfair, I whined, gripping his sleeves while I hid my face in him, unwilling to look him in the eyes even as his hand tried to make us cross sights. — ’D*mn brute! I’m a delicate girl!! Stoopid kinky Crown!!! Let go!!’
