At her words, the duke shook his head with a suddenly serious face.
“No, the Viscount of Minolta is one of the falcon families of Countess Greta. It’s best for us to stay quiet and leave. Let’s find a doctor first.”
“A doctor?”
“That arm. I gave it first aid, but I think you should show it to a doctor.”
“Oh, it’s fine. You treated it so well that it doesn’t really…”
However, she couldn’t continue speaking because of the duke’s increasingly darkening face.
‘It will heal on its own anyway.’
Lina was saying things she couldn’t quite bring herself to say out loud. The duke glanced around for a moment and approached a man selling fruit at a nearby shop.
“I just want to ask one thing.”
A man who was busy starting his business turned his head with an annoyed face. The man’s eyes quickly scanned the duke’s appearance.
Though it was dirty, the fine material of his clothing showed his high status.
Soon, the merchant changed his expression and answered kindly.
“Yes! What can I do for you?”
“Where is the oldest clinic in this village?”
‘The oldest?’
Lina looked puzzled at the duke, who emphasized the oldest clinic.
“Hm. If you’re talking about the oldest, it’s Martin’s clinic, but… it’s a bit far. There’s Gemma’s clinic nearby, and the young gentleman’s skills are—”
“Show me where Martin’s clinic is.”
Saying so, he handed the man a nickel. The unexpected windfall made the man excitedly and politely direct them to Martin’s clinic.
She couldn’t understand why the duke would go so far, ignoring the closer place, but she just let it be.
‘Well, if it’s older, the skill must be better.’
Thinking that he was quite delicate in this aspect, she quietly followed him. But then.
“It’s much farther than I thought……? Haha.”
The place where the clinic was located was too far.
They had been walking for 20 minutes when they heard from other villagers that they still had to walk another 30 minutes.
“Isn’t it better to go somewhere nearby since it’s not a very difficult treatment?”
“No. We must go to the oldest place.”
Perhaps he had been treated by Martin’s clinic before.
Act
Lina sighed and entered the place with tired steps, and a younglooking man greeted them.
“Hello. I’m here to see the doctor, where is he?”
“Ah, I am the doctor. What brings you here?”
Duke Valige, who was briefly assessing the situation, mumbled a question.
“…Younger than expected. I heard this was the oldest place.”
“Yes. My grandfather has been holding this place since his time, and recently I took over to treat the patients.”
Lina glanced at Valige, who was wearing a slightly nervous expression.
‘Why is he acting like that? Doesn’t he trust him?’
Being young doesn’t mean that his skill is poor. She lightly thought the Duke was a bit oldfashioned in this regard.
“What brings you discomfort?”
“Ah, I have…”
“My arm is injured, and it seems like there’s a crack in the bone.”
The Duke spoke, interrupting Lina, who was about to show her arm. She had nothing to say, so she gave an awkward smile.
“I see. Then the patient should come this way.”
“Yes.”
“I’ll take a look at your clothes for a moment.”
As the doctor lowered her clothes to look at Lina’s arm, he felt a sharp gaze from above and stopped his examination, looking up.
He met Valige’s eyes, who was looking down with a very displeased expression.
Martin unwittingly swallowed.
“Um, would the guardian please wait outside? Come in after the treatment is…”
“Why? Is there a reason I shouldn’t be here?”
“Eh? No, there’s not exactly a reason, but…”
The Duke’s questioning attitude, as if interrogating a criminal, made Doctor Martin stammer in response.
“Du, hmm. Duke Valige. Just wait outside…”
“Why do you keep telling me to stay outside?”
“Then stay a little away.”
“No.”
Valige refused her words firmly and asked the doctor.
“Do you have any objection to me standing here, in this spot?”
“No, no! Not at all! Haha…”
The scared doctor replied with a hand wave. Sweat beads formed heavily on his forehead.
Lina looked at him, sensing the suddenly strange atmosphere.
‘Why is he acting like that?’
The Duke, throwing a tantrum like a child, was unfamiliar.
Martin wiped the sweat that had dripped down and started to examine Lina’s arm again.
But somehow, the more he looked at the wound, the angrier the man’s eyes seemed to get. Finally, the doctor who couldn’t bear it asked cautiously.
“Um, did I do something wrong…”
“…No. Continue.”
The answer was somewhat awkward, but what could be the problem if there was none?
Martin had only been a doctor for just 3 years, but he had never seen such an intimidating person before. It was a rare atmosphere to see in the village.
He swallowed and looked at the woman’s arm in front of him.
“Still. You’ve done a good emergency treatment. Just apply some herbs, rewrap the bandage, and you should be fine for daily life.”
“Yes. Thank you.”
The doctor prepared the herbs and applied the medicine to Lina’s arm and rewrapped the bandage. During this time, the Duke’s complexion grew darker and darker, and the doctor’s hands began to shake a little.

“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
