I’ll Be The Warrior’s Mother

Yelena moved the knife and fork that she had stopped.

Whatever the circumstances, the results were good enough for Yelena.

In the end, there would be no chances of seeing Incan anywhere in the future unless she visited the estate of Viscount Marezon.

She liked it.

“That’s great news.”

The movement of the knife cutting the food on the plate was cheerful.

‘If I run into Lula later, I’ll tell her.’

She was sure that Lula would be pleased.

Then, Kaywhin said, “Additionally, the letter also addressed the topic of compensation.”

“What is the compensation?”

“As a token of apology, he promised to supply free medicinal herbs to the duchy for the next 50 years.”

“That’s great, too.”

“However, based on the past incident, I’m going to change the place where we procure medical herbs.”

‘Oh, I see.’

Yelena nodded her head. It was an understandable decision.

‘But you will still accept the offer, right?’

Medical herbs were expensive and had endless uses.

When she met with Ben later, she’d definitely tell him to accept the herbs that the Marezon send for free.

As Yelena thought so, Kaywhin continued, “And…”

At the sight of Kaywhin hesitating for the first time, Yelena looked at him curiously.

“The medicine that Incan used.”

“Oh, that medicine. What’s wrong with it?”

Faint wrinkles formed between her eyes without Yelena realizing it.

The medicine that Incan tested on the maids.

It was a creepy and unpleasant medicine to recall.

“The ingredients used in the medicine haven’t been identified yet.”

“Really?”

Yelena blinked.

It had been quite a while since the Duke had entrusted the analysis of the medicine obtained from Incan to the specialists.

She even heard that every specialist was commissioned regardless of their field.

Pharmacists, wizards, and even alchemists.

“Didn’t Incan claim that he mixed it with beast blood?”

“That’s right.”

“Hmm…”

Beast’s blood.

It was still an unbelievable story.

What kind of beast’s blood in this world would allow a human being to grow on its own?

“I guess it can’t be helped. He must’ve used a very suspicious ingredient.”

They wouldn’t be able to make Incan talk now.

Incan continued to insist that the medicine’s ingredients were a beast’s blood despite the intense interrogation that left his whole body in tatters.

‘Looking at that, it’s right to think that he used a very suspicious ingredient.’

The instant it was discovered, he would be in a lot of trouble.

Truthfully, Yelena wanted to know the ingredients of the medicine because of Incan’s attitude.

She was curious, but she believed that it would be better if the ingredients of the medicine became evidence to send Incan away forever.

‘However, Viscount Marezon has already resolved that…’

After all, Incan was locked up in his estate and could not come out for the rest of his life.

Yelena’s last lingering attachment disappeared.

“I’ll let you know when we discover the ingredients of the medicine.”

“All right.”

The Incan-themed conversation was almost over.

Yelena focused on her meal for a while.

“Oh, have you tried eating this?”

“No, does it suit your taste?”

“Hmm. The head chef seems to have tried a new dish, but it’s so novel that I don’t know how to evaluate it…”

At the same time, Yelena was thinking about the timing.

Actually, she had something to say to her husband.

However, her previous opportunity was taken away by the letter from Viscount Marezon.

“Well, darling…”

Yelena decided it was the right time to speak and opened her mouth.

The maid, who was bringing the additional dishes to the table where the two sat, suddenly lost her footing.

“Argh!”

The dish spilled over Yelena’s shoulder.

Kaywhin quickly stretched out his arm.

The dish hit Kaywhin’s arm and fell to the floor.

“Are you all right?”

Yelena was dumbfounded.

It happened so quickly that it took a moment for her to grasp the situation.

“So-sorry…”

The maid, perhaps surprised by her mistake, couldn’t even apologize properly and stiffened.

Kaywhin sent out the maid first. At that moment, Yelena noticed that Kaywhin’s sleeve was in a mess.

“Oh my God, your shirt is…”

“I can just wash it.”

Kaywhin, who roughly wiped the traces off his sleeve with a wet towel, rolled up his sleeve.

Because he rolled up his sleeve, Kaywhin’s arm became exposed.

Yelena glanced at Kaywhin’s bare, firm forearm… It would have been better to be discrete, but she stared openly at it.

While Yelena was unable to control her gaze, Kaywhin asked, “Rather than that, Yelena, what were you trying to say?”

“Huh? Oh, right.”

Yelena cleared her throat and opened her mouth.

“Um, darling. Are you very busy lately? I was wondering if you could spare me a day.”
