As soon as Knight Sadie opened his eyes, he saw bright sunshine and a beautiful woman with blonde hair and green eyes.
"Hmm..."
Sitting by the hospital bed, Li Aili saw a white bubble with an angelic halo emerge from the top of his head:
Is this heaven?
"Damn it! If I had known the girls in heaven were this beautiful, I should have sacrificed myself a few years earlier!"
Li Aili: "..."
Sorry, young man, but this is Constantinople, and unfortunately, you are still alive.
Justin the Knight, who woke up ten minutes earlier and had made similar remarks before: "..."
The two were lying on a makeshift bed, their bodies wrapped in bandages, looking like two 'mummies'.
To prevent them from moving around and causing further damage to the fractured areas, their limbs were slinged with bandages to the bed frame with the bed canopy hanging from it.
Knight Justin is currently working with the Elf King's brother to complete his 'Pill Experience Investigation Report'.
"So, you don't have cognitive impairment right now, is that right?"
Justin struggled to squeeze out a sound, "What... is cognitive...impedement?"
Leongor patiently explained, "Cognitive impairment, it's cognitive impairment. It means, do you think of yourself as a mouse, or a giant, or some other species? In short, do you think of yourself as not being human?"
Justin: "..." His pupils dilated in shock.
What exactly did he eat?
"...Are there any other humans in this world capable of having such thoughts?" Sadie asked in shock upon hearing this conversation.
The Elf King's brother smiled gently, turned to him and said, "Originally there wasn't, but after taking my pill... well, if we think about it carefully, there might be."
Justin and Sadie: "…………"
"I...I haven't experienced this yet," Justin was terrified. "Then...will this problem occur in the future?"
The Elf King tilted his head slightly. "Strictly speaking, nothing is absolute."
Li Aili said speechlessly, "Can you please stop threatening the patients? Did you come here to see a doctor, or to intimidate them and worsen their condition?"
The Elf King's brother readily changed his tune, saying, "The possibility is extremely low."
Justin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If he later comes to believe he's a mule and holds that belief for the rest of his life, he might as well just die in battle...
"So, do you feel the urge to pick a fight with your nemesis right now?"
Justin was bewildered. "Looking for... looking for what?"
Leongor maintained a polite smile and explained, "Exactly, if you were a mouse, wouldn't you feel the urge to fight a cat right now?"
Justin was completely stunned. "...Not at the moment."
Leongor: "Ah, that's good. You can be discharged from the hospital once you've recovered from your injury."
He used the new words he learned from Li Aili with remarkable fluency.
The knight, who had been stationed in the countryside for a long time, could not understand the language of the important people in the castle, but that did not stop him from worrying about his future health.
"Ah! Wait, Mr. Elf, I have something to ask you..."
"Are all these 'black pills' so badly affected?" Justin struggled to turn his eyes, looking at his tattered state.
Leongor quickly waved his hand, "No, no, no, my pills have no physical side effects."
Justin squinted at him.
"Who are you kidding? Not a single bone in my body is intact!"
Leongor continued to explain, "That's right, almost all of your injuries came from your companions."
"At the time, you were in a berserk state due to the effects of the elixir. So, in the process of subduing you, your colleagues may not have controlled their strength well, which is why they accidentally caused you to end up like this."
Justin: "..."
Sadie: "..."
Leongor said, "To be on the safe side, my advice is that you take the healing potion three days later."
"Because no one has ever tried taking an alchemical potion immediately after using a pill... In short, it's better to be safe than sorry."
The two knights: "..."
After saying that, Wang Di changed the subject, stroking his chin with great interest, and said, "Of course, if you want to try it now, I'd be happy to. After all, I'm very curious too..."
Justin and Sadie interrupted in unison, "No need! We'll drink the healing potion in three days! Thank you! Goodbye!!"
Li Aili left the room that was temporarily serving as a hospital ward with mixed feelings.
She felt that if things continued like this, her younger brother would eventually become a pill fanatic... Should she have another heart-to-heart talk with him?
"Conrad, do I need to have another heart-to-heart talk with Leongor?"
Conrad tried to maintain a professional smile. "...What would you like to discuss with Mr. Leongor, Madam?"
Li Aili: "Ah, that's right. I'm afraid he'll go astray, so I was thinking, should we take precautions in advance?"
Conrad gasped. "Please don't do that."
Li Aili: "..."
The sound of clashing hooves came from outside the window. Li Aili ran to the window in the corridor and looked out. Sure enough, it was the Duke leading his knights back to Constantinople.
Everyone dismounted and hurried into the castle.
Li Aili hurriedly lifted her skirt and entered the study. The high knights immediately asked her questions:
"Madam, how are Sadie and Justin?"
Li Aili said, "They should have been fine originally, but they broke quite a few bones in the process of being subdued by you."
Lance and the others looked away guiltily.
[I think the pill that the elf made is much better than the giantification potion that you made, Madam...]
