The Villainess Enjoys Her Seventh Life as a Free-Spirited Bride (hostage) in a Former Enemy Country

After finishing training as a knight cadet, Rishe hurriedly returned to the detached palace this day as well, bathed in hot water and then got dressed for the day.

Two knight guards were heading to the guest room in the main castle.

When a knight knocked, an answer came from inside. After thanking the knight, Kamil, for opening the door, Rishe called out to the other knight.

“I’m sorry, can Volker-san stay guard in the corridor and only Kamil will accompany me to the guest room? It would be rude to have several knight guards to meet with our guests…”

“I understand, Rishe-sama.”

The knight nodded and stood back to the side of the door. Rishe turned and smiled at Kamil as if to say, “Please take care of me”.

“Excuse me, Your Highness Kyle.”

“Rishe-sama.”

Kyle stood up and bowed to Rishe at the perfect angle. His seriousness was apparent in his every single gesture.

Yesterday, Kyle had a discussion with the scholars in the imperial capital all day and seemed to have had dinner with them. She hasn’t seen his face since the night before last.

She was worried about his health, but judging by the way Kyle looked up, she could tell.

“I’m relieved that the medication I gave you seems to be working.”

“Can you tell my physical condition at a glance?”

“Your exact condition must be examined in detail, but I can roughly identify some of the more obvious symptoms. Your morning and evening coughs may have subsided a bit, making it easier for you to sleep.”

“…You even have a goddess-like eye for detail.”

Uh….

The reverent curtsy made Rishe feel indescribable.

She knew it was customary and socially acceptable in Koyor to never miss a compliment to a woman.

However, it was discomfitting to hear this from someone who in her past life scolded her to “put away the books in your room” or “go to bed early at night even if you are busy with your research”.

Rishe feigned a gentle smile, and sat on the sofa. Kyle also sat down while she put the vial she brought with her on the table.

“Your Highness, take these pills from today as well.”

“Okay. Is this one different from the previous one in liquid form?”

“That medication is absorbed quickly and has immediate effects, but the effects are weak, and its duration is short. However, you need enough sleep and regain your strength before you can take this medication…”

[“Potent medicine is a poison to a body that is too weak,” her teacher taught her.]

Kyle’s illness, which was more likely to manifest itself in the respiratory tract, was actually largely related to a weakening of the stomach, so her intention was to get him to sleep well and restore his appetite.

“This pill is made from a powdered mixture of crushed herbs mixed with honey.”

Sugar-coated milk tea-colored pills filled the vial.

“Your Highness sometimes feels out of breath, right? Your lungs are exhausted, but your heart beats must also be affected. In addition, you strain to close your lips, which tend to turn pale. The reason for this is that you are unconsciously clenching your teeth.”

“That…I didn’t mean to do that, but is that so?”

“It’s normal for the mouth to have a gap of a few millimeters between the upper and lower teeth, with no contact between them. In Your Highness’ case, do your upper and lower teeth touch each other even when you think you are relaxing?”

Kyle’s eyes widened in surprise when she said that.

“I’ve watched Your Highness’ appearance at the evening party, and you sometimes held your forehead. You have headaches, don’t you? But in your case, it’s because of the tension in your body, so headache medication doesn’t help.”

“…Did you diagnose that just from every move I made?”

“I’m still learning. My teacher from Renfa can diagnose a lot more at a glance.”

“An apothecary named Hakurei, who treated me in the past, had the same great eye. Many people called him the best apothecary in the world. I never expected that there’s someone else with that kind of knowledge…

No. That Hakurei-sama is exactly my teacher…

She couldn’t say outright, so she muttered deep within. Rishe regained her composure and put the vial of pills in front of Kyle.

“Take it 30 minutes before you eat. The effects will be slow and long-lasting, so you’ll have more time to relax during the day.”

“Uhm…Thank you very much.”

“However, the taste is as bad as liquid medicine.”

“…”

It really tasted awful.

The sweetness of the honey that has been added to the already tasteless herbs creates an unnecessary cacophony.

But Kyle nodded with a look that couldn’t be painted.

“If it can get this body get a little bit of decent action, that much is inevitable.”

“Your Highness…”

Now, it was time to get to today’s business.

Rishe put hands on her knees and softly spoke.

“I overheard you talking with His Highness Arnold at the other night’s party.”

“!”
