Chapter.6 Doctor’s Evening

There is a unique clinic in Gray City.

What made the clinic unique was that the doctors were not human.

The doctor at the clinic is an elf.

Elena, an elf, came to the human world with the intention of practicing medicine and opened a clinic in Great City.

“Laine, your burns are severe?”

Elena, the elf doctor from Gray City, distorted her expression. This would have been accompanied by considerable pain.

Elena was heartbroken by the severe burn marks.

“Iknow, right. “I made a little mistake.”

Reine spoke calmly, but her facial expression was very distorted, as if she was enduring pain.

“Don’t worry. “I will make you better.”

Elena immediately used healing magic, Heal, on the back of Reine’s hand. With the bright light, the burned area gradually recovers.

“In the case of trauma, unless it is a large wound, it can be treated with the healing magic ‘Heal’. So don’t worry. “There probably won’t be any scars.”

Internal injuries and major injuries cannot be treated with ‘heels’. At that time, you can practice medicine. Elena was skilled not only in healing magic but also in medicine.

But she recently felt skeptical about the work itself. Wouldn’t it be better to just go back to the elf village? I was thinking about that.

The reason is because of human attitudes.

Treatment itself is rewarding. However, few of the men who came to the clinic wanted to receive treatment.

Most men are just thirsty for courtship.

It was disappointing to her that people were more interested in herself as a biological female than in herself as a doctor.

That doesn’t happen among elves. Elena found it strange that people were only obsessed with her own face.

With the thought of helping humans, I had a hard time leaving the forest and settling down.

“thank you! I think Elena’s magic is really amazing. But my face doesn’t look good these days. “What’s going on?”

Raine looked at the back of her recovered hand and opened her mouth.

“Yes, I haven’t been able to sleep well these days… .”

“Sleep? “Do you have any concerns?”

Reine held onto Elena’s hands with her characteristic mischievousness. He looks like he’s willing to give advice on anything.

“no.”

“What about meals?”

“With vegetables I bought at your market.”

Elena has not been able to eat meat since she was born.

There is a popular belief that elves do not eat meat, but that does not mean they cannot eat it. I just don’t enjoy it.

However, in her case, she was born unable to properly digest meat. Would you say it has the digestive system of a herbivore?

“Because I always eat raw vegetables like that, I actually feel less energetic.”

Reine shook her head and suddenly clapped her hands. Because a good idea occurred to me.

“It’s a little far, but would you like to go to the restaurant on the hill after the treatment?”

“At a restaurant?”

“You can make delicious dishes with just vegetables. “If you are El.”

“yes?”

Human restaurants were very obvious. It’s not that there are no vegetable dishes, but the focus is on salads. So I didn’t feel any difference from eating raw vegetables.

However, Elena had no particular complaints about the taste of the food. The problem is the concentration of humans.

“still… .”

Since coming to this city, I haven’t been able to make a single close friend. I realized that it is quite difficult to become close to humans. I thought I couldn’t understand why many elves in their homeland, the elven forest, were angry at humans.

Men gather together and women look at themselves with jealous eyes.

Elena couldn’t figure out why she was looking at her like that. Perhaps because of that jealousy, almost no women came to the clinic.

In the meantime, the only person who treated me well was Laine. Elena thought he was a good person. If all humans were like Layne, we wouldn’t have to worry about this. This is Elena’s thoughts. Because she didn’t really understand human nature.

“It’s been quite a while since I’ve had something delicious. Since Laine recommended it, I will definitely go.”

“is it so. I don’t know what your worries are, but eat something delicious and cheer up. “Elena.”

Elena nodded quietly,

but had no expectations that there would be anything special in the first place. After all, it is a restaurant run by humans. He thought that there would be no food that would suit his taste as an elf. However, I couldn’t refuse the recommendation since it was Reine who thought of me.

With that thought in mind, Elena left the city and climbed the hill after the clinic hours were over.

As I was walking, thinking that the sunset as the sun was setting was pretty everywhere, whether in the human city or the elf forest, a cute restaurant near the top of the hill caught my eye.

When Elena saw that, she thought it was a very strange position.

“Still, the view is nice.”

Looking at the scenery made Elena miss the nature of her hometown. The noble beliefs were disappearing little by little. The idea of closing the clinic and returning to my hometown becomes a little more certain.

“hello.”

When I entered the store, there were no other customers. The owner was also nowhere to be seen. is not it? Is the woman in front of me the owner? Elena thought that way. Because it was stretched out on the table. I don’t think there will be any guests lined up at the table for a meal.

Of course, the person Elena referred to as the woman in front of her was, of course, Lulin.

Lulin was sprawled out on the table as always. However, since he was not asleep, he slowly rubbed his eyes and opened his mouth.

“Huh? “Are you a guest?”

“Yes, I came here because Layne recommended it… Are you the owner? ?”

“no! But you… “Aren’t you an elf?”

Lulin stood up on the table as if in amazement, then jumped and came down to the floor. And then he got right in front of Elena. Elena was slightly embarrassed and took a step back.

“yes yes?”

“This is my first time seeing a female elf. In the past, there was a male elf among El’s companions. “You are a female elf!”

“That is correct. “A male elf?”

“Hmm, all elves are beautiful. How dare you? dare!”

Elena tilted her head. The woman in front of me had a beauty that was not inferior to that of the elves. To be honest, Elena was by far the first human to see such a beautiful woman.

But unlike Elena, no man approaches Rurin. Although she does not emit her piers on purpose, her body is always surrounded by tiny, impenetrable piers, so even when human men see Rurin’s beauty, they do not think much of her intimidation. So, it was correct to say that there was no human who could handle Rurin. Except El.

“You are truly beautiful… ?”

“Is this body beautiful? Hehehe. But I’m not human? Doesn’t the elf know that too? “That useless male elf who was El’s companion wasn’t even a fuss!”

Elena, who heard those words, was startled and looked straight into Lulin’s eyes. Elena, who looked deeply into those eyes, was scared and fell down on the spot.

“O great being… ! “Please forgive my rudeness!”

Elena began to tremble. It’s a natural reaction. A dragon is the highest-ranking creature that one cannot even dare to speak of.

Elena couldn’t understand why there was a dragon in a place like this. Did I come out for entertainment? Well, it doesn’t make sense if it’s entertainment.

Elves are born with an aesthetic sense that can detect lies. It was because of that ability that Lulin asked Elena why she didn’t even know about it. If an elf makes up his mind and looks deeply into the other person’s eyes, he can see through the essence of things.

“I don’t like humans, and I don’t particularly like elves. And I don’t like dragons that bother me. So I hate everyone.”

Looking down at the trembling elf, Lurin told a strange story. It was no different from saying that they hated elves, so Elena should have felt serious fear.

“I know a little bit about humans too… .”

So I have no choice but to just agree. That’s the best Elena can do.

But I soon realized that it was not the time to agree.

Dragons that hate humans brought great disaster to the continent. Historically speaking.

There are many dragons that have destroyed kingdoms, ruined empires, and caused great danger. Elena had to feel tremendous fear because the way Lulin spoke created just such a feeling of fear.

If that happens, even the forest of the elves, their hometown, will suffer damage.

As a peace-loving elf, Elena mustered up all her courage and dared to ask, believing that such a thing should not happen.

“But great being, if you don’t like humans, why are you in a place like this?” “May I ask if you are having fun?”

Lulin shook his head violently at Elena.

“I hate humans. But it was wrong to say that everyone disliked it. Hi-Hi. L is different. Since I have L, anything else I dislike doesn’t matter. Do you understand? By the way, elf. Did you know of my existence? “L said I shouldn’t reveal my identity.”

“That’s it! no! The elves have never once interfered with the games of a great being! I know full well what disaster it would bring if I did that… . I will never reveal it, great being… Now have mercy… .”

Elena was surprised and lowered her head.

“I didn’t say I was going to kill him. Well then, elf. Be my subordinate. Because I don’t have any subordinates. Then I’ll save you! “I praised this body, so it’s appreciated!”

But at that very moment, Lulin was grabbed by the back of his head.

“What the hell!”

“What is it? “Why are you scaring the guests?”

The person who caught the back of my head was El, who appeared from the basement. El grabbed Lulin’s back and pulled her into his arms.

The back of Lurin’s head touches El’s chest.

El had no idea what was going on right now. However, Lurin got scared and started acting like a fool.

“Uh, when did you come? I do not know. Because this elf fell down first!”

Of course, it is true that Elena fell down first. Although that is true.

“Elf?”

“Yes!”

Lulin waved his hand and laughed. Elle, who only looked at Elena after hearing that she was an elf, nodded when she saw the ears. If it were an elf, its identity would have already been discovered.

“Don’t be funny, take turns. Go down and dig the ground. I hope you realize that you are having a hard time building your own house right now. “Get down quickly!”

“Is it my turn already? It seems like you went down not long ago… .”

When El glared, Lurin dropped her shoulders and slowly walked to the back of the restaurant, muttering.

“Ugh, I understand. “Can’t you just do it?”

Elena slowly raised her head and looked at the scene. The man in front of me is not a dragon. No matter how you look at it, he was human. There was no trace of Polymorph at all.

How can humans treat dragons like that? Faced with a reality she could not understand, Elena fell into confusion.

Grabbing the back of a dragon and cutting it off was a huge culture shock for Elena, but seeing a dragon listen to a human’s words and move on does not only feel like a culture shock, but also brings about the destruction of one’s values.
