Re:START/If {Book 1.0}
Chapter 16: This is only Satisfaction (Part 02)
Inside Nanra's room, Siska and the other children were now. The room had only a candle placed on the table as a light and the cold from outside could still enter easily. On top of the bed, a white-haired girl was lying limp from a high fever.
It was obvious that he was in a lot of pain, his consciousness even seemed to be able to float quickly. Siska stood near where she was lying, while the other children behind her looked anxiously at the girl lying with fever.
Opening the few strands of blankets covering Nanra's body, Siska saw a great deal of the child's sweat coming out to the point that his clothes were wet and sticky with skin. The nun's face looked worried.
He supported the body of the child whose consciousness was very weak, then drank the Potion of Odo to him. Nanra drank it slowly, some of it dripping down onto the clothes and leaving a green stain.
Drinking the potion out, Nanra again laid Siska without being covered by a blanket back. Knowing that it was not good to leave her sweating so much like that, the blonde nun was about to go to the kitchen to fetch hot water and a rag to wipe the boy's body, which she had been wearing, as well as a new blanket replace the already sticky due to sweat. The five children immediately approached Nanra as Siska left. But before the blond woman came out of the room, Nanra got up and called out to her.
“Kakak ..” His voice was limp, but it was very surprising considering that he had a high fever for a while and his consciousness had not returned. Siska turned her head, looking at the child sitting on the bed with a face of disbelief. Nanra looked very healthy, even her flushed face was fine and her breathing was no longer panting.
“Nanra ..?” Without saying anything more, the blonde haired woman immediately hugged the child with relief. The other children look happy because Nanra is healed, they embrace Nanra with the nuns who took care of them since childhood.
Letting go of the hug and holding both sides of Nanra's shoulders, Sisik asked, “Have you really been well? Is there still anything bad or sick?” Siska's face looks still anxious, the Potion effect given by Odo is greater than expected.
“Su-Already, kok .... Already have ...” Nanra also looked confused. Just a moment ago he had indeed a high fever, but after drinking the potion, he immediately recovered as if the fever was just an illusion.
“Great! The cure really works!” said Nesta with excitement.
“A-What is Potion as fast as this works ...? If it's not wrong when I get sick first ..” Daniel looks distrustful of what happened and compares a little bit when he was sick in the winter last year.
“Manjur .... The landlord's son is great to make like this,” said Fifkaf. The child who looked always calm was just giving a flat reaction.
“Mila, look! Thanks to the medicine Kak Nanra immediately healed,” said Erial while looking happily at his twin.
“Iya, Erial .... That witch sister is really great. Are we later if big can make such a drug, yes?” mila said with a flat expression. Rather than its twin, it tends to have a calm nature.
“Of course! Should, dong!” answer Erial.
Hearing their words, Nanra was confused, especially about the medicine that had healed her. Staring at Siska, the boy asked, “Kak ..., did you buy that expensive medicine again? Not now the mistress of this orphanage ..” Nanra seemed to feel guilty.
He knows that now is not the time to spend money to buy high-priced drugs because to eat alone is very mepet and can only survive with a fairly limited supply.
“Quiet only ...” Siska stroked the boy's head, then said, “Potion was a gift from the black-haired boy who saved your life .... Looks like you owe the kid a second time..”.
“Don't you, the remedy was the granting of Od⸻anak the Landlord?” nanra asked in panic. In his mind, he did not like nobles or anything like that, but knowing that the one who had helped him the second time was a noble child, his feelings began to mix.
When Nanra finds out that Odo is the son of Marquess Luke, she realizes that she has been tricked and hopes to never see him again. But now it was different, he wanted to meet in person and ask her.
“Kak ..., now where is he? Odo now where?” ask Nanra. He looked at Siska with anxiety.
“Calm down, don't move much. You still need to rest .... If Young Master, he has come home ..”
Nanra lowered her head, disappointed that she could not meet and asked why the child was always helping her. “So yes ...,” said Nanra limply.
“If you want to meet him, I think he will also come again at the end of this winter ..., next year ..”.
Hearing that, Nanra again raised her head and asked, “Eh? Why?”
“Ya ..., actually ...”
But, uh, at the same time in Nanra's heart still stored a sense of dislike considering the death of both parents occurred because of the interests of Landlords who allocate funds for the first Astral World expedition that resulted in decreased territorial guard so that both of his masters were slaughtered by bandits.

Srerets!
A flash of lightning was glimpsed in the courtyard beside the Luke Family residence. From the place, seen a black-haired child who had just landed covered with electric radiant blue, the child is Odo.
After using the throwing magic continuously from the Coastal City and using the thunderstorm-heavy magic to erode the friction with the air, He finally returned to his residence without taking a long time.
As soon as he landed, the boy looked to the right and left making sure no one saw him coming. “Hem, safe. If the servants go home, this place becomes very quiet, yes?” think Odo. The boy immediately entered through the side door of the Mansion and immediately walked quickly in the hallway leading to his room.
While at the intersection of the hallway, he passed Xua Lin, one of the servants who bear the name Shieal. The woman wearing a winter maid uniform that looked thick enough was a Demi-human with brown hairy bear elements, had a bear's round ears on her head and her cornea was pitch black.
“Young Master ...” He immediately lowered his head when he met Odo. Seeing that he had met Xua Lin instead of Julia, Odo was relieved for a moment.
“Kak Lin ..., still preparing?” ask Odo.
“Ya ..., for supplies and fabric equipment is ready. But ..., it seems that for Drake there will likely be obstacles because it is winter and is entering an unproductive period.”
“Hmm, even Drake also understands that winter is best to sleep yes ...” Odo smiled slightly. Seeing the prospective heir of the family he served made such a joke, Xua Lin looked puzzled. At one time Odo was not such a child, who he knew from his master was only from the news of other servants and never spoke directly as now.
Seeing Xua Lin speechless with a puzzled look, Odo asked, “What's up, Brother?”
“Not ..., it's just that Young Master is a little different in taste ...”
“Different? What?”
“Kata Julia ..., The master is often defiant and arbitrary, even likes to troublemaking continue ...”
Hearing that, Odo's eyebrows twitched and understood the reason other servants often gave strange looks when they saw him. “Damn it, it turns out the cat ..” thought Odo. Taking a light breath and looking at Xua Lin kindly, Odo said, “I think it's just a mess Julia said .... I often get rid of it, anyway ...”
“Eh ..?” Xua Lin looked confused.
“Yes, Brother Lin knows too, doesn't he? The nature of Julia's sister is often festive on her own. It feels exciting to try it ..”
Hearing that, Xua Lin seemed to understand a little why the moment Julia spoke of Odo always sounded like a complaint. “O-Oh .., it turns out so,” he said.
“Sorry, Brother Lin. I went back to the room first, yes ..” Odo again stepped foot and took the route of the passage where Xua Lin had come. Hearing that, the tanned-haired maid bowed her body respectfully to Odo.
As he walked past the Demi-human servant, Odo glanced at him sharply and observed the woman slightly taller than him. Walking away, Odo glanced back and saw him turn around and leave.
In Odo's mind, the air of Xua Lin was very different from Julia and Fiola despite being fellow Demi-humans. From that, the black-haired boy began to rethink Siska's previous words.
There was a creature with a special background among the servants who bore the name Shieal, and the two were indeed Julia and Fiola. The background Odo himself does not know, from the documents in the archive room there is little data concerning both Demi-humans who became the confidants of Mavis and Dart.
“Yah .., I know that Julia and Fiola have a very powerful Mana capacity .... Moreover, perhaps only the data about Ms. Julia that was said to be her was once a fall from a Momentary Stream in the Empire .... To Mbak Fiola .., he ...”
