A week later.
Ars' body has fully recovered.
"This may be the worst experience so far."
After 100 years of training like the torment of hell, he had a high pain tolerance. However, mutilating his body into many pieces had reminded him of the pain he had forgotten.
"Rin, there's something I need to take care of, for a while my training is delayed."
Before leaving, Ars yells at Rin, who is standing still motionlessly on the hill, and gives no response.
"Then I'm gone."
Already accustomed to Rin's indifference, Ars leaves the remote island.
On top of the hill, Rin sees Ars' figure crossing the sea surface and his figure is no longer visible.
"He visits human settlements very often, I don't understand what draws him from humans."
...
In just a few minutes, Ars arrived in Mathias City.
Walking on the street, he did not find the lively atmosphere like before.
The streets were very quiet without pedestrians, the steam cars that used to fill the highway were now out of sight.
"It's no different than a dead city."
Ars could feel the gazes of the people peering behind the windows of the house.
Since the Night Fever outbreak hit the world, every stranger who visits a new place will be wary of the community, for fear that the person carries the virus.
And sure enough, not long after Ars arrived, some people wearing thick clothes and bird beak-shaped masks came to him.
"Sir, why don't you wear a mask! It's endangering you and the people around you."
One of the people in the group came forward and warned loudly.
"Who are you?"
Ars is not angry because of the other party's reminder, although he is no longer human, it does not mean he is hostile to them. As long as humans were friendly and kind to him, he would also treat them politely.
"I'm Doctor Arnold, I'm in charge of treating people who have Night Fever, but I can't cure anyone, I failed as a doctor."
Richard regretted his helplessness in the face of the plague.
"Oh, what a coincidence that I was looking for a doctor, unexpectedly found one just a few minutes walk away. Luck is not so bad."
"Do you have a Night Fever?"
Hearing the other party come looking for a doctor, Richard and his entourage took a few steps back, they were worried about getting infected.
"No, I'm looking for a doctor because I want to buy a scale."
"Huh?"
Richard thought he was hallucinating from exhaustion.
A young man goes for a walk without wearing a mask just to buy scales from a doctor?
What the fuck!
"Quick wear this mask before you get infected with Night Fever."
Richard took the bird beak-shaped mask, which was under one of the nurses and gave it to the young man in front of him.
"No, thank you. It's not necessary, I need more scales, do you have?"
Ars pushed the mask and asked.
"Don't joke in a precarious situation like this, hurry up and use this before it's too late!"
Richard kept forcing her to wear a mask, not wanting the healthy young man in front of her to be infected with Night Fever just for silly reasons.
"You're a good doctor, I like your attitude. In return for your kindness, I will grant you one wish."
Ars doesn't hate Richard's stubbornness.
"Omong empty! You think you're a god!" Richard was angry.
"Hmmm... You're not entirely wrong, ancient humans regarded Idaten as a god."
"Crazy, there must be something wrong with your head." Richard thought Ars was crazy, then said resentfully: "If you are really a god, heal all the Night Fever patients in this city, he said, I can't bear to see their suffering expressions knowing death will surely come at night."
"Doctor..."
The people behind him felt the same way, many health workers died while treating Night Fever patients, and somehow it was their turn.
"You sure you want to use your request to save others?" Ars asked to confirm.
"If you can do it, I'll believe you're really a god."
Somehow Richard said this to the young man whose name was not even known, perhaps he was just venting his frustration at failing to save the patient.
"Alright, to appreciate your selfless concern for others, I will grant your request."
Ars' actions and words only convince Richard and his entourage that he is a madman.
Ars does not care about the gaze of doubt, insults, cynicism, sneers, and other negative emotions of the people around him.
Do humans care about being stared at by ants?
In his hand appeared a white magic circle and exuded a holy aura, which made people want to kneel.
"[Cure Poison]."
Ars shot light from his hand into the air.
Light flew over the city, then exploded like fireworks and became a rain of light, which enveloped the entire City of Mathias.
"It's..."
Behind the mask, Richard's eyes widened to see a scene that science could not explain.
"Well, it's done. I have purified the poison throughout Mathias City, you can remove your mask, everything is fine."
The magic that Ars just used was Holy Magic, which was usually used by the High Priest (Arch-Priest) in the world [Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo!].
The Red Prison Academy not only stored destructive magic, but there were many other types of magic, and Holy Magic was one of them.
According to him, the virus works like a poison, both of which are equally damaging to the body. When a new Night Fever outbreak spreads in several countries, Ars has done several trials, he uses various Holy Magic spells, and finds the [Cure Poison] very effective at killing viruses and bacteria, in addition to detoxifying poison.
"This must be a trick, there's no way you can do that."
Richard was in disbelief, and was sure the young man in front of him was playing tricks.
"Doctor Richard!"
Suddenly a young man in glasses ran while holding a mask in his hand.
"Abel, why did you take off your mask!"
Seeing his disciple coming at him without wearing a mask, Richard became anxious, and scolded him.
Abel was his disciple and successor, if he died while dealing with the plague of Night Fever, Richard had prepared his successor.
Arriving in front of his teacher, Abel breathed heavily after running from the hospital here, taking a few breaths, he said excitedly.
"Doctor, we don't have to wear masks anymore. All the patients in the hospital who were infected with Night Fever suddenly recovered after the light just now!"
"What!"
Richard and his entourage were stunned to learn of this news.
It's too hard to believe.
"Is that all true, Abel? You didn't lie to me, did you?"
Holding his student's shoulders, Richard confirmed the truth of the news.
"I dare not make a joke about this, everything I say is true, the god has brought down the miracle in Mathias City!"
Abel spoke the same crying.
It was not tears of sadness as usual, but tears of happiness!
Watching the people die one by one before his eyes, and he could only watch. As a doctor, his conscience hurts.
Then, Richard turned around and saw the main performer of the miracle worker still standing before him, without hesitation he knelt down.
Not only him, the nurses accompanying him on patrol also did the same
"Eh, what are you doing?" Abel was confused at the actions of everyone.
Removing the mask on his face, Richard revealed the appearance of a middle-aged man in his 40s.
"Lord, thank you for your grace, everyone in Mathias City has been saved."
"Thank you, god." Shouted the nurses in unison.
"En, wake. I did it not to save man, but I was touched by your kindness to me. And don't call me a god, I'm not as omniscient and omnipotent as you all think."
Ars never considered himself a god. According to him, the Idaten are just a unique race that exists in this world, not a true god.
After everyone stood up, he reminded everyone of his purpose of coming here.
"Does your hospital have scales?"
"Yes, there are a lot of scales in the hospital, please take how much you want." Richard said with respect.
"Prince the way."
"Please follow me."
Ars followed Richard and his entourage to the hospital.
Along the way, they encountered many people on the street. They were the ones who had previously been infected with Night Fever and could only wait for death to come.
Once healed, they can't wait to go home and meet their loved ones.
Ars' relaxed actions have restored the vibrant atmosphere of Mathias City as it was.
