So, Juna applied my makeup, and when she was finished, I looked in the mirror.

“Whoa...”

I looked completely normal. My previously worn-out face now stared back at me. With the help of makeup, I appeared to be my usual, healthy self.

Oh right, there is makeup that can make someone look like this too. If I remember correctly, it’s called...

“Oh, corpse makeup...” I began to say, but then—smack! “Ow, that hurts.”

“Don’t jinx yourself like that,” Naden said, crossing her arms as she administered a tail slap.

“Could you go a little easier on me? I’m sick here,” I said.

“Hmph! You had it coming,” Yuriga exclaimed with exasperation. She certainly had a sharp tongue.

“Your Majesty, I’ve brought it,” Aisha announced.

As we spoke, Aisha entered with the broadcast jewel, placing it carefully at the foot of the bed. We were now ready to begin the broadcast.

“Okay... If you would, sire.” Ichiha gave the signal, and I started speaking.

Around the same time, crowds had gathered around the fountain plazas in cities throughout the Kingdom of Friedonia. They had been summoned there in anticipation of a broadcast from the castle. However, unlike usual, the people’s faces were marked with concern.

“What do you think they’ll announce?” one person asked.

“You don’t think his condition has taken a turn for the worse, do you?” another replied.

“Don’t say ominous things like that!” a third person interjected.

The grim expressions on their faces were understandable. Many had witnessed Souma being slashed by Fuuga during the broadcast and saw him fall to one knee, drenched in his own blood. Although he had announced reconciliation afterwards, there had been no further updates on Souma’s condition since then, and the people were worried about him.

As they waited anxiously, an image projected into the air above them: it was Souma, sitting up in bed.

“Um... Good day, citizens. It’s me, Souma E. Friedonia.”

While his pallor wasn’t terrible, the fact that he was broadcasting from bed caused some concern among the people. They breathed a sigh of relief at his apparent good health, but their worries weren’t completely dispelled.

“First, let me apologize for appearing to you like this. I’ve been running a bit of a fever. They tell me I’ve been working too hard, and yes, I have been quite busy lately. The doctor assures me I’ll be fine with a few days of rest. I promise to work really hard as soon as I’m better, so please let me rest for now.”

Souma’s tone was casual, and his mention of the doctor helped alleviate the people’s concerns. Then, unexpectedly, he opened his collar and revealed his collarbone.

“““Huh?!””” the people gasped, shocked to see a large, prominent scar there.

“This is the scar that Fuuga gave me, which I’m sure has been what’s been worrying you the most. The wound is fully healed and no longer hurts, but I was informed that using my stamina to heal this injury contributed to my current fever. However, it’s not life-threatening, so you can rest easy.”

Souma reassured them, but the people’s reactions were more complex.
