Chapter 2: An Unexpected Reunion

The next day, Madeleine had no energy. Her face was pale, and her lips were bluish. Apparently, her father had transformed that night, and Madeleine had to join in on suppressing him. Normally, inexperienced women were not allowed to participate in a Suppression, but in emergencies, that restriction was lifted.

“Mother collapsed midway...” Madeleine explained. It looked like it took all the energy she had to even walk.

“Why didn’t you take the day off and get some rest?”

“I thought that my symptoms were light compared to Mother’s...”

“You shouldn’t be comparing your condition to anyone else’s,” I said, scolding her.

“Indeed, you might be right about that...”

I took Madeleine to the rose greenhouse, where there was no one around. I decided to get her to rest until classes started. The greenhouse was full of roses in bloom to be used in classes, and the air was filled with a strong fragrance.

Madeleine loved roses. Upon smelling them, the wrinkles in her brow began to ease up. But it wasn’t like the fragrance completely healed her discomfort.

“Madeleine, what’s wrong?” I asked.

“Millefie, I have so many pimples on my face. Don’t I look awful?”

Bad skin was the enemy of women everywhere, but this wasn’t the time to worry about that. I wanted her to focus on recovering her energy.

“Are you okay? Do you feel dizzy?”

“No. I only joined toward the end, so I don’t feel any dizziness,” Madeleine explained. Still, she was exhausted from spending too much mana.

I handed her the pimple ointment, the honey candy, and the caramel candy from the previous day.

Madeline was puzzled. “Millefie, I thought these were going to take a while to finish,” she inquired.

“They ended up being ready after just a few hours. It was a full moon yesterday, so there must have been a lot of mana pouring onto the earth.”

“I see.”

I told her that the caramel candy was made with milk that I’d been drinking midway. “If you don’t want that, just throw it away.”

“It’s all right. I’ll have it later, okay?” Madeleine muttered. She said that she wanted to take care of the blemish on her face first.

I rubbed the ointment on it.

“Whoa?!”

A small magic circle floated on top of the blemish. It shone with a faint light before dispersing. In the next moment, the pimple on Madeleine’s face had completely disappeared.

“Millefie, I think my pimple is gone,” Madeleine said, astonished.

“Y-Yes, you’re right.”

“I don’t feel as exhausted as I had earlier either.”

It seemed that the pimple ointment had worked. I let out a sigh of relief.

“Millefie, you’re a genius! This is amazing!” Madeleine grabbed my hands and started jumping up and down in excitement. “With this, I’m sure Mother will feel better in no time too!”

“Madeleine, I have a request.”

“What is it?”

“I don’t have a problem with you handing the candy to your mother, but could you not tell her that I made it?”

“How come?” Madeleine inquired.

“So it doesn’t fall into the wrong hands,” I replied.

“Oh... Oh, you’re quite right.”

I was glad that she’d understood what I meant by that.
