Chapter 27 - Chapter 27: Eula on the Snowy Mountain

Good news: this girl is Eula. Cid could tell at a glance.

Bad news: Cid's little cave has very nice insulation, so there's no steamy scene like in wuxia novels where the protagonist warms someone with body heat.

Good news: because of Dragonspine, Cid had prepared medicine himself, so little Eula's fever was right up his professional alley.

Bad news: little Eula is conscious; she's just weak from the fever and has no strength, so drinking medicine isn't a problem—meaning there's also no steamy mouth-to-mouth feeding scene.

"Here, child, time to take your medicine." Uncle Cid blew on the medicinal soup he had just finished brewing to cool it.

Little Eula was very obedient and drank the medicine quietly, probably because she had no strength left—she couldn't even say a word.

Then, after finishing the medicine, she couldn't keep her eyelids open and immediately fell into a deep sleep.

Cid watched as little Eula seemed about to open her mouth to say something, but instead instinctively fell asleep first.

This kind of behavior is pretty normal for a child.

Cid reached out to check her breathing, then followed the scientific insulation measures from the Dragonspine Medical Guide he had bought at the Cathedral of Favonius—like wrapping little Eula properly in blankets…

He also needed to start cooking porridge as reminded by the Dragonspine Medical Guide. Mm, and prepare today's dinner at the same time.

Spinach slices, pre-cut frozen meat, poultry eggs, add water and rice…

While waiting for it to cook, Cid looked at little Eula. The way this child was bundled up in the blankets while sleeping made him feel like she would sleep for a very long time.

But why is little Eula on Dragonspine?

Cid looked toward the cave entrance. Outside, snowflakes were raging wildly.

I'll study that move in my head a bit more for now.

Attach the Anemo element to the spear tip, then add rotation to create propulsion, aim outside the cave…

Activate! All the Anemo element I can control!

In that brief instant, fierce winds propelled the spear forward at high speed. Cid, who had anticipated it, steadied himself with both feet at the center.

He directly followed the spear and shot out of the cave entrance in an instant with the Anemo element.

The distance he flew out of the cave was a bit too far, and in the end he had to actually use the Wind Glider to fly.

Troublesome. The condensation speed is indeed fast, but I can't control it.

And I can't react in time when rushing out.

Cid knew this was largely because he had spent too little time playing with elemental power. For now, all he could do was simply play with it more—however felt fun.

After returning to the cave, Cid looked at the rising steam from the pot and the gradually thickening aroma, judging that it was almost done.

Then Cid turned his gaze to little Eula. At this moment, the child was still sleeping soundly, making Uncle Cid somewhat reluctant to wake her.

After thinking about it, Uncle Cid decided to use Anemo elemental force to waft the aroma from the pot, filling the entire cave with the scent of food.

If the child is hungry, she should wake up, right?

If possible, Uncle Cid didn't really want to disturb this child's sleep.

After all, being warmly wrapped in a little blanket on Dragonspine allows for very sweet sleep.

And as it turned out, the uncle's wish came true.

Uncle Cid kept watching Eula. By the time the uncle was on his second bowl of spinach and egg porridge, little Eula's eyelids finally showed movement.

The uncle set down his bowl and hurriedly served a portion for the child.

Thus, when little Eula, who had slept for a short while, had just woken up, she saw a tall adventurer uncle holding a bowl in his hands.

"Child, want to eat something first?" Cid, who in Dragonspine hadn't bothered with grooming at all and only washed his face with clear water, said enthusiastically.
