Underground Doctor - Chapter 3.1

Chapter 3.1

In Alicia's room, there is a hole to a different dimension .
　Inside that hole is a heavy-looking door .
　There was a red lamp on the door that says “ongoing operation” .
　Cain-san prayed to God with a sorrowful face .
　Has an hour just passed by?
　For Cain-san, it felt more .
　Suddenly, the lamp went out and the door opened .
　Out of the different space was me carrying Alicia .
 
"Alicia-chan is safe . She’s okay with the surgery, so don't worry anymore . " (Kaoru)
 
　I was holding Alicia with both arms .
 
"What? Is it truly all right??" (Cain)
 
　Cain-san, who is so confused, speaks with a teary voice that shows his feelings of disbelief .
　Can Cain-san be relieved? His tension breaks and he suddenly collapsed on his seat .
　And reality finally dawned on him .
　As I laid Alicia on her bed, and also sat on the bed .
 
“I think it was finished at a shorter time and it didn’t put much strain on her body . I mean, I realized that it would take 2 hours to complete a heart transplant and I was nervous . The medical magic was extremely helpful . Soon, I think Alicia-chan will wake up when the anesthesia comes out of her system . I'll let her sleep it off, so let her rest for the time being . I also think that she will feel some nausea as a side effect of anesthesia . So she should be careful, but she’ll be happy to have porridge tomorrow . ” (Kaoru)
 
　I turned to Cain-san and told him .
 
"Thank you . Kaoru-sama, thank you so much . . . " (Cain)
"Well, you can thank me at a later date . " (Kaoru)
 
　I think there are things I can't understand unless I monitor the progress properly .
　I was wearing a bitter face but cooled my expression .
　While doing that, Alicia woke up .
　She was looking at me with sleepy eyes .
　Gently stroking Alicia's head and saying, "You did your best," at her ear and stood up from the spot .
　Alicia is still under the effects and wasn't going to make a decent conversation, so she lost consciousness and fell asleep .
　I felt her return to sleep .
 
"Yeah . I wouldn't want to peel off the sticker that Alicia's body has now . It's because I'll send the electrocardiogram data to me . If something goes wrong, I'll be able to know it . I'm going home for today . '' (Kaoru)
 
　I walk towards the door .
 
"Where is Kaoru-san staying? How can I contact you . . . ?" (Cain)
 
　When I hear the words, I remember Reese’s place .
　Today's inn and restaurant .


 
"Ah . I'm at the Reese Clinic in the medical area, so if there's something you need, you should visit there . Maybe I'll be there until tomorrow . Also, I'll see you again tomorrow . I’ll be coming back, so don't worry . " (Kaoru)
 
　Saying so, I raised my hand, waved goodbye, and left Orvis's mansion to return to the Reese Clinic .

　When the sun went down, I finally arrived at [Reese Clinic] and opened the door .
 
"Oh, you’re still here? Did you fail to earn money?" (Kaoru)
"There will be more next time! Wait! And I'm not broke!" (Reese)
"Oh, I just came home, the husband but I didn’t get a welcome home . " (Kaoru)
"When did I become your wife!" (Reese)
 
　Reese replied with a bright red face .
　Teasing her is so fun .
　I sat down on a chair in the store and turned around to look up at the sky and felt exhausted for the day .
　That’s when Reese said .
 


"Speaking of which, you said you're going to work, but is it over?" (Reese)
"Hmmm, it's over . After that, if the patient begins rehabilitation and takes medicine for 3 months, she'll be able to recover normally and live . I'm afraid that the reward will be less than expected . But I'm looking forward to it . " (Kaoru)
 
　I answered with a grin .
　I was quite pleased and craving for some alcohol . I hope to drink some! I whined, "I wish I had been paid by Cain in advance . "
 
"So, what kind of person did you treat? Does that mean you've cured a lot of injuries?" (Reese)
 
　“Tell me a little”, Reese poke me with that look .
 
"Hey, did you want to talk about the critically ill patient? The child’s name is Alicia . " (Kaoru)
 
　I spoke happily, and replied to Reese with a sly look .
 
"What?" (Reese)
 
　Reese became surprised and her eyes widened .
　She couldn't believe that the disease that even the Great Priest couldn't cure was cured by me .
　Reese asks me .
　After all, she thinks I would answer her because we are in the same profession .
　I told her about today, but Reese looks at me with a hard to read face and feels like she's thinking about it .


 
"Medical Magic? What are you? What did you do? Explain to me so that I can understand!" (Reese)
"I don't know much of it . I wonder if I did something bad to Reese . I'm sorry if I did . " (Kaoru)
 
　Reese retreats but glares at me .
 
"Okay, I'll explain it in a simplified way and my thoughts too . So can I begin . " (Kaoru)
"Muh, I understand . But I'll be angry if you hide something . " (Reese)
 
　Pouty Reese replied to me .
 
"The girl has a bad heart . I exchanged it for a new healthy heart in place of her dying heart . " (Kaoru)
"No, I understand what you mean, but can you do that with recovery magic?" (Reese)
"Well, that's the way I done it . I used it because organ synthesis and medical magic were different from recovery magic . Well, I don't know the difference . I don't know how it works . Let’s end the discussion here . " (Kaoru)
 
　I confirmed Alicia's ECG on the status screen, using the patch on her body . She seems tired and resting .
　Her heart rate is stable due to her health getting better .
　For now, I eat Reese's dinner, thinking that it's just a wait-and-see scenario .
　While eating, I told Reese her cooking is barely passable, then a thick book hit my forehead and made me hold my head .
　After eating, I slept so much that I just bummed on Reese’s couch and turned in for the day .
