"Are you awake, Lady Avelin?"

Blink blink.

Andra opened her eyes and looked blankly at the people who were looking down at her. Where was she? She was supported by a nurse who slowly raised her upper body. When her back, covered in cold sweat, was exposed to the air, a chill ran down her spine and goosebumps rose. Someone quickly brought a shawl and covered her back.

"How many fingers do I have up?"

In front of Andra, the doctor in a white robe pulled a chair and sat down, then showed three fingers. Her brows frowned as she felt a headache, which made her head throb heavily, but Andra answered in a steady manner.

"...Three. Index, middle, ring."

"There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with hearing or sight. Lady, would you like to know where this place is? Who am I?"

"...Is it a ward, aren't you a doctor?"

"Yes, you're right. So, Lady, do you remember what happened before this? About why the Lady is here."

Before this? Andra was silent for a moment. Thanks to that, those watching her held their breath. It was because they were worried that the Young Lady of the Avellin Marquisate had lost her memory.

Amnesia was a common aftereffect to those who suddenly fell in a dungeon. Who am I? Even if she spewed out such nonsense, there would be nothing strange about it.

But Andra Avellin showed an unexpected reaction. Terrified, she scoured through the people around her and in front of the full-length mirror, and she began to remove the patient's clothes that she was wearing without anyone telling her to stop.

Andra looked at her body in the mirror as she turned around. Then she sighed in relief and at the same time made a puzzled expression on her face.

AD

Traces and marks that were formed while doing that with Dustin in the dungeon were all gone. What's more, even though she had done that, her back didn't ache or tingle to the extent that she couldn't stand on both legs.

Her body was the same as before falling into the dungeon.

'What? Was it a dream?'

There was so little change in her body that it was hard to believe that it was all a dream or an illusion.

"What day is today?"

Andra rushed to ask the people looking at her. The doctor who had been examining Andra just before answered.

"It has been two days since the Lady and the Lord went to the dungeon together. Would you like some more clothes than that? It would be more proper for you to wear more clothes."

"Two days? Have I been locked up in the dungeon for two days?"

"I'll explain the details, so please put on your clothes first."

She didn't know what happened, but once she confirmed that she was in good shape, Andra picked up the patient's gown, put it back on and sat down in front of the doctor again. She needed information. She needed to know if the events that took place in the dungeon were real or not.

"I'm a little confused, but could you please explain?"

When Andra politely asked, the doctor cleared his throat and opened his mouth again.
