I was Reincarnated in Another World with Absorb Skills

Chapter 14- The End of Suffering

Nandito pa rin ako sa kwarto ni Aisha, katatapos lang ng iyakan at yakapan kaya kaagad nakatulog ang mga bata.

I immediately had the children transferred to a clean room because we needed to sanitize Aisha’s room. It wasn’t safe to leave it unclean, there was a risk someone else could get poisoned.

Nang umalis ang mag-asawa para dalhin sa kabilang kwarto ang mga anak ay inilabas ko kaagad ang cleaner slimes and garbage slimes para linisin ang paligid.

They worked quickly. The cleaner slimes wiped away dust and cobwebs from every corner of the room, while the garbage slimes took care of the trash, even the blood that stained the bed and floor. I sprayed disinfectant from my Earth Store Dimension to purify the air and eliminate any bacteria or poison lingering in the space. Then I opened the window to let fresh air in. Sinigurado ko munang wala nang lason na kahalo ang hangin na mula sa kwarto ni Aisha para na rin siguradong walang malalason sa labas.

Habang nagpapatuloy sa paglilinis ay pumasok ulit ang mag-asawa at natigilan na nakikita. Malinis na ang kwarto ni Aisha, wala na ding alikabok at maayos na ang higaan. Natagalan sila bumalik pero alam ko naman na gusto nilang manatili sa tabi ni Aisha.

"You don't have to do this" mabilis na sabi ni August habang tinitingnan ang mga slimes na patuloy padin sa paglilinis.

I just smiled and burned the Kaluvac roots that Esmeralda had collected earlier in my hand.

"How's the kids?"nakangiti kong tanong saka pinagpagan ang kamay.

"They're asleep" nakangiting sabi ni Esmeralda at lumapit saakin, ganun nalang ang gulat ko ng yakapin niya ako ng mahigpit at narinig ko nalang ulit ang hikbi niya.

"Thank you for saving my daughter. Thank you. Thank you"paulit ulit niyang sabi habang humihikbi, miski si August ay tahimik na nakangiti at puno ng pasasalamat na nakatingin saakin, napangiti nalang ako at sinuklian ang yakap nito.

"Youre welcome. So please stop crying I've had enough of that today." Natatawang sabi ko dito. Agad itong kumalas ng pagkakayakap habang mahinahong tumatawa at pinapahiran ang mga luha.

"Sorry, I'm just happy kase finally, gumaling na rin ang anak ko" mangiyak ngiyak na saad nya.

“And I’m also grateful to you, Lily. Thank you. May the Holy Goddess bless you,” August added, and I gave him a warm smile.

“I’m blessed just hearing that,” I replied sincerely.

Naupo kami sa isang malinis na upuan at nagusap.

"Pero paano mo pala nalaman ang lunas sa sakit ng anak ko?"seryosong tanong ni August na ikina-seryoso ko din.

“To tell you the truth, Aisha didn’t have an illness. She was poisoned,” I said, and their eyes widened in shock.

“Poisoned!?” Esmeralda gasped.

“Yes, and not just any kind. Only 3% of the population in the entire world is exposed to this type of poison. And the cause? The roots of the Kaluvac plant.”

"Pagkadating ko pa lang dito ay nagduda na ako na baka ito ang dahilan ng sakit ni Aisha at 'di nga ako nagkamali dahil sa kulay ng dugo na isinusuka nito at kulay ng ugat na nakapalibot sa katawan ng bata"

"Thanks to a book I read, I recognized the symptoms and knew the cure. I was also fortunate that you had Angelina herbs growing in your garden,” I finished.

Napatakip nalang ng bibig si Esmeralda habang nakakuyom ng mahigpit ang kamay ni August.

“Oh my god. This is all my fault,” Esmeralda said, overwhelmed with guilt.

“If I hadn’t agreed to plant that Kaluvac heart in our yard… if I hadn’t been swayed by its beauty, none of this would’ve happened to Aisha!” she continued, blaming herself. August quickly tried to comfort her.

“No. This isn’t your fault. It’s that deceitful merchant’s fault! If he hadn’t claimed that plant would bring good luck to our home, this wouldn’t have happened,” August said through gritted teeth.

So there’s a culprit, huh.

"Salamat Laythildia. Kundi ka pumunta sa bahay namin siguradong wala na si Aisha at hindi namin malalaman ang rason ng paghihirap ng anak ko, maraming salamat" ani ni August na tinanguan ko lang.

“That’s why we need to remove every Kaluvac heart planted around your home as soon as possible,” I said immediately.

“But we still need the flowers. I’ll pick them later so Aisha can continue drinking the cure and fully recover,” I added, and they both nodded in agreement.

“As for the Luna Inn, I’ve decided to give it to you. It’s the least we can do to repay our debt to you,” August said, and I couldn’t hide my delight.

"So it's a deal. Bukas na bukas din ay kailangan nating mabayaran ang lahat ng utang ng inn para wala ng masabi at mahabol pa ang gustong bumili dito"masayang sabi ko.

We continued talking about important matters—Aisha’s treatment, the Luna Inn, and making sure the entire mansion was cleaned thoroughly for the children's safety. We discussed what Aisha should eat and drink the foods that I suggested during recovery. Later, we went out to the garden and collected Kaluvac flowers and Angelina herbs. Once we were done, I burned all the remaining Kaluvac roots and made sure the area was fully cleansed. I told them I’d bring more of the cure the next day so Aisha could continue her healing. And that’s where her suffering will end.

Dilim na ng makauwi ako at bagsak ang katawang nakatitig sa kisame.

A lot happened today. I almost witnessed the end of a precious little angel’s life. But at least I’m sure now—we’ll be able to pay off the inn’s debt. Nakapag pa-schedule na kaagad ako ng meeting para bukas kay Baron Francis.

'Dear Goddess, thank you for the blessings. Please protect me and those who are important to me. Let Aisha heal and grow strong, keep her safe from the pain. And lastly, guide me tomorrow, my Goddess.' I prayed silently before pulling the comforter over myself and slowly drifting off to sleep.
