The Goddess Is Obsessed With Me [Complete]

Chapter 73

"Oo...."

With the lingering headache, I groaned in pain and slowly began to sit up.

The unfamiliar ceiling and the stiffness of my body created an unpleasant awakening.

"Where am I..."

Though my current condition was indescribably disheveled, the serene and gentle sunlight filtering into the room slightly lifted my spirits.

"Finally awake, are you?"

As I was trying to collect my scattered thoughts and rubbing my head, a leisurely male voice reached my ears.

"This is the infirmary. You suddenly screamed in pain and collapsed, so we moved you here."

He looked young, but he carried an air of wisdom as if he had experienced life's fullness.

"They said you fell for no apparent reason."

"Ah..."

The man, unmistakably knowledgeable in medicine given his white coat, prompted the last memory I had. I was seeing Marika's happy smile after defeating Avram's corrupt proposal on her behalf.

I couldn't recall the specifics, but we were having a pleasant conversation when Marika's words were suddenly interrupted by a crippling headache. I probably screamed and writhed on the floor, feeling an all too familiar jolt in my head.

"But, thankfully, you seem fine now."

What had caused me such distress? I couldn't find a reason, but at least I felt okay for now.

"Yes, I think I'm okay."

Even though I was certain the problem originated from my head, I instinctively checked other parts of my body.

"Are you in pain anywhere else right now?"

To his question, I respectfully bowed, and he, seeing my reaction, gave a relieved smile and gestured for me to leave.

"No, I'm not. My body feels much better now, so I think I should leave."

"Alright, go on. Princess Marika and student Aris must be worried about you."

His words made me tilt my head in confusion.

"Princess Marika and Aris are worried about me? Did they come to see me while I was unconscious?"

At that, the health teacher chuckled mysteriously, then with a languid voice, he told me,

"Actually, Princess Marika, accompanied by Aris, personally carried you here. She was shedding tears like a downpour. Can you imagine?"

Marika and Aris cried as they brought me here?

It was hard to believe that they were so distraught over my condition.

While I didn't witness it myself, it felt unlikely, and I was skeptical.

Seeing my doubtful expression, the health teacher's smile faded, and he suddenly looked perplexed.

"Aren't you close with the princess?"

He was now seemingly glaring at me with a disapproving gaze.

"Technically, we're just regular classmates. Nothing more, nothing less."

Upon my response, something seemed to have disappointed him. He appeared momentarily shocked before letting out a resigned sigh.

"Do people often tell you that you're oblivious?"

"Why would they?"

Genuinely puzzled by his comment, I asked. He gave a helpless expression and took a deep breath.
