Time Healer Ceres - Chapter 150
Only Ran(o)vel dot com
“Your Majesty, are you really going to leave it to me?”
Bay, the Duke of Schweiss’s aide, looked worriedly at his superior, who had been fiddling with his broken eagle necklace all day.
I had already heard through him that the young lady who had come to the Duke’s house a while ago had offered to fix this pendant.
The aide found it hard to believe. As a spy, wouldn’t he have put in such effort?
I went to the Magic Tower and asked for requests from everyone on the continent who was skilled in magic or creating image stones.
However, they said that it was impossible to repair the video stone because its core was already broken. So how could that young Yeong-ae possibly fix it?
From that day on, Duke Schweiss was unable to do anything else but just touch the pendant, and Aide Bay’s sigh deepened. He was worried that his expectations would be dashed.
‘Why don’t you trust people easily?’
Ceres, the aide who had not heard much explanation about their relationship, was extremely confused.
“What if the pendant breaks… … .”
This is my brother’s last keepsake that I’ve kept for a long time. What if it gets damaged more during restoration?
“It doesn’t matter.”
“yes?”
“Even if it breaks.”
The Duke of Schweiss’s gaze turned back to the pendant. It was a pendant he had kept for over twenty years.
It was as if this was the last link to his dead brother, and he couldn’t let it go easily.
“It might be a good opportunity.”
A chance to just let that kid go… … .
dripping.
A servant came in with a knock. He bowed his head and announced the arrival of a guest. Soon, Ceres appeared in the study where the Duke of Schweiss was.
“Welcome.”
Ceres bowed her head slightly towards the Duke of Schweiss and gave a quick greeting to her aide, Bay, who was standing next to him.
The aide, who had been sighing inwardly, bowed his head in return.
“Sit over here.”
“yes.”
“filled?”
“I would appreciate it if you could give it to me.”
As soon as the Duke of Schweiss nodded, the maid who had been waiting came with tea.
“Magic liquid?”
“yes.”
Ceres nodded and took out a small bottle from her bosom. It was a bottle containing plain water, just like the one she had used when she restored Princess Nylia’s bracelet last time.
“A friend I knew a long time ago made it for me.”
They say the more you lie, the more it gets worse. Now, I can say things like this very naturally.
“okay.”
He nodded, took off the necklace, and handed it to Ceres. Aide Bay couldn’t hide his wavering eyes as he watched Ceres lightly accept it.
‘What are you two so indifferent about?’
Another long sigh escaped the aide’s mouth, as he felt as if he was the only one who was worried.
Ceres looked at him with a puzzled look for a moment, not knowing what the problem was, and then opened a small bottle.
Took-
And she dropped the liquid inside it onto the pendant. Ceres gently touched the broken eagle as if rubbing the liquid.
“… … !”
The eyes of Aide Bay, who had been quietly watching the entire scene, suddenly opened wide.
This is because the eagle pendant, which had been crumpled and broken, was slowly returning to its original shape.
‘Was that really something that could be restored?’
Duke Schweiss was speechless for a while as he watched the pendant return to its original appearance.
“Here it is.”
Ceres then gave the necklace back to him.
“… … .”
The expression on Duke Schweiss’s face as he accepted it was filled with various emotions.
The image of the child smiling brightly when I first gave him this as a gift came back to me so vividly that all those years seemed colorless.
The Duke of Schweiss gently touched the open eagle wing of the pendant.
Then, light streamed out from the eagle’s eyes and a transparent image appeared before my eyes.
“Why is that kid so quiet?”
“well.”
“Isn’t there something wrong?”
The two men looked at the child who was crouching in the corner. The child, whose hands and feet were bound and whose eyes were covered, made no sound.
It’s been six days since the child was taken here, but the kidnappers haven’t seen the child scream or cry even once.
Even though this place is located deep in the forest and there is a sound-blocking spell installed around the area, the child’s mouth was not blocked.
‘I heard you’re only ten years old.’

Isn’t it normal to be afraid in this situation?
‘Even if it’s difficult, it’s called Schweiss.’
The man approached the child with a slightly curious look, holding a few pieces of bread and water that he had prepared for lunch.
Then he untied the blindfold covering the child’s eyes and the rope that bound his hands.
“Eat.”
“… … .”
The child’s deep black eyes turned towards the man.
The man wearing the mask clicked his tongue slightly, feeling uneasy at the gaze for some reason.
What kind of child’s eyes are so deep? It’s as if they see through every situation. It gave me goosebumps.
‘I told you not to touch Schweiss.’
They say that kindness is repaid tenfold, and enmity is repaid a hundredfold.
But what can I do? If they criticize me from above, I’ll criticize them.
“Do you think you can survive?”
“…what?”
For the first time, he heard the child’s voice. He felt uneasy again as he saw the child staring at him with his black eyes still unmoving, the corners of his mouth slightly hanging down.
“Do you think you can touch the Schweiss family and get away with it?”
“…Shut up and eat.”
“I’m scared.”
“… … .”
“Because you’ll be torn to pieces and die.”
“shut up.”
“Everyone related to you will die.”
“Shut up.”
“Not a single bit of flesh will be left behind in the sharp wind.”
“This kid… … .”
“It would be fortunate if they could just stop breathing right now, but I won’t let my father and brother die so gracefully. They’ll die in excruciating pain without even being able to scream… …!”
Phew!
Eventually, the man could no longer stand it any longer and kicked the child in the stomach. However, the child only coughed a little and did not groan.
At that sight, the man’s face distorted as if he was getting even more goosebumps.
“Cool. Okay. Let out all your anger. While you’re still alive.”
“Shut up, shut up! If you say that one more time, I’ll rip your mouth off-”
“They say that when you’re scared, your voice gets louder.”
“Hey, you unlucky kid! Who the hell was scared! Who thought our ‘Mirror’ was that easy-”
“hey!”
“… … !”
The man, who had been speaking frantically with a mixture of fear and anger, flinched at his colleague’s urgent shout.
Only then did I realize my mistake. I should never reveal the name of the organization while working!
“… … .”
The moment the child heard the name of the organization called ‘Mirror’, he said nothing more.
As if the child had been talking so fiercely until just now, he sat curled up in a corner with his mouth shut, just as he had at first.
“That kid… … !”
The man who saw that scene quickly approached the child.
Bam! Bam!
The man’s kicks continued without stopping. The child eventually let out a small groan at the kicks. However, the man’s kicks became more violent.
Toouk.
The beating knocked something from around the child’s neck. A small eagle-shaped pendant.
“F*ck!”
Didn’t you do a proper body search? Why is something like that coming out! The man stomped on it with his foot.
At that sight, fear appeared on the child’s face for the first time. The child bit his lips tightly and reached out to wrap his hand around the pendant.
“This kid!”
The man was even more annoyed by the child’s behavior and stamped on the child’s hand with his foot.
But the child did not let go of the pendant even though the flesh on the back of his hand was torn and he was in excruciating pain.
“Hey, stop it.”
A colleague who couldn’t stand to watch stopped him. Only then did the man who had been beating the child without thinking catch his breath and step back.
But the man’s face was still distorted with anger. He kept swearing as if he wanted to hide the fear he felt from the child’s words just a moment ago.
“I’m going to kill that kid! How about hitting him a little?”
“There hasn’t been any instructions from above yet. If you touch it carelessly, you’ll be held accountable.”
The man took one last look at the child, spat on the floor, and walked out.
His colleague followed him quietly. He looked at the child lying there with blood all over his body, tilting his head slightly and clicking his tongue.
What kind of child is so vicious… … .
