The rest of the summer vacation ends quickly, and the calendar gradually changes from summer to autumn in September and the season.

Yasushi's school has also begun a new semester, with the sight of Elle dropping him off every morning.

Elle, who had sent Yasushi to school, washed and cleaned, slept in bed in the Akatsuka family's own room and looked up at the ceiling blurry by herself.

Though it's already autumn on the calendar, the heat is still harsh. He says it's still morning, but he just moves a little and sweats out.

Still intending to stay, she only turns the fan to withstand the heat.

For that reason, she was pretty thin right now. Elle is the only one at home, so I guess she's relaxed, too.

On a thin blue tank top, the bottom has a dewy skin called shorts.

Besides, sometimes there's no one's eyes in the house, and it's the end of not even a bra.

If Yasushi sees what Elle looks like now, he must frown on his overly alert outfit.

No, maybe I'll stretch it under my nose.

Elle, alone at home dressed like that, was remembering a summer vacation that was fun.

Even after the bonsai, I went everywhere with Yasushi, Aoi, and Ryus.

As I said before, I also went to a huge water park on Long Island, and I took the train to the sea. Although sometimes the sea was too much of a basin, it did not enter the sea.

Yasushi says there are more dangerous creatures called jellyfish in the ocean after the basin.

Although I did not enter the sea, the first sea I saw was amazing. The wide ocean everywhere, the smell of a slightly habitual tide and the sounds of the waves that strike can still be clearly revived in the back of the brain.

We had a great day watching a variety of sea creatures and dolphin shows at an establishment called Beachland in Nanchito.

Sometimes people like Love (Megumi), Yasuda, and Sawada go out together, and it was a summer of really fun memories.

But when school starts and you're gone during the day, I miss being alone in the summer vacation recoil that was fun.

Elle stretches her fingertips unintentionally to her cell phone in an attempt to hear your voice on the phone.

Still, while at school - precisely during class - I recall your saying that you can't answer the phone, and Elle can pull a finger stretched out without help.

"Mr. Yastaka... I was wondering if you could come home soon..."

The whining voice, not making anyone listen, is absorbed into the ceiling.

Long sticking ears are also a bit creepy, as if she's manifesting herself in her current mood.

"Even if we do this, Mr. Yastaka isn't coming home early..."

When Elle gets her upper body up on the bed, she takes the pet bottle that was on the floor under the bed and opens its lid.

"Let's do a little magic practice. Pi, Tsir, hang out with me."

In response to her call, a spirit of water from inside a pet bottle, a phantom spirit from a ring fitted in her right hand shows up.

Following the two spirits who made the covenant, Elle slowly concentrates on communicating with them.

Communicating with the Spirit is the most important thing for Spirit users, and it is basic training.

In the evening, Yasushi finally came home from school.

I'm home.

"Welcome home!!"

Elle shows herself from the back of the house along with a mild footsteps of puffiness.

"Wow, that's so sweaty"

"Well, if you walk in this temperature,"

When he saw the sweat floating in Yasushi's face, Elle raised his voice of surprise.

It's still hot and humid in the evening, and it's only natural to sweat because you're walking back in like that.

"Why don't you even take a shower? In the meantime, I'll make you some cold tea, right?

"Well, let me ask you a favor"

"Yes, roger that."

Smiling el.

It's like some newlywed family exchange, but the two of us haven't noticed that as if.

Yasushi returns to his room once and goes to the bathroom with a change of clothes. Meanwhile, Elle removes a pet bottle of tea from the fridge and pours its contents into two glasses.

As he prepares to do so, Yasushi, who has finished showering, shows up in the living room.

Yasushi, bath towel around his neck with a t-shirt and shortbread, went into the cooled living room and zeroed his sigh.

In anticipation of the time that Yasushi would return, Elle kept the cooling in advance.

"When I sweat like this and then go into a cooled room, I feel the thanks of the appliance."

"Really, Denkaseihin is all handy"

Yasushi and Elle sit opposite each other at the table for meals in the living room and moisten each other's throats with tea.

At that time, Yasushi felt uncomfortable with Elle in front of him.

I wonder what it is and I'll take another look at Elle, Yasushi.

I can't take it apart and see any change. Light, shiny blonde hair, sapphire-like eyes, and long protruding characteristic ears are her as usual.

So what was the discomfort you felt earlier? when I leaned my neck unexpectedly. Yasushi was able to realize who he was.

"Is that it? Doesn't your face look a little red?

"Really?

Yasushi tells me that Elle touches her face with her hands.

I feel that Elle's skin, usually like virgin snow, is slightly reddish today. That was the identity of the discomfort you felt.

"You don't feel well or anything like that?

"It's okay."

"Even when you're alone, you don't have to put in the cooling, do you? I get heat stroke in my room when it's hot."

"I'm just putting the cooling in this afternoon, so it's really okay."

Repeat everything is okay, El. When Yasushi gets a look of surprise, he rides himself out on the table and touches Elle's forehead.

".................. that's a little hot"

"That's why it's okay!! This is, you know, that's it! I was practicing magic in the morning, so the fever was there..."

Ignoring Elle, who makes excuses for this, Yasushi took the electronic thermometer out of the first aid kit in the corner of the living room.

"What... is that...?

Look at Yasushi, who took out an unfamiliar instrument, with a frightened look on Elle's face.

"Tell him to keep his mouth shut for a minute. Look, turn sideways."

"Huh? Huh?

Elle was sidelined by Yasushi a little forcefully. Her complexion is clearly red now.

But it is unclear whether the reason for this is due to ill health, or because someone touched my face from close range.

Yasushi inserted the heat sensitive part of the ear-type thermometer into the hole in her ear when she gently touched her long ear, leaving room for confusing el.

"Pi, piaaaaa!!"

Elle screams unwittingly small at the foreign body that breaks into her ears.

Soon after, the thermometer played the sound of the end of the measurement, and Yasushi frowned when he saw the numbers displayed there.

"Three, seven, four degrees... when it comes to slight heat, it's slight heat..."

Speaking of which, Yasushi comes to think of it.

It's a well-known fact that 37 degrees is one separation of body temperature, but that's just this human story.

Is the division between the different worlds, and the heterogeneous fever called elves, the same as this human being?

"Hey, El. In the Elles' world, when you get your temperature, you decide you have a fever?

"Huh? That's when I touched my body and thought it was hot..."

"............... right. You don't measure specific body temperatures... but you don't have the instruments to measure them."

Come to think of it, I don't think there's a thermometer in the Elles' world.

Medicine and medicine will be lagging behind this world, and the general treatment of illnesses and injuries is probably something like folk therapy or its extension.

"In the meantime, why don't you call the experts later"

By expert he means, of course, Kaori, his mother.

She was an internist at a nearby general hospital until she decided to transfer her father. You'd be more right to rely on your expert mother than on your amateur health.

"Then Elle still stick this up and lie down in the room. I'll make you something to digest."

Yasushi removes the cooling sheet for antipyretic from the first aid kit and gently scratches up Elle's forehead and affixes the sheet to her forehead perfectly.

"Hin! It's cold..."

"It works because it's cold."

While touching the cooling sheet on her forehead, which seemed unusual, Elle was escorted to her room by Yasushi.

"Yes, you have a little fever."

There's a mother's voice over the phone.

When Yasushi put Elle to bed in his room, he quickly called his mother. And Elle tells him he seems to have a fever and asks him what to do.

"Should I give you an over-the-counter antipyretic or something?

"No, you can't take over-the-counter drugs."

"Why not?

Kaori told Yasushi that if she gave this world medicine to Elle, who is not a human, she would not know what side effects would appear.

'Of course, there's definitely not going to be any side effects. As long as you're still at risk of side effects, you can't let Elle take this medicine.'

I also think Yasushi is right about her mother.

It is a drug that is repeated over and over again and finally released to meet safety standards, but it is all against humans in this world only. There is no way that elves from different worlds are considered to have any impact.

'If we talk about extremes, it's not surprising that our gut functions differently from ours or that we have gut organs that we don't have. As Yasushi knows, we humans are creatures that have evolved from monkeys, but not necessarily from monkeys in the same way that humans in El's world have evolved. In the first place, the Elves are not human beings.'

It's about the fantasy world, so humans are likely to believe that God made them. On the contrary, it is not surprising that the gods really existed to create man.

Even this world wasn't established so long ago by the theory of evolution. Charles Darwin of Ka published The Origin of Species in 1859. It was only about 150 years ago.

"So what are we gonna do?

'I'll be right back over there. If you don't actually check it out, you don't know what kind of illness Elle is. Depending on the type of illness, you have to consider hospitalization.'

"Huh, hospitalized!? That would be a lot awkward!?"

'You don't have a choice, do you? You might be able to talk about Elle, but if you leave her sick, she could be irretrievable, right?

If you go to the hospital and do a lot of tests, you must quickly expose that Elle is not human. Or you can't just leave Elle alone like this. In the worst case, it could be life-threatening.

Even if she lost Elle, it was definitely more than she lost her life. That's all for sure.

When Yasushi is sincerely prepared, the warm voice of his mother can be heard even over the phone.

'Don't worry. Even if it looks like this, the same industry has a good face. I know a doctor who runs a stiff personal hospital. If I have to, I'll ask around. You didn't even decide to be seriously ill in the first place, did you?

To the mother's words, relieve Yasushi.

If you think about it, it's most likely just a summer cold. It was a fever. It's not that high, and if you sleep overnight like this, that fever might go down.

The likelihood of a life-threatening serious illness is never zero, but that would be extremely unlikely.

"Well, talk to Yuji. I'll be right back."

"Okay. But don't panic too much and have a car accident or something, okay?

Afterwards, Yasushi hit Elle's care with her parents, who returned.

But in the end, Elle's fever never dropped that night.

On the contrary, her body temperature had risen more and more on the contrary, and she had finally reached thirty-eight degrees.
