Xiao Xun looked at the anxious Frisius. "Your Majesty, although I agreed to treat the princess's illness, I must be upfront. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to treat her."
"You say it."
Xiao Xun turned to look at the princess again. "I will certainly do my best to save her. But let me be clear beforehand, I cannot guarantee if she can be cured. If she truly cannot be cured, you cannot blame me for it."
Frisius readily agreed, "Whether the princess can be cured or not, I am willing to fight the Four Demon Kings."
Xiao Xun nodded with relief. Suddenly, he remembered something. "By the way, Your Majesty, what element is the princess?"
"What element?"
Xiao Xun explained, "Yes, my Borgard is a two-headed dragon, one breathes fire, and the other breathes ice. I wonder if the princess..."
"The princess is of the earth element, like her mother."
Xiao Xun nodded as if he understood. He asked this to eliminate possibilities. "Then I will take the princess with me now."
Frisius extended his hand and said, "Where are you going? I'll see you two off!"
Xiao Xun waved his hand. "I'm going somewhere you can't send me."
Saying that, he grasped the princess's hand, chanted an incantation, and brought the princess to the modern world.
Due to spatial distortion, Xiao Xun had a nosebleed, and the dragon princess also frowned in discomfort.
Xiao Xun had heard from Borgard that dragon skin was exceptionally hard, especially for those who could transform into human form, which was why he dared to bring the princess here directly.
He hadn't expected the princess to be so weak that she couldn't resist the damage caused by spatial distortion.
He didn't dare to take the princess back to the villa, nor did he dare to send her directly to the hospital. Instead, he went to the Tianhao Hotel.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Xiao Xun left the princess outside the hotel first.
The hotel manager knew Xiao Xun's identity and didn't ask any further questions, immediately arranging a presidential suite.
After checking in, Xiao Xun directly carried the princess to the elevator in the underground parking lot, swiped his card, and entered the presidential suite.
He first placed the princess in the bathtub, then turned on the cold water to fill the tub and began searching online for ways to reduce fever.
Then he thought, this is a dragon. Although she looked human now, she wasn't human after all.
But he couldn't find any information online about how to treat a sick dragon, so he could only go out to consult a pet hospital that specialized in treating cold-blooded animals.
As soon as he entered, he was surrounded by all sorts of snakes and lizards, making his scalp tingle. He hated these cold-blooded animals the most.
The receptionist asked him what he wanted. After explaining his purpose, he paid the consultation fee and went to the doctor's office.
"Where is your pet?"
"I didn't bring her. I'm just here for a consultation."
"I can't see her, so it's hard to judge!"
"The key is that she's too big and not easy to carry. Most importantly, she has a fever. I want to know how to cool her down and restore her to normal body temperature."
The doctor adjusted his glasses. "For raising cold-blooded animals, temperature is most important, especially for lizards, which are very sensitive to temperature. Is the heating at home too high?"
"No, the air conditioning temperature is constant, neither cold nor hot."
"Are there any wounds on her body? Is it inflamed?"
Xiao Xun thought for a moment. "I didn't notice that. What if it's inflamed?"
"We have three types of anti-inflammatory drugs here: one is oral, one is injectable, and one is a spray. Which one do you want?"
"Which one is more effective?"
"Of course, the spray is the most effective. If she accidentally got injured and infected, the spray can directly eliminate the bacteria in the wound, and our medicine can also effectively prevent bacterial growth and promote wound healing."
"Alright, then give me this spray medicine!"
Watching the doctor write the prescription, he then asked the doctor, "If there are no wounds and it's not an environmental issue, what else could cause a fever?"
The doctor paused, his hands stopping from typing on the keyboard. "It's best if you bring her here for me to see. I can't diagnose a disease just by thinking. If it's really inconvenient for you to bring your pet, we can also provide house calls."
Xiao Xun thought to himself: If you come here and see her, it would be disastrous.
"Forget about the house call. Just prescribe this medicine first!"
The doctor shook his head and continued, "Actually, there is another way that can cause a high fever, which is poisoning. Think about it, did you feed her specialized pet food? If she didn't eat pet food, did you feed her anything else unclean, including the water she drank?"
Xiao Xun thought to himself: How would I know this!
"Doctor, if there are signs of food poisoning like this, is there medicine to treat it?"
"Yes, but it's not as fast as bringing her here for a stomach wash. Generally, this happens more often with furry animals. Cold-blooded animals almost never eat things indiscriminately."
In the end, he was given a large batch of medicine. It's expensive enough to see a doctor as a human, and pet medicine is even more expensive.
When he returned to the room, it was already dark. Xiao Xun turned on the lights and arranged the medicine bottle by bottle. He looked at the instructions and planned to check if the princess was injured first.
He took off his jacket, rolled up his shirt sleeves, and crouched in front of the bathtub. "Princess, excuse me for the intrusion."
Saying that, he gently began to move the princess's body. The cold water in the bathtub had become warm. After carefully examining her, he found no trace of injury on any of her exposed skin.
Xiao Xun licked his lips, swallowed, and with slightly trembling fingers, began to unfasten the princess's clothes.
Before he could even undo the first one, the princess grabbed his wrist.
She weakly opened her eyes, her gaze fierce. "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
Xiao Xun's face instantly turned red. "Your Highness, I am Swain of St. Roman. Your father asked me to treat you."
Upon hearing St. Roman, her vigilance slowly subsided. However, she was too weak, and the bathtub was particularly slippery.
"Where is this? Where is my father?"
Xiao Xun explained to her, "This is another world. I was entrusted by your father to come specifically to treat your illness."
She looked at Xiao Xun. "Then why are you taking off my clothes?"
"Because I couldn't determine if you were injured or poisoned, I wanted to check if you had any wounds."
Hearing this, the princess said, "Then you can look!"
Xiao Xun did not reach out. Instead, he asked, "Your Highness, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere on your body?"
"My whole body feels numb and swollen. I don't know what's wrong. I feel dizzy and just want to sleep."
Xiao Xun pressed the switch to drain the water, picked up the princess, and placed her on the large bed in the master bedroom, turning on the air conditioning to cool the room.
Then he took a deep breath and silently recited: I am doing this for the sake of treatment. A doctor's heart is like a parent's.
While chanting, he unfastened the princess's dress. There was no underwear underneath.
The princess had a very good figure, but her skin and the tiny scales on her body had extinguished Xiao Xun's desire. He took out his phone, turned on the flashlight mode, and examined almost every inch of her skin. He found no wounds at all, not even a slight scratch.
