Urgh... I barely made it out of there.
Having to pull two all-nighters is pushing it a little, isn't it?
What if Ner catches you?
You're truly reckless sometimes, you know that, Master?
Whatever. Future me will take care of the future Ner issue.
But for now... I need some rest.
Let's go to Hilde's clinic!
Hilde's Clinic
...Closed?
Did someone put this up as a joke?
Hilde? Hilde!
She could actually be taking some time off, you know! You sure it's okay to barge in like that?
But Hilde never closes the clinic. I've never seen her do that. Not even once.
I'm sure she's just inside waiting to see patients.
Hilde? Hilde, where are you?
.........
Huh? I think I hear someone breathing softly.
.........
Master! Master!!!
Over here. She's in bed, sleeping!
What?! She's sleeping on the hospital bed?
Eeek! Lower your voice!
Hm? Master? Is that you?
I'm sorry. I was only going to rest my eyes for a bit, but it seems I ended up falling asleep.
Whoops, she really was sleeping!
Did you think I was lying?! Geez!
Oh, yeah, thanks. Sorry for waking you.
Oh! Hilde's Yearning has manifested, too!
You're right! I was so distracted that she was sleeping, I didn't even notice!
It looks like her Yearning is of herself soaking in a hot spring bath...
Aw, she must've wanted to rest really badly.
Er... Master? Why are you talking to yourself all of a sudden?
Oh, hahaha! It's nothing.
By the way, there was a sign on the door that said the clinic was closed... Did you put that up?
Yes, that was me.
See? I knew it wasn't—wait, what?!
Did something happen, Hilde?
Sigh...
Actually, I've started seeing things recently.
I haven't made much progress on my research lately...
And a patient, who I've been regularly counseling for a while now, has gradually been getting worse...
I've been carrying so much of this internally that I fear it may have taken a toll on me mentally.
I see... I had no idea you were struggling like this...
Hilde... I think you may need some R&R.
Hmm, R&R? It would be a lie if I said I didn't.
Why don't you just take a proper vacation and really recharge your batteries?
Maybe you could take a trip to the Monatium Hot Springs Resort?
Hot springs...?
It's okay. I got some sleep in today, so I should be somewhat recovered.
I'll be able to reopen the clinic normally tomorrow, so don't worry too much.
Still... sometimes stepping away from work entirely can help a great deal.
Your physical health is important, absolutely, but you should take care of your mental health too, okay?
Whether it's for your research or for the patients who entrust you with their body and mind...
I think it's important to make sure you recharge yourself once in a while.
Of course, this is something you would know more about yourself, Hilde.
You're right. A nap in the clinic doesn't really count as R&R.
Alright. I'll make sure to schedule some regular R&R time.
Thank you for showing such concern, Master.
Here's your doctor's note. Take a load off while you're here before you head back.
Sweet! Thanks, Hilde!
Two birds... one stone, right?
Well, all's well that ends well, right?!
