Chapter 57: Dangerous disease
So he asked Baktou and the worker groups to prepare some empty houses in the outskirt of the village for them to stay.
Eva, sensing the gravity of the situation, thought hard about it and whispered her knowledge to Garnt, "Garnt, we need to back off. This disease is not something to be taken lightly. It\'s dangerous and will easily spread with one wrong move."
Garnt nodded and turned to address everyone in the cave. "Alright, everyone, step back. We need to discuss something important."
As Garnt retreated from the group, the details of the disease began to flood his mind while Eva kept explaining things to him.
Once he got to know that it was a dangerous illness that could be transmitted through the air, he quickly decided to take his actions.
The stranger to all this, Rona, watched with a mixture of confusion and fear. "What\'s happening?" she asked Garnt not knowing how to react.
Garnt, his face reflecting the seriousness of the situation, replied, "Rona, this is a very dangerous disease called tuberculosis. It\'s not easy to cure, but I believe I can help your parents. However, I need your assistance.
Until then, we all need to wear masks when we\'re near them and without my permission none of you\'re allowed to enter here."
Rona\'s eyes welled up with tears as she heard the word "Is it bad?" She felt her hopes crumbling around her.
But Garnt quickly added, "Don\'t lose hope, Rona. I have a plan, but I need your help to make it work. We can save your parents, but we must act quickly."
"Everyone, once you leave this place, quickly go to the nearest river and properly wash yourself and I will send further instructions with one of the girls. Until then, don\'t interact with Rona\'s parent." Garnt gave his instructions with a serious look on his face.
With a sense of determination, Garnt began giving Gundo basic instructions. He then led both Rona and Gundo outside the hut, to a nearby river. Once they reached the riverbank, he turned to her with a worried expression.
"Rona and Mother" Garnt said gently, "I need you to trust me. We have to do something that might seem strange, but it\'s necessary to protect your parents. Please, remove your clothes and throw them out."
Rona hesitated, unsure of what was happening, but she saw the urgency in Garnt\'s eyes. Slowly, she began to comply, and Garnt did the same, removing his own clothes.
Both Gundo and Rona went buck naked, while Garnt quickly asked them to join him to clean their bodies.
"Listen, this is a type of disease that easily spread. I\'m surprised Rona didn\'t get this disease," Garnt said and started to clean Gundo body throughly without leaving a single spot.
"I want everyone from your village to be isolated for a few days and anyone that has slight coughing or sneezing, should be sent to a different area."
Rona didn\'t fully understand, but she couldn\'t help but believe Garnt seeing how serious he was.
"And don\'t worry. Just like I said, I won\'t let any of you suffer from this. I know how to deal with this, I just want your support,"
Rona nodded her head, as she witnessed a bar of light coloured substance appearing on his hand.
\'Is he some kind of special breed? How can he do that?\'
She was confused, but she decided not to question himself and show that she is doubting him again, even though she wanted to expeirence being pushed down by him again.
[Due to the emergency, instead of clothing, system has decided to unlock the medical section in Trade and Transaction. Garnt, there are medical soap, but you can only buy two of them for the whole month, so you should keep one with you-]
"And the other one with my mother. I know, Eva." Garnt washed Gundo\'s entire body after applying soap and asked her to rinse off all the soap properly before turning his attention back to Rona.
Normally, Gundo would become a blushing mess if Garnt did touched her like this, even though she was his mother. But right now, she was more concerned about supporting her son that she actually forgot how to get nervous.
She was ready to face anything to help her beloved son, even if it meant putting her life in danger.

"What is this \'Isoniazid\'? It is so expensive. It is the first thing that looks this expensive." Garnt asked in a shocked as he walked over to Rona and touched her back giving her goosebumps.
[It is the most effective modern drug for tuberclosis. Even though both Penicilin and Isoniazid are antibiotics, Penicilin can\'t cure tuberclosis. Since it is a temporary drug that appered for the convinence, it is ten times more expsensive than normal price of penicilin.
It will disappear after you solved this problem.]
Eva explained things to him, but even Garnt with his basic knowledge about the modern world didn\'t manage to understand what she said.
Rona looked at Garnt\'s chest and his abs that were visible, her gaze lingering on the sculpted muscles that brought back memories of what happened inside the cave, but she quickly shook her head and decided to forget those things for now, since Garnt was genuinely trying to help her.
"Rona, you should also be careful. I will make a new settelment in our village for your people, so you shouldn\'t worry about them. Also, you shouldn\'t visit your parent without proper equipments."
Rona nodded her head at his words, and Garnt looked at the woman, who kept running in their direction with so many clothes in two separate carts.
"She is here. I told Ayra to bring us new clothes also we will burn all our old ones, just in case." Garnt poured some water on Rona\'s head and rinsed off all the soap.
Gundo and Rona both wanted to know what this bubbly and fragrant substance was, but even more than that, they wanted to get out of the cold water and return to the village so they could help people.
"Unami is taking care of the other people, so you don\'t have to worry. Baktou is waiting for your orders to quickly close the village if something happens." Ayra said, as she handed over the new clothes to her sister, Rona and Garnt.
But she didn\'t miss Garnt\'s erect cock that kept standing like a proud lion waiting for its prey. She couldn\'t help but get jealous knowing that he was lusting after the other girls and decided to wring out his ball, when they are going to have sex next time.
\'Is it Rona? Or Is it my sister? I don\'t think he will lust after his own mother, so I think it might be Rona.\'
Looking at Rona and Gundo\'s face she thought, but then she noticed both of their faces blushing rather red and their eyes fixed on Garnt\'s cock.
\'Damn it! It looks like they are after his seeds. It looks like I will have to share him in the future, but I feel this pain in my chest when I think about him showing his manly affection to another woman. Also, why is my sister looking at his son like that?\'
[My boy is sorrounded by some hungry cougars. The fun won\'t end for me. I also wanted to see a catfight over a man and this a great chance]
Eva thought with a smile on her mind and decided to ignite some sweet drama in the future, even though Ayra was thinking of ways to prevent such things from happening.
The only clueless person among this group, Garnt suddenly put on his clothes causing all three woman to sigh in disappoinment and they also wore their clothes back.
"It\'s going to be a hard week for all of us, but let\'s not stop our ongoing project. Since the mine is now recovered, we will start the process of collecting the iron ores." Garnt said in a excited tone. "Bloomery is also ready, so we don\'t have to worry about that,"
Everyone expect Rona nodded their heads, and she was also excited to be a part of this new group and discover things, she had never seen before.
