After the uvula moved approximately 6 times, all the liquid in the vial disappeared.
Ronika opened the matter calmly.
“It takes some time for the drug’s effects to appear. But there is no place to lie down… Please take off even those thick clothes and cover them.”
“… Of course.”
The white-haired old man did as Ronica said, took off his clothes and covered his granddaughter Andro.
An anxious silence continued.
Ronica has worried eyes.
A restless old man.
A pale girl.
“Keyu~”
I sighed a little at that sight.
The truth is not enough.
It takes approximately tens of minutes to several hours for the pestora treatment to take effect.
However, the girl named Andro, who has collapsed, is about to be eaten by pestora and die. The old man said that it had been two weeks since he became ill, but this was no different from symptoms he had already endured for about two months.
The reason is simple.
This is because the body is weak.
Andro is currently going back and forth between life and death. Some additional action is needed.
Otherwise, you might die.
The proof is that the black spots on the roots of the nails extend all the way up. Those are the terminal symptoms of pestora. This means that it is not strange even if you die right away.
‘Nothing good will come from delaying.’
Let me help you a little.
fault.
“Oh. Black guy?”
“What! What a baby animal. Get away from my granddaughter!!”
The old man immediately tried to pull me away, but Ronika defended me just as desperately.
“Grandpa!! Wait. The nigger is trying to help. First, please keep quiet and watch.”
“… what? Didn’t that animal just arbitrarily climb on top of my granddaughter? It must be removed immediately!!”
“The person who created that cure was a black man! Please keep an eye on me!!”
That’s right.
Behaving noisily.
‘Enhanced regeneration.’
ᛃᚨᛋᚾᛖ ᚨᚷᚾᚷᚨ.
‘Accelerated healing.’
ᚷᚨᛋᚳᛟᛋ ᚴᛁᚢ
‘Disruption, acceleration, division, acceleration.’
ᛒᚢᚾᛋᛁᛖᛚ, ᚢᚴᛅᛋᛅᛉᛋᛁᛋᛏ
Flash! Flash! Flash!
While Ronica was blocking the old man, yellow and blue lights flashed several times.
Just this alone will make the medicine work much better.
“What is this light?… Magic? How can a baby animal use magic!?”
“Please calm down!! The Negro is currently being treated as best as he can. look! Your complexion is already coming back!!”
“… … what?… .”
And yet.
The body is already severely damaged.
To fix this, you need to use magic of at least 6 stars.
Originally, it was impossible, but… .
‘Create circuit.’
He forcibly created a new circuit in his body and forcibly grew his mana heart.
Wow~
A soft light emanated from the body.
A countercurrent flow is felt along with a loud throbbing.
This is because a new passage was temporarily created.
“Kuhhh… … .”
I don’t like it because it’s hard on the body, but wouldn’t it be a shame if my disciple died after doing it this way?
So let me help you just this once.
Make a full recovery.
‘revival.’
ᛋᚩᛋᛖᚾ.
Faaah!!
Golden waves.
“Wow… … .”
“Huh… .”
It seeped into every part of Andro’s body and began to heal his burned skin.
This old man is blessed.
Because I am much better than most wizards who specialize in medicine.
This should be enough.
As I restored the mana circuit, I helplessly jumped onto Ronica’s shoulder again.
Soon, the girl named Andro blinked.
“Off… .”
“Ae, Andro!! Are you okay? Are you coming to your senses!!”
“No, please! What if I yell right in front of the patient!! If I get scared and fall again, will you take responsibility?”
“Ugh… I’m sorry.”
So after a while.
After absorbing the drug, Andro lifted his eyelids with difficulty, his face slightly flushed.
The guy who opened his eyes made eye contact with the old man.
“Harabeoji?… .”
“ANDRO!!… How do you feel? Are you feeling better?”
“Ah… I feel like my head has become clearer. It hurts… I just felt warm… … Ugh. My throat is burning… ”
“ANDRO!!”
He is a very worried grandfather.
The symptoms are improving somewhat.
Deteriorated skin and black spots on nails are disappearing in real time.
They say that if you drink water and sleep well, you will be completely cured.
“Captain!! I brought water.”
“Nice timing!!”
Just then, Rowen brought a whole large bottle of water.
As soon as Ronica took the bottle, she took it to Andrew and helped him raise his upper body.
“ character. Drink this and rest. I’ll help you.”
“Ah… Thank you.”
Gulp.
He was so thirsty that he emptied half of his huge bottle of water. Then, with a lighter face, he took a few breaths and smiled a little.
“Thank you all. I think I’m feeling better now.”
“Ha. Haaa… Thank goodness. I’m so glad. Everything will be okay now. Take a good rest. This money will protect you… .”
“… I love you always. Grandfather.”
“Andro… … … .”
The child and the old man hugged each other, and Ronica watched with a happy smile.
A scene worth watching.
Is this true love?
I think I know a little bit about Ronika’s feelings.
‘I don’t know why, but it looks good.’
*
“It’s shameless, but I’d like to owe you something.”
The old man followed him to Venus headquarters, found an empty room, and put his granddaughter to sleep. This was because he could not find a suitable place to stay at this time of night.
After that, he entered Ronika’s room, bowed his head and apologized in person.
“He looked ugly. I apologize for all my actions… I don’t know how to repay this favor. If you need money-”
“That’s it. Originally, I brought it out to share it with sick people. And the treatment is very expensive, right? I know you have no ability to repay, so use that money to eat delicious food and rest.”
“Huh… How can there be such a kind-hearted young lady?”
They offered to give compensation, but Ronika did not listen any further and refused to give physical thanks.
Without even knowing what the old man’s identity was.
“But… Did it seem like I had no ability to repay? Is this me?”
“Yes?… .”
ha.
I think I understand.
I thought I saw it somewhere.
This old man is definitely not an ordinary guy.
The owner of the Goliath caravan.
Hysterion.
If what I know of him is true, his hands are big enough to chew up even the most noble people.
So huge that it could buy up a country.
Of course, it may not be that much at this point, but even now, the wealth will be enough to make even the richest people take a step back with a sigh.
It’s an inspiration I once saw from afar when I was a mercenary… It was around this time that he showed unconventional behavior.
Was it really because of the granddaughter’s death?
If so, there is no need to worry.
Because at least people are good.
Anyway, Ronica has now been captured by that guy.
Should this also be called an ability?
Hysterion muttered as he glanced around the building instead of talking to Ronica.
“… You live in a nice place. I don’t think I was raised with respect, but I can give without hesitation and I found a house like this. It’s dangerous.”
“ What do you mean suddenly?”
“Kkekekekekekeul… no. Just listen carefully. More than that, I want to hear your story.”
Perhaps because he regained his senses, Hysterion began to look into Ronica with the authority that comes from his years of experience.
And soon, the gaze fell on Ronika’s shoulder.
Our eyes met.
“Hmm… .”
Searching eyes.
You must be curious.
Because he suddenly used magic to save his dying granddaughter.
But try to aim for 100 days.
You won’t be able to find out.
“Korororong~”
“Oh. Nigga, are you sleepy? I’ll take you to bed. ah. And I’m sorry. That’s all for today’s story.”
“Ho… So then.”
I escape from here.
Goodbye.
You guy.
“I don’t know… .”
I left the old man’s exclamation behind and headed to bed with Ronica, and Hysterion also reluctantly returned to where his granddaughter was.
*
“Can I stay here a little longer? Because my granddaughter still needs stability.”
As morning dawned, Hysterion came to Ronica and asked her to stay at Venus longer.
The kind-hearted Ronika reluctantly nodded.
“Keu… Then just don’t make a fuss. I can’t take care of you because I have to go sell medicine.”
“Hmm. Are you selling a cure?”
“Yes, yes~ I have to go, so goodbye.”
“Hmm… .”
A look with some meaning.
Although she wasted a little time, Ronica left her hysteria behind and went outside with the gang members.
So again today, I took a seat at the crude stall.
“Pestora cure sold for 10 gold~”
There were a few people waiting since the morning to see if the rumor had spread. It was such a profitable business that in just a few days, it would catch up with Rosetta’s existing fortune.
“It’s clear that this treatment is effective, right?”
“Of course! If you take the medicine and sleep well, you will feel better soon.”
“… Then just give me 5.”
“5? I’ll give it to you right away!”
Rich nobles even buy extras, so much so that the amount of medicine they bring is not enough.
If you tear off a single leaf of an herb, it takes a week for it to grow again, so it is not enough to maintain this condition. So, I bought more materials from the exchange and had them make the cure.
Thanks to this, most of the Venus organization members had to focus on producing a cure.
“Captain~ I made more treatments.”
“Thank you! And then take a gold coin and buy something expensive and delicious as a group on the way back.”
“Ugh~ Captain! They say they know our hearts well.”
There was nothing to worry about.
Exclusive sales of therapeutic products.
Venus gets hit hard.
Venus’ wealth increased to the point where she collected all the city’s gold coins.
But as always, with big money comes risk.
They just set up a stand like this and spend hundreds of gold units, so who wouldn’t want to covet it?
Of course, in the slums, no one knows Venus, so they usually don’t attack her, but it’s a different story for those who come from the center of the city or outlying areas.
They set their sights on Venus’ cure, and the lord of the city was the first to move.
“Hey. Don’t you know that selling unproven drugs is illegal? Our lord will catch you who are doing business illegally.”
“Yes?”
Dozens of guards.
They quickly surrounded the stall and started making threats.
“All treatments are seized. All materials and production methods have to be verified, so don’t talk nonsense and follow me.”
Completely reckless.
But it is not wrong.
Clearly, the kingdom’s laws make it illegal to sell unproven drugs.
“Like that. Venus is in big trouble too.”
“They say the lord is greedy. I guess it’s true. They’re just trying to steal the cure.”
Residents nearby were also whispering as if they were worried. This is because the crisis of Venus, who brought peace to the slums, is not far from their crisis.
But what should I do?
This is a slum.
That’s why Venus’ most powerful man, Brown Bear, stepped forward and warned.
“This is a slum that has never been cared for by those great laws. Can I interpret this as saying that you are going to war with us now?”
“ha? War?”
“I will warn you. If you touch Venus, you won’t be safe either.”
At Rowen’s words, the members of the Venus organization who had been waiting nearby stood to the side with great vigor.
There are less than 10 members of the Venus organization here, but they have experienced a war of death and death, and are braver and more brutal than the guards.
And if reinforcements from headquarters are brought in, the security here can be wiped out in an instant.
Venus is never weak.
However, the security guard did not back down and pushed back, as if he had faith.
“Are you confident in saying that? Considering the seriousness of the current situation, my lord is even considering sending private troops. If you do not do our bidding, you will have to fight with an army of 200 men.”
“Army?… Is it sane to send troops to slums?”
“It’s none of my business. I just follow the lord’s orders.”
surely… .
This is difficult. No matter how powerful Venus is, it is just a cumbersome and somewhat large organization compared to the military.
“What should I do… .”
“Captain… I guess it won’t work. If you are dragged along like this, it will be the end. It might be better to handle the security now and run away.”
“Ugh… .”
Venus’ biggest crisis since Rosetta.
It would be quite scary. The lord threatened that he could even dispatch an army.
This is also not a level that Ronica can solve.
Haha~
It’s my turn to step forward again.
It’s not difficult.
Just assassinate one person and that’s enough. It’ll cause chaos in the city, but I’m not nice enough to let anyone mess with my money.
Should we go see the face of this guy called Youngju? .
At that time, I heard a majestic voice.
“Stop!!”
chin! plod along.
At the same time, dozens of knights armed with full plate armor and a white-haired old man walked majestically between the guards and Venus.
‘That guy… .’
Hysterion.
It was the old man that Ronica helped last night.
“Who, who are you?”
The guard and Ronica looked at him in confusion, but the old man did not blink an eye and approached the guard captain with his sturdy physique.
At the same time, the armed knights at the top followed Hysterion intimidatingly as if he was guarding him.
“This treatment is a product that I, Hysterion, have personally verified. How dare you criticize such a product and try to take it away by force. I don’t think I can just wait and see.”
“What is that… .”
Hysterion lowered his head right in front of the guard captain and brought them to eye level. And then he opened his mouth in a low, grumpy voice.
“Hey. soldier. I want to see the lord’s face, so take me away right away.”
I guess… .
It seemed like there was no need for me to step forward.
