Chapter 12 There It Is, I Can See It
"Shall we begin? 'Detoxify (Detoxification)'"
Hmm, at first glance, it seems that only a little discoloration has shrunk. Is it only the detox that works, or does the Healing Magic itself work? Or perhaps, the effect varies with repetition. I'll have to try again.
"'Recover (Healing Spell)', 'Detoxify'. ...Did it move a little more than before? Just like last time, is there a synergistic effect after all? Or hmm..."
While grumbling, I continue with the verification process. Oh, it's not just a process, it's treatment.
"Oh, please wait a moment."
I remembered. Yesterday, I put a cold drink in the inventory. I open the inventory and take out the only drink that was there.
"Oh, it's cold. I see..."
"So, this is the 'Space Attribute Magic'..."
"Is this your first time seeing it?"
"Yes. Usually, people don't show it in public, so I was a bit surprised."
"Just a moment. I'm sure the glass is here..."
This room has a decent price, so they've prepared things like glasses properly. Oh, there they are. Two of them, by chance? No, it's probably because of Seteas-san. He might have prepared them considering us.
I pour into the glass and take a sip. I express that I'm fine. I place a glass in front of Julienne-san and pour.
"If you're thirsty, feel free to have some."
"Yes, thank you... Oh, it's cold."
"It's convenient. I completely forgot, but it's nice that it's still cold."
With this, it seems like even yakitori will be fine.
"I see. Thank you. I'll have some later, then."
"So, do you feel any pain?"
"No, not at all."
"Then shall we resume the 'Detoxify' spell?"
It's only a few millimeters. Mesaja-san's symptoms seem to be more advanced, so this might take some time.
"Well then, next is the 'Middle-Recover'... Oh, it seems there's a synergistic effect after all? In that case, 'Detoxify', and then 'High-Recover' spell. Oh, it might have quite an effect."
"The black mark..."
"Yes. It's getting smaller, right? I told you it would heal."
"Yes."
High Recovery, it's bad. My mana is being taken away completely. It might be better to repeat Detox and Middle.
After about an hour of repetition, when my remaining mana became dangerously low, the darkening on Julienne-san's fingertips began to disappear.
"――Phew. Um, I have a favor to ask."
"Yes, what is it?"
"Could you go to the bathroom and warm your fingertips with hot water?"
"Yes. I'll check it out."
Julienne-san entered the bathroom.
When she came back with a slight delay, her expression was bright. Presumably, her blood circulation improved by warming it with hot water, and it should be safe to say that there was no pain.
"Tatsuma-san."
"Yeah, yeah. Just from that smile, I can tell that it was effective enough."
"Yes. It didn't hurt."
Even though she had a smile on her face, tears were flowing. You can tell without even asking everyone.
This time, by carefully treating it, I somehow understood something. By repeating the "Detox" and "Recover" spells as much as the mana allows, it seems possible to efficiently scatter Oso (Dreadful element) poison.
I don't have the "appraisal" ability like in a story. So, the only way to know if she's completely cured is to check if the pain comes back, like by warming it in hot water.
I started treatment around 8 p.m. with "Display Self-Status." It's already past 10 o'clock now. Maybe I relaxed when I saw Julienne-san's smile, as a silly sound like "growl" comes from my stomach.
"Oh? Come to think of it, I haven't eaten anything."
"That's right. I haven't had dinner yet either."
"In that case, should I ask if we can still have dinner at the inn?"
"Yes, that would be nice if we could."
"...Ah, I forgot."
"Is something wrong?"
"You also need to have your toes checked."
"...I forgot. My toes were also in quite a bad state."
Julienne-san sits in a chair, hugging her right knee.
"Hey, Julienne-san. Um, I can see that, it's visible—"
"Oh, I'm sorry."
I quickly turned my back. I mean, I want to look, but I can't just do that. Being in a shortage of fulfilling relationship period, I'm not used to this, so I react like this instinctively.
If it was a completely unknown woman, I might have ended up looking. I'm kind of perverted in my own way, too. But, I'd rather avoid an awkward situation, so I think this is the right move.
"How's that?"
"Yes, it's all good. The black spots on the back of the nail are gone as well."
"That's a relief. It's a weight off my shoulders."
"Yeah, from tomorrow, I'll have to deal with that pain for a while..."
"Let's go grab a bite to eat—oh, is it okay if I turn around?"
"It's fine."
After that, I had dinner with Julienne-san and asked her to help me find a good job in exchange for the treatment fee. When asked if that was okay, I explained, "I only got paid for five skewers' worth," and convinced her by saying, "You'll understand if you ask Seteas-san."
I am neither the king nor the hero of this country. I am not a church priest or a doctor either. With this ability I happened to acquire, I am just indulging in self-satisfaction. I understand that I can make a lot of money, but I'm sorry for being resented and chased.
Helping one or two people doesn't mean that the poison of Oso disappears. When I came here (to this world), didn't I think? Is it a "Good Situation World Transport" or is it a "Bad Situation World Transport"?
For now, it's not good for me, but it's not bad either. If it becomes a bad situation, I have prepared items in my inventory so that I can eat and drink. Even if I have to escape from this country, I should be able to survive for a while.
Hello, we have other project about someone who has returned from an isekai. The main character is a hero who has defeated the Demon Lord.
