Chapter 204 Activities While Waiting
This is probably the most important person in the shrine club, the room of the head of the shrine department, who is the second person I have met here.
"I have brought Tatsuma-sama."
"Please come in."
Oh, a male voice. A staff member is leaving in front of the door. I opened the door and went inside.
It's like a sense of déjà vu. I feel like I've seen this somewhere before. Ah, that's right. No mistake.
"I am in charge of this shrine department, my name is Jagrute Tilraida."
So big. About the same height as me, but also big horizontally. If it were in that world, it might be the same size as a mascot costume? In terms of width, it's not losing to Jam-san, no, it might even be more than him. Seriously.
"I understand. I'm aware of being overweight. You see, here at this shrine, I'm the one who has to do most of the healing, so, uh, every day I have to treat many people, and my mana consumption and recovery can't keep up, so I have no choice but to use mana honey regularly, so it's come to this..."
"Mana honey, huh?"
"Yes. It's a flower nectar that promotes mana recovery, but it's also too nutritious..."
I see, like mana tea or something. That's not as sweet though.
"Oh, thinking about it that way makes sense. Can I lend your hand?"
"Yes, that's fine."
I chanted a spell as if shaking hands.
"'Regenerate (regeneration spell).' How's that?"
Then the head of the shrine department's body glowed with heat.
"Wow."
When the light subsided, in front of me stood a normal-shaped young man. His clothes looked like they were about to fall off. His pants were even halfway down.
As I thought, when the 'Display Self-Status Mystery System' recognized obesity caused by mana honey as an illness, I thought it might work. Since it can cure cavities, this should be fine.
"I'm glad, you're a man."
"Huh?"
"How about changing your clothes?"
"Oh? My body feels light."
"You lost weight."
"Huh?"
The head of the shrine department seemed unaware of what had happened to him.
He used to be as wide as Jam-san, but now he's slimmed down to about Seteas-san's size, so his clothes would naturally fall off. Jam-san isn't really fat, he's just big.
I've sometimes wondered if Jam-san is actually a costume. I've casually checked his back for a zipper before.
Oh, it was in my inventory. I had this hand mirror because I use it for shaving.
"Can you take a look at this?"
"Where did you get this from? Could it be from that Space Attribute user? Wait, who is this?"
The comedian from the west also has a perfect Tsukkomi sense that at least gives a passing grade.
After some time, Jagrute-san finally seemed to have understood the current situation and went to a private room. However, it seems he didn't have any clothes to change into. So, he reluctantly put on the staff's clothes and came back.
"I'm sorry for the rush."
"No problem. It was more threatening to your lifespan than Oso (Dreadful element) poison, so I just..."
"Thank you for your concern. Even if I could move my wings, it was definitely too heavy to fly..."
"Oh, I almost forgot."
"What is it?"
"I'm sorry once again. Your hand, please."
"Here, please."
"'Dis Recover', 'Full Recover', and so on. With this, you can definitely fly."
"Yes?"
"The treatment for Poison Oso is complete."
"Yes?"
I wonder what the head of the shrine, who is in charge of all the treatment, is spacing out about. Failroud-san from the security department and Jillietta-san are both amazed.
"By the way, Tatsuma-sama."
"What is it?"
"If you don't mind me asking, what is the level of your Healing Attribute?"
"Well, the spell I used just now was a regeneration spell. Do you understand that?"
Since Jagrute-san is the highest-ranking person in the shrine, he must have read enough literature to know at what level and with what magic he can use.
"What? N-no way?"
"Yes. Please think of it as that no way."
"Oh my god..."
Having the same Healing Attribute is helpful because we somehow understand each other.
"By the way, Count Tilraida."
"You can call me Jagrute, or just Jag, if you prefer."
"Alright, Jag it is."
"Yes, what can I do for you?"
"Don't push yourself too hard. What level is your Healing Attribute?"
"I am at level 2, while the other shrine priests and shrine maidens are at level 1."
"I see. At level 2, you can probably treat fractures and alleviate pain significantly, right?"
"Yes, that's correct. I can use intermediate healing spells. It's definitely useful for people who can't take strong medicine due to their job or position. I apply it to myself every day as well."
I see. Those strong painkillers mentioned by Jillietta-san. They must have strong side effects, that's why.
"Right. At level 2, you can also use regular detoxification spells, correct?"
"Yes, that's right."
"Did you know that it can be used for Oso poison treatment?"
"No, I've tried it. But even using mana honey for half a day, there was hardly any effect."
Maybe it's working to some extent, even if he can't see it with his eyes. Visible vs. invisible. Is it different for detoxifying poisons in water or food?
"Hmm, I see. Maybe it's because I was above level 3 when I felt the effect. Even though I recited the detoxification spell once, it was only as effective as a hair's width. Maybe the detoxification spell is only level 1, so it won't be very effective until you reach a higher level..."
"I see. That makes sense."
"Anyway, after this, serious cases will be brought in by the security department. I want you to record who is severely ill and who has fully recovered."
"Got it."
"While I'm here, no one should die from Oso poison. That's why I came to this shrine thinking that."
"Yes, I understand."
"Okay, to raise your level, the best magic is the highest level. If it's level 2, then yes, using intermediate healing spells a lot. This is the shortcut."
"Wow, ...such a secret..."
"That's right. This is a secret technique. If you reveal it, you'll have a terrible time, okay?"
"Y-yes, I understand."
"Anyway, I will cure the Oso poison. After that, please cast the intermediate healing spell."
"Alright, please start preparing."
The shrine maidens are preparing beds in the hall for the people who will be brought in by the priests.
'Got it.'
Everyone hurriedly runs. Jag-san also took something out of his pocket and looked at me.
"I will also start preparing."
