Chapter 63 Return To The Capital City
My name is Leaf Chemist.
I used to be just a regular guy working as a pharmacist in a remote village. One day, I was betrayed by my fiancée, which led me to move my base of operations from the countryside to the city.
I ended up staying with the granddaughter of the granny who took care of me in the village, Mercury Carter-san.
As a member of the adventurer's guild "Divine Gemstone," I met Tai-chan, a Behemoth from the territory of Votslak, and Eileen-san, Granny Merlin's disciple, through quests.
In the previous adventure, I cleared a dungeon that appeared in the forest of my hometown, Abyss Wood. There, I reconciled with my ex-fiancée and returned to the capital city, where I have now come back to...
"It's about time to head back to the capital city."
Sitting right in front of me is Comet Witch Mercury-san. She's older than me.
She has long blonde hair and round glasses that really stand out.
Because I come from the borderlands and lack some common sense.
She is always kind and teaches me common sense.
"Oh, really? It took longer than I expected. It's only a few hours away on foot."
"Well, you see... Your walking speed is really fast..."
"Oh? Is that so?"
"Please stop making that dumbfounded face... sigh..."
We left the village, passed through several towns, and arrived near the capital city after a few days.
"Carriages are slow, aren't they? With my carriage, it's even faster."
"...By the way, what kind of carriage do you have?"
"A unicorn!"
"Wha...!? That's a legendary mythical beast...!"
"Huh? There are plenty of unicorns in the village. There's a ranch there, and they're all over the place."
"HAAAAAAAA...!? A UNICORN RANCHHHHHHH!"
"Yes, I didn't see that in the capital city, but aren't unicorns usually raised as livestock, right?"
Mercury-san holds her head with a tired expression.
Ah! I know!
When her head hurts, at times like this!
I put my hands together.
"[Prescription]!"
My skill, Prescription Skill. It's a skill that I, a pharmacist, can use.
I make medicine using the materials I have on hand. That's basically all it is.
But depending on the skill level, the types of medicine that can be made will vary.
My master... Medicine God Asclepius, could instantly make any kind of medicine.
Any kind means, literally, all the medicines existing in this world.
For an [inexperienced] person like me, that's an impossible feat.
I can only make [very common] medicines.
In a flash, I make the medicine and hand the bottle to Mercury-san.
"Here you go, Mercury-san! It's the usual medicine that's good for headaches!"
"...Thank you, Leaf-kun. This...works well, doesn't it..."
She drinks my homemade medicine in one gulp.
Suddenly, her body shines brightly in seven colors, and the light subsides in an instant.
"How is it?"
"Yeah...as usual...perfect. Amazing...but, but, Leaf-kun."
With an extremely tired expression, she speaks.
"Elixir isn't just a headache medicine."
Elixir. It can heal any serious injury in an instant. Illnesses too.
It's just that kind of common, all-purpose medicine.
"Huh, but it works for headaches, right?"
"Well, yeah! Since it works for all kinds of illnesses, it works for headaches too, right!? But, it's a waste! Don't you think it's a waste to use it for just a headache!?"
"Huh, not at all."
Because it's easy to make, convenient, and cheap!
"Hehe... As expected of Leaf-sama. Blessed by the Medicine God, you're the greatest Pharmacist~♡ Amazing...♡"
The slender-eyed lady is named Eileen-san.
She lives in the Votslak territory ruled by the foolish nobleman who stole my fiance.
She's the one actually governing that territory.
By the way, like Mercury-san, she once trained under Granny Merlin.
Although her magic skills may not be as good as Mercury-san's, she has a special magic called [Spirit Art] that only she can use.
By the way, she has big breasts.
"Eileen, you're praising Leaf-kun a bit too much. I think, we need to teach this kid some common sense."
"...It's pointless. Your breasts is just as pointless."
"Huhhh? I'll kill you!!"
Eileen-san huffs and turns away.
"Leaf-sama is perfect just the way he is. What's wrong with having strong power? He has saved so many with it. It's wonderful."
"But the problem is that he has no common sense despite having such strong powers! We need to teach him some before he causes a real mess."
Just then, a beautiful girl stepped in to calm things down, said "Okay, okay."
Her name was Tai-chan. She used to be a huge tiger-like monster called Behemoth.
She became my servant after various events.
By the way, she can turn into a human.
She has long messy hair and her most distinctive feature is her plump big breasts.
"Leaf-kun, do you only stare at breasts?"
"N-No, that's not true!"
Oh no, it seems like I'm being watched. I need to be careful!
"I welcome it, Leaf-sama. Please come closer and feel free to touch."
"You can do whatever you want to me too, my lord. Even if you suck it."
"That's obviously a bad idea!!!! Jeez, these female foxes leave me no room for carelessness or mistakes!"
Mercury-san growled, showing her guard.
"Huh? But Eileen-san is a human, and Tai-chan is a Behemoth?"
"I know... It's just an analogy! Ugh..."
Mercury-san looked tired and slumped down.
And that's when!
"Hey, want some Elixir to drink?"
"Don't bring out super rare items with a 'just gonna drink some water' attitude!"
These are my friends.
Newly made friends in the capital city.
