We Finished Concocting
“…Is it ready?”
“Hmm. Yes. I think it is? Leo, I think it’s ready.”
“Wou.”
It seemed like quite a lot of time had passed since we started, and the paste had finally turned into powder.
But if Leo hadn’t created the wind, it would have likely taken much longer.
“It’s very black…”
“Yes…”
“Wuff?”
We looked at the powdered medicine inside of the bowls.
I didn’t know if it was because the colors had mixed, or it was the effect, but…the powder had become black.
Milina and I looked at each other and then took a pinch of the powder and tasted it.
“Milina…”
“Mr. Takumi…”
“It’s not sour anymore!”
“Yes! It has almost no taste at all!”
“Wuff!”
Unlike the paste, the medicine in my mouth had almost no sourness.
Where had it gone… I couldn’t help but wonder. But perhaps that was how concocting worked.
There was magic energy in it, and perhaps the properties changed while it dried… I would just assume that was the case for now.
While Milina and I looked surprised, Leo barked happily.
“Ms. Lyra, please try some. You too, Leo.”
“Yes, very well.”
“Wuff.”
And so I made Ms. Lyra and Leo taste some of it as well.
“While there is a faint sourness, I doubt it will affect the wine much.”
“That’s true. What a relief…”
“Yes. I was worried about what would happen if it remained the same.”
“Now we just need to see the effect…”
“Wuff? Wuff-wuff. Wuff.”
“Hmm? Leo. You can tell?”
“Wuff.”
Now that we had Ms. Lyra’s approval regarding the taste, we just needed to confirm the effect.
If the effect had been preserved, then this would be a success. If not, then we would have to try out different methods.
Succeeding on both taste and potency was hard.
As I thought of such things, Leo started barking at me.
Uh… You don’t know what effect they have, but the herbs haven’t lost it…?
“You can really tell that, Leo?”
“Wuff!”
“Mr. Takumi, what is Leo saying?”
“Leo says that…the effect of the herbs hasn’t been lost at all. Do Silver Fenrirs know such things?”
“Well, it would not be odd for Silver Fenrirs to be able to tell.”
“I see… She was able to differentiate the wine, after all.”
Leo looked quite smug about it, but I was still surprised…
Well, if the restorative herbs were affected by magic energy, then maybe the nutritious herbs were also affected.
And as a Silver Fenrir, Leo might be more sensitive to such things.
“So, I guess this is a success then?”
“Wuff.”
Leo nodded to me.
“So the method wasn’t wrong after all!”
“It looks like it. That’s good. That we were able to succeed with a basic concoction.”
Milina was very happy to hear Leo’s answer.
Because if this had been a failure, we would then have to test out other methods.
There were other ways of doing it, and most of them were quite advanced for beginners like us.
So I doubted that we would be able to test all of them… So this was quite a relief.
Though, it was still tiring and took a lot of time…
“So you succeeded. Then perhaps you should leave the rest of the herbs to Milina?”
“Just her?”
Ms. Lyra saw that we had succeeded with the medicine.
And she suggested that I let Milina process the rest of the herbs.
“…Well, there isn’t that much left. Do you think you can do it, Milina?”
“…I will manage… Yes, I will do my best!”
“I will help by creating a wind.”
While Milina hesitated at first, she nodded in agreement.
Judging by how much remained, she would only need to do it twice. And if Ms. Lyra was helping her, she would surely be fine.
“But Ms. Lyra…are you going to use magic?”
“No, I don’t need magic to help with a little wind.”
“Oh. Yes, I see.”
I suppose she could just use a sheet of paper or something to do that.
While it would take time, if the wind did not need to be strong, then anyone could do it.
“In that case, please excuse me. I will deliver this to Ms. Helena.”
“Yes. Thank you.”
“Thank you for the help, Milina.”
“Wuff.”
I picked up the bowl and stood up.
Milina had dumped her medicine into it, and had now started on a new batch.
And so I left them in the drawing room and headed to the kitchen.
“Excuse me… Ms. Helena, are you busy right now?”
“Ah, Mr. Takumi. I’m very sorry. We are almost finished with lunch!”
“Oh, well you don’t have to stop.. I just came to tell her that I finished concocting the medicine. Please give this to her.”
“Certainly!”
“I won’t bother you any longer. Leo, let’s go.”
“Wuff!”
When we entered the kitchen, the cooks were rushing around busily, as they were preparing lunch.
It seemed like once again, I had disturbed them at a busy hour.
And so I talked to the cook who noticed me, and left the bowl for Ms. Helena before leaving.
If I stayed, then I would only get in their way.
“Now, we finished what we had to do… What now?”
“Wuff? Wuff-wuff?”
“That’s right. We should go to the dining hall and wait. Lunch will be ready soon, so they won’t have to call us…”
Sword training was after lunch, and so I had nothing to do right now. And so Leo suggested that we go to the dining hall first.
She was probably hungry, now that she had smelled the food from the kitchen.
While the food wouldn’t be prepared any faster if we went to the dining hall, I understood why she was impatient.
Besides, they wouldn’t have to send someone to call us… And so I took Leo, who wagged her tail happily, and went towards the dining hall.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
