We Drank the Trial Medicinal Wine

The aftertaste of the wine was bad… It was a combination of bitterness and overly strong sweetness…

Was this because of the medicine?

But the medicine that we had concocted was not supposed to taste like this… I suppose you really couldn’t tell what the outcome would be until you tasted it.

After taking one sip, the aftertaste stayed in your mouth for quite a long time.

“Hmm… I suppose it is not undrinkable. But compared to yesterday… What do you think, Sebastian?”

“Indeed… As everyone has already said, it is quite bitter. One would not say that it is good.”

“Yes. But then again, this wine is not necessarily made to taste good. What about the effects?”

“As for that, it will take some time before you can feel it…”

It seemed that all of the servants here had tasted it as well.

Now that I looked, Ms. Lyra was holding a glass of wine.

I guess it was necessary for everyone to taste and feel the effects.

Unlike the previous one, this wine was supposed to have health benefits.

While there was nothing wrong with having wine that tasted good, the effect was far more important.

And so we did as Ms. Helena said and waited quietly.

“…Hmm?”

“What is it, father?”

After waiting for some time, Mr. Ekenhart tilted his head and muttered.

Ms. Claire noticed this and looked at him curiously.

“Well…I feel as if my body has grown a little warmer. But I barely drank anything, and I am not drunk…”

“…Indeed, now that you mention it…”

“My face is also starting to feel hot…”

“Yes. I do feel a warmth in my body.”

Now that he had said it, others started to think they felt it as well.

It was such a small change that you wouldn’t notice it until someone told you.

As there was alcohol in it, it made sense that your temperature would rise. However…

We also hadn’t drunk that much.

In the first place, I didn’t seem to get drunk, no matter how much wine I drank. And so my body temperature hadn’t risen at all in Range village.

And yet, I could feel something. Was it…

“Is this the effects of the medicine…?”

“Yes. That is correct. Through mixing it with the medicine, the magic energy in your body will be vitalized, and it will improve your physical condition.”

“Hmm… So it is similar to the medicinal herbs we had before?”

“Yes, Sebastian. That is right.”

Ms. Helena nodded as she answered Mr. Ekenhart.

Sebastian asked her a question as well, and she nodded.

Indeed, before concocting it, the idea had been to make something that revitalized your magic energy and distributed nutrition to your entire body in order to improve your health.

I suppose that was what made our bodies warmer. 

“So that means you can keep the effects of the medicinal herbs, and they are not weakened at all by mixing them into the wine?”

“Yes. I do believe so.”

Ms. Helena answered my question.

“There are not many things that affect magic energy… This is the first time this has been done with wine. As for how effective it truly is, we will have to keep testing… However…”

“This is certainly something very good. Something that does not affect your magic energy in a negative way. At the very least, what I can not feel in my body is not a rejection.”

“Yes. However, affecting your magic energy too much…can have troublesome effects as well. We still have to be careful at this point.”

“Hmm…yes. What do you think, Mr. Takumi?”

“Me? Well… I do not know much about magic energy… Of course, one should not drink too much of these things that are related to health. Or anything, really…”

“That’s true… Then we will have to set a limit, so that no one drinks too much.”

“Yes. I think that at most, one glass a day would be best.”

Even in Japan, there were limits for how much of a health drink you should drink in one day.

Well, it wasn’t so much as a limit, but a suggestion, that drinking more than one a day might actually have negative effects instead.

After all, I really did not know much about magic energy. And so I could not make such irresponsible claims.

It would be best to only drink a little for now, and see what happens.

“At least we won’t have to worry about Claire drinking too much and acting like a fool.”

“Father! I told you, that will not be happening again! I will be very careful!”

Mr. Ekenhart teased her, and Ms. Claire retaliated frantically.

“Hahaha. Well, nevermind that. Mr. Takumi, in order to make it clear how effective it is…could you continue to make more of this…medicinal wine?”

“Yes. Milina and I will work together to continue to make the medicine for the wine.”

We would need a decent amount in order to test it. I expected as much.

Well, it was true that it was a lot of work, and so we wouldn’t be able to make that much, but…

Milina and I should still be able to manage it.

“That was a rather fruitful dinner.”

After the tasting was finished, we drank some tea and relaxed.

Mr. Ekenhart seemed to feel that a lot had been accomplished.

As for Liza, she had joined Tilura in hugging and petting Leo.

After a good meal and some delicious juice, she was in a pleasant mood.

Ms. Claire and Ms. Anne seemed to be discussing something, but it was too quiet for me to hear. There was something a little suspicious about their air, and my instincts told me to not get involved.
