I Shall Survive Using Potions!

Kaoru was confused.

The story is different.Yes, it is different from what she heard from Celes.

When she noticed that the story was different, Kaoru thought.

Oh, this, Ceres is the weird one(Kaoru)

I got an answer instantly without any other information and without reconfirming.

Reason for that is simple. Well, of course, there is a perfect reason to convince anyone.

Thats because its Celes.How is it, perfect? There is no room to doubt.

I thought it was strange.Even though the hunter gets life threatening injuries, no one casts healing magic.Nobody will sell potions.

Everyone makes a fuss at the lower level potion and middle level potion I used.

Celes clearly said:Magic, monsters and hunters exist

So I thought that hunter is an equal to adventurer. Well, that was not so far off.

There are certainly ferocious beasts called monsters.

The problem is magic.

There was magic in this world. That was true, as Celes said.

However what I thought wasThere are magicians and clerics at hunters party, using attack magic, auxiliary magic, recovery magic, etc.

or I use my magic item or a medium as a catalyst to cast magicOr something like that.

Yes, Hunter and Hunter Guild play a similar role as Adventurerand Adventurer Guildlike the story on earth, such as material collection, mission, escort request, etc.

However, there is no magic.There is no magic at all!

The battle is all physical. Using spear, sword, axe, bow and arrow, various others.

It is completely the same as the history of the earth.

Magic is something that some countries research, and a scholar learn it for a life-time. Until just before the death of old age, all they can do is:

I can make a few ml of water from my hand

or light a candle with the fire from the fingertips

That was magic in this world, the number of scholar that can use it is only a few in ten of thousands !!

Celes, why did you say there was magicif its only that kind of level !!!

Ha ha ha

Certainly, it seems that there is no magic what was practically used.

For example, the ability for dragon to breath fire.

The ability for the dragon to fly with that kind of body and wings.

The invincible defense power of the dragon from its scale.

Its all a dragon! miserable!!

That is information that I heard variously from the hunters.

Treatment was like Medieval Earth: drinking medicine made from herbal medicine, medicine for fracture, splints with big scar with needle and thread.

Of course, there is no potion in this world.

And conclusion.

I GONE AND DONE IT NOW.

A magical drug of miracle that doesnt exist in this world.

The curative effect of wonder.A helpless little girl without any history behind can build.

I wonder what happen will if this info get out?

Lets get away for the time being.

Next morning.The hunter guilds main hall.

At one side of one wall is the reception desk. Thefood and drink corner is on the other side.There is a kitchen in the back.

The office work of the guild seems to be on the upper floor. So all staff members are sleeping there.

And this main hall on the first floor.It is in a chaotic state, which has not been cleaned up from yesterdays stupid event yet.

Some hunters awake and suffer from headache, some are still standing at the table, some are sleeping on the floor, etc.

Kaoru was sleeping at a corner of the wall. After waking up, she cleans up the bed.

Yes, its only bed to clean up.Food service corner?I dont know such a thing.

By the way, as a proper Japanese adult, Kaoru always work on time or 5 minutes sooner, she cant stand being loose in time. She had asked Celes to make a watch.

Its not a brand name watch but it wont break even if you hit with a steel pole.It can withstand water pressure up to 100 m.

Solar rechargeable so there is no need to worry about running out of batteries.

Anyway, it is made by goddess.

The display time is in accordance with the rotation of this world, and of course there is also an alarm clock, so I wont oversleep.

I didnt drink alcohol, so I had plenty of time to think after collecting information last night.

Conclusion.Get away from here quickly!

Thats why, after I cleaned up my bed in the morning.

I said my thanks to the kitchen staff and various people. If I have enough time, I will have a look around the city and run away but only the idea is sweet.

Apparently I had been marked during the night.

I caught it as soon as I finished clearing up the bed.

Brat, areyouKaoru?(Soldier) (Kaoru to iu no wakisamaka)

I was late

Five men armed with armor and sword. Theres one man with slightly better equipment that seems to be a leader.

This is a gang group, working under a powerful person and name themself security guards.

Last night, I found someone who wasnt very drunk and asked various things about this town.

Information is money, information is life.

So, the lord of this town and some villages in the vicinityis a baron. He seems to be a typical aristocracy that raise the heavy tax, love money and do any necessary for career advancement. And all citizen arround here hate this lord.

Well, I can hardly imagine the aristocrats to be liked by the commoners.

Baron is the lowest aristocrat except for the knight which is the last ranking and cant govern land.

His family were his wife, two sons and one daughter.

He knew about what happened last night, he was delighted about the opportunities for money making in his land and this was

5 soldiers for one girl, isnt this too much?

Well, maybe theyre wary of hunters getting in the way and me trying to escape?

What do you want? I have been told by my mother that I shouldnt talk with strangers even if they give me candy(Kaoru)

Na~(Soldier)

A man who seems to be a leader staring at Kaoru.

The lord calling, come quietly!(Soldier)

But Im not a citizen here. I will obey the lord at where I live

But why do I have to obey someone else who has nothing to do with me?

For me he is nothing than a lord of an unknown land.

He is an unknown person, he is just trying to bring a girl to his house, and even letting his subordinates do it, not he himself (Kaoru)

Too much words, blood rise above the mens head.

This this brat (Soldier)

The soldier raises his voice, hunters begin to notice and start gathering around.

Chi~, come!(Soldier)

Ah(Kaoru)

The soldier grips Kaorus hand, and forcibly pulling her out of the guild.

Even if the Hunters want to stop, but the opponent are soldiers who is under the direct control of the lord, they are moving by orders of the lord.

Nobody could do anything, only standing to see the men take Koaru away.

(Well, isnt right now a good time to escape?) (Kaoru)

But for some reason, Kaoru doesnt escape, is she is worried that she will be killed or afraid of the soldiers? is she waiting for a chance to escape, Or

Kaoru gently lifted the edge of her mouth (T.N: Grind* or Smirk*)

Oh, soldier, please dont touch that!

Kaoru began to follow the soldiers quietly by herself, she asked the leader who grabbed her left hand so.

Ah. This? what is this ?(Soldier)

Since tKaoru began to follow him, the leader now loose his power a little. He only hold Kaoru lightly while keeping his guards instead of dragging her arround. As he heard Kaoru say that, he asked back.

Its expensive, It cost more than a few gold coins(Kaoru)

The Kaoru showed him the watch and said so.

A few gold coins!(Soldier)

When he looks closely, its an unusual jewelry item that he has not seen before.The man smirks.

If its such an important thing, Ill keep it.(Soldier)

The man forcibly took away the wrist watch from the Kaoru ignored Kaorus complain, and put it to his pocket. Kaoru becomes sadly depressed.

(Well, its an extraordinary income. Of course he will act like that) (Kaoru)

And the leader stopped smiling. We arrivedat a manor house.

Although among aristocrats, Baron is the lowest except knight. He shouldnt have enough money to build a manor like this. And was it necessary to have this prosperous appearance?

Kaoru was brought into the house and was guided to a place like a reception room.

The soldiers handed Kaoru over to the servants in front of the room and left.

We have brought Kaoru-sama(Servant)

An employee who takes over Kaoru told the interior, and bring Kaoru into the room.

In the room, there are two young man one around 20 years old and another one around 16 years old, a girl around 13-14 years old. A fat man seems to be the baron himself and a wife-like woman.

It may be due to the luxury life and lack of exercise that everyone is a bit overweight or is it a genetic? Everyones face seems round

However, I remember the situation and keep that comment in my head.

You finally came, Kaoru(Baron)

The baron smiles.No, it feels somewhat disgusting.

However, this is a big service.After all, a nobles family welcomes a commoner citizen.

Moreover, this baron is reknown as someone who doesnt treat commoners well.

Im graceful for your invitation, Baron-sama(Kaoru)

Kaoru return words with courtesy. she remember this when she watch the movie before.

Ho ho, this is

Sit down there, welcome to our mansion(Baron)

Baron is quite surprised with Kaorus courtesy but still remember to have a full smile and tries to sweet talk with Kaoru.

Baron got a report last night. A Hunters party got attacked by brown bear and one male hunter is heavy injured. Well, its not something he care about. But the report alsosays that theres a magical medicine to cure the heavy wound in an instant.

Besides, that medicine was brought by a little girl who seems to have no back up.

He doesnt really believe it. But what if its true ? It will be an opportunity to gain a huge amount of money, no, it isnt just that. he will be promoted. A high rank like Marquis will not just be a dream anymore!

A drug that instantly recovers those who are about to die.

Just thinking, how much money will the aristocrat who has been injured during the fighting or accident willing to pay, or he may even add conditions for appealing

He may even appeal to the royals. He might be promoted. A high rank like Marquis will not just a dream anymore!

More fortune is that girl appeared in his territory!Luck is smiling with him.And right now, that girl is in front of his eyes. Without being afraid, she returns with a courtesy thanks and sits down.

He heard that there were four medicines. Not just one, she had four, and she tried to sell it at a ridiculous low price.

That means that there will be more medicines and they are easy to obtain.

If he can get the recipe, production means and monopolize the recipe for that medicine!

Usually, he will use force to get it. But this time is troublesome, what if this girl doesnt have sufficient information or she dies easily with tortune.

Besides, it will be trouble for the producer mean if this girl turns out to be a daughter of a doctor. If any harm come to her, her father may not co-op with him.

So for now, its a good idea to treat her in a friendly manner and to get the info.

This girl is only a daughter of a commoner, but he tells his wife and children to treat her gently, so it would be fine.

Thats what Kaorus guess from the barons mood. And it was roughly correct.

While enjoying tea and expensive sweets for a while. The Baron entered the main subject while suppressing his impatient heart.

By the way, Kaoru, that medicine that you had, Where did you get that, did you get it directly from the person who made it?(Baron)

It finally come. Kaoru already prepared the answer for that question beforehand

Ah, I made it myself(Kaoru)

Ee~e!!! (Barons family)

Not only the baron, but also his families when heard the story beforehand gave a surprised voice.

Made it by yourself (Baron)

Yes, my father who was a pharmacist lived in the mountains with abundant materials.

And I have been making medicine and studying it all the time.

Because my father passed away, I came to this town.

It was about 5 years old that I started living in the mountains, and I can not understand the city at all(Kaoru)

The baron was about to collapse with too much pleasure.

Producer of medicine! A girl without any family left or anyones back up!

Manufacturing method that hasnt leaked anywhere yet!!

Well, can you make that medicine here (Baron)

To the little trembling Baron, Kaoru responds quietly.

No, its impossible(Kaoru)

Why, why?(Baron)

The Baron from talking gently changed to shouting out loud as he heard Kaoru said that.

Thats because the tools necessary to make the medicine were robbed(Kaoru)

When, where, and who robbed you?(Baron)

The person who brought me here earlier(Kaoru)

Call Rish! Right now !!(Baron)

The baron shouted loudly.

Yeah yeah, I will stir it.To disturb the security

(Translators joke:)

Just according to the keikaku (Translators Note: Keikaku means plan)
