Chapter 50: Let’s make potions! Part 3
“I’ll go at it!”
With her yell she mixed the Allegro’s leaf powder with the magical liquid.
And then a little later a strong light came out.
The effect is?
I invoke my appraisal skill.
[Speed Potion {Low Grade}]
A potion with a normal speed increasing effect. It was created with mixing Allegro leaves and magical liquid.
The appraisal informed me of its effect in my mind.
“I did it! I did as Master said and it’s my first success!”
Lucia said it with happiness.
“Hahaha, it has no relation with me. This is Lucia’s real ability, it’s amazing.”
While saying those words I was patting her head.
When I did so Lucia’s beastman ears were twitching happily and she let out weird voice.
“Hauuuuuu~ Master~”
Uun, was it a bit ticklish?
I thought that and slowly stopped patting her.
But, for some reason she was looking at me like she was unsatisfied.
Why though?
“Masatsugu-sama’s advice is really amazing! Lucia created the speed potion on the first try!”
“The other craftsmen watching this scene would run away… By the way, I think the speed potion that Lucia just created sells for 500 giel.”
Looking at our conversation Elin and Clarissa opened their mouths.
“Hahaha, I think my advice is irrelevant but anyhow it became a proper potion. Isn’t it amazing that can it be sold for 500 giel, Lucia? Surprisingly you could become successful in life by making potions. “
I replied that.
“No, I decided that I want to be number one…”
But for some reason Lucia was serious and stared intently at me.
Fumu, is there a different occupation you want to go?
At any rate having future prospects is good.
I feel sad when I think about when she’ll leave from here, but that’s necessary for growth.
“Haa~”
I was thinking along those lines and somehow Lucia read my intentions and let out a big sigh.
“?”
I just cocked my head in doubt at her reaction.
We were having a conversation and Laara was envious at me praising Lucia.
“I’ll also do mixing!”
She brought different herbs.
It was an herb with a strange form of a starfish.
I immediately invoked my Appraisal skill to check. “Salam Herb” came out.
As I thought it isn’t toxic.
I informed her of it and she separated herself from this place and beckoned me to come.
I was tilting my head in regards of that action and she tapped the stone next to her that looked good to sit upon.
It seems she wants me to sit there.
I sit on the place she pointed while having a question mark floating on my head.
I did so…
“Aaah!?”
“Laara-chan is unfair!”
“There was a move like that~”
“I’ve been beaten… Such a blunder”
Everyone raised their voices except Laara.
“Oi, Laara”
I also opened my mouth to talk.
“This way it’s much more easier to listen to Masatsugu-sama’s advice!”
Laara said that a bit rapid talking.
That’s right, for some reason she sit on top of my knee and started making potions.
“But, won’t using the mortar be difficult? If it’s for advice then you don’t have to be on my knee.”
“No way! If it’s not this spot then I will not be successful!”
She flatly said that with an imitative tone of a digniful Demon King.
Umu, was it like that?
Besides, I’ve been looking at her from behind a while back and her ears were red, why’s that?
Also, she’s been more nervous than usual and her shoulders are stiff.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like it will have the opposite effect.
Well if she says it’s much easier for her to listen to advice then I should respect her wish.
Being eager is good thing.
More than that I should also teach her properly.
“You should grind it a bit faster. Because if you don’t then the powder will harden from the air in a large state.”
I said so and grabbed her hands from behind.
“Kya!?”
When I did so she let out a lovely voice.
“Oops, I’m sorry.”
As expected she’ll dislike having her hand grasped.
“It’s different! Rather, grasp it more properly! Because otherwise I won’t be able to understand at all!”
She vigorously shook her head and she sounded desperate somehow.
At any rate it seems that I surprised her a bit.
I’m glad, it looks like she didn’t hate it that much.
Does this mean that she trusts me somewhat?
As she said, I strengthened my grip on her hands.
“Hauuu”
Laara gave a bit passionate breath and leaned her head on my chest.
And then she was rubbing on my chest resembling like a cat.
Probably she’s looking for a comfortable position.
“Okay, then…”
I started advising her.
In some aspects Laara was absent-minded but anyhow we mashed the herb and mixed it with the magical liquid.
After a bit a light came out and the mixing was completed.
Now, what’s happened?
[Potion of Darkness {Lower Grade}]
A potion that gives you effect of darkness when you drink it. A potion created by mixing the Salam herb with magical liquid.
Yeah, it went well.
“Right, it was a success, Laara?”
I said so.
“Yes, please pat me.”
And for some reason she has regressed to a little child and replied with a spoiled voice.
Her slant eyes were now fully open and intoxicated.
I don’t quite understand how she became like that but I patted her head for successfully creating a potion.
I did so and just like earlier she was rubbing on my chest while her tail proof as a demon is fluttering.
Fumu, it seems she doesn’t dislike me patting her.
While thinking that, I tried to comb her beautiful silver hair.
Somehow her tail fluttered even faster.
For a while it was like that and then Shii’s reserved voice came.
“I want to do it next~”
She said that and brought out new herbs.
“Hafuu… Can’t be helped. It’s regretful but monopolizing is a violation of the contract.”
Laara said that with full of regret and got up from my knee.
What is this agreement?
It seems within the girls there is some kind of understanding…
And while I was thinking that without even losing time Shii sat on top of my knee.
For some reason she was grinning.
She doesn’t any weight. She’s a spirit so she can control the weight of her body after all.
But…
“Oioi, Shii’s body is big so isn’t it a bit impossible?”
I pointed out the obvious.
Adivicing her like this is hard, her beautiful aqua hair is hiding her and I cannot see well.
But, I told her that and her smile instantaneously disappeared and instead changed to an expression as if the entire world was ending.
“Fueeeeeeeeeen, I don’t want that~ I am looking greatly forward to it~”
And she started weeping.
Yeah, did this Spirit Deity onee-san really live over 100,000 years?
“No, it’s that I cannot give advice properly and it’s no problem if Shii doesn’t like it. Besides, Shii is a beautiful girl, isn’t she a bit too defenceless?”
I had a question floating in my head and followed up with that.
“Be-Beautiful girl!? Ehehehe~ That’s so~ Masatsugu-san thinks of me like that~ Ehe~”
Her unsettled expression disappeared and instead she was grinning with her whole face.
Umu, her spirit came back swiftly.
As I thought no matter who calls the women beautiful then they will always be happy.
While I was thinking that the other girls…
“Must be nice…”
“Shii-chan only is unfair…”
“I also want to be told that”
“I am still lacking in other things”
They grumbling when they looked at us
Un, women do want to be told they’re beautiful by somebody as I thought.
It’s all right, all you girls are unthinkably beautiful.
In the future you’re all going to probably find fine husbands.
To the limit that I’m jealous of those guys.
“Hey, Masatsugu-san please teach my faster~”
She called out to me with a spoiled voice and I once again appraised the round herbs she brought.
I did so and the name “Hypnos Herb” came out.
Immediately we started grinding it into fine powder.
She was moving her hands slowly so I added mine as support and I felt as it hastened up a bit.
In this posture, she is a little short than me so it looks like I am hugging her from behind somehow.
But Shii was happy for some reason and she was doing her best with the work.
Fumu, it seems she doesn’t hate it.
I was slightly relieved and we both continued.
And then after a while we managed to grind the Hypnos Herb now we’ll mix it with the magical liquid.
A faint light ran around us and the mixing was complete.
“Now, what happened?”
I murmured and invoked my appraisal skill on Shii’s potion.
