Chapter 40: Healing Potions Sure Are A Mystery, Aren’T They?

We returned to the pharmacy while I carried her on my wooden rack. Granny thanked me profusely while sobbing.

Shes really such a stupid girl

I fully agree with that. But then again, adventurer is a job that attracts idiots.

Sword guffawed, You got a point there.

After entrusting the girl to granny, I stood at the door, Were going to move on. Thanks for everything, I owe you. Oh, right.

I went over to granny and handed it to her.

This is Dont tell me! Granny threw her eyes wide open.

Sword tilted his head while watching, and then widened his eyes as well.

Hey! Thatsyou gotta be kiddin, right!?

Its a Healing Potion I made myself. Its different from the ones available on the market as Ive tampered with it a tiny bit.

I showed them the medicine I received from granny as reward for the request, and lightly shook it.

If you give me this here as reward for the request, its overpaying. Therefore I prepared something to offset the imbalance. Well, its handmade, so making it didnt really cost me much anyway.

Granny stared at me blankly.

I think its something with a similar effect. I doubt youll be able to sell it to the guildunder my name. If you put forth Swords name, they should buy it off you since this guy seems to be some kind of bigshot. One platinum coin, was it?

Sword was dumbfounded as well, but came back to his senses upon my question.

Ive got no doubt that theyll check it out. But, if they can prove its effectiveness, well, half of thatno, were talkin bout you here, so maybe theyre goin to set the price to twice that. Can you estimate how much of an effect its got?

I placed a hand on my chin, Lets seehmm, bones or parts regarded as bones will regrow.

The two stared at me in shock.

But, they will just regrow, you know? I dont know whether theyll work normally again since I never used it myself. Itd just be an arm made with a healing potion. I guess you could also call it Ultra High Speed Cultivation for Transplantation. In short, itd be an arm made by copying an arm.

You totally lost me there.

Its difficult to explain.

If you chant a spell along the lines of Arm, grow~ in this world, the arm will regrow in the same way as before for some reason, but I dont get the principle behind that. But even without fully understanding it, I know a spell that will transform magic elements into cells to create a tissue, so I mixed up the spell formula for that.

Itd be much simpler, if the usage had a clear specification, but when it comes to creating a general purpose application, its kinda tough. Since I assembled the spell formula like program code, I enjoyed doing it despite it being a challenge.

This only makes it more clear to me that youve totally made a mistake in what path to take in life.

Ive got fun with it because its a hobby. But, this worlds an arm will grow if you drink this is amazing. I dont understand the theory behind it at all.

After gazing at my handmade healing potion, granny shifted her eyes to me.

Is it okay for me to take this?

Its something made by me. And this is something made by you. So, its an exchange. However, the medicine over here is more valuable than the one over there. The one over there contradicts the providence of nature. Though its ultimately just the Providence of Nature as I perceive it.

Granny laughed, How regrettable. Youd make a great pharmacist if you seriously aimed for it.

I want to run live experiments on people, but Id hate to take responsibility if one of the specimens dies because I made a careless mistake. Also, I like making medicine, but long observations to confirm its efficacy is a major pain. Therefore Im not cut out for it. Im an adventurer, an occupation where I go on adventures.

Once I threw out my chest, proudly stating so, Sword burst into laughter.

If one listens to your talkin bout adventurers, they could get the impression that its awfully relaxed and enjoyable.

But it is! Just having to take care of your own life is relaxed and fun, no? As a business that makes things and sells them, you must take responsibility for whatever you sell, you know? Something like that is obviously a big no for me. Its a hobby, and its just fine as a hobby. No one is going to complain about something made as part of a hobby.

Now even granny started to laugh.

Thanks. Then Ill take you up on your offer. Im free to use it as I like, right?

Of course. Ill use this here as I please, too.

Thanks. Then goodbye and farewell.

Farewell.

We left after I waved my hand. Granny kept waving hers all the time until I couldnt see her any longer.
