Chapter 390: Suis Special Intermediate Level Potion

Translated by Zzonkedd

Edited by Gumihou

So, we have 2 new speaking characters here. Leather Armour and Robed Man aka Lumier and Jeremiah.

Ill just adjust their dialogues according to their possible characteristics, which vaguely showed up in the latter part of the chapter. [9]

[8] I recalled back to the first time we visited Carenina. There was an Adventurer who was on the verge of dying from a Wyvern attack, wasnt there? I cant remember the details aside from him being badly injured and the people around him making a fuss about it, though I cant remember if he had been poisoned.

[8] Suis special potion fixed him up though.

Hey Fer, are Wyverns attacks poisonous? [5] [3] I asked through telepathy.

Umu, yes,

[5a] I guess Suis potion could easily cure something like a paralytic poison, I mused.

[8] I have used Suis potion on human diseases before and I think the potion I used at Carenina was an Advanced Potion? I really cant remember anymore. Still, that Adventurer guy was really badly injured while this one was only hit by a paralytic poison, so

Anyway, I dont have any anti-paralytic potion with me, but I do carry some all-purpose antidotes. Would you like to try it?

Wait, for real? Theres such thing as an all-purpose antidote? [6] But, isnt that kind of rare and

[9] It doesnt matter, cut in the man wearing robes. He was clearly the leader and looked like some kind of magic user. Our party is still new and we have finally ranked up. We cant afford to lose our reputation, especially since we only have 3 people.

[9] The robed man looked at me and said, I would be very grateful if you could spare us the potion.

[4] Sure, I said, handing Suis Intermediate Potion over.

[8]

The two of them hurried over to their friend. While the swordsman supported the injured guy, the magic user poured a portion of Suis potion on the arm. I leaned over to take a look and immediately regretted it.

The injured Adventurers arm had turned black and red from the Forest Scorpions attack. It looked kind of infected too eww

Luckily, however, Suis potion soon fixed that up. A small trickle of the potion was enough to close the wound and in a blink of an eye, the skin colour had turned from horribly discoloured to a more normal tone.

[8]

Ughhh. [3] the injured man opened his eyes.

Oh, youre up! [3] the swordsman cried out.

Here, [3] said the robed man, drink this.

[6] I watched avidly.

[6] So thats how youd use a potion

[8] Soon, the injured man was sitting up and looked like he could take on the world again.

[9]

This potion is kind of incredible, said the swordsman.

It is the robed man said. [5b] [2] He turned to me, Excuse me, thank you for your help. We would pay for this potion, of course. He looked a little worried but determined.

Ah, that, they wanted to pay me? What should I do now? Er, its 1 gold per potion.

The robed man paused, 1 gold? Thats very reasonable.

Thats b.l.o.o.d.y cheap! the swordsman cried. Not only did it clear the poison out but also heal wounds! Most potion only does one thing or other.

What my friend said is correct, said the robed man. 1 gold is too little for such a potion, please take at least 2 gold for it.

No, no, its fine, I said.

No, no, we insist, said the robed man.

Yes! Please take our money! cried the swordsman. In fact, if you could spare us more, well buy those too!

Ah

[9] [8] In the end, I ended up taking 2 gold per Intermediate Level Potion. The two of them took out as much money as they could spare to buy as many, ahem, All-Purpose Antidote from me. I mean, I cant say that these potions are really Suis Special Intermediate Level Potion, right?

Still, since Sui could make as much potion as I wanted, I felt a little bad aboout taking their money for it.

On the other hand

[4] Thank you very much for coming to our aid, said the robed man. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Jeremiah. The swordsman is Lumier and Ryuk is our scout. Were the [Trickster] party.

[4] Were on our way to the Royal Capital on an escort mission, [7] said Lumier cheerfully.

[9] h.e.l.lo, Im Mukouda. Im an Adventurer too, S Rank. Haha, I said a little awkwardly.

All three looked very surprised.

Wow! No wonder you have such great potions. As expected of an S Ranker. Were so lucky to meet you, [3] was Lumiers enthusiastic remark.

[4] [8] Indeed, I am very grateful, said Ryuk. I dont wish to drag down my party. [6] He looked at the pile of dead Giant Forest Scorpion and muttered, Its strange to encounter Giant Forest Scorpions here

[5] [6] Well have to report this matter to the Guild when we reach the Royal Capital, said Jeremiah.

[6] Yeah, some other people could get hurt and might not be as lucky as us, Lumier sounded oddly serious. [5c] [10]

A sound from the carriage alerted us. The people there were waving, Lumier waved back.

Well, thats our cue to go, Ryuk leapt to his feet. Woah, that potions really great. I feel as good as new!

Thank you again for letting us purchase the potions, said Jeremiah solemnly.

Ah, no, no, Im glad you find it useful, there was no way I could tell them that I could get these potions for free from Sui

Oi! Isnt it time to go?

Fer was so cross that his mental voice was very loud in my head.

Dungeon! We have the dungeon to gooo! Dora-chan zoomed around our heads.

Well, looks like your familiars are rather impatient, commented Jeremiah.

Ahaha, well, were on our way to the dungeon

Is that so? Well, we wont keep you any longer. Anyway, were usually at the Royal Capital. If you happen to drop by, we can take you around, said Lumier.

Oh, thank you very much! Its always nice to have a local guide when youre in a strange place.

No, no, we should be the one thanking you,

No, no,

Oi!!

Fer punctuated this with a growl.

Ahh, looks like we should be on our way, lots to do, carriages to escort! Bye! Ryuk the scout, probably the most sensitive to the atmosphere of them all, pulled his two companions away.

Anyway, once the [Trickster] party and the carriage were gone, there was only us and a pile of dead Giant Forest Scorpions left.

A quick [Appraisal] told me that the poison sacs and carapaces of these monsters could be sold for money, so I put them into my [Item Box] careful not to touch anything that might look poisonous.

[10]

Hmm, the scout, Ryuk said that he had never seen these Giant Forest Scorpions in this area before. [2] I wonder what theyre doing here? Had they been chased by out something?

Surely, it cant be that? [5c]

Oi, what are doing s.p.a.cing out there? Grab on. [5]

Woah, wha-

I found myself tossed onto Fers back and instinctively grabbed onto his fur.

[9] Oi! Dont suddenly throw me onto your back like that!

Hahahah! Dont fall off~~!

Dora-chan crowed as he zipped overhead.

Ugh, these d.a.m.ned flyers

Aruji~ Im hungry~ [5]

Ah, Sui-tan- [5]

Umu, Im hungry too. However, we should move quickly and get to the dungeon as soon as possible. [5] [5]

Wait, are you actually postponing a meal to go to the dungeon!!?

I was scandalised.

[Gumihou: Its only possible characteristics because Eguchi Rens dialogues, what little of them, were kind of generic]

[1] Structural Change: Combine 2 paragraphs

[2] Structural Change: Combine 3 paragraphs

[3] Structural Change: Combine paragraph & dialogue

[4] Structural Change: Change pa.s.sive sentence to dialogue

According to what they said, it seems that the forest scorpion is a monster that you dont usually see around here. In the first place, there wasnt even any talk about there being poisonous monsters out here, so its understandable that they didnt have any anti-poison medicines with them.

The appearance of the Giant Forest Scorpion here may mean that it could happen again in the future. So basically, they were really glad they had found me and that I had these potions made by Sui.

Gumihou is speechless by the incredibly dull text.

[5] Delete Repet.i.tive or Pointless Information starting to delete pointless scenes now

[a] Delete question about which poison is more poisonous, because Adventurer is only hit by a paralytic. Dont be a numpty.

[b] Deleted scene where M kept talking to himself about how he must absolutely not reveal the fact that the potions were made by Sui

[c] Replaced info vomit with foreshadow hints.

[6] Additional Information for Aesthetic Purpose

[7] Add Dialogue Tag

[8] Creative Licence Taken Give better details re Carenina and potion use

[9] Adjust dialogue so the characters dont sound like they had been written by AI

[10] Adjusted the parting scene to make it look more natural. Also, what happened next.
