A Chronicle of Life in a Different World
Episode 45: Rainy Weather Holidays Part 1
The next day, he went to take a bath on the East River.
On that day, it rained heavily, and the sound of rain hitting the ground was heard in Reurus' ears eating breakfast at Dominic's restaurant.
Strong rain legs to describe. This is the first time it has rained so much since Raval Waste City, and Reurus looks at Eliza sitting face to face, thinking that today's demon extermination will stop.
Eliza was obsessed with breakfast on her desk, but when she noticed Reurus's gaze, she somehow blushed her face.
Hey.
"I don't know. I don't know anything."
Reurus called out with her hands on breakfast, and Eliza turned her face straight to the side even though she didn't say anything. At that time, the peachy blonde hair was shaking, and the blinking ears became bright red.
"Why don't you turn around and say it? I haven't said anything yet.
"You don't know what you don't know!
It appears that Eliza has something to do with the disappearance of the wound on her right arm. Reurus, who saw Eliza denying it with her face bright red, sips salt soup while thinking that this is what falls into the story.
If Eliza's self-declaration was not a lie, it would not have been cured by healing magic. Even if Reurus' self-healing powers worked by applying ointment and sleeping overnight, the wounds inflicted on the Magic Dog were not shallow enough to heal in just one night.
(Did you "release the calories" while you were sleeping? No, but even though the pain disappeared, I didn't feel that my injury had healed....)
I remember when I fought Kimira, but the wounds couldn't have healed. Then Eliza must have done something. But it seems that “something” is not as convenient as healing magic.
If you can use healing magic, you said it when Natalia was asking you questions.
As far as Reurus knows, only Spirit Teacher Esters can use healing magic in Laval Waste City. If I could use healing magic, I wouldn't have interfered with Natalia.
"Really... that's fine."
While placing a wooden bowl with salt soup on the desk, Reurus says. If Eliza doesn't want to say anything, she doesn't have to ask. That's what I thought and changed the subject - before I turned to Reurus with a frightening gaze, like Eliza's rush.
"Oh, are you mad...?
"No? If you don't want to, you just won't have to ask. I'm lucky the wound healed sooner than I thought... no, I'm just lucky."
The wound, which was going to take a few days to heal, healed after just sleeping overnight. It seems impossible to defeat monsters due to heavy rain today, but it is thankful that you can use your dominant arm freely.
Reurus roams black bread without saying he lost interest. Eliza's eyes were black and white with such a revulsive attitude, but her bright red face calmed down to normal. But after a few seconds, my face turned bright red again.
"Oh, my lord...."
Hmm?
Should I say it or should I keep it quiet? Eliza could see such a patrol, but she finally screamed as if she had made up her mind.
"I told you, if you spit on me, it'll heal! That's why I... um..."
However, it was only at the beginning that I screamed, and my voice shrunk in the buttocks. When he heard the words, Reus blinked several times with his face, twisted his neck, and then opened his eyes.
"... you spit on me while I was sleeping? What? That really cured you!?
"So that reaction was a lie!? You lied to me!? I was ashamed to lick you!
Reurus and Eliza have sharply skewed points. As for Reurus, she was surprised that the wound had healed with just a spit, but Eliza decided that Reurus was lying.
(Well, what do you mean? I was just joking that it would heal if I spit on it... eh, did it really heal? Bloodsucking saliva is amazing!
Unexpectedly, it was a revulsion that looked at my right arm, but the wound was completely blocked, not even a pig. Perhaps the saliva of the bloodsucking species has a powerful bactericidal and curative effect. Weird and awesome, the fantasy world and Reurus fought.
"Ah, no, but the wound is healed, and it wasn't a lie...?
"Mm? Ooh... that's true! Hmm, Reurus couldn't have lied to me!
I was joking, but it's actually healed. Eliza remembers that Reurus's words weren't lies and turns her face into a smile.
Reurus smiled to match Eliza - he was in a fierce hurry inside.
(I can't use healing magic, but does saliva work like medicine? No, no, what kind of saliva is that? But this world also has healing magic, and it's not strange for bloodsucking species to have such properties...? No, it's definitely strange after all)
Had it worked, Natalia would have taught me. Regardless of the amount of ointment to be applied to the wound, I have never seen a revulsion such as a highly effective medicine. Is it rare to see it in Laval Waste City as a whole, or is it not handled in Laval Waste City itself?
(Is it because it's a bloodsucker, because it's Eliza... or because of my constitution? But when it came to Kimira, Estelle was cured, and it had nothing to do with Eliza... huh?
When I thought about it, there was something caught in Reurus' brain.
"... hey, Eliza"
"What is it?
Have you forgotten why your face turned bright red so far? Eliza is eating black bread deliciously. Reurus asked, softening her expression to avoid frightening Eliza.
"When I was questioning you, you said your injuries were healing quickly, right? How fast is that?
Poton and Eliza's hand fall black bread. Eliza opened her eyes and began to shake her lips, wondering if Reurus' question was unexpected.
"Ugh... Eliza?
The black bread Eliza dropped jumped off her desk and almost fell to the floor. When Reurus grabbed the black bread earlier, he rode with the same momentum and tilted his neck.
Eliza has a lot of sweat on her forehead, whether she can't see or react to such a revulsion. Then he wandered his gaze violently, and stood up in his seat and fled - never.
"Nh... um, um... I see..."
Eliza grabbed her desk with a sound, swallowed her saliva, and held her body down as she tried to escape. Reurus frowned and looked worriedly at Corona from the kitchen.
As soon as Corona noticed Reurus's gaze, she nodded back and pulled into the kitchen. Dominic and I will not listen to Eliza.
"If it's a Reurus... no, I want you to listen to Reurus..."
Reurus turned his expression into something serious to Eliza, who began to say such a thing with her voice trembling.
"Oh... what?
"The town I used to live in... that's why I ran away from Kermed. Known to be a bloodsucking species, I think I'll tell you why."
Eliza drinks water slowly to calm herself down. Reurus stopped eating and waited for Eliza to speak without hurrying.
"Indeed, my injury healed quickly from the old days... even when I cut my hand with a knife imitating Kaa-sama, it healed overnight. My scratched knees healed instantly even when I played with my neighbors and fell..."
If I ask only that, I can get rid of the wound a little faster. When I was a kid, I was able to recover from a few injuries.
"That was... um, it was a windy day. I was playing with my neighbor's friends as usual, but the wind came out of the wooden window. I didn't have time to avoid it, so I shot him in the head."
Moistening her lips with water, Eliza continued talking.
"I didn't let you die. But I bled a lot from my head... and the wound healed in just a day or two."
Eliza narrows her eyes to remind her of a distant memory. It was a trick that didn't suit her age, but Eliza escaped from Kermed when she was five to seven years old. Thirteen years old is what happened half a lifetime ago.
"My friend who was playing with me was happy that my wound had healed... but she told her parents about it. Rumors spread quickly because there were no people nearby who could use healing magic. I wonder if this is a monster I don't know."
"... did Eliza's grandmother not use healing magic?
"Hmm... Auntie was one of Kermed's leading wizards, but“ that's why ”Auntie couldn't cure me, so I'm not a monster anymore..."
I got seriously injured, but the injury healed in a short period of time. As a realuse, it would have been strange for people in this world to have recovered from a major injury in a short period of time without the use of healing magic.
The Gregorians who heard the noise decided that Eliza was a bloodsucker, and the Elizabeth family, who felt danger, fled Kermed.
"What? When did you spit on me and my wound healed?
I understand why Eliza escaped from Kermed. However, it has nothing to do with the healing of Reurus' arm wound. It would be impossible to think that Eliza's ability to cure herself was such that her saliva was also curable.
"You said it would heal if I spit on you, right?
Eliza said strangely from the bottom of her heart. It is true that Reurus said it would heal if I spit on it, but it seems strange if it actually healed. Eliza seemed to have no idea what was going on when she asked her to solve it.
I don't think Eliza is going to hide anything anymore. Then, without knowing why the injury had healed, Reurus laughed to encourage Eliza with a dark expression, even though she had doubts.
"Easy to heal injuries is the best thing for an adventurer. I'm not asking you to get hurt, but the fact that it takes less time to treat injuries doesn't mean you can spend that much time fighting monsters."
I would not have been able to do it until the wound on my right arm healed with Reurus. It was a pleasant miscalculation that it was cured by just sleeping overnight.
"... is that so? Does Reurus think so?
Ah.
Speaking of which, Eliza's ability to dislike herself is confirmed and complicated. Still, I noticed that there was nothing unusual about Reurus' response, and I exhaled relieved.
Eliza's reaction reveals that she doesn't want to be treated like a monster again. When Reurus resumed the meal he had stopped, he looked back and looked outside the store to change the subject.
"Speaking of which, you said you'd buy clothes when the money came in. With this rain, we won't be able to defeat the monsters, so why don't we go to the clothes store today?"
Laughing at that, Eliza blinked her eyes as if she had been poked by falsehood. Still, understanding Reurus's story sparkled my eyes.
"Was it good!?
"As an apology for yesterday. The question is, do you have clothes that suit Eliza's physique?"
Eliza's face is once again bright red in Reurus' words. It's not impressive in many ways, and it doesn't leave any memories of Reurus, but it's true that I jumped in the water.
Then Reurus thought about buying clothes with an apology in mind. However, there is also one concern.
Eliza was too young for her age, and even the clothes Corona used to wear had excess sleeves. I don't think there are any clothes for children, but basically only used clothes are handled by clothing stores. If you're unlucky, you won't find clothes that fit Eliza's body.
Still, it should be fun just to look around in your clothes. Whether Eliza actually won more fun than shame, she shouted with a smile while speeding up the pace of the meal.
"Then finish your meal and let's go! You may run out of clothes to suit me!
"Let's go to the Adventurers' Union first, shall we? I'll ask Senpai Sharon if I can take the day off."
The dark atmosphere turns around, and Eliza looks brightly at her black bread. When Eliza laughed bitterly, Reurus also paced his meal.
