"Partner with you? What is it?"

"Let's literally mean, as a companion, would you like to defeat Cardinal Georgis together? Not in a popular way, but in a more direct way."

Hearing my words ... Count Meguis looked surprised.

Then ... ask me.

"Is that killing Cardinal Georgis?"

"It's one of the options. I want to do it if I can ... but it's hard to do right now."

On the back of Cardinal Georgis, there is a "Desert Garden".

If you want to assassinate, I don't think you can do it easily.

"I agree. If you can, you're the man who wants to kill you if you stab .... If you can do that, someone else is doing it."

"I guess."

"Knowing that ... can you destroy Cardinal Georgis?"

Count Meigis looks at me with suspicious eyes.

Well, if a mere adventurer suddenly says something like this, it's no wonder he's suspicious.

But ... at the right time, this is your chance to get credit.

"I can't help alone. I can help. It creates a weakness for Cardinal Georgis."

"Weaknesses ...? Do you know the weakness of Cardinal Georgis?"

"No, I don't know. I'll look for it."

Hearing my words ... Count Meguis looked like a beat.

Then tell them to remind.

"Don't be stupid. If you can easily find your weaknesses, you'll find them."

……Is that really so.

I don't think I'm just aware of the weakness in front of me.

"Well, let's look for weaknesses. Can you answer some questions?"

"... Oh, if I could find Cardinal Georgis's weakness."

"I'm saved. The first question is ... Cardinal Georgis is a noble with considerable power, isn't he?"

If Cardinal Georgis was just a noble, he wouldn't be able to partner with the guild to persecute lower ranks.

Given its influence on the guild ... there is no doubt that it is a very large noble in the country.

The problem is how he became a nobleman.

"No, Cardinal Georgis is a nobleman who has grown rapidly over the past decade or so."

"How did you grow up?"

"It's probably ... because we've teamed up with a desert miniature garden."

So that's it.

"A desert miniature garden"?

But ...

"'The Desert Garden' shouldn't be involved in the front politics. Cardinal Georgis is ostensibly, what aristocrat?"

Even if Despair has a great army, if you use it directly to support Cardinal Georgis, evil will be quickly discovered.

Giving Cardinal Georgis the assets of Despair's Miniature Garden would be difficult.

If the nobles suddenly start to have the money they don't know, it's natural to be suspicious.

They should have increased their power in an ostensible way.

What is it?

Thinking so ... Countess Meigis spoke.

"Speaking of Cardinal Georgis, it's a healing drug. Because it holds most of the healing drugs, it's overwhelmingly strong among the nobility of the Church."

"Healing drug?"

"It is a medicine to heal the injured person. However, unlike ordinary medicine, it has a tremendous effect at the moment of use. Unlike recovery magic, it seems that even part defects are cured."

So that's it.

In other words, potions.

"Is that valuable?"

With BBO, the potion wasn't that valuable.

In high-level hunting grounds, it is not uncommon to drink nearly 100 bottles an hour.

But ...

"Oh, it's incredibly valuable. At least 3 million gil per bottle .... It's only accessible to some advanced adventurers and nobles."

Is it so precious?

…… If you hold most of the low-yielding potions, it makes sense to have tremendous power.

Many patients can only be cured with potions, and seizing potion production is the same as bringing them all together and taking hostage.

However, there are points to worry about.

"Most of the healing drugs are held by Cardinal Georgis ... Are you putting them on a monopoly?"

Potions are not so difficult to manufacture.

If you have all the ingredients and recipes, you can make them just like cooking.

…… What exactly is it that one noble will hold it?

"No, there is no monopoly. Even in the county of Megis, there are a very small number of healing medicines. The reason we cannot make it in large quantities is because there is no bradonna grass. I can't get it. ''

Bradonna grass ... One of the most basic ingredients in potions.

Certainly, few potions can be made without bradonna grass.

It is inevitable that potions cannot be made if the bradonna grass is held down.

"But can Cardinal Georgis be made?"

"Ah. Everything seems to have developed a way to make healing medicine without using bradonna grass. It says that it can produce nearly 1,000 potions a year."

"Is that 1,000 healing drugs a year the source of Cardinal Georgis's power?"

"That's how it is"

So that's it.

…… the weakness of Cardinal Georgis was found.
