Since then.

As for the advanced potion, as a result of discussions between Robert and Nigel, it appears that some of the Knights have stockpiled the potion for the time being, and the rest has been passed on to trusted merchants.

This is how I interacted with Nigel after it was decided.

"Elaine, I need a favor..."

"Yes, I understand. I go to the Magic Lab regularly to help make potions."

"Thank you. Elaine can't get her head up. If you don't like it, you can tell me right away."

"No... I'm glad I can help."

"I see. But why is your face so dark?

'Cause it's far from my ideal pharmacist statue!

The pharmacist had a more... somehow, slow, time-consuming image.

And then all of a sudden I make advanced potions... far from my pharmacist statue.

But I'm honestly glad to be of help. Don't be discouraged.

So I went to the lab and sent days to help me make advanced potions, but -- I remembered.

Time to go back to the Spirit Village and cook again.

Someday.

That's what I called Ralph as I raised the bonito.

Hmm, speaking of which, I heard you made a deal with the spirits. As always, the Virgin is on a different scale. "

"Yes, well, I don't think it's a big deal..."

Instead of getting supplies from the Spirit, the Virgin cooks... hmm. Wouldn't that be a reasonable deal? "

Ralph said with a clean face.

"I've been busy making potions, but it's calming down, and I thought it was a good opportunity."

I've been making it little by little since before, and I've finally finished it.

I'm sure Philip and the others will like it.

Nevertheless, it takes three days to reach the forest by carriage. It's going to be a long trip again, so I have to ask Ralph and the others to leave a message.

If that's what you think...

"Well, you're talking about something quite interesting. Me too."

"Yikes!

I suddenly heard a voice from behind, so I screamed reflectively and looked back.

"Douglas! Turn off the signs and stop talking suddenly! Isn't that amazing?

"Ha ha. Isn't that nice? Ariane is as scared as ever."

Douglas smiled happily.

"As I've heard before, I think I've gotten to know the spirits. Like the dragon's self, the Spirit is a rare being. I haven't seen you in a long time."

"Well... that's fine, but..."

In the meantime, who should be tasked with protecting the country?

Did you pre-read my worries?

"Nothing to worry about. I've been talking to Nigel. It means that he will keep the country safe while I'm gone. Originally, this country was relatively peaceful without me and Elianne. They say the only threat was the kingdom... but they're not going anywhere. Don't worry."

and put his hand on his hips and said.

"Talk to me... you were going to go out to the Spirit Forest from the beginning, right?

"Never mind the details."

A confident glass face.

But there's a point in what he says.

It would also be pathetic to keep the Douglas in this country forever just because it's for defense.

This is because the kingdom is doing the same thing to me as the Virgin.

Just because I'm leaving this country doesn't mean that the borders will disappear, and it's probably too much to think about.

"I see. Let's go with Douglas this time."

That's a decision.

Mfufu, is Ralph still on duty this time?

Ralph's tail hanged sadly.

"Ralph, will you come with me?

Well, there's no problem. And if the dragon and Ralph, the beast of God, go together, the spirits will be amazed at everything. They are by nature cowardly. And Ralph won't miss you without Elianne. "

"I'm not lonely"... I don't look like that...

Well, if that's what Ralph says, I'm sorry, but I'll leave you alone.

"I'll get you some... Douglas, will you help me?

Oh.

I had Douglas use storage magic to take some things with me.

I wonder if you could use this amazing magic in a slightly bigger bag... but I don't care about the details.

Well, shall we go?

"Let me... let me... let me..."

"Leave it to me....? What?"

Suddenly Douglas holds me in her arms when she tries to get a carriage ready.

"No, what are you going to do!?

"It would be faster to run with me like before. It may take the form of a dragon, but that doesn't add up or decrease. Even if the city is in a ruckus, it's a billionaire."

A dragon has appeared!

The more sightings you have, the more you'll be in a hurry.

But... that's not the problem right now!

"Then let's go slowly in the carriage! It's not a rush!

"What are you reluctant to do? Besides, it is not my nature to go slowly. We'll be in the woods soon, so you should sleep."

Without hearing my objection, Douglas ran out of his way.

Hurry up!

Besides, it's held by a dog glass and your chest beats faster.

I knew this would happen, so I didn't ask Douglas before!

As Douglas said, it took less than half a day to get to the village while taking a break.

But... obviously, I couldn't sleep.
