Life with my Little Sister

Lesson 339: Mud Comes (Part 5)

"Ki, parasite...!? Is that true!?"

"... I thought it was hypothetical. I'm just saying that's what I think"

"But assuming it's a parasite, I've never heard of a species that bursts to death from the inside."

In response to that word, Abel answered nothing.

The hypothesis itself is.

But it's also not something you can easily say to your mouth.

Aletta seemed willing, however, to look into Abel's personal views.

As it stands, he wanted more than a clue.

"I can also make insecticide pills, so if that information is correct, I'll be close to solving it at once!

That's right, I'll leave it and run away.

She didn't realize.

Abel didn't say "parasite," he said "parasite."

Existing medicines said it was ineffective.

But from the Abel of the day, I haven't been able to grasp the full contents of "Parasitic Species". There are just a few reasoning.

(... I want pre-parasitic individuals. If you don't look that up, nothing starts)

Abel thought a little and walked out in the direction of the wetlands.

Shortly after Abel and I broke up.

Aletta encountered the 'victim'.

A patient who had been rapidly deteriorating his health for several days died of rupture.

She wore a mask and gloves and received organs from her family.

Quantify it in an empty cabin outside the village.

(Indeed, there is a strange sarcoma in the organs. Strange way to swell like you were forced to weld...... Lysis and necrosis appear to accompany the periphery of the sarcoma and the blood vessels stretching from it…. Seeing as this sarcoma is one of the causes, there is no mistake...)

But I don't see anything like 'bugs'.

This doesn't even tell if it's just a tumor.

Aletta immediately formulated a simple insect repellent.

If the dean, who was in the city before he came to Rühling, saw how this was, it would have been that he gave a surprise at the hand.

She's not very highly regarded by Abel, but by human standards, she had super first-class abilities.

She puts the medicine she created in a few places.

Sarcoma.

Around it.

Blood vessels.

And to a place where there was relatively little damage.

But none of that, there was a response reminiscent of a parasite.

Inside Aretta, the suspicion swirls that that elf hypothesis was wrong.

"Parasites are creatures too, so after they grow up they should try to spread eggs apart...... But you don't have anything like that. If you intend to sprinkle it apart in the first place, it should be most effective when it bursts..."

What did the Dean say in the previous city?

Didn't you say that no one was sick, even if they touched organs or blood?

(Assuming you can think of a sarcoma that looks stuck from the outside as a parasite.)

Aletta decided not to narrow the investigation down to parasites alone, but also to put the very cause of sarcoma into perspective.

"Well, that girl is a magician and not a doctor, so you can't help but assume this much. You just noticed the presence of sarcoma. Imagine something that might get rid of this."

I shrugged so, and now began to formulate medications that seemed to work for the sarcoma itself.

Then a few days.

Aletta proceeded to develop the drug while helping to take care of the herbal field.

In particular, so far, the effect has not increased.

That little elf seems to be walking around here and there.

Gosh Village and Selkat Village will also go elsewhere.

Aletta saw Abel's behavior as narrowing down to a single investigation.

She thought that reporting all kinds of information about the disease was paramount only in the context of sending herself, and that she did not intend to be involved in treatment or relief.

That elf is not a doctor, so I think he's right.

I'm not even going to ask for luck, but in case you discover the pathogen, it'll be easier to deal with it.

So I'm not even going to pinch my mouth in particular.

Sometimes I see her around the rewling, but she never comes up with an arrow talk.

Probably not getting as much information as I think.

Even Aletta, in the damaged village, hasn't got more clues than she heard in the city clinic, so I thought this was no choice.

Two changes occurred only a few more days later.

For one thing, 'for Aletta' little things.

Aletta was attacked by demons when she went into the wild mountains near the village to get the ingredients for the medicine.

She is an elf, even a doctor.

The magic of crossing humans made it easy to kick the raiders.

When you give away the demons you brought back to the villagers free of charge, they are greatly appreciated.

The villagers also had difficulty in obtaining food because of the strange illness.

Admired, praised and in a very good mood.

But Aletta felt a strange fatigue that night.

Unthinkable fatigue and tiredness from your normal self.

Blurred eyes and faint tremors.

She decided it was overstuffed with roots.

"Ha... The investigation hasn't gone as far as I think, so I'm sure it's because of that. It's not even a joke about the doctor's nutritional deficiency. Even so, you can't loosen your research hands. For a while now, it's going to be like this..."

Aletta had a blue-white face than usual, sighing and clapping her shoulders.

The other thing, for Aletta, is unpleasant.

Tobias, a church priest who met in the city, came to the village of Rühling with a confident expression.

When he saw Aletta, he approached with a thin grin.

Because her flashy expression showed that she wasn't getting any results.

"This has been a long time. Did you find out what happened?

"... moving forward."

"Ha... Are you moving forward, thank you for that. Mine, I guess. Let me just say we're making a leap."

"Nobody's asking about your progress."

"Hehe. That was very disrespectful. But saving the people is the role of our Church. I can help with that, and I seem to have stuck around. Please forgive me."

On the palate, Aletta pulls her face.

Because that's the same as declaring you've found a thread for treatment.

Seeing the look on her face and how she was, Tobias was in an ever-better mood.

"No way, you..."

"Hehe. Well, what do you say? Well, let's just say we can get results not far away. By the way, there must have been another elf woman?

Looking over at Kyoro Kyoro, Tobias asks.

For him, the other elf is also an important competitor.

"... it looks like that girl is walking around and putting together information. She is not a doctor. Looks like he's doing an investigation to give you a report back inside."

"Oh, did I? You're a pure investigator. Situation reporting is very important. Good luck with that."

Tobias smiled knowing that the invisible elf was not a rival.

The competitor is the only elf in front of him. That, too, is definitive for me to win.

"Then I am with this. Let's do our best for each other, for the advancement of medicine and the salvation of the people."

Laughing with Niyaniya, the priest walked away.

Aletta gripped her fist with humiliation and haste.

"Dear Aletta. Looks like our people are back in Rühling, huh?

Evening.

To Aletta comes the man who was the gatekeeper.

Wanting some information, she was asking me to let her know when that little elf visited the village again.

"Yes. Thank you. That would help."

As a thank you, she gives you a vial of potion.

It is already widespread that Aretta's medications have exterminating effects on minor injuries and other illnesses, even if they are ineffective in the case of an odd disease.

You can use it yourself or sell it elsewhere for a high price. The man received his gratuity in a groaning manner.

"Well...... I hope you have a clue."

Aletta walked to an empty house where Abel would be.

The base secured by the little elves is also off the same village as Aletta, but the position is on the diagonal line, furthest away.

Unlike Aletta, who merely secured an empty house, Abel is securing a base in the village thinking of an easy place to investigate and, in the unlikely event of an immediate retreat, she doesn't realize it.

"It's me? Are you there?"

Aletta, who opened the door without waiting for a reply, ceased there.

"Hey, what...! This...... Huh!?"

What was there were countless organs put in the bin.

Some belong to people, and some even think of them as animals and monsters.

They were arranged narrowly.

It was a kind of unusual sight.

Frightened, Aletta realized that all of its organs were diseased.

Nothing kept its normal shape, sarcoma was rooted in every organ, and any difference in degree, it was melting in slime form.

"Oh, you, what the hell is this...!?"

Even when Aletta comes, she will not hesitate to speak to Abel, who is checking the bottle without looking back.

She answered with her gaze pointed at the bottle.

"... This is a finding. We have investigated whether anything other than human species is infected. Some of them have been experimented with monsters they've returned."

"Experiments..."

There she is, ha-ha.

"Wait! To say that you can experiment, you have identified the source of the infection!?"

"... the prediction itself was on. And then check the situation and conditions. And I observed the rate of deterioration."

"What is the rate of deterioration... Yes, no, not quite! WHERE!? WHERE ARE THE OBJECTIVE SOURCES!? WHAT CAUSE IS causing it, AND THE Odd Disease IS happening!?"

To the stuffed Aletta, Abel tilted her neck with no expression.

"... the parasitic species caused it, I thought I said"

"So, but I didn't find anything wormy, and I couldn't find an egg!?"

"… that is to say that this is not a normal organism. Even if it is an undiscovered parasitic species, it should not behave separately from 'reproduction'. Then there's nothing more parasitic than thinking of it as something like this from the beginning."

"What the hell is this...?

"... to kill a parasite. In other words, a kind of weapon."

"Heh, soldier, vessel...!? That's such an absurd story"

"... If it's alchemy biology, the creation of biological weapons is not such a rare story. The biggest problem with this parasitic species is where healing is desperate when you get sick. Perhaps, regular medications don't work. This is supposedly to assimilate to the host as' sarcoma '"

Aletta is surprised by Abel, who gives a pale explanation.

The elf in front of you shouldn't be a doctor.

Yet I felt like I had a lot of knowledge and just the ability to take advantage of it.

At least, the focus and behavior are out of focus.

"Oh, who the hell are you...?

To that question, the little elf answered without precipitation.

"... I'm a teacher. who are still teaching just a few little children to study"
