20. Potion (7/29/2019)

Then I walked a little and saw the East Gate. You were arriving at the East Gate a little later and you ran into Bat...... I thought that but I had no choice but to think positively that I had extraordinary income. That's how we arrived at the East Gate, but the gate was closed. I didn't think it was open because the sun was down, but for once, I decided to ask if I could get in.

Excuse me.

When I heard that, the soldiers pulled out their weapons and looked at me.

"... are you a child?

"Maybe you do. What's going on at this hour?

Word as I thought it would be, but after seeing that soldier, I feel like they're asking me very carefully. Well, actually, it seems like you're a lot on guard...

"I want to go into the city, but you're letting me in?

"... you live in this city?

For once, you live there, don't you? Not much time has passed since I came to this city......

"Whoa?"

"Why doubtful shape?

When I answered that, the gate soldier looked at me suspiciously, so I said how it became an ambiguous expression.

"I just recently came to this city..."

"Really... What do you want to do?

The soldier who responded so was speaking to the other soldier. Is the other gate soldier in a better position? I was watching what happened, thinking.

"Let's just ask the captain. Call the captain because I'm watching her."

"Yes!"

Saying so, one disappeared into the jar.

"... so why are you all bloody?

When I heard that, I understood why the two of them were so suspicious. With that said, I remembered there was a fight and the clothes on the left were full of blood.

"I ran into some demons and got hurt..."

"Really..."

Well, I don't think you can tell if that's true because you haven't actually seen where you were fighting. Someone from an earlier soldier brought back someone who looked like a superior officer.

"The one you said you wanted to go into the city at night?

That's what came out of it was a soldier when I entered this city. Sure it was Mr. Helga?

"Yes."

"... are you the kid who sure didn't have the card?

"That's right. Thank you for selling the Demon Stone."

That's what I say and bow lightly.

"You look like this previous kid..."

"Captain, are you okay?

"Probably not a problem. And what happened to that blood?

That's what you said and you asked about dirt on my clothes, so you gave the same explanation as before.

"I fought the demons earlier and got hurt a little bit..."

"... did you treat him properly?

"As much as washing the wound..."

"Let me see your wound for a second."

That's what they said, so I roll my arms. Even so, the whole injured part, I don't see it......

"That's a lot of deep wounds... Hey, bring the potion."

"Yes, sir"

When I said that, one of them rushed into the stuffing and came back a while later.

"I brought it"

"Thank you"

Saying so, the man who brought the potion stepped back.

"Lady, you should try this on your wound"

That's what they told me. I took the potion and hung it on my wound. Then the wounds on the portions that draped the potion gradually become blocked. I was a little surprised by that, but I couldn't hang the potion, so I took off my jacket and hung my shirt on the rest of the wound. The wound on the part I had just hung was blocked. Then a little later all the wounds were blocked.

"This potion is amazing..."

When I was so surprised, when the soldiers thought it was quiet and turned their gaze towards me, they looked surprised at me for some reason.

"What's going on?

"No, it's nothing"

I said. Well, it doesn't seem like a big deal, okay? I thought that I was concerned about the potion I had just used.

"How much do you want for this potion?

"Hmm? Yeah, you don't have to worry about that. That's what I did on my own."

That's what bothers me when they say. Plus I wanted to have a little of this potion.

"Then potion. Where do you sell it?

"... you know what I mean?

When I heard that, I was asking other soldiers. Could you possibly not understand?

"I don't know."

"I don't know either. I'll get it when I ask for refills when it's less..."

"... we don't know where we're selling it. But I think it was about one piece of silver coin..."

"Really...... For now, I'll pay for the potion."

It's a shame I don't know where that potion is sold, but I thought I'd pay for what I used. I gave the captain a piece of silver coin.

"No, this is nothing because I did it on my own"

"Take it because I care"

"But..."

I've said a lot, but eventually the other one pulled me back. Is this all right for now? and I was a little relieved that I could pay for it.
