Miniature Garden Chemister

14. Small Blue Flowers

Patchy...... and a small incendiary sound reaches my ear. Feeling the warmth of it, I opened my eyes softly.

Where am I? The first thing that popped into my eyes was the rocky skin. On that ceiling like a cave, oh, one convinced me that this must be a cave.

"Oh, did you wake up?

"………………………… ah!

I hear a gentle voice, and I get annoyed.

Yes, it fell to the little fountain in the woods. Sure, in such a way as to be dropped by Dutchon. I wonder what the hell it was, but I don't feel like I have the answer at all.

Damn it! No. Now it's time to figure out what's going on rather than what happened when we fell. Hold on, Hinami!

"If that's all you're doing, you're gonna be okay."

"Ah... excuse me"

Yikes! And they laughed at me when I was in the mood.

The Lord of the Voice is still young... a man. Is it more or less around the age of 20? Probably the same age as I was before my body got smaller.

gentle eye area for sarcastic watery hair. Are you a magician because you're wearing a blue robe?

"I was drowning and losing my mind. I used healing magic, so I don't think there's a problem...... are you feeling uncomfortable with your body?

"Oh, and... it looks fine. Thank you for your help."

If you look at your body in a hurry, you are not particularly injured. The clothes are not cut, so there was probably no trauma. Take a breath and tell her thanks again.

"But how did you end up in such a fountain?

"Uh... I fell into a little forest fountain."

"Small, is it a forest near the city of Raleel?

He looks surprised, but apparently the place has been conveyed, so I make him snort.

"But I remember that spring was shallow. Never connected to a place like this..."

"Yes, right..."

I'm surprised that you two put your necks up, but you really believed my words. Normally, I don't believe that spring is connected to a fountain in a cave like this. If you know the forest fountain, all the more so.

And I remind myself that I don't have a name. You got help, but you didn't even say hello properly!

"I'm sorry, I didn't even have a name. Hinami,. Thank you so much for your help!

"No. I'm glad it just took me down the street. I'm Saine, the pharmacist's daughter."

"What!"

The man who laughed warmly, Mr. Saine...... in other words.

"The healer of the brave party!?"

"Yes, I am a healer"

When I opened my eyes and was surprised, Mr. Saine smiled gently.

That's right, I thought you were a magician because you were a robe, but you helped me do some restorative magic. If you're a healer, you're convinced.

Or do you know me as a pharmacist? I wonder, did you ask Alfred or Salina?

"I heard Al rumor about Mr. Hinami. I have also been helped by recovery pills (potions) many times."

"You did, didn't you?"

Al means Mr. Alfred, I'm sure. I remember Alfred buying me some potions to restore my magic. Speaking of which, he also told the party members.

I hope you are recovering deliciously.

"… well. If Hinami's okay, I'm going to move."

"Move? Oh, right. We have to get out of the cave."

Yes, it was. Mr. Saine's tone was so calm that I forgot that this is the cave. We need to keep our heads tight. Maybe there's a demon.

We need to grasp the bow that Master Rig gave us at the point so that we can deal with it immediately if the demon comes along.

"Though... you've actually lost your way, haven't you? I don't know how to get home."

"Eh?"

"No, is it more right that you didn't care about your way home than that you don't know your way home"

"Uh?

What do you mean you didn't care about your way home because you had no choice but to get lost?

I stand up slowly from the rock-skinned ground, and see Saine smiling like a little troubled. It's too calm to be seen by people in need who don't know their way home.

He looks a little troubled, "hmm," he says with his neck clenched, thinking about how Mr. Saine would explain to me.

"Right. To Hinami, I wonder if this is what I should do. I have the skills of a trustee."

"Huh? That could be...!

A very rare skill that may allow you to have a conversation with Master Rig and can only be used by three people in this world! Now that Ickle's got it, it's probably got to be four.

Speaking of which, I don't think Ickle ended up using his commissioning skills. Well, you just dated me, so I guess it was an unnecessary skill for Ickle.

"Yes. Mr. Hinami will show up at this fountain, so he wants me to lead him. There was a trust."

"………!

What the hell is that supposed to mean? From Master Rigg, or, Master Lettysreel? Those two are the only gods I know.

But either way, I was happy with the fact that you cared about me.

However………….

"How could I have come from here?

"Mm-hmm. That far, I don't even know, do I? In the meantime, shall we walk? The ground is rocky and unstable, so be careful."

"Yes, if you slow down...... hiaaah!?"

"Hinami!?"

In an effort to take a slow step, I laid my hands on the rock beside me... and fell flashly. I don't know how I fell when I was grabbing it! Trying to scream like that makes me angry.

I didn't fall, the rock I grabbed collapsed. No, you might be right to say you slipped into the other side of the wall, not collapsed.

Immediately "Are you okay!?" followed by Mr. Saine after me. I asked him to give me a hand and stood up, relieved that there were no injuries for now.

And what the hell is wrong with you, if you look at the horizontal hole in the cave where you have fallen... on one side, the flowers that were blooming in the blue, in the fountain were also blooming here.

"Wow......"

"Never seen it, it's a flower"

There seemed to be a little water running, and when I walked I heard a proper water noise.

The stem in the center was straight through the ceiling rock to the sky. Maybe this place is directly under the fountain.

Mr. Saine says he has never seen these flowers, just like Mr. Alfred and the others. Is it a special flower growing deep in this cave, or is it like a whole new breed of flowers?

"I tried to start today, but in the middle of the forest fountain, the same big flowers were blooming."

"Is it in that spring? Though I never saw the flowers bloom...... that's kind of interesting"

Suddenly blooming flowers. Fountain connected to a cave in the basement. Mr. Saine, a healing magician, guided by a divine commission.

Damn, I'm here now. To me. What will happen?

"Ho ho."

"Wow!

"Demons! … but not?

"Huh?... fuuuuuuuuuu?

sounded stiff, if you think so and turn your eyes. On the leaves near the ceiling, the calf sat down and looked at this one. That's a small fudge, probably the same as a snow rabbit roll...... no, a little smaller than that.

But why is a bird in the woods behind a cave like this?

"Well Done Ho Ho Ho"

"Talked!

"I will protect these flowers, ho. I need your help, Ho Ho Ho."

"To Hinami, do you need help?

"Ho ho ho," he rang again, and Mr. Furu nodded. He spread his wings wide, winged them, and took the ceiling wide because of it. And then you landed on my head to rest my wings...

"Uh? Can I help you?

"Ho ho... I want you to take these flowers to the ground. I want you to bloom in the sun."

Furo-san said so, pointing her wings at the first little flower blooming at my feet.

Indeed, it has become a little less energetic than other flowers. In the cave, hasn't it grown much because of the lack of sunlight?

But it would be strange if the other flowers were growing properly.

'Can you do me a favor, Ho Ho?

"Uh, yes. Can I have the garden of the house?

'That's the best. Bye. Nice to meet you, ho ho.'

"You're welcome."

It kind of makes me even happier with the blissfully shaky fudge. In the meantime, I would be surprised to hear the sound of sari again if I didn't think I would take the flowers from soil to soil.

Mr. Saine laughed at me with a tickle, and I'm a little embarrassed.

"Poho."

"Oh. It's a fluke again."

"True. Fukuru over here is white."

A pure white calf, about the same size as the reddish calf on my head, came winged from behind the stem. Now he stuck it on my shoulder and rubbed it on me with his mundane body. Or, it's adorable!

"I'll follow you, Poho! Nice to meet you, Pokho! '

"Uh, yeah. Regards?"

If suddenly he nodded unexpectedly, Pokho's unusual squeaky furrows went down to the ground and picked an invigorating flower. He cleverly dug me back into the sand with his beak, so I put a little blue flower in the bag I had.

Mr. Saine lent me the towel that wet me in the fountain, so I let him wipe my hands while I was sorry.

"Pokho is a strange way to sound. Do you have a name?

'There's no name, Pokho. To protect the flowers, you don't need a name, Pokho!

"Really? But I kind of miss that... Next time I'll think of a good name!

"Thank you, Poho."

He flapped his wings with joy, so apparently he didn't have any disgust when it came to naming them. I was rather glad you were happy.

Look at the blue flower in your hand, but I wonder what the hell it is. It's glittering. It's very mysterious, and any strange effect it had is going to convince me.

'In the meantime, I'm going back to the ground, Grandpa Poho, I'm going to Poho!

'I'll be careful. I'm coming home strong, ho ho.'

"Ok Poho!"

The two furrows were apparently like grandparents and grandchildren. They say a pretty loose greeting and go for the ground with us already. A little more, I was wondering if there would be a breakup or something, but it would probably come back here when the flowers get better.

Then the period could be a month or so. Do you think it would be a little bit of a trip for your grandson? Sure, then you can snort a farewell.

With blue flowers on our backs deep in the blooming cave, we set our course for the ground... and decided to rendezvous with Mr. Alfred and the others.
