Miniature Garden Chemister

31. Immortality

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, Hinami! And it's icru!! I missed you!

Six months after traveling with Mr. Alfred and the others.

I came home safely with Ickle.

When I entered the Hinami Box Garden from the city, it flew straight to me. He takes a hug and turns around, but with the recoil.

I was planning to go home for a little while, but it's been a long time since I've had a place to install a box garden door.

Sorry, I bought a lot of sweets for souvenirs......!

"Ha. As always, Mandarin."

"And so is Ikuru!

Ickle watching with a smiling face is just an old-fashioned sight. I kind of miss this interaction, too. Howakai.

"Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah"

"Why do you have a master?"

"Oh no, you promised to come and play, didn't you?

Oh, my God!

Though he was distracted by the tuna, there was also Suzuka, the master of Ikuru, in the store.

Although it looks the same as it was six months ago... is it okay to be angry? I'm worried.

"Hinami, it's been a while"

"Yes. It's been a while, Suzuka. Glad you could make it."

"Yeah. At that time, thank you for everything. I'm not out of my mind, but I'm going out a little bit, so I guess the impact is contained."

Good. For now, that means it's okay...... right?

When I saw Suzuka safely, he bought me a large quantity of crimson restorative medicine, Garnet Potion, as usual.

Speaking of which, I recall saying before that I like Coke. Surely this world has no juice of carbonation. And all the more so if it's coke.

"Suzuka, do you like junk food?

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. You love it."

Haha laughing and affirming, Suzuka opened the lid and drank it up.

"Yummy. And then if it's also a burger, it's perfect, but this is pretty good. It doesn't taste like junk."

"It's not delicious, it's junk thinking………………."

"Yes. That's not really delicious, but you really want to eat it"

Suzuka says "It's strange, isn't it" while putting her arms together.

I did eat a couple of times, too, but it makes me want to eat from time to time. That's kind of a strange phenomenon, isn't it?

"What is it, both of you? Junk food?"

"Oh well, you don't know Ickle, do you? Well, I wonder if it feels like cheap and easy rice. When you eat it, you'll meet Hinami's crimson cure, Garnet Potion, with a drink that tastes the same."

"Phew..."

I shouldn't, I got excited about Japanese food stories.

I don't know about Ichiru, so I shouldn't have talked about it where too many of us are. You shouldn't, you have to be careful. I think I accidentally talk in a lot of places.

If it was all over the city, it could be a suspicious explosion.

"Well, if you buy it. Just go home."

"Ickle would be cold. Even though he's a master."

"Yes, sir."

Ikuru waves to Suzuka to go home. Suzuka recieves that in the usual way.

Yeah, I feel like this master has this disciple...?

"Speaking of which, was the active demon okay?

"! Yes, totally already. It looks like the Mushbar Empire took the lead in the crusade, and now there are fewer demons."

"That's good"

Yes. Actually, there are no more demons near where people live.

Mr. Salina, Mr. Alfred and Mr. Saine, a brave party. Me and Ickle who joined there. Plus adventurers everywhere, countries.

I had that cooperation, and in such a short period of time I was at peace!

Of course, there are still a lot of demons in the depths of the mountains and in the dungeons. However, you will rarely encounter demons for walking near the city.

Too overwhelming and surprising, but not so long ago, countries, adventurers' guilds and people living in this world worked together.

"Hinami is amazing!

"No, no, it's not me that's amazing, it's the adventurers, right?

I'd like you to stop saying everything like it's my work, Mr. Mauro.

"Hinami is amazing. Light magic as well as restorative medicine (potion). Besides, skill healed the earth revealed by demons."

"Until Ickle...... But then Ichiru would be amazing. There was so much more wind magic available!

"Oh, because the curse is gone. We can use attack magic now."

On this journey, Ikuru's magic also did a great job. I made the wind to support Mr. Alfred's flames and hit a powerful wind blade into the demon.

Is that also the disciple of the first brave man? Ickle must have a good sense of combat.

"Right! Now that your cooking arm is up, I'll take care of dinner!

"Maruko!? Wow, you did your best!

I'm sure for a moment, but the food must be a lot better than it was at first. I'm sure. No, never.

Makuro said, "Ikuru will help you too ~!" and disappeared toward the house.

...... yeah. With Ichiru, there is probably no problem with flavoring. I'm sure we can have a delicious meal. I'm looking forward to it.

I heard a laugh from Suzuka watching such a series of streams.

"hehe, nice and busy"

"Right.... Especially since Mazuro is always energetic. Oh, yeah. Why don't Suzuka have dinner, too?

"Huh? No, but - ……………."

"It's okay, see"

Remove the branches of purification tree from the backpack and show them to Suzuka. If you're concerned, you just have to purify it.

I'm sure Suzuka would be relieved if I gently put a tree branch on the vase of the store. After that, I want to plant it in the garden and make it an environment for people to come and see me whenever they want.

"Flowers, please let this child in." Angel Singing. "

If you speak gently of your skills, the purifying tree beside the flower will only grow a little. Branches that are only a little higher than flowers kind of soothe my mind because they seem to be protecting flowers.

"Thank you. Nice to meet you, too, Hinami."

"Eh?"

"Ickle is a curse slave, but I didn't plan on serving anyone in particular. I was wondering how I could help if I met my weird husband..."

Mr. Suzuka talked to Ichiru while letting him play with a bottle of recovery medicine (potion) in his hand.

"I'm glad Mr. Hinami is my husband. As a result, Ikuru's eyes healed. I can't thank you enough."

"Mr. Suzuka............. Ikuru is also happy with a master like Suzuka."

"Hmm. I don't know. It's like leaving without saying anything to your apprentice.

Although Suzuka denies my words, her expression seems a little happy.

I wish I could crack it down more from now on. Although it may be difficult to understand because it is defo that Ickle is a frightened face......

"Neither did Ickle, he used to not be so twisted. So this is like saying you twisted it because of me..."

"No, no. But you look tired. Ickle sounds so ickle, doesn't it?

"Yes! That's right. It feels like that creepy face is ickle."

"Right."

Again, from the sight of the master, Ichiru doesn't seem to have any problems with his equal-looking face. If you laugh a little, Suzuka laughs with you.

As the same Japanese, I want to talk a lot more. But how far can I tell you?

Is it someone who has lived in the same time as me? No, I knew it was junk food, so I don't think we're that far apart.

It was actually the Edo period! If they say anything, I don't know what to talk about.

While I was wondering if it would be okay to ask, I spoke to Suzuka softly because I really wanted to ask her something.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Suzuka... has always been in this world?

"Yeah. Right, you look like this and you live long"

…………

Master Rig said that Suzuka came to this world about 500 years ago. But he only looks a little older than me.

Is there something special like immortality, or is it incalculable in the human framework because it has God's power?

"Oh no, don't be so careful? Besides, thanks to my long life, I was able to meet Hinami and the others."

"Suzuka..."

If I lean a little, Suzuka will follow me. I'm sorry, but I really want to ask Suzuka something.

"Wow, that might make you uncomfortable"

"Yeah?"

"But I really wanted to ask Suzuka."

"Yeah."

Sometimes my heart pulses, accelerating further.

But I really want to hear it. Grab hold of your chest, calm down and chant like a spell in your heart. I look at hand sweat and think it's a shock like even a meteorite fell on my body.

Take a good look at Suzuka's pitch-black, Japanese-specific eyes... I open my mouth.

"……… How can I become immortal?
