Parallel World Pharmacy

Chapter 7 Lesson 16: The Breakthrough of the Intercontinental Talks

All of Melene and the others landed on an uninhabited island in response to the discussion.

They were greeted on the beach by the gods of the Emperor, Pharma, Ellen, Pare, Noah, and Clara.

To avoid intimidating the natives, most of the expedition stands elsewhere.

We need a calm place to talk.

"Do you eat dried meat and dried fruit?"

The Holy Emperor tried to soothe the spot, recommending the emergency food brought in from the Imperial City, but Mélene did not respond with her neck on the side.

The holy emperor who came off the fruit chews the fruit while saying, "Is that so?"

"Shall we stop shabby exchanges?"Let's talk first. "

Elizabeth and Mélene faced each other and sat directly on the beach.

Farma sat behind the Holy Emperor.

There's a magician behind Mélène, but I can't hear them because of the distance.

Even though we were in a conversation, it was an air of instantaneous instability.

Now that the field is ready, there is a native who has approached the podium.

The Holy Emperor introduced him.

"You know, Magata, the magician."Magata, I'm going to ask you to follow my interpreter. "

A young man named Magata, a magician chosen by the Holy Emperor from among the captives, silently bows to Mélène and summons a spirit to the scene.

The words of the Holy Emperor are simultaneously translated by the spirits of Magata and passed on to Mélene.

Mélène turned her gaze toward Magata, but Magata did not align her gaze with Mélène.

Mélene and the Holy Emperor began to exchange words.

I'd like to say hello again. I am Elizabeth, the head of a nation far from here, the Saint-Fleuve Empire.This time, I sincerely apologize that the convoy I dispatched landed and stepped into your zone of life without permission. "

Mélene seemed surprised to hear a word of apology from the Emperor.

The light of suspicion in Mélene's eyes was beyond the will of the Holy Emperor.

She returns her words with a neat attitude.

"You don't have to apologize to me.Anything that enters Lake Piticaca will die.That is atonement, and you shall be redeemed with death. "

Mélene seemed to believe that the expedition would be wiped out, including Elizabeth.

But Elizabeth was not upset either.

I'm not in Lake Pichica.

But I saw most of you go in.

It's true that almost all of us went into the lake unprotected, but since we have drugs against this disease, we won't all die, thank you for your concern.

Not a disease, but a curse?

No, it's a disease. The talented pharmacists under my command say so. "

Mélene seemed to be skeptical of her ears.

"If it's a disease, is there a technique that works?"Even if you were sick, it would be a shallow day for you to invade. "

"No, it's medicine. It's substance, not spiritual."There are various diseases of people, livestock, and land in the world, including this continent. There are those who gather them into tunnels to explore cures, accumulate knowledge step by step over time, and aim to command to overcome all diseases.Doctors and pharmacists, engineers and researchers.Their epidemiological view points to this as a disease. ”

Mélène pushed silently without arguing.

They believe that the curse of Lake Pichka is lethal.

Farma sideways listened, wondering if she thought it was obvious.

I see. Well then, I'll let you fully show me the effects of the medicine.Now, what brings you all the way here for? ”

It's just interest and research.

Not the plundering of resources?

Mélene provokes the Holy Emperor.

That's true. Our Empire has vast lands and abundant resources and impeccable reserves of precious metals.Even if we don't bother to expand our territory across the ocean to this continent, our nation will be well fed. "

Mélene stares at the Holy Emperor with suspicion.

"Let's just say whatever we want with our mouths.Then why did you reach out to this continent?It must have come looking for resources. "

Mélène asks the Holy Emperor unrelenting questions.

"The expedition sent to this continent was interested in the pure way of the world.After all, we thought this continent was deserted.If there was a continent there, I wanted to make a map and find out what was going on on the other side.That's how I thought I should cleanse the world of darkness.

Because of such things, have we destroyed our ancestral spirits!What is a spirit to us! My family was just like me. "

Mélène's words are filled with heat, which conveys how true they are.

It was not easy to appease their anger, and Farma put a suggestion to Mélene because she thought the anger was justified.

"I'm sorry for the shallow behavior.I can offer you a way to restore the ancestral spirits you admire. ”

Pharma bursts forward to reveal the seeds of the plague god tree to Mélene.

This is a tool that summons the surrounding spirits infinitely.I don't know if your ancestral spirit will come back, but I think it's worth a try. "

There was a preconception of calling the evil spirits on the Pharma continent, but since there are no evil spirits in this land, the use of the plague god tree also changes.

If you can't get the effect you were expecting, Pharma can destroy the [Epidemic God Tree].

I had such a plan, but Mélene doesn't seem to believe in Farma.

"Yes, you. Who are you?"Everyone can't grasp who they are. It is not of this world.Can you trust it? I'm afraid of you. "

"This man is a pharmacist who serves me."

The Holy Emperor explains that to Pharma.

Is there a reason for that!

Farma refrained from saying anything extra, as the Holy Emperor was speaking.

Unfortunately, it's true. Then we can't help it even if we curse each other, so let's ask each other's requests. Let's start with that.

The Holy Emperor turns water to Mélene.

"It's about recapturing my people and killing all of you."If your homeworld is far away, we cannot return it alive.If it doesn't have the effect of a curse, I'll kill you. "

Of course, my compatriots are safe, and I've been treating them with courtesy since before.

Where did you hide it?

I'll teach you that if you talk to me, and I'll let you go.Why do you want us all destroyed?They said they'd go back to where they were. "

Elizabeth asks in a calm tone, not being overbearing.

Mélène still has a pale smell that reveals her emotions, but the Holy Emperor is hand-knotted.

If we let them come back alive, more invaders will come here.

Even if I told you that I wouldn't let the emperor of the continent do that?

Trust me! I'm hiding my true nature because it's bad, but I'm sure you're trying to root us out.

Magada, who was translating Mélène's words, clenched her mouth.

Then, with courage, I gave my opinion to Mélène.

"Chief. Excuse me from the side.I have to tell you one thing.I don't know what they really meant, but earlier there was an incident that corroborated the saying that there was no harm. ”

What do you mean?

Mélène looked shocked at the pain she had received from her compatriots.

'We were killed by you once.You may have gotten Rutareka, but you didn't get used to the treatment and blew it up by mistake.We all died and rose once.It wasn't you who protected us, it was the boy who was there. ”

Magada pointed her finger at Farma.

It can't be that... I'll put my hands on you!

Mélène's eyes filled with tears, but her ears were blocked if she couldn't accept it.

Yeah, that's right. So it must have been an accidental blast.In anticipation of your failure, this boy has just given us a resurrection pill, or defended us against a bulwark.If you're going to destroy us, why would you need to do that?I wish you'd just left us to die for nothing. "

Magata told Mélene herself.

Mélene looked at Pharma as if she couldn't believe it.

Farma doesn't know what to say to her.

Her abilities have killed her people.

She is not mature enough to withstand the shock.

Farma is lost, but she receives the words of Magata and spins the words of her followers.

"Mr. Mélène, that ability is called Rutareka.I have used that ability for three years.I have a long history of use, so I can erase not only water, but all known substances. ”

Mélène snorted her lips and did not cuddle her mouth.

I found out something on top of that.Its power saves people, but it's the easiest way to kill them.I will also kill all my enemies and allies without distinction. ”

How much nerves does Farma's magic wipe from the ordinary so that his powers don't run rampant?

Always, Farma has something in mind.

If you mistake the object of material creation.

If we multiply the images of the molecular structure differently.

Why don't you take the wrong amount of substance?

What if we misplaced the target coordinates?

One mistake of one's own, a person dies of everything.

Material creation and material erasure must be strictly controlled.

"That's why I never directed my ability to deprive the enemy or allies of body fluids or water for the purpose of attack."It is also the ability to inflict immediate death. "

Farma told Mélene that she feared above all the lethality of the ability to erase matter.

”When you put your hand on us when you took Rutareka.It is now confirmed that the accidental shooting will kill them, who are your allies.Its ability requires absolute control.That's why I was prepared not to die. That's all. '

Why would you do that?

Because if you had killed your people, I would have thought that despair was too much for you.

Mélene seemed to feel something in Farma's words.

I see... thank you for saving my people.

Farma accepted the words that came out of her mouth honestly, with a complicated feeling.

Then what is your hope?

Mélene seemed to be having trouble handling her swirling emotions.

The Holy Emperor calls out to her when her mind is paralyzed and her temper is diminished.

Nothing. My empire simply withdraws from this continent.

What's in it for you?Are you going to go home without any help? I don't understand. "

Mélène asked back in a stunned manner.

There's nothing to gain. You won't be disappointed to go home without your hands.I have received information that there are humans on this continent and that they are building a civilization.Because of that information, there was a great harvest. "

The Holy Emperor said that with a refreshing clarity.

Elizabeth had no intention of making things worse, and she was calm.

However, if you are looking for a reason to accept an unconditional withdrawal, we would like to establish a friendly relationship with you and engage in trade.

"No, we have no profit."

Mélène glanced at Elizabeth's offer with a grim face.

Even if you think about it a little bit more, Farma and I will have a good time,

(Oh, I don't know what this means to trade.)

Judging from Mélène's expression, Farma begins to explain trade from the beginning.

This is what trade is all about.

Mélène seems to have learned the purpose of trade in Pharma's explanation.

It shouldn't be a bad thing for them, but they don't understand the benefits of trade.

Mélène had a rotten attitude.

”Is there anything you want here?If I return your words as they are, there will be plenty of jewels, gold, and abundant food on this continent. "

So, what about the medicine?

Mélene screamed at Farma's question.

Perhaps Pharma is bothered by the fact that there is a profit in trade.

One more push and Pharma keeps pushing.

What's the cure for the curse on Lake Piticaca?What information is available to prevent illness? ”

After that, they quickly concluded a trade treaty thanks to the presentation of a few things that they wanted so much that they could get out of their throats.

Thanks to the direct judgment of the Holy Emperor, it was an instantaneous flow.



Unexpectedly, Farma and the others were nostalgic for the Melenes and came to a settlement.

I don't know if it's completely solved, but at least there's no more reason to be hostile.

Farma had just returned to the continent with Melene and the others, and immediately liberated the plague tree.

The tree of the plague gods had green leaves, and reborn beautifully like the tree of the gods.

Oh, it's not the same as when you planted it on the continent.Normally, it turned into a tree.When I planted it on the continent, I brought in evil spirits one after another, and it was very vicious. "

It is said that there is no evil spirit in the land guarded by the ancestral spirit.

The danger disappeared from Mélène's expression and she looked relieved.

It's true, I know exactly what you mean.I think we should change the name, let's leave this here

Then we'll name it the Great Tree (Pliteca).

Farma accepted the words honestly now.

When Pharma and Merene lay down looking up at the plague god tree, the ancestral spirits that were thought to have disappeared began to gather around one another and the plague god tree.

From the shade of the trees, they began to emerge one after another.The spirits erased by the Pharma seemed to be gathering around the Pharma to protest at first, but Mélene exclaimed and left.

Ah, Auntie.

Auntie? The spirit of your ancestors. "

I'm glad... it looks like I was safe.

Not returning to her numbers, Mélene seemed to be able to see her grandparents' spirits, and suddenly her venom was gone.

In their culture that cherishes their ancestors, Pharma has no sense of what is common to them as Japanese people.

(Even in Japan, you call your ancestors to Obon......)

Mélene, who began to forgive her heart little by little to the rhetorical Farma, revealed her inner self.The tone has slowly changed.

It was called Farma, wasn't it?

Yeah, I do.

What's the meaning of the name? Our names always make sense.You guys have it, too. "

What do you mean... I don't know if it means medicine or something like that?

... that's all you need to do?

It's not very good.

I want you to tell Bruno about the name complaint.

My name is Mélene and I mean the morning sea.

I think it's a good name.

Farma expressed her impressions and feelings.

Pharma and Mélène continue to introduce themselves through the spirit.

I was scared to use Rutareka.I'm sure that every time I let out a little attention, I run rampant and turn off all kinds of water.It's so easy to kill people. "

... that's right.

No matter how much training you have and how accustomed you are to using your magic, you can't overturn it.

Neither material elimination nor material creation is necessarily an ability that benefits the human body.

Losing everything in one mistake.

"I may not be qualified to use this power."Aren't you scared because you have two of these things? "

I'm scared. But at first, I couldn't help myself, but I was properly trained by the first person to become a mentor.

If I hadn't trained with Ellen first, I wouldn't know what would have happened if I had two abilities: Material Creation and Material Erasure.

Farma is grateful for the courage and dedication of Ellen, who feared the power of Farma and was prepared to die while attending special training.

Anyway, we are carefully sharpening our focus and using our abilities.

If you want to avoid mistakes, you should try not to use them.

You're a teacher... I don't have anything like that.

Is it a loss of self-confidence?

Farma listens to her thoughts.

Would I have done better if I had a mentor?

"I think you need some knowledge that you don't know yet to bring out Rutareka's performance."Besides, no matter how much you train, when you use your magic, you have the same fear that you might kill people. "

{... I guess so.Are you afraid of killing people too? ”

That's what scares me the most. By the way, what were you going to use Rutareka's abilities for? ”

Farma decides to grant her wish.

If we find out, there may be a way to reconcile.

There is a legend that if you wipe the water off Lake Piticaca, you can break the curse on Lake Piticaca.But with that much water, I couldn't get rid of it for lack of magic power.The curse of Lake Piticaca made it a rule for us to live in an underground cave.Once the curse is lifted, there will come a day when you can live on the earth. ”

Well, I mean...

Farma organizes her story.

Lake Pichikaka is an infestation area for resident schistosomiasis.

The area around the lake is also swampy, so there may be freshwater shells that are intermediate hosts on a wide area.So they chose to live underground.

Believing in it as a curse, for generations...

(The life underground is harsh.I also have problems in terms of hygiene.a lot of people will get sick)

Farma, did you use Lutareka to wipe the water off Lake Piticaca?

I think we did it.

Farma answered modestly, taking into account her usual physical condition.

Give me that amount of water

Mélène fell from her knee.

There's no problem in saying that it's an upstream water source, for example

To show his divine power, Farma floated a mass of water in the sky that covered the sky.

Its behavior is controlled by the divine power of Pharma, and the water that covers the sky like a thick cloud drifts only in the air and does not fall on the ground.

You can turn off this amount of water or more.

I can't believe it... isn't there a ceiling?

I'd be embarrassed if they told me to turn off the ocean, but I could do it at the lake.

Mélène seemed to realize she was defeated in just one word.

I'll get Rutareka back to you, so why don't you make a deal to dry up Lake Pichica?

It looks like an unequal deal, but is it okay?

Even if you predict with malicious intent, Farma can escape after reclaiming the Medicine Spirit Mark.Perhaps it is a proposal in anticipation of that possibility, and Pharma is puzzled by the sudden change in Mélene's attitude.

"I've come to understand that you're the one who doesn't do that kind of thing.It's intuitive.

Thank you for that.

Mélène gave up possessing Lutareka, peeled off her skin with a red thunderous pattern, and stuck a sticker to Farma's upper arm.

Lutareka turned white from red fluorescence and eventually changed to blue, unfolding the medicine mark.

It's so easy!

This ability of Mélène can never be imitated by Pharma.

In this way, the second medicine god crest, which corresponded to the material erasure, returned to Farma's arm.

They seem to have been a pair of patterns from the beginning.

"Thank you. Then I'll borrow this."Also, if you want to use it, please speak up. "

I won't be here for a while.

Lutareka and the Medicine Emblem were not owned by either, but were meant to be shared across the continent.

I think that would be better, Pharma said.

When I came to this world with both the Pharma and the Pharmaceutical Divine Marks, I wondered many times.

Even though it was a sacred crest where the patron saints of each generation lived, it was only two of them.

Because of this, the power of the gods is enormous.

But wasn't it something someone should have gotten hold of?

One might have robbed Mélene of what she had to get her hands on, and if so, it's not fair that she has a monopoly.

I shouldn't have felt that way.

The blue medicine god crest that returned to Farma's arm rooted and grew deep in Farma's divine vein.

(I wonder if the sacred crest is optimized by the presence or absence of magical powers and divine powers......)

Even if I think about it, I don't really know why it's happening.

Pharma, who has regained the ability to erase the substance, promptly fulfills her promise before being prompted not to regret that Melenie has returned the Potions to Pharma.

She scratched her right hand against Lake Piticaca in front of her, wiping out the lake water and completely drying the surrounding swamp.

Mélène fell from her knee in a spectacular sight.

He showed me the difference between my powers and said he was succumbed.

It was a word of thanks that came out of her mouth.

Thank you.

'This is the way. It was only because you gave it back to me that I could do it.Now that I've fulfilled my promise.Let's keep it dry for a few years until the intermediate host dies. "

The aging problem that has troubled their clan, and the solution to it, was a breakfast for Pharma.

Farma supplied them with a new source of water after confirming that there were no intermediate host shellfish in place of Lake Pichica.

Mélene and the others were relieved to finally be able to set up a dwelling on the ground.

All the indigenous people who were held under house arrest were released unharmed.

With regard to trade, we have an arrangement whereby an Imperial ship brings trades to the Gabonese mainland.

An atmosphere of harmony is nurtured, and hatred is brought to an end.

All right, let's go home. It's dawn and we're going back to the Imperial City!

The Holy Emperor lifted the boundary of the Protective Temple and ordered a light return.

Ellen, Pallet, and the expedition were naturally exhausted.

From now on, even if I return at full speed, will I be able to perform my official duties in time?

Farma is in a hurry to burn the beads, carriage, and combustible materials of the balloon to make a burner, filling it with air, warming it, and inflating it.

The expedition was surprised to get into the carriage and look up at the balloon as they opened their mouths.

Did you like it, Holy Majesty?

Noah greeted the Holy Emperor who had entered bedtime with a blanket on his head.

“It would have been good for expanding the empire.If we hold down another land without reaching out from the continent itself..... "

Noah, an Imperial nobleman, has no choice but to have the new heaven and earth he thought he could get.

If you take advantage of the advance advantage of entering this continent and expand the empire's territory, you will definitely strengthen your nation.

She abandoned the painting.

"That's fine. We can't let the natives get anxious.The rest are also the parents of others.It is a mistake to force them to live in fear. "

"Your Holiness, you have my permission."

While looking up at a balloon with a height of 20 meters, Farma agrees with the Holy Emperor subtly while manipulating the crown rope.

On Earth, after the discovery of the New World, the history of genocide began against the indigenous people.

I sincerely hope that this expedition to the new continent will not follow a similar course.

However, while the Holy Emperor is still alive, in this world he is lucky not to be able to do so.

"Well, I think so too."If trade is to take place for a longer time than this, there may be other countries' intentions to bystand it.However, their indigenous territories must be protected by my honor. "

Whatever the personal opinion of the most powerful and most powerful emperor in the world, the rogue appears everywhere.

I don't think Pharma is a threat to the lives of Melene and the others.

As Farma processed the crown rope and now ascended, Mélène, who had been disappearing for a long time, pushed away with a fierce momentum.

I just had to get in and put my hand on the carriage.

What's the matter? Are you coming to the Empire too?

The Holy Emperor was very welcome to bring Melenie home.

But Mélène didn't mean to.

That's not true. Farma, can you read this?I heard you could read the gun instructions. "

Mélène hands a booklet to Pharma.

When Farma received it from Mélene, Mélene spun around and landed on the ground.

It's quite thick. I wonder what it is.

When Farma pauses to take off for the time being, he puts his gaze on the booklet.

First of all, I'm surprised at the thickness.

Even if it is a booklet, it is still surprising because it is not like a piece of paper, but it is bound in leather like a notebook.

The relic of the great magician Harris.It's an ancient document found in a cave called Lacanga.But we can't read this letter. "

I can read it in the same language as before.It's thick, and I'll have it translated by next year, okay? "

Farma opens the booklet while taking pictures on her smartphone, assuming that it will be returned.

The text is skipped, but it is dated and looks like a diary.

As I thought, it is written in English.

”... this looks like a diary.”

What is a diary?

It's like a memoir of a day

Is that so? I was wondering if there was anything written about the ancient magic.It was kept as an artifact by the remains of Harris, the owner of this book. "

Can't you call the ancestral spirits?You can call them and ask them for more details. "

Pharma wonders why Harris's spirit is asking her to decipher her diary without asking what she is wondering.

"Her spirit has never been summoned by my magic."Maybe he's not on this earth anymore. ”

Mélène is a person who passed away in the past, and can be summoned by anyone if the spirit is not moving in the place.

She has been unable to summon the spirit Harris for a long time.

To them, Pharma is the only one who can decipher the books that were treated like the Bible.

(That's right, you'll be concerned about the content.)

Farma knew how Mélene felt, so she undertook the translation.

All right, but it'll take a while because there's so much.

I'm not in a hurry. Bring it to me the next time you trade. "

All right, I'll take care of it. I'll always bring it to you. "

The snug skin of the bookcase gave it a used texture, telling the weight of the years.

On the ground, the Melenes waved their hands wide.

The expedition also waved back and said goodbye with a refreshed expression.

It was a lot of things, but it was a good curtain pull that benefited each other, wasn't it?

"Thanks to the sacrifice under the Holy Spirit."

Farma is not flattering, but heartfelt.

After all, the leader of the Empire must be her.

I realized that too.

When the balloon was safely taken off and entered a steady flight, Farma began to look through the booklet.
