Parallel World Pharmacy

The next day, as planned, I took Mélene on a tour of Imperial Pharmaceutical University.

I couldn't help but notice that I was going out with Clara all day, so Farma refuses to be alone and tours.

The entourage wanted to see the Divine Magic Training of the Imperial nobles more than the Pharmacy School, so they decided to go to the Divine Magic Training Field owned by the de Medicis family and observe the Divine Magic Training of the accompanying knights.

Therefore, Pharma and Mélene were the only two people to visit the school.

Mélène stops at the faculty portrait at the main gate of Yakushima.

"What the hell is this?"

"It's a picture of a professor at this medicine school."It's traditionally decorated with a portrait of the professor. "

"There's Pharma, too." You must be a single child.How many years ago was this painting? "

"It was a little over a year ago.If you grow up a little, I'll have you redraw it. "

It was painted when I took office, so I already look much younger.

When it looks like a child's face, Farma agonizes that it is not good because it can be licked by bloodthirsty students like Emerich at the beginning.

Ultimately, even if you are licked after enrolling in a university, it is okay because you can only return from lectures and exams on your own. However, if a person who wants to enroll from abroad gives up listening or goes to another university due to the appearance of Pharma, it is a real loss of opportunity.

Mélene turned a blind eye to Ellen and Bruno.

"These two know each other."

"Actually, my father is the president of this university."

Are you running a business with family and acquaintances, or are you short-staffed?

"I mean......"

The authority of the Imperial Pharmaceutical Grand General is also ruined.

Intercultural exchange is also difficult, and Farma is awkward.

"Nevertheless, when I look at the immobile painting, I feel very restless." Is it a little bustling? "

"Don't bustle!"The Empire doesn't have the technology to move paintings at the moment. "

For Mélène, the painting seems to have to be a video.

On the contrary, it can be a cultural shock for Farma.

Instead of saying hello, Mélène used magic to move the faculty portraits, so the students screamed and rejoiced.

"It looks like the painting is alive!"

Wow, is that Professor de Medici's divine technique?

Mélene laughs with a fuzzy smile at the reactivity of the students.

Though I thought it was annoying, it was an ordinary girl, and Pharma caught a glimpse of her rustic side.

"The impact is amazing, but..."

With that in mind, Farma looks at her moving portrait with a strange face.

"Can I stop now?"Don't make me look like that.And don't move my father's face. "

No, it's a modest prank.

Mélene troubles Pharma with a childlike prank, but she doesn't really understand.Well, since we are children, Pharma writes on the bulletin board and gives up, saying, "The painting will move now due to various circumstances."

"Professor de Médicis! Hey! What are you doing!"

The secretaries of the university heard the disturbance and came out of the office in straw.

When the chief executive sees the moving picture, he protests in confusion, but Farma can't help it.

No, it's not my fault. I can't get it back.

“Even if your companion did.What are you going to do about it? It's a drug of great quality! "

It seemed to be the responsibility of the prime mover, and Pharma was divided.Mélène laughed angrily, but she heard the secretary-general's wish that she should forgive her.

"So, do you want to follow visitors with a gaze, smile, scold suspicious people, give directions, and sleep at night?"

"Oh, that's fine."

"Because it's too scary! How long will it last?"

"Until I'm good."

Farma's stubbornness was disappointing, and the general secretary liked it, so it went on as it was.Farma's chest hurts when she thinks that a student who comes to college at night must have fainted by witnessing a portrait of her sleeping.

From the beginning, it was Mélène, who went on a rampage, but the next thing I saw was the herb garden.

She said she really wanted to see it, so she was invited to the greenhouse attached to the herb garden where the herbs and medicinal flowers bloom.Herbal gardens grow medicinal herbs, poisonous herbs, and fruit trees from all over the world, and they are also used for practical training in medicinal herbal preparations.

Mélene stops Pharma as she gently unbutton her chest with her hands.

I'm not going to take it off anymore.

"Why should we follow the rules of the Empire?"

I lived in thin clothes on the continent, so it must be hot in the clothes of the Empire.

Even with extreme skin exposure, it's their culture.

It would be wrong of Farma to say it as an embarrassment.

When I thought I was in trouble, I heard a voice calling out the name of Farma from outside the greenhouse.

“Is Professor Farma de Medici here?”

Yes, here it is.

"Oh! I'm the general secretary of the École impériale d 'art."

"Um... can I help you?"

To be honest, I can't think of a reason why a professor at the University of Fine Arts would come all the way to the herb garden to look for Pharma.

Visiting Farma is a female professor of fine arts who brings together her long blue hair in a unique arrangement.I've seen it at the palace once.

"If you happen to be passing in front of your school, maybe there is a moving painting at the main gate!"When I asked a passing student if it was Professor de Medici's magic trick!I can't stand it anymore!My soul has been shaken! "

Farma can't stop professors admiring Mélène's magic in a passionate pose.

It seems that Mélène's performance echoed the artist's line, so I solved the misunderstanding quickly.

"Actually, it's not me, it's her technique."She has come from the New World to visit Mélène. ”

“Great (Très bien)! Please don't forget to teach at my school!The reward is to bounce! "

“I'm sorry, but she doesn't live on the continent, so I don't want to talk about it.”

Farma stops, but Professor Melenay forces her to hold her hands and pull her to the strength of pressure.

"What do you mean?"

Pharma asks Mélene a question because she thinks it's not clear.

"This guy is a painter and he tries to teach art at school.I want you to teach me the magic that moves Mélène's paintings.But you can't do magic, can you? "

Farma turns Mélene down to the scout who came from an unexpected place.

All you have to do is nod to Farma's words.Mélène thought for a moment and drew her conclusions.

"No, I can't tell you."

That's right, that's right!

The professor didn't have an island to attach to, but Farma was relieved.

We will officially send you a reply from our house later.

Farma pushes the professor back for the time being.

Mélène was waving to the professor as she dropped her shoulders and returned.

"I'll tell you what, Melanie and her ancestors inherited the magic of the Mylaka tribe from generation to generation, so you can teach it to people so easily, right?"

"Why do you think so? Don't you want to know?Instead of Farma translating Harris' words and eagerly teaching us about herbs and medicines, I wondered if there was anything the Imperials could teach us, but it seemed impossible.Even though it has no magic power, it doesn't make sense to teach it. "

It was unexpected to Farma that they would consider repaying me for the time being.They are walking up to me.Pharma imagines that the professor's offer would be like Melene asking you to learn the magic of the Empire nobility.

(Even if you can't use magic, the temple seems to be a great place to use your spirit manipulation skills.)

Mélene is so defenseless, I'm a little worried.

She doesn't seem to show much vigilance to someone she once trusted.

"You know, I'd like you to accept this as a catchphrase, but you can't cut non-force bargaining cards so easily."It's fundamental to international negotiations. "

"When I'm talking to you, I don't really understand.Why are you imitating people from other countries? "

"I'm in Saint-Fleuve, but I don't only serve the people of the Empire."I want many people to be happy, not just in some country.I want the descendants of the Melenes to laugh on the continent a hundred years from now.If I tell you about the magic of Mélene and the others, you might even be abused. "

If you say that, it will be a lie, but it was the heart of Pharma who knew the history of American pioneering.Now that we have the protection of the Empire, it doesn't necessarily mean that we won't be targeted by the invaders in the future.

"Today, the Saint-Fleuve Empire is the greatest empire in the world, and Saint Elizabeth is trying to withdraw from the continent with respect for the Melenesians.But what they want to know is that they should stay down.The spells of the Melenes will be more powerful than fighting each other, even if it means working with the Empire and other nations.You can't teach the other person the essence of military power, even if you can't use it. "

Even if Elizabeth doesn't set it up, I don't know the next leader.

Pharma and Mélène were alone in the herb garden.There is no sign of anyone around.

The two sat down on a bench in the herb garden and continued their conversation.

"Thank you for your advice. We're all alone, so I'd like to exchange more information with you."

No, that's why you shouldn't tell the people of the Empire about the magic.

Now that I've explained it to you, Farma wants to stick with it, but Mélene silently shook her head to the side.

You're the god of medicine, aren't you?

Huh?

"My spirit has been investigating during the night.There is a wise spirit on my continent called the Ancestral Spirit Paral.That spirit was afraid to call you the "Spirit King".And as soon as I came to this country and checked out the gurus, I knew what you were called. "

In just one night, Mélène used her spirit to investigate the Imperial Capital of Saint-Flouve and identify Pharma.Melenie may have come to our continent to investigate the nature of Pharma.

I thought it was a mistake, but Mélene was sure of the right answer when she saw Farma's reaction.

"There are no great spirits on my continent, but there is no God.I don't know what kind of existence it is.But the God of medicine, though he be an enemy of the spirit, he seemed to be an ally of men.Because you tried to keep our family alive beyond the ocean, decursed Lake Pichka, and returned without taking anything from us.They are willing to translate Harris' diary and welcome us to see what happened yesterday and today.Perhaps the god of medicine has mercy on people for no reason. Isn't that right? "

Mélene gave Pharma an innocent smile.

Farma thinks it's fresh to be laughing like this.

"... I don't know, I can't answer well, but..."

"I'll tell you that you don't seem to know the magic or spirits of the continent."By the way, I'm not exposing my intel to an enemy human, I'm confessing to the God of Medicine.It may be in Harris' diary, but it's probably not. ”

"Okay, I'm going to ask you that."

In order for the Mylaka to be able to practice their magic, they will be judged by the ancestral spirits (Maate) among their children.Those who have been judged become magicians who have been given magical powers according to their qualities.There was no curse pulse that corresponded to the divine pulse.Since the person chosen by the spirit is a magician, he cannot become an enemy of the spirit.Of course, there is no such thing as evil spirits.Melene told Farma that system.

(The Divine Magic System and the Magic System are completely different... even though Lutareka is the same)

Lutareka had something in common, and the concept was completely different.

It's like trying to change the operation of the supernatural forces between geographically isolated continents...

(Is this continent really under the jurisdiction of the Grave Guard?)

Such questions arise.

“Little by little, I'm getting it.Is there a legacy of giants and giant spirits in the magic system? "

"No one has ever heard of such a story.What is a giant? "

"I see, don't you know... thank you"

Mélène was bending her neck, but she confessed to Farma and said it was refreshing.

"Well, here's the question."What can the god of medicine do? "

"It's the same as the pharmacist. He creates medicine and heals people.No matter what kind of person it is. "

"Do you grow these plants for that purpose?"It's true that everything in this greenhouse is full of unfamiliar plants. "

"I'm sure the vegetation is different from the plants on this continent."There may be similarities, but they may not be the same as those on the continent where Melenay is.Only a few medicines can be taken from plants, so use only purely purified ingredients. ”

“So the plants of my continent are not available as medicine?”

Mélene is discouraged that even if she brings back her knowledge of the medicinal plants on this continent, it doesn't make sense if they can't be used.

It reminds me that Farma thought about what to do.

“By the way, Harris's diary said something about medicinal plants and herbs.There are certainly ingredients on the continent where Mélène lives. ”

"How can I use that as a reference?"

"We have to check the effects one by one."It's dangerous to swallow it as it is. "

Farma checks Harris' diary with Mélene.

Gravel Plant,

Box Tree,

Blue cohosh,

Hydrangea

There are medicinal plants recorded by Harris, such as.

"Do you think these can be used as medicine?"

Mélene looks at it with anticipation, so Pharma is a pain in the ass.

(By the way, all of these plants don't come out of the limelight.)

It is true that Harris' knowledge dates back to the early 20th century, and its effectiveness is not recommended, as it has been denied by modern earth pharmacology.Mélène shouldn't really take it, so keep firmly in mind that she can't use it.

"It's not working... even though it was a record of a great magician"

Because Mélène is easy to understand, it is awkward to say that Pharma was bad.

"You can make new medicines from the medicinal plants in this herb garden by bringing them back to the continent and cultivating them.I can open a pharmacy on the mainland and send a pharmacist there. How about that? ”

If Mélène wishes, she may consider opening a branch of another world pharmacy on the mainland.

There will be many pharmacists interested in coming to the New Continent.

"Then no, then if the drugstore retreats, there's nothing left."We will suffer from the disease, nostalgic for the memory of the medicines that were convenient.I can't do it with my knowledge of borrowing.It has to be real. We need to be smart. "

Mélène says this because after losing the real thing with the gun that Harris brought, the Mailaka couldn't build their own personal guns.

That's why Harris' technique is one-generation only.

Without understanding the principles of guns, the Mylaka tribe could not discover the ingredients of gunpowder or how to make gunpowder.

Harris was directly educated by the Curse, killed by tribal strife, not passed on to future generations, and the technology did not last.Mélene seemed to hate it.

“All right, you want to learn the science and technology of this continent, including pharmacy, in earnest.But I can't do it overnight. There's no miracle that one day technology will suddenly become available.Perhaps none of the Mailaka people have enough basic schooling to learn anything.If you're going to study here for years and finish your studies, I'll be happy to accommodate you.Permission to study under St. Elizabeth? "

Farma rejoices as much as I do when it's a good story.

There is not a single person in the faculty of this pharmaceutical university who refuses to be educated.

Is Mélene going to study abroad?

"It is a motivated and promising member of the family."

"If that happens again, let me know."

“If we learn how the world works, we may be able to let go of the spell.”

"Does Mélene want to let go of her spell?"But why do you think that? "

You know that, don't you?

Even if she was skilled in magic and magic, she would one day use up her powers.

Anyone who loses power must be frightened of assassination.

The talent for magic is due to personal characteristics and will not be passed on to future generations.

The Warlock has a short lifespan and is the first to be sacrificed in battle.

He seemed to want to do something about it.

With a magic skill that threatened Farma and her status as the head of the Mylaka clan, she had a modest wish in her heart.

“Do you think it's wrong for all the Mylaka to let go of their magic?”

I don't think so. The Divine Magician has the same conflict.

The same was true of the Divine Magician.

The presence of divine power determines everything in this country.

Even though they are the same people, there is a division between the nobility and the common people, and the common people are not taken over by the pivot of the country.

The nobleman feels responsible for gaining divine power and scrapes himself with intense training every day to fulfill his duty.

Is that really all right?

Farma and Mélene felt the same way.

If the world is at peace and no evil spirits occur.

Without evil spirits, I hope that there will be days when everyone can live normally without using divine magic. I think that science is better than divine magic when it comes to the inheritance of technology.

It was vaguely felt as a human being, but since Farma came to this world, surrounded by aristocrats, he had never told anyone.

There is no better way to make the privileges enjoyed by the nobles useless.

"That's why I want everyone to be able to learn useful technology that can be used by everyone, not just a limited number of people."However, in the current situation where evil spirits are walking, it is still difficult for the magicians of this country to abandon their magic. "

"As I said the other day, if the evil spirit is what is threatening the people of this country, then we, the Mylaka, may be able to quell it without competing with the spirit."

"I appreciate that, but it's not just evil spirits."There's something bigger than a spirit. "

What?

The giants lurking in the different dimensions would be the "tombkeepers" of this world.

The graveyard guard is driving it to stop the collapse of the world.

The advent of the patron saint, who continues to emerge from other worlds, also strengthens the society that is dependent on divine magic.

The journey is endless.

Still, does it make sense to move forward one step at a time?

I felt like I had an understanding of Mélene as I searched.

Is that what you just called a giant?

"Yes, it is."

By the way, are you the same size?

Mélene tried to look at Farma's whole body.

"You mean me? I'm not going to change."

"The size of the spirit is free, but even though the god of medicine is not tied to the body, can it only be that size?"If you think you're small, just grow up and eat your opponent.Spirits cannibalize each other. How about the god of medicine? "

It was an unexpected viewpoint.

Recall that the Potion God Staff was telescopic, so that it could be used no matter how big the Potion God was.

Maybe it had such a function.

Farma herself had bound herself to the size of a human being.

”But... that giant's power is so powerful that even if he had a way to grow up, he didn't feel like he could win at all.”

"It is human prayer to strengthen the spirit.Isn't there anything that makes God stronger? "

The pitiful words that Mélène unleashes one after another seem to shake the very essence of Farma's existence.

Farma remembered.

Whenever people prayed to the Potion God, it was noticing that some system in this world was gathering power in Pharma.

And again, I remember.

In the fading memory of his previous life, he asked his former alumni, Nakajima, a question.

If we encounter such a “god,” do we have no choice but to surrender?

Indeed, Nakajima said that if he lowered "God" in the same space-time, it would not be impossible to fight back.

When Pharma has amassed enough power to gather the prayers and divine power of people from all over the world.

the tyrannical giants who have been desperately consumed by the many patron saints brought in from different worlds,

Drag the "Grave Guard" out of the dimensional gap,

Will there be a chance to defeat it and take over as the keeper of the world?

After that, what happens to my own existence?
