Parallel World Pharmacy

June 20, 1152.

Farma, Ellen, and Lotte rode the carriage to the Imperial Capital Shrine in a classical outfit that was unusually busy.

The information board at the temple entrance decorated with rose blossoms says Emerich Bauer and Josephine Barrier's wedding.

"I'm glad the weather is nice." The sky also seems to be blessing you both. "

Lotte looks happy.

That's right.

It was about to rain at the ceremony, so Farma, who had been distracted that it shouldn't be a bad start, changed the surrounding weather.

"I can't believe these two are getting married... there's something deeply emotional about this."

Ellen, who was also their instructor, was moved to tears.

"It was hard until you rowed here, wasn't it?"

Farma remembers their journey.

"That's right. You've been tied up in misery." I'm glad I didn't have to run away. "

"I'm glad you're here. I hope you and your parents can reconcile soon."

They didn't start either way, and as they spent time together in the same lab, it seemed that they were going to be good partners with nature.

Four years ago, he said, "I hate living with others. I don't think about marriage at all,” Josephine said, but it seems that feeling has changed little by little. Since my lab mate and I are together from morning to evening, I can see the good and bad parts of the opponent, and it seems that I can live with him.

The two of them were planning to get naturalized when they graduated from Pharmaceutical University and became first-year PhD students.

Farma and Ellen were surprised to hear of their intention to engage.

Even so, the consent of the parents and the signing of the marriage certificate are mandatory in the noble society.

It was tough until they asked Josephine's parents for permission to marry.

Due to his previous achievements, Emerich held the baronet status of the Saint-Fleuve Empire individually. Moreover, he was a historic family member of the great nobility of the Spine Kingdom, and his identity was not derived from Mezzaliance (marriage with different status), but Emerich's genetic disease was deeply rooted in opposition from Josephine's relatives.

Emerich's father had already died of a genetic disease and his mother was missing.

There are five younger siblings who may bite their shins.

There is a need for offspring between Emerich and Josephine, but it is a problem for children with genetic diseases.

Farma was also surprised and persuaded by this, but his parents' opposition to Gorigori's demand to stand around in the aristocratic society was so deep-rooted that it could not work on one rope.

The discussion followed the parallel, with parents imposing the conditions of treatment for lethal family insomnia and permission to marry if the method is not inherited by the offspring.

Fatal familial insomnia is an autosomal dominant inherited disease. Either of the autosomal genes inherited from the parents is normal, but if there is an abnormality in one, there is a 50% chance of inheriting.

There is also a 50% chance that a child will develop fatal familial insomnia in one pregnancy.

It can be inherited by offspring, and even if it is treatable, it carries a heavy burden if the child develops. Furthermore, it is inherited by their grandchildren.

Emerich realized that the preimplantation diagnosis of fertilized eggs cultured to blastocysts by artificial insemination could be performed, and the presence or absence of mutations in the PrP gene could be screened to reduce the birth rate of children with chromosomal abnormalities.

Although it was easy to avoid embryos with genetic abnormalities by using eye examinations, Pharma urged the establishment of diagnostic methods for genetic testing in view of the future spread of genetic technology.

In the course of these studies, Josephine was kidnapped by foreign nobles because of her parents' schemes.

At this time, there was a custom of kidnapping and marriage where men kidnap women and force them to marry. However, due to the development of the law of Holy Emperor Elizabeth, marriages without the consent of both sexes were invalidated in many countries, and the temple was said not to allow marriages without the agreement of the two.

So I was abducted by a foreign country where the law has not yet been applied.

Farma, who heard from Emerich, was surprised to find him and rescue him overnight.

It was easy for Pharma, who could use the Daijin's intelligence network, to find Josephine. Instead of keeping silent that Josephine's parents had conspired with foreign nobles to abduct her, she drew the phrase “consider the marriage of the two”.

Not so long ago, Emerich found a way to overcome lethal family insomnia on his own.

As he said at the beginning, a gene therapy virus was created to incorporate gene therapy units that degrade abnormal prions into specific locations in neural cells, and it was successfully studied in cell experiments and animal experiments.

After that, if you see any signs of onset, you can just administer it to yourself.

After the treatment, Josephine's parents also approved the marriage.

A wedding ceremony in the Saint-Fleuve Empire can be held in a temple if the religious aspect is important, in a city hall or in a court if the religious color is not desired.

The two dared to choose a ceremony in the temple in hope.

Pharma hasn't clearly told us why.

I wanted to report to my ancestors and patron saint that Emerich, once cursed by blood and abomination, had overcome his miserable fate and trials. Maybe they rushed to get married because they thought that while Pharma was still in the world. Farma took such an idea from the two of them.

Even as a Pharma, I wanted to make sure my teacher was happy.

Arriving much earlier than scheduled, the Pharmas were able to meet the groom, Emelich, in the cabin of the temple. Josephine's outfit bothers me, but no one can see the bride's dress until the day.

Farma called out to Emerich with a frivolous look.

"Congratulations, you look great today."

Emerich was dressed in the groom's pure white outfit.

I usually wear a white coat in the lab and dress roughly, but today I am determined. Emelich was accompanied by a photographer.

During the recent wedding in Saint-Fleuve, wedding photography became popular due to the popularity of photography technology brought about by Pharma.

Farma was impressed that the world would do the same thing, as she would also make an album with wedding photos.

“Thank you, Professor, for celebrating this day. Eleonor-sensei."

"There's been a lot of things, but your own efforts are very high."

It is also the heart of Pharma.

"This is ridiculous... sometimes I think about it." Well, when I enrolled, if the professor hadn't kept me, neither I nor my family would have known what would have happened now. I would never have met my wife, and in the end, I didn't have a life. ”

(My wife... she's very emotional about Josephine.)

To Farma's mind, the encounter with Emerich was impressive.

Farma does not believe in fate in a spiritual sense.

It is only natural that people with dyslexia gather around Pharma for help.

Nevertheless, the encounter with him was particularly curious.

I was surprised that I was suddenly provoked with hostility early in my inauguration, and I was tapped into dropping out of school and applied for a match. It is a good memory to see that Farma took the game without being an adult and destroyed the university equipment, costing about 600 million yen in repairs, and became a whole hat.

"At that time, it was good that you didn't leave school in silence, and you decided to hit the faculty with one last shot."

"Damn, I'm so rude... but it turned out to be the best."

"You're the one who told me to expel you." I'm surprised. "

Ellen, who was there at the time, was smiling bitterly.

And Ellen and Lotte spake blessings unto them, and blessed them.

There is no such thing as a celebration in Saint-Fleuve as in Japan, and a list of what you would like to see in a modern way, called the List du Mariage, is presented in advance. The giver chooses a gift that matches his or her budget.

If you have left behind expensive items, you can buy them for multiple people.

Ellen found an item called "Plates", and Lotte chose an item called "Painting", a cutlery famous for the kiln, and she gave a gorgeous impression painting modeled after Emerich and Josephine.

Farma chose the item "writing instruments" and presented a pair of luxuriously decorated ballpoint pens.

The ballpoint pen was recently registered with the tech bureau because Farma resented the fact that it had been recreated by making ink stains on important contract documents.

“Wow! This is the only professor I've ever seen in the world.”

"It's the second and third in the world." Ink can also be filled. "

“I'm glad, I'll use it to write down my wife's experimental notes.”

"That's good." Even if you rub it right after you write it, it won't stop you. "

Glad to hear it!

Emerich was frankly glad to have something practical.

Farma watches the situation and hands over a strictly sealed letter from her nephew.

"Then, this is not a celebration, but I actually have a letter I was going to give you." It's important, so you can read it later. "

"Yes... I see." I'm going to read it now because I'm curious. "

Emerich opens it nervously and looks at the letter from Farma.

Farma sent Emerich a medical record of her own lethal familial genetic disorder.

"I can't believe this..."

Farma was ahead of the game in case Emerich couldn't find a cure for the difficulty on her own, in case Farma wasn't in the world.

He had already been genetically treated so that Emerich would not notice him.

"Did the professor heal you..."

"I knew what you were going to do. I also believed that I would cure myself, but I wanted to keep my hands up for sure."

"When was it... I didn't realize it at all"

Emerich is upset about when he was treated.

"It was two years ago when I was rolling on the sofa in the lab all night." There's no way I'm going to notice it. "

"Um... that's right."

Emerich has a strong willingness to treat, and Farma can provide a safe treatment.

I knew it, and I couldn't pretend not to know it.

Emerich bites her lips regretfully.

"... Professor, as a pharmacist, it's a serious act." Denying patients the right to make decisions is a serious violation of medical law and an outrage that tramples on patients' human rights. That's what you taught me. "

Emerich turned to Farma like a bullet.

Yeah, I think my hands are turning back.

"... but the results are the same. If you've restored the germline, you won't have to complain.”

"That was two years ago, because I didn't do it quickly... I'm sure you'd have seen it before, right?" I don't want to, but thank you very much. ”

"I'm sorry for the injustice."

After hearing the end, Emerich sighed loudly without relief or disappointment.

My sense of accomplishment had been halved, but I guess Farma felt the same way.

“Please don't cure me, I told you not to help me develop a cure. I knew that if it had been years, the professor would not shut up.”

“No, that's your own decision. Besides, the treatments you've developed aren't in vain."

Ellen nodded sideways.

Both Pharma and Ellen know the effort of his blood and that of Josephine.

Emerich has been thinking for a while, but he seems to have convinced himself.

"That's right, it didn't make no sense. The professor's cure uses advanced divine magic, so it can't be used by civilians and won't last for generations to come. Anyone can use the method I've developed, and this technology will work for the next person.”

"I want you to do that. As a pharmacist, you're right."

“I think my wife, my wife's family and, of course, my siblings will be delighted.”

On time, the Pharmacists moved to the largest ceremonial shrine in the Imperial City's guardian shrine to perform the temple wedding.

The wedding will only be rented out of the temple so as not to interfere with the worship of the citizens.

Those who will be married will first go to the government office and submit a birth certificate, prepare a marriage certificate containing the permission of their relatives, tell the officier de l 'état civil that they will marry, and have them announce their marriage for eight days.

The bride and groom were supposed to have been listening to the shrine's wedding lecture a few months ago for this day.

The steward was the new chief of the Imperial City Temple.

At one point, he was hostile to Farma, and he was completely rounded up to become the face of the city.

Find Natalie Blondel among the participants on the bride's side, and Farma will give her an audition.

Four and a half years ago, Natalie Blondel, who had had her glioblastoma removed, was still living a daily life without recurrence. She is also expected to be licensed as a first-class pharmacist, take over Françoise's clientele as a court pharmacist, and start her own business at home.

Stephanie Barbe, Josephine's best friend, sits next to Natalie Blondel. She was also able to obtain a first-class pharmacist.

Currently, even if you are a civilian in the Empire, if you graduate from a new course from this year, you can become a first-class pharmacist.

Zoe, the secretary, the faculty, college officials, and alumni.

Emelich's brothers and sisters. Lotte was also called because she was a distant relative.

Josephine's veterinarian companions are on their way.

Following Emerich, Josephine enters from the cathedral entrance, dressed in a pure white silk satin dress with pearls and diamonds.

Behind the dress is a design with a large fan-shaped long trane.

I have a long lace veil down and a slightly tearful father escorting me.

The history of wedding dresses has also changed, and once Saint-Fleuve wore a variety of colors as well as white, and red was very popular.

On Earth, the 19th-century British Empire Queen Victoria was styled with a white wedding dress and a white veil, and it is said that white has become a trend since then.

In this world, it was Elizabeth II who made white popular in wedding dresses.

At the same time, she fashioned black mourning clothes.

Josephine's expression was a little stiff because she was nervous and stiff.

Farma watched her slowly pass by her seat, feeling complicated.

When I heard the progress report in the lab a few days ago and chatted with her, she said that she was looking forward to her marriage even though she seemed tired from preparing for her new home.

Josephine's desire to devote herself to research without a blank remains unchanged, and she has often discussed her desire to care about her career with Emerich.

In a world where there was no career plan or role model for women to continue working even after marriage, Farma, who hired only married women pharmacists who had lost their jobs, presented flexible working styles, and launched Medique, the second largest pharmacy in the world, took the time to explain to the couple the significance of accumulating careers as part of their self-realization without either of them having to put up with it or give up.

Emerich also hopes to work hard with her, and she said that the burden on the family will be equal, so it is likely to be a good couple of researchers.

After the scriptures were recited by comb, the singing of Anthem was followed by the singing of all the participants.

Anthem is accompanied by a pipe organ, with a majestic sound spread throughout the hall.

"Now, the words of my vows."

In the case of marriage between nobles, if the patron saint of the groom and bride are different, it is a pledge to each patron saint. Emerich vigorously swore an oath to the Potion God and Josephine to the Wind God.

The comb glanced towards Farma, but Farma pretended not to notice.

Next, we will exchange the classic wedding ring.

It is common for a groom to give a gold ring to the bride and a silver ring to the groom, and it is said that Lord Melody, who had a close relationship with Josephine, made the ring for him.

There is a legend that if you can't put this ring on well, there will be a dark cloud in your marriage life, and the two of you were nervous but passing through smoothly.

The ring is proof of marriage and must not be taken off for the rest of your life.

I wondered if I would bale up and give a wedding kiss. I didn't do it, so I thought Farma was very sore.

After receiving blessings and sermons from combs, sign the Shrine Registry in the Signature Room.

Farma signs as a witness.

In the temple doctrine, divorce is basically not permitted, but I hope it will not be unreasonable.

The blessing bell after leaving the hall is sounded three times.

The first for the bride and groom themselves, the second for the parents, and the third for the participants.

Josephine leaves the temple with a bright red flower shower, and Josephine happily sits next to Emerich to take a souvenir photo.

Emerich's siblings are also exchanging some words with Josephine's parents. It would be good if the fatigue could be solved soon.

Pharma joined the group photo because it was a college photo.

Perhaps Farma will join the wedding album.

Farma is cheeky as she sees the two happy.

I wonder if the reception at Chiu's wedding was like this.

Such as that, the bitter emotions are held down inside your chest.

"Congratulations on your wedding, Josephine."

Farma exchanges words with Josephine for the first time on this day.

Wearing a pure white dress and tiara, she looks even brighter today.

"Professor, thank you so much for everything. I've had a lot of consultations."

"I'm glad you had a happy day."

Please continue to provide guidance.

“Of course, but for the time being, take your time on your honeymoon.”

The nobility of the Saint-Fleuve Empire has a custom of visiting relatives who could not come to the wedding without doing housework for about a month after marriage.

"I'll buy you a souvenir! Would you mind taking a two-week holiday?"

"You don't have to think about coming home so early." I'll do the necessary experiments. "

Thank you!

A bouquet of unmarried women was gathered at the end of the celebration.

Farma stares at Ellen and Lotte from a distance, desperately trying to catch them.

I thought that there might be bouquets in this world, but what the bride wore before was a good fortune, and it was very similar to the history of the earth that she left the temple and was about to be taken from the veil and accessories, and was told to give her a bouquet.

It was Ellen who got the Bouquet.

When I took off my heeled shoes and took part in it, it seemed like a tight competition.

"Wow, how many female aristocrats did you get?"

Farma asked, and Ellen looked like she had finished her work.

"That's right, who do you think I am anymore, because the instantaneous force is different from the way I train my core." I can't lose to college people. "

"Lady Eleonor, that was perfect." I did my best, too.

Lotte was completely defeated by Ellen because of the difference in height and jumping power.

I've tried it, but I wonder if it's for the sake of luck.

Ellen was holding onto the bouquet alone in a pose.

"That was lovely, Mr. Josephine."

"Yes! Originally, it was beautiful!" You look very happy today. Marriage... it's a good thing. Attending a wedding makes you want to get married. ”

With this marriage, Lotte and Josephine become distant relatives.

It was a great seat, so I couldn't stop smiling, but Lotte's voice was a bit harsh. Lotte's nervous back gently patted Ellen as if to encourage her.

"There is. You will replace the bride with yourself!"

"Eh, I'm not that specific!" However, I can't imagine a person becoming a husband, and I'm a civilian, so it won't be such a grand ceremony. "

Lotte's face turned bright red.

Lotte, do you have a boyfriend?

"Nh, there's no one there at all." I don't have any, but I want to wear a beautiful dress. Ah, but my mother said she'd make it for me. "

Farma listens to the idea that attending a friend's wedding or bridal fair might make her want to get married step by step.

"Lotte, we're having a party until this morning." You'll reveal the dance, won't you? "

The Saint-Fleuve Imperial reception is held throughout the night, spending almost the entire day from the ceremony to the dissolution. The fight against drowsiness, the party with strength.

"Yes! I also practice dancing, so it's time to show off!"

You might meet someone nice!

I hope so.

"I need to eat croc bush, too."

"I'm so looking forward to it!" This is the first time I have received it. ”

"The Parisian craftsmanship is delicious, isn't it?"

The reception takes place in a new restaurant near the temple.

There is no such thing as a wedding venue yet.

The first dish served is a buffet-style stand-alone meal featuring a handful of appetisers and drinks.

Farma also talked to the participants and enjoyed the conversation.

The reception doesn't look like a tall sand, and Emmerich and Josephine go around each table to talk about the flowers. After the stand-up party, sit down, spend a couple of hours having an authentic dinner, and enjoy a leisurely meal while watching the surprises.

At the end of the dinner, the bride and groom perform their first social dance as a traditional event.

The picturesque bride and groom perform the dance very gracefully and passionately.

"Damn, you two are too good at dancing. I wish you'd practiced more."

Ellen was secretly impressed.

Thereafter, the social dance continues until all the participants dance in total victory.

At a feast, Crocumbusch, one of the Piedmontese, is brought to the dance floor.

On the side, a small shoe filled with custard cream is glued with boiled candy, a traditional wedding treat often used as a wedding cake at the wedding of the Saint-Fleuve Empire.

Shoe is said to represent the prosperity and abundance of the offspring.

While breaking this shoe, the bride and groom distribute it to the dancers. In addition to Lotte, Emerich's sisters had probably gone to exchange about three times. As usual, the family is a sweet family.

Something like a champagne tower in the restaurant's courtyard was lavishly done.

(Can I just drink a little today?)

It's been a long time since I've been in this world, and I've decided to get rid of my first alcohol addiction.

The feast lasted until the morning, when Pharma drank a little too much and was taken to the break room to sleep until she woke up the next morning.

Ellen had lost her glasses.
