6: 5. Lotte's Mistakes and Obesity - Into Holy Land Again

"Uh, I'm here to let you know that it's sunny and I've banned you from leaving."

"Yes? Where?

To Pharma's confession, Ellen looked half as if she knew, but I'll ask just in case.

"What can't you do?

Lotte also asks innocently. This one's serious. I don't know what's going on.

"As a result of coaching my students, I was banned from entering and leaving the In-Campus Theological Arena by order of the Director General. From now on, if you want to enter, you will be prompted immediately."

Pharma confessed with a giggling smile.

"Oh, that's funny, Desne. Are you no longer able to teach divine arts classes to store owner Sun?"

That's what Roger said and erupted. Celst said, "That's not funny!," he said, taking Roger to the separate room. "I'm going home today," said Tom, returning from a run of use, waving his hands back in a flicker. He is an air readable boy.

"I told you not to do it... Mr. Farma"

It's usual for Ellen's glasses to slip off. Pharma's divine practice in Ellen's place was well received by the students, but Bruno summoned him to the office of the general manager, where he was given a firm offer to deal with the above. The kind of theology that greatly bottoms up an individual's qualities creates great trouble, as well as a sense of injustice with students who did not receive Pharma's internship.

From now on, Pharma's own theological battles will, of course, be archaic to students.

He wrote a pledge that he would not take a theological internship in class. As for the final statement, it goes without saying.

"But you didn't say anything about being out of school."

"You are... a substitute instructor..."

I'm totally back on my shoulder. When Ellen says something,

"Mother!?

Lotte screamed surprised when she saw the pharmacy entrance. Katrine Sorrell, Lotte's mother came to the other pharmacy. Unsurprisingly, this was Catherine's first visit to the pharmacy.

She came on foot, from the mansion to the pharmacy, apparently.

"Mr. Katrine, there you are. What can I do for you?

"Oh, Lotte's mother, long time no see"

Pharma and Ellen also speak out loudly.

Ellen has been in and out of the de Medicis family for a long time, so she's also familiar with Catherine.

The part-time pharmacists said it was nice to meet you.

"Good day, boy. Good day, pharmacies. I'm taking the day off, so I stopped by."

"What's wrong, Mother? Have you come to see the pharmacy? Well, you never saw it."

"Lotte, show Mr. Catherine the store."

Pharma distracts me.

"Ha, I'm going all the way! Go, Mother!

Following Farma's words, Lotte rushed over to Catherine and began to guide her inside the pharmacy. Katrine looked like she'd eaten, but she follows the snack and the lotte.

"Dear Farma. My mother didn't come to visit the pharmacy to buy medicine."

After a short while and the guide was over, Lotte came down the stairs with Katrine and Patapata.

Since Katrine seemed to have difficulty telling her business within the pharmacy where her customers had spoken, Farma, who thought it might be a delicate story, left the ground floor to Ellen to move to the upstairs office to listen.

Lotte also followed me worried and slipped into the office.

"Nobody's coming here. What kind of medication have you been looking for?

When Pharma prompted him to talk, Katrine bowed shyly.

"Boy, there's no such thing as a drug that loses your appetite"

"What do you use it for?

"Yes...... I have recently gained weight and my clothes are tight for my outfits. At the servant's minute, I also felt sorry and ashamed of your husband for making his body grow up... and wondered if others were laughing in the shadows"

In this world, obese people are rare. Obesity may be referred to as the status symbol of aristocratic wealth and satiety, and as long as divine art is available when it comes to aristocratic obesity, it is not so much to be blamed on the surroundings, and it becomes a moderate exercise because it trains in divine arts.

But those who were civilian and fat were rare and seemed to begin to care if they looked lazy. Although Pharma missed the impression that Catherine was always a worthy servant at work.

"Mother... I can't believe I cared that much"

Lotte, who was listening next door, looked shocked.

"Because of me. 'Cause I was bringing home a lot of sweets... sorry, I didn't even think about your mother"

"No, it's my fault I was eating like a pig unrestrained"

Katrine uttered a less disgraceful voice.

"Hmm, nothing. I don't think I have to think of it that way. I think if we try a little harder, we'll go back to where we were."

Farma seems too serious for Catherine, so add a word, words of encouragement.

"A little effort, will you lose weight in"

"A little effort at a time, I guess. Don't think abruptly."

Farma, who was either born unrelated to this kind of obesity, including in her previous life when it was a medicinal valley, or lost more and less weight when she was distracted, could not take into account the narrowness of her shoulders of being fat, but, as self-declared, Catherine was indeed fat.

It was still slim around last year, but it has grown remarkably over the past year or so.

Unlike Lotte, who performs a decent chore and has a lot of activity, Catherine is a senior servant, so she has a lot of light work in the mansion of the de Medicis family. So, I'm going to lack exercise.

"After dinner, the treats Charlotte buys and goes home are delicious..."

Even if I don't tell everyone, obviously, the cause is overeating sweets.

Lotte buys it like every day, so she said she was eating that recommendation.

"Why don't you give me your physique index? Let's see that and see if we need to lose weight."

We need an objective assessment. From height and weight, Pharma calculates Catherine's Physical Index (BMI) and weight and asks Catherine herself to confirm it. Catherine's BMI was 30, as much as 15 kilograms higher than her proper weight. I listened and watched alongside Lotte. Katrine waits for the hour of judgment.

"What do you say? Am I a pig?"

"No, pigs are too self-inflicted. You're not seriously obese, but you fall into the obesity category. Let's lose weight."

Metabolic syndrome criteria vary between Japan and the United States and WHO, but in addition to visceral adipose obesity, two of the following are considered to be developing: hyperglycemia, hypertension, and dyslipidemia.

"Excuse me for a second"

When Pharma made the diagnosis with the diagnostic eye because there were no instruments for measuring blood sugar levels, etc., it was thought that although Katrine had a build-up of visceral fat, all figures were still within normal range.

"Boy, what the hell are you doing with your hands on your eyes? I've been curious for a long time."

Katrine, who saw Pharma's diagnostic ocular activation up close, looks at the gesture strangely. While explaining that you don't have to worry about it because it's my habit, Pharma tried touching Katrine's abdomen even more from the top of her clothes, but the subcutaneous fat is thick. It doesn't look like it's a visceral fat type. I've tried wearing an abdominal circumference, but it hasn't exceeded the standard abdominal circumference.

It's not metabolic, but it definitely seems obese.

"How do I lose weight? You have medication?

Katrine, who came to the pharmacy, seems to be only a drug. She thinks that if you take your medicine easily, you will lose weight.

"I guess I don't have to use drugs yet, I don't have appetite suppressants or fat absorbers either"

"So should I fast"

"If your body goes hungry with fasting, your muscles fall first, then you lose fat, but it's hard to lose. In addition, a lack of calcium to make bones melts bones, making them brittle and fragile. Since there are many other disadvantages of fasting, should I limit my diet slightly and exercise mainly? Exercise that fits Mr. Katrine… for example, a walk."

"What, do you lose weight in exercise"

Losing weight with fasting is still difficult for Catherine to understand, she says, the notion of exercising and losing weight, etc. From Pharma it seems unbelievable, even naturally, because there is no one in this world who dares to try to lose weight.

"But even if you're walking and playing, there's something to do with your mansion job. You can't play while you're at work"

"Right now, Mr. Catherine, you're taking turns buying out with Mr. Charlotte, aren't you? Maybe buy it out a little farther on foot."

"Oh, then you can naturally incorporate it!

"To do that, it's easy to walk."

Pharma urged her to tailor her athletic shoes.

The de Medicis employ a specialist shoemaker, so tell him to order it from the artisan.

Katrine went home with half her expectations and half her anxiety.

"Thank you, Master Pharma. Looks like I was doing something bad to your mother. I'm reflecting."

Lotte speaks to Pharma, whispering.

I thought my mother would be delighted, and I said I was bringing home a lot of rare and sweet souvenirs.

Lotte is disappointed that the intention was to please her parents, but it nearly damaged her health.

"Perhaps the pharmacy staff and the courtroom workshop were annoying because of the recommendation... Tell me if Master Pharma is annoying too"

The recommendation from Lotte was somewhat, sometimes felt burdensome, but Pharma was moderating and self-managing.

Besides, his shape didn't change surprisingly.

"With moderation, you'll be fine. Lotte too, but be careful about taking too much of the sweet stuff. Because even if you're as young as Lotte, if you eat too much sweet, you'll get sick."

Pharma stunned Lotte somewhat.

"Yes, I also decide to refrain from snacking, accompany your mother, and sometimes walk with her"

Lotte regained her mind and answered well.

Lotte was cleaning the office after Katrine returned to the mansion with her bare hands.

On the first floor of the pharmacy comes the cleaning part-time, but after the second floor, Lotte has taken on the cleaning clerk.

Her cleaning skills were brilliant. Sluttering the song brightly, it makes the floor shiny handily. Brush the scale thoroughly, no dirt, and don't miss the fine dust.

"Speaking of which, I feel a little tighter in my skirt too"

Lotte wondered, taking off her shoes and gently getting on the scales in the office. I haven't been on the scale lately. My mother was oh, but I wonder about myself. Well, that seems to have worried me.

"Hia. Oh, my God!

Lotte tried to calculate her physique index the same way Farma was saying it did when she was Catherine.

"Yikes!

"What's going on? Lotte."

I heard a scream, so Ellen speaks from downstairs. Lotte deceived me by saying it was nothing.

At noon that day, Lotte's diet was clearly more modest than usual.

Ellen's eyes seem unusually wide, just wondering if a natural mutation has occurred.

"Lotte, don't you want some after-dinner treats? I'm eating less, though. Whatever the sweets are, if you don't eat well, you're gonna fall."

Ellen asks worryingly.

"I feel like I don't want it today"

Lotte looked awkward somewhere and snapped in a whisper.

(About Katrine, I wonder if Lotte even lasted)

Farma had such an impression on Lotte, who answered with a mojo.

Later, Katrine adhered to the dietary restrictions as suggested by Pharma and began to go far on foot to buy them out. That worked, or Katrine began to lose weight dramatically. Just a little effort, something that shows results.

Katrine is becoming more and more concerned with the diet, adding to her exercise load.

But from that time on, Lotte also got up early and started walking around the mansion grounds.

It seems to have become a secret morning routine for everyone in Lotte, as he sneaks out in the dark in the morning and comes to wake up in Farma's room in the same way as usual when it's time to wake up. If that's all, Farma thinks it's a good habit, but thanks Lotte seemed to be sinking into things.

"Morning, Lotte! Nice morning."

Early one morning, as usual, when Lotte was walking in the gardens of the de Medicis family, Farma snuck out of the shadow of the garden implantation and spoke to Lotte.

Lotte thought he had been called out by the suspicious, or jumped up and fled about fifty meters.

I am terribly timid.

"What are you doing? You've been walking early every morning lately."

"Ah, Master Pharma! I thought my heart would stop. This... erm. I get fat... and I want to lose weight, and I walk every day."

"What? Wait, Lotte's not getting any fat!

To Lotte, who looks like he's coming up with it, Farma strongly tells him what the mistake is.

Lotte, who was losing confidence in his weight and shape, can't get Farma's word.

"That's okay, you don't have to worry about me"

"You don't have to diet because you're in the right physique, and you still don't have to grow up, and things aren't the same as adults. If you eat less and exercise tougher and lose weight, your body won't be able to do it properly."

"But, but when I got on the scale, my weight was in big trouble... and I, Mr. Piglet, was embarrassed"

"That's definitely not true. Isn't that scale accurate?

"But it's a pharmacy scale. Very precise!

Lotte complains about the reliability of the data.

Pharma tilted her neck when she heard that.

"Speaking of which, a while back, after you cleaned my office, I fixed it because the scales were tilting horizontally, but could it have gotten on then?

"What?"

"If that's the case, I can't weigh it accurately."

When Pharma set up the pharmacy scale again that day and Lotte was on it, Pharma's predictions were in the middle. Lotte was relieved for a moment, but it seemed like she was going to keep trying not to eat too much sweet food.

"This fruit cake is going to stop today."

She had her hands on it from one end when she saw something sweet, but she started to learn something called patience just a little bit.

…━━…━━…━━…

It was December 1147.

A subpoena to the palace was received under Pharma, who packed for the long journey.

The day of our journey to the Holy Land has arrived.

"Dear Farma, there you go. Please be safe."

Lotte is crying. Somehow, from the tense state of Farma here these days, he assumed that it was not a very optimistic journey. Lotte stepped in no further.

"It's okay. Your Majesty is here, and I'm just offering."

"Is that true? You can believe it!

"Promise."

As Lotte has offered her hand, Pharma holds her hand firmly.

The strength of that power had conveyed Farma's feelings for Lotte.

Apart from the SS of the Empress's escort and a group of offerings to look after herself, several ministers accompany her in Pharma from the de Medicis family. They were floating when they were told they could go to the Holy Land.

From the feel of modern Earthlings, it would be similar to a Vatican trip.

"Farma, what an honor for you to take us on an outing of Your Majesty. Don't be rude in front of His Majesty."

"Buy me an authentic scripture and amulet of the Holy Nation"

"Ahhh. I haven't seen you for a while. I'm sorry. I'm following you."

The three of them, Beatrice, Pallet and Blanche, who do not know the details, each told such drop-off words. I did not, of course, tell the families that serious talks would take place on the visit of the Holy Nation, etc.

However, I only told her that I would accompany her as the empress's attending pharmacist, so it would be such a reaction from my family.

(I hope you don't worry. I'll definitely be back, in this house)

Not to mention, I didn't even want to think that something would happen and I'd never see you again, etc.

Informing Ellen and the pharmacy staff of her absence for approximately two weeks, when Pharma came to the palace, the Empress was sitting down following Salomon and Juliana.

The empress is also plain clothed with a travel schedule. This dress is elegantly dressed, leaving behind the ease of activity. Farma thinks that Tsubahara's hat is a modern design.

"It's Pharma. I'm here, Your Majesty. Best regards,"

"Um, the settlement with the Holy Nation must be fulfilled sooner or later. Now would be a good time."

The apparent reason for the visit to the Holy Nation is the tribute to the high priests and peaceful talks, as well as the visit to the countries surrounding the Holy Nation, during the milestone year of the Empress's ten-year reign.

Newspapers and weekly empires also report heavily on the Empress's outings.

On the other hand, the main purpose of Pharma for this visit is to return the drug scepter and attach it officially to the material a non-interference in Pharma.

"I don't know what kind of hand Pius is going to use, and the rest, I'm not familiar with the divinity that the priests use. You can't keep your mouth shut with force. At that time, Salomon, Juliana and I are comfortable traveling together."

Historical emperors visit the holy kingdom when they are crowned, and the empress also says she has knowledge with the high priest Pius during the crowning ceremony. To the high priest who made herself an empress, the empress said she had no particular evil impression.

But I put my ear to interference with Pharma from the Holy Nation, and I could no longer remain silent. In addition, Juliana, who had been exiled, and Salomon, were to be accompanied.

Juliana was likely to be brought back and Salomon was allegedly missing in the first place, but both of them insisted strongly that whatever happened would follow. The Empress recommended to the two of them that they name their pseudonyms and disguise, just in case.

(I threatened to pull out all the floors of the Great Temple, and I don't think the other side can do anything bad... sure, you don't know what's gonna happen)

Clara, who holds the traveling god as patron saint, was also officially ordered to accompany him. Clara also had a travel schedule in place. I am in front of the Empress, so I have no heart or clear.

"This is my first trip abroad. I'll do my best to get ready before I go to the continent."

"It's Clara. And the evil prophecy will not change."

When the empress asked, Clara nodded and expressed her intention to affirm herself in the dark.

According to Clara's predictive ability of the travel god attribute, he said he sees bad omens at pinpoint in Pharma visiting the Holy Nation.

"Uh, nobody in here, they don't look skeletonized, do they?

Pharma will be on alert before leaving.

Clara says the near-death man has the ability to look like a skeleton.

"Yes, we can all go back alive. But bad omens don't change… Until I know more, I don't see them."

For one thing, Pharma is also reassured by the tentative assurance that they will all come back alive.

I do not want to involve people involved in Pharma in the eyes of life and death.

So Pharma assembled a whole group of travelers to brief them in order to increase their chances of returning safely at all.

"Before we leave, I'd like you all to do the same."

It is for Pharma to leave the Divine Path of the Principal Walker open.

The Divine Path, which Pharma opened without chanting, ceases to be closed to priests or anyone else.

Even if a chant of divine closure is chanted in the holy kingdom, it shall not be done if Pharma keeps the divine vein open in advance.

"If you think this is going to be a problem, you can also return the divine vein after you return home. It's only a temporary measure to prevent you from being shut down in the Holy Nation."

With his consent, Pharma, with the help of Salomon and Juliana, opened the divine line of all those who accompanied him.

Finally, it is the Empress's turn, to insert the drug scepter directly from the front into the Empress's body and open it without chanting.

The Empress trembled with freckles, and the Yangitis of divine power began to rise from the Empress's body.

"Ooh... did the bottom of the Divine Springs fall out? Come on, let's try and shoot him!

The Empress expressed the vast expansion of the divine vein in such words.

The Empress launches the Great Fire Flame into the sky. It was more powerful than she could compare to the divine moves she used before.

Pharma also watched over the heat as if to cover over the court.

"What do you think, the winter sky would have warmed up"

"Exactly, Your Majesty, that's a magnificent divine trick."

Pharma was overwhelmed by the empress's masculinity and became a pulled laugh. As the empress looked up at the sky satisfactorily, the rain began to pound as if to water the exaltation.

"Mm, why? It's raining!

"If all that heat produces upward airflow, it's natural to have rainfall"

"Mm-hmm. Don't explain so calmly, don't you think the rest of the Grand Divine moves are going to hurt you"

The holy imprint of the Fire God, which had been engraved on the Empress's calf, was powerful and thickened one step at a time to pulse.

If her divine power is measured by a divine power meter, the amount will be increasing by nearly a single digit. Juliana and others were also surprised to see significant divine amplification.

Clara says the increase in divine power didn't make a particular difference, but for some reason she became extra sleepy.

Pharma's belongings include medicinal sceptres, treasured staff cards, PCs, smartphones and more.

I intend to return the drug scepter after applying a certain workmanship.

"Let me show you to the Holy Land."

A carriage carrying an envoy from the Holy Land came to pick up the Empress.

Pharma and others travel to the Holy Land for a meeting with Emperor Saint Fluve and the high priest Pius.
