The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

Luciliano wrote a piece of paper on the wall with the names of various medicines and herbs and the procedure for preparing them.

"No, I've taken a long time to analyze the medicine that I was given. The great thing about this medicine is that it's a good way to arrange the ingredients and mix them well to achieve the intended effect, Because of this, the body of the patient who took the drug continues to recognize it as a drug, not a poison.

No matter how long you take this medicine, you won't gain the Poison Tolerance skill and the medicine will not work. "

Extremely, medicine and poison are the same thing. Those that have a beneficial effect on the human body are called medicines, and those that have a detrimental effect are called poisons.

And in this world, there is a [drug resistance] skill, but no [drug resistance] skill. In addition, potions… that is, medicines that restore the body are effective even for those who have [Poison Resistance] skills.

From the above, it can be seen that in this world, the effects of poisons can be prevented, but the effects of drugs are difficult to prevent.

"Of course, there are exceptions. [Poison resistance] Skills make it hard to get drunk if you have the skills ... Depending on your level, you won't get drunk at all.

This drug was prepared by a person who understands such things using advanced technology. ''

Luciliano puts the pills in his hand on one of the plates on the table.

"And there's no antidote because it's a drug. At least it can restore weakened brain function, restore lost memory, regain previous personality, etc. No medicine exists and cannot be made.

Is this the correct answer, director? "

Luciliano spoke to the director, seated in a chair lined around a long table with luxurious tablecloths.

"What, what are you going to do? Who are you?"

"Release us! Do you think this is allowed?"

"Help me! I don't want to die!"

No, not just the director. Almost all other doctors and priests, as well as staff members who also serve as nurses and cleaning staff, were detained in chairs.

They were in this room when they noticed themselves while working and suddenly became sober. The walls, ceilings, and tables are all solid white and made of different materials than stone and pottery. When he realized his identity, the directors shivered.

"What the hell is it here! Help me!"

The building and the furniture were all made of bone. The thing holding the directors in chairs is not a belt. It is a hand of white bones.

"I think it's difficult, but why not calm down? I'm talking like a decent researcher, so let me continue to the end. Well, you'll want to talk freely at the end. I won't force you, "

"Well, it's the end !? I'll kill us !? Well, wait, if you do that, the nobles of the elected kingdom won't be silent!"

"If you kill yourself who knows the aristocracy's secrets and weaknesses, the aristocrats who think we heard it will try to kill you by mouth?"

Pushing the wagon while asking so, a boy wearing a cook hat ... Vandaloo Zaccato, whose directors all know their faces.

"You are ...! Yes, is this all your money !?"

"Yes. Everything I ordered. By the way, I'm going to serve you."

While saying so, Vandalu comes in pushing a wagon. Behind them were skeletons pushing the wagon in the same way.

"By the way, are you going to answer our question?"

"I refuse! Release us quickly! And this time will be in our hearts!"

"Oh, that's a problem, Master. They don't seem to answer rice or bread or red or white."

"I can't help it, let's arrange both"

"What?"

On the wagon pushed by Vandaloo and the skeletons were a plate of various dishes. Steaming soup, salads made with fresh seasonal vegetables, fish pie, rumbling and a plate full of meat dumplings that seem to be worth eating are arranged in front of the directors.

And there is a bread that seems to be kneaded into the dough but seems to be soft, and a rice that is not cooked but also fried with something, and red, white, and blue purple wine in three glasses Be poured.

"What is this ...?"

I am worried about the color of the wine poured at the end, but otherwise it looks good. It doesn't seem like a lie even if you ordered a full course at a fine restaurant.

The directors were confused because they did not understand the intention of serving a sumptuous meal while being abducted.

"Hmm, just look at me and I don't get hungry. Master, can you give me a dish? I just have one seat available."

"Luciliano, aren't you giving me Amelia's meal?"

"... No, I don't want to eat something that might be served even if I know it's almost never."

"Well, why do you want to eat this full-bodied dish?"

"I don't have [poison resistance], but [state abnormality resistance] skill. I thought a little more would be fine."

However, hearing the conversation between Vandaloo and Luciliano freezed the director.

"Oh, the menu explanation wasn't done yet.

The appetizer is a seasonal vegetable salad, dressed with crushed pills and olive oil with herbs. The soup is made by adding potage of root vegetables to pills before hardening. The same goes for fish dishes, including pill ingredients and pie-wrapped white fish. Meat dishes consist of minotaur and oak ground meat, chopped onions and pills in a meat dumpling, and a wine-based sauce with pill powder.

Drinks are available in red and white with pills, and blue fermented with pills mixed with grapes, regardless of taste.

Oh, as you can tell from the story, pills are the medicines you have in Amelia Sauron. ''

When Vandalu pointed at the pill on the plate, the blood drained from the director's faces. The director who prepared the pills, of course, knew that the medicines they gave at their workplace were not decent, even to doctors, priests, and even terminal staff.

"That's right! If this word is true, eating this dish will kill you!"

And the director who prepared the pills was terrified by the fear of death due to "overdose." Although it was weakened during the compounding process, it was originally a drama that reduced brain function.

You don't even have to think about what happens if you consume a large amount of such a play at once.

"That's sorry! Don't kill me! I was just commissioned by Count Leamsand! I couldn't resist him!"

"Don't lie, Dr. director, I'll add pill powdered butter to the bread as a penalty."

Saying so, Vandalu puts bread on a plate and adds butter for the director.

"Well, not a lie!"

"It's a lie"

"Amelia Sauron !?"

Amelia Sauron appeared without warning before the calling director. She fills her eyes with nullity and condemns the directors with no expression at all.

"Have you lied that it would be expensive to procure the ingredients for the drug, and urged an increase in donations to Count Leamsand and other nobles? You have also been recruiting employment for yourself, your family and relatives.

Nor does he attempt to investigate the assault of staff and doctors on female patients. Lullabugur is too far in line to claim innocence

Then, while talking, a kuer who has been transformed into Amelia Sauron appears. It only looked like a sudden collapse of the person, and the directors screamed.

"Please wait! I have contributed to society! I'm a must in this country!"

But he seems to be working enough to change the direction of his defense.

"In your eyes we may have looked like an evil group! But a patient is not an innocent pathetic lamb! Some of them kill innocent ordinary people or embezzle taxes to play Some of the aristocrats were brought here because they did or did so much that they could do so, but judging by law would hurt their names! "

When the director complained, Vandaloo stopped his hand. Other doctors and priests who saw it also made similar claims one after another as if they saw it as a pulse.

"Sure, Amelia Sauron himself has not committed any sins! But she and her daughter were early successors for the stability of the Duke of Sauron and for the peace of the whole country. I wanted to drop out of the fight! "

"We weren't involved in anything when she visited this clinic! True!"

"Even if we didn't do it, surely some temple would have done the same! Some people in the world would be unhappy even though they weren't bad! They would be!"

In response, Vandalu raised a question.

"I forgot to ask, will you bring desserts after meals? Or will you order them right now?"

It was a question that had nothing to do with their claims.

"N-Nana!"

"Master, they may be unconscious after eating, so why not show them now?"

"That's right. By the way, dessert is a jelly of seasonal fruits and pills."

"Bugururu Lulu"

Regardless of the director who is stunned by surprise and confusion and neglected anger, Vandaloo instructs the skeletons to prepare desserts. At your feet, the kule shakes like jelly, but you can't see them.

"Oh, I think you're misunderstanding ... I'm not doing this to you because of justice. I don't know if you're good or evil, or if you need it in society. ,Does not matter.

I am grateful to Amelia Sauron and her new friends that you put poison-like pills on them, dashing them up for money, assaulting them, and leaving them unchecked. I do it because there is no. "

Speaking of that, Vandaloo puts syrup with pills on jelly whose skeleton is lined with "O-pan".

"So, whether you are contributing to society or necessary in this country, you don't know ... there are some people in the world who are unhappy when they're not bad. If you're right, you're right now. ''

After seeing the eyes of Vandaloo, he could not speak. The dark blue eyes of purple and crimson felt like the entrance of the abyss .... The illusion that a monster was looking at me from beyond the eyes.

"... we would have gone too far to make a contribution to society and to assert our value."

Along with the skeletons, Dr. Hoover Thorn, who had been confined to his room, entered the room with the skeleton.

Former colleagues protest against him, who is unrestrained unlike themselves.

"Hey! Did you sell us !?"

"Well, you're the habit of a burrow in the same hole as us!"

Hoover, however, smiled calmly at their abuse.

"Certainly, I'm no different from this psychiatric clinic. I know that."

Then, while saying so, he headed to a vacant seat where no one was sitting, and he sat down on his chair.

"That's why I must be punished."

And while saying so, observe the manners and wear a napkin. Upon seeing it, the directors peeled and shouted.

"Is that sane?"

"Yes, I'm sane, and I'm feeling very radiant now. In front of this supper, I'm convinced that I'm the most free in my life."

Hoover answered, and the directors seemed to have no words. However, when Vandaluu told a word, they began to fuss again.

"Bon Appetite"

Knochen's body consists of screwing a dish into the mouth of a person who screams noisily, shaking his head from side to side, grasping the head of the person trying to escape, tightening his head, and closing his mouth to the nose of those who do not open I closed my mouth and waited to open my mouth.

Hoover moved his hand at his own will. The first is salad, an appetizer. The refreshing aroma and acidity of the dressing, which is unlikely to be mixed with pills, goes well with the chewy and subtle sweetness of leafy vegetables and enhances appetite.

And I felt a feeling of drunkenness that I remember when I drank alcohol. Is this the same pill effect that the director prepared?

"If you think about it, I gave it to the patient but never drank it myself."

With that said, Hoover next reached for soup and bread. The soup has a miraculous harmony between the root vegetables and the bitterness of the pills, and goes well with bread in which the pills are kneaded into the dough.

"Oh, it's delicious. It's delicious."

With that said, when the white fish and the pills reached for the pie-wrapping of the ingredients, their vision was distorted. While struggling, he broke the crispy pie with a fork and ate it with white fish and felt no bitterness. The fish body that crumbles in the mouth and the inside of the mouth, the medicinal herbs with medicinal ingredients and the flavor of the powder of dried internal organs of monsters, salt and herbs, butter of puff pastry ... ... and probably the taste is adjusted with milk, Unpleasant bitterness has been turned into umami.

Or is the taste already gone? Reach for a spicy, savory meat dish to make sure. She pierces a large meat dumpling with a trembling hand and carries it to her mouth with difficulty.

The meat dumpling collapsed surprisingly soft and filled Hoover's mouth with gravy. After all, I don't feel the bitterness of pills at all. Or is the bitterness successfully removed in the cooking process?

"Nyanfu ... Delicious ..."

The whole body is wrapped in cold, and my arm no longer moves well. Hoover squeezed his face into rice, as if a dog, put it in his mouth ... before he chewed, his consciousness was interrupted.

In the quiet room, a miserable sight spread.

Those who spill their own blood from the mouth with the juice or sauce of the dish, those who repeat convulsions with a face that can be seen at a glance, and those who continue to sing a small humming with their white eyes open.

"Oh!"

Knochen's body continues to feed the directors in such a state. Pour the cut food into your mouth and swallow it. It continued from appetizers to desserts until all dishes were empty.

"It's fine in that kind of place."

"Oh?

"Yes, no one is dead yet, but that's okay, because they ... at least their bodies will work from tomorrow."

The directors are all still alive. Yes, life is maintained by the magic of Vandaloo.

"It's a spectacle that I don't know which is better, keeping my life with the magic of [Death Delay] or dying as it is, Master."

"In this case, I think it's easier to die. The purpose of applying the magic of [Death Delay] to these guys is not to make them easier."

Vandaluu's death attribute magic, Death Delay, is a magic that literally delays death. A magical subject does not heal the wound, nor does the poison disappear. It just doesn't die.

Whether the heart beats, loses a lot of blood, has no oxygen in the lungs and is full of water, has fatal damage to the brain, prolongs time to death. You are forced to live alive.

It is a technique to postpone the death of a patient and give treatment during that time. However, suffering can be prolonged in this way.

"I'd just leave it overnight with brainwashing. That's okay. Elizabeth left me to them."

"... As usual, when I'm not in front of Mrs. Amelia, I'll call it with a shape. Do you know her original position as a teacher?"

"I haven't talked about it yet. You probably think you're hiding something, and I'm honest about what you're hiding."

"... I don't think that way"

The way to say to Elizabeth and Mahalia, who was also complained to Chur-

"I'm hiding you a serious truth. Because I think that various things will be better if you don't know yet. You can't go back if you know it.

However, if you want to know, please feel free to say. I will tell you everything. "

It was that.

At this point, Vandaloo does not expect Elizabeth to leave. It is possible that you will not come to the Vidal Demon Empire, which is inside the Border Mountains, or that you will go on an adventure with members other than Vandaloo after graduating from Hero Preparatory School. But for Vandaloo that doesn't mean "away".

If they have received [Vandaloo's blessing], they will be Vandaloo's friends no matter where they are doing.

In the past, Vandaloo once thought of his attitude toward others as "do not refuse to come and do not chase away", but now it may be "possessed of those who leave."

"By the way, what about Dr. Hoover?"

"I'm faint, as you can see, but otherwise I'm fine. When he fainted, the master erased more than lethal components with [disinfection]."

The medicines prepared by the director only show their original effect when taken continuously. A single dose does not cause severe disability unless the lethal dose is exceeded.

Why did only Hoover help? Why did you eat like the directors if you were to help? Because he himself sought punishment.

Hoover, as he said, denied himself to be the same hole as the directors. So we asked the Vandaloos for the same punishment. However, Vandaloo did not intend to treat him the same as the directors.

Therefore, Hoover did not detain Knochen and, unlike the directors, allowed him to eat his own food. Don't eat again after losing consciousness.

… Of course, the lethal dose has not been exceeded, but the dosage has not been adhered to, so there is a slight effect on health. He will experience symptoms of drunkenness and severe hangover for a week or a month.

"So, does he send it to Tarosheim for recuperation?"

"Yes, it's better than being here. There seems to be no family or relatives, so I'll make a messenger for brainwashing the directors, then go back to the doctor's office and go to Amelia to drink medicinal water So take action on your own. "

"I understand, Master."

"Oh!"

Work in the Knochen canteen in the courtyard of the clinic continued until midnight.

And the morning of the sixth day after Bandarou was hospitalized. Elizabeth, who had arrived at the Heroes Preparatory School, asked Pauvina with a grumpy face.

"So why are both Vandalu and my mother still in the hospital. The clinic reams ... they've done that, right?"

She and Mahalia have been told by Vandalou what the directors were doing to Amelia and who commissioned it.

Elizabeth then commissioned Vandalu to handle the directors. To be more precise, I did a round throw. Because the only thing I could come up with was Elizabeth, and I hated Count Leamsand, who had been deceiving himself for years than the directors. And I was convinced that leaving them to Vandalu would be a crueler end.

... By the way, Dr. Hoover knows to help. He also wanted to be punished by himself.

"No way, he's going to hide behind me and flirt with his mother ...!?"

"That's why I wrote in a letter that I would be hospitalized for seven days, so I will still be hospitalized today and tomorrow."

"Still, you can go out of the clinic separately."

"I think so, but it's no use because Duke Jahan will come to see you."

"... Why is the Duke going to see you !? I usually just send me a letter or letter of use or visit!"

The duke visits a facility where no one would prefer to come. It's not prohibited, but it's a rumored action. You can't be hospitalized unless you're a very close partner.

"Why?-The Duke told Darussia mama that he wanted to go to see him. Rather, today's after-school special training, is it OK to rank 6 soon?"

"In addition, yesterday night, I got two names," Daughter of the Great Demon King ", various unidentified blessings, etc. I wanted to ask about things ... but I'm not going to stop everything, so I'm not going to fight against the rank 6 monsters.

"It's a wise decision, young lady."

Later that afternoon, Duke Jahan stepped into a psychiatric clinic to visit Vandaloo.
