The Tale of the Teapot Hero’s Revenge
272 Witch
When I came to see the fishmonger witch, the witch's disciple attacked me, and the disciple was Elia.
Both me and Toka are turning a blind eye to a situation where we don't know what it is.
He wasn't this strong in the first place.
It should have been a more hefty one.
"Come on, Lord Brave. You must have come to see the witch. Please, come here."
"Ugh, yeah......"
I nodded unexpectedly, but come on, Lord Brave, it's not.
There are a bunch of things I'd like to ask you, but Beat is the top priority now.
Not if you're relaxing.
First, Toka gave me my bear back, and I stumbled back on the princess.
"Hey Killier. He's Elias, no matter what you think. That strength, is it real?
"I don't think it's a niceties thing. You don't feel hostile, and if it's a trap, you don't choose Elias."
There are more effective opponents than that.
Is that with Joana or Quina?
That's why it's real.
"Oh, hey... Ha, ha...!
That's when I heard a pitiful voice from the cave that let me out of breath.
If you look at it, Mr. Laman runs flashly as he says.
"Good day, Mr. Laman. Didn't you get hurt?
"No, I didn't get beat up, but I got so pissed off......... hmm? What about the lady in that training suit over there?
There were only stairs leading to the basement in your company.
There's a witch. The training ground is down here.
"I can't believe a new disciple is a human being. Nah, surprise."
"I was surprised, too. Mr. Raman was first met, wasn't he, Elia?"
"You traveled west looking for medical technology to help Bell. Until we get to the land of the fishermen, I'm convinced..."
At the end of the descent down the stone staircase illuminated with torches, it followed the passage of the stone wall.
A few lined wooden Toviras appear to be rooms for learning medicine.
Hit Elia in the doubt as she goes down such a aisle.
"Let me know anyway. I don't know how you decided to become an apprentice, because this one is refreshing."
"It will be very long if we talk, so if we talk about it in hindsight...... I asked the witch to save Lord Bell, but she couldn't send a fishmonger doctor outside because of a code issue, so I decided to take her home with me, remembering my skills to treat her."
"Heh..."
How many stories were there in that scratchy explanation?
I'm curious, but it's going to be very, very long indeed.
I hope I find out again someday, when I get a chance.
And while we were talking about that, Elia stopped in front of a certain room.
"The witch is waiting for you in this back. Go ahead."
"Was this room just for visitors? I'm getting a little excited to think I haven't seen a witch in a long time...!
You've been on a journey all this time and you haven't seen me, I know how you feel.
But, Mr. Laman, it's a shame you're stretching under your nose, isn't it?
"Witch, I have brought you Lord Brave"
"Yeah, I know. I watched everything."
I heard a clear voice from beyond Tvira.
Still, where were you watching it from?
Speaking of which, you heard voices from nowhere earlier...
Anyway, Elia opened the drawer and went inside the room.
The interior was quite different from the country we live in.
Cabbage and ceilings made side by side with thin wooden planks.
A candlestick made of wooden bones is surrounded by thin paper around the fire.
I didn't even see a table or anything, and it was on the floor like a very small cushion.
I feel that the culture is just different.
And I caught a glimpse of it in this first room full of things to see.
"Welcome. Chosen by Empireo, Dear Killier the Brave. I'm serving as a witch, my name is Lahai."
Amazingly pretty fishmonger woman person.
Dark blue skin, long watery hair.
There are fins coming out of my hair around my ear and I don't feel fishy on my face.
I think my lips are a little thick, to the extent that I can say that they are very beautiful.
I've never seen a fishmonger woman before, but you're like this.
"Witch! Come on, we're back! I missed you!
"Good luck with your long journey, Raman. Let me tell you something about souvenirs."
"Yes, I'm happy!!
Smiled at me, Mr. Raman. I'm boned already.
That's a hell of a story, isn't it?
Is that the one you can tell me...?
"Come on, ladies and gentlemen, come on in."
Please, even if they say so.
As I was face-to-face with Toka, Mr. Raman to the witch, Elia sat upright on the mini cushion.
Let's see the Toka, too. Sit in the same way with a look.
After I let Beato lie gently on the floor.
"First of all, I beg your pardon for the disrespect of Elias. I heard about Master Killier from Elia. She told me she couldn't tell if you were a dangerous person."
... Oh, I guess so.
Until Elia and I broke up, that is, until I fought Joana, because now I thought it was pretty rough.
"But even if Elias was tempted to kill you for hiding who you were, you didn't try to kill her. You are a man of good faith."
Looks like he was a lot more alert.
Trusted and above all, but now more than that......
"Oh, um..., witch. I'm here for a favor."
"You mean that girl, right?
was suddenly returned at the core when I let myself feel like doing it and all of a sudden I cut to the point.
I haven't even checked yet.
"I can just see it. The magic around your body is disturbed. Lights of life are shaken by such powerful magic that even the flow of life is impeded so that small waves are wiped out by large waves"
"Help... can you...?
Just a little bit, my voice shook.
Because the moment they say no, they can hold all hope.
Because once Beat's death is confirmed, I can't live anymore either.
"Normal medicine is impossible. Maybe a month or something."
"... eh"
"But if it's fishman technology...... It is possible to give up her life if she has the wisdom sealed in" The Jewel of the Sea God "."
In the dark, I felt the light shine.
I felt that way anyway, like I was pulled up from the river just before I drowned, like I was grabbed by my arm on the verge of falling into a scratch.
"Please! Beato, help Beato!
"Of course it is. As someone who cares about medicine, you have no choice but not to save a dying life."
The witch rose from the mini cushion and lifted Beat's body.
Only a fisherman, seems bigger than a human woman.
"Raman, Elia, give me a hand. Elias, this is the first time you've ever shown your magic medicine."
"Oh, can I have some food with you?!? Wow, that helps!
"Let me study, Witch, Lord Raman"
"Dear Kirier, Your loved one, I will temporarily (when) keep you"
"Nice to meet you......!
Smiling and nodding, the witch left the room with the two of them.
It was me and Toka who were left behind.
I wonder if I should wait here until the end of my treatment.
"Good for you. Beato, we're gonna figure this out."
"Yeah......"
"And you're surprised, I can't believe Elias was an apprentice. I was keeping an eye on him because the country didn't know he was a disciple."
"Yeah......"
Something's getting messy in front of me, whether I'm relieved or out of my mind.
What Toka is saying doesn't really come to mind either.
"To say I'm surprised, he's strong. What the hell kind of training did you get? If it was an easy way, Atashi would be challenged and empowered, too --"
Oh, no more.
I stayed up all night last night despite everything that happened, and I fought as much as I wanted just now.
"... that? Hey, Killier?
Toka's body, which was vertical, swept sideways.
No, it's my body that's barely there.
Heavy eyelids, blurred consciousness.
I'm sure you'll have nightmares, but that's enough. No, I was helped by Beato...
