Frontier Magic Pharmacist

Chapter 56 – Vibrant and Happily Ever After!

In the afternoon, I headed to the Knights’ training grounds as planned. Rosalia is going to her friend’s place for a play called a tea party. She was carrying the lamp magic tool she made yesterday with her own power, so she must be going to show it to them.

I arrived at the training ground with a clanking sound while carrying the elementary stamina recovery potion in a wooden box. It seemed that they were having a mock battle, and I could hear a lot of loud voices coming from far away. It was indeed a powerful scene.

I thought it would not be good to disturb them, so I headed ahead to the building where they were building the shower room.

Oh, the outside of the building was already completed. That’s pretty fast. I talked to the workers.

“Thank you very much for your hard work. It looks like construction is progressing very quickly.”

“Good day to you, Julius-sama. The knights are urging me to do so. They want us to build it as soon as possible.”

The master is smiling bitterly. I am sorry, master. Our knights have been asking too much of you. I was thinking of offering him some elementary Stamina recovery medicine, but I don’t want this magic medicine to spread outside from there. I’m sorry, but maybe another time.

After that, he showed me the inside and we talked about where to put the magic tools. The master was quite surprised when I told him that I was the one who made the magic tools.

He seemed interested in the shower room, so I asked him to use it when it was finished.

If word of the shower room spread from the master, showers might spread throughout the territory. If this happens, the territory will become cleaner and less prone to epidemics. Improving hygiene is very important.

On the way back to the training site, I looked around at the place where the soap was drying. The drying process is progressing well, and by the time the shower rooms are completed, the soap will be ready as well. If this goes well, maybe we can try to expand this to the common people? No, if I do that, will I get scolded by the people who make soap? That’s a bit of a hold up.

When I reached the training grounds, it was time for a break. Even though autumn was deepening, everyone is drenched in sweat.  They might catch a cold if I didn’t do something. I was getting worried.

I knew I had to finish the shower room as soon as possible so they could wash their bodies after training, wash off the sweat, and change into fresh clothes.

“Julius-sama, you’re here. I am sorry I didn’t notice you.”

One of the knights who was taking a break noticed me and called out to me.

“It’s fine. I had a look at the shower room building and the soap first. It looks like they’re both coming along much faster than expected.”

“Yes. It’s what everyone here has been praying for.”

“You’re overreacting. Don’t put too much pressure on the masters. If they get hurt in the rush, it would be a disaster. I think the soap will be ready to use soon. Don’t overdo it over there, either, and don’t rush to dry them with magic.”

The knights around us smiled wryly.

I didn’t think that the shower room and soap were that eagerly awaited. If I had noticed it earlier, I could have at least taught them how to make soap right away.

“Ah, that’s right. I brought you something.”

“Brought us something?”

The knights were puzzled. I took a red bottle out of the wooden box, and they seemed to notice what it was.

“That’s an elementary stamina recovery medicine, isn’t it?”

“Yes, that’s right. but it’s a little different from the one I brought last time. It’s less effective, but easier to take. How about it?　Would you like a bottle?”

I offered them a bottle of the elementary stamina recovery potion to restore their strength. The knights took it without hesitation. It seemed that no one doubted the magic potion I had made. Is this all right?　Shouldn’t They be a little wary?

The knights open the lid. Pop!　The sound echoed in the autumn sky.

“Then, “Bon appétit!”

Hands on hips, stirring all at once. The knights’ faces were filled with smiles as they smacked their mouths.

“Koo~, I feel so energetic and full of vitality!”

“This is good.  My tiredness has blown away.”

“I’m going to be able to do all the cleaning up I have to do in one fell swoop!”

The knights were making a lot of noise. The tension is clearly rising.  Although it is a more refreshing tension than last time.

The knights who heard the commotion came over, drank as well, and became equally energized.

“This seems to be all right, doesn’t it?”

“Julius-sama, it’s okay to drink this every day. Rather, I want to drink it every day at the end of every mission.”

“I can’t drink alcohol while on duty. On that note, I think this will be fine.”

Apparently, the product has a good reputation. If this can prevent the loss of concentration during the mission, we will be able to carry out the mission more safely. It’s not that hard to make, can I?　Consuming a lot of sugar is a bit of a problem. Sugar costs a certain amount of money.

“Then, I will make some of these elementary stamina recovery potions for you to use when you go on long-distance mission.”

“Can’t I buy them individually?”

“I don’t know if I can mass-produce it that much.　I’ll have to make other potions as well.”

“I’m sorry to hear that.”

The knights are down. Was it that good? I wish I could somehow live up to that expectation, but I can’t right now. When I graduate from the academy and am recognized as a full-fledged magic potion maker, I may be able to mass produce it. Of course, it won’t be me who will be making them, but some other potion-making company.

I plan to sell more and more recipes for magic potions, just like the blueprints for magical tools. If we want to spread magic potions around the world as quickly as possible, it would be quicker to do so. I must reform the world’s magic potions as quickly as possible. That is my mission.
