whip

Guess it wasn’t a lie that he said he would wait at the mansion for the next two days, and when the class was over, Hori came to me with a bag full of things.

It had not been long since class had ended, but seeing that he had packed his belongings so quickly, it seemed that the moneylender must have suffered quite a bit.

“… Are you really going to wait two days?”

“yes!! I’ve been waiting all my life for this day!! Compared to the time we’ve been waiting for so far, two days are in the blink of an eye!!”

“Well then. The user hasn’t come yet, so let’s eat at the restaurant.”

We left our luggage in the classroom for a while and went to the restaurant. After a quick meal, we packed our bags and headed to the mansion.

Hori’s steps toward the mansion were as light as if they were going on a picnic.

Hori, who arrived at the mansion earlier than me with a light footstep, stood in front of the gate of the mansion, saw the sight through the gate, and stopped with her mouth wide open.

Looking at the newly renovated mansion and reacting like that, it seems that Hori is the kind of person who can understand what beauty is.

“How are you?”

“yes? Ah yes… mmm, that’s cool… .”

As you enter the newly renovated mansion, the first thing that catches your eye is a large blade that protrudes like a horn on the roof of the mansion.

When I turned my eyes away from the orange blade of the blade in the sunset light and looked down, I saw hundreds of katanas with katanas in a leaded state between the white flowers in full bloom in the garden.

In addition to the garden, katanas were placed or stored throughout the mansion site, and they were carefully placed so that you can feel the katana wherever you are.

The most notable part was the huge katana model, which was installed between the garden and the fountain, which was about 10 meters high.

The gigantic katana, which seemed to have been left behind by a giant to rest for a while, boasted a magnificent figure that made my heart flutter.

Seeing that gigantic katana, I wondered if Hori had any feelings for it, so I stared at the katana for a while, then opened my mouth.

“By the way, Mr. I’m asking just in case something like that in my workshop… Are the blades sprouting?”

“No, I couldn’t install it there because I didn’t have enough money.”

“Whew… .”

Hori let out a deep sigh, probably upset that he didn’t attach a blade to his workshop only.

Seeing her react that way, as soon as there is room in her wallet, I should add a blade to her workshop as well.

“By the way, Mr. You said you don’t have money to rebuild the estate. Where did you get the money to build such a large katana?”

“There was alcohol left behind by the mother and daughter in the kitchen. I thought it would be expensive, so I entrusted my feelings and found out that it was a very expensive drink.”

The joy I felt at that time was ten times the joy of finding a crumpled 10,000 won in a jacket I hadn’t worn for a long time.

Although Marina had emptied four bottles, she sold all the remaining liquor and raised enough money to redecorate the mansion.

“No, how expensive was it… How much did it cost you to do all of this?”

“Well… I can’t remember the exact amount, but it must have been about 7,000 gold coins?”

“7,000… ?”

When he heard an amount that was far beyond his common sense, Hori stiffened like a freshly forged katana.

Hori, who kept muttering the number seven thousand over and over like a broken cassette tape, wondered if she had been like that for the rest of her life, and then opened her mouth.

“… In an instant, my head went white.”

It was understandable that Hori reacted like that. 7,000 gold coins was a lot of money to build a small mansion in the royal capital.

It would be right to spend such a large amount of money to refurbish a mansion for only three years, but I have no doubt that creating a sword-friendly environment will lead to skill improvement.

“In a situation where you have to write, like now, you should write it sparingly.”

“This is a necessary situation… .”

With an expression of disbelief, Hori went into the room she had been looking for when she had stayed before.

After a while, the non-stop rattling in the room stopped, and after a while, Hori, with sweat on her forehead, came out of the room.

He must have had a lot of trouble organizing it because he had a lot of luggage.

“Good job, but the bathroom is on the second floor.”

“No, there is, but… . Rather, I want to hear what kind of medicine you want before the workshop is repaired.”

“A drug that can make you stronger without getting sick.”

“Is strength without pain really meaningful?”

“Is doping a practice?”

If it had been anyone else, the remarks would have left my head straight, but now I’m somewhat accustomed to Hori’s madness, and I lightly skipped it.

“Then, isn’t there a drug that can make you stronger permanently, not just temporary doping? It’s better to get sick once than to get sick every time… .”

That’s what I said, but it doesn’t make sense even if I think about it. It’s not a game, and there’s no way there’s a drug that makes you stronger by drinking it.

Even if Hori was a genius, it was too much of an unreasonable request to create such a convenient drug.

“Is this going to be difficult for you too? It’s not temporary, it’s permanent.”

“no? Is it possible?”

“… … Is it possible?”

I wondered if I heard something wrong, so even if I asked again, Hori nodded with a nonchalant expression.

“I, really?”

“It’s possible, but I’m a little worried about whether the pain caused by drinking the drug should be considered the same as the pain caused by doping… .”

“What are you thinking about… . Shouldn’t it be difficult to make the drug or the materials are rare or something like that?”

“The material is partially correct, but… The recipe itself is simple enough that you can make it with equipment you have in your room.”

As I listened closely, I heard that it wasn’t Hori who made the drug, but an alchemist from the past named Wave.

“The drug, later named Devil’s Essence, is said to be a drug developed from an idea that came to mind after watching a blacksmith making a magic sword.”

Wave, who saw the use of magical beasts or demonic material to infuse power into the sword, wondered if it could be applied equally to humans.

It was the essence of the devil, a drug that was developed in such a way to make the body stronger by giving the power of the being as it is to the user.

“It sounds like a really good drug, but if there is such a drug, why don’t people take it?”

“that is… There was one problem.”

“Problem?”

“To briefly explain how the devil’s essence strengthens the human body… .”

If the human body is a vessel and the water contained in it is power, then the essence of the devil pours more water into the already full vessel and widens the vessel.

If you do so, the potion, that is, the total amount of power itself, increases, so even after the medicinal effect is lost, the effect does not disappear and remains.

“But the problem is that in the process of expanding this vessel, the body’s load could not be tolerated, and most of the users died.”

“Yeah, hitting it with a baldo is like forcing two katanas into one scabbard. But then, shouldn’t it be okay to make medicine with weak materials first and then slowly expand the bowl?”

“Because the materials are expensive, it takes a lot of money to make it once, and above all else, it’s difficult to control. Each person has a different degree of acceptance.”

In the past, many people took the devil’s essence saying they would be fine, and if 100 people took it, about 99 people would die on the spot.

“In the process, many young children of knightly families and children of noble families also died, making Devil’s Essence the first banned drug in the history of the kingdom.”

“But will you make it for me?”

“Fufu… . When did we care about that?”

However, as long as it is a drug with such a risk, the country is a little reluctant to take it multiple times.

If possible, I want to finish it in one go, but if that is the case, I want to finish using the strongest material possible at once.

“… … Is there no dragon anywhere?”

“Iknow, right. Dragon blood is useless.”

I can only understand Marina’s heart, who was looking for a catalyst to maintain the barrier, in this way.

As Yong was something that was rare in the original novel, this plan had to be pushed back for the time being.

“Then, for the time being, I will have no choice but to use the ordinary medicine I made!!”

“… … .”

“… It’s really ridiculous.”

The moment he heard the conversations of the demon swords reflected on the wall, his hair turned white as if he had been hit hard in the back of the head with a hammer.

It was a conversation without intellect or pride, to the extent that I wondered if it was possible that they were doing something like this because they were caught eavesdropping.

When he saw the doctor sitting next to him in such an absurd mind, he also had a bewildered expression on his face.

“Usually we decided to purge someone, but if the situation is difficult, what kind of strategy do we plan? Aren’t you just giving up?”

“These are people who cannot even accept the fact that they have been culled. Don’t ask for too much.”

So, when something difficult happens, it is either passed on to someone or turned away from the problem.

Perhaps, if he meets a new owner who will satisfy him, he will immediately throw away his idiotic ideas such as the Demon Sword Liberation Movement.

“So what does the captain say when he sees this?”

“Looking at them, he smiled and said this. If the horse doesn’t move, use the ‘whip’ to make it move.”

“whip?”

I heard it for a moment and wondered what it meant, but then I remembered what I had been keeping for hundreds of years and laughed.

“… If I said something, it’s just like a pun.”

“Hmm… . Anyway, since you’re telling us to use the whip, we’ll use the new one we brought along with the whip. Ganryu Gongdo is getting ready to depart.”

“To be honest, I don’t want to get involved with people like that, but this is work. still… .”

I really don’t want to
