Chapter 21: You did your best...\n \n \nCan you come to my
house?\n \nClavis definitely
said that just now.\n \nAs I recall,
Letivia is from the duke's family. If the rank system hasn't changed in the
last 300 years, they should be the highest among the nobles.\n \nSuch a duke's
family wants me to...!\n \n"........"\n \nWhen I am still
confused, Clavis speaks up again.\n \n"You don't
have to think so hard. I'm inviting you to my home for a reason. I want your
help."\n \n"My
help?"\n \n"I'll tell
you right now, Luciel-kun. You are an excellent pharmacist, right? Or perhaps
you have some medical skills that we can't even imagine?"\n \n"---!!"\n \nI gulped.\n \nThere were only
four words that popped into my head.\n \nDid they find out?\n \nI've used my
monsters knowledge to help Fletty-san and the others three times in total.\n \nThe first one was
Mildy's injury case. The second one was the magic slime I gave to Richil to
replenish her magical power. The last one was when I used the Burn Prison bird
for their food.\n \nThose are the first
times I've used my monsters knowledge on others, albeit in secret.\n \nI thought I used
it carefully and secretly, but he might have noticed something strange.\n \nMost importantly,
when I let it appears on my face, I am already lost.\n \n"How did you
find out?"\n \n"Hahaha...
That's easy. Because your power is too great."\n \n"The one you
gave to Mildy, the appraisal magic revealed that it had strong pain relief and
regenerative effects."\n \nKarim points his
finger at his own eye.\n \nOne of his eyes
glows lightly and softly, and a magic circle shines inside.\n \nI knew it,
appraisal magic. And it is a very high-level one.\n \n"I've never
heard of a drug that can both relieve pain and regenerate the body at the same
time. What's more, I heard that what you gave her was a kind of candy. I've had
my people look into it, but there is no such medicine in the literature."\n \nKarim continues to
speak.\n \nI feel like I'm
being cornered step by step.\n \n"The same
goes for the magic recovery potion that you gave to Richil. And above all, all
of the knights have acquired a strong resistance to fire. You did that too,
didn't you?"\n \nKarim asked me
gently.\n \nIt may sound like
an interrogation if I didn't listen carefully, but Karim and Clavis try to be
very careful not to scare me.\n \nIt is like a guard
asking a crying child, "Where is your home?"\n \nHowever, it
doesn't mean they are not wary of a child who has magically transformed their
knights without permission.\n \nKarim's hand is
always on the sheath of his sword, and Clavis hasn't taken his eyes off me
since he approached me.\n \nThe fact that they
are trying not to be caught off guard by a child like me shows that they are
taking care of each other.\n \nAfter all, they're
Fletty's lords.\n \nI'm sure they're
very kind people, too.\n \nI'm sure they
really don't want to pull out their sword against a child.\n \nClavis and his
family should be fine.\n \nThey may be very
surprised by the truth, and they may not like it, but .......\n \nI feel that I can
reveal the truth about my monsters knowledge to these people.\n \nAbove all, I don't
want to keep lying to these people.\n \n"Can you wait
here for a moment? I'll be right
back."\n \nClavis made eye
contact with Karim beside him.\n \nAfter a moment of
eye contact, he nodded.\n \n"Very
well."\n \nI temporarily
leave Clavis and head back towards the mountain. After a few moments of
searching for what I was looking for, I immediately came back to meet them.\n \nI put down a
monster on the ground.\n \n"Slime?"\n \nMildy tilts her
head. The little girl, who I haven't even heard her name yet, hides behind
Clavis and shakes her shoulders.\n \n"I'm going to
show you a little magic trick now."\n \n"A magic
trick?"\n \nI smile at the
little girl as I bow my head like a clown.\n \nDon't be afraid.
It's okay, I told her with my eyes.\n \nThey probably
wouldn't believe me if I told them that the candy was made from a monster.\n \nMonsters are magic
stone creatures .......\n \nWhen their core
magic stone is destroyed, they will disappear from this world.\n \nThat's what most
people think.\n \nThat's right. I'm
probably the only person in this world who has monsters knowledge...\n \nI reach out my
hand to the slime.\n \nI try to move my
hand as close as possible to its core and just scrape off the amoeba-shaped
part.\n \n"Ooh...!"\n \n"My
God!"\n \n"No
way!"\n \nEveryone shouted
in surprise.\n \nThe little girl
also widened her eyes in surprise as she hid behind Clavis.\n \n"The slime
doesn't disappear?"\n \n"That slime,
won't it disappear if it's only in its amoeba form?"\n \nMildy asked.\n \n"No, it
won't."\n \nI scratched the
amoeba-like part of the slime with my fingernail.\n \nThen the core of
the slime - the magic stone - is broken down. At that moment, it disappears
from this world.\n \n"If the outer
shell that covers the core suffers a certain amount of damage, it will
disappear, as you all know. Also, it is not so obvious, but it seems that if
the thin vein that passes the magic power between the outer shell and the core
is cut off, it will turn into a magic stone... Suppose the outer shell is
scraped off without damaging them. In that case, some of the separated outer
shells will remain intact before the core is destroyed."\n \n"If you take
away the teeth, fangs, or scales while the monster is still alive, it will
remain intact, but does that mean that there is no magical vein between the
core and the outer shell in that area?"\n \nKarim put his hand
on his chin as he listened to my explanation.\n \n"It's doesn't
mean there's no vein, but I think the magic vein is probably very thin."\n \n"Just like
human blood veins, some are big and some are small. Monsters also have various
sizes of tubes to transmit magic power."\n \nClavis nodded once
again.\n \n"You can
think of it as something similar to that."\n \n"Ah, wait a
minute. Luciel-kun. Is... Is it possible
that the candy you gave to Richil and me?"\n \n"Ye, yes,
....... I'm very sorry to tell you this, but that candy was made from
slime."\n \n"So, so
that's true! Hawawawawa...... I
ate a candy made from a monster."\n \n"But don't
worry, I have sterilized it properly by boiling it in hot water."\n \nI excuse myself,
but the place has completely quieted down.\n \nWell, it can't be
helped.\n \nEven though it was
an emergency, I put monster meat into a person's mouth.\n \nIt can't be helped
if she gets angry.\n \nI don't say
anything more. As I lower my head, Clavis puts his hand on my head.\n \n"You did your
best..."\n \nClavis said gently
and patted me on the head. \n ==================================
