Chapter 46.2: Space Leap (4)

Scarlet was definitely a great potion.

But I wasn’t completely sure if it could heal the chieftain’s wounds.

Because, first, he was not a human, and if it was a wound from an Archmage, something could be a little different from normal.

To be honest, I was reluctant to put conditions on the treatment of an injured person, but I couldn’t help it.

The woman also looked at me without saying a word, and answered.

“I understand, so give it to me. I will guide you to places like that 100 more times.”

Originally, I was going to hand over the potion after being guided to the location, but I changed my mind.

The order didn’t really matter even if it’s possible that she could change her mind later.

Well, I hope that’s not the case.

I handed her Scarlet.

After accepting it, she stood still and looked at the chieftain.

He gestured

“Give it to me.”

The chieftain opened the potion bottle and glanced at the contents.

Then he looked surprised and nodded.

“Seeing that the scent of magical power is so strong, it’s definitely not an ordinary thing. Can I really accept this?”

“I get something in return, so I didn’t just give it for nothing.”

“Well, I guess the place you’re looking for is quite important to you. Anyway, I’ll put it to good use.”

The woman snatched the potion from him again.

“Show me your back, Grandpa. I’ll treat you right now.”

“Do you know how to use it?

“···Well, can’t it just be poured into the wound?”

She turned to look at me.

“Just let me do it.”

However, having used it a few times, I know how to use it better.

After laying the chieftain on his seat, I examined the wounds on his back.

The wound was torn at an oblique line, and there were black marks around it. The color was like that of a bruise, but the severity was incomparable to it.

Crooked.

I poured the potion little by little from top to bottom along the wounded area.

Contrary to expectations, the effect appeared shortly after.

It was a little slow, but the wounds slowly healed.

“···Ah!”

The woman who was watching the scene, restless next to him, let out a sigh.

When the wounds disappeared without a trace, the chief rose again. And he looked at me with bewildered eyes.

I asked him.

“How are you?”

“···There are still some wounds left, but the trauma seems to have completely healed. This is a really great thing.”

I nodded and gave him all the potions I had left.

“Drink all that’s left. Those wounds will recover to some extent.”

The chief drank all the remaining potions at once and set the empty bottle on the floor.

Then, with a much more lively face than before, he smiled and looked back at the woman.

“Child, what are you crying about?”

As he said, the woman’s eyes were red as if she was about to cry.

“···Are all better, Grandpa?

“Yeah. Now we can head to the sea again. Without exception, everyone.”

“Uhhh!”

She rushed into the chieftain’s arms and hugged him, and burst out crying like a child.

The chief patted her on the head.

As I didn’t know the details of what had happened to them, I just sat still and watched the scene awkwardly.

***

After exiting the cave, we returned to the carriage.

After receiving the underwater breathing magic enchantment, I headed straight to the designated place by myself.

After sitting with my back against a tree and waiting for a while, a woman appeared from within the forest.

“···What you looking at?”

The corners of her eyes were still red, so when I looked up, the blunt words returned.

I shook my head and got up from my seat.

“Let’s right away.”

The woman threw down her clothes and walked towards the lake. I followed her too.

Now it was time to go find the mystery of space leap.

She, who had been staring at the water surface, glanced at me and asked.

“But you’re human. You can’t stay in the water for long, can you?”

“It doesn’t matter because I had someone put magic on me.”

“Oh yeah···”

She hesitated as if she had something else to say, then said in a crawling voice.

“Thank you.”

“···?”

“Thank you, for treating my grandfather. Thank you so much.”

“It’s fine.”

I answered briefly.

There was nothing she had to say thank you for since I got something back for it.

As she spoke, she wiped her face with a sullen look, then stuttered and shouted.

“···It’s fine? I’m just saying thank you! Because I’m not as brazen as you!”

Was she thanking me or asking for a fight?

I sighed and said.

“Before we go in, tell me about the place I’m looking for. Somewhere in the lake.”

She glanced around the lake, pointed in one direction, and said:

“See over there? You have to go over there and go down to the point where you can almost see the bottom. It’s pretty deep.”

I also looked where she was pointing and nodded my head.
