Tensei Saki ga Shoujo Manga no Shiro Buta Reijou datta Chapter 93

The colour of the east sky began to turn white. Morning was about to come.

However, enemy soldiers kept trying to go up the slope without giving up.

Even if they were exterminated one after another, to them that appeared out of nowhere, they were at their wit's end due to the soldiers protecting the western town and the platoon borrowed from Prince Marlow. But there was no way for our soldiers to cover the difference in original number.

While watching the situation with rapidly beating heart, new information just came.

The soldiers of the leadership movement were going down to south.

It seemed that the soldiers were raising the green banner of Astor earldom.

For the startled officials, Ricardo informed that "they're reinforcements".

As he said so, the reinforcements immediately started to fight against the enemies. Even with the reinforcements, both sides were equal in number. Millard had hired a large number of mercenaries.

The dark mood lingering inside the office began to soften as we saw more hope compared to before.

However, at such timing, multiple screams could be heard from downstairs.

[What happened?]

[I don't know. Ricardo, let's go.]

We went down the stairs along with several officials. The origin of the screams seemed to be the large room where injured people were resting.

Here, soldiers who got injured in battle were taken to this place and given first-aid.

The official who came from inside appealed to me with a pale face.

[This is terrible! An enemy soldier slipped in between the patients!]

[…Then, where is that soldier?]

[He's rampaging inside. Now, the one who is guarding the office is desperately stopping him…]

Ricardo ran into the room as soon as he heard the reply.

As he ran towards the enemy soldier who was engaged with our soldier, he drove a strong blow to the enemy's solar plexus. The enemy was taken aback and sank on the spot.

(Compared to the past, Ricardo is getting stronger…?)

While thinking that he became more reliable as he grew up, I instructed the official to review all the patients.

Ricardo confirmed that the one at the center was an Astor's soldier.

The injuries of the patient who got caught up in the fight deteriorated and he had to be moved to a separate room for his treatment.

[What should I do, the medicine for disinfection has expired.]

A woman from this town who was helping with patient care had appealed to me in panic.

Generally, the disinfectant used in this area referred to alcohol with high percentage content.

Nonetheless, the amount stocked was probably not large.

[What to do… sure, there are herbs used for scents that are stocked in this town's warehouses.]

In this town, using the salt we extracted from the ocean, we started to manufacture bath salts.

In addition, this area also produced seaweed, which was a material to make soap, so my cousin established a soap manufacturing facility in this area.

TN: Seaweed Soap

And among these materials, essential oils with antibacterial properties such as tea tree oil were stocked. Lavender also had sterilization effect and could calm the mind.

(For now, let's prepare everything that's usable.)

However, I remembered that the warehouses where the materials were stored was near the harbor.

In other words, in order to procure them, I had to go out of the government office and head to the west side.

[This is troubling. During this battle, we have to go back and forth between the office and the warehouses.]

Even if somebody went there, soldiers who were not knowledgeable couldn't distinguish herbs.

(The manager of herbs… she should be a woman that can't fight.)

According to the officials, in this town the men often went fishing while the women engaged in manufacturing bath salts and soaps as source of income.

(Here, I feel that it's the easiest for me to be the one to go since I know minimal self-defense.)

Since there's no choice, I decided to take a few escorts with me and headed for a nearby warehouse.

I changed to clothes that were easy to move in, and went out of the government office like a soldier.

Ricardo and the others came with me.

[Britney, I will also go. The confirmation of the injured people can be left to the subordinates.]

After finishing his work, he came hurriedly. I spoke with hesitation.

[There are enemy soldiers, won't it be dangerous?]

[That's why I came. I don't want you to go to a dangerous place.]

While his honesty was reassuring, I was concerned about him.

I had to bring back the materials here quickly.

We headed towards our destination while hiding from the enemy soldiers. Fortunately there were many hiding places, so we could reach the warehouse safely.

The problem was the returning while carrying the baggage.

In the back of the warehouse, the essential oils were stored in big bottles.

I took out those that seemed useful, and thanks to my powerful escorts and Ricardo, the work was carried out without difficulty.

I also carried a bottle and when I tried to leave the warehouse—

From the entrance, a familiar figure with several enemy soldiers came in.
