I repeated the same process for the rest of the grell frogs, and in the end, 6 out of 25 of those I purchased today got the highest quality mark from Identify . The remaining 19 were all praised as high quality too, so they weren’t bad by any means .
The reason the quality went down was because the grell frogs were caught too crudely . The blood flow of the grell frogs worsened right as soon as I hurt them .
Also, I used the leftover grell frog hide and meat as feed for the rimel birds . I knew the rimel birds loved grell frog meat, so I brought it to them, and as expected, they had a great time . I hear rimel birds eat piratically eat anything, though, from meat to fish to fruits to vegetables to grain… Anything .
They’re omnivorous, but I suppose meat would be the main part of their diet? I should check with the tamers guild .
Before I knew it, it was already dark outside .
Just to be safe, I gathered the slimes and the rimel birds in the tunnel to ensure their safety . The slimes have gotten stronger, but the night is still dangerous, so I also blocked the entrance with some stones, making sure to just leave enough opening for the air to enter .
“Now then… It’s been a while since I last spent the night like this…” [Ryouma]
Reminds me of the time when I first got to this world…
At the time, I read the letter from Gayn and the others, then I looked for a place to stay at and found the cliff where I built my house .
That was how I learned my earth magic – by digging out a cave .
At first, my Break Rock could just barely make a crack, but somehow someway I was able to dig out a hole big enough for my body to fit in, then I blocked the entrance with a stone wall I made . My residence back then was that simple .
After that I gradually worked on the cave . I also gradually got used to the forest and started training and hunting in the night .
“…I’m not really in the mood right now, though, so… I guess I might as well just use the ingredients I prepared and make some medicine . ”
As I entered the medicine concocting room aimlessly, I took out the ingredients I got and preserved from the Forest of Gana, and stored them in the shelves .
I’d like to create a wooden shelf specifically for the medicinal herbs, but I’ll make that some other time .
The medicine I can make right now with the ingredients at hand is an… antidote . I have just enough to make an antidote that uses the liver of the grell frog .
The necessary ingredients are grell frog liver, a poisonous plant called ‘Kasuri’, a fruit of Kunashi that can be used as antidote after weakening its poison, a flower of jusho that has a strong nourishing effect, and an ufuru herb that has a diuresis effect .
After that I made a pot with earth magic, two spatulas to stir it, and a mortal and pestle . Next time I’ll just buy the tools I need . I’ve gotten by so far by making my own tools with earth magic, but it would probably be best to just buy my tools .
As I thought that, I filled the pot with water via water magic, then I put in the cut kasuri herb and kunashi fruit, then I heated the water with the electric spell, Microwave [1], as I stirred the pot .
I don’t always use this method because sometimes the ingredients are weak to heat, but the kasuri herb and the kunashi fruit are strong against heat .
As the two ingredients boiled, the color gradually dissolved, and the liquid within the pot turned violet .
Seeing that, I stopped heating the pot and let the pot cool by itself, while I crushed the dried grell frog liver .
“Should be about time…” [Ryouma]
When the pot was at a good temperature, I threw the crushed liver in and started stirring again .
When the liquid got even cooler, I added the joshu flower and ufuru herb as I ground them into tinier parts with my hands, then I stirred the pot again until they sank .
After that I left the pot to let it simmer and allow the medicinal contents to permeate .
“What should I do until then?” [Ryouma]
When I left the room, I noticed the rimel birds .
I took out my guitar from Item Box and played two national anime ending songs . I played because I saw the moon shining through the ventilation hole .
When I finished playing…
“…” [Rimel birds]
“…” [Rimel birds]
An incomprehensible sound resounded throughout the cave .
“Woah!? My ear hurts… Can you guys tone it down for a bit? Ouch…” [Ryouma]
The source of the sound was none other than the rimel birds .
They were making those beautiful chirps they made when I contracted them, but it was hard to make out the sound because we were inside a tunnel, making the sound really loud .
I ended up receiving a lot of damage, but the rimel birds seemed fine . What kind of ears do these guys have?
The slimes didn’t have ears, so they were also fine .
After that the rimel birds quietened down, and after hearing their chirps, I ate supper, and then went back to the medicine concocting room .
Extracting the medicinal effects of the joshu flower and the ufuru herb doesn’t take much time, so it should be about done .
When I used Identify on the contents of the pot…
Incomplete Antidote (High Quality)
An antidote that uses grell frog liver .
Disintegrates poisonous content and activates one’s metabolism to expel poison from the body . It works on a large variety of poison, but it is especially effective on paralyzing agents . One should drink plenty of water when taking this antidote for best results .
“Alright . It’s been a success so far . Next is…” [Ryouma]
I took out a large cloth from my Item Box, then I had the cleaner slime clean it .
This cloth belongs to one of the bandits I killed in the forest . The spaces in between its fibers is really small, so it’s perfect for straining the medicinal content from the herbs .
I covered an empty pot with the cloth, then I fixed it in place with the sticky slime’s thread . After that I slowly poured the contents of the pot through the cloth . Like that the medicine flowed into the empty pot as the cloth filtered it .
After transferring all the liquid, I removed the cloth and wrung out the medicine to the last drop .
I stirred the completed medicine with the spatula, then I used Identify on it . When I did, the ‘incomplete’ part vanished from the name of the product and the quality turned into highest quality from high quality . Well, it’s complete now, so that’s only a given .
…Now then, it’s good and all that I managed to make the medicine, but what am I supposed to do with this?
“Maybe I should’ve turned it into a pill instead to preserve it, but there weren’t enough ingredients . ” [Ryouma]
Now that I think about it, I have the poison resist skill, so a weak poison wouldn’t work against me anyway, so there’s not a lot of uses of this antidote for me .
I should have one at hand just to be safe, but I definitely won’t need an entire pot’s worth . If I transfer that entire pot into vials, I would have about 20 .
For the meantime, I used earth magic to create a funnel and a dipper, prepared a lot of vials, then filled them with the medicine one at a time .
After filling up 20 vials, I stored 19 inside my Item Box . As I fiddled with the remaining vial on hand, I left the medicine concocting room and went to the living space .
“What to do… Should I sell it at Serge-san’s, or maybe I should give it to Jeff-san and the others?” [Ryouma]
“What to do… Should I sell it at Serge-san’s, or maybe I should give it to Jeff-san and the others?” [Ryouma]
While I was thinking that, I accidentally dropped the vial .
“Acha~…” [Ryouma]
Because I kept fiddling with the vial, the cover got loose, so when it fell, all the contents came pouring out .
“Somehow I’m just not in the mood today…” [Ryomua]
Maybe it’s because of that thing age regression thing that Kufo was talking about? For some reason, I can’t change my mood very well . Who would’ve thought at this age… Ah, but I’m actually 11, ain’t I? Still… that’s only on the outside . Mentally speaking, I’m already 40, so it’s really hard to believe that I would actually be sad at this age…
In my previous life, a lot of my coworkers retired either because the work was tough or because they fainted from overwork . So I thought I’d gotten used to it already .
Of course, I’m not actually sad enough to cry, but when I’m not busying myself, I can’t help but become sad .
I pondered for about 10 seconds, and then, I made up my mind .
“…Let’s just sleep . ” [Ryouma]
Rather than try to drag myself around like this, it’s better to just sleep . As I thought that, I looked for the fallen vial to clean the spill, but for some reason, only the vial was left and the medicine was already gone .
“Huh? Where did the medicine go?” [Ryouma]
There were several slimes loitering around the room, and there were cleaner slimes among them, so maybe they’d cleaned it already? Huh . Well, that saves me the trouble, so that’s nice .
As I thought that, I went to bed .
