Day 110: Ms. Nico’s Medicine
Holy Era 6102, Month of the Moon Sheep, 1st day.
Weather: Sunny
Hmm. We stayed at a cheap inn in order to save money, but…I feel conflicted.
I know what this is. It’s proof that I’m getting used to luxury.
I have to do something about it… Otherwise, we will continue to spend too much money.
It was with such worries in my head that we went to the Guild Ship in order to search for jobs.
However…it was difficult to find something that we could do.
Most of the jobs involved going out to sea.
As we could not sail a ship, we could not accept them.
…So that left Lemora hunting again.
Still, I didn’t like to rely only on that…
Besides, there were only so many you could hunt.
What were we to do…
I did not expect being in a port town to be so difficult.
As I agonized over it, Ms. Nico brought over a few request sheets.
Gathering? But this is an E-Rank quest?
Even if we were desperate, I hesitated at the idea of accepting such a job.
But then Ms. Nico shook her head.
Apparently, she was just saying that we should go and gather these materials.
…But what for?
According to her, these materials could be used to make medicine.
Ms. Nico said that even if the materials were cheap, they would sell at a high price if processed.
I hadn’t thought about that… Not that I had the required skills, anyway.
Still, we have Ms. Nico now! So it is possible!!
And so we asked the muscular guild worker where to gather materials, and then we made our way there.
This time, we were heading to a sandy beach beyond the rocky shore where we hunted the Lemoras.
After walking for about two hours, we finally arrived…
It was a little different from what I had imagined… I thought it would be a beautiful, white beach…
But the place was mostly filled with driftwood and trash.
It would not be possible to swim here! …How sad.
But there was no point in feeling depressed about such things. It was time to work.
Besides, there might be other beaches we could swim in.
Alrigh, Ms. Nico? What should we search for?
After that, we followed Ms. Nico’s orders and gathered materials.
Shells, stones, driftwood, some kind of bones… Can you really make medicine out of such things?
It was close to evening when we returned to the town.
However, there was no time to rest, as we had to immediately head out to the Alchemists Guild.
Here, she needed to use their facilities in order to concoct the medicine.
Ah, you have to pay, huh… And the fee is… Ah! It’s a little expensive…
Once we were in the room, Ms. Noa took out the necessary tools from her dimension storage.
This was good, as it would have been expensive to rent the tools as well.
Once the tools were ready, Ms. Nico began… She looked so happy.
How long would this take? What? Half a day!?
So we should return to the inn first? Ms. Nico…
You’re going to stay up all night working…? Pl-please don’t push yourself too hard, alright?
…I wonder what kind of medicine she is making. I do hope it sells for a high price.
