When I wake up, my head is on top of a happy feeling.
But I'm still in a daze and don't know what I'm doing.
''Uh....''
I guess she's being knee-f*cked.
So that's Aina.
Yeah, I'm glad you're charitable, but hopefully you've stopped Rainrich.
Are you awake?
'No I can't... yet...'
His head was heavy, and his body was heavy. My arms were twitching repeatedly as if they were not strong enough.
Is it a reaction to that drug? What was I doing while I was unconscious?
'Here, can you drink it?'
He let me take a little bit of the drink he offered me, little by little, even though I'm still lying there.
'Ah, thank you,'
I think it's time for you to leave.
No, seriously, I can't... move yet... hmm?
Not Aina! Aina wouldn't say this.
She would have cared for me more.
I try to get up to bounce my heavy body up, but I remember hitting my head in the past with Aina.
However, the person who gave me a knee pillow avoided it lightly.
'That's dangerous..... Did you have to get up so vigorously?'
It wasn't Aina who was in front of me.
'Why would you........'
Hm... What's the difference?
Yes. It was Solte, as it turned out, who had been giving me a lap pillow.
'No, because, what? What about Aina?
What? Are you saying Aina was good? Yes, after what you did. After what you did....
Eh....
I thought you were pretending to be asleep, so I hit you, but you're really asleep. Hey, you were asleep, weren't you?
No. So what did I do in my sleep?
Can I ask you what you did, just for the record?
What? What do you want me to say?
Sorte's face is slowly flushing.
What did I really do!
You're awake, my lord. Thank God you're awake, my lord. I thought you'd never wake up again.
Aina appears with a handful of food in her hand.
I thought she was going to close the open door with her foot, but that's not the case, she puts the food down once and then closes the door.
If it were me or Sorte, I would definitely close the door with my foot, but my eyes are drawn to the food Aina brought with her.
Goooooooooooooo.
My stomach worms chorus in agreement.
'Good. I wasn't hand-holding it because Solte said she was going to do a lap job and wouldn't listen to me, but I guess it helped.
He smiled when he heard the stomach bug and handed it to me from the fruit I could eat right away.
'I didn't tell you! Aina must have left for shopping first!
'That can't be true. You were waving at me while I was on my knees when I left.
Can I eat without it?
Haragahettanoda.
Oh, I'm sorry. Of course. I know it's the middle of the evening and the middle of the day, but can we join you?
Of course. We'll eat together in the evening?
When I looked at the window, there was an orange light shining in, and I couldn't understand whether it was morning or evening sunshine, but Aina said it was evening, so it must be evening for sure.
Eh, it was at night when I was conscious, right?
Moreover, it's still rather early in the day.
I........what happened to me?
Can't you see it in there?
Solte pointed to the desk in the alchemy room that I usually use while chewing on my meat, unmannerly.
It's a great deal of accessories that I have never seen before.
''What is this?''
Did you make it? Did they make you? Accessories?
'My Lord, that was great. You seemed so focused on it that when you spoke to him, he didn't take any notice of you at all.
I wasn't really focused or even conscious.
'After I took that potion, it was as if I was totally absorbed, or at least out of it. He kept on creating exactly what Master Reinrich told him to do. He said he was sleepy, and then he disappeared right away.
"And then, all of a sudden, my lord fell over like a puppet with his strings cut. I tried to put him on his knees, but they took him away.
I didn't take it! Aina looked sleepy too, so you had no choice but to let me do it.
'But even Solte looked sleepy. Besides, you used to ask me why I was doing that when I was in your lap.
'Yes, I'm his slave now, so it's okay! Besides, you don't want to put the burden on Aina all the time!
'It's not a burden. It's kind of soothing to watch your master sleep, and, you know, it can be annoying, but it's definitely not a burden!
'Aina took it too... Then no. Absolutely no more kneeling Aina! I'll protect you from the poisonous fangs. Do you understand?
'I have no idea what Solte is talking about at all! Hey, my lord, my lord has something to say about... my lord?
Eh...... I slept almost all day?
Is there only five days left until my appointment with Wendy?
'Oh no, oh no, oh no!' We've wasted a day!
What are we gonna do? Yesterday I thought I had figured out how to do it and made the day worthwhile, but I promptly wasted almost an entire day.
'What the hell is wrong with you?' Oh, if it's a potion, we'll wholesale it to the Adventurer's Guild for you.
Thank you for that. Not that! Five days to the deadline, more than 76 million nolls! You have to earn an average of 16 million Nors a day!
Silly me.
If you asked a question on the wisdom bag on how to make 16 million yen in a day, the answer would be an absolute barrage of abuse.
That's how stupid he is.
"It.
Solte pointed to a pile of accessories on the desk.
'Rainrich-sama said it would be worth 40 million knolls if sold. If you are interested in selling them, Master Reinrich said he would give you the money first. He told me to call him when you were up.
Eh....
There is very little material left. So we are going to go and gather up some minerals for our master to use after we have eaten. So, in the meantime, I want you to have a lot of time to think about your ideas.
'You're still not happy with it anyway, are you? You should be grateful. To us and to Mr. Reinrich.
Gratitude..... I don't know if I can honestly say thank you.
You two should apologize to me first. I helped get a man to take a dangerous substance to the Lord.
The slavery restriction is a d*mn shame.
Don't tell me it's a gray area.
But that the two of you have been waiting for me to wake up the whole time! ...I can thank you for that.
And 40 million nolls, that's 40 million nolls.
Can you make 40 million knolls a day in manufacturing?
How sweet is the accessory earning business?
Thank you both. And please.
I'm in charge. - I know.
But, Mr. Reinrich. Please don't be reckless anymore.
The efficiency is certainly good. But I can't raise my arm properly!
But should we use this time to twist ideas?
There's nothing I can do either way. I can thank Reinrich for the time I've saved.
...I really don't want to do that at all.
'Oh. You're a late riser.
"Thanks to you. I slept so well with my pillows that my body is achingly tight.
Yeah!
That's good. How do you like it? Do you think you can do the same thing one more time and you'll get to 80 million knolls?
Don't be ridiculous. More than a teaspoon of this stuff will kill you, right?
I'm not going to die. Well, I'm not sure he'll wake up.
It's the same..... I mean, why does Reinrich have such a dangerous potion?
I'm not going to tell you how to make it. I'm not going to tell you how to make it, I'm just going to say that this is one of the many things I've made it through.
I don't want to be taught and I don't want to know.
If I could, I'd even want to seal the memory of that potion so that I'd never have to remember it again.
'Oh, by the way, Leet thanked me for that. Thank you for the nice ring.
I don't remember this at all, but...
I got one of those. I got one of your best.
The one I glanced at was a brooch with a design that looked like a conifer leaf.
I mean, that was a beautiful piece of work that made me wonder if I really made it, and I appraised it.
"Coniferous brooch: Small increase in magic power, small increase in dexterity, small increase in mental acuity.
Three abilities! And it's all a small increase.
One million nol ... or maybe two million nol at the minimum line. If it works out, we could get 3 to 4 million knolls.
"A baboon. I'll just pay for the tuition. Now that you've shown your potential, I'll let you work with the drug without telling anyone.
What an old b*tc*...
She really is a d*mned old woman.
"So, I'd like to sell this item, but will Rainrich buy it?
Yes, of course. It's a small price to pay for an apprentice.
So, what percentage of the profit?
Don't be silly. You won't make any profit. It's purely for the sake of my lovely apprentice.
It's a lie!
It's a lie.
d*mn it! You old b*tc*!
Instead of being taken as a cue, it's as if he's been forced to throw five bodies onto his palm from the start.
You are literally standing on too many different stages.
"Well, but it's still 40 million knolls. I'll pay you that, don't worry.
With that, he takes out a large bag from his cuff and drops it in my hand.
"Wah, hey, it's heavy!
The bag containing 400 gold coins was quite heavy, as it should be.
But you wouldn't bother dropping them from a high place onto your still heavy arms.
Then we'll go. You guys are going to gather materials, right? Go gather some good ore, at best.
Yeah. We'd better get going too. Solte, what's wrong with you holding your face? It's bright red.
'Wah! It's nothing! Because it's nothing!
I'm curious about how Sorte is doing, but first I put the bag of gold coins into the seventh magical space.
The seventh reason is because there is some kind of money gathering going on, which is an occult reason.
"Then I'm off to see my master.
Okay, I'm off! You'll have to wait quietly!
See you later. Get it together.
The three of them left the room and the first demon was waiting in front of them.
''Can someone please ahhhh...''
Still exercising my heavy arms, I managed to get a meal.
