Chapter 330: Delivery of the miracle drug
Emilia, the daughter of Margrave Volton’s sworn friend Earl Rockford, had fallen ill with an incurable disease known as Magic Depletion Disorder.
Magic Depletion Disorder is a disease where the the body’s magic power, which is vital to maintaining life, is gradually lost.
Normal medicine and recovery magic are ineffective, and the only way to cure it is with the legendary miracle drug, Soma.
As such, in a last-ditch effort, Margrave Volton had earnestly requested us by way of a nominated quest to secure the ingredients for the Soma and its creation.
The first of the ingredients were materials related to the World Tree, he must have thought that we could somehow obtain it as we were acquainted with the Great Spirits.Vissit novelbin(.)com for new novels
As for the dragon heart, it could be found out through a bit of research that I sell dragon materials to the Adventurers Guild. Aside from this, Margrave Volton already knew all sorts of things, so it’s too late to hide anything.
Lastly the Hermit Peach, it was a story that was like catching hold of clouds that relied on literature, but he bet on that tiny possibility.
And Margrave Volton won that bet, so he too was lucky.
And now, there were 100 bottles of the completed miracle drug, Soma.
The ridiculous amount was inevitable. This was the result of calculating a good division of doses when I was making it according to the recipe. Thanks to that, I decided that majority of it would be stored in my Item Box.
As expected, a miracle drug that could cure any curse or incurable disease shouldn’t be distributed into the market.
As a cure-all, it pairs well with the Elixir, another miracle drug which can heal a lethal wound in an instant and restore large parts that had been lost.
I brought three doses of Soma and headed to Margrave Volton’s estate.As for why three, I had already confirmed the efficacy of the Soma using Appraisal, but I brought extra to ensure Emilia’s complete recovery. It should definitely be just one dose, but there might still be individual differences.
Xervus-san expressly came to meet me.
「Oooh! To think I would be able to see the legendary miracle drug, Soma......」
Margrave Volton’s expression changed from one of excitement from gazing at the Soma to a complicated one.
「Muu...... three bottles of the legendary miracle drug, huh.」
「To make doubly sure of Miss Emilia’s complete recovery, I prepared two reserves.」
Sure enough, Margrave Volton was racking his brain over how to handle the Soma should there be any that remained.
「Master, let’s think about that after Miss Emilia has recovered.」
「......you’re right. Iruma-dono, I am sorry to have to ask this, but could you accompany me to mansion of the Rockford household.
「I had the duty of producing the Soma, so that would be no issue, but will we go now?」
I had a vague feeling it would be like that, so I wasn’t surprised when Margrave Volton asked me to go with him, but if we’re leaving, then I have to send word to everyone.
「No matter how impatient we are, we can’t go today. I am still a Margrave that governs this land, after all. However, I do truly wish to hurry. What do you think about leaving tomorrow morning?」
「Understood. We will prepare for that.」
「Well then, Iruma-dono. Tomorrow morning, I await you in the eastern gate.」
Sophia and I were seen off by Xervus-san outside the gate, and we returned to the mansion in Margrave Volton’s carriage.
It was decided that the completion reward would be discussed once more after Emilia’s recovery had been confirmed.
