Will the Re-Summoned Hero Live as an Ordinary Person

24 Lesson 23



Karena tells me to get the material out on the table.

A tearful vial of dragons, a missing nail of basilisk, holy water in a vial, and a bunch of healing leaves.

"This should be enough."

"... I don\'t think we really have it all together, do we? And from the ingredients, it\'s a recipe that\'s no longer used these days."

"No longer used? Could it be the newest recipe to use dragon liver?

"Well, do you know that too? You have a lot of difficulty getting the liver, but the rest of the material can be made with just two holy water and basilisk nails."

Aotearoa looks surprised.

"The original request was to bring the liver. And if your liver\'s in trouble, wouldn\'t it be easier to make it out of tears? You just have more healing leaves in the ingredients... that tree should have been in a ton of elf country"

"The healing tree is the problem. It was about two or three hundred years ago, and the leaves of the healing tree were taken more and more because of the Stone Fever pandemic. Dragon tears are massive in one drop, and nails in small amounts in time, holy water can be made. But only leaves are natural."

"Did that happen... and you were extinct?"

Karena shakes her head to the side.

"No, I managed to spare the extinction, but it\'s diminished as close as it gets. I don\'t know... the Elves have come to limit the outflow to the outside world and the distribution has become extremely small. It\'s become too expensive to get, and even royalty can hardly get it."

Aotearoa nods with the expression that she was good at it.

"So another recipe was devised? It\'s more realistic to target the liver, or the leaves of a healing tree are pretty rare."

"Right. The number of copies used is controlled, and most of them are consumed domestically. I have something else to use besides stone fever. So, all you have to do to get out of the country is get a few pieces a month, I\'m in trouble."

"I don\'t know when I\'ll get it, it\'s worse to have a snowy leaf than to have a suspicious leaf, or a dragon liver that you can get if you knock it down..."

"... as far as I\'m concerned, so is having it, but I\'m also concerned that you don\'t know it\'s precious. Well, you don\'t want to be asked, so I won\'t."

"It would help if you did. So, what I have prepared is a recipe that is no longer used, but can you make it that way?

"You\'re so warm! I\'ve been alive for 500 years, so I used to make them too, even though they stopped using them."

Karena stretches her chest and says with a Doya face.

"That\'s comforting...... then, please hurry. I can\'t stay too long."

"Forget it, first use your medicine research to crush the leaves of the snow tree. I\'ll get my hands on something else."

Work will then continue while following Karena\'s instructions.

Then the work progresses, and in the evening the voice is raised almost at the same time as Elmia comes to see how the two are doing.

"" Done!!

Aotearoa will try to appraise the finished product. Confirm that it was labeled "Stone Fever Special Effect" and loosen your expression again.

"Thank you, now I can help Grandpa and his grandson."

"Hmm... I think you should have me following you. You said it was originally a request to bring liver, right? That might blame you for taking the pills and not doing what you asked for. Besides, they\'ll probably suspect it\'s really that drug."

"Well, I was worried about how to talk to you, too."

"As an alchemist, my name goes through there. I\'ve met my lord before."

"How bad from what, can you ask?

Karena nods loudly.

"And advice from me, you\'d better tell Elbas the truth. He\'s got a hard mouth too, and it\'s better not to hide it because it\'s about his precious grandson. I\'m sure the story will go smoothly."

"Okay, you\'re going to have to follow me. Take that advice as a sign of trust."

"All right, shall we go now? I\'m gonna get dressed, so you should get ready."

That said, Karena goes into the back room to get herself cleaned up.

Aotearoa also packs his medicine and clears the table.

When the two of them are ready, Karena speaks to Elmia at the entrance to the store.

"It\'s good to be ready, then I\'ll go. Elmia, I\'m sorry, but leave a message. I\'m going to the lord\'s hall."

"Yeah, I get it. Be careful and come."

Elmia tells Karena so, she meets Ethereum and sends him out.

When I went outside, the sun was gradually darkening around the shade.

The Lords\' Hall leaves the city, a little to the west.

Karena\'s shop is also located west of the city, so I decided to keep walking towards it.

In front of the lord\'s hall

The Lords\' Hall is made close to the castle of what is called the Hall.

Aeta asks the guard who was in front of the gate of the hall to take over.

"I\'m sorry, I want the lord to follow me. You\'ll find out if you tell me it\'s Sota, the adventurer you asked for."

"I\'m the city\'s alchemist Karenarien, you know that. I brought Sota with me today. I need you to get to Elbus quickly."

The guard had heard in advance about Aotearoa and was said to be likely to come soon.

Karena was also famous in the city and gained tremendous trust in the formulation of medicines, so the guards, without a strong sense of vigilance, turn to the lord for a report.

"Okay, I\'ll ask you inside, just a moment."

We can\'t leave this place empty for both of us, so the other waits straight in front of the gate.

The guard returns in no time.

"I got confirmation, they told me to drop you off in the reception room, so please go inside."

Ethereum and Karena go inside as guided by the guards.

The maid who waited there takes over and leads them to the reception room.

"Welcome, Your Lordship awaits you both in the reception room, so I can guide you"

When I say that, I bow down and give him a disgusting smile.

"Oh, please"

Upon entering the reception room, Lord Elbus was sitting on the couch in the back across a large table, behind which stood also the knight Dan, who had followed Elbus during this time.

Elbus stood up and opened his hands to welcome the two.

"Hey, you\'ve come a lot. I need you both to call me there."

They were prompted to sit on the couch across the street, and the two sat down there.

"I didn\'t expect you to come with me until Karena, but I was going to ask Karena to prepare the medicine, so I\'m glad the hassle went away... So, Lord Sota, did you get the requested product?

"That\'s..."
