I drank too much. Had a hangover when I woke up. I try using [Heal (small)]. Not this, with this it won’t be cured.
What was it said? To erase the toxins inside the body? To make the remaining alcohol inside my body fly away. I surround the interior of my body with Magic Power and cast [Heal]. Yea, the pain disappeared.
Finally my head felt refreshed. I take out water from Items and drink it. I think of today’s schedule. First I go to the medical center and practice. Once finished I go to the trade guild to sell the huge wild boar. Get brand new armor with the money from the sale. It’ll be quite busy. As for the investigation team in two days, they’re making preparations. I couldn’t think I’d be this busy while I lived in Japan. I wonder what happened in the sequel to that manga? I haven’t bought it for 2 weeks. Also it’s halfway into that anime. I want to go online too. I want to post in that anonymous board…. Ahhh, no good. I got depressed thinking about that. Stop, stop. Let’s go meet Angela.
Arriving at the medical center there was a crowd present. What could have happened? I enter through the back entrance and Angela and the others were waiting.
“You’re late, Masaru!”
“Outside, there are a lot of people, did something happen?”
“That, you see? We specially gathered some practice partners just for Masaru’s sake. We want you to use your healing magic to your heart’s content.”
Once again I assess the situation. The waiting room is already filled with people, so it’s followed by a queue outside.
“Yesterday our children did some advertising for us, you know? When they said it was free on a first-come-first-served until your Magic Power is all exhausted, everyone said we’ll go, we’ll go.”
“I was really surprised!. Still this is too much, right? Should we send some away?”
“No, I’ll do it. Please wait a little moment. I need to prepare myself…”
I open the Skills List. First I take MP Consumption Reduction. Each level is 10%, I spend 7 Skills points to raise it to level 2. MP Recovery Up Level 1 is 50%, it increases to 100% at Level 2. This takes 7 skill points and I have 6 points remaining.
What? Without me noticing Healing Magic rose to Level 2? When did it?… For now I raise it to level 3. I have 3 points left and put them in MP Consumption Reduction after all. With this I used up all skill points.
[MP Consumption Reduction Level 3]
30% decrease in MP consumption
[MP Recovery Up Level 2]
100% increase in MP Recovery.
[Healing Magic Level 3]
① Heal (Small) ② Heal, Detoxification ③ Regeneration, Cure Disease
It’s total war! I won’t hold back.
“I’m ready. Please, proceed in order.”
The first to enter was a wrinkled grandma with a bent lower back.
“You know, my lower back aches. It’s the first thing every morning. If you could simply fix it, I’ll be thankful, really thankful.”
How do I treat it?… It’s not a disease, isn’t it just the aging process?
When you don’t know, first is casting [Heal] followed by [Detoxification] and [Cure Disease] too.
“Ohhhhhh, my back! My back has been healed! Thank you, thank you.”
She straightened her back and left right away. I drink the tea that Angela served.
“Is it alright like that?”
“Why not? She was really pleased.”
The opening old people, seems were accompanying each other. I hear they came together while it was still dark to get ahead of the queue.
I check my MP. I spent 7 MP just now, but it appears 2 MP have already been recovered. From calculations, I reckon I recover 1 MP every 2 minutes, however is that the effect from the tea? It’s faster than I thought. The next ones to enter are old people too. In a similar way I cast [Heal], [Detoxification] and [Cure Disease] and saying ‘My body feels so light!’ they leave pleased. Steadily people enter. 230 MP Remaining. It’s decreasing faster than I thought.
Angela serves me tea. Trying to drink it I notice. Somewhat it’s really thick.
“What is this?”
“Concentrated Magi Tea (Magic Recovery Tea). Come on, drink it in one go!”
I make up my mind and drink it. Apart from being thick, it is bitter. It’s really bad tasting. Hurriedly I wash down the tea.
“It’s incredibly bad…”
“But it’s really effective, isn’t it? By all means, time is the ultimate weapon”
“What about MP potions?”
“Those are expensive, you know?… Hey, the next patient is waiting.”
The number of old people doesn’t decrease. I clear my mind and cast Healing Magic. I drink concentrated magi tea.
“Eh? The next one?”
The wave of patients stopped. There was nobody when I peeked into the waiting room. Did it end? No, it shouldn’t be.
“Somewhat the number of people steadily increased, see. It couldn’t be helped that they started overflowing into the street, thus they were moved into the temple. Because the hall there is more spacious.”
I went to look and the temple was flooding with people. In the hall’s innermost part. In front of the huge statue they setup some desks and tables. It’s completely visible to everyone. You want me to give medical treatment there? I started to feel dizzy.
“It’s a bit unreasonable. There’s so many people…”
“Let’s see. Shall we put a partitioning screen?”
The nun mentioning such arrangement went somewhere.
“I dislike standing out! I think I feel like vomiting!”
“Ah, wait a minute. I know something suitable.”
‘I’ll go fetch it!’ saying that, Angela too went somewhere. I’m shaking in one corner of the temple’s hall.
Suddenly the Menu opens.
[Emergency Quest: Give medical treatment with all you’ve got!]
As long as you have strength left provide medical treatment! You’re not allowed to withdraw. Reward is 10 skill points.
Do you accept the Quest? YES/NO
The nun arrived and was putting the setup. Angela returned too.
“Hey, here.”
A cap, a mask and a loose white robe. I was given those to wear from Angela.
“Uh-huh, the cap and robe are the priest’s, but it does suit you, doesn’t it? If you put on the mask nobody inside will know who you are. Look, seems the setup over there is finished.”
The Quest was flashing. I chose NO. Doing it as long as I have strength left is impossible, impossible!
I was reluctantly dragged behind the partition screen by the nun and Angela like someone that has strayed from the right path. Ahhhh, Angela’s breasts are touching me! I’m a little bit happy!
“Well then, we’ll let people in soon, okay? Good luck.”
