Chapter 186 Not Just Any Iron
CLANNNNGGGGG!
...Kyuuki's hair needle didn't pierce me.
'What!? Pharmacist-dono, are you okay!?"
"Yes, as you can see, I'm perfectly fine."
The needle didn't pierce my skin.
Instead, it broke upon hitting my body.
"What!? What's happening...? How are you unharmed after being hit by a needle that can pierce even castle walls!?"
From above, Mercury-san interjected with a retort.
"It's because I drank medicine!"
"Medicine...?"
"Yes! It's a special medicine I made. When you drink it, you become as hard as iron!"
From my pocket, I took out a single pill.
"I'll call it Iron Pill!"
"Becoming iron... I've never heard of such medicine... And even if you turn into iron, so what? I mean, the needles pierce even solid castle walls? Iron should easily penetrate through, right?"
"It's okay. I think it's... orichalcum, was it? That's what it becomes."
"WHATTTTTT!? ORICHALCUMMMMMMMM!?"
"Yes. In my village, we call it iron."
Mercury-san said as usual.
"Orichalc*m... That's a legendary mineral!"
"Huh, it's just regular iron, right?"
"Don't joke around at a time like THISSSSSSSSS!"
