Chapter 196 Evolution To The Medicine God
(Side: Leaf)
I worked with Dokuonna and restored Kyuuki to their original form.
The needles that were coming out of Kyuuki's whole body had disappeared.
In front of me, there was a beautiful dog with pure white fur...?
"A dog?"
'This is my true form. Thank you, Pharmacist-dono.'
Kyuuki-san bowed gracefully.
"You don't need to thank me. You recovered because you didn't give up on living."
A Pharmacist is not almighty.
They can heal injuries and illnesses.
But on the flip side, that's all they can do.
Even if injuries and illnesses are healed, ultimately, if the person doesn't want to live, there's nothing more that can be done.
"You endured the pain well."
'If I died here, I thought all the efforts of Pharmacist-dono would be in vain.'
"Is that so... I'm glad!"
Kyuuki approached me and nuzzled against me.
'Thank you, Pharmacist-dono.'
"No, no. Let's go back to everyone. Including Dokuonna."
Dokuonna really worked hard this time.
I was happy about her efforts, but what made me even happier was that she had the mindset of a Pharmacist.
"Uh, um... Oh, wait...? I can't move my body..."
Dokuonna slumped down.
Could it be... that Kyuuki's virus had been transmitted to her!?
I hurried to her side.
And then, I grabbed her hand with my left hand.
...That was when it happened.
Suddenly, a large amount of information flowed into my head from her body.
"Gah...!"
A sudden influx of information left me bewildered.
"W-What's wrong, Leaf?"
Dokuonna asked in a panic.
Kyuuki also approached, looking concerned.
"I-It's okay... Dokuonna, your dominant hand has a stress fracture. Maybe you pushed yourself too hard."
"Eh?"
"And you were on your period. Sorry for making you overexert yourself."
"W-What!? How did you know!?"
...I don't know why.
"I don't know why, but I understand. All the information about your body structure is flowing into my head."
This time, my right hand was glowing.
In my hand, the Divine Healer Staff had appeared without me realizing.
"Why is the Divine Healer Staff...?"
Various medicinal herbs were floating around the staff.
They were the herbs from the workshop.
They entered the tip of the staff on their own.
The staff was filled and produced medicine... could it be...
"Prescription!"
I used the Divine Healer Staff to administer the medicine I had just made to Dokuonna.
And when her body glowed...
"Eh? Oh! The fatigue in my body disappeared!"
She stood up with a start.
"Did you administer an Elixir too?"
"...No, it's different."
People generally think Elixirs can cure all injuries and illnesses.
But poison and medicine are 2 sides of the same coin.
Strong medicine can become poison in the body.
So, in reality, it's not good to consume Elixirs excessively, and if possible, it's better not to administer them.
...Huh?
I feel like I need to tell someone...
Oh well.
Anyway.
"Administer the appropriate medicine for the appropriate condition. That's what a Pharmacist should do, ideally."
That's when I realized.
I could instantly create and administer the most suitable medicine to cure her condition.
"This is... like my master..."
I'm sure he could do the same.
Then Dokuonna smiled and said,
"You've become one too."
"Become...?"
"A Medicine God!"
"!?"
T-That's...
To think I could stand alongside my master, who I thought was far ahead!
"Well done, Leaf."
"Yeah..."
Before I knew it, tears were streaming down my cheeks.
I'm crying tears of joy. I was able to catch up to the person I've always looked up to...
