「Eeeeeehhh! Th, that great potion… t was Alim-chan who “created” that?」
「As I have told you, that’s how it is…… I was also really surprised」
Lilo-san was startled. After I explained about them how Ruin-san and Lilo-san recovered so quickly, and also where I got the Great potions.
「Is Alim-chan not actually 12, but an 80 years old sage?」
「I’m not 80! Why did it have to jump by 70 years?」
Please don’t just make things up as you see fit.
「I’m just a 12 years old child, why would you assuming I’m already 70-80 years old, that is definitely not true!」
「It’s not impossible you know, with skill that prevent aging, or a rejuvenating skill, or maybe a long live tribe like elves and dwarfs」
Does this world have dwarves and elves? Seriously, fantasy. Even skills and everything.
「Are there really elves? 80 year old elves that look like in their 30’s」
「Are? I think there would be some」
「… …. By the way, Alim, are you still making those great potions?」
That’s right. I am still making more great potions. I’m making it in this flasks here.
20 bottles have already been made. Ah, don’t mind it, don’t mind it.
「Etto … …. Regarding this medicine, because it seems to be really valuable, I would like to make as much as I can, I’ll also give some as thanks for taking care of me.」
The moment Gerbera-san who busily working heard what I said
「You don’t have to worry about us! Seriously」
That’s what she said, Un… Then I’ll be keeping it for myself then.
Ah, that’s right. How about gave this potion in exchange for herbs and flasks?
By all means, I want medicinal herbs.
「Then, could you please prepare medicinal herbal plants and about 10 empty bottles! And those will be exchanged with these potions … … Will that .. be no good …?」
Let’s try by showing those all good puppy eyes.1
「Uuu… Is it really alright?」2
「Hai!… 10 bottles… Please have it…」
(Smile…)3
「…Haaah… I give up… 10 bottles is it… I really appreciate it… Thank you…. So how will you be carrying the herbs?」
I take that out my pouch.
「A.. anou…it’s this here」
「Ara… that cute pouch… Is there something wrong with it?」
I take out the pouch I was keeping in the desk in the room.
「Ara..Could it be that bag is that kind… That kind of magic bag? The ones where the price depends on how much you can store?」
I almost said that it can store at infinite amount. Infinite storage is a national treasure after all. It will definitely be a fuss again if they knew.
Let’s stop this, let’s just keep it a secret from now on. Let’s just say I don’t really know how much it can store.
「I…I don’t really know how much it can store…」
「That’s right, Alim-chan…. Her memories are still… Oh that’s right… The horse-drawn carriage will be returning to the kingdom after staying overnight in the village.
And also that carriage will come today… It will always go to the village to buy some special vegetables such as hippo-grass from this village and sell various tools,
even a merchant comes onboard, but only once every half a year, the merchant who comes is a merchant from the association. If those people, they might be able to appraise it.
「Those merchants have appraisal skill 」
「Wa… …. … Hai… … …」4
Errr… that… that’s bad… tsk…. Do I have no choice but to give up. Maybe I can bribe them with a potion.
「Have appraisal … ….」
「Fu fu fu…Well, I will continue the preparations for the feast! Look forward to it!」
After saying that, Gerbera-san went away.
「I have ten bottles! That should be enough. By the way Alim, why do you still make potions」
Orgo-san came over after I finished talking.
「The rest are for everyone!」
「Eh…Really? But is there anything you want more in return?」
「Maybe I could exchange it for something? Like you know… money or something」
「Anou, Alim, are you really ok with that?」
「Yah!」
「Gahahahahahahaha… Alim… You… I forgot that you were really someone weird who can even make great potion」
「I got it… Well there’s something I would like to teach you… It’s this 」
Then.. Ruin-san took a pouch from his pocket… That contains several rounded coins…
「Okay listen… This here is money they call it [Bell]. And there are six kind of coins.
from Copper to large copper coin → silver coin → large silver coin → gold coin → large gold coin. Copper is one bell, one large coin is 10 bells,
one silver coin is 100 bells, one big silver coin is 1000 bells, the big silver coin is 10,000 bells, the gold coin is 100 thousand bells, the big gold coin is 1 million bells. 」
If I’m not mistaken… 1 potion is worth 3 gold coins… A cheap house is worth 15 gold coins…
So 15 gold coins would be worth of 1 million yen!… Haaa… That was really surprising.
「Thank you… I really appreciate it… I got it…」
「Alim-chan… Were you really listening…」
「Yes, I can make such valuable things, I should be careful on who I deal with them?」
「Wow! Alim-chan! such a smart girl! Gyuuu!」
I was suddenly hugged by Lilo. Ah… Can’t breathe
