Chapter 158 -- Sui's Special Elixir (Degraded Version)
Once we got out of earshot of the others back in the clearing I stopped .
"Sui, can you make something for me please?"
“Whaaaat?-" Sui inquired .
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"It's this . . . " I gulped, then took two items from my Item Box . One was a bottle of blood from the Earth Dragon, the other was the glass jar that held the half of the Earth Dragon's liver that I hadn't sold to the Guild . Elland-san had told me that Dragon's blood and Dragon's liver were a powerful panacea, able to prevent disease . Maybe, if Sui could combine them she could make a new sort of medicinal potion to treat serious diseases . Of course it wouldn't be Elixir, I didn't know how to make that and anyway I probably didn't have all the ingredients but a powerful recovery medicine might be possible .
"This is the blood and liver of the Earth Dragon . " I explained to Sui-chan . "They seem to be medicines that treat various diseases and injuries . I want Sui to make a medicine with both of them to cure a serious sickness . Can you do it?"
Sui-chan jiggled for a bit, obviously thinking hard . "Well, I'm not sure if I can do it, but Sui will try-"
"Thank you, Sui . Don't worry if you can't manage it . " I took a deep breath . "Well then, let's get started shall we?"
"Unh-"
I handed Sui the bottle containing about a litre of the Earth Dragon's blood . I then opened the glass jar and cut a piece of liver, about a quarter of what remained and handed that to Sui too . She slowly ingested them, making "Ummm" noises telepathically .
I sat down beside Sui, observing her carefully . Was it possible the Dragon blood and liver were too powerful for her to cope with? Could they hurt her, was this a bad idea? But she could handle magical materials like Mithril easily, surely . . . I clamped down on my imagination and waited as patiently as I could . After about 5 minutes, Sui suddenly spoke . "I was able to do it-"
I grabbed an empty bottle from my Item Box and held it out to Sui .
“Well, can you put it in here?”
"Yes, I understand-" A translucent reddish-purple liquid gurgled into the bottle from the tip of Sui's tentacle .
"Yeah, that's fine, Sui . The bottle is just about full . " I said as the liquid reached the neck of the bottle .
“Aruji, there’s about two more-” Sui said . Still more to come? I quickly got two more empty bottles from my Item Box and held them out one after the other as Sui filled them with the mysterious liquid . Finally I had three bottles of translucent reddish-purple liquid, corked and safe . Now to Appraise them . [ Sui's Special Elixir (degraded version) ]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA lesser version of Elixir, unable to extend life . Effective cure for all diseases .
"Cough, cough, splutter!" I nearly dropped the bottle I had been Appraising . It really was Elixir?
"Aruji, are you alright-?" Sui-chan asked worriedly, tugging at my trouser leg .
“Cough cough…" I took a deep breath . "Yes, I'm okay . ” I said, reaching down to pat her reassuringly .
…Elixir, Sui-chan really did it . She's truly amazing . Okay, it's a degraded version, not the true Elixir but my Appraisal said it's a cure for all diseases . 'A lesser version of Elixir, unable to extend life' -- did that mean that the true Elixir would extend someone's lifespan or even grant them immortality? Unbelievable . I never thought Sui-chan could make Elixir with the Dragon blood and liver but even this lesser version should be able to cure any disease, and that's what I wanted to start with so it's a success . Now Darryl and Eris's mother will be fine . I just had to find some way to get it to her . I decided in addition that making an easy-to-digest dish for an invalid would be good, so I'd make some rice porridge with eggs .
"Sui, can you wait for a moment? I'm making something to eat for Darryl and Eris’s mother . ”
"Yes, that's okay-"
Being well away from the clearing it was safe for me to open Net Super and buy eggs . I figured the small boost in status eating other-world food granted would help the kids' mother as well . There were seasonings to hand, some cooked rice too, yosh, that would be fine . I added water to the cooked rice in the pot and brought it to a boil on the Black Magic Cooking Stove . I added soup stock and soy sauce then I broke a couple of eggs into the pot and beat them into the mixture while turning down the heat . I tasted it and thinking it was a bit lacking I added more soy sauce and some salt . It was maybe a bit thicker than real rice porridge but I figured it would be OK so I left it like that .
The pot was an old one, not from the Net Super so I could just give it to Darryl as it was . He had said he had an Item Box and even if it didn't work like mine to keep things hot the rice porridge was a simple dish to re-heat . I shut off my Black Magic Cooking Stove, put everything away and we headed back to where everyone was waiting for us .
