Episode 6.6
'Okay then, let's get to work', Shira said that, asked Jericho to bring out four barrels and put the herbs inside those barrels.
"Now Jericho, you stay in the house. Lecan, you co over here."
Shira went to the storage room before going to her private room at the farthest end of the house. The four barrels are floating after her.
In a fairly small room lay a conspicuously big bed.
"Okay, now get to the back more. Make so space in front of the door."
The two huddled together as they moved next to the bed, then the bed suddenly floated away blocking the door.
A huge rectangular hole showed up on the ground after the bed had moved.
"We're getting down."
Shira stepped her foot on an empty space as she said that.
Having no choice, Lecan followed after her.
He's floating instead of falling.
Then they descended.
Shira must have casted spell. The huge pit is brightly lit.
They descended quite far down.
"We made it."
The surrounding area was suddenly filled with lights.
It was a huge basent. 50 steps wide, and around 70-80 steps long. In other word, this basent is as big as the whole house and the poisonous plant garden above the surface.
The 24 apparatuses giving off lights on the ceiling are probably magic tools. Each one of them is emitting a bright light.
"What are those shining things?"
"Oh they're magic lamps. They emit light when you supply them with mana. Still, I went all the trouble to show you this secret basent and got no reaction from you. That sure surprised instead."
"I knew that there was a huge basent beforehand."
"Ooh right, you can detect stuff with your ability."
"No. I already knew before detecting anything."
"Hee? How co?"
"That chimney is way too big for that fireplace. It's positioned oddly as well."
"Haha. I guess that's right. You've got quite so powers of observation there."
This huge basent feels more like so kind of laboratory than a workshop. There's lots of utensils of unknown purpose here and there.
"The air's so dusty here."
Shira shook her forefinger as she said that. Then the wind blows. The huge hole below the bed also functions as a ventilation it seems.
There's a hearth with a huge pot on it under the chimney. Shira poured water into the pot with magic.
"Water produced by of creation magic is pure water of magical origin, you see. I call it Pure Magic Water. Although a bit lavish it may be, boiling herbs in it will afford you the best dicine. By the way, if you want to make healing magic water, you cast Body type magic or Sacred type into the pure magic water and then mix in so herbs. Depending on the type of herbs mixed in, the kind of dicine it will turn out will differ as well, it could be for healing wounds, illness or restoring stamina. Though in actual practice, you'd want to say, put on disinfectant on wound or use specific redy intended for that particular illness to go along with them. Were a priest who can use the highest form of put it in undiluted form Pure Magic Water, the result would be a dicine capable of healing any wound no matter how fatal. It can only hold such a strong effect for one day though."
Afterward, Shira put herbs while casting magic in it.
Ordinarily, you put magic gems along with catalyst during this stage of magic potion production, but in reality, putting in herbs while repeatedly casting would result in a better effect instead, so Lecan was told.
Shira skilfully continued with the work while explaining the steps to handle herbs.
Lecan labored busily following Shira's instructions, but even while his body was moving about, he made careful observations on things like fire adjustnt, or the way to pour magic.
By dayti, it was a break ti, and Shira lifted Lecan up to the surface. She would watch over stuff below, she said.
Above ground, Lecan heated up tea and ate so light al he had put in .
Eventually Shira called for him, so he went down again. They brought another four barrel worth of herbs.
He had to rely on Shira to move the bed and went down the basent every ti. Indeed, he has great need to learn and fast.
His next work was mincing and mashing herbs. Lots of steam rose up from the pot. Shira announced that they were finished for the day when it was still unexpectedly early.
"Now then, we're putting out the hearth's fire for now. We're also done with other works for the ti being. aning it's a good ti as any to practice so magic."
Lecan learned that day. It wasn't going too well at first, but in the end he managed to roll an empty barrel around.
"Alright. Once you've learned this, the rest should co quick. You've got a stupid amount of mana and all, make use of it to practice a lot."
It was evening when he left Shira's house.
Lecan went back to his room at the inn and continued to cast .
The next day, he resud the herb making work. While concurrently practicing magic.
He got the pass with in three days, and four days with . Afterward, Lecan moved the bed out of the way and floated down the hole himself. Moving objects wasn't that hard, but moving his own body required a delicate handling, he felt like he would imdiately crash down the instant he lost focus.
The dicine making also began for real.
