“Even if ya say that Missy, making a drug ain’t so easy, ya know.”
“I know.”
rc agreed with Svemir’s sound reasoning.
It would be challenging to develop a cure for an unknown disease.
Despite Rosemary’s training, all of the drugs that rc had created up to this point all had defined uses and preparation instructions. Nothing she had ever done before could compare to what she was about to do.
“Thankfully, I won’t have to start from scratch. Certainly, it will be challenging. However, there are dications that Dr. Bazar has previously created. Even while they haven’t been able to fully cure the disease, they have demonstrated positive results that will help figure out how to create the ideal drug. Don’t you think so, Dr. Bazar?”
“You could say that. However, it will probably take so ti. And you’ll all fall ill within that period. I still think you should leave as soon as possible.”
Bazar said in response to rc’s question.
“It’s too late for that doc.”
Foldia replied with a slight grin.
“We’ve already entered the village. So you might as well consider us sick. Do you really think kicking out right now would be the best choice?”
“That’s…”
Bazar was rendered speechless by Foldia’s words. In response, Foldia’s smile only grew bigger.
Don’t tell he planned this from the start…
rc thought while looking at Foldia, who discreetly winked at her.
However, rc was also aware that Foldia wasn’t so reckless as to drag in Edin and Svemir over sothing like this. She was confident that there had to be another reason for his actions.
“Fine… However, I will not take any responsibility if you get sick. Furthermore, I am powerless to cure you because Miss rc’s Heal is the only treatnt available for the disease at this ti. Do you understand this?”
“Of course,” Foldia replied
“Sure thing! We ca cause we wanted to. We are already in da sa boat.” Svemir also agreed.
“I understand Edin’s worry about his family, but Mr. Svemir, why did you co? You should know the saying curiosity killed the cat. But since you’re already here, I might as well make use of your energy. After all, it’s as you said. We’re all in the sa boat. We won’t be able to leave the village until we perfect this cure.” rc said.
In truth, rc could easily cure both of them with Heal and allow them to leave the village.
But even if the offer were made at this ti, neither of them would probably take it. Additionally, rc didn’t feel like bringing it up.
“With that out of the way, Dr. Bazar, could you give a detailed explanation of the Emsnan disease? As well as the components, thods, and results of each and every drug you have thus far created?”
“You do understand you’re asking an Alchemist to reveal details about drugs he made himself, don’t you? But I suppose being fussy at this ti would be inappropriate…”
Bazar spoke reluctantly before continuing,
“I guess I have no choice. Everyone, follow after . I’ll show you to my lab.”
The group followed Bazar all the way to his lab, leaving Edin behind since he wouldn’t leave his wife’s bedside.
They soon ca to a house that was constructed outside the village. This house was apparently given to Bazar to use and conduct research in.
From this ho, Bazar conducted research on the Emsnan Disease and searched for a treatnt.
“Even though there haven’t been any casualties yet, if the Emsnan Disease worsens, it won’t be long before there are…” said Bazar.
After hearing him out completely, rc started to explore Bazar’s laboratory, which was filled with various chemicals and miscellaneous items.
She had learned from Bazar’s description that the disease had a variety of symptoms and that, despite the contamination path being uncertain, it appeared to be spread from person to person.
“Based on what I’ve experienced I believe it spreads through the air via coughs, sneezes, etc.”
“Do we truly not know the primary source of infection, assuming it is as you claim? I can’t imagine that a disease like this just appeared overnight.”
“As I already stated, I have yet to discover it…” Bazar said, biting down on his lower lip.
He was probably ashad of himself for failing to locate the source of the disease despite spending so much ti researching it.
I guess I can’t bla him. By the ti he ca here the disease had already spread…
“I’ve got the gist. If you’re okay with it, I’d like to look at the drugs you’ve made, Dr. Bazar.”
“You can find them on that shelf.” Bazar said as he pointed to a shelf.
A number of containers were tucked away behind the shelf’s glass doors. Each container featured a label that listed the ingredients and the thod of preparation.
Without hesitation, rc started to read the labels. The ingredients in each dicine were essentially the sa, as she had anticipated given that they were all intended to treat the sa disease. Every dicine contained a few universal ingredients, but the other compounds appeared to have been selected through a lengthy process of trial and error.
“Hm?”
While rc looked through the drugs a thought ca up in her head. When Bazar noticed this change in her behavior, he imdiately enquired, glancing at what rc was holding.
“Is sothing wrong?”
“No, it’s nothing…”
rc replied, shaking her head and dismissing whatever reservations she could have had. She then placed the container on the shelf and moved away from it. Afterwards, she looked at Bazar and spoke.
“I think I have a good understanding of the Emsnan Disease now. Next, could you please allow to see the patients who have been placed in quarantine after receiving the vaccine so that I may assess their conditions?”
