The Mage Will Master Magic Efficiently In His Second Life Chapter 103

Translator: AquaTide Editor/TLC: Nefarian

Were lead to leave the big parlor room, then Shirushu stops in front of a gorgeous door.

Its here

Inside of the room, stuffed animals and dolls are scattered around the room. Theres a child sleeping in the center of the bed. The child seems to have lost consciousness due to her high fever. Beside her is Davil who is accompanying her whilst holding her hand. He seems to be quite a doting parent.

Davil-san

Shirushu greets him. Davil looks at us with a grim face.

Although he can leave it to his butler, he chooses to take care of his daughter with dedication. He looks really tired.

Shirushu-dono? Do you need sothing?

This person is Zeph-san, he might know sothing about the disease and he might be able to understand sothing after he examines her

Introduced by Shirushu, I take a step forward, then Davil jumps to and grabs my shoulder.

Ohhh! Is that true!?

It hurts.

AhIm sorry.

I understand that youre worried.

Davil separates his hand from my shoulder and then I walk to his child. I sit down sideways from the bed and place my hands on her forehead. Then I touch her neck, chest, and stomach one by one in that order. Looking at the situation from behind, Shirushu looks worried.

(Her internal organs are swelling and theres strange noise as expected it is indeed Belzel disease)

Fortunately, its still in the initial stages, shell get better quickly after drinking dicine. Standing up, I report what Ive found to Davil.

I know the treatnt to this disease. Shell recover after taking so dicine.

Really?! Then the dicine is ?

It should be fine, it can be made by boiling Mil herb and drinking it. I think its growing inside Goliaths Forest. Ill pick it up tomorrow.

Ohhh !

Telling him how treatnt is possible, Davil grabs my hand and his eyes start to moisten up. He grabs my hand tightly with great strength.

Im telling you, it hurts!

Thank you very much Thanks you very much!

I want to complain about his iron grip but seeing Davil thank while crying, I was taken aback.

Calm down, you can thank later after shes completely cured Also Im just saying this but Ill be expecting a reward for this.

Yes! Of course!

The old man will give us money ? Can I eat a lot ?

Ain suddenly appears, her eyes are sparkling and then she cos closer to my face.

Oi, read the atmosphere.

Just get back for the mont! Ill let you eat later!

Yeah!

Ain cheerfully appears and gleefully disappears. I got a feeling that shes growing up in strange direction. Restricting her diet might be a mistake.

Umm The one from before is?

Dont mind her

Y-Yes

Because of Ain, the serious atmosphere is gone. Well, recently Im running out of money, its a nice ti to earn so extra cash. I was sent off by Davil who thanked many tis, and left the mansion behind.

The townscape is dyed in orange; Milly began to talk to .

Nevertheless you know a lot about the Beruz disease? I never heard anything about it

Its Belzel disease. Well its because East Continent didnt have much illness

Hmm Rather how did you know about that?

Its sothing I learned about in the past.

I think that explanation is unreasonable

In response to my excuse, Milly made a scornful look with her eyes.

How co the East Continent doesnt have much illness ?

Beast people is the source of infection for Belzel disease. Incubation rate is not that high though and the person whos infected usually imdiately dies before the ship crosses to the other continent. Thats why since there isnt many beast people in the East Continent the disease has remained undetected

Like I asked before, how co you know all of this?

Damn, I talk too much. Shirushu is walking side-by-side with us and hears our conversation, her face turns pale. I really made a slip of the tongue.

Is that So?

Well, sothing like that

Shirushu asks while scratching her head. Yeah, Since Shirushu takes care of the young beast people Im sure she wont talk about the disease in front of them. Furthermore, Shirushu has a strong sense of responsibility towards the beast children, thats why it seems that she received a big shock hearing all of that.

Well, dont worry about it. I know the treatnt; Ill quickly heal them

Shirushu looks worried.

Shes uneasy.

Dont tell she thought about looking for the Mil herb by herself.

Ill say it in advance, dont do sothing dangerous

Yes

She seems to be brooding about it.

It seems that she may really go overboard. It cant be help. I slap Shirushu butt whos looking downward and make *bashin* sound.

Hyahh!?

Shirushu lets out a cute voice while jumping, then turns toward .

Wha, what are you doing?! Zeph-san!

Its because you dont properly respond. Dont do anything reckless!

When I glared at Shirushu, she seems to falter and nods a little.

I understand

Shirushu answers with low voice while sending us off. After that we head back to the Inn. Along the way, Milly pinches my cheek and looks at with a disapproving gaze.

Zeph, lets stop with the sexual harassnt okay?

It cant be helped, I think that it was necessary.

Back to the Inn, Claude and Lydia is still lying in bed.

It seems this morning Lydia is putting a brave face and force herself to move, afterwards she imdiately crawls into her bed.

When I co inside the room, both of them turn their face toward us.

AhGood morning Zeph-kun, Milly-san

Im very hungry you know please buy sothing for us

Their face looks miserable. Particularly Claude, whos still gasping for breath. I wonder if shes alright.

Just in case we bought you sothing. Its already cold though

I took out a long bread from the bag, then I divide it by half and give it to both of them. Then they eat it quickly, and although they just eat, their face looks like they still want more.

Zeph-kun

I know, Ill quickly buy another one

Yayy~I! I love you Zeph-chi~

Lydia spread her hands and beckons to co closer, when I did she hugged really tightly. Although she cant really move, she still wants to co to her. Then from behind Claude pulls the hem of my clothes.

After Im released from Lydia, I decided to go to downtown along with Milly to buy als again. Lydia is trying to co along with us, but when I see her trying to get up from bed unsteadily, I decide that its impossible and stop her. Claude could not even get up from her bed, she has been shivering for a while, after which she collapsed on bed.

I leave the rest to you

WellDont push yourself Claude

Looking at them who cant move, I headed together with Milly toward the downtown area in the evening.

And then the next day, the thing I worried about really occurred.

Its bad! Onii-chan!

Morning, on the way back to the inn after my hunting session, a young beast person stopped . Hes the boy from Shirushu church, Rui. His expression is frantic and he grabs with both of his hands.

Shiru-ane is gone! Yesterday evening I see her going sowhere I thought that shes going to toilet but shes nowhere to be seen!

Calm down, for the ti being lets talk inside the Inn

I invite Rui whos flustered inside my room, I served him a lot of water but he drinks it in one gulp. After the boy calms down a little, Claude asked.

Is Shirushu-san missing.?

Yes In the evening I see her going sowhere, then in the morning her sll is completely gone nowhere in this town

Rui clasps his hands together into a fist and looks pained as he trembles. Just as I thought, its beco like this. Taking preventive asures is definitely better than being unprepared.

I have an idea where she might be.

Really!?

Looking from yesterday situation, it seems like shes looking for the Mil herb by herself.

For the ti being lets ask her

Ask her?

Yeah we can ask her directly.

When everyone looks at curiously, I show them a crystal ring. What I had is the thing that I wanted to give to Silverie. Yesterday, when I noticed that Shirushu was brooding, just as a precaution, I put a fragnt of this crystal in her pocket. I never thought that it will beco useful so soon. I put my hand near my ear, then I picture Shirushus face in my head, then I talk in my head.

(Shirushu? Can you hear , Shirushu)

(Oi! Shirushu!? Oi!)

An unpleasant idea crosses my mind. Dont tell

(Oi!!)

(Hiyaiiii !?)

Together with *kiin* noise, I hear Shirushu scream. Apparently her thought seems cloudy.

I wonder if shes sleeping.

(Ze Zeph-san!? Eh ? But youre not here)

(Right now, theres a crystal inside your pocket. Im talking to you with telepathy using that)

(Uh uh That)

It seems like she just got up and shes still confused. Ill ask a simple question.

(Calm down.Where are you now?)

(In Goliaths Forest)

After being silent for a while, Shirushu answers quietly. I didnt expect it but it seems that she was asleep inside a dungeon where monsters spawn. Certainly, theres so location where monster didnt spawn inside dungeon. But doing so is still an absurd thing.

(Shirushu, listen well. You are probably in a place where monsters dont spawn inside dungeon. Ill save you right now. Absolutely do not move away from that place)

(No but I cant trouble you any longer)

(Dont worry about it, after all Im planning to go there to pick Mil herb. its like killing two birds with one stone)

(But! It will be troubling to look for and also theres monsters here)

(Im used to defeating monsters and looking for missing person. So its fine for Shirushu to wait there)

(But, but I will be troubling you)

Letting out a sigh *fuu*, I take a deep breath.

Then,

Thats enough! Stupid!

Suddenly raising my voice, everyone in my surrounding jumps back, surprised.

Everyone, including Shirushu beca silent, then I speak slowly to Shirushu.

Humans, as long as they live, they will cause trouble to other people once or twice, its sothing that cant be helped. The important thing is not to worry about being a nuisance to others but rather how much we can help each other, right?

(Yes)

Ill give you a signal when I enter the forest Until that ti, wait there. Understand?

(Yes I understand)

This ti Shirushu answers gently and cut the telepathy, for now we can take a breather. Truly, what a stubborn person she is. Beside whos speaking with rough voice, Rui draw closer.

Oh man Onii-chan, to be able to persuade Shiru-ane that fast

Certainly, Shirushu is really stubborn

Hmm. Yea, yeah! Thats how she is! Shes so troubleso isnt she?

? Yeah

I entrust Shiru-ane to you! Onii-chan!

Leave it to

For so reason Rui seems to be really happy as he gave a side long glance, in any case I made preparations to leave. Milly also panics and begins to prepare.

I, I too will go!

Its been since the fight with the monster on the ship, be careful

I too will go awawa!?

Claude is trying to stand up, but she falls down while grabbing my back as her balance is crumbling, then both of us fall down. I hit my face hard against the floor. Its painful but, because sothing really soft is brushing against my back, my anger is shaved off.

I, Im so sorry Zeph-kun

Dont force yourself. Its because we overdid it, you wont be able to stand up for at least another two, or three days.

Mn, Thats how it is Clau-chan. We should obediently lie down for today

After saying that, Lydia helps Claude up as she was on top of my back. As expected of Lydia, compared to yesterday, where she wasnt even capable of moving she can already get up to this extent. Having said that shes still not back to her usual self.

Well then, today Ill be together with Milly

Un!

Milly answers cheerfully and we head out towards Goliath Forest in order to rescue Shirushu.
