Chapter 122: Announcent of the results part 4: Item・dicine
The Queen, who appeared again on screen, was sitting down on the throne with a smile, as if she was having fun.
On the other hand, the two n standing close to her looked very tired, as if they had gone through a lot of hardships even though they had caught the Queen.
Maybe it was so that the Queen wouldn’t escape again, this ti, there were a number of court ladies standing behind them.
The number of people around the throne had increased in one go.
『Visitors, sorry for the wait. We’ll continue with the announcents.』(Queen)
The Queen snapped her fingers in a good mood, and this ti, nurous bottles with liquids inside appeared on top of a table.
This is easy to understand, it’s ti for the dicine category.
From Migratory Bird, Riizu submitted a certain poison.
「However, I can’t tell which one is whose at all…is the number of them the only special thing about this category?」(Tobi)
「Most of them will be either green, blue or purple liquids after all. Unlike the other categories, it would be troubleso if they suddenly took out all the items in the top 100.」(Hind)
『Umu, is there even any aning in introducing the items in this category all at the sa ti? I don’t know either.』(Queen)
“Then just abbreviate it”, though there’s no way she would be able to feel the cold gazes of players that thought that.
After clearing her throat, the Queen proceeded to announce the item in 10th place.
『The item in 10th place in the dicine category…its na is, Wet Compress! The Exhibitor is Philia!』(Queen)
「Puh!?」(Hind)
「Uwah, Hind-dono, that’s dirty!」(Tobi)
Suddenly hearing that na, I spat out the herbal tea I had inside my mouth.
A large amount of the tea had fallen on Riizu’s face, who was sitting next to .
「Aaah, sorry! If I rember correctly, I should have a sanitary cloth inside my inventory…」(Hind)
「…Fufu, fufufufufu…」(Riizu)
Seeing Riizu suddenly start laughing while being all wet, apart from , everyone else stood up from their seats and started backing off.
Why is this girl laughing while looking absentminded…
Anyway, there’s no doubt that this is my fault so I’ll wipe off the tea from her.
「Don’t mind it, Hind-san. I’m hap-…I’m fine.」(Riizu)
「I-Is that so? But, I’m sorry. How about going to the river and washing off your fa-」(Hind)
「I don’t want to.」(Riizu)
She refused before I even finished talking.
I believe it would feel gross if she just wiped it off though…
Even if they are avatars, I believe she would feel better if she washed it off with water.
From the mbers that had stood up, Yumir was the first one to return to her seat.
「Even I would be put off by that, that expression right now…what wrong with your brain?」(Yumir)
「I’m fine if Yumir-san doesn’t understand it.」(Riizu)
「C-Calm down, you two. Hind-kun, I understand that you were surprised, but be careful OK?」(Selene)
「Ah, yeah. I’m very sorry…I’ll be careful. Sorry, everyone.」(Hind)
Within that delicate atmosphere, just as the other mbers returned to their seats, an email arrived.
It seems like Yumir received it too, we exchanged looks and she started to operate her nu window.
I also opened mine, it seems like the sender was Philia-chan.
Sender: Philia
Subject: Regarding the item contest.
Body: Dad told to try submitting it so I submitted the wet compress I made with Hind and Yumir.
It was thanks to both of you that I was able to enter the top 10, thank you.
As thanks, I’ll make lots of wet compresses and send them to you.
Once we let everyone else know that we had received such an email, Lycoris-chan voiced her admiration.
「Really? If I rember correctly, Philia-chan stayed over here while we couldn’t log in, right?」(Lycoris)
「That’s right. She’s with Albert now, it seems like they are going here and there like always, while doing rcenary work.」(Hind)
「Since the effects of the wet compress are unusual, I can accept that it is placed high. I did help a little bit with it too, I feel a bit better now even if my Adenium didn’t make it!」(Yumir)
「It was a joint work between us after all. It’s probably because Philia-chan thought the sa that she sent this email.」(Hind)
We left everything regarding whether Philia-chan wanted to reveal the formula to make the wet compresses or not all up to her, so we didn’t have anything to say in the matter. She’s free to do whatever she wants.
I replied back with a congratulatory ssage and closed my window.
「If I’m not wrong, they gradually recover HP right? When I heard about them, I was quite surprised.」(Tobi)
「Though you did look just as surprised when you heard about it this ti.」
「Siesta-dono retorted to sothing I said!?」(Tobi)
「You, why do you look slightly happy…」(Hind)
「No, I was just relieved because it’s not like she just ignores .」(Tobi)
「Such groundless accusations…I wouldn’t do sothing like that. In Tobi-senpai’s case, if you just stopped looking so persistently at my chest, I wouldn’t have any other problems with you.」(Siesta)
「Uguh! …I-I apologize…d-degozaru…」(Tobi)
While they were having such a conversation, inside the screen, THe Queen personally stuck a replica of the wet compress on the lower back of the old man, Arbol.
Bitan! Such a sound accompanied the action, it was quite the rough way to do it.
Due to that, the old man grimaced and let out a 「Ofuh」, shortly after, his expression relaxed.
Seems like the wet compress started to work.
『The fact that it slls a bit bothers …but this is good. Right, Jiiya?』(Queen)
『Yes, this Arbol guarantees it. It lightens the pain that cos with age…uumu…fuu…』(Arbol)
With this sequence of events, Philia-chan’s item, the wet compress, placed in 10th place.
Following that, 9th to 6th place was full of orthodox dicines.
As a result of compounding being crafting with a high degree of difficulty alongside blacksmithing, the only thing that made the products lined up there different, was purely their effectiveness.
That makes think that the one in 6th place was just a dium grade potion that simply had a high effect.
With that being said, until now, you could just say that it felt kind of plain.
Even the fact that they went as far as to use the wet compress was quite plain.
Then it was finally ti for 5th place but…the hand of the Queen, who had been smoothly introducing each item suddenly stopped.
Noticing sothing, the Queen held a certain green dicine in her hand and signaled Miles with her eyes.
Miles gave a bow and then left, then he imdiately returned with a middle aged fat man alongside him.
What are they going to do…?
『It’s been a while, Barow.』(Queen)
『I-It’s been a while your Majesty! It seems like you are in the middle of so exhibition, why did you call for during such a ti?』(Barow)
『Nothing much, I thought I would have you help with announcing the results of the visitors’ event.
…This is dicine made by the visitors. It’s quite effective, you know? Try drinking it.』(Queen)
『B-But your Majesty.』(Barow)
『Drink it.』(Queen)
Being left with no other choice, the middle aged man cald himself down and looked around.
From his looks, he seed like a noble, he seed to hold a big position at that…
「Hey, Riizu. I have a really bad feeling about this.」(Hind)
「I was hoping that the Queen would accidentally drink that one. So she’s going to use it like this…tsk.」(Riizu)
「Eh? The potion the Queen is holding, that’s sothing you both made?」(Selene)
「You’ll understand when you see it, Selene-san…」(Hind)
It’s sothing only us, who had made it, would understand. It was different from what its color suggested.
Hardening his resolve, the man called Barow closed his eyes and drank it all in one go…then he dropped the bottle and fell to his knees in that spot.
The bottle was destroyed as it fell to the ground and apart from Riizu and I, the other mbers froze in place.
So it really turned out like this…
『Visitors, it’s rather embarrassing but…this man is soone from our country, and he was a mber of the rebellion. He’s not dead, so there’s no need for you to worry. Well then…』(Queen)
Miles raised up Barow with so help from Arbol.
His whole body was numb, Barow was completely unable to move…save from the neck upwards.
It was that type of special anaesthetic.
『How are you feeling? Barow.』(Queen)
『Hiii! Majesty, your Majesty! Have rcyyyyyyy!』(Barow)
『Fumu, it has quite the impressive effectiveness. On top of being able to talk like this, it’s nice how it’s camouflaged as dicine. I can make use of this, so he can’t bite his own tongue, we should take out all his tee-』(Queen)
Just as the Queen was saying those words, the image suddenly cut off.
Then, a system ssage appeared alongside the black screen.
『Due to the possibility of the NPC Patra doing inappropriate actions, we’ll interrupt the footage for a little bit. We apologize for the inconvenience but please, wait for a mont.』
I wrapped my head with my hands, Riizu sighed because her plan had failed and the other mbers stood there with their mouths wide open.
Being the only one that completely understood the situation, Siesta-chan wrapped her arms around her abdon and started laughing.
