ASDP Chapter 17

Yesterday, my grandfather finally pulled me out, but Theo also said that he would help me with the observation, so I came to the clinic without hesitation. I’m not going to miss the chance to see the process of demonization healing. Especially because if I can’t see it this time, I don’t know when that chance will come next time.
When I came to the clinic with the expectation that I would definitely be kicked out, my grandfather let me in with a face that gave up.

“Mr. Theo, I look forward to working with you.”
“Me too.”
When I bowed my head politely, Theo also bowed on the bed.
“I’m going to ask my grandfather for help again, so can you take the clothes off your upper body first?”
I grab a binder with a simple drawing of the human body on a paper and hurry to put on the glasses. Theo also took the clothes off his upper body without being particularly shy.
Then I can see the red magic line on the surface of his body that I couldn’t see from the top of his clothes. The magic manufacturing organ near the heart still seems to be bloated, and it’s the same as when I first saw it.

“Hmm? What? Grandpa, I’m sorry. Let’s switch places.”
As soon as I saw it, I noticed the difference from the previous time and gave my grandfather the glasses.
“What happened this time?”
“Is it the magic you mentioned before? I can’t find the clog in the place where it was.”
I don’t think it’s a bad thing, but in other words, it’s back to normal. However, there is no shadow or shape at all, so I can’t tell if the previous one is wrong or if it’s still stuck at a level that I don’t notice.

“Let’s see. ……It’s certainly gone.”
“Mr. Theo, I’ll touch you a little. Grandpa. If there is actually a magic knot, where is it?”
“It’s like this at the base of the neck and shoulders, and this place on the ribs.”
I touch the place my grandfather told me, but there is no response, and it is no different from the skin elsewhere. By the way, if you touch the magical construction organ, you can see that it is a little hard and warm.
“Was it magic that was stuck? Hmm. Because it’s a medicine that excretes magical power from the body to the outside, but why is magical power clogged in the first place?”
“Move your hand.”
My grandfather told me in a quiet voice, and I let go of my hand in a hurry.
When I looked at Theo’s face in a hurry, he looked a little red and seemed to endure with his face turned away.

“I’m sorry. Was there any pain?”
“No, no. It’s okay. Because it was just tickling.”
“That’s fine. Um. If I really concentrate, I won’t be able to pay too much attention, so please say something clearly when you don’t like.”
“That’s enough, Amelia should stay outside.”
When I was tell Theo not to force himself, I was kicked out with a pushed by my grandfather. ……Do you hate me talking to Theo that much? Grandchild idiots are also troublesome. Theo is probably unconsciously popular in the royal capital, so he’s unlikely to deal with me, so wouldn’t he be convinced if I told him that it was harmless?

Because it’s earlier than the medical hours, there are no elderly people chatting in the waiting room today.
So I sit on the sofa and fill in what I just saw on the paper I brought.
“If this clogging disappears, it will gradually return to the size of the normal magical construction organ, and the problem is what caused the blockage after all. Is there any difference in the nature of magical power other than attribute and quantity?”
Each person’s magical power changes its attributes and amount. It has never been investigated whether there is a difference in if the magical power flows easily or difficultly. But if you take a medicine that excretes magical power and you can’t see the clogging, it means that it’s muddy and hard to flow, or it had some kind of crystal-like shape that was blocking the passage.

The question is how to check the magic that is not originally visible.
The medicine that cures demonization forces the magical construction organ to test and at the same time excretes the magical power in the body to the outside, and gradually transitions to a weak and less effective medicine of excretion over five days.
The maga is elaborate with mana. If this mana is [mutant mana], the magical power made of mutant mana becomes [mutant magic power], and it is not easily excreted from the body, but if it is forcibly discharged, the next magical power created becomes normal magical power and returns to its original state. What about this theory?
Or there is a theory that the clogging is [mutant mana] itself, and it has returned to its original state because it was excreted with magical power.

“No. Where should I look it up to get to the right answer? In the first place, is it a verification that there is a mutation in magical power or a difference in nature? But how should I look at the nature? Moreover, Theo and the others are already healing, so the next step is to catch a monster and check it.”
It’s strange to say it’s safe, but when it comes to monsters that don’t harm humans much, they are insect-based. Next, there are herbivores that become monsters, but it’s hard to catch them who are always strengthening their bodies. Moreover, the monster is big as a whole.
It’s also scary to bring such a monster into the village.
There is no guarantee that they will never run away, and there is no guarantee that the monster you bring will never turn others into monsters. Even if it is a well-trained animal or a human with a developed intelligence, if they become monsters, they are all beasts. Especially if it’s a wild animal.
If that happens, the experiment place will naturally have to be secured in the mountains by itself.
Research while ensuring my own safety … it seems to be quite painstaking.

“Ah. I don’t know if there is a mutant mana or not, but it seems worth investigating what that mountain looks like when it passes through the lens. Can you see Mana in the first place? I’ve never even looked into that.”
Even if you wear those glasses, the whole thing doesn’t look red, and it’s magic that you can see firmly. If you go to the mountain and actually see whether this invisible reason is because the mana in the air is thin. There is no doubt that the amount of mana is definitely higher in the mountains.
By the way, I have never seen a plant that returns to its original state reversibly if the maga is purified even though it becomes a monster. It’s because this lens is expensive and the latest, but there’s no reason not to use it.

“For the time being, it’s safer when the activation of maga has calmed down. The new moon should be over, so will it be okay tomorrow? It leaves a bad taste. If I don’t write it, I’ll forget it.”
I write what I am thinking on a blank sheet of paper in a hurry.
When I was silently raising my doubts and how to solve them, I was slapped on the shoulder and I looked up.

“Ah. What is it, old man?”
“It’s not old man. I tapped your shoulder because you didn’t react at all. ……It looks like you’re writing out a lot of things again.”
“Because if I don’t write it down, my head will become a mess. I can’t use it unless I separate it into what I can do right now.”
I’m really writing as I think, so if you ask me if I can actually do it, I don’t think so.

“For the time being, both of them are finished.”
“Eh. Did you see Alfie too?”
“Alfie is not in a state to confirm his will, so I saw him for the examination. Don’t try to see or touch his naked body without his consent. Just put up with Theo.”
“Yeesss”
“Don’t stretch it.”
“Yes”
My grandfather told me, and I reluctantly decided to give up. I don’t want to work questionably either. However, there is an individual difference between the trained Theo and Alfie who has not trained much…
“Amelia?”
“Yes. I got it.”
He sees through my inner feelings and I straighten my spine in a hurry.
I don’t want to hear nagging as much as possible.

“So how was the verification result? Was there a clog of the magic flow left?”
While entering the room, I asked my grandfather.
“Both of them were all gone. The process of healing has not been seen until now, so it’s quite interesting. It might be a good idea to summarize the cases of these two cases and tell the doctors in other villages to confirm them when a demonized patient comes out. The problem is that the glasses are expensive.”
“Ah. Is that a rare material? Hmm. I also want a lot of information about cases, so if I tell my father and I can get the materials, can you make glasses at a low price?”
Of course, I will pay the technical fee, but if you subtract the material, you can prepare the number to some extent.
Because I want information, so I think it would be good to sell it to doctors in other villages just for that technical fee. My grandfather also said that those glasses are very useful for treating monster-based wounds, so some people will want them if they can get them cheaply.

“For the time being, both of them are definitely getting better. Here. This is today’s medicine. Drink with confidence.”
Next to me, who was making a plan happily, my grandfather took out the ominous-colored medicine again, and Theo took a deep breath.
