The Saint's Magic Power Is Omnipotent (WN)

The book that was handed to me was a record of various herb cultivation methods. Likewise, the herb needed for the Master Potion that I was interested in was also recorded on here. The cultivation conditions for it were: the amount of water and light, temperature and the type of fertiliser needed. There was a word that I wasn"t familiar with in this section.

"…… Blessing?"

Blessing wasn"t a word I would see under plant cultivation conditions. I imaged someone praying in front of a herb field. Where the heck did this religion come from? At the same time, that image stuck a cord in me and my heart jumped. No way, it couldn"t be. I timidly looked at Corinnsan, who was standing next to me, and found her staring straight back at me.

"Do you understand what it means?"

"No…… I"m not sure."

This wasn"t a lie. I knew something about it, but I wasn"t sure if my a.s.sumptions were correct. In the first place, these cultivation methods should have been written by a 【Pharmacist】not a【Saint】. Therefore it was possible that it was something different from the blessing that I was imagining. Was what I thought, but I had a feeling that I was correct.

"I see, what a shame. Well, whatever. Even if we had the ingredients, we couldn"t make it anyways because our level isn"t high enough."

"You"re right."

"By the way, I"ve never asked you this before, have I? What level is your pharmacy skill?" Corinnsan said. She didn"t look like it was a shame. Her words cut off my thoughts that were going around in a circle. Corrinsan was right, even if the herbs were available, people couldn"t make the Master Potions if their skill wasn"t high enough. I opened up my status in order to answer her question.

It"s higher than before…… I thought it would be impossible to raise my level because it didn"t go up even when I made Advanced HP Potions. Did it go up because I made potions using the Advanced HP Potion recipe that Corinnsan taught me? If so, then I"m glad. It was still possible to raise it even if I don"t make the Master Potions.

"Level 32."

"What did you say?!"

I chuckled while answering and Corinna frowned at me. I took a step back because she was looking at me so strongly.

"What"s wrong?"

"Your level"s higher than I thought it would be."

"Really?"

"Yeah, it"s even higher than my level."

Eh? Really? I was surprised and Corinnsan looked shocked.

"So you"d reach that level if you made that many potions every day."

"Mhm…… I"m sorry." I couldn"t stand Corinnsan"s shocked expression and apologised. The pharmacists in the distillation room were all surprised when they saw how many potions I could make in a day, but Corinnsan didn"t say anything about it so I wasn"t worried. But I did make a lot. It wasn"t just the mercenaries who ordered potions from here, the knights did as well. Should I have held back?

"You can make the Master Potion if you"re at that level, but it"s a shame about the ingredients."

"I agree……"

Corinnsan put a hand to her chin and pondered. I glanced at her and thought about the Master HP Potion.

I wasn"t surprised that my pharmacy level was high enough to make Master Potions. I had expected this to happen. You could make higher potions every 10 levels, and I thought that I would be able to make it if my pharmacy level pa.s.sed level 30.

I could raise my level again if I had the ingredients to make the Master Potion. The problem was the ingredients. It was difficult to get the ingredients now and it couldn"t be prepared at once. The cultivation conditions couldn"t be met, so it was impossible to grow it. Hmm. Should I tell Corinnsan about that thing? I thought worriedly and then Corinnsan moved.

Corinnsan moved to the corner to a two-leaf door cabinet and opened it. Unexpectedly, there was a metal door inside of the cabinet. I thought that metal cabinets were unusual, but it appeared to be a safe. Corinnsan kept the key to the safe around her neck and she reached under her clothes to take it out.

She took a really old looking book out of the safe. This book was thinner than the books that contained the potion recipes and herb cultivation methods. What kind of book is it?

I stared at it and Corinnsan gave me the book. I opened the book gently. The bindings were firm, but the colour of the paper changed towards the end. I could tell how old this book was. I turned the pages and read it. It read like someone"s diary.

"Is this a diary?"

"It is. But it"s also a very precious doc.u.ment."

Doc.u.ment? It felt like a normal diary when I skimmed through it. What was she talking about?

"This is a really precious book, so only read it when you"re alone in this room."

"Only when I"m alone?"

"Yes. That book contains highly cla.s.sified information and it can"t be seen by others." She said and I wanted to ask her if it was alright for me to read this, but her answer would probably be the same as before. She urged me to read it with her eyes, so I looked at the book again. I placed the book on a table and sat on a chair so that I could read it carefully.

I understood who had written this diary after reading it for a while. The person who had written this book was the 【Pharmacist】. Daily events were also written in this, just like a normal diary. The cultivation process of trial and error was also written as part of her daily life.

"She even wrote something like this……" I stopped mid-sentence and Corinna, who was sitting next to me, nodded quietly. My guess is probably correct. The trial and error process which was not written in the cultivation method book was written in here, along with the【Pharmacist"s】feelings at that time. Her road to success wasn"t smooth and she seemed to have enjoyed the twists and turns she experienced along the way. However, she didn"t just write about medicinal herbs. She also wrote about her love for Klaussner and its citizens.

I found out that Klaussner didn"t have any special products to begin with from reading this diary. They mainly produced wheat, like most of the other fiefs in Slantania Kingdom. Then the wheat production was hurt badly. This didn"t just occur in Klaussner, this crop failure spread throughout Slantania Kingdom and many people starved to death.

The feudal lord"s daughter, who was also the 【Pharmacist】, was extremely distressed when she saw the people starve to death. Thus, she began to find ways to cultivate medicinal herbs, so that it could be used to pay tax in place of wheat. Her hobby was certainly influenced by this crop selection, and she became known as the 【Pharmacist】. I inferred from the diary that she started behaving the way she did for the sake of the people. She was happy that she could curb the people"s hunger every time she succeed in cultivating different medicinal herbs.

I turned the page and read that she wrote a lot about a certain herb. It seemed that cultivation of this herb wasn"t going well for her, and compared to the other herbs that she"d been cultivating so far, this one had been stumping her for a while. That herb was important to her, but she had no choice but to leave it aside for now and focus on cultivating other herbs.

I could also tell that she was frustrated. I skimmed the next entries because the contents remained the same and then I found an entry where she was overjoyed. She"d found the last cultivation condition. I found the condition when I read the entry before this one. It was blessing and something else. I found a description that couldn"t be overlooked.

"Golden magic……"

Ah, I knew it. I called out to Corinnsan in amazement.

"Do you know what this pa.s.sage means?"

Yup, absolutely.
