I Thought About How To Handle The Herbs
“A restorative…that is quite interesting.”
“Yes. If you think of it as something that activates magic energy… It could have a lot of different uses.”
“But it wasn’t originally for magic energy…”
I hadn’t even been thinking about magic energy when making it.
I was only thinking about having the necessary nutrients distributed through the whole body.
Well, as long as it was good for you, then it was fine.
“So, now that we tested the restorative herb, what about the others?”
“Yes. This one has the nutrients that your body needs… Or at least, that’s why I made it. After all, the restorative herb will not be effective if there are no nutrients to begin with.”
“I see… So you can take in the nutrients with this herb, and the other herbs ensure it is properly distributed…?”
“Yes.”
And so I showed the other herbs to Sebastian and Ms. Helena.
Both of them inspected the herbs with great interest.
“Still, multiple herbs… Will these be put in a separate wine?”
“No, I was hoping to put all of the herbs in the same wine. One wine with nutrients and a restorative effect to make your body healthy.”
“All at once… It would be a wonderful wine indeed. However…”
“To add these on top of the other one…”
“Surely they will bring even more problems with taste and effect…”
I showed them three other new herbs.
If Weed Cultivation is to be believed, one was for protein, another for vitamins, and the last for iron.
But there was no way to analyze such things in this world, so I could not confirm if this was true.
And it would be difficult to actually feel the effects, unlike the restorative.
However, that wasn’t Ms. Helena and Sebastian’s main concern right now.
They were thinking about the effect on the wine’s taste and smell after mixing it with so many herbs…
The vitamin plant had a sour citrus smell. It seemed like it would definitely alter the taste of the wine.
And one of the best things about the wine was its sweetness… Though, perhaps some people would prefer a more sour taste.
“Mr. Takumi. Could you not combine all of these into one?”
“What do you mean?”
“Mix them so that it is a single medecine.”
Now that I thought about it, the book that I had borrowed from Sebastian had contained something about that.
By mixing them, you could enhance the potency or create a medicine with multiple effects.
But it also said that you had to be careful when preparing it, or you might make something that was useless if not poisonous…
When turning it into liquid and mixing them, you could even cause an explosion, as they contained magic energy.
Well, since we would just be combining herbs with each other, it would probably be fine.
“However…I do not know how…”
“Is it not written in the book you borrowed?”
“It is. But I doubt I will be able to do it…”
“As it will be your first time, it does not need to be perfect. You just need to practice.”
“…Yes, that’s true.”
“Mr. Takumi. While I make all kinds of dishes and serve them to everyone… It took me a lot of practice to get to this point, you know?”
“That’s true…”
While I was nervous about it, Sebastian was right. I realized that I just need to practice until I can do it well.
Ms. Helena always cooked delicious meals, but it was easy to imagine that this was the result of a lot of work and effort.
Thankfully, the herbs I had prepared this time were nutritious, but not particularly special. And so I doubted there would be much risk in combining them.
Well…it would also still be difficult to determine whether I had succeeded or failed.
“Now, why don’t you try doing it with Ms. Milina?”
“With Milina?”
“Yes. Since she is currently studying medicine with you. Surely she can be of assistance?”
“I suppose so. Yes. I will ask her then. If she agrees, we can start testing it.”
“Good. Thank you, Mr. Takumi.”
“But… how will I know if it worked?”
“I think that we should buy a magic device from Isabelle’s store.”
As Ms. Isabelle sold magic tools, perhaps she had something that could determine if it was mixed correctly?
“That restorative… Through it, we learned that nutrients are related to magic energy. And there are many different kinds of magic tools, so there may be one that allows you to detect the nutrients which are affected by magic energy…”
“I see… Yes, it is possible.”
“I will ask Isabelle. And if she has such a thing, we can buy it. Otherwise, we’ll have to think of something else. But first, you must prepare it.”
“Yes, I understand.”
If it is affected by magic energy, then it may be possible to detect it with magic tools. That was what Sebastian believed.
Even if they didn’t know much about nutrients, this world had plenty of things related to magic energy.
But as Sebastian said, I had to combine them first.
“Mr. Takumi. I think we better taste them before you do anything…”
“Ah, that’s right. The taste is important.”
“Hohoho. Indeed. After all, the taste might change after combining them.”
Ms. Helena’s words reminded me of how important that was.
In terms of nutrition, I doubted it would be much use like this…but Sebastian and Ms. Helena didn’t know that.
Besides, I was also curious about how it tasted.
…Though, I was pretty sure that it wouldn’t taste good.
