My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World - Chapter 265
Chapter 265
Why The Count Wasn’t Sick
“Uhh…Mr. Hannes…the chief of Range village, said that the count was specific about the wine that was sent.”
“Really? In what way?”
“He wanted the aged wine that was in the back of the storage house… And Mr. Hannes was instructed to place the magic tool…the glass sphere, near the entrance.”
“Hmm, I see. So while it spread near the entrance, it didn’t reach the back. So that wine is all safe?”
“Yes. Leo checked them. All of the wine that was drinkable was the aged wine in the back.”
“So Barsler was able to drink the safe wine…”
“Father was always drinking wine. I didn’t realize he had acquired it like that…”
“You didn’t know, Ms. Anne?”
“While I have made some suggestions, it was his decision when it came to what he would use as a medium. I would never be that specific.”
“…I see…”
It was Barsler who acted, and Anne who advised.
But in the end, she did not know how he would do things.
Even if she was the heir, she was not that knowledgeable about what things were being made in villages in other territories.
“During my conversation with Mr. Hannes, we agreed that he secured wine for himself safely by specifying where the sphere was to be set.”
“Indeed. And then he had the village attacked. He was surely going to take the sphere and the wine at the same time. Besides, I’m sure he has tools to find out if the wine is infected as well.”
Considering the number of wagons that had brought the orcs, Mr. Ekenhart was probably correct.
Because I had temporarily blinded them, and because the orcs had thrashed around wildly, most of the wagons were too damaged to use.
However, if that had not happened…then they would be able to use them to carry the wine back.
“Well, since my father went through all that trouble for the wine… I am looking forward to drinking it!”
“…Do you really think you’re going to be drinking it?”
“What? What do you mean, Ms. Claire?”
“Isn’t it obvious? It became dangerous because of your suggestion. It would hardly be proper for you to…”
“This is an outrage! Ms. Claire!”
“Well, calm down, Claire. Mr. Takumi purchased the wine. And he is also going through the trouble of making it drinkable. So it is his decision.”
“Father… That may be, but… Mr. Takumi…”
“Uhh…”
Ms. Claire did not want Ms. Anne to drink the wine.
Indeed, as Mr. Ekenhart said, I had bought it, and made the Ramogi. So I suppose it was my decision to make.
As for me, since they were storing the wine, and Ms. Helena was the one processing it, I didn’t mind if they did what they wanted with it.
There was so much. Whether it was juice or wine, they should just drink as they please.
That’s what I thought… But I suppose that would not settle the matter…
“Well, since Ms. Anne is a guest here… I don’t see why she shouldn’t?”
“Hmph…”
“Perhaps if she tastes and sees how delicious it is, she will not think of doing such a thing in the future.”
“If you insist…Mr. Takumi.”
“Hahaha. You sure are weak to Mr. Takumi.”
“Father! That is not necessary!”
“Thank you, Mr. Takumi. Now I will be able to drink the wine.”
“It’s nothing…”
Delicious things should be enjoyed.
And that should not be disturbed by strange ideas… I just hoped that she would understand that…
Well, the rest was us to Ms. Claire and Mr. Ekenhart, so I would not say anything else.
And the time passed as I ate breakfast and watched Mr. Ekenhart tease Ms. Claire, while Ms. Anne looked excited.
As Tilura, Leo and Sherry had no interest in the wine, they were looking at Ms. Anne as if to ask, ‘Why is she so excited?’
I would ask Ms. Helena to make more juice for them…
“Milina.”
“Ah, master!”
“Are you busy now?”
“No. Since you talked about concocting the medicine yesterday, I’ve been waiting for you!”
After eating breakfast, I finished making the herbs to give to Nick, and then I went to the drawing room to search for Milina.
There, Milina was waiting while looking over the book and all of the notes she took up until now.
She really was passionate about her studies… I had to try and match her.
“Now, about concocting. It is right here…”
“Yes. This is what it says…”
While making the herbs to give to Nick, I had also made more of the three types of herbs that I showed to Ms. Helena and Sebastian yesterday.
I then used Weed Cultivation to change them into their most effective state, so that they were ready to be mixed together.
And so Milina and I read the book and went over the instructions.
“Uhh, turn them into powder and mix… Ms. Lyra, do you have a pestle and mortar?”
“Yes, I’ll bring one right away.”
“Thank you.”
While it depended on the medicine you were trying to make, you generally mixed them while crushing the herbs in a mortar.
As you couldn’t do that with liquids, there were other processes that included heating and cooling. But this was the general one that we would test first.
It seemed doable, even though I wasn’t sure about the taste.
“Here it is.”
Ms. Lyra returned with the pestle and mortar, and so I put the three herbs inside and began to grind them together.
There were two sets, and so both Milina and I tried different ones.
And so for some time, the sounds of grinding herbs echoed through the drawing room.
