Chapter 191 - Episode Seventeen - Live Fogg (7)

“‘No, that’s Amazing, brother! All by yourself, you got that Live Fogg! Haha, maybe it’s good even if it’s just brother, with this.”
Augen laughs vigorously.
I like being praised, but I can’t help but feel embarrassed when I’m told so directly.
It seems that Nelgliffe and Augen are the types of people who can praise others straight from the front.
I’m sure they are straight-hearted.
I’m embarrassed, but I don’t feel bad about it.
“Really, I was surprised too! I didn’t think you could cut both ways faster than the response time of Live Fogg’s wards’ attack detection! I’ve never heard of anyone finishing off the Live Fogg in this way before! That’s Abel-san for you! …… Can that weapon eject so fast?”
Sophia asks this and that strongly.
“N-no, that…… Maybe that Live Fogg was the only one who was troubled.”
“No, brother is awesome. If brother were to officially join our church, it would be an awesome help……”
Augen said with a sigh and cowered his thick neck.
“Is there something that troubles you so?”
“Yeah, thanks to the Four Great Priests, the Levi Church is becoming more and more unified. The conflicts have calmed down, but there are still many groups that are opposing the new Levi movement. There are some troubled people among the new Levi followers who are exploiting domestic changes to their advantage and strangling the poor. Oops, that’s not the right thing to say to people from other countries, forget it. When I talk with brother, I can’t help but slacken off”
For him to accidentally slipped up, I guess I’m more trusting than I thought.
For my part, I’m grateful for that.
But it’s nice to be praised so openly.
In the Marlen village, I was seen as the problematic children, and every time I stepped into town, I would get in trouble for my achievements…… I don’t think I’ve ever been given an honest compliment like this before.
At any rate, it looks like I can trust Augen.
Or perhaps it was since the incident with Marias that made me too wary of the Levi Church itself more than necessary.
“Abel…… aren’t you letting your guard down a little bit too much?”
Mea whispers over to me from the side with a small voice in my ear.
“It’s okay, it’s okay ……”
I chuckled and whispered back.
“Oh, Augen-san. I’m a bit interested in the Levi Church’s activities……”
A thin hand reached out quickly from behind me and quickly closed my mouth.
I turned around to see Mea’s face pale and shaking her head.
“No, no …… I was just curious. I was wondering if he usually does this kind of helping people.”
“No, you can’t! That’s probably the one that won’t be able to turn back! Mea has a very bad feeling about this!”
…… Well, sure, it was probably a good thing not to mention it unintentionally.
I don’t want Sophia to go off on me again.
I fooled around by returning an affectionate smile to Augen, who was curiously looking at me and Mea.
Kamla jumped over the steps and landed near the river and began to carefully peel off the Live Fogg that was stuck to the tree.
“Um, was it okay to crush it? You know, the organs are hanging off of the Fogg……”
“Well, it may degrade a little, but it won’t be a problem. I just need to get it back and protect it with magic.”
With that, Kamla swept his fingers through the wood chips and dirt that clung to Live Fogg and stuffed them into the vial with the magic circle painted on it.
In addition, he covered the vial after collecting the organ-like things that had fallen to the ground.
“Roughly how many people can be saved in that Fogg in one piece?”
“What? Oh, oh, …… Ummm, I don’t know much about it, but …… five people, I guess. It’s a pain in the ass, and it can’t be used to treat only a specific number of people. I think I will be mainly used to relieve the condition of seriously ill people. It depends on the outcome, and I don’t know much about it.”
Kamla placed his index finger on his forehead and mouthed this in a thoughtful manner.
The formulation must be difficult.
However, even though it’s a legendary elixir, it’s still that good ……
It’s a great thing to think that it can deal with anything, even a demonic curse, but…… if you were looking at those Levi followers, I might have been expecting too much of a more outrageous item.
After all, there would be no point in cutting off the source of the disease.
While I’m buying time with the power of Livegrass, I have to somehow pull out the spirit user who is controlling the disease demon and beat him.
We also need to consult with Nelgliffe and have him seriously search for the main culprit.
“Well, let’s get back as soon as possible. And I’m sure Nelgliiffe-sama will be surprised. Abe …… would be surprised if he found out this early that we’re back.”
Kamla said, and tried to put the vial of Live Fogg in his pocket.
“I’d like to try something, can I borrow it?”
Kamra glanced over at Augen, then his expression relaxed and he laughed.
“Yeah, good. I don’t know what you’re planning to do, but ……”
Kamla took the long way around and walked up the cliff and handed the vial to me.
I handed the vial to Mea next to me and waved my wand.
“Transport”
In the center of the floating magic circle, the Ortem of the World Tree appears up.
The World Tree’s Ortem was called out, and it shook by itself once.
The Ortem of the World Tree now contains Hamelin.
Once again, I take the vial from Mea and strongly push the Live Fogg’s belly, which is inside and touches it to the long, yellow-green, slender tube.
It is an organ called the demon gut, which is closely related to magic power.
I poured the magic power into it and searched for the magical properties of Live Fogg from the reflected magic power.
The magic power flows through different conditions, and when the information is complete, they form a magic circle and give instructions to World Tree Ortem.
A light lit up in World Tree Ortem’s eyes and it began to move while bouncing.
That reaction meant that World Tree Ortem had found the target safely.
“Alright! We’ve succeeded!”
“Um, Abel-san? What is……?”
Sophia asked frightenedly.
“I had Ortem record Live Fogg’s magical properties! Now we can search for it with greater accuracy and wider area than we did when we were chasing the traces of teleportation magic!”
More to the point, with the power of Hamelin pushed into the World Tree’s Ortem, it should be possible to attract demonic beasts with specific magical powers.
I don’t know how far Hamelin can go, but depending on how it’s used, it could add something to the mix.
“…… Huh?”
“From that reaction, they should have already detected three of them! If we can catch five or so of them, the state of Palgas Village will probably be pretty good. If we do well, we might be able to get at least eight of them! If we can enlist the help of other followers to engage in a full-scale investigation, we should be able to cure the village of the disease in no time at all!”
I explained confidently, expecting the three of them to praise me verbally again.
But Sofia was pale and just fluttered her mouth open and closed like a goldfish on the verge of choking, and she didn’t speak.
“Huh……?”
“Tha-, that will be a problem. ……”
Sophia squeaked out in a small, mosquito-like voice.
“Di-, did I do something wrong?”
“Abel, you see…… er…… there are people still suffering like this, so why don’t you take this home with you first!”
Kamla convinced me so with sweat on his forehead.
“It will take a few days to move and …… now, even if it’s a half-day stretch here, it’s not much…… Oh, um, by any chance, it’s a bad idea in a religious way……”
Somehow Sophia and Kamla are acting strangely.
Live Fogg seems to have a section that is considered sacred, and I wonder if overfishing is still a bad idea.
“Calm down, Sophia, Kamla. I’m sorry, brother. They’re just surprised when they heard that they could get more than one Live Fogg. If you’re serious about it, of course, we’re going to help you. Hey, you guys too, right?”
Augen patted Sophia and Kamla on the shoulder and laughed out loud.
“Well, as expected, I don’t think it’s going to work that well, but …… if brother says so, it’s worth a try.”
Once Augen’s permission was granted, the five of us began to move after the World Tree Ortem.
