Chapter 338

We would drink the medicinal wine in doses

“Mmm…the taste can hardly be said to be good, but I do feel as if strength is welling up in my body.”

“It’s so delicious! Thank you!”

After dinner was finished, and we had our desert, we drank the same medicinal wine that we had yesterday.

Of course, Tilura, Liza, Leo and Sherry drank juice instead.

Mr. Ekenhart drained half of his cup and scowled as he started to feel its effects.

Liza smiled broadly and told Ms. Helena how happy she was.

Ms. Helena smiled back nodded, even though her gaze was mostly on the wagging tail.

Still, Mr. Ekenhart… I’m pretty sure you can’t feel the effects so strongly this soon.

Was this like the placebo effect?

Well, it did make your body feel quite warm…but that was probably because of the alcohol.

“Mr. Takumi, as we were given quite a lot of medicine today, we will not run out for a few days.”

“I see… In that case, could you make it so that we can drink it during the morning and afternoon as well?”

“You want to taste it multiple times during the day, Mr. Takumi?”

“Yes. If it has turned into what I think it has, then it should be more effective that way. I think that it would be best to have it three times a day, either before or after meals. Of course, they will be in small doses.”

“Hmm. I see. Yes, it will be easier to feel the effects if we drink more… Though, I think we must be careful to not drink too much as well.”

“Yes. Even though the overall amount will be increased, you will be drinking less at once. And given the time between, you will not become drunk.”

The medicinal wine that I knew about was sold in stores.

And you were usually supposed to drink small amounts three times a day.

Obviously, you wouldn’t do that if you had to drive. But there were no cars in this world, so it didn’t actually matter.

If you drink half a glass of wine three times a day, you may just get drunk. And we wouldn’t that, when there were people like Ms. Claire here.

But with plenty of time in between and reduced amounts, the alcohol would be broken down, and no one would get drunk.

Though, I suppose you would have to be careful, if you meant to drink other kinds of wine that day as well.

“In that case, about half of what you drank today…a quarter of a glass? Will that do?”

“Yes. I think that should be fine. Maybe even a little less. Uh, how long will the medicine last then?”

“About two to three days.”

“You are going to reduce it that much? I would like to drink a little more…in spite of the taste.”

“This is not to be enjoyed, it’s for your health. But it’s also possible to drink too much. We will continue to make adjustments to it tomorrow then.”

“Yes, thank you.”

“Hmm… I see…”

While I was talking to Ms. Helena about the quantity and concoction of the medicine, Mr. Ekenhart felt that it was not enough.

But with things like these, drinking more didn’t mean that you would become more healthy.

…Well, perhaps it might affect your magic energy…but it could still be dangerous.

If you thought it wasn’t enough, then it would be better to drink a different wine.

While looking unsatisfied, Mr. Ekenhart nodded in agreement, while Ms. Claire looked relieved.

She was probably thinking of the possibility of getting drunk again and embarrassing herself. But that could just be avoided with some restraint.

“Are you going to mix the medicine again like we did today? I want to help too! It was fun!”

“Really? In that case, you may.”

“Yay!”

When she heard us talking about the medicine, Liza raised her hand and volunteered to help.

While it was something Milina and I were supposed to do, if she enjoyed doing it, then I had no reason to object.

It was actually tiring work, but beastkin seemed to have more strength, unlike humans.

“Ms. Helena. While you might have to make more…I want to make it so that other people can taste test it as well.”

“It is easy enough to make, as we just have to mix it with the wine… But, who are you going to give it to?”

“Uh, anyone who wants to try it… Like Sebastian.”

“Me?”

“Yes. You have a lot of knowledge, and should be able to give good advice.”

“Very well. If that is what you say, Mr. Takumi. I shall use what knowledge I have to assist you.”

“Haha. It’s really nothing serious.”

If Liza worked hard, then we would have more medicine to use.

Obviously, I would also help, along with Milina.

And then we would have more medicinal wine, so that more people could taste it.

It was best to have more people who could help with analyzing it.

Besides, Sebastian had a wealth of knowledge, and would be good at explaining anything he felt after drinking it.

After all, he just enjoyed explaining things…

“Sebastian. You seem more enthusiastic now, then when I ask you to do something.”

“I suppose it’s a matter of personal virtue. Father?”

“You are saying I have no virtue?”

“You do… But then again, you went out to town without any guards or telling anyone. So perhaps that is why you are treated differently? Besides, Mr. Takumi knows how to amuse Sebastian.”

“Hmm… When you put it like that…”

Upon seeing Sebastian’s exaggerated enthusiasm, Mr. Ekenhart seemed taken aback.

While Mr. Ekenhart had his virtues, I agreed that Ms. Claire had a point.

Though, I was also to blame when it came to his little excursion in town.
