The one who makes Milty’s parents as ‘its’ slave…… ‘its’ power that is heretically perverted…… it means that I would definitely lose in a frontal confrontation. It might be also a type of enemy that has the worst compatibility for me.

I naturally have already expected such situation to rise so I work hard to improve both my martial and magic skill as to close any weakness that I might have. The more holes in my defense that I managed to close means that it would be harder for me to die. Just like when I fight Yuisia back then, even if all I can do back then was just to wait until my charm skill triggered, it was because I have a rich array of skill to choose so I can buy those precious seconds.

And the [Thief] skill especially plays an important role in the battle with Yuisia. When I look back on how I learnt the skill, I’m feeling really lucky. I suddenly remember the cat burglar girl who broke into my home when the fire accident happened and I also remember how I apprehend her in the next. Remembering that, I can only lament at myself, I was too young at that time. Well, I am still a 5 years old boy now though.

"...... Don’t you have any doubt about why I don’t go to save my daughter and in law?"
"No...... I understand. Obabsama has Milty to protect so you can’t do anything dangerous right?
"Obabsama...... Don’t do dangerous things. I will save mom and daddy"

Obabsama who heard what Milty said closes her eyes for a moment. When her wrinkly eyelids opened up again, she gives out a smile.

"It is too early. But we will definitely save then. I used to think that I won't be able to save them personally given the limited time I have left but fortunately, I managed to make [That]......"
"Eh?...... Obabsama, don’t tell me [That] thing you mean is"
"Umu. At first, I thought I would show it after waiting for some time but, at this rate, Hiroto will finish learning high grade Spirit Magic in no time and would lose any reason to visit so...... Milty, could you please leave us two for a while?"
"......? Important talk?"
"Umu. and definitely no peeking from the window either. Because if you do then I might turn into a crane and fly away"
[#Translated By Cool1dmp until this point with some edit from Eros]

The last part of her word somehow familiar, does this world also have the same folklore? So Obabsama acted like that crane who is returning her favor? When I think about it again, that folklore is really sad. Who cares if someone else knows your true appearance anyway?
[#Google: the crane that returned the favor]

Oops, it is not a good time to get distracted. Milty is not that naïve to believe that Obabsama can turn into a crane but she still obediently follow her word.

“Well then…… about that Elixir that we made, from the part that you left behind, I put away half of it just in case. It might not be that almighty as a medicine but it can still save some life in emergency”
“I also thought the same. In 1 Elixir creation process we can get 8 portions of it right?”
“Inside this flask is the 4 portions that you left behind. I am using one portion of it to be my research material. Actually, Elixir is not a medicine with the sole purpose of only healing. It has 1 other face”

Obabsama then shows me that 1 portion elixir that is being preserved inside a crystal phial. Does she has an inventory inside her robe? She

can take out many things from it after all.

“The other face…… do you mean another use? Like maybe, instantly bane an undead?”
‘’There are no holy element inside so there are no such function. Even if you use it on an undead, there would be no effect at all. Just keep that one in mind…… Then let me say it straight, Elixir is not yet a final product. It is only a base ingredient to create [7 Nostrum]”

7 nostrum…... In one go, I suddenly know that there are 7 more unknown items. While I am filled with curiosity about what kind of items those are, I am also feel something profound from comparing the knowledge that I know in the game and in this life. Back then, the game was still incomplete yet it was already that popular. Just what kind of G.o.dlike game would it become if it was to be completed? Did the game still continue its development even after I got reincarnated here? I can’t help getting my mind derailed.

“I want to create 1 specific nostrum from all that 7. And my reason to do is only one…… to prepare for what will come, I must have that no matter what”
“What will come….. perhaps, about Milty’s parent……”
“Umu. But then again, of course I can’t help them by myself. You and the holy knight, and then elaboration from a few others are certainly needed. But the most difficult thing is to find the where about of this enemy. But regarding that, I have already start searching”
“I will also report it directly to Obabsama if I heard such kind rumor”

For my current self, there is no info in Mizell that I didn’t know of but this town is just a small one. If the scope of search doesn’t cover the entire Asurtorum continent then…… Maybe for the first step, I have to increase the influence of my information network inside Junegan kingdom.

Well, Sonia has just being born so maybe I will stay in Mizell for another 2…… no maybe for another 3 years first. But then again, I also want to start progressing with my main quest.

My current objective is to have another meeting with the G.o.ddess. And the clue to accomplish that seemed to be hidden in the game’s main quest. The main quest that was still not completely implemented has some teaser info about getting closer into the realm of G.o.ds so just maybe.

The place where the main quest started is in the capital of Junegan kingdom. That means I definitely have to go there in the future. It just that, I don’t know whether the main quest will be really triggered or not nor the story progress will be the same as the one in game or not.

“If I haven’t met you, If I am not successful in creating elixir, I would probably just gave up. But now I see some hope. Yet here I thought that you would probably be satisfied after learning elementary level of spirit magic…… I am really sorry. I have treated you badly at the start. Did you feel angry at me?”
“No, rather I like it strict. I think it made me stubbornly want to learn magic no matter what…… in addition to that, I now know just how kind-hearted obabsama is”
“…… Just now finally I understand. I used to wonder why Sarasa falls head over heels to you”
[Eros: granny flag! *puke]

Obabsama shows a bitter smile. Sara.s.san, what kind of talk did you have with obabsama? …… How much did see tells her I wonder? I’ve been indebted to an uncountable ‘favor’ from her after all. Saying that [She is the one brought me up] is not in the least bit wrong.

“I never imagine that you would even give your poison to

to me. Well, it can’t be helped now that things have come to this”
“Eh? …… Obabsama? What did you just say?” [Eros: Ooooo boi]
“Being thickhead might kills you someday you know? Milty and Riona, which one will you choose? And it seems like there are other uncountable woman yearning for you too right?”
“E-err…… Milty is still a child, she might not yet understand doesn’t she?”

Just what kind of weak pantsy excuse was that? I actually knows how much Milty feels about me. Well, we are both still just four years old though.

“That girl should have already aware you know? After all, she is my grandchild”

…… N? It’s weird… since a while ago, what obabsama says toward me is kinda......

No no no no, how come the great sage of Mizell who have tasted the sour and sweet of live would fall for me right? While thinking about that, I suddenly remember the young appearance of Neris-san. [Eros: Man… seriously!?]

Her type is different from Milty and is also a total babe. She is like a pretty girl cosplaying a witch. Well, she is a real witch though. And a real staunch-dyed in the wool one too.

Hey, just what kind of unrespectable thing did I just think about my benefactor? …… Her youth appearance is only a temporary measure she takes for the sake of helping me. She definitely didn’t do it in order to please me and yet here I am writing that she looks pretty in my letter. What the h.e.l.l me, this made me look like having desperation for her youthful appearance.

“…… Well then, let’s not make Milty wait for too long. Could you please look at that way for a while? Until I say it’s okay, don’t look over here okay? …… My disciple, Hiroto”
“Y-yes! ……”

When she especially mentions ‘my disciple’, I can’t help but to obey her respectfully. Wendy always mentions herself as my disciple and now, I finally understand how her feeling is. To learn something from someone I respect is making me feel proud.

“…… N…… T-this is quite…… Even if this is personally made by myself…… the taste is just…… out of this world……”

Taste? …… did Obabsama drinks some kind of medicine?
She said that she used one prescription of elixir for her experiment…… did she drinks the medicine created from that? If she decided to test the medicine in front of me, her disciple, then it is my responsibility as her disciple to witness the result.

“Fuh….. Ugh…… No-not yet…… Don’t turn back yet…… Until the effect established, it still need some time……”

(…… E-eh? Why did Obabsama’s voice gradually turns younger? …… Doesn’t she sounds…… kinda amorous?)

Obabsama’s original hoa.r.s.e voice is gradually become clearer. One could even feel the color of youth gradually filled her voice.

Just what is happening? ---- Well, I think I can even guess without looking back to check.

“Haa, Haa…… I think it’s good enough…… You can turn back now, Hiroto”

After I turn my sight timidly, I see the figure that I imagined just a moment ago, although with some minor differences, she is Obabsama ---- No, Neris-san.

“…… I don’t have time to check my appearances in mirror but…… how is it?”
“O-obabsama…… Does one of the 7 nostrums that can be created from elixir is perhaps, youth restoration potion? ……”
“U-umu…… I indeed feel a bit cheating using such kind of thing but, my principle is to test any medicine I created for the first time on myself nanojya”

Neris-san, she still says Nanojya in that appearance…… From her previous high scholer appearance, she is currently looks a bit more mature but, the nostrum’s effect is tremendous. She gets considerably younger now. Rather than

Rather than a Majyokko (little witch), she is now a normal adult witch. She just turned into a woman in full bloom.
[Eros: Neris speak in archaic style with umu, nanojya, jyaga etc etc which I gave up trying to find a related English translation. If I remember correctly, there’s a nojya girl in dog days season 3 (the squirrel girl) just watch the anime to get a feel about this nojya speech style. And BTW, what Hiroto mention here is that it is weird for younger girls to use that kind of speech]

She is not in the age of a bishoujo as she looks like a woman in her mid-twenties…… Don’t tell me, no way. From Neris-sam 17 year old appearance to this mature lady appearance, the growth of those twin peaks is incomparable! So this is the sight of her golden age! …… No, calm down me. All things aren’t based on the breast! Definitely not!

Name: Neris Orelia
Human, Female, 27 (68) years old, Level 53

Job: Elementalors [Eros: google is your best friend]
Life: 256 / 256
Mana: 784 / 784

Skill:
Staff Mastery 73
Short Sword Mastery 10
Spirit Magic 84
Apothecary 82
Body Strength 18
Magic Power 65
[Eros: previously strong body and magic grounding. Change to make it simple]
Motherhood 63
Cooking 32
Gathering 54

---- How absurd. Neris-san that is returning to the age of 27 is strong beyond measure. Indeed she can’t compete with Sovereign Dragon but even so, her status is already top cla.s.s…… beside mine that is. I never see anyone else with this high status achievement before. And this job, Elementalors, isn’t this the strongest job in spirit magician category?

Is the Youth Restoration Potion has a time limit to its effect? Her age in the status is written in a weird way.
She have an amazing number of action skill and pa.s.sive skill and I can’t read all of them in a short time.

“Youth Restoration Potion will have its effect fade gradually until the receptor regains their original age. One year age will be used up in a week so I will return back to my original age in a year jya” [Eros: well, just add this in the end anyway]
“…… But doesn’t that mean that as long as one has the potion, one can keep their youth forever?”
“Thinking from how rare the Youth Restoration Potion ingredient is, I’d say that even creating one is already a miracle. Ma.s.s product it is simply beyond impossible…… The source of the main ingredient is those divine beasts that have very small population after all. This problem is not something that can be cleared by magic”

True, if I want to make another batch of elixir then it would take quite a long time before I could gather all the ingredient…… the ingredient from Divine Beast is pretty expensive too. Even if I was lucky to get those ingredients once, it might never go out again in the market for a second time. Its rarity rating is Super Unique after all. Knowing the place where the ingredient comes might help but that might drives the Divine Beast into extinction so it is still impossible. It is a wrong thing to do by moral standard.

But…… seeing this effect, I’m sure that there would be many people wanting to have it. The obabsama before drinking it was just an old granny who is hunchbacked and all wrinkly. But she is now standing tall with her skin smooth and healthy. Even her rocket b.o.o.bs revived grandiosely. If Milty still calls her obabsama, I would definitely find it weird.

“The current me should be able to join your party when facing strong enemies jyarou. Even if you don’t choose Milty in the future, you can still rely on me if you have any trouble in the future. I would be I would be able to maintain my peak golden age strength for another 20 weeks or so”

So the limit is 50 years old. After that one’s strength would start declining due to aging…… Anyway, she really is beautiful.

If any man who doesn’t know anything see her, they would definitely fallen for her looks. It is fortunate that Obabsama rarely go out to town so it would be difficult for other people to witness what happened to her.

While thinking about that, Neris-san is crouching down in front of me, Filianes-san also does this a lot to me but when someone suddenly closing in to me, honestly, I still can’t help but feeling nervous.

“Hiroto yo…… this next option will all be decided by your feeling if you want to. As you can see, my age now is at the time when I just deliver my daughter jya”
“I-is that so…… Neris-san, you really was a beauty”
“My daughter was not the type who drinks a lot of breast milk…… I was troubled with my swelling breast at the time so in the end, I have to squeeze my breast on my own nojya”
[Eros is currently having some trouble with his mind]

---- If you bring that kind of topic yourself, I can’t help but to correct my body posture to listen you know? The theme is just too heavy for me.

“This is not something widely known but, a mother’s milk has the power to make their baby inherit the mother’s ability. But my daughter doesn’t manage to inherit my spirit magic ability so she chooses to learn beast magic instead jyayo. And that beast magic is inherited by Milty”
“So that’s how it was…… Then doesn’t that mean when Milty still a baby……”
“Milty separates with her parents before she turns one year old. I can’t save anyone else besides her jyayo. A hunchbacked granny is just powerless…… But it’s different now”

Neris-san’s voice contains strong power within. Obabsama is fighting for the sake of her daughter and in law…… that is all to it.

“…… But the time is not yet ripe. I am vexed but it won’t mean anything if I just rush to my death jyarou”

I don’t want to think that her enemy power could rival the Sovereign Dragon but it was an opponent that obabsama, although getting weakened from aging, can’t win against. The enemy should be someone who has real power.

“Neris-san, I was thinking of going to the capital after I get old enough. When the time comes, I definitely could go and collect some information”
“Umu…… I also have acquaintance in the capital but that person have been missing from the inside Junegan kingdom for a few years. This enemy for both me and Milty is living like a vagabond, going from one place to another with no permanent settlement. I’m afraid that we need to search the whole continent to find that person nojya”

To find a vagabond, the most effective method would be…… to travel across the Asurtorum continent and make connection in every important point and make a big network of information.

Let’s first start with the capital of Junegan. If I manage to achieve some influence there, if I can become a celebrity with big name that could reach the whole kingdom, the other kingdom would definitely start paying attention to me. But the enemy would also notice my existence though.

The latter is like making myself to be the bait. It is dangerous but rather than having no clues and let time pa.s.ses without achieving anything, some risk is worth taking. If Milty’s parents are treated as slaves, there’s no telling what kind of treatment they get. The longer the time it take to save them, the higher the risk of having dangers befall them.
