Fugitive Poison User ~I Am Somehow Recovering In A World Full Of Miasma~ Chapter 54

After numerous battles on the way and dropping by villages between those fights, we finally managed to reach a village close to the mine .
Though we did encounter quite a few powerful monsters, we managed to come out ahead and quickly defeat them all thanks to Celes’ vanguard and Arleaf’s spells .
I’ve even gained four levels because of them .

Those four levels granted me a few powers too . The time needed to condense Mollifying Poison has been shortened and I’m now able to create normal Paralysis Poison without the “Weak” modifier .
I wonder exactly how strong those monsters we fought were .
By the way, it seems that the mine is recommended level for people with base jobs is 45 or higher .

Gee, that really is something…
That would mean you’d need to be even stronger if you wanna head deep into the mine . Sounds rough .

‘I have asked the la.s.s about it and she said swamp thou hadst been visiting daily had a recommended level of 35 . ’

… maybe it’s easier than I thought then?

‘Consider abnormal status effects too . Surely, thou seest thy progress as well . The monsters in the area are but dense with quintessence . ’

Oh, so this area isn’t dense with miasma but with quintessence?

‘Aye . Forget not the fact that thanks to the la.s.s’ Poison Cooking, thou art able to gain much more experience . It is only natural to easily level up here . ’

I see…
I might be pus.h.i.+ng my limits here, but the monsters here aren’t that strong either .

“Let’s make haste . ”

There’s a village before the mine, so I’m guessing it’s like a place for lodging .
Merchants likely come here to purchase ores from adventurers and so there’s constantly a bustle .

“We could have made our purchases here and then head home… but we ought to press on and level up . ”

“Yes . ”

Maybe we’d be more effective with better equipment, but since we’ve got Celes, it shouldn’t be a problem .
Not to mention, we have the weapons Wayne lent us too .
We hurry out of the village to challenge the dungeon in the mine .

Since this is a mine, I was wondering if we’re in a volcanic belt . This mountain is mostly covered with rock and barely are there any trees .

‘It is true that there are mines near volcanoes, but we are not in such an area . ’

Well, guess not .
On our way up the hill, a seemingly unending number of ore-like monsters popped out .
There are the rock-type Wistaria Rocks and what could only be described as giants made of stone, the Boulder Rock Golems .
All of them were quickly dispatched by Celes and Arleaf, almost as if they were none of our business .
Just in case, I have my crossbow trained at the enemies, but they pretty much didn’t need me . It was nice and easy .
This EXP is totally awesome .

‘Thou art easily excitable . ’

But Veno, you’re originally super high leveled so it might not seem like it’s much to you . To me, though, it really is awesome .

“Augh…”

An adventurer being carried on a stretcher comes into view .

“What happened to him?” Celes quietly walks up and asks .

“Ah, we were unlucky and got into a pocket of gas . Some managed to get away, but then there’re the ones who were hit bad…”

Gas poisoning, eh?

Gas poisoning, eh?
That’s rough . I mean, I probably don’t have to worry about it since I have Poison Absorption, but still…
Plus, Veno can probably sense it before it’s even a problem .

‘Aye . ’
“Umm…”

Lemme check if I can’t help the guy .

“What is it? I’d like to rush this guy off to the village to get some help if I could . None of the magic we know could heal him . ”
“We know a thing or two about healing magic . Would you mind if I took a look?”
“Not at all! Please do . ”

The adventurers carrying the stretcher showed me their ally .
Veno taught me a bunch of things, so I’ll put my knowledge to good use .
From what I can see… the guy’s condition seems to be exactly as they claimed .
His breathing is shallow; perhaps a symptom?
I can tell this could be caused by volcanic gases, but this is just a regular rocky mountain, right?
Carbon dioxide poisoning would be odd . It’s probably some type of gas unique to this alternate world .
But since Veno taught me this before already…

“It’s Basiluta poisoning . Get him some fresh air and heal him with wind elemental restorative magic . If you want something more instant, have him take some Windka.s.se mixed with Bluelive Aqua . That should heal him quick . ”

The poisoning is affecting his bronchial tubes, making it hard to breathe for him .
Veno was just showing me the dangers of volcanic gases in my vision, so it’s still fresh in my mind .

‘Aye, that is correct . Thou art a quick learner . ’

‘Aye, that is correct . Thou art a quick learner . ’

Well, you know, whenever a peaceful moment comes, this annoying dragon always starts grumbling in my head .
I can’t help but to have learned a thing or two .

“Windka.s.se? Do we have any of that?”
“Is it this?”

Arleaf takes out some dried Windka.s.se and Bluelive Aqua from her pouch .

“Thank you . ”

I take the herbs from Arleaf and compound the medicine as directed by Veno .
Meanwhile, Arleaf and the rest are just finis.h.i.+ng up a conversation about taking their money .
I stick some of the medicine I made into the collapsed adventurer’s mouth .
The effects are immediate .
His face is quickly becoming less and less pale .

“Muu!”
“Yes, Muu-Muu, please lend me a hand . Aroma Heal . ”

Arleaf uses Muu as a catalyst to cast Aroma Heal .
The adventurer begins to rapidly recover and regains his senses .

“Where…”
“It seems like he’s awake . ”
“Wow! That’s amazing! I can’t believe how quickly you fixed him up!”
“Thank you!”

His buddies gather together and shower me with their thanks .

“I’ve performed some first-aid on him, but it would be best to bring him somewhere safe . Though it doesn’t seem like there are any other symptoms, there’s still an inherent danger to poisoning . ”

The adventurers listened and nodded at what I said .

“Thank you . We’ll do as you say and bring him back to the village for some proper treatment . ”
“Mm, and remember to get him some fresh air . It will help him naturally recover . ”
“Gotcha! See you around!”

With that, we finished healing the adventurer .

“Hmpf… you truly live up to your reputation as a healer, Cohgray . Now then, let us continue . Do be careful to not succ.u.mb to the same fate as he . ”
“Don’t worry, I’ll be aware . ”
“You sure are knowledgeable, sir . Having someone like you around is extremely helpful . ”

Hey, if you stroke my ego that much, I’ll start blus.h.i.+ng .
Well, since it’s really Veno’s knowledge, I can’t be boasting . I quickly come back down to Earth .
I felt like I was useful though .
But still… there are some problems you can’t fix with antidote magic .

‘I can but say it depends on the circ.u.mstance . In his case, the poison was not of magic, but of minerals . It cannot be cured without a lengthy application of some mid-level magic . And if one had that much time, thou mayst as well concoct some medicine . ’

I guess so .
Anyway, let’s save the banter for later and start trekking .
