About Making The Low-Tier Tamer Profession Top-Tier Using My Previous Life's Knowledge Chapter 3

The man gently placed Prinzel on the ground.

I placed my fingers on the base of Prinzel's neck.

…….No pulse, huh. It seems that my initial a.s.sumption had been right.

At any rate, it's a race against time from here on out.

Prinzel's laboured breathing — otherwise known as agonal breathing [1] — is getting worse, along with the bluish discoloration of the earlobes and fingers.

It should be fine to conclude this as a case of heart failure.

For fear to be the cause of a heart failure isn't something that happens often…but when someone who has lived a pampered lifestyle is made to experience fear for the first time — in the form of the [Book of Terror] no less — it would not be strange if the neurons of said person went haywire due to the level of fear that was received.[2]

First, a heart ma.s.sage……is what I'd like to do. Unfortunately, the body weight and arm strength of an untrained 8 year old child will not be able to apply the necessary pressure to help with heart failures.

It'll be little of an irregular procedure, but I guess I'll start off with that magic.

Making up my mind, I began my chant.

[With the forces of Coulomb born from my magic, right the beatings of thy Heart!!][3] (Varius)

I chanted while pressing my hands onto the left side of Prinzel's chest.

Immediately after that, Prinzel's chest received a large surge of electric current, causing his body to jump up in a jolt.

What I used was [Heartbeat restoration magic].

Similar in effect to defibrillation and heart ma.s.sages, it is a magic which sends a set of electrical signals throughout the body periodically — A lifestyle magic for medical purposes.

As it is merely lifestyle magic and not healing magic, an 8-year-old Tamer child would be able to invoke the spell with ease.

[Haa……..huff…, …huff] (Prinzel)

Prinzel's agonal breathing seems to have subsided as his breathing has now quietened down to a regular pace.

I was worried I would run out of mana if one time was not effective enough…but it seems like it was a needless worry. 

In any case, he will be on a path to full recovery with this.

[Seems that everything is fine now. Let's pick up from where we left off, and head towards the feudal lord's mansion.] (Varius)

I said to the man. 

But…there was no response.

I turned to face the man while thinking it was strange, what greeted me was the man's round eyes which seemed like they'll pop out of their sockets.

[T…Ta….A Ta…A TAMER JUST USED HEALING MAGIC——?!] (Man)

The man nervously approached Prinzel, his gaze fixed upon that peaceful face.

[Nah, that just now wasn't healing magic, you know? It's was clearly lifestyle magic for medical purposes.] (Varius)

[I've never heard of a lifestyle magic capable of saving a dying person though…] (Man)

The man said with a bewildered expression.

That's weird.

Defibrillation magic should be at the level where it is taught as part of the learning content in safety cla.s.ses for children. 

…No, wait a minute.

Come to think of it, I don't have any memories of my post-reincarnated self ever taking a children's safety cla.s.s.

At first, I thought this man flunked his studies during his period of compulsory education…but perhaps it was I who reincarnated into a place where the degree of education is lacking. 

[But really, you…what was that, chant magic? Despite knowing a lifestyle magic which no one else knows, you sure used quite an outdated method of using magic.] (Man)

[Since that magic was the kind where it would have an adverse effect if the strength is too great, I thought it was better to use chant magic which does not rely on one's mastery over their magic control.] (Varius) 

[……I see! To think that there was such a way of thinking. That level of creativeness at such an age…"genius" doesn't even begin to describe it.] (Man)

The man said while nodding his head.

……Even this kind of knowledge hasn't been taught?

The thought that this situation is as ridiculous as [A great hero with a military service who, while giving medical treatment to a child, made the great mistake of burning the entirety of his internal organs instead.] flashed through my mind.

[……For the time being, let's hurry to the feudal lord's place. Looking at your situation, it seems like I will have more things to discuss with the feudal lord.] (Man)

The man urged.

Although a serious problem has been resolved for now, it doesn't change the fact that those weakened by the [Book of Terror] requires rest as soon as possible.

Seeing the man walking off while once again carrying 2 of them, I too carried the remaining one on my back and began walking.

*******************************************************************************************************

Upon reaching the feudal lord's mansion, the man explained the situation to the feudal lord, and the 3 victims were carried to one of the rooms in the mansion.

After that, the 3 of us — me, the man, and the feudal lord — convened in the reception room.

[For saving my son today, thank you very much. Is it true that you are the one that subjugated the chouhakai?] (Feudal lord)

The feudal lord asked.

Unlike his son Prinzel, the feudal lord — Carmel-sama — has a warm-hearted personality, and is a sensible gentleman who does not discriminate against Tamers.

[Yes, Carmel-sama. Even if it was a chouhakai, since it was still an infant, even I was able to deal with it.] (Varius)

[Even if it was an infant, your opponent was a chouhakai, I feel like that wasn't much of an excuse…in any case, you were a great help. Besides that, it seems that you used an unheard-of spell to revive my son? Exactly what sort of spell is it?] (Carmel)

[It wasn't revival magic actually. It was just a lifestyle magic to normalise one's heart rate.] (Varius)

[The person himself is like this, speaking as if it wasn't anything special…Varius, to be honest, I believe your talent is at the level of being able to qualify for the top seat in Elite Academy [Note: 精鋭学院[4]]. Carmel-sama, what do you think?] (Man)

Said the man as he interjected into my conversation with Carmel-sama.

Elite Academy…somehow something incredible was brought up.

[I think so too…… If only Arkes-kun[5] wasn't a Tamer, I would definitely write him a letter of recommendation…… No, wouldn't this child be able to use this chance to strive towards raising the status of Tamers instead?] (Carmel)

The feudal lord began brooding.

…That, is weird.

Somehow, hasn't the conversation turned into how seemingly difficult it is for Tamers to enrol into an academy?

Disregarding Prinzel, I didn't think the feudal lord, Carmel-sama would be someone who would say something like that.

Guess I'll just probe the matter a little.

[Are there any problems with Tamers?] (Varius)

[I do not think so…however, society thinks otherwise. I'll be honest, you being a Tamer is unfortunate. It is to the degree that if I were to give you a recommendation, even I would be made a target of ridicule.] (Carmel)

[Is that so?] (Varius)

……It seems like the world I am in now is many times weirder than I thought.

While I had that thought, the male adventurer blurted out.

[Speaking of which, you said that you had the weapon that defeated chouhakai on hand. About that, could you let us hear about it in detail?] (Man)

I clicked my tongue in my heart.

……Are you really bringing up that topic now?

[Now that you mention it, I too am interested in hearing about it in detail.] (Carmel)

Even Carmel-sama is joining in, looks like I have lost the chance to come up with a plan that dodges the topic.

[……I defeated it using the Ruyi Staff.] (Varius)

[[……Ruyi Staff?]] (Carmel and man)

[Yes. ……my apologies for it being a tale of merely using a powerful weapon despite both your expectations.] (Varius)

For the time being, I apologised.

However, the reactions I got from the both of them was a little different from what I imagined.

[Hey, that was unheard-of weapon isn't it?] (Carmel)

[That's right. If there wasn't the achievement of it defeating a chouhakai, I would not realise that it is the name of a weapon……the situation is becoming more and more complicated.] (Man)

……This reaction as well, this is weird after all.

It shouldn't be a weapon with an obscure name.

[Ah, but I do not normally use it, you know?  I just have it for the sake of self-defense…] (Varius)

I glossed over the issue for the time being.

I wouldn't want to be thought of as the kind of person who is spoiled by their parents. Well in my case, my real strength comes from what I gained personally in my past life, but there's no way the feudal lord and the others have any way of knowing that.

[Why is that? With such a powerful weapon, isn't it fine for you keep using it in order to continue defeating powerful magical beasts?……Well, in the worst case you could lose your life and that would be putting the cart before the horse.] (Carmel)

[It is as Carmel-sama said. After all, the weapons Tamers possess  outdated when compared to the other professions right? Even if it means ignoring your own safety, you should continue using it.] (Man)

[……Is that how it is? Well, if it's fine for me to use it freely then I shall continue using it though…] (Varius)

It was a needless worry.

As usual, there are some parts about how Tamers are treated that I am doubtful of…but I'm grateful that I am able to use my drop items freely.

At this rate, I feel like it would be fine to utilise the Nimbus Cloud for daily uses.

[Well then, I'll leave the 3 people resting here to you. Would it be all right for me to take my leave now?] (Varius)

Since I don't really have any reason to remain here any longer, I decided to head back home.

[Ahh, that's right. I wanted to discuss the matter with you a little more,but you must be tired. You can return for the day.] (Carmel)

With that said, the 2 of them sent me off when I left the mansion.

[Well, see you later!]

I took the Nimbus Cloud out using storage magic and rode it through the sky.

Side Story: The feudal lord and the others

[……Huh? He went home flying through the sky?] (Varius)

[So he did, riding a magic tool which I have not seen before…No, a tool which I'm not even sure if it is magic or something else entirely.] (Man)

[We have just seen another one of Varius' mysterious parts haven't we?] (Carmel)

[So we have.] (Man)

[This is…it might be better if I seriously consider giving him my recommendation to Elite Academy without being constrained by his profession.] (Carmel)
