It's all one flower.

"I have prepared two kinds of stomach medicine, but the effect is reversed, so please be careful not to prescribe them by mistake."

"What happens if I drink the other way?"

The boy, an apprentice pharmacist (* giggle *), pulls his notebook out of his chest pocket and asks.

The pharmacist Awelana responded with shining blue eyes in search of knowledge.

"Dyspeptic stomach medicine has the effect of stimulating the secretion of stomach acid. If you give this to patients with stomach pain, gastritis, or ulcers due to acid overload or stress... what do you think will happen?"

"Huh? Well, it's getting worse and it's making a hole in your stomach...?"

"Yes, stomach acid is hydrochloric acid, but a healthy stomach is usually safe because it is protected by a mucous membrane. However, if you have too much acid in your stomach, or if you are exposed to disease or stress, you will have an ulcer in about five seconds."

The boy notes it in his notebook with a serious expression.

Awelana looked around again at the dispensing room of the 18th clinic.

Rather than a grimoire, I didn't have a single book.

How do you learn how to make medicine?

“While working late at night, I'm being taught a little bit about the work involved. That's why I put it in my pocket, the notebook that the volunteers gave me so that I could write it down anytime."

You should have a study book, right?

“I don't think I have time to read it because I'm too busy.”

The boy blinds himself to his feelings of apologies.

... yes, Mr. Farkill put it in his file on first aid and infection prevention.

Although it is a training material at the assembly hall, the apprentice boy may not be able to go to the assembly hall due to this busyness.

Awelana wrote it down in her notebook.

"I think you should study only the minimum necessary to help the clinic. I'll ask my colleagues to bring it later."

What's the minimum?

The boy looks anxiously at the professional pharmacist (giggle).

"Infection control and first aid for amateurs."

"Ah... if you don't know, you can't." It just seems to get in the way at the clinic. "

“The Congregation was also trained in advance to help with the clinic.”

A woman from the Patence Temple Congregation said while removing dead leaves from the medicinal herbs.

A large plate at the work desk is filled with cotton bugs, and another plate is filled with medicinal herbs that have been drained.

"The training material is not a proper book, but just printed information for the general public and stamped it in a file, so you can write it down."

Is that okay?

“Yes, the Amitostigma Kingdom's bureaucracy has made it easy to understand and free of charge for people who have never studied medicine. I don't have that many pages, so I think we'll finish reading it soon.”

A little force was released from the boy's shoulder.

Pharmacist (* *) Awelana confirms the type and quantity of magic drugs with the boy and explains each one, the cautions such as effects and side effects, and the necessary materials.

The boy sought knowledge with the greed of water staining the dry sand.

Can an amateur handle this?

“You can sharpen the first piece of wood with a knife.”

Is there a lot of processing down there?

"It depends on the thing, but there is a process where the finely finished bark is heated with [manipulated water] to simmer out the ingredients, and the [Thinking Owl] school's [extraction] technique removes the medicinal ingredients and creates an intermediate material."

The pharmacist Awelana took a plastic container from the shelf.

"This yellow powder is the intermediate material made in this way. While applying heat and magic pressure in Powered Water , we will use another technique to extract it at the same time, so we need a lot of training.

Will I be able to do that?

The boy's hand stops taking notes.

You've only just started training, right?

"Yes, I came on June 1 of this year, but I felt like I was only in the way rather than helping, and I want to be of help to the teacher and everyone as soon as possible."

The boy's expression is sad as he goes through the seriousness.

"The teacher is very helpful just by doing what you can do now." For example, cleaning. "

Is it time to clean?

Awelana caught the boy's gaze and said with a disbelieving gaze.

"If there is dust accumulation in the dispensing room, foreign matter contamination is likely to occur, and dandruff and other mites will gush out and eat the ingredients. If the foreign material mixed with dust mite body and manure, there is a risk that the person who used the medicine will develop allergic symptoms."

"Um... cleaning was that important?"

The boy's blue eyes are opened with surprise.

“Yes, cleaning is an important part of hygiene management, not just to look good. In a large hospital, a specialist will clean and disinfect it. It's a simple task, too.”

Huh? Why?

"How many days do you think it would take for the pharmacist (giggle) teacher to separate the worm cotton and dead leaves of medicinal herbs?"

"Huh? Ahh...!"

The boy looks at the two who handle it.

The drained herbs stopped riding on the large plates and were transferred to the cash register. It is also full of two cups, and the third cup is almost half buried.

Two large plates of cotton bugs are on the table.

Archione and the congregation woman silently move their hands.

There was a bag of dried apricots on the desk sometime.

“Even in the big hospital where I was, there were a lot of people hired who were specialized in handling things like this. I want you to pay for it, but I want you to do it.”

"Paying for work..."

You can help with simple tasks that magic can't do, so you can focus on tasks that can only be done by magic.

"Today, you can go to study for the time we helped float." I'll put the story I just heard into my notebook and summarize it. "

Archione stands up and says, stretching her hips.

A woman of the congregation placed a dry herbal basket on the bottom shelf and pointed under the desk.

The four cages there are unclassified just by taking the dead leaves.

"Here's a sample."

Archione replaces an empty container of water potion with a vase and inserts a herb with insect cotton on the desk.

"If you put it in the water, it won't be atrophied for a week or ten days. We don't have enough vegetable oil on the way, so don't rush, just check and sort it out.”

Awelana said, and the boy nodded with a crying face for some reason.
