Chapter 187: Gyuuu (squeezing sound)

　After regaining her senses, Baroness Raniemi seemed to realize that she was all better. Perhaps unable to hide her surprise at her amazing recovery, she got out of bed.

　Of course, she was wearing her nightgown. Even if it was a thick nightgown for late autumn, it was not something a gentleman would look at. Moreover, she was an unmarried woman. As gentlemen, we all turned our backs.

“I-I’m sorry for showing you something so unsightly. I’ll change my clothes right away, so could you please wait outside for a little while?”

“I’m sorry for not being attentive. Cain, Julius.”

　Brother Alex took me outside. My sister-in-law’s figure is amazing. Even in her nightgown, you can see where she sticks out and where she pulls back.

“Brother Cain, sister-in-law is all right now. She was even able to get up right away, you know. The child I cured at the orphanage was soon able to play with everyone.”

“The magic potion you made seems to be really effective. I would like to have some for when I get injured.”

“I would like some of the magic potion Julius made too. They don’t seem to have a bad taste or smell.”

　It seems that my brothers are also interested in the magic potion I made. I’ll have to start making magic potions for them tomorrow and for a while after that. Oh, I also need to make some for sister-in-law too.

“Thank you for waiting. Please, come in.”

“If you’ll Excuse us.”

　Baroness Raniemi showed us into the room. I wondered if it was safe for men to enter a woman’s room, but I couldn’t refuse her, so I went in. Since we were going to be relatives in the future, there was no need for us to be so reserved. I’ll try to think of it that way.

　I looked at the room again and saw that it was uniformly decorated in pink and white. I thought it was cute and found a sword displayed in the room. Not one, but several. It looks a little out of place in the room.

“Do you feel any physical discomfort, sister-in-law?”

“No, I don’t feel any discomfort. I feel like my body has become lighter.”

　She answered with a smile. It doesn’t seem like she’s lying. That’s a relief. When I looked at my brother Cain, I saw that his color was gradually improving. That’s good.

“Thank you so much. I owe it all to you, Julius-chan.”

　Saying that, my sister-in-law hugged me tightly. My face is pressed between her ample breasts. I didn’t know what to do and stopped moving. Even so, my sister-in-law still squeezed me tightly. It smells really good. It’s hard to breathe (wheezing). 

　I’m sure It must have been quite painful. Not only that. She must have thought it was all over. Maybe the reason why she didn’t let Brother Cain into the room may have been because she was thinking about the worst case scenario. Maybe she was trying to get away from him as much as possible.

　After enjoying it for a while, Brother Cain ripped me off her with a snap, as if to say, “ service time is over.” Brother Cain’s cheeks are puffed up. He looks frustrated. But since I am the one who saved Baroness Raniemi’s life, he can’t say anything.

“There’s no need to thank me. After all, you’re my future sister-in-law.”

　When I said this with a smile, her face turned red as if she was finally aware of it. I had been calling her sister-in-law for a while now, but she didn’t seem to notice. Brother Cain’s face turned red as well.

“Julius is right. There’s nothing to hold back. Come on, Julius, let’s leave so we don’t get in the way.”

“I understand. Brother Cain, even though I have treated her illness, there is no doubt that she’s still recovering. Please do not push her too hard.”

“What are you talking about?”

　I smiled and chuckled at him, and brother Alex also smiled and chuckled at him. Brother Cain’s face fell. We walked out of the room.

　As we were leaving the girls’ dormitory, brother Alex stopped walking.

“Julius, you did a great job. I never expected a magic potion to be so quick-acting. With that, you can instantly cure people with lung disease. Are cold remedies also like that?”

“Yes, cold remedies are the same. But in the case of cold remedies, there are no side effects, so there is no need to continue taking an elementary recovery potion.”

　Hmmm…hmmm, nodded the elder brother with his hand on his chin. As a former student body president, he may be relieved to know that he already has the means at hand to deal with the disease that is spreading in the school.

“What are you going to do with that cold medicine, Julius?”

“What am I going to do? I’ve already instructed the Royal Magic Potion Division to make it. Tomorrow, when I go to the castle, I’m going to teach them how to make the magic potion that cures lung diseases. That is, if I have the materials.”

　I’ve also told them to collect the ingredients, “ poisonous moth scales,” and I think they’ll be fine. With their skill, it’s no problem. Maybe it was a bad idea to teach them how to make magic potions?　But I haven’t heard anything about that.

“Maybe the magic potion you made will save this country.”

“No way. Do you think ……  you think this epidemic will spread throughout the whole country?”

“I think it’s possible. And the lung disease from the common cold will also spread to some extent.”

　Ah, that’s not very good. I think there are already magic medicines for colds that exist, and they are sold as usual, if you don’t mind using gross cold medicine, but there is no magic potion that works for lung diseases yet. In a sense, it’s a magic potion that I developed. Of course,  I’m going to insist that it was handed down to me by my grandmother.

“Then perhaps I should ask the Adventurers’ Guild to help me secure the ingredients.”

“What exactly do you need?”

“I’ve already asked the Royal Palace Magic Potion Division, but I need ‘poisonous moth scales powder’. Also, you have to use a basic recovery potion as part of the set. It is not absolutely necessary, but it will slow down the healing process. It will take two or three months to become completely healthy.”

　Me and my brother look at each other. I think we both look tense.

　By this time, I wonder if brother Cain has a relaxed face.  I want to reach that stage too.

“Understood. I’ll tell the Adventurer’s Guild.”
