Hot.

The ingredients extracted from the parasitic mushrooms that entered my arm seem to burn my body from the inside out.

I can feel it reacting in my blood vessels with the diluted potion I had already taken in my body.

My hands are weak. The knife slips away.

"Master Rust!"

I raise my hand and tell Ary and the others who are rushing toward me to stop.

"Stop! It's still okay, so... First, put a potion on the blade of that knife.

I point to a knife lying on the ground.

The loa takes a bottle of potion from his belt and turns it upside down. The potion is poured in a gushing stream onto the blade.

A black smoke-like substance rises from the blade of the knife for a moment, but quickly subsides.

"Master Rust, what in the world? What are you doing?"

Ary is looking more and more uncomfortable.

"I should have explained. I'm sorry. This is the alternative. In primitive magic, blood was the most useful substance.

"What the hell kind of a plan is that? You'll be a parasite! He said his arm was injured!"

My arm is fine. I was drinking a diluted potion. Look, the blood's stopped already."

I show you where I stabbed the knife. The wound is still fresh, but I can see that the potion is slowly, slowly closing it up.

"So, what was the alternative in the end, Rust?"

Taura asked on behalf of a worried Ary.

"In my first plan, I was going to create a special kind of alchemical beast that doesn't use magic stones as its core. Each one of them is a tiny entity that can easily multiply itself by taking over the components of the parasitic mushrooms. I wanted to create such an alchemical beast.

"As I recall, the magical stones required for the creation of alchemical beasts must be used as they are, without processing, after being dropped from monsters? If that's the case, there wouldn't be so many small magic stones, and ......"

Ary finally calmed down and mumbled some common knowledge about alchemy.

"But why do you need such a thing again? Will it help us defeat the demon tribe?"

Taura makes a curious face.

"This time, the parasitic mushrooms that are spreading throughout this country, even if we just defeat the main body of the demon tribe, it will not necessarily disappear, right?"

"Hmm. Is that what it is?"

Maybe, but... That's what this is all about."

I tell him this and slowly sit down on the spot.

It's a little hard to stand, probably because of the fever.

"Hmm. So that's what you've been talking to me about, isn't it?

"Yes. The oracle of Taura said that I had touched on something that was beyond the pale of reason. So the alternative is what I'm doing now, which is this.

With trembling fingers, I "unfold" a few more scrolls.

Next I take out an empty bottle and a new knife. They have already been cleaned with perfectly pure water.

"Rust, don't do anything rash!

I respond to Taura's worried look with a wave of my hand.

"It's all right. "Purity, Liberation."

I confirm the activation of the scroll and plunge the new knife back into the healing wound.

The blood flows out of the open wound. As soon as the blood begins to flow out, I fix it firmly with Purification.

I catch the blood dripping from my arm with an empty bottle that floats on the surface.

"Okay, it's done!"

I hastily seal the bottle. I slowly hold it up to check its condition.

The clear bottle is half full of blood.

Relieved, I take out the potion and drink it in one gulp. My body was rapidly cleansed of the mushrooms.
