Chapter 326

Lucia, who had just thought that the restaurant looked a bit unique, became a little anxious.

Roan said, returning his frown to normal.

“Follow me.”

“Cough, ah, yes.”

Only then did Lucia follow Roan.

As I entered the building past the statues of Hyprin and Ness, the inside surprisingly looked like a restaurant.

However, there were only a few tables for eating, and most of the space seemed to be hidden behind walls.

And at the counter, a handsome old man with white hair and a long beard was dozing off in a chair.

Flash─

Even so, as soon as the two people came in, they gave a sharp look that was different from their appearance.

As soon as the old man saw Roan and Lucia, he screamed.

“You guys! How dare you tell me where this is!”

‘Where am I…’ … .’

Isn’t it a restaurant?

Lucia remained silent without answering.

It was natural for customers to come to the restaurant, but I was very embarrassed because it seemed like they were going to kick them out.

“Ah, I’m just bothered by those people who come in without knowing what to do….”

The old man even began to walk briskly, holding the cane that had been leaning on the counter, as if he was really planning to kick the two out.

‘Wow, you actually corrected it even more.’

Of course, Roan, who knew the old man’s character well, was not surprised.

“Cough, Roan.”

Lucia coughed lightly and then stepped forward, calling out to Roan.

It meant that he could handle it himself.

‘Of course not.’

It was none of Roan’s business how Lucia ran amok where he wasn’t looking.

You’re with Roan and you touch a merchant in the business district?

I couldn’t allow dirt to get into my eyes.

How many more vicious rumors will spread about Roan?

Luciya: It might end with, ‘Ah, that’s because he’s a warlock.’

Wouldn’t Roan be like, ‘Wow, Dark was a person I can’t deal with?’

‘… … ‘If you reveal that you are a true warlock, won’t your image actually improve?’

After thinking bitterly for a moment, Roan spoke to the old man.

“This friend here is a patient.”

“Huh?”

Then the old man who was about to swing his cane opened his eyes and looked at Lucia.

A robe and mask draped over a small figure.

Even the unique breathing sound.

“hmm…….”

The old man watched Lucia quietly.

“Tsk, how can you tell if it’s covered up like that? Anyway, I can roughly understand it. It’s terrible, it’s terrible.”

The old man shook his head slightly as if he felt sorry for Lucia.

Lucia looked back at Roan.

‘You’re saying this isn’t a ward?’

Even though he didn’t say a word or show his eyes, his intention was roughly conveyed.

Roan nodded and said.

“This person is a master of medicine and nutrition. He currently runs a restaurant.”

“Hoo, do you know me?”

The old man seemed more surprised that Roan knew about him than that Lucia was a serious patient.

In this world where holy magic can cure people, medicine and pharmacy similar to those on Earth were not that famous or respected.

─ What? Why do I had to cut open my stomach when I had a problem with my intestines? On top of that, do I need long-term care?

─ Can’t I just use holy magic to heal?

─ What? If that’s not enough, you had to make a herbal decoction and eat it for a month?

─ Can’t I just use it as an adjunct to healing holy magic?

… … To be honest, there wasn’t much merit.

So it was often treated as a folk remedy used only by slash-and-burn farmers living in remote areas without priests.

It was a clear study that was clearly being studied here as well.

Rather, warlocks who could not enjoy the benefits of holy magic used it secretly.

And this old man in front of me was a top name in his field on the continent.

‘Uiseon (Medicine Hiti).’

Like most masters in a field, Hiti was also very proud, so he opened this place with the intention of opening a restaurant if his medical skills were not utilized properly.

… … However, because of his pride, he did not accept anyone as a guest unless he was a patient.

If it weren’t for Harden’s consideration, it would had already gone bankrupt due to management problems.

“Did the principal send you?”

Hiti looked at Roan and Lucia with great suspicion.

Sometimes, if someone around Harden was sick, he would send them here instead of the ward.

In fact, it can’t be said that there was absolutely no intention to pick on the patient, but as long as we both like each other, that’s it, right?

Roan shook his head.

“no.”

“Then why did the real patient come here?! No, how did you know?!”

Hiti got angry as if telling him to say something sensible.

‘What are you saying…? … .’

He was an old man who was harder to please than I thought.

When Roan and Lucia were not saying anything.

The old man stared at Lucia a little longer, then clicked his tongue and said.

“But we can’t throw the patient away. Come in here.”

Roan said to Lucia as he followed the old man to the table.

“See, I said it was a restaurant.”

“……?”

Lucia tilted her head.

‘I don’t think it’s worth saying that confidently… … .’

No, after talking to him, it didn’t feel like a restaurant anymore.

Judging by the circumstances, you can tell that the old man was well-versed in medicine.

That had nothing to do with being so rude to guests.

To be a little more honest, I was surprised how they were still in business.

… … As expected, Lucia’s insight was almost accurate.

Lucia chose a quiet seat as far away from the window as possible and sat down.

Even with my entire body covered, the sunlight was a bit burdensome.

However, the old man who was watching him got angry again.

“What if I just sit down!”

“Cough… yes?”

Lucia couldn’t understand why Hitty was acting like that.

Well then, thank you. Should I say hello and sit down?

Hiti said, waving his staff.

“You don’t have to wash your hands before sitting down, hands!”

“……ah.”

Only then did Lucia stand up from her slumped position.

In the empire, awareness of personal hygiene was not yet well established.

The concept of washing hands before eating was also not very popular.

“Mr. Roan—?”

Lucia called Roan to remind him that he had to wash his hands and sit down.

Shoot ─

Roan was already familiarly washing his hands at a nearby sink.

Taltal─

Roan, who washed his hands thoroughly, looked at Lucia and said slightly pitifully.

“I have to wash my hands and eat. I’m not feeling well already.”

“???Ah, crunchy! Yes….”

Lucia was speechless and just nodded and washed her hands.

Did he even know that the owner would get angry if he didn’t wash his hands?

Meanwhile, Hiti looked at Roan and nodded in surprise.

“Well, there was at least one guy in this school who had the bare minimum of concepts.”

“Nothing much to say. Thank you.”

Roan nodded and sat down.

Then, after wiping the table clean with the wet towel provided nearby, he placed the spoon rests on both sides and neatly placed the dishes.

“hmm!”

Hitty sounded very satisfied.

As a student of medicine, he had only met people who did not think of hygiene as much as the dirt on their toes.

Disinfect the wound area and you’ll be asked, ‘Yes? ‘Can’t I just use holy magic?’ isn’t that the case?

If you tell them to cook their food well because they can get food poisoning, they say, ‘Yes? Then wouldn’t it be okay to use holy magic?’ Isn’t that right?

These priests just cry out, “holy magicholy magic,” without knowing that the prevention of all diseases came from thorough personal hygiene!

In particular, since Akerandir was a holy place, this trend was even more severe.

When I was told not to rely solely on holy magic, I still vividly remembered how I got angry at people who tried to accuse me of blasphemy.

“What is the student’s name?”

Hiti asked and Roan answered politely.

“This is Roan d’Arc.”

“Oh! Darc! Dark!”

Hitty slammed her cane on the floor and nodded loudly.

Roan asked, just in case.

“Do you know anything about the Darc family?”

In my experience, older and well-established namesakes usually had ties to the Darc family.

Then Hiti answered as if it were obvious.

“no?”

“…….”

“It’s just a famous family, so I pretended to know them.”

“Ah, yes. It is a famous family.”

Roan roughly agreed with a cold expresSion.

Maybe that kind of reaction was normal.

If there had been some connection this time, I would had been a little disappointed as to why I couldn’t find out anything while playing “God Anne de Bill.”

“But why are you asking others about your family?”

“There are circumstances.”

“Well, it’s cold. Well….”

Hiti grumbled a little and came over to where Roan and Lucia were sitting.

Then he suddenly grabbed Lucia’s wrist.

“Cough!!”

Coo coo coo ──!!!

Lucia, startled, instinctively unleashed a lot of dark magic.

As a warlock, it was natural to react like that when someone touched my body out of nowhere.

“Arthur. Do you think I’ve seen warlocks once or twice?”

“……!”

However, Hiti waved his hand without blinking and distracted Lucia’s dark magic.

That alone was enough to see that Hiti was no ordinary old man.

“It’s called the pulse. You have to check your body’s condition to prevent the medicine from becoming poison.”

Then he turned his gaze to Roan with a wondering look.

“You didn’t dare bring me here to give you poison, right?”

A good pharmacist was also a good poisoner.

If Hiti had his way, it would had been possible to kill even the greatest Namedra in an instant.

“Ro, Mr. Roan…?”

Lucia was startled by Hiti’s words and looked at Roan.

Roan shook his head.

“Is that possible?”

“Tsk, I thought it was impossible that the guy who lost his family to the warlocks brought a warlock, but it’s not funny.”

““… … .””

Roan and Lucia were at a loss for words at the same time.

‘Was it really what you expected?’

Anyway, the Jinmaek ended in an instant.

“Tsk, tsk, it’s so bad. It’s even worse than it looks….”

Hitty spoke as if she was very sorry and then took her hand off Lucia’s wrist.

Roan went out first, fearing that Hiti might want to check his pulse as well.

Hitty’s pulse was another detection method, so I didn’t know if my identity would be discovered.

“I don’t need to get drunk.”

“Well, it looks healthy. Still, it’s better to check it out in order to make health food that suits your body.”

“Geonmu ().”

“…What?”

“Please make it so.”

“…What on earth are you doing, you bastard?”

Hiti looked at Roan with considerable suspicion.

‘God Anne de Bill’s constitution classification method using the heavenly scale and the Bagua.

It felt similar to the Sasang medicine of Oriental medicine.

I also roughly(?) studied Roan because it had some interesting aspects, and from what I remember, characters like Roan were Geonmu.

The rarest and most difficult type, but with many large figures.

Hiti was also able to do a simple classification without having to check the pulse.

‘You mean you don’t know anything?’

In his opinion, Roan had the right dry radish constitution.

Roan said with a shrug.

“Isn’t it common sense?”

““… … ?””

This time Hiti and Lucia stared at Roan.

‘‘Well, that’s not it, is it?’’

As mentioned before, Hiti’s medical skills were one of the few in this world.

It’s amazing that he knew even a little bit about such medical techniques, but he even knew how to classify the Heavenly Order and the Eight Trigrams and even classifies himself?

This was impossible unless you had a fairly deep level of knowledge.
