C165: A New Medicine (2) At first, when Rudger boldly mixed all the ingredients together, those around him were astonished. ‘Are you going to use them without refining them? Did you go crazy?’ The assistant, who was watching him in order to prepare for an unexpected situation, seriously considered whether to stop him or not. Then, at the moment when he vaguely took his butt off the chair, the assistant had no choice but to stop because Rudger did something more. ‘Is that the polytan sap that was crushed and made into juice?’ After mixing all kinds of mana herbs together, Rudger poured polytan sap into it. Then something amazing happened. ‘The poison in the mana plants...... Is it falling out?’ The round mana plants were submerged under the sap, and their toxicity floated on the surface of the sap. It was a complete separation of poison, which can be said to be the biggest danger of mana plants. ‘I knew the polytan had detoxification effects, but what the hell.......’ There is no way that such effects can be achieved simply with sap. It must have been a different magical process. ‘Did that ingredient have that effect?’ Rudger placed dried leaves on top of the sap. Then, the toxicity floating on the surface was absorbed by the leaves and the green leaves were blackened. After removing all the toxins, Rudger took out the clumps of mana herbs with sterilized tongs and put them in a large bottle. The whole process was as natural as flowing water. Chris Benimore watched the scene as if possessed. His stare was obvious even though he was watching secretly. What Rudger did was something that Chris, who was knowledgeable in pharmaceuticals, could not understand. He used as many as 10 high-grade materials, herbs, and mana plants that were difficult to handle properly. ‘It’s definitely right to fail.’ If the mana in the herbs was to be operated in the wrong direction an explosion would have occurred but what he was worried about didn’t happen. So, did that mean that Rudger successfully made a medicine from those countless herbs? ‘No way. Obviously nothing dangerous has happened, but I don’t know if it works properly as a medicine.’ At the same time, Rudger finished the tableting process of the refined medicine and made a perfect pill. Chris stared at the medicine to check its surface. Properly made pills have a smooth and even surface, but in the case of failed pills, the surface is usually uneven or cracked. However, the pill made by Rudger was so neat that it was called perfect. ‘Success. He did it?’ Did he make it right with those dangerous ingredients? In addition, as if to prove that it was not an ordinary medicine, there was a subtle glow of magic in the translucent pill. Chris, who was about to ask how he made it, barely endured it, his pride wouldn’t allow it. ‘Come to think of it, the pills that he took were not sold on the market either.’ Did he make all the pills himself? He made his own medicine from scratch? “What is this?” The assistant, who couldn’t hold back his curiosity, approached and asked. The same was true for the other people who were quietly immersed in research around them as they waited for Rudger to answer. “It’s a pill to restore mana.” “May I check it out?” “Here you go.” The assistant, who immediately tried to find out the effects of the mana recovery pill, had no choice but to stop at Rudger’s dissuasion. “If you try to use it carelessly, you’ll suffer from mana overflow.” “What?” “In order to restore mana, other effects were not considered at all. I have only eliminated the toxicity that is fatal to the human body.” If an ordinary wizard eats, they will suffer from mana overflow. Even if they eat with all their mana depleted, it will be hard to withstand the overflowing power. The assistant, who heard the warning, looked incredulous. It is true that Rudger used a mixture of dangerous mana plants, but he was relieved the pill worked. It was then that Chris, who was watching the situation, stepped up. “He’s right.” “Sir Chris Benimore?” Chris came here often, so he was acquainted with the assistant. The assistant seemed quite flustered, as if he had not expected Chris Benimore to defend Rudger. He didn’t expect Hugo to make Devian do such a thing. Perhaps the problem was that he informed him of Rudger’s weakness. “I won’t say I’m not at fault. I may not have intended it, but I did something that was not aristocratic.” Chris readily admitted his mistake after realizing he had done something unbecoming. To be honest he still hated Rudger. At first, he was angry that he took away the specialized field he was going to teach. A fallen aristocrat threatening his position was a sensitive fact to Chris, because his family was already declining. An insolent fallen aristocrat was Chris’s assessment of Rudger but he changed his mind while watching him. Rudger is a fallen aristocrat who did not cling to his family and ignored Hugo’s proposal. He was contrary to himself, who tried to maintain the power of his family by increasing his connections with the nobles. He invented a new magic and taught it to his students. It was the opposite of himself who never wanted to reveal his family’s secret. When the students were in danger during the werewolf incident, he took the initiative and dealt with him. It was the opposite of himself who was deceived by Hugo’s claim that the culprit was a student. Rudger was Chris opposite and each of his actions touched Chris. He didn’t want to admit it, but he had to. He was unseemly jealous of this guy. “Take it.” Chris couldn’t bring the words out of his mouth, so he threw a reagent bottle at Rudger. Rudger, who lightly grabbed the bottle in the air, looked at what it was. ‘It`s a special medicine of our family. If you take the pill you made, you’ll get sick, so it’ll be better if you take them together.” Chris, who said that, clicked his tongue, feeling embarrassed for no reason. “Are you really giving it to me?” “Then, are they fake?” “I didn’t see you as someone who would give things so easily.” “.........Are you picking a fight?” “It’s pure admiration.” “Hmm. No matter what, I’m from the Benimore family.” The Benimore family has made medicine since ancient times. Medicine to cure people and medicine to cure diseases. Even though they were behind the times, what they wanted was dedication to people. That’s why Chris readily gave the drug to Rudger. No matter how jealous and hateful he may be, if the person is sick, he will gladly give him medicine. “I’ll tell you, I haven’t accepted you yet but I’m not the type to let people do such crazy things.” Rudger stared at Chris with an unexpected look. He understood how precious the medicine Chris gave him was. ‘Mana stabilizers are expensive and precious.’ It’s a medicine that’s close to a cure that puts out the urgent fire for a wizard who’s experiencing mana overflow. The ingredients are different and expensive because it is a product only for wizards, not for ordinary people but Chris Benimore readily handed it over. ‘At least he isn’t a noble who only built his pride.’ Of course, the image of Chris Benimore was still that of an unlucky aristocrat but at least he looked a little more like a real aristocrat than any other aristocrat. “Since you gave it to me, it would be rude to refuse. I’ll use it well.” When Rudger carefully packed the medicine bottle, Chris laughed and said nothing. Still, he seemed satisfied in his heart. As Chris was about to make his own medicine, he had no choice but to question Rudger’s unexpected behavior. “What are you doing now?” Rudger was drying the leaves that sucked the poison of the mana plants and breaking them into small pieces. Why not collect the crushed powder and carefully sweep it away? “Isn’t it a waste to throw it away?” Chris was speechless at the sight of Rudger answering in a dull tone. “Do you know how dangerous it is?” “I know.” “What?” “And actually this is the real deal.” “.......” Rudger is now planning to use even the toxicity from that lump of mana plants without throwing it away. Chris first felt something other than irritation at Rudger. It was pure wonder.
