Chapter 20: 19

Adrian's face was somewhat moved.

No, I didn't mean that?

“I feel a bit stabbed in the back of the head. Ah, should I say it feels like I touched a very high-level problem?”

What the hell did I do, even a high-level problem comes up.

“It’s something philosophers always talk about. People should value the inside rather than the outside. But it’s easy to say, so no one has ever tried to put it into practice.”

Suddenly a philosopher appears?

I thought there would be no end to the story here, so I waved my hand and blocked Adrian's words.

“No, I didn’t mean to practice it.”

"But to go to a place where everyone in society is paying attention, wearing a colorless dress that wouldn't even be covered with a cat cushion."

“Go, a cat cushion?”

Then Adrian looked at me with a rather serious face.

“You are a warrior, Libe.”

“… … .”

“She is an enterprising and passionate woman.”

me?

It's not. I'm just a person who wants to live a normal life.

I just want to live a thin and long life, not the dew of the executioner.

I'm just a modern person who wants to return to reality sooner than that.

Since ancient times, there have been seven different ways to step forward and take the lead.

"A woman who can be so free from people's eyes."

No, I am a person who wants attention and hates attention at the same time.

“Libe, I was really touched by you. When she was little, she just thought she was a naughty girl. That's why you're so full of yourself."

“Oh, no. You must have misunderstood something.”

I was standing there dumbfounded, not knowing what to say, when my brother Oliver, who had gone to the study, approached me with a thick book.

“What are you two talking about so seriously?”

“Oliver, Libe is a wonderful woman.”

If I stay here any longer, I hurriedly covered Adrian's mouth.

“I saw you came to the prom!”

"really?"

“Yes, he was with a friend of mine.”

I didn't want to ask, but as I kept trying to stop the story from going astray, I couldn't help but bring up Leonie.

"friend? Well who is it? Meeting so many people at the ball.”

“Ah, then I might have misunderstood the person.”

It was fortunate that Adrian didn't ask persistently.

The topic has changed, and the conversation has been somewhat finished, so I guess I should get out of here in moderation.

“Then I'll just go. My friend is not feeling well, so I am going to buy him some medicine.”

“Are you going to the apothecary?”

“Before that, I’m going to buy my friend’s favorite dessert too.”

“Then go with me. I only came to get the book anyway.”

Adrian shook the book he was holding in his hand and smiled.

"It's okay. just me alone... … .”

“I also have something to offer dessert. It would be nice if Libe would pick one for me.”

“A gift?”

“It's kind of awkward for a man to go in alone and choose dessert. Can you help me?”

When I hesitated, Adrian lowered his fine, straight eyebrows and spoke again.

"Help me. I've just been to Mütten, so the only people I know are Oliver and Libe.”

Oliver was disgusted by Adrian's words.

“As I said beforehand, I will decline.”

As Oliver shook his head and stepped back, Adrian spoke to me in a timely manner.

“Please, Libe.”

In the carriage heading to the apothecary, Adrian was moderately pleasant and quite gentlemanly.

He spoke softly enough to not make the atmosphere awkward.

“Wow, really?”

“Yeah, that’s how kids play in Ostrin.”

“I think it would be fun just to hear it.”

Now that I think about it, your voice sounds pretty good.

In fact, even when I first met him, I was uncomfortable with the fact that he showed me mischievous words and told me stories that I couldn't remember.

'Since he's close to my family, it's better than being uncomfortable. Also, he said he was close with his older brother.'

By the time that friendship had built up to some extent, the carriage stopped in front of an apothecary on Jennington Street.

Upon entering, the smell of well-dried grass wafted in like mist.

"welcome."

The pharmacist, who was cutting medicines with a cutter in a corner, said a blunt greeting.

“What can I get you?”

He brushed his hands off and stood up and asked me.

I was speechless for a moment at the blunt and blunt voice somewhere.

Oh, did Leonie say it hurts?

Come to think of it, I've never been in pain anywhere.

I just said that I was not feeling well and had no energy.

Adrian looked at me as I hesitated to speak immediately.

“Libe, what kind of medicine did you come to buy?”

“Uh, so… … . I wasn't particularly sick, but I said I wasn't feeling well."

“So what medicine do you need?”

When the pharmacist asked again in annoyance, Adrian stepped out.

“When your hands and feet are cold and you have no energy, give me something to help. Oh, and the one that manages anxiety and has a calming effect.”

“I see.”

While the pharmacist turned around and took out the herbs, I quietly whispered to Adrian.

"thanks."

"It was nothing."

Somehow, if I had come alone, it seemed that I would have just said anything and brought a strange herb.

It's good that you came along.

The pharmacist turned around and opened and closed the wooden drawer, laying down the dry grass he had pulled out on a sheet of white paper.

“Boil it and eat it as you divide it like this.”

"Yes, Thank you."

It was when I nodded my head and tried to take out the money.

"Wait a minute."

Adrian spread the herbs on the white paper a couple of times with his fingers and frowned.

“Isn’t this Moini grass?”

"Yes?"

“It is an herb that prevents infection and prevents decay. You want me to boil this and eat it?”

At Adrian's words, the pharmacist put on a puzzled expression.

uh what Aren't you supposed to eat this?

“Oh, there are so many medicinal herbs in our house… … , ha ha ha! Wait a minute, wait a moment, sir.”

Then, after searching for a while, he came up with another herb.

But this time, Adrian had a disapproving face.

“Isn’t the Pavel mushroom a medicinal material used to lower fever? Did I ask for antipyretics?”

“Oh, sorry. Bring it back, bring it back.”

“Okay, bring the dried Azeldino and Poleo flowers.”

“Yes, yes, I understand.”

The pharmacist brought out the herbs a couple more times following Adrian's instructions while sweating profusely.

“Hey, here you go.”

The pharmacist held out the medicine with a respectful face.

Adrian inspected the herbs carefully this time with a very sharp eye. While he was examining the herbs, the pharmacist put his hands together and kept an eye on Adrian.

“It would be good to change the drying method. The roots are less dry.”

“Ah, yes. sorry."

“I have nothing to apologize for, and I have to apologize to the people who use this store.”

“… … .”

“Don’t just sort things out just because it’s annoying, and classify them accurately according to their efficacy. Do you understand?”

"Yes, I understand."

When I came out of the apothecary after a while, I gave a thumbs up and nodded slowly.

“How do you know more about herbs than the pharmacist? It's amazing. Thanks to that, I was able to live properly.”

“I’m just a little bit interested. Libe said that, so it's worth paying attention to.”

“Then why didn’t they give me the right medicine?”

“At first, I thought I was just giving it roughly, but later on, it seems like I didn’t know exactly.”

Adrian's face was deliberately serious.

“I don’t think I can leave it like that. It is also a question of how they have been selling drugs until now.”

I expressed agreement with a silent nod.

"I'm going to tell the Grand Duke and suggest that the pharmacist on Jeniton Street be disqualified."

I nodded my head endlessly, but I hesitated when the Grand Duke came to his mouth, but I clenched my fist without showing any sign.

"Right. It's terrible that someone you don't even know has been selling drugs.”

Didn't I almost feed him the dressing for his wounds!

As I flushed my anger with a flushed face, Adrian glanced down at me and laughed, covering his mouth with the back of his hand.

“Do you know what to do when you are so angry?”

“What is it?”

He smiled, showing sharp teeth.

Then-

 

“Eat something sweet.”
