Chapter 5 (2/2)

「Was that so? Isn’t it troublesome?」

「It is really not like that」

Amanda smiled

「People who live in this area, everyone had always done it that e are used to it」

A a trolley, she carried the water barrels inside the mansion

I thought

Water is undrinkable, huh

I returned the book to the archive, leave the mansion, and went to the nearby forest

I followed the road in my memory, if I’m correct, there should be a small river ahead

So I walked ahead Sylvia was following me TokoToko, from behind

The way inside the forest were uneven, so while saying ZehZeh, she looked like she was taking a hard time

「Sylvia You can wait at the mansion you know」

「U-Uu〜n I’ll come too」

「Is that so」

I loosened my feet

I waited for Sylvia, followed her pace, and went to the river slowly

We arrived at the River I scooped the clean-looking river with the palm of my hand

I smelled it, and looked at it intently

It looks like nothing strange, Pero I licked it

A sti taste penetrated my brain

「Pe,Pe,Pe!!」

I spit it in a hurry, the tip of ot numb

「Are you okay?! Lucio-sama」

「Pe,Pe, I-I’m okay」

It looked that clean, and didn’t s, but the instant I put it in my mouth it was like poison I spit it iue with ly remained

I see, looks like it was true that drinking this is impossible

If it’s like that, I took out a small cup from my pocket

I scooped water, and placed my palm on top of it

「Distillation」

I casted ht coated the cup, and KopoKopo the water seemed to boil

After a while, it subsides

「It should be alright with this……」

If the ic had an effect, it should’ve become 「Drinkable」 water

Distillation Reic that makes it purified water

It is probably the opposite version of distillation, a ic that removes the impurities and make it pure water

That’s why this should be drinkable……probably, but the one earlier also had no smell on it so it’s a little scary

While I was hesitating, Sylvia took it

And Gui, she drank it at once

「Sylvia?! What are you doing」

Surprised with Sylvia who suddenly did that, and looked what happens

After a while, Nicori, she smiles and looked at me

「……It was okay, it’s delicious」

「Hey hey, is it really okay?」

「Yes!」

Sylvia returned the cup to me

I scooped water one ain, and this time drank it myself

As Sylvia said, the water became drinkable properly It was pure water that has no taste

With Distillation, I confiric

With this……I could do a trade

It’s not like there are no water, it’s an area there has plenty of undrinkable water

With this ood trade
