Vol 1 Chapter 10 (1/2)
Episode 10 ：Kuīro ●
I was playing the Monster Girl Quest Paradox RPG trial. Good stuff. Like I said before, I will resume RPG maker projects after volume 1 of Elf Tensei is translated by me. But I might get some time in on those during X-mas time and get a few maps translated. Himekis.h.i.+ ga Cla.s.smate can be bought online and downloaded as a pdf from the many official sites the benefit of it being an 18+ novel and available on dlsite. If someone would help rip the text out for me in later volumes 2+ in the far future when I need them once I get the translations to that point, it would be great That would probably be something I will need in 2 years. You can forget this for now, you can help with this when the time comes raw providing and all. It seems that Elf Tensei main story will probably conclude after 6 volumes and a new series that will act as the sequel set 30 years later with the child of Syril as the protagonist. I will be translating that too, don’t worry. I probably wont release them until I finish Volume 6. Chronology and all. I will try to update the faqs and terminology page for elf tensei. I will mostly fill it with the magic spells he uses. After adding a note for its usage in the beginning in the chapter, you may look at it if you see a spell that is used and I had not added a note to what the actual meaning is and not the Romanji. I leave spells in their p.r.o.nunciations because it looks better, and the spells are self explanatory when they are used since this author is awesome. Anyways, enjoy.
Episode 10 ：Kuīro ●
Since Lucie had finished working the fields and came back, we had lunch together. Today, a few planning designs will be made, I went out to the forest in a place a bit away from the village.
Even if the harvest ends, it is to go to the field to facilitate next year’s planting.
The remaining roots in the soil is neatly removed and the land is leveled.
The seeds can be sown immediately after the arrival of spring, it is necessary since when winter comes the snow will pile up and proper work cannot be carried out.
It has cleared up well, the wind is blowing and it feels pleasant.
Lucie, though sitting down on the gra.s.s, had a maple leaf land on top of her head and because of this I laughed reflexively.
「Lucie, there is a leaf on your head」
「Oh, it’s true. The Maple Leaf is yellow. Is it the beginning of Autumn already」
「You are correct. And winter will be coming soon」
Lucie with a little reluctance released the maple leaf from her hand.
And then from an open mouth a small sigh was let out.
「The recent Syril being seen, I keep being surprised. Indeed, the work of a doctor is really possible too. Even if working in the fields, rumors of Syril are heard. The arm of the most rowdy of the village, Roelou, restored as good as new. Renatsu-san’s son who had a fatal disease was cured with surprising swiftness」
「Because it is easy treatment. That is about how it is」
「If it is the current Syril, any illness or injury could be cured」
Because Lucie said it with a serious face, I smiled wryly.
Even I am not omnipotent.
「There are plenty that can’t be cured. For example, the viral illnesses that the body’s immune system wont work against would be impossible no matter how much the struggle is. The treatment of the eyes, or loss of a body are hopeless. It is helpless when a broken bone has a complicated fracture. Fibers that are completely stretched and snapped can’t be restored. Cancer can never be cured. That is a cell mutation. And severe burns should be given up on」
Basically with my magic which only strengthens self recovery ability, is the reinforcement of the autoimmune function.
A simple wound and a simple fracture can be cured, the body’s immunity can even expel a virus like the common cold or flu, besides that would be impossible.
Because I have knowledge to some extent, and because of that something must be prepared in order to expand the range of feasible medical treatments, even so there is a limit to it.
「It is too difficult to understand what Syril means」
「gomen, gomen, but I don’t think I can cure everything. Therefore, You have to take care during daily life so as to not get sick」
Lucie looking puzzled tilted her head to the side, I said so with a cheerful smile.
「Apart from that, how is today’s lunch？」
So as to not let it cool, the cuisine was expressly put in an earthenware pot to be served in a deep dish and pa.s.sed to Lucie.
Because of deciding to eat outside on a whim, each pot that we had was prepared just yesterday, no choice but to carry it here.
「It is wonderful and very delicious. This is done the first time. What dish is this？」
「It is called Suiton soup. The dish is merely a soup with loosened wheat flour and the thin liquid produced by the deer das.h.i.+ 」
I also took some of the venison that was brought back home and broiled it.
According to Lucie, since it is the game I personally captured, just barely there are no moral violations that were made.
Also, it is a secret to Lucie, crops which may be discarded by the village mayor if discovered, only two wooden crates worth were pilfered. This is the hope of the village.
「Monyu Monyu, The food texture is a mystery. The flavor of the soup tastes good. Yeah, the suiton soup is good. It is delicious, and above all it is a conservative way to use flour」
「Well, I noticed that there. It is important to properly use wheat and salt」
The suiton soup, because it wheat diluted with water, it will fill the stomach with a small amount. The soup is well matched and though it has light seasoning, it is very satisfactory.
Today’s suiton soup, not to mention the wheat, but the salt was also was skimped on quite considerably.
The Soup Stock comes out well with the deer bone and also partly from the mountain vegetables that were stewed together, wheat was poured in and suiton soup is made.
The seasoning is quite plain. Though it is a taste that can be eaten well in its own way thanks to the Deer soup stock and wild herbs, since the saltiness isn’t sufficient it isn’t completely satisfactory.
「Lucie, let’s add salt after all」
「Not allowed, there won’t be enough until the next distribution」
The food in this village is all stored in the Mayor’s warehouse, it is distributed from there to each home. When the village had been receiving support supplies from the Empire, it was the easiest type of way for distribution. I have to re-examine this someday.
「Then in the next distribution of rations, we as people with distinguished merit could ask to receive little extra」
「Such a thing isn’t really liked. We are eating enough to be full, somebody in the village will have to endure a smaller amount. In that mood, It is not possible to eat it deliciously」
「Lucie is such a child」
I smiled. A child who is thoroughly honest and gentle. Because it is the polar opposite of me, I guess this is why I am so charmed.
「Thank you for the delicious meal. This afternoon I will be going out to the field again, but what will Syril do？」
「Soon I intend to do full scale weapons production」
「What kind of weapon is planned to be manufactured？」
「It is the Bow」
Upon hearing it, Lucie’s eyes stared out in wonder.
And she began to speak forcefully.
「That is impossible！ Even Syril’s father pulling the longbow couldn’t penetrate their armor！Every kind of strong bow, should not penetrate the armor. Let’s find another way」
The thing Lucie says is not wrong.
The large bow that my father the village’s best Archery Master used had an length of 160 cm……the Long Bow was used.
The Long Bow had power corresponding to its size. The Bow Strength(The Force necessary to pull) was as much as 45 kg.
The general bow strength of the bows used in Heisei Era j.a.pan for compet.i.tions is 15 kg, it has three times the strength.
The bow force of 45 kg is the maximum strength of a bow in the practical range which could be pulled by one hand.
And that even for Father the limit that the arrow could penetrate was the shoddy armor worn by underling soldiers, the armor worn by the Captains could not be penetrated.
Five years have pa.s.sed since then, the Imperial Steel manufacturing technology has further developed and that it wont penetrate even those of the underling soldiers.
「Nevertheless, it would be useless if it isn’t a bow. Don’t worry. I have properly thought it through. I won’t say something that can’t be done」
「Syril, May I believe in you？」
「Only to Lucie that I will not tell lies, a positive effort is being made s.h.i.+ne」
「The speech now instantly made the feeling of believing lost……」
