Ceremony of Saint Summoning

The ceremony that has been handed down to Slantania (Surantania) kingdom from ancient time.
A long time ago, the kingdom is covered with the miasma, the time when demon run rampant, a maiden appear out of nowhere.
Using that art, the demon are being cleaned by the maiden, peace are brought to the kingdom.
People called her a saint.
The miasma appearto be something that divide and manifest near each other.
Although detailed theory is not know, it seem that when the miasma density reach a certain level or above will become demon, if the miasma thick then the strength of the demon born from it will proportion to that too.
The miasma in the surrounding area become thinner when a demon is defeated, miasma can be prevented from thickening more than necessary by keep defeating demons.
But in every several generations, peoplesaidthat there were times when the miasma thicken speed exceed the speed at which demons are defeated.
At times like that, I heard thatthe maiden who became saint in the ancient kingdom appear.
The art which use by the saint is considerably strong, the demon seemto bequickly annihilated.
Thanks to this method, it seem that the speed that the miasma thicken and demon being defeated become balance.
I heard that there were also report about time when there is only saint, the miasma in the surrounding do not thicken according to the theory.
However.
It is nature that saints are always appear but, for only once, there was a time when saint did not appear no matter how dense the miasma were.
It is said that the sage at that time inspect all the method and construct this ceremony to summon the maiden who become saint from other side.

What a nuisance thing, to be summoned by such a ceremony.

This ceremony, is unfortunately such a ceremony that only been performed once from long time ago, couldsaint really be called, it seem that it is something that cant be understand without trying it.
However they said the sage of that time were great, we were really being summonedyo.
Even two people.
But saint only appear one person per era it seemne.
The summoning this time is, why two?
Compare withthe past, because this time appearto be in a considerable awful situation, maybe the number of people increase proportion to this?
What a mystery.

Up until this point, it is a story about Ceremony of Saint Summoning that I knew during this one month.
And, currently, Im living in the herbal research institute next to the herbal garden in the royal palace.
Eh, I do not live in the palace.
I live in the research institute.

After that ceremony, the red hair-kunthat came into the room is undeniable the first prince of this kingdom it seem.
That first prince-samadoesnt give an eye to me, nothing but just another girl, Misono Aira-chan, that he talking with, only Aira-chanthat he left the room with.
Well.
Me is in my twenties, Aira-chanon the another handis only in her late teens,
When you ask who have closer age to the prince-sama, of course Aira-chan.
Furthermore the fluffy light brown hair, the translucent white skin and pink cheek, a little droopy eyes that make other want to protect, an adorable girl just like a lovely lily.
Since Im busy,I dont observe too much with other think so my unkempt hair tied in bundle, unhealthy white skin, it is presumptuous to compare her witha glasses woman whom dark circle have hungunder hereyes for many years.
I couldnot notunderstand why they only have eyes for Aira-chan.
Howeverne, I think he has a good courage to ignore the existence of the one he summoned without even asking.
The knightand the robe people in the surrounding too are pretty taken aback by the prince ability to ignore, I was pretty confuse when I notice that I has been left behind.
I dont know how to deal with it when being splendid ignorene.
Because there is no help being idiot like that, I grasp the neck of arope person nearby, questioning things about the ceremony.
Following the story, it seem I was somehow summoned to the different world, I understood that there isnt a method to return to the former word at the moment.
And Iafter hearing the necessary things, of course I would get mad, it is decided that I will leave the country by foot.
To begin with lets get out of this room first, get out of the royal palace where the room exist, get out of the capital where the royal palace exist, finally I will try to go to the neighbor country.
Anyway, I absolutely not want to be here.
I separate my hand from the neck of the robe person after finished hearing necessary things, when Im outside of the room, a panic knight chasing after my back.
The knightchasing after me stop me, lead me though the room somewhere at the royal palace, I am drinking the black tea served by the maidwhile waiting.
At last hefinal come, the person seem to bethis country high rank official, moreover to be well-informed about this country, I heard about something concern the situation of me being left behind.
From the circumstance of outside I heard at that time, I was very grateful to the knight who stopped me.
No matter how you look at it, the grassland is fill with demons swaggering around when you leave the capital, it takes one week to go to the neighbor country by carriage, thief may appear along the way and so on, to be frank for me who dont understand much about this world to reach the neighboring country is, clearly impossible game.
I think the me who tried to challenge an obviously impossible game was having a considerably amount of blood raised to my head.
Afterwards, Iwho calmed down a littlePlease enjoy the palace for a whileaccording the word of the official , lived in the palace for a while.
Next approximately two weeks.
The first three days were, still good.
I was nervous at the thought that it is necessary to become accustomed to this world.
However, I gradually became unable to endure the spare time ne.
Certainly living necessary are guaranteed but, that leave only play ne?
As expected I became unable to withstand the free time, at least how about strolling then, when I was wandering around the garden in the royal palace, what I found was an herbal garden.
There are also herbs and aroma therapy use for relieving the works stress in Japan, the herbal garden was very interesting.
The planted medical herb also have the same appearance as the one planted in Japan, when I was wonder whether the vegetation are not different from the earth, a voice called me.
When I turned around, impressive pupil and hair of jade color, there stood a friendly looking young man (ikeman).
The voice that called me belong to a researcher in the herbal research institute next to the herbal garden.

Do you need something from the research institute?
No, I just walked by. I think it is interesting, and only looked

Did he interested in me who said that the herbal garden was interesting, the researcher just like that, explained the medical herb in the vicinity.
Lavender, Rosemary, Angelica and so on, the medical herb with name that are not different from Japan were, having the almost unchanging effect as well.
During the explanation HP potion can be made with this medical herb such a thing, is this a game is the word I wanted totsukkomihere and there.
And when I received the explanation of the medical herb, time passed by while I showed an amazement look, I decided to return to the palace because evening was approaching.
Please come again ne is how kind his gentle words are, I become to hang around everyday, finally I came to the point of living in the research institute.
Is not what happening.
Since it become troublesome to frequently going to the herbal garden from the palace, I just ask that I want to live in the research institute.
Because it is called the royal palace, the garden is large endlessly.
It takes 30 minutes from the palace to the herbal garden on foot.
Although I went to the herbal garden for 1 hour everyday, the story I heard from the researcher in the research institute is very interesting, for the sake of having one more hour to attend then I would be able to hear more story is what I thought.
To the maid in the room when I first come to this world 14 days before, I asked for the high rank official that receive me which I met at the beginning, when I consulted to him the purpose of me wanting to change the room, the story was accepted easily.
When I heard afterward, from the head of research institute it seem that there had been some secret talk.
Thus I, got a room in the research institute, and a job called medicinal plant researcher.
Those who dont work dont eat.
As a condition to get a room in the research institute, I will work at the research institute.
Although I was a little hesitant to make hobby a job, day after day, since I thought it is better than being absentminded in the palace, I decided to accept the condition.

Still, what a strange effective

Muttering with the HP potion I made on one hand, is Jude ( juudo) the researcher that first called me in the herbal garden.
The HP potion which I made while learning from the colleague in the research institute, seem to have better performance than the potion that appeared on the public market.
About 5 times more it seem.

Although I only make just like what you taughtne

I put the medicinal herb and pour water in the pot, by pouring magic power while boiling potion is made.
Although potion is divided in ranks: low-grade, intermediate, advance and so on, this ranking is decided by the medical herb put in.
However, just by putting in the chosen medical her do not mean high rank potion can be made.
Delicate magic manipulation is needed to make high rank potion, the possible rank of production is decided by the production skill of the creator.
Although the medical herb which become materials are also costly thing, the number of human capable of making are scarce too, high rank portion are, being sold at the price which cant be used readily it seem.
Well, in the first place, high rank potion are something that no one other than noble and royalty can buy it.

Color too is undeniable of lower grade HP Potion, I wonder why?
Who know, maybe because my skill are good?
Nn, although I think it do not matter much. Your pharmacy skill, how high is it now?
Wait a minute. Status

When Status is recited, a semi-transparent window which can only be seen by the user appear in front of me, my status is displayed there.
This is one of the life magic that has been taught by the colleague on the day I began to work as a researcher.
Following the potion, magic is somehow, although I think it like game more and more, it is unmistakably reality.
Magic is usable and, can be understood from that magic is necessary for potion to be made, even I have magic.
Along with the summoning, my body seem to stop being that of earthling.
Because the magic power that Im unable to feel while on earth, can now be feel inside my body.

Battle skill:
Saint attribute magic: Lv.

Production skill:
Pharmacy: Lv.8

Currently, it is level 8da ne

After confirmed the status, when I report the level of pharmacy skill, Jude inclined his head while groaning uun.

8 you say, you cant create intermediate level yetda yo naa
Well, isnt it good whatever it is? It not like the effective become lower
No no no, because it is not at the level of margin that can be let slide! To clarify such a thing is our job too dont you think

I thought thatit is good as long as the effective is good but, because Jude said, to research such a mystery phenomenon, to investigate the cause is the work of researcher too he scold.
It cant be helped, I continue to get along with Jude investigation.
Changing the quantity of material, and alter the amount of poured magic power, many potion are made for experiment purpose.
Thus my day passed by continue making potion.
