'Hey, Dusty, how are you?Huh?Hey, you've gotten bigger while I haven't seen you for a while. I think they've grown about two sizes.It was only a pinch before this, but now it's about a handful. Huh~, time flies. What do you mean, you've become a little more beautiful?Are you in love?Maybe you're in love?Do you have a love sickness?
'You seem to have a different disease, though.
'Oh, dear!

I'm not sure what to make of that. It's a good move for a ...... recluse.

I'm not sure how long you've been in there.
I'm not sure if you've seen this before, but I'm sure you've seen it now.
'How, how, how did you get in here?
'No, the door was open as usual.
'If the door was open, would they come in by themselves?
'Of course they would. It's a drugstore.
'Are you a customer?
'I'm a customer!

This is, as they say, Regina's house. It sounds good to say that it's the head office of the Pharmacists Guild ......, but it's not that big of a deal because Regina is the only one who belongs to the Pharmacists Guild.
It's just an ordinary apothecary with little sunlight.

It's a normal apothecary with little sunlight, but the unique scent of this medicine is a little calming and I like it. Don't tell anyone I said ......, though.

'You should at least clean it. You're dealing with medicine.'
'Idiot. I do that a lot. Cleanliness first. I'm not negligent about hygiene. I clean it up every day!...... except for this one corner.
So, why don't you just do that one?
'When there's no more dust, who should we talk to?
'First of all, don't talk to Dusty. ......'

I might have to make regular visits to this guy's house. ......

'So, what do you want today?Just so you know, I'm not giving you Dusty.'
'No, thank you!

I feel like calling 100 number 100 number.
d*mn ......, they're not going to travel to another world, are they?

'You said you were a customer, but if you're a drug addict, isn't that where you went to get your refill the other day?
'Oh, no, I'm sorry. I didn't mean a customer who came to buy medicine, I meant a 'visitor' who came to ask you for a favor.
'...... I'm not really into eroticism... ......'
'Why are you assuming that my request is erotic and then proceeding to talk about it? And don't lie to me.

Half of Regina's body is made up of rotten pornography.

'I'm here to ask you to participate in the tournament.
'No, you can't!

That was a very strong and immediate answer.

Regina turned her back to me, squatted down on the floor, put a cushion on her head, pressed it tightly against her head with both hands, and started shaking.

I'm not sure what to do, but I'm going to do it. When I went to the Sunlit Pavilion to restock the medicine, the manager was in a really good mood, so I asked him, "What's wrong?Did something good happen to you? ...... That was a mistake in the first place. ...... After that, the manager looked very happy and said, "Why don't you join us, Regina? After that, the manager was very happy to say, "Would you like to join us, Regina?" After that, the manager was very happy to say, "Oh, it might be bad for the manager if I refuse. ...... Well, I can just eat something. ......" I thought, "Sure, I'll join." I want to poison myself at that time. I want to poison myself!They were watching us so much!We were being watched so much!It's not like we're having dinner!It's not like we were having dinner!

Apparently, he was quite traumatized by being made to sit in front of the audience.

You can find a lot more information on this at .......

I'm not sure what to do.I'm not going to be in the game!
'We're not in.

You never ate a single bite of food in the first place.

'It's a gluttony contest. I want you to be there as a pharmacist just in case.
'...... as a pharmacist?'
'Yeah. You're the only one I can count on. Please.'
'............ I mean.'

Regina was silent for a moment, then asked in a cool voice.

'You want me to dope you up?
'No, I'm not!

What do you mean by doping gluttony?
Does that drug make you starve?If such a drug exists, I'll have it disposed of right there!



'Some people might get sick from eating too much, right?There's a few guys in our group who might be tempted to go crazy at a big tournament.
'Oh, that fox guy.
'Umaro is fine. He's only good for recklessness.'
'Yeah. That's a good position to be in, fox man.'
'Shall I include you in the mix?
'No thanks. I'm a girl.'
'Oh, that stuff that makes your hair shine.'
'Wakame seaweed, that's...' I like my miso soup. But that's not it!

The words came out in bursts.
I really don't need to worry about talking with this guy.
It's so easy here.

'Well, if that's the case, I'd be happy to help you out, but ............ there seem to be a lot of people ......'.
'You'll be fine with me, right?I'll protect you.'
'What?

Regina looks at me like a prairie dog that has sensed the presence of a predator.
She has eyes like a common marmoset.

'Are you saying that you ...... are aiming for that kind of thing?
'I don't mean anything by it. Just take it in stride.'

I just meant that if you're around me and you get sick from all the staring, I can take care of it right away.

'Well, that's a bit tasteless, isn't it ......?
'Then what do you want me to do?

I'm not sure what you mean by that.

In the event that you have any questions regarding where and the best way to get in touch with us, please feel free to contact us at .......

In the event that you're in a position to do this, you'll be able to do so with the help of your own personal consultant.
...... You son of a b*tc*.

'...... Regina.'

He shouted lowly and leaned towards Regina.

'What the hell ......, you suddenly sounded serious and then ............ to ...... what?I'm not sure what to do, but I'm going to do it.

In the event that you have any questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can contact us at the web site.
I lean in closer and push Regina to the edge of the wall, then put one arm on the wall.
It's a wall slam.

'Hey, wait a minute,......, don't take it too seriously,......'
'Regina. I need you. Just shut up and follow me. Stay with me until I say it's okay.'
'...... a little ............ and that's ......... ...'

Regina's eyes trembled slightly.
I tried to attack Regina in this way, imagining the kind of genre she might like. ...... It seems to have had an extraordinary effect.
I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's worth it.

......

What?

'Are you serious?
'What's that tsukkomi?

Raising both arms, Regina pushes my body away and runs away to a larger space.
I think her face is hot, and she's flapping her hands in the air.

'You're a blabbermouth, aren't you!Why are you listening to me so seriously?Are you a good boy?Are you a good boy?I'm just waiting for your advice!You know what I'm talking about!I'm not an amateur!

No, I'm an amateur. ...... What?Did you think I was a comedian?

'You're a codger!You're just what they say you are, aren't you?
'What kind of rumors are going around?
'If you use polite language, it's 'Mitarashi'!
'No, 'Mitarashi' is different.

Who's the dumpling, who's the dumpling?
They're not on skewers, and they're only children.

'I'm scared! I'm scared! As expected of a womanizer who goes around spitting on every beautiful woman in the forty-two wards.
'Who's spitting on whom?


I'm sorry.
Don't talk about me like I'm an uncontrolled womanizer.

'Too bad for you!No one can free my tits!
'Wow, ...... she's declared herself a bachelor for life. ......'
'......!What?...... I'm not a ............ person anyway.'



Well, if you don't go out, you won't meet anyone. ......
There aren't many people who can match the tension of this guy. ...... Me?I'm sorry, I'm just kidding.

'Well, ...... in the future, I'm going to be cared for in the sunny pavilion, so it's okay.
'Hey you!

Don't bother Ginette.

'When I'm in the restaurant, I can serve you medicinal herbs.Eat and be healthy, medicine and food are the same.'
'Your medicines are all full of weird side effects. You can't feed that to your customers.
'Variety is good, right?

I don't want that kind of rich variety.
This isn't a training school for reaction comedians, sunny side up.

But there are plenty of things that are good for you as ingredients, even if they're not medicines.

Regina rifled through the wooden medicine cabinet by the wall.
'There it is,' said Regina, placing on the table an ochre-colored plant root similar to hineginger, turmeric.

'This is called turmeric,' she said. It's really good for you.
'There's also turmeric in this town, isn't there?
'What, do you know turmeric?
'Yeah. It's good to take before drinking, it's very useful in my hometown.

There's also turmeric, which is often used in cooking.
I didn't know that turmeric is the English name for turmeric until I was much older. Turmeric rice, turmeric drink, and other products with their own names were available.

'If you anagram the name, you can't put it on the table, though.

Don't make vulgar gags.
...... Is that what turmeric is called in Regina's country too?
What an unlucky plant this is,......

'Also, there's this.
'Oh, it's coriander seed.'
'That's great, me. I'm losing confidence.'
'I just happen to know it.

Coriander seeds are often sold as a spice in Japan.
When used as a spice, it is often called cilantro, but the fresh leaves are probably better known as pak choi.In China, it's called shanzhai, which means "fragrant greens. ...... Well, I guess pak choi is more famous.
I'm more familiar with cilantro.

I'm more familiar with cilantro, but the seeds and leaves have completely different aromas, and I like them both.
'I'm not a fan of pak choi .......'
'Well, it's unique, isn't it?

I can't help but feel the significance of the 'forced translation magic', as it can be understood by both cilantro and pak choi.

'Cilantro is excellent for dizziness, abdominal pain, detoxification, insect control and many other effects.
'I've heard that it was used as an aphrodisiac.

In medieval Europe, coriander was used as an aphrodisiac.
Well, Europeans are said to be aroused by body odor and the scent of sweat. ...... It's an aphrodisiac that's unlikely to work in Japan.

'Become erotic~!
'Stop it!Don't smack me in the face with the pak choi!It stinks!

Apparently, I call it cilantro when it's dried and pak choi when it's fresh.
Well, I'm sure Regina understands the same word, so there's no need to worry about it.

'Whoa!The effect of the aphrodisiac makes you look very erotic!
'You're born with a face!

I stroked my face with pak choi and it became more erotic. ...... With a claim like that, it won't even sell in the midnight mail order.

I'm sure you'll like it.Why don't you take a look at the other ones?There are a lot of them, but not all of them are used, right?Some of them don't see the light of day very often. Since you're here, why don't you take a look?

Regina runs happily to the medicine cabinet.
She's probably gathering all the ingredients to make the best medicine. But there's no one to show it to. There's no one to talk to. And since he's the only one who deals in herbal medicine, he can't talk to the people in the Pharmacists Guild either.

The major apothecary in this town is the apothecary guild, which is different from the apothecary guild, but they seem to be making medicines using something called "magic herbs" that have magical powers. It's like "herbs" or "potions" in RPGs. It's highly effective, but it's expensive, and the people of District 42 couldn't afford it.

Thanks to Regina, medicines have become more affordable and more accessible.

It wouldn't be wrong of me to at least talk to her.

'Mmmmmmmmmm...'

Regina hummed as she rifled through the medicine cabinet.
Surprisingly, she is a good singer. Or rather, her voice is clear and pleasant to the ear.
It's a soothing voice. It's a voice I'd like to hear as a lullaby.

It's fun to talk to Yashiro, isn't it?

...... Yashiro?


Did he just call me by my name?
It's usually 'myself'.

'......?

I'm not sure if she realized what she said, but Regina turned around and froze for a few seconds, looking like a lizard stuck to a shelf.
Gradually, her cheeks grew hot and her nose swelled.
When the water boils, it looks like steam is coming from his nose. If the water is boiling, you might hear steam coming from your nose.

'I think you're just imagining things!
'...... Well, at least I think it, so it's not a lie.

He's too nervous to say anything funny.
It's okay, it's okay. I'll pretend I never heard that.
So don't be so shy. ...... It's contagious. I hope you don't get embarrassed by me.

'Here!Look at this!

In a loud voice that clearly hides her embarrassment, Regina places the bottle she brought on the desk.
Inside was a slightly ochre-colored, coarse sand, or a brownish substance about the size of a chipped grain of rice.
When I pulled out the cork that tightly sealed the mouth of the bottle, I smelled a ...... nostalgic aroma.

'A chambarelé.
'What the hell are you, ...... right?

Another name for it is fenugreek, which may be more familiar to women.
It is said to beautify the bust line and can be found as a supplement in convenience stores and drugstores.
...... Also, along with maca and sponges, it is also sold as a tonic to give men the energy they need for the night.

I'm sure you're familiar with it. (deep meaning)'
'Please don't.'

It's clearly written on his face.

But...
This is a good thing I've seen.
If you're looking for something to help you get through the day, this is the one for you. ...... It's not a ...... tonic, okay?

It's not a tonic.
It's not a tonic.
'Do you even have maca?No. ......'
'I don't have any sponges, do I?
'Get away from there. Or your brain will rot away.'

I don't need it, that pill!

'No underwear or anything?'
'Yeah, I don't want ...... those drug-smelling pants.

You know what, why don't you just show it to me like normal?

'Well, yeah, but... Don't mix it up, okay?Really, this shelf is like my life, you know?You're the only one who can touch it.You're the only one who gets to touch my precious place, right?'
'Hey, stop that obscene and misleading statement.

I wonder if his eroticism will never run out.

The wooden medicine cabinet was old, obviously older than this building.
It must have been used before he came to this town. It's a massive shelf with a deep color tone, soaked with the smell of medicine.

'Then let's see it.
'I can't help it, just a little.

He seemed to be very happy.
It must have been something that no one was interested in until now.
Well, normal people don't get it even if you show them plant seeds.

'Oh, I knew it, cumin seeds!
'Oh, that's right. I like it too because it smells so good.
'Dried chili peppers.
'Be careful with that.It's really hot, so don't take a bite.
'...... I won't take a bite even if you pretend, okay?

I know how hot chili peppers are.
And it's a hawk's claw. That's not funny.

But as I suspected, it's all here.
All the spices I need.

'Bao Kri Air really is a spice capital of the world.'
'That's right. There's no such thing as a shortage.

I felt that nostalgic 'aroma' from the chambarelé.
If you mix cumin seeds with it, the aroma will be even deeper.
Turmeric, coriander, chili peppers and fennel: ............

With all these ingredients, you can make a good garam masala.
And with garam masala, you can make "that".

Yes. The first thing I thought of when I was trying to increase the variety of children's lunches.
A Japanese favorite that I haven't had since I came to this world.

Curry!



'Regina.'
'What's wrong with you, you look so happy.'

I pat Regina's head as she looks at me with a smile.

'You're a good woman, you know that?

You've got really good eyes.
You deserve praise.
I'll praise you, lavishly!

'............So, if you're going to do this, you might as well ask me to take care of ............ you. ......'

I'm not sure what to say, but I'm sure you'll understand.
I'm sorry about that. I can't take care of her.
Okay, I'll pretend I didn't hear that.

'I need a certain number of them, can't you get them somehow?
'I've got some here if you want to take them, but if you need more, it'll take a couple of weeks. ...... I've got a peddler coming from Bao Kri Air.
'What?Has the spice distribution started?
'Well, the incident happened quite a while ago. But there are some things that the peddler's guild here doesn't deal in, so I'll buy them through my personal route. It's cheaper that way.

She's a good girl.
Wouldn't she make a good wife?No, I don't think so. My best friend is just dust in a corner of the room. She wouldn't make a good wife. No, you won't.

I'll use the spices I have here, make a prototype, and get started on it in two weeks, after the ...... tournament. Well, maybe that's a good time.

'I don't know what you're planning to do, but if there's anything I can do, just let me know. We'll help you.'
'I see. Well then, go to .......'

To the reliable Regina, I'll tell her what I really want her to do.

'Take care of the first-aid team for the tournament.
'I'm not so sure about that. ...... There's a lot of people. ......'

f*ck you ......

It was one afternoon when I swore to myself that I would make him do it no matter what.
