　As if it had multiplied, a core similar in shape to the original magic stone was generated.

　It is a temporary core made of a potion.

"Kalene! It's not that dangerous, but you might get wet.

"What, a rabbit? Cute ......," mutters Aari's voice in the background.

"I'm thinking of calling it a potion rabbit."

　As if in answer to my voice, the potion rabbit jumps and splashes around on the ground.

　Kalene answers, touching her wet bangs.

"I see. A rabbit made of potions. It seems that when it touches people, it gets covered with potions, but the ground doesn't get wet.

Yes. But as a life form, it's more like a subspecies of slime, so I'm not sure if it can be called an alchemist.

　Meanwhile, one core after another is being replicated. The cores form a body, and the potion rabbits come pouring out of the barrels.

"Portion Rabbits. Please!"

　Hearing my call, all the potion rabbits leap at once and head for the outside of the gate.

　That's when it happened. For some reason, one of the potion rabbits begins to leap in a different direction.

　One of the soldiers that Kalin had brought with her was ahead of them. Everyone's reactions are delayed by this sudden turn of events.

　The potion rabbit jumps at the soldier. The potion rabbit's body immediately turns back into a potion and soaks into the soldier's body.

　Kareen shouts, her face tightening with curiosity.

"This potion rabbit is designed to automatically check the status of the human(s) and pounce on those who need it. This way, we can deliver the potion to the person who is being controlled by the black mushroom parasite, or to the injured person.

"Well, what about him?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, he must have been a parasite. Maybe he was passing information to the enemy on the inside.
