　We had successfully approached the forest near the royal capital. It was close to where we had first met Taura.

　Thanks to Loa's far-sightedness and Ary's future vision, we had successfully avoided all enemy encounters after leaving the village of Toma.

　However, this will become more difficult as we get closer to King's Landing.

　Unfortunately, the potions are not infinite, and considering the contingency, it would be a bad idea to rush into the city at this point.

　After this break, I was waiting for the right moment to start a conversation.

　As it is, activate Purify and Combine intermittently. In the central part of the water sphere, the separated hydrogen and oxygen are immediately combined.

　At the center of the sphere, a series of small flickering lights are produced.

　A muffled popping sound is heard.

　The energy generated by the small explosion from the combination of hydrogen and oxygen was raising the temperature of the water.

　I throw the tea leaves into the water.

　The tea leaves are stirred in the water ball. The water slowly turns color.

　I take out a tea strainer from my backpack and pour it into everyone's cup.

"Yes. Here you go."

Thank you very much.

　─ I guess something warm is the best way to soak up the warmth when drinking under the traveling sky.

　The temperature is not that low, but we are traveling at a high speed with the hippopotamuses. The headwind alone is enough to take away some of our body heat.

"The rose tea we had before was good, but this is quite good too.

　Taura holds her cup with both hands as she drinks and gives her impressions.

"A waste of alchemy. But it's delicious."

　That's pretty harsh Roa.

"You see, when you light it, it smokes. I didn't want the enemy to find it.

It was flickering.

"Well, okay. A little. But with all the trees around, it should be okay."

　While I was having this exchange with Loa, Ary came in to talk to me.

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

"Master Rust. Is there a reason why you are taking the trouble to pause here?"

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

　I am impressed by your considerable insight.

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

"Yes, actually, that's what this is about."

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

　I thought it would be a good idea and took out what I had prepared.

"It's an anabolic drug I prepared last night.

　He takes out four solid-type medicines in his palm and shows them to everyone. They are about the size of a pinky fingernail.

"Anabolics? What kind of effect does it have?"

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

　Peering in, Taura asks.

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

"If you drink it, the mushroom parasites will fool your enemies into thinking you are one of them. How does it work?

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

Please omit that part. Master Rust."

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

　Ary stops me with a smile.

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

"Yes. Okay, just a word of caution. First of all, there is a time limit to the effect. Also, it may not be effective against enemies who are close to the demon tribe. Also, the more you drink, the higher the probability of side effects. And most of all, I can't say for sure about any of the precautions because I haven't tried it yet."

　I tell him with my other hand, counting on my fingers. Then I slowly look at everyone's face. Strangely, no one looks worried.

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

　I feel like asking them a question.

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

　Are they really willing to follow me after taking a potentially dangerous drug?

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

　We could still go back to Harbaughton if we wanted to.

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

　But I quickly reconsider. I should not leave the decision to them. All I have to do is to ask them to follow me and to fulfill my responsibility to them.

"Rust is going to drink this and go to the capital, isn't he? Are you going to drink it here?"

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

"Yes. That's the plan."

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

"I see."

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

　With that, Taura took the anabolic drug from my hand and put it in her mouth with a natural movement.

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

　Loa and Ary also looked at each other and took the anabolic drug in their hands and put it in their mouths.

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

　The last bit left in my hand.

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

　I took it into my mouth, ready to swallow myself and the three people in front of me together.
