Falma was observing the people in the mansion as there was no lessons from Ellen since she had a day-off.
Although Ellen was calling it the Divine Eye, he decided to call it the [Diagnosis Eye] as it has the ability see through the disease. It was an ability that n.o.body knows other than his teacher, Ellen. It was a secret even to Lotte.
The ability was activated by making a circle on his left hand fingers and check the patient through it, but the movement of making it was too conspicuous. The patient will make fun of him or think that he was crazy. He will certainly receive some ridicule from those higher rank than him. Therefore he made some experiment and found out that he was able to activate the Diagnosis Eye just by placing 2 fingers with his eye in between. The action was better but it was still a bit strange
Although he could see the marker in the human body, he needs to concentrate for it.
Her mother had a severe low back pain, so he made the same compress that he made for Ellen.
Her sister had weak bowels, so he made something like a laxative.
When he was walking around the mansion, he casually examined a person he met.
He found out it was a patient, since the Diagnosis Eye showed something glowing in the patient and he guessed the name of the disease. Before the diagnosis the color was light blue, it turned to white after he diagnosed it correctly. If the diagnosis was wrong, it will never turn to white for good.
Also, if he says the correct name of the prescription drug for the disease, the white light will go out. Then he will make the prescribed drug.
Although he himself had the training and the ability to diagnose, he is met sometimes with difficulty in diagnosing.
In Falmaâs previous life, he was a leading genius pharmacologist in the world. So it was only natural that he had medical knowledge, but he was no doctor. Therefore he maniacally names the diseases even though he has no knowledge of it. Still he diagnosed them patiently and prepares a medicine base on the symptom of the patient.
âHow do you do young master?â
âGood morning Marianneâ
Marianne was in charge of laundry today as they pa.s.s each other in the corridor, while she was carrying a large amount of laundry. She was a middle-aged woman who washes the clothes of his parents. Always cheerful, she was pleasant to talk in the laundry drying area. She doesnât have anything bad in her character.
âMaster Falma, please you have to go outside. The weather is beautifulâ
âYes it is Caesarâ
Caesar was a middle-aged man, who was a gardener and always speaks to Falma and suggest to go outside. He was healthy too.
(Everyone, living healthy is number 1)
Falma was nodding and grunting in agreement.
He also gave the servants appropriate medical examinations and gave them medicines for treatment using his material creation ability. The servants shed tears with joy. It was said that they had never receive any medicine from the Lord of the mansion.
Even now, Simon the Butler was fidgety when Falmaâs father pa.s.sed him by, seems like he had tooth decay.
Falma was putting the treatment for tooth decay on hold, as it needs further consideration.
âUnexpectedly, father has not seen everyone in the houseâ
He was chatting with Lotte while strolling through the courtyard in the mansion.
Falma believed that servants should be part of the family too, but it seems that itâs not a common practice in this world.
âBecause His Lordship is an apothecary for the n.o.bles. He does not have time to pay attention to the commonersâ
âEven though he is an Apothecary of the family?â
âIt is the way it isâ
It was said that an aristocratic apothecary must not examine a commoner. When a servant suffers from a severe disease, a 3rd Cla.s.s Apothecary from the Apothecaries Guild will be called upon to examine the patient. He was surprised that the death rate among the commoners was high because the medicines were expensive and treatment was dubious.
The average lifespan of this world was low, a.s.suming someone reached adulthood, there were few things that can extend someoneâs life.
âMaster Falma does not discriminate and is so kind to us commoners. I am sure you will be an excellent apothecaryâ
Lotte thanked Falma on behalf of all the servants. However he just said with a smiling face.
âItâs absurd to discriminate against patients by their social statusâ
It was only natural for Falma, as a person from the modern world, to treat the patients equally and offer the best treatment.
When in Rome, do as Romans do. Nonetheless, there are some things that canât be conceded.
And now he had discovered another hidden ability when making a circle on his right hand.
He can magnify what he is seeing through the circle depending on the size of the circle!
To sum it up, the following are his abilities so far:
Left Hand â Ability to create substances.Doing a circle on his left hand â Diagnosis Eye, the ability to see through the disease.Right Hand â Ability to erase a substance.Doing a circle on his right hand â Ability to magnify the view within the circle.
âI am undoubtedly, not a human being anymoreâ
It might not have been an exaggeration when Ellen suspected that Falma was the reincarnation of the Medicine G.o.d, Falma had arrived to the same belief.
Falma should be ecstatic from having very convenient abilities. However, his wariness outweighs all of it. Furthermore, Falma was really troubled that he doesnât have a shadow probably because it was compensation for his abilities. The people in the mansion hasnât seem to noticed it, but it was only a matter time before they do. He made sure to only walk in the shade.
Doing it that way, he can hide the fact that he doesnât have a shadow.
âBut, what about after that?â
It was still OK if it was something like a divine possession, but what about if it was something like a devil? Falma was anxious about it because it would be troublesome if he told someone and a spiritualist heard it.
(Ah, come to think of it)
Falma suddenly realized while sorting out his abilities, he checked something in the jewelry box. All of the jewelry inside seemed to be very expensive. There was a brooch, a ring, and other jewelries. He was not interested in the jewelries, instead he picked a gla.s.sware.
âHere it is! I can do it with thisâ
He collected part of jewelries that had gla.s.s and broke it into small clear b.a.l.l.s. Then, he heated up the gla.s.s pieces over the fire and rounded of the corners to make it into marbles
That was the important part. That day, Falma made something out of gla.s.s marbles and a metallic plate in just a few hours. That small work was a simple version of what was his favorite during his past life, he was restless if he doesnât have that one.
âOh well, I hope this is good enough for now. Although I really wished for this one to have a good performanceâ
He was not satisfied with his workmanship, but it will achieve its purpose for now.
That simple handicraft on his hand was glinting in a flash.
âMaster Falma. His Lordship has called youâ
Several days had already pa.s.sed, Falma was already getting used to the life in the mansion and he also remembered the faces of all the servants. He had just finished lunch and now was reading while relaxing with Lotte in the garden, Simon the Butler came into his room in a hurry and called him out. The Butler was the highest ranked servant in the de MĂŠdicis family.
âI wonder what this is about, I have a bad feeling about thisâ
Every time Falmaâs father called him, it was always been not good.
Mostly it was a surprise quiz of quack pharmaceutics thatâs waiting for him.
If thatâs it, then everything was still fine.
He thought about when his father called him in the past. It was a full moon that night when they went together to the herbal garden, there seems to be a magic square drawn on top of the center of the gazebo. His father had a frantic expression with both hands waving while chanting some kind of incantation, like it was some form of punishment game. It was said to infuse divine power to the herbal plants.
Falma, who was bitten by the mosquitoes from the bushes, thought that it was a miserable experience. He was doubtful that his father was really a famous apothecary.
He had enough accompanying his father on his outdoor activities. However.
âThis is your job as an apprentice Royal Court Apothecaryâ
Work. It was the first time Simon called out Falma for that.
âItâs the medical examination for Her Imperial Majestyâ
