Chapter 18 â Lord Selim does not like the way the coffee was made
The next day, when I was walking alone in a deserted alleyway, I was surrounded by adults dressed in black.
Itâs yesterdayâs today, so I know exactly who they areâŠ
âAre you someone from the church?â
ââŠshut up and follow us.â
These guys, despite being like this, it seems that think they are hiding their identities. In that case, even if they find out about my status, they shouldnât spread the word about it.
âIce Wall!â
ââŠwhat, Bergmann Barrier!?â
The Bergmann Barrier is proof of the Bergmann Duke Household.
âYou guys, I donât know on whose order you are acting for, but can you do something to me and take responsibility for it?â
âCaptain, this is bad. His face, Iâve seen it before.â
âDamn itâŠ.â
The guys in black left without accident.
Iâm worried that <Seeker>âs experience will be reduced in the event of a battle. I was saved from that by their quick retreat.
âPhew. The church guys seem to want the healing wizard to be under their control no matter what.â
How troublesome.
I pulled myself together and headed for my targeted children.

I reached level 10. It seems that I learned a new <Skill>.
ăMessage: 1 unread itemă
ăYou acquired Physical Support skill â New!ă
ăPhysical support skill can restore the physical strength of the target who has weakened due to illness. Please note that it cannot remove the cause of the diseaseă
ăSkillă
ăHeală
ăBasic Healing â cures minor cuts and scratchesă
ăPhysical Support â provides physical support to the target who is fighting illnessă
Skills to support the sick? However, it cannot be completely cured.
For the time being, I want to try using it.
Ask Amanda if she knows anyone sick.
âAmanda, do you know anyone sick in bed?â
âCan you heal them!?â
When I visited Amandaâs house and asked about it, she immediately asked back. She seems to have someone on her mind.
âI canât heal them. But, it seems that I can help them recover their stamina.â
âWhat do you mean by that? Well, anyway, as long as it would make it somewhat better. Follow me.â
I was brought to a coffee shop where I had previously repaired a magic device. Itâs a place where old people get together and do the thing called karaoke.
âOld Johann, are you there?â
âOh, Grandma Amanda. Also, you were the boy who fixed our magic device.â
The name of the owner of this coffee shop seems to be Johann.
âYour granddaughter is here, right? Let us see her.â
âHey, Amanda-san. Zofi doesnât feel well these days. Leave her alone.â
The shop owner hurriedly stopped her, but Amanda didnât care and went into the shop ownerâs living space at the back of the shop.
âZofi, weâre coming in.â
A young woman was sleeping on the bed in the back of the room.
âOh my, isnât it Amanda-san? Did you come to visit me? Sorry, I find it hard to even sit up today.â
She was a pale, haggard woman. This seems to require the support of her physical strength.
ăPhysical strength can be restored   Would you like to support?   Yes/Noă
When I used the <Skill>, the patientâs complexion immediately improved.
âAra?â
Curious, she sat up.
âI wonder what happened, suddenly Iâm fineâŠâ
âDid you heal her?â
Asked Amanda, who was watching the situation.
âHeal? Can she be healed!?â
A surprised Johann entered the conversation.
âNo, itâs <Physical Support>. She only temporarily recovered.â
âIs that soâŠ?â
I made Johann disappointed. However,
âI feel so much better. Thank you.â
The patient thanked me.
ăYou supported a patientâs physical strength   Your experience points increased   +100 experience pointsă
ăCurrent level: 10Â Â Current experience points: 330/1100ă
âThank you, little brother. If you donât mind, can we talk a little? Iâll treat you to a cup of coffee.â
Johann closed the sign at the entrance of the store and made me and Amanda sit at the counter. A cup of coffee is placed in front of me.
ââŠow!â
I almost burnt my tongue. Is coffee really made like this with steaming water? It should be the commoner style.
âMy granddaughter, her name is Zofi, has Gelernaâs disease.â
Gelernaâs disease. A type of infection. Another name for it is the disease of the weak.
Those who can use physical strengthening and those with high immunity can recover from it with their own resistance. However, once infected, the disease gradually weakens the infected over several years, leading to death.
âWhat a pitiful child. She got sick and was kicked out of her marriage, and she had no one to rely on other than this old man. If your magic spell can make my granddaughter feel a little better, I hope that you can continue the treatment. I canât give much for the medical fee, but if I sell this store, I should get some money.â
âDonât be silly!â
Immediately, Amanda objected.
âIf this store is gone, where would our entertainment go!â
Karaoke is important to Amanda.
âI donât need money. I just need to gain experience in healing.â
I can also get experience points.
ââŠthank you, little brother. I owe you a favor.â
Thus, it was decided that I would go to Johannâs store for treatment every day.
