Saving 80,000 Gold in an Another World for Retirement

Accident 3

“…No problem. There are injuries that should be sutured in our hospital, but you don’t intend to provide unlimited medical technology from Earth now, do you? No? In that case, a slightly large scar would remain, but there would be no aftereffects.

In the meantime, I’ll give you some analgesic, antipyretic, and antibiotic, and you can administer only a small dose to those who have a fever at your discretion, Viscount. Please read the dosage and administration carefully.

……and never give more than the required dosage to anyone here.

They’ll think that if they drink a lot, they’ll get well faster, so they’ll take it all at once, which is a common layman’s rumor.

Also, I got them all from over-the-counter drugs, so they’re not very potent. Don’t think of them as prescription drugs.

……However, still, never give more than the specified amount per dose in the instructions.

If you need anything, call me right away. I don’t mind even if it’s during working hours, so don’t hesitate. People’s lives come first.” (McCoy)

“Understood. Thank you!” (Mitsuha)

I guess I couldn’t just take the medicine from the hospital without permission. McCoy-san bought a large amount of antiseptics, remedies, pain relievers, anti-inflammatories, bandages, etc., at the pharmacy out of his own pocket.

……Well, of course, I will pay the expenses later.

As for painkillers, when the pain is severe, they shouldn’t take them regularly, but only when the symptoms are severe. Although, I’m sure these guys here can tolerate the pain.

But it’s effective as a fever reducer and anti-inflammatory, so they don’t have to endure it, I have to give them the proper dose. It’s hard to know when to use it because of its short effect time…

It’s an over-the-counter drug, so there’s no Voltaren. Loxonin and Calonal have very different characteristics, so it’s necessary to use them properly… If you drink too much, it’ll be bad for your stomach…

But we don’t want it to work too well either.

It’s not a good idea to half-heartedly bring Earth’s medicine into a world like this.

Such medicines are meaningless in this world if we don’t teach them how to make them themselves.

Besides, it would be suicidal to let the earth’s medicine be available only in our territory and the Boses’ territory.

We’re absolutely bound to be noticed from all over the place.

If rumors spread that it was a miracle drug or a panacea, who knows what the old people in power would think.

This time, it was an accident caused by me bringing in the manufacture of gunpowder, and I didn’t want to lose valuable researchers, so it was a special measure. It’s not like they were injured while killing monsters or something.

…But not everyone thinks so…

Last time that guy was saved by Hime Miko’s medicine and treatment, so why can’t our son be saved?

I can’t help but think so……

Well, let’s not think too deeply about it.

My arms are not long enough to protect all the people in this world.

I will only protect those who are close to me at all costs.

And only those whom I have decided to protect.

Even God doesn’t help all believers.

When I happen to feel like it, I just help people who caught my eye.

That’s how the world works……

At any rate, it looks like my collection of bugging devices, recorders, and ultra-compact cameras will increase again.

And I wonder if we will get another “little girl who is bored and comes to me for someone to talk to” or something like that.

……In the room of two filthy old men.

=====

I heard that it has been officially announced that Count Bozes will be promoted to the rank of Marquis.

…Ceremony or Party?

No, I don’t want to get involved in that.

It’s not a debutante ball where the success of the party greatly affects the girl’s future.

Besides, there must be some traditional customs and manners for such an event, so it would not be enough to hold an eccentric event. It should be a solemn and quiet event.

It will probably be a national event, attended by the king and other higher-ups……

“Well, that’s certainly true, but I’d like to order food for the party…” (Count Bozes)

While I was thinking that, a request came from Count-sama.

“Eh~…” (Mitsuha)

“No, putting aside the ceremony, there’s no way I could betray the expectations of my guests at a party where the Boses family is the main attraction, by not serving Yamano cuisine!

Please, I’ll pay you properly and I’ll ask Viscount Reiner to do it for me!” (Count Bozes)

Oh yeah, Viscount Reiner’s house is Adelaide-chan’s house, isn’t it?

……That means I’ll be asking Marcel-san and his crew, who have had special training in Yamano cuisine, to support me. Just like at Beatrice-chan’s debutante ball.

“Then you don’t need me to be there, do you?……” (Mitsuha)

“No way! This is probably the biggest stage of my life, of the Bozes family. We have to show the nobles all over the country the utmost dignity…. Yes, absolutely!!” (Count Bozes)

Ah~…

Well, I guess it can’t be helped.

It’s not going to be street food, as you’d expect, so it’ll be regular platters, desserts, and alcoholic beverages…

If that’s the case, I should ask Viscount Reiner’s chefs and bring them a large amount of food from my Japanese residence. Sweets, fruits, canned food, and retort pouches that can be kept well for a long time, so we can prepare them in advance…

“Understood…… Just food, right?” (Mitsuha)

“Yes, that’s right. As one would expect, we can’t have any weird performances at the ceremony of the promotion or at the reception party.” (Count Bozes)

Well, yeah. That’s right, I guess…

Oh, maybe he wants to show off how close his relationship with me.

Since I cooperated so much with Beatrice-chan’s debutante ball, if I ignore count-sama’s promotion event, it might create a rumor that I’m on good terms with only Beatrice-chan and not Count-sama…

That would reduce the Count’s influence and increase Beatrice-chan’s engagement talk.

……I can’t let that happen. No no no no no no!!

“I will do my best!” (Mitsuha)

The ceremony and party for the promotion were still some way off.

These things can’t be announced a week in advance.

The women need to order new dresses and accessories, and they need to prepare for the day by dieting, taking care of their hair and skin, and so on……
