Book 10: Chapter 24: Effect of Katara''s Drop
So, we did try making it, but is there a way to test whether this Katara''s Drop really works?
Even if Luna followed the instructions written in the book to a tee, this item was a product that we got fromvishly using powerful materials.
If we missed anything, for example, then
I couldnt imagine just what effect it would have to Mius mom.
Yeah, my intuition might be telling me that it would be fine, but still, its kinda hard testing it on another human. It made me feel hesitant.
Thats the reason why I came up with the idea to test it out ourselves.
An item that could break any kind of curse
I tried drinking a bit of it first.
However, it didnt have any effect.
My status was
Status: Cursed (Static Status) [ Fixed]
It was still the same.
Still, I felt a bit relieved.
It was precisely because my status was fixed that I had the power to do a lot of impossible stuff.
Even if its an item that could break any curse, it wasnt able to break Halts curse so were not sure whether it will have an effect on that [Post Death Diffusion Curse] considering that theyre Evil Gods curse.
Yeah.
Its only on my curse that it didnt have any effect.
Maybe we did something wrong in the process, so there wasnt any effect.
Still, the [Static Status] curse cast on Halt doesnt appear in this book, either. Maybe its a curse that is so powerful even Katara''s Drop cant break it?
Yeah, that might be so.
That was also possible.
Maybe my curse was way too powerful that it wasnt even something imaginable back when the deities created this world.
It wouldnt make sense that it would have an effect of using mana infinitely as much as one would like, if that was the case.
Even the methods of breaking the Post Death Diffusion Curse are also scattered here and there in this book, so Im all for using it, but
It was a bit scary testing it on a human with fragile physical bodies.
I was thinking of testing it on Ryuushin, when
Halt! The method to test whether the item is made correctly is written on the next page.
Whoa. What should we do?
Er, let me see. First, prepare the fruit of Yggdrasil.
Alright, its ready.
We still had stocks in the Spirit Realm, so I took the fruit of Yggdrasil from there.
Pour mana into this fruit and turn it into a seed.
I poured mana into Yggdrasils fruit until it transformed.
It started to glow faintly.
Is this enough?
I suffered a lot when I made it and yet
Sylphmented.
She also tried to make a seed, apparently.
Well, thats how it is. Its Halt, after all.
Not sure why, but it seemed that she had realized something on her own.
Luna, whats next?
Hmmm, nt it in the ground!
I obediently dug a little hole in the ground and nted the seed there.
Pour Katara''s Drop on it eh!?
Hm?
Luna seemed shocked about something, but toote, I already put a droplet of Kataras Drop on the ground where the seed was buried.
A sprout pushed out from the ground in that instant.
It was sheathed in an aura that was a tad familiar to me.
T-This feeling
Yggdrasil!?
Seemed like we unwittingly grew Yggdrasils sprout.
Kataras drop is an item that is necessary to make Yggdrasil sprout, apparently.
Heh, I see.
It has the same effect as the left-over bath water from our house.
Ahh, yeah.
Hm? W-What?
Then, did that mean we couldve just used [Super Water], instead?
I named the leftover water from our bath as Super Water.
It was a fluid that contained enormous amounts of mana.
Well, its not like we can have Mius mom drink left over bath water, so isnt it fine that we made this?
Y, Yes.
Lets not think too deeply about how this fluid contained Youkos fur and Ryuushins scale, alright?
I washed all the materials really well, so I decided to think that it would be fine. I also drank it earlier, and it didnt taste weird.
Its just that Seira seemed to blush while I was drinking Kataras Drop. Oh,e to think of it, I had no idea how holy water was made.
Hey, Ms. Seira, how do you make this thing?
I tried asking discreetly, but she didnt answer and just blushed more furiously, so I felt a bit sad.
Well, some things were better left unknown in this world, so I decided to just let it go and not think too deeply on it.
Afterward, we had Mius mom drink Kataras Drop.
We managed to break her curse, thank goodness.
She didnt have any problems with her body, apparently.
Mr. Halt, thank you very much for healing my mother!
Yeah. d it worked out, Miu.
It is thanks to you that my body now feels as light as a feather. We are truly grateful to you.
You just got better, so please do not force yourself.
Yes. I do not want to make this child worry any more than this.
Oh, right. Miu, you used all your allowance when youmissioned us, right?
Yes, butthats alright. Mother got better, after all!
Miu was a really good child.
Theres something we need to request of you, Miu. If you agree, well return this to you.
I took out the bag of spina.
It had a little bit more than what we got from Miu.
We hadnt reported thepletion of themission yet, so we didnt receive thepensation yet.
Thats why I took it out from my own allowance.
Even if I dont get money, Ill do whatever Halt and you all want! A, Ah, b-but, if I can that is
Miu can also do it. Can you take care of this for us?
After saying that, I handed Miu a flowerpot with the tiny sprout of Yggdrasil sticking out of it.
I made that pot with Earth Magic.
Whats this?
Its a nt that can grow really big, but it takes a lot of time to grow. It might not even grow big enough even after Miu has children and grandchildren.
Do I just have to grow it?
Yup. You can just water it everyday. Its fine even if it withers.
Theres a huge chance that this nt would grow into a big Yggdrasil tree if we had it beside me. But then, itd be a pity if we just let it wither on purpose.
And so, I feel a bit guilty, but I decided to push it on to Miu.
I understand! I will raise this preciously!
Thanks, Miu.
Miu epted it.
It was said that the original Yggdrasil grew extremely slowly by absorbing the mana around it over an incredibly long period of time.
By the way, Yggdrasil sprout wasnt worth much, apparently. No one would probably target this thing, but
Just in case, I decided to borrow Sylphs power to mask its aura.
Thanks to that, even I couldnt tell that this sprout was Yggdrasil.
Moreover, just for anotheryer of protection just in case, I also ced magical circles that could summon the ming knights in case of emergency onto Miu, her mom, and the Yggdrasil sprout.
Alright, this would do.
Miu, themission ispleted with this. If you do not have any problems, then please sign here.
Y-Yes!
I requested her to sign the guildsmission forms fulfillment confirmation column.
After Miu signed it
Yeah, its really Halt.
Cant believe Halts really here
My older brothers Cain and Leon appeared.
