Not realizing this, Vandalieu thought that the treatment of her wound came first, and reached out for the handle of the knife.

「Wait, stop…!」

But this knife was a Magic Item that increased the pain it inflicted. Knowing that pulling it out would cause that violent pain once more, Zadiris tried to stop Vandalieu’s hand.

「…【Painlessness.】」

Knowing that she was in pain, Vandalieu used death-attribute magic to erase the pain that she experienced.

「?!」

As Zadiris was bewildered by the sudden disappearance of the pain, Vandalieu pulled the knife from her abdomen in one movement. And then he poured the 3rd-class Potion on the wound.


The wound closed in a ridiculous fashion. The deep opening that pierced through her flesh closed before his very eyes to become new, smooth skin. There was not even the slightest sign that there had been a wound there.

Surgically treating such a wound and the plastic surgery required to remove the scar left afterwards on Earth would take a great deal of time and effort, but on Lambda, it was done by applying a single Potion. In this regard, Lambda was more advanced than Earth, thought Vandalieu.

Though he probably wouldn’t have thought so if he knew just how much that 3rd-class Potion was worth.
