Chapter 284 Useless Person ?

Part 2

“Wait here for a minute” (Cry)

I made Sytry and Lucia wait in the Clan Master’s office, moved the device, and headed for my room. Let’s quickly get rid of it before I forget about it.

My room is designed so that I can live a reclusive life. In addition to my collection of Relics and my bed, there is also a refrigerator, a toilet, a bath, a sink, and a water supply.

When I enter my private room while stretching my back, I put the dangerous Potion on the desk. Then, I suddenly noticed the refrigerator placed next to the bed.

I open the refrigerator and take out a bottle of strawberry milk from inside. The cake, which was about to expire, was a gift, but the strawberry milk is something I secretly ordered due to my secret sweet tooth.

After pouring it into a glass and neatly putting the bottle away in the fridge, I compare it to the Potion with a silly name on the table.

I knew it, the color looks exactly the same………… Its color and its smell are the same too. Is this really such a dangerous Potion? I find it very hard to believe.

It seems to be called ?Strawberry Blaze?, but I wonder if they give it that name because it smells like strawberries. Are they using strawberries as an ingredient? There really are some strange Potions in the world, aren’t there?

As a test, I took the canteen and brought it closer to my mouth. And there, one of the rings on my finger became hot.

A Ring Relic with the power to detect danger???Disaster Slip (Wisdom of the Rat)?. It seems that there is no doubt that this liquid is dangerous since there is no way it would react to strawberry milk.

If it was a normal Potion, it would have been fine, but if what Sytry said was true, this Potion was the one that destroyed multiple countries. I don’t think Sytry would abuse it, but it is too dangerous to leave it to the useless Sytry.

I am sorry, but I, ?Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)?, am going to follow in the footsteps of my predecessors and bury this Magic Potion in the darkness.

Without hesitation, I pour the Potion into the sink. The strawberry-milk-colored and strawberry-milk-like liquid swirls around the sink and flows down the drain.

While being careful not to get the Potion on my skin, I wash the canteen with water and wash it off completely.

This is a relief. Zebrudia is safe now. This is the full potential of a Level 8.

All that is left to do is apologize to Sytry. I just dumped a Potion but I breathed a sigh of relief as if I completed my job. Then I stared at the metallic canteen there.

“…………” (Cry)

I alternately check the cup of strawberry milk and the canteen on the table.

I casually take up the cup and carefully pour it into the metal canteen I have just emptied.

I checked again, but the liquid shaking in the water was indistinguishable from the one I had just thrown away. The only difference was that the Ring Relic did not warn me that it is dangerous. If the containers had been the same, it would have been impossible to tell them apart without my Ring Relic.

If you can’t tell the difference between them when you placed it next to real strawberry milk, what the hell are you ?Strawberry Blaze?…………

When I was at a loss for words and feeling either impressed or dumbfounded, Sytry and Lucia came downstairs, probably because they were tired of waiting for me.

“Cry-san, are you not done yet? ………… !? Wh-What are you doing!” (Sytry)

“Aaaah, this is, uh??” (Cry)

Sytry sees the canteen and cup in my hand and rushes over to me.

When she saw the contents of the canteen and the cup that still had traces of strawberry milk in it, she looked up at me with a shocked expression.

“There is a little bit less…… D-Don’t tell me…… You drank it!?” (Sytry)

“No??” (Cry)

“It’s terrible??I can’t believe you drink so much of it, moreover without any dilution… We have to quickly make an antidote…… If things go on, Cry-san will become a meat puppet that only listens to orders??” (Sytry)

“Haaah!? Syt, what did you just say!?” (Lucia)

Sytry was deadly pale. Even though her skin was already white, you can’t see any blood flowing to her face and tears were accumulating in the corner of her eyes. Maybe due to her confusion, her guess is incorrect. To think that the always calm and collected Sytry would change her complexion so much… It seems that this was something worse than I thought.

As soon as she took the metal canteen from my hand and closed the lid tightly, Sytry shouted at Lucia in desperation.

“I-I’ll be going! I’ll make an antidote no matter what! Lucia-chan, let Cry-san rest quietly!” (Sytry)

“Ah, wai??” (Lucia)

Before Lucia could stop her, Sytry was running up the stairs in a single leap. There was no time to say anything. Since she came down, all I could say was, “Aaaah, this is, uh” and “No”.

In the end, only Lucia and I were left. Sytry is a calm and collected person, but she used to be a bit clumsy. It seems she was just hiding it in the shadows and didn’t really overcome it.

Lucia was stunned. As expected, even my Imouto, who has a good reputation at the academy, cannot understand this situation without prior information.

“………… I am telling you that I didn’t drink it.” (Cry)

“Ha, haah………… Nii-san, are you feeling okay?” (Lucia)

Now that you say it, I might be feeling a little bit lazy………… Un, un, that’s right.? I am always feeling like that.

I take out cold strawberry milk from the refrigerator and pour it into a cup.

Once I confirm that the ring did not sense any danger, I take a sip. The sweetness and aroma of strawberries mingle with the richness and aroma of the milk.

Yes, yes, this is it. This is what strawberry milk is. But how could even a professional like Sytry not notice it at first glance……

“There she goes, trying to make an antidote for strawberry milk.” (Cry)

“…………………… Shouldn’t you go after her?” (Lucia)

Lucia was silently staring at me for a while but then said with a cold gaze that was no less than her “Master (Shisho)”.

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

Haha Cry’s full potential consists of throwing away the Strawberry Blaze and drinking strawberry milk, sasuga Cry

… An antidote for strawberry milk, how is she going to create that…

But you know Sytry, even if Cry drank it, it wouldn’t have worked on him as he is Cry is too “OP”!

Tchao à plus!
