.
After coming to the elf village, I got the permission to freely walk around in the village for two days. With that much time, I would surely able to find a woman to add into my harem.
But before that, I had something to do.
「Tita, let me meet your mother.」
「Yep, I know.」
「Wait, wait a second. Although she is a widow, Tita’s mother is a sick person you know!? Tita too, why are you obediently allowing him to meet her!?」
The village chief was making a ruckus.
「Obaa-chan, you misunderstand. Ork has knowledge of medicine, so I want him to take a look at Okaa-san. He might be able to cure her.」
Well, it wasn’t like it was really a misunderstanding.
If she was a first-rate female and she wanted to give birth to my child, then I’d push her down as much as she wanted after her disease was cured.
Elf had youthful appearance after all. And a woman’s value wouldn’t drop just because she already had a child.
「An orc who is a doctor you say?」
「There were various circumstances behind it.」
「……I’ll also come with you. Don’t try anything strange there.」
「Yes, please do.」
If Tita was the village chief’s granddaughter, her mother must be the chief’s daughter.
I could understand why she was worried.
◇
A beautiful and transient woman was lying down on a bed at the second floor of the village chief’s house.
She had the appearance of a woman at the middle of her twenty. She didn’t look like someone with a sixteen years old daughter at all.
But, she looked haggard and suffering. Her breathing was rough. Even just from a glance her throat looked swollen and rashes were appearing on her skin.
「Then, allow me to examine her right away.」
It seemed that the woman’s consciousness was hazy.
She didn’t even notice me here.
I took her hand and used the magic that I learned from the great sage Merlin Enlight.
It was a magic to check the condition of the target’s health. Other than for specifying illness, I also used it to perform maintenance to my own body.
It seemed that her body was afflicted with a malignant virus. I identified the effective ingredient for this. At the same time I also checked her stamina.
「Ork, how is she?」
「Be quiet for a bit. This is a delicate magic. I won’t be able to grasp the information if my focus broke.」
I finished converting all of the patient’s information into number.
I had considered what I should do at the same time of me diagnosing the patient’s health.
I took out some herbs from inside my rucksack, grinded them, mixed them, then I altered them using several magic.
I hardened them and dissolved them in water.
I borrowed the power of spirits and floated the drops of water in the air. I moved the drops of water into the patient’s mouth drop by drop and made them permeated into her body.
The village chief was surprised seeing me borrowing the power of water spirits.
The water amount inside Tita’s mother’s body was too small. She was also lacking nourishment. This was concerning.
I created nutrient using some honey that I had as the base, and then I borrowed the power of water spirits again to make the nutrient permeated into her body.
I focused so that I didn’t put any burden into her body while I poured ki into her body to strengthen her life force, reinforcing her own healing ability and immunity.
After continuing that for an hour, the water and nutrient that she took, along with the medicine weakening the virus inside her body caused her countenance to become better. Her breathing also stabilized.
I felt a bit tired after using magic nonstop for an hour.
When dealing with a sick patient, strengthening them too much could become poisonous instead. Because of that the treatment demanded a delicate work. That was also a cause of my fatigue.
「I have finished with the general treatment. I want to explain about her current state. Let’s move to another room. I don’t want to let the patient hear it.」
Although hazy, Tita’s mother still had consciousness.
This was a talk that I didn’t want to let the sick person in question to hear.
◇
We returned to the room where we first talked before.
「Thank you. It has been a long time since I saw Okaa-san looked that peaceful.」
Tita was honestly rejoicing. The village chief also looked happy, but she also looked unconvinced somewhat.
「……I have a mountain of questions to ask. Why is an orc able to use the power of water spirits? Furthermore you had a tremendous sense for magic and ki. Are you really an orc?」
「The matter about me isn’t important. The problem is the state of Tita’s mother. Let me state my conclusion. It’s impossible to treat her in this situation.」
Tita covered her mouth with her hands in despair.
「No way, even though that medicine looked really effective. Even her countenance looked better now you know? How can you say that she can’t be healed, you must be lying right?」
「……I said it’s impossible in this situation. There are two hindrances for her recovery. First, I don’t have enough ingredients at hand. I have used up all the ingredients I had for the medicine just now. Well, I’ll manage somehow if I can gather the ingredients. Even if I can’t get the regular ingredients, I can go pick some at the forest, buy them from the city, or using magic to tamper with some substitutes to make the medicine somehow.」
「I’ll also help with gathering medicinal herbs from the forest. There is still another reason why it’s no good right?」
「There isn’t enough time. Her sickness is from virus……well, it’s caused by poison entering and gnawing at her body from the inside. The only way to treat her is to give her medicine that can exterminate the poison, but giving her too much medicine in one sitting will put a great burden on the patient’s body. I will need to give her the medicine in small doses continuously for several days. I estimate that it will take around one week for her to be cured. I can’t save her if I can only stay in this village for two days. And I’ll also need to use the whole day tomorrow to gather the ingredients after all.」
Tita placed her hands on the village chief’s shoulders.
「Obaa-chan, let Ork to keep staying here. He said that Okaa-san can be healed if only he has time.」
「……There is no guarantee that orc is saying the truth. It might be just his excuse to stay here longer.」
「Are you going to insist on that and chased out Ork? Are you going to just watch Kaa-san die? I believe in Ork. Ork, Kaa-san will really be saved if we have the ingredients and you have one week right?」
「I promise. I swear on my teachers’ names.」
I absolutely wouldn’t lie when swearing on my teachers’ names.
「Ork, I knew that you have the strength and the knowledge after seeing your examination just now. Then allow me to ask you several questions. First, is it possible to ask you to create the medicine in great amount and also for you to tell us the right dosage for its consumption?」
「I won’t be able to decide the right amount of the medicine for that day without looking at the patient’s condition. I can’t predict how much her condition will change. In addition the quality of this medicine will degrade as time passed since its creation. It’s still possible that she will be cured in that way, but the possibility of that will be just ten percent at best. She will die nine out of ten times.」
I answered honestly.
Then the village chief fell silent. Tita opened her mouth in exchange.
「Obaa-chan, that’s enough! Ork, please. If you can’t stay in the village then I’ll leave the village together with Okaa-san. Then you will be able to cure her like that won’t you? I’ll prepare right away.」
「……I’ll be the one troubled in that case though.」
I came here in order to create my harem. So how could I leave the village without even meeting the women here first.
「You are looking for a cute girl who want to be pushed down aren’t you? Then I’ll give my everything to you Ork! If you cure Okaa-san, then I’ll want to be pushed down by you.」
「No, if I accept that offer then I’ll be just a fiend. Spare me from that, I don’t want a relationship with that kind of heavy tragic sacrifice.」
I really wanted Tita. But, not like that.
I had a longing for a relationship like what Tou-san and Kaa-san had.
Both me and the woman wouldn’t be able to become happy with that kind of calculating relationship.
The harem in my ideal was a harem where there was mutual love. I’d lose my drive if the woman I embraced was reluctant.
「Am I really that lacking in charm?」
「It’s not that. This is my policy. I won’t embrace a woman as long as she doesn’t want to be pushed down by me from the bottom of her heart.」
I wouldn’t go through this much hardship if I could just bend my principle in regard to this.
Frankly speaking, I could already embrace as many women as I wanted since the time I had successful business. Many women had approached me because they were attracted to my money.
But, that was wrong. I didn’t just want their body, but also their heart.
The village chief laughed.
Tita and me focused at her.
「Kakakaka, my bad, it looks like I have too much bias just because you are an orc. My eyes are opened from watching the conversation just now. No, actually I have already realized since some time ago. When you performed your examination, you didn’t have any ulterior motive and only focused in saving a life desperately. ……I’ll put my trust on you. If it’s you then you won’t bring any misfortune to the people of this village. You can stay in this village as long as you want. Besides, that way this village will be able to monopolize a doctor of your skill. I shall prepare the best hospitality for you. That’s why, allow me to make a request to you once more. Ork-dono, I ask you to save my daughter.」
The village chief bowed her head.
Tita raised her voice in surprise seeing her grandmother bowing her head like that.
「Yes, please leave it to me. I swear that I’ll save her without fail.」
With this, it was decided that I would stay here for one week.
Then, I should do my job properly.
◇
Four days had passed since I arrived at this village.
I did nothing but gathering ingredients from the surrounding forest at the first day.
As expected from an elf village, the area here had an abundance of medicinal herbs.
The herbs were different from what the formal recipe required, so I needed to alter their property using magic, but I was able to gather the medicine’s ingredients.
The recovery of Tita’s mother was going well. She could get up and talk now. Tita cried in happiness and hugged her mother, after that she also hugged me.
When the villagers learned that there was an orc with medical knowledge in the village, those with sickness and wound came one after another to me for medical consultation. By healing them, I got treated like a savior before I knew it.
It was only natural. This was an isolated village. There was no doctor with sufficient skill and knowledge here. Even wound and sickness that could be easily cured in the city couldn’t be cured by anyone here.
I could cure most cases, but among them there was also a case that was beyond me. I declared right on the spot there that it was impossible for me.
It was the teaching from my teachers. Spoke honestly when you didn’t understand something.
An uncertain decision and lie would only bring misfortune to both sides.
Although they were dejected to hear my honesty, they also accepted it. It was regretful, but even I had my limit.
Between the treatments, I went all out to the offensive toward the women in this village.
……The result, I magnificently went through honorable defeat after honorable defeat.
Strange, even though I had already tried with dozens of women, not a single one of them wanted to be pushed down by me and gave birth to my child.
I had finished my medical examination for today and held my head in frustration under a tree at the corner of the village.
「What are you doing there?」
Tita came. She was holding fruits in her hands.
「Today is also no good. Even though I have talked with almost all the women in this village, I can’t make even one of them to want to be pushed down.」
「Is that so? You’re unexpectedly popular you know Ork. There are also a lot of girls who feel indebted to you after you saved their relative.」
「……That’s not what I mean. I expect something, more, a girl who is passionate and straightforward」
To tell the truth, until now I had never meet a girl who looked like they wanted to be pushed down by me.
Recently, I came to doubt Kaa-san’s words that a truly strong orc could make a woman to want to bear his child.
No, wrong. This was simply because my strength was lacking.
I had to be even stronger.
If I got stronger, it would be the woman who approached me and told me they wanted to be embraced by me.
「You’re strange Ork. But you know, I don’t hate that strangeness of yours.」
Tita smiled.
This girl’s smile was really pretty.
As I thought, I wanted her.
「Tita.」
「What?」
「Don’t you have any wish to be pushed down by me?」
「I don’t have any wish like that!」
She denied it with a bright red face.
Too bad.
「Anyway, eat this and cheer up.」
She gave me a red fruit.
Certainly this fruit was delicious.
The elves’ dining table were usually lined up with fruits, vegetables, and meats.
They received the blessing of the forest more abundantly than what was available in the city. All of them were delicious and I felt moved eating them until the second day.
But, I was tired of it. Raw, whole roast, raw, whole roast, all of the foods were only served like that. I wanted to eat a more proper cooking.
I couldn’t endure this kind of eating habits!
Yosh, I decided.
「I’ll treat everyone to my cooking. I’ll teach the elves what delicious food is! And then I’ll get popular.」
At this rate, no woman would fall in love with me.
Then, I’d use my remaining stay here to spread my cooking.
If I could grasp their stomach, they might want to be pushed down by me. This method was a bit deviating from the main point, but I got the feeling that this method also had its own prospect of success.
Even Tita got putty from my cooking. Surely this strategy would go well! ……In the end I couldn’t make Tita wanted to be pushed down by me, but that was that.
Besides, I also purely wanted the elves to know about cooking.
Everyone in the orc village became happy when Kaa-san popularized cooking. I’d do the same thing here.
