Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

"Huh.... I didn't know that was going to happen."

I was taking a bath with Soleil, listening to the reports from the village of Klimiana. Ever since they had entered Agartha, I had asked the spirits of the forest to watch over them along with Sadakichi and the others.

"The people of Crimiana are overharvesting the trees of the forest and even burning them to make room for their dwellings. It would be all right if they cut down the trees in moderation, but they are going beyond the bounds of what they can do. No wonder the spirits of the forest are angry.

"So they are under the curse of the spirits of the forest?

It's not so much a curse as harassment by the spirits. The reason why the humidity in that whole village is abnormally high is because the spirits of the forest are working together with the spirits of the water. This is why their dwellings are covered with mold, and some of the houses have mushrooms growing on them.

"I was the one who ordered them to do this, but I never thought it would come to this," he said. But still, they've been living in the doldrums all winter... The people of Crimiana have endured it well. That's a great mentality.

"Yes. I thought I'd be out of tune soon, too. You are surprisingly patient. But, as you can imagine, their hearts are about to break.

"I guess so. Let's see how they react then. I hope they return to their countries of origin quietly.

"Do you still think that the people of Klimiana will do something, Master Linos?"

They say a cornered rat will bite a cat. A cornered man will do anything. In the first place, these people come to another country with a large number of people and try to take over the country. Normally, it would be a war, but they have dared to start such a war and occupy those countries. That's because they have soldiers who are not afraid to die. They can't be defeated unless they have a great difference in strength. It's not a good idea to go head to head with them. It's best to let them leave the country peacefully. Soleil, I'm sorry, but please continue to keep an eye on their movements.

Thank you, sir.

I'm really glad you're on our side, Soleil.

"Uh-huh. I'll stand by Mr. Linos' side until the day I die.

"That's very encouraging. We'd better get out of here, Soleil.

We get out of the bath and go to the changing room to wipe ourselves with towels. I wipe myself and Soleil's body as well. For some reason, she looked very happy when I wiped her body.

"I have a favor to ask you, Mr. Rinos."

"Yes?"

"Please... reward me."

"Yes?"

Tonight...

"...okay. Do you want me to be gentle today? Do you want it rough?"

"Today... please be rough..."

"Is that okay? Soleil is so quick to say no!"

"That's..."

Soleil is red to the ears and embarrassed. I took her in a princess hug and we went to my room.

The next day, I sat in my office and stifled a yawn. I had worked too hard last night. Soleil's big boobs are a crime. And on top of that, she is so erotic. She is a succubus, after all. I managed to win last night, but in a few more years, I may lose the battle in bed to Soleil. Just as I am thinking of that, there is a knock at the door of my office. I quickly adjust my posture and ask her to come in. May, Chi-wan, Roni, and Glarina, who had defected from the Church of Crimiana, entered the room.

"Oh May, what's wrong?"

"Master Linos, I have come to report on the cure for Cirithrae."

Chi-Wan speaks to me in a calm voice.

"How's it going, Zhiwan?

Unfortunately, we have not been able to cure the patient completely. In the meantime, we are developing a drug to prevent the onset of Kirisurae, and we are on the verge of developing that as well.

"Oh."

"This was discovered by Master Mei, but using cockatrice venom and Glarina's acid solution, it seems that the onset of chilisray can be controlled."

"Well, Mae. Really?"

"I can't say for sure because I haven't administered it to humans yet, but I've bitten a dozen augers that were infected with Chrysolay, and they didn't develop the disease. Moreover, if the symptoms are mild, the progression of the disease seems to be considerably slowed down. We are still in the process of confirming this..."

"Wow. Cockatrice venom... right? Cockatrice turns people to stone, right?"

"Yes. Cockatrice venom contains 87 percent draw-persalmin face. It is blended with Mr. Gralina's acid solution in the ratio of eight to two to reduce the content to a moderate concentration. It is further extracted by the solfbonds method. When the gatamerans is citralized to it, the maximum effect is achieved."

"...Oh. Yeah. Okay, Mei.

Chiwan watches the exchange with a laugh.

"Master Mei, that's a very simple explanation, but perhaps you don't understand it, Mr. Linos?"

"Eh? Oh... I'm sorry. I was talking in technical terms..."

"No. It's okay, Mae. I could tell it was going to work. It's okay. Besides, I'm very happy to see May's cute face in trouble."

May is lying on the ground, her face bright red. Glarina looks at her with a smile.

"Oh... oh-hon..."

Loni immediately clears his throat. Then Chiwan opens his mouth.

"We would like you to ask King Sandanji for permission to administer the prophylactic medicine we have developed to the people of the country," Linos says.

"Me? King Sandanji?"

"Yes. Cirithrae is highly contagious when bitten by a dog with this disease. The affected dogs are mostly in the country of Sandanje. We need to prevent it as soon as possible.

"Okay. All right, I'll talk to him. By the way, Glarina. How's the research going?

"Yes. I still have a lot to learn and I can barely keep up with it, but it is fulfilling.

"Gralina is a quick learner and has a lot of potential. I am sure she will be a good researcher.

"If Chiwan says so, there is no doubt about it. He would be a good rival for Roni, wouldn't he?

Roni turned away with a pout at his words.

"I'm not the kind of person who can be easily overtaken by a junior.

"Ha ha ha, that's Roni. You're a good man. Roni is also my daughters' doctor. I'll be counting on you.

With these words, I changed into my clothes for going out and moved to the country of Sandanj.

At the royal palace, I told them that I had come, and was immediately taken to the audience chamber. After waiting for a while, the king, Nike, arrived.

The king of Agartha always arrives unexpectedly.

"I'm sorry."

No need to apologize. Poseidon's transference is very convenient. I always envy you.

Nike grins. Then he turns serious and opens his mouth.

"If the King of Agartha and Lord Meirias are here together, has there been any progress regarding Cirithrae?"

"That's right, Mr. Nike. That's right. But this is just a request..."

I talk about prophylactics for Cirisley. Nike listens to me, not moving an inch.

"How much?"

"What?"

We will buy all the prophylactics. Just tell me how much you want."

Nike's quick decision makes me gasp.

"I don't want your money.

The voice was May's. Nike froze at this.

"Oh... I... I shouldn't have..."

May held her mouth with both hands and muttered in a small voice. I whispered in a small voice.

"No, May, it's okay. Go on."

May straightened up and spoke to Nike in a clear voice.

The prophylactic medicine we have developed has only been tested on ogres. If it were administered to the human body, it might cause some kind of reaction. We are asking you to use the drug in such a stage. We cannot accept any money from you.

But, Lord Meirias...

"Mr. Nike. My wife Meirias is right. I won't accept money for a medicine that has not yet been proven to work on humans.

"King Sandanji. I will tell the researchers of this country how to make this prophylactic drug. We would like to study with the researchers of this country and ourselves to make it more effective. Hopefully...this prophylactic drug will also work on dogs.... We will work hard to develop a more perfect prophylaxis."

"Me... Lord Meirias.... King Agartha. Thank you ... thank you."

Nike bowed her head with tears in her eyes.

Immediately after that, by order of Nike, the prophylactic medicine made by Mei and the others was administered to the people in the country of Sandanj. One month passed. There were no side effects or allergic reactions that had been feared, and so far there have been no reports of new outbreaks of Cirithrae in Sandanje.

One day, when the snow in Agartha had melted completely and the land was covered with spring flowers, a letter and five boxes were delivered to me from Sandanj. I had just heard the report of Sandanj from Mei, Zhuang, and Loni. Timely as it was, the letter was delivered to me by Lassees of Posehay, who was working at the medical research institute in Sandanjan.

"A letter from Mr. Nike? What is it?"

I take the letter out of the box and look through it.

I can't help but chuckle. May and the others look at each other and smile. I pick up the medal presented to me, which seems to be made of pure gold and is engraved with a picture of a man holding a dog. I let out a laugh and open my mouth.

"I see that the medal also has a dog design on it. As a result, you have gained the trust of the Sandanji nation in exchange for free prophylactics.

"This medal ... cute. It's typical of the Sandanjis. But we have not yet found a cure for Kirisrei. We have to finish it soon. Let's do our best."

The faces of the Poseidonians tighten at the sound of May's strong voice. Seeing this, I was convinced in my heart that this disease would be eradicated.
