A total of seventeen gem seeds. Anne put them away in a bag.

The two of them, a cat, helped Nost collect the materials he needed and walked out of the forest. As she left the ruins, Anne looked back at the ancient building that had slept quietly in time, and turned to leave.

The wind blows through this quiet space, and the branches and leaves of flowers and plants sway gently, like a warm sigh, silently saying goodbye.

"Guide", left.

"Luo! Annie! ”

As soon as the three of them and one cat came out of the forest, they saw Bebo and Lifa waiting on the side.

"Brother!"

"Lifa."

Nost apologizes to Erna at the restaurant and says goodbye to Erna and Lifa, and takes Rowe and Anne, along with Bebo and Puff, to his home outside the town.

"My mother passed away in a real disaster when I was a child, and it was Mother Erna who took care of me all the time. Lifa is her daughter. "My father was a pirate and never came back. Sit as you please. ”

Saying that, Nost spread his hands, his cheap father, he hadn't even seen him, but he only knew from the codex he left behind that there was still such a number one person in the world.

"So, are they our new partners?" Bebo sat on a stool and reached out his paws to touch Puff's paws.

"Well, I haven't officially introduced it yet." Anne pointed to the puff flying on the side and introduced, "It's the puff that flies here, and it is naturally the ability of the misty fruit." He's Noster, he's a pharmacist. This is Bebo, pure Mao. It's our navigator ~ Everyone will be partners in the future. ”

"Puff~" Puff landed on Bebo's knees, curled up his tail and sat down standardly.

"From then on, I will be your senior." Bebo also said to Puff very seriously.

"Poof."

Nost had a black line on the side.

Suddenly, Beibo turned his head to look at Noster, and his little bean-like eyes stared at Nost very seriously, "Noster, do you know how to cook?" ”

Bebo's words seemed to suddenly press a terrible switch, and all the movements and expressions of Anne and Luo stopped, and they all looked at Nost with deep eyes.

Northt: Σ(°△°|||) _What happened!

"Will be ......" Although Erna often helped him, he had lived alone most of the time over the years, and if he hadn't even been able to cook, he would have starved to death.

But your expressions are terrible......

"It's delicious~" 〒▽〒 Bebo, who never wants to eat omelet rice again, burst into tears, he was bitter in his heart, but he didn't say it. Nost said that he can prepare all the complicated potions for spicy food, just a few dishes, and just look at the recipes.

Anne glanced at Bebo, who was eating happily, and flattened her mouth - a woman's self-esteem

The last dish was put on the table, and Nost sat down to eat it. I saw that the little goddess on the other side was a little sullen and poked the veal steak on the plate, "Isn't it to taste?" ”

Luo, who was sitting next to Anne, naturally picked up Anne's plate and gave her the portion he had cut, touched Anne's head and smoothed her hair, "Eat." ”

"No, it's delicious." Anne, who was haired, ate obediently.

(o ゚▽ ゚)o☆ goddess is so cute! The villain inside Nost was screaming in the face. Then he received a death gaze from the captain _(:зゝ∠)_ and always felt as if he had discovered something terrible-

+-+-+-+-+-+-

Looking at the elixir that was gradually precipitating in the test tube, and listening to Luo talk about the reason why he was here, Nost fell silent. There is nothing wrong with being a pharmacist, but he prefers to study those that have special effects, and he can also get his hands on general diseases, but he does not study much of the deeper things, after all, his dream has never been to be a doctor.

Luo didn't think that he could find a solution all at once, if it was so simple and successful, then Frévance would not be destroyed.

"I know there's a place." Nost walked to the side of the bookshelf and began to rummage through it.

"Huh? Where. ”

"The Institute of Medical Research in Brilanca."

"Medical Institute?"

"Yes, there it is."

"Found it." Nost placed an old tin box on the table in the real room, and a hint of nostalgia flashed in his eyes, "My mother used to be one of the researchers. ”

"The Brilanca Institute of Medical Research is located in Flora, the royal capital of Brilanca, directly under the royal family, and has the largest medical library in the country. Every six months, we recruit researchers, and if you can pass the examination, you can become a researcher, receive a research grant, use the facilities of the institute, and obtain higher research permissions if you can have certain research results. ”

"In that kind of place, not everyone can be qualified." Luo raised an eyebrow, and his gaze fell on the tin box that Nost had found in his mouth.

"Well, it's a matter of course to share the captain's worries."

"Then it's decided, go to Flora." -

+-+-+-+-+-+-

"Bebo, did you see my sword?"

Luo walked out of the kitchen and saw that the sword that had been placed in the hall was missing.

"I saw Anne go out early in the morning with it and the puffs." Bebo pointed out the door.

Annie? Luo frowned, but didn't think much about it, "Beibo, get ready, we're leaving." ”

"Eh, is it so fast?"

On the other side, Anne and Puff stand in front of a weapons shop in town.

"This is it."

"Welcome, little girl."

Seeing that a guest came to the door, the boss, who was still dozing off, immediately woke up and greeted him.

"Boss, can you make a custom scabbard here?" Anne placed the knife wrapped in cloth on the counter.

"Absolutely." The boss went around to the counter, took a look, and was attracted by the clear light of the blade, it was really a good knife. If only I could......

"I brought the main materials, and the style was drawn on the drawings." Anne handed a bag and a drawing to her boss, "This should be enough as a reward." ”

Anne placed the palm-sized ruby flower she had picked yesterday on the counter.

The boss's eyes straightened, "Enough is enough." ”

"I'm going to get it as much as I can, and," Anne winked and smiled, and Puff exhaled a puff of acid mist, and a row of daggers hanging nearby was immediately corroded into scrap metal by the strong acid, "Don't try to play tricks." ”

"Absolutely not! Absolutely not! The owner of the weapon shop immediately put away his little thoughts, nodded quickly, and measured the number, "I'll go and help you find the master who made the scabbard now, you can come and get it around three o'clock in the afternoon!" ”

No wonder he was so generous, it turned out that the compensation was counted. The owner of the weapons shop sent Anne away to tears, and had to go to the forge without stopping.

"Blu Blu Blu, Blu Blu Blu."

"Huh?" Anne sat on a stone bench on the side of the street with the sword she had just retrieved, and when she heard the phone bug ringing, she stopped what she was doing and picked up the phone bug: "Luo? ”

"Anne, go straight back to the ship, we're going to Flora, the royal capital of Brilanca."

"Now?"

"Ah, if you leave now, we'll be there in the evening."

"yes, okay."

Hanging up the little phone bug, Anne finished braiding the last tassel knot in her hand, wrapped the sword again with cloth, and flew lightly on her toes, "Let's go, Puff." ”

"Puff~" Puff spread her wings and flew with Anne towards the place where the ship was moored.

By the time Anne arrived, Rowe, Bebo, and Nost were ready to set sail, and ah, Nost was almost fainting.

"Sure enough, as Lifa said, once you get on the ship, it's completely gone." Anne bent down to look at Noster, who was lying unconscious on the deck, and reached out and poked.

"Stop playing, Annie, let him get up." Law opened his mouth to save Noster.

The lying corpse of Noster struggled to give Law a thumbs up: Good job, Captain!

"Hahaha, actually, Noster will be fine if you go inside the cabin." Anne took out a silver bracelet she had bought on the street from her small bag and put it on Noster's hand, "I've carved balance magic into it, so it should be fine." ”

"Ah, really." Nost sat up, shook the silver ring in his hand, stood up and walked again, "I'm really not dizzy at all!" ”

- Hello everyone, my name is Noster, ah, this one has already been said. Today my little goddess cured me of seasickness for many years, and I would like to express my gratitude to the goddess with a hug.

Then I was beaten by my captain, a cat, and a bear-

This chapter is not finished-

Staring at a large bag, a bear slap print, and a meow paw print, Nost was dragged by Bebo to help with the sails.

"Where did you run early in the morning?"

"Hehe~ I'm not lazy." Anne hooked a strand of hair behind her ear, and Puff lay on Anne's shoulder and wagged her tail, "By the way, I got this for you." ”

Luo took the sword handed over by Anne, and felt a lot lighter in his hand. The cloth was ripped off, revealing the black cross-engraved scabbard. The obsidian-infused scabbard is hard and reveals a jade-like texture.

The scabbard is decorated with a section of red cord and ended in two tassel knots. The damaged gauntlets were also repaired, finely decorated with a circle of fluff, and the hilt of the sword was carefully wrapped with bandaged gauntlets.

"Look at you and plunge headlong into the real yàn room, you don't look like someone who has time to fix it." Anne tilted her head and smiled, "How is it, are you still satisfied?" ”

"It couldn't be better." Luo tried, and the sword was put away.

"That's great." Anne put away the fallen strips of cloth, "Why do you suddenly want to go to Flora?" ”

"The largest central medical institute in Brilanca is in Flora." Lowe rested his sword on his shoulder and told Anne about his and Noster's plans.

A month later, Flora's Central Medical Research Institute will conduct a semi-annual selection assessment. Nost and I will go to participate. ”

"Luo ......" Anne looked at Luo with some concern, she didn't see Luo's pain in illness. In the past four years, although the ability of the fruit of the operation has helped him survive again and again, Anne is really tired of the powerlessness of not being able to help.

"I've never been alone." Luo's hand landed on Anne's shoulder, patted it gently, and the corners of his lips curled, "Don't worry. ”

"Hmm." How could it not be worried.

Since they might have to stay for a while, Luo and his party drove the boat to the dock in the harbor, and paid a deposit in advance to ask someone to help take care of and care for the ship. Then he went to the city and rented a house as a temporary base.

Brilanca is one of the world's most famous medical developed countries, and its National Library has a rich collection of books. Taking advantage of the fact that Noster's mother used to be a senior researcher, Nost and Luo successfully applied for a debit card in the library, and plunged into it, unable to get out at all.

As the capital of Brilanca, Flora is not only prosperous, but also has the romance and beauty of the flower capital. Thanks to the naval base stationed in a corner of the city, the city is peaceful and peaceful, at least on the surface, and few pirates will make a big fuss here.

What no one expected was that they would stay in Flora for nearly three years.
