Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

Albe's condition went back and forth from then on.

He regained consciousness for a time, but soon after his heart rate gradually decreased. Since there was a strong possibility that his heart would stop at this point, Mei and her team continued to administer medicines from time to time, while applying recovery magic.

Even so, his heart did not recover and gradually weakened. It was clear that he would not be able to circulate blood throughout his body and that he would die. May and his team tried to restore his condition by administering a new kind of medicine.

In a sense, it was an experiment on the human body. However, it saved Albe's life, and as a result, this approach contributed greatly to the development of medicine in this world.

Originally, the drug created by May was to make the muscles of the body grow explosively in a short period of time. The side effects of the drug had not been verified at all, but now that Albe's case had occurred, the process of the side effects could be studied in detail.

For Albe, on the other hand, it was hellish suffering. He wandered on the verge of death many times, and each time he was pulled back to this world by a strong force. At the same time, the dreams he had in his sleep were always nightmares. He was so weak that he could no longer speak. The doctors did not stop treating him.

May was deeply troubled. The chances of his recovery were slim. The only way was for Linos to continue casting restorative magic, but he knew that it would be very difficult to extend his life to a lifetime.

She was well aware of Albe's continued suffering. In all honesty, she thought it would be better to let him die a peaceful death. However, if she did not develop a cure for this drug, there was a possibility of an attack using human life as a shield. In fact, she had received information that a certain country was planning to organize an assault force using this drug in order to gain an advantage in the war. May could not bear the thought of innocent people losing their lives because of something she had created. She decided to be determined and concentrate on prolonging the lives of the patients in front of her.

Linos, on the other hand, had his own reasons for prolonging Albe's life. The Kingdom of Labade and the Banalist Empire immediately sent emissaries to interview Albe. The emissary of the Kingdom of Labadee arrived early and interrogated Albe, but he kept his mouth shut and said nothing, and the situation was at a standstill. At the same time, the countries that had been affected by his poison were demanding his extradition, asking about the poison, and other things were happening that they had to deal with.

In particular, the Banalist Empire was very eager to take Albe in their custody at any cost, and sent a letter in a strong tone. Perhaps the empire did not care if Albe died on the road, but rather seemed to want to take his life as soon as possible.

Linos gave permission to interrogate him, but since Agartha was also about to be affected by the poison, he replied to the Banalist empire that he would interrogate Arbeh and find out what the poison was. This was an implicit refusal of extradition, and there was some tension between the two countries.

As for the poison, it was known to the Poseidonians that it was a masterpiece. Completely tasteless and odorless. Albe had created something that was impossible according to the conventional wisdom of poisons.

It was extremely difficult to elucidate the poison. However, with the addition of Escalina, the elucidation proceeded surprisingly fast.

The first thing she pointed out was the smell emitted from the poison. The smell was something only she could identify. She also pointed out that the poison had a color. From her story, Posehai and his colleagues were able to identify the substances that had these smells and colors.

As the poison became clearer, it turned out to be beyond imagination. Most poisons are made by mixing various poisons together, but the one created by Albe was made by chemical reaction.

Although he himself never talked about it, it was the unanimous opinion of the Poseidonians that it was probably created by chance. However, it was clear that a great deal of experimentation had been done to discover it.

Hearing this report, Linos sighed loudly.

"If he had the talent to create something like this, he would have gained fame if he had used it in the direction of saving people.

"People are often unaware of the talents they possess," he said.

Rico, who was standing in front of Linos, mutters.

"About myself, about my surroundings: ....... What we think we are and what others see are often very different. I, too, thought that my situation was unfortunate, but in hindsight, I was surrounded by great love. I wish I could have changed my ...... view of him, too. ......"

Linos nodded broadly at Rico's words. Rico opened his mouth with a determined look on his face.

"It seems that the interrogation by the emissaries of the Banalist Empire is over. I would like to talk to them as well.

"Right. Well, he won't talk. ......"

Rinos smiles bitterly at Rico, who smiles back and bows his head.

Rico smiled and bowed to Rinos.

Albe was dreaming. He was busy writing a paper in his room.

It was the great discovery of the century. A discovery so great that even his difficult father praised it. He would write a paper on it and present it to the world. It would probably shake the world. My fame will soar. My father wants me to follow in his footsteps. I'll have a big voice in the empire. Quick, finish your paper. .......

I can't write. It's frustrating. My writing is not keeping up with the developments in my head. I have to write fast. I forget what's in my head. ....... Come on, come on. .......

I woke up suddenly. A sense of despair wells up inside me, thinking that it was a dream after all. I have experienced this feeling many times. The only relief is that there is no one in front of me. Until the other day, when I woke up, I saw the faces of men dressed in some kind of luxurious costumes.

They were so snooty. No matter what they asked me, I stubbornly refused to open my mouth. How could they possibly know how I felt? The banalist emissaries, for example, tried to drag me off the bed, saying they would bring you back to the empire at any cost. The other men stopped them and were very angry with them. I thought it was a nice touch.

Albe smiles a little as he thinks about how painful it had been. Soon he felt a strong weariness and breathing became difficult. Now, even the slightest movement of his body caused him to experience this kind of pain. Without thinking, he closes his eyes and tries to regulate his breathing.

I think that death is near. And if it is, I want to go to the other world as soon as possible. But it seems that this is not allowed. How long will I have to suffer this pain? The sense of despair deepens.

Just then, I hear the door to my room open. Footsteps approach. Albe thinks that these footsteps sound like nothing he has ever heard before.

They were neither slow nor fast. They were coming toward him in a steady rhythm. It was a pleasant rhythm.

As the footsteps approached, a pleasant scent tickled my nose. Was this a woman?　Perhaps it was the scent, but I had the feeling that she was a woman of a very high status.

The footsteps stopped. Albe slowly opened his eyes. There was the goddess. .......
