Saintess’s Water

We attacked Nisaraki, the town that had been occupied by the trolls.

“Master. I went and yeehawed every last troll without leaving a single one behind.”

The robot maid returned to us.

Her eyes were sparkling, and she looked so excited and delighted.

Wow… what a pain.

She was giving off a really strong “praise me” vibe…

“I yeehawed them!”

“Yes, yes, good girl, good girl.”

She was so annoying that I gave her some half-hearted praise.

“Yeehaw!”

Even that alone made her beam with joy.

How dirt-cheap was this thing’s self-esteem…? Good grief.

“Now then, all that’s left is treating the injured and repairing the broken town.”

“B-but, Saintess-sama.”

The dwarf Teteroro asked fearfully.

I was not a saintess… but I would set that aside for now. It was too much trouble.

“The town is in ruins, and there are many injured. Do you have enough potions?”

Well, it was true that making potions from scratch took time and effort.

“No problem at all. We’ve got Sui-chan here. All right, everyone, let’s go.”

“““Yes!”””

We filed into the ruined town.

It was a burned-out wasteland as far as the eye could see.

Well, of course it would turn out like this.

“We’ll do it all at once. Sui-chan, come here.”

“…!”

Snap!

Sui-chan, the Water Spirit, approached me.

I took out a magic potion I had prepared in advance from my storage.

“Here, Sui-chan. Drink this.”

I handed the potion to Sui-chan.

After she gulped it down…

She broke into an amazing smile.

“Is it good?”

“…………”

Nod, nod.

Daphne-chan interpreted for her, saying, “She says, ‘This is the first time I’ve ever had such delicious medicine!’”

Daphne-chan could hear the voices of all kinds of living creatures. Amazing.

“So, Sui-chan. Could you sprinkle water over the whole town, like giving it a shower?”

Sui-chan nodded and released water from her hands.

As rain pattered down all around us…

“!? This is amazing! The broken town is going back to the way it was!!!!”

Yep, it looked like it was working properly.

“Saintess-sama, what in the world is this?”

“What I had Sui-chan drink was a Reverse Potion. It’s a potion that returns broken inorganic matter to before it was broken.”

“B-but… what does that have to do with this rain?”

I stroked Sui-chan’s head.

“Water Spirits have bodies made of water. They absorb the properties of the drinks they drink and change their constitution.”

“I see… By having her drink the potion, you turned her body into potion. Then you had the young lady use the potion inside her body to make rain fall.”

That was exactly right.

“A-amazing… The potion is amazing too, but understanding a spirit’s nature that deeply and applying it like that… That’s not something just anyone can do.”

“Indeed! Of course! My Lord is amazing!”

Goodness, being praised by Toka-chan made me blush.
