Magi Craft Meister Chapter 180

Volume 8 - Chapter 10 – Medical Treatment

08-10 Medical Treatment

Mine was seriously injured and on the verge of death. To begin with, Jin used healing magic.

“[Cure].”

Anyhow, it looked like there wasn’t a moment to waste. It was good that the knife stuck in her abdomen hadn’t come out. If it had come out in the river, there would’ve probably been major bleeding due to the added water pressure.

“[Cure].”

Jin gave first-aid by piling up healing magic.

He confirmed that Mine was still breathing and,

“Is there a doctor…A healer around this area?”

He asked the curious onlookers that had gathered.

“There’s a place a bit downtown from here.”

One of them said, and,

“Excuse me, but could someone go over there and call that person to help?”

Jin then said, but,

“Oh, I’ve got errands to do though.”

“I’ve got to be home soon.

“I can’t.”

And so forth, everyone said, leaving Jin by himself. Actually, just the middle-aged woman who had told Jin about the healer’s location stayed behind.

“What a heartless bunch…”

Jin muttered and,

“That was to be expected. From the start, the people living on this street are a mixed bag, you see.”

The woman said.

“But more importantly, we ought to take out this knife.”

As soon as she said that, she pulled out the knife in one go.

“!”

It must’ve been painful, as Mine who was thought to be unconscious spasmed a little.

“What are you–!”

“[Heal].”

But without a moment’s delay the woman chanted Shouro Empire-style healing magic, keeping bleeding at its minimum.

“If you let something long like that stay in for a long time, it becomes unremovable, you see.”

This was because the muscle tissue would twine around it and stick to it.

“You are?”

Jin was impressed by her skills.

“Oh, I’m that healer, Sally Milsson.”

It turned out that luckily the healer had been among the onlookers.

“But this is a problem. It’ll be tough carrying this wounded fellow with just the two of us. Tough mainly in the sense that it’ll impact her health.”

“Leave it to me. …Reiko, go over there for a bit and call ‘Elm’ and ‘Ash’ of the SP here.”

“Yes.”

As removing [Stealth] here would be too suspicious, the invisible Reiko gave a short reply and went behind a tree growing on the riverbed where she summoned Elm and Ash.

“Sister, you called?”

At first, the SP also called Jin ‘Father’ and Reiko ‘Elder Sister’, but while on duty they had been made sure to call Jin ‘Chief’ and Reiko ‘Sister’. This was one of Jin’s strange ideas.

“Please act according to Father’s instructions for the time being. Thank you for your hard trouble.”

“Yes, Sister.”

Then Reiko came back along with Elm and Ash.

“Good work. Elm and Ash, please carefully lift her up and carry her. For the destination, just follow us.”

“Yes, Chief.”

Sally Milsson was surprised seeing the two golems obeying Jin’s orders.

“You’re terrific, huh. Having two golems as fine as these. But it’s a big help. Well then, please raise her gently.”

Elm and Ash put their hands under Mine’s unmoving body and carefully lifted her. It was imperative that they carry her while maintaining as much as possible a posture that didn’t affect the wound in her abdomen.

“That’s right, now follow me please.”

Following Sally they crossed the riverbank into downtown. Although Elm and Ash could be said to be unusual, in a town where plenty of golems were used daily they did not catch many gazes from the passers-by.

“It’s to the right of that corner. Ah, there, see.”

Sally’s healing clinic was a tree minutes’ walk away from the riverbank. On the small door ‘Milsson Healing Clinic’ was written.

“Yes yes, go over there and lay her down, mh-hm, that’ll do.”

They laid Mine down on the examination table and Sally immediately started her medical exam.

“Bones broken in the right wrist and arm, huh. The stomach wound is…Hey you, step out for a moment.”

She was about to take off Mine’s clothes when her hands stopped, and she advised Jin.

“Ah, yes.”

Jin escaped along with Reiko to the neighboring room that was similar to a preparation room. Then,

“Reiko, try contacting Laozi. See if he can detect Elsa’s whereabouts.”

“Yes, understood.”

For a while Reiko was silent, contacting Hourai Island with her internal ManaCom.

Then after about two minutes.

“Got it. There appears to be two similar responses. One is in Ikasanaato. The other is in a location 20 kilometers upstream of River Torres.”

After hearing that, Jin made a guess.

“Hm. The reaction in Ikasanaato is most likely the dagger that was left behind. So in that case, the other reaction would appear to be Elsa.”

At that moment he heard Sally call him from the other room. Jin quickly returned to the treatment room.

“What’s wrong?”

Sally was standing there with a grim look on her face.

“It’s critical. I removed the knife. Closed the wound. Expelled the water she breathed in. Healed the fractures too. However…”

Jin took a look at Mine’s face. It was a bloodless white. Jin guessed that most likely the knife wound reached her internal organs. He had heard that because the liver, the spleen, and such had high concentrations of blood vessels, stopping bleeding there was difficult.

Jin judged that to be the case from the lessons about on-site first-aid which he had once taken during his time as a factory worker. Probably in this world that didn’t have surgical techniques wounds in internal organs were fatal.

“At this rate…She’s in danger.”

Sally had an extremely sad expression on her. As expected, not being able to save a patient must bitter.

“If only there was… Restorative medicine…”

“Restorative medicine?”

“Yeah. But drink-type medicine is highly expensive. Alchemists in themselves are scarce, so it can’t be helped, but if only we could have her drink some of that there would be a chance.”

Jin had the experimental restorative medicine in his pocket. But it was still a trial product, and without making human experiments it would forever stay that way.

“What are her chances if recovery if she stays like this?”

Jin asked, just in case. After thinking about it for a little while, Sally replied,

“Not even one in ten. More precisely, at this rate if she doesn’t return to consciousness she’s as good as gone.”

Jin stopped worrying and took the restorative medicine out of his pocket.

“There’s something like a restorative medicine in here, but I don’t know how effective it is.”

He said honestly and,

“Let me see.”

He handed it to Sally, who then seemed to study it in various ways. Finally,

“[Analyse].”

She used analysis magic. Because this magic couldn’t analyze things one had no understanding of it would be pointless for Jin to use, but in the case of Sally,

“Y-you! Where did you get this!?”

She excitedly moved closer to press Jin for an answer. Jin assessed the situation and,

“Is it effective? If that’s the case then leave that talk for later, please use it!”

He said. Being told that, Sally blushed a little and nodded.

“R-right. It’s as you say. I’ll do it at once.”

She said, poured about a third of the contents into a feeding cup, and held it to Mine’s mouth.

“Please drink it…”

About half of the liquid in the cup was spilled, but somehow she was able to have her drink the other half.

Doing so, the result was dramatic.

A red tinge appeared in her once-white face, and her disordered breath turned back to normal.

Sally examined Mine’s pulse from her wrist too and,

“Mh-hm, it seems she’s no longer in danger.”

She said and breathed a sigh of relief.
