Volume 4 - Ch 1.4
Understood, today well try a treatment that doesnt hurt. Lets start by applying the anesthetic
I think the anesthetic worked
Mlodie showed Falma her hands
Understood
Falma left for the compounding room
Liquid nitrogen
Liquid nitrogen at -196 C was materialized into a low-temperature-resistant container and a cotton swab was dipped into the fluid. This caused the tip of the swab to freeze and maintain a super-low temperature.
Well then, lets freeze it
Falma returned to the store and applied liquid nitrogen on the warts on Mlodies hand using the swab. While prolonged exposure to liquid nitrogen is usually very painful, short bursts dont hurt as much. Furthermore, Mlodie is anesthetized, so she felt almost no pain at all.
Is it over already?
When Ellen returned from treating her patients, she found Lotte sitting on the stairs in front of the pharmacy.
Lotte-chan, what happened here?
In front of the pharmacy were numerous snowmen which Lotte had absentmindedly built with the snow that had fallen onto the ground. They were so beautiful, they seemed like they would come to life.
However, as a result Lottes hands had turned red and swollen.
Oh my, you built all this with your bare hands even though your guardian deity isnt the water god what happened?
I got immersed in building the snowmen, and now my hands really hurt
Lotte sadly sniffled
Aaaa! Dont go inside, Ellen-sama!
Oh, whys that?
Thats- Mlodie-sama is inside right now with Falma-sama
So hes treating her, right? Whats wrong with that?
Lotte was flustered
Falma-sama is proposing right now so I dont think we should interrupt them
Ehhh? Proposing?
Ellens voice cracked out of shock at hearing those words
Falma-kuns proposing so there was someone he liked after all! Hes normally so quiet
Ellen still thought of Falma as a child, but at 12 years old it wasnt unreasonable to be thinking about marriage. Ellens father, the Count, had started introducing her to love stories little by little, so it was also at the back of her mind.
At that moment, Mlodie exited the pharmacy with her butler. She looked very happy and cheerfully bid farewell to Ellen and Lotte with a goodbye, thanks for taking care of me. Then she entered her carriage and departed for her mansion.
What do you think?
Ellen whispered to Lotte
She seemed happy, but I think thats natural. Aaaa, did Mlodie-sama accept Falma-samas proposal? Falma-sama is such a gentleman, even Mlodie-sama
It sounded as though Lottes very soul had escaped her. Suddenly, and with terrible timing, Falma spoke up from behind the two.
Thanks for running the errand, Lotte. Were you late? Ah, Ellens here too
It was no big deal. I think some kids came to play in front of the pharmacy which is why there are so many snowmen
Lotte was startled by Falmas question and came up with an excuse
Lotte-chan built so many snowmen that shell going to get frostbite
Ehhh let me see
Falma was surprised and reached out for Lottes hands. The warmth of Falmas hands that were nonchalantly extended caused Lottes heart to race.
When Falma heard the story, he laughed in embarrassment. It was a funny story.
I was just examining Mlodies hand, since there were warts
Really? Is that really true?!
Lotte trusted Falma, and her voice rose in delight.
What did you think it was?
Nothing in particular!
That day, Lotte was in such a good mood that she served more luxurious snacks that they could eat.
