The One Possessed by Evil Spirit Left the Cage

 Falma de Médicis, shop owner of the Diversis Mundi Pharmacy and the Royal Court Apothecary, was the first member of the Pharmacy Guild and also the de facto Guild Master. Apricum per Foliis Pharmacy was renovated after two months.

 Knight Guards in plain clothes were dispatched from Diversis Mundi Pharmacy, their order was to guard this shop with scrutiny.

 A few days ago, to improve PR, leaflets were spread out, indicating that Diversis Mundi Pharmacy had opened a new pharmacy which they recognized as a business partner. Patients who had relatively mild symptoms with their chronic disease would be sent to Apricum per Foliis Pharmacy.

 Pierre suddenly became anxious, wondering if any customers would come. Will the customers come from Diversis Mundi Pharmacy since they were selling almost the same medicine? Will he be okay without Falma?

 His anxiety just went on. The other day, Pierre couldn’t sleep a wink.

 But, how about just open it now?

 Pierre sniffed as he opened the gates with trembling hands, and bowed to the customers deeply.

 “Welcome to Apricum per Foliis Pharmacy.”

 After that, Pierre was entrusted by Falma and was inaugurated as the Guild Master of the Pharmacy Guild. The new Guild Master Pierre was so dissatisfied with the way that the Apothecary Guild conducted business that he personally recruited apothecaries who were on the brink of closing due to poor sales, and increased the members of the Pharmacy Guild to seven.

 After all, the formulation they learned from the two months of training from Falma showed that those medicines were indeed effective.

 Previously, this was an uncommon occurrence.

 The patients trusted the apothecaries with words of gratitude, as the apothecaries prescribed medicine tailored for the patient.

 Pierre thanked Falma when they came across each other. It was also thanks to that day when his daughter was suffering from influenza and the nearby clinic of Doctor Donald.


 Meanwhile in Diversis Mundi Pharmacy.

 Lotte looked worried as she was looking at Falma that fell asleep while he was organizing medical records.

 While Ellen was looking down on the exhausted Falma, she was worried that although Falma had the ability to heal people, was there really a medicine that could heal him? Falma said that both medicine and poison wasn’t effective on his body.

 “Eh? What are you talking about Lady Eléonore!?”

 “No, this is nothing. Thinking about the patients who are suffering, don’t you think it’s an injustice to leave them alone?”

 “At least, we should be able to do something about the procurement of materials, we want Falma to devote himself to medical treatment and compounding.”

 “Despite that, there is almost nothing that little Falma cannot synthesize. I believe I can compound alone in the fourth floor laboratory, but he won’t even show me the methods or teach me. I already asked several times. Although I could help him, it’s frustrating.”

 Falma raised his half asleep face while the desk left a mark on his forehead. Lotte covered Falma’s shoulder with a stole so he won’t get cold.

 Ellen was rubbing the mark on Falma’s forehead with her fingers.

 So although this time he should be spending his life not overworking, Falma admonishes himself for not doing it that way.

 As to Falma’s daily work schedule, 

Diagnose difficult patients that Ellen can’t handle, then write a prescription and give it to Ellen Make raw materials to be used on medicines for Diversis Mundi Pharmacy and each member of the Pharmacy Guild, the specialty cosmetic store Medique, and the specialty Dental clinic 8020.  Regular examination for the Empress, the Prince, and the courtiers. 

 As for the things that occur irregularly: 

Public health lecture hosted by the Empire.  Management of Pharmacy Guild  Holding of training for junior apothecaries, and distributors lecture.  Coaching the member stores of the Pharmacy Guild. 

 “Hey, aside from me, you should increase the apothecary in Diversis Mundi Pharmacy, why not take in an apprentice? Once you put up a system to teach the next generation, your life would become easier.”

 Soon, the pharmaceutical pharmacy will rise, so Falma was thinking of attracting local and foreign talented engineers and researchers, and will try to teach them little by little the necessary pharmaceutics to manufacture medicines.

 Ellen was Bruno’s best apprentice, she was also an excellent First Class Apothecary that she had three apprentices. Because she was busy helping in the pharmacy, she didn’t pay attention to them anymore and entrusted them to Bruno, she said that he may employ them for the pharmacy.

 Since Falma became an independent Royal Court Apothecary, he thought that he was ready and it might be okay to borrow his father’s influence and position. His father also may mutually benefit from him.

 Ellen wanted to push forward the preparation much earlier.

 Without the laboratory equipment for organic synthesis to make medicines, the factory won’t operate.

 “Because I want to request something of unusual shape.”

 “Little Falma, only the best of the best engineers can realize your ideas.”

 “It doesn’t need to be the best, an engineer that have high degree of workmanship will be enough.”

 They decided to be introduced at once using Bruno’s connections. Because it takes time to make the tools. The factory wasn’t complete yet, but if they don’t place the request now, it won’t make it in time.

 It was a lovely name that belies a remarkable engineer.

 When he inadvertently mumbled it, Ellen responded in shock.

 “Is that so…”

 “That is awesome, Master Falma! Once that happens, let us have a party! With a grand feast!”

 “Enough Lottelita, you are too hasty.”

 “Just a moment, she is resting right now since her body was ill.”

 “We are apothecaries, if there are no family physician or apothecary, let us examine the body of Archduke Mélodie.”

 “No, for such a reason…”

 Ellen approached the steward. As an apothecary, she yearns to be able to help some patients, so she ask how bad the condition was.

 Falma guessed that there are some complicated circumstances at the other side, so he promised to adhere to strict confidentiality.

 They were guided to a tall circular tower in the middle of the castle. Climbing the long spiral staircase, they finally arrived at the summit.

 No matter how you look at it, that place was a prison tower. At the center of the double-layer stone jail was a chair and the young Archduke Mélodie was restrained with a chain, crestfallen and dejected, she was sleeping. Her hands were tied behind her back, and her body was bounded tightly to the chair.

 Falma yelled when he saw the inhuman treatment.

 Ellen felt something different, and argued against Falma.

 One day, Mélodie began to scream cryptic messages. Arguing and being violent towards guests, breaking things, hitting her head on the wall, and going on a rampage. Mélodie was a powerful Fire Divine Art user. When she goes on a rampage, it was said that she burnt everything.

 They had to unwillingly do this.

 Falma precisely pointed it out.

 The steward was wiping the corner of his eye.

 Mélodie’s glossy silver hair was cut short. It was said that when she went on a rampage, her long hair was burnt.

 “Not all the time. Her condition changes from day to day, when her condition is bad, she is like this… Today her condition is not good. Her using fire arts when she goes on a rampage will lead to her self destruction, so she had to be confined to this double-layered room.”

 Falma asked the steward and wrote down Melodie’s medical history, age, eating habits, lifestyle, and the likes. He then activated his Diagnosis Eye. Falma suspects it might be an illness that concerns the brain.

 “We can cure her.”

 “Eh?”

 “You are going to exorcise the evil spirit? With the power of the Medicine God?”

 “It’s not an evil spirit, it’s an illness. There is a cure for that.”

 No way!, Ellen was astonished.

 He turned towards the steward.

 “Please untie her chains and let her out of the prison. Also, serve her warm food and please lay her down on the bed.”

 Falma went to Mélodie”s place almost everyday listening to her story, doing delicate counselling, and made a rehabilitation program. Little by little, Mélodie began to regain her original personality. She stopped acting violently. By the time her hair grew a bit, she became gentle, and she began to show a smile.

 Mélodie, as the steward said, had a very gentle personality.

 “I will do some follow-up to prevent relapse, I will prescribe an appropriate medicine if there are signs of relapse.”

 Mélodie was satisfied.

 And so, one day, Mélodie asked Falma. Because she heard from the steward that Falma asked for Mélodie as the Medical Flame Engineer. During the time he was doing treatment to her, he never mentioned about the important matter.

 “If I am mentally stable, will you give me your request?”

 Glasswares and metal instruments that she had never seen before were drawn on the request form. Because the dimensions, materials and methods were all there, she understood how to make them.

 Falma was aware that it was a very hard challenge for her. It was good enough to make her aware of these things.

 “I will show you my best fire Divine Art and will definitely meet your demands.”


 Few weeks later, complex glassware to be used for organic synthesis that was requested was delivered to Diversis Mundi Pharmacy. The workmanship wasn’t inferior, it was more splendid than what Falma imagined.
