I’ve Been Reincarnated as a Tentacle Slime~ I Want to Live a Comfortable, Secure Life and Do Whatever I Want~ - Chapter 125

After the Magic Armor Guild, it’s time for the Apothecary Guild.

I have about 1 gold coin and 50 silver coins. I’ll need to start saving or earning more soon.

“Welcome to the Apothecary Guild.”

The receptionist at the Apothecary Guild was a fox-eared woman who appeared to be in her late 20s.

People in this world don’t seem to age easily, so appearances can be deceiving. Her real age is probably in her late 30s.

Her fox ears and hair were silver, and her long hair was tied up at the nape of her neck.

Her blue eyes were narrow and sharp, making her look like a capable, cool beauty. She’d look great with glasses.

“I was told you sell healing potions here…”

“Yes. We handle potions for HP, MP, and status condition recovery.”

HP and MP potions restore vitality and magical power, while status ailment recovery potions can cure conditions like poison.

“Which ranks of healing potions do you have for sale?”

“Low-level healing potions are always available. As for intermediate ones, we recently received the materials for MP recovery potions, so those are available, but others are still waiting for materials.”

Even for the low-level potions, the stock is not that high, so you can’t buy them in bulk.

“Then, how much are the low-level healing potions?”

“HP recovery potions are 10 copper coins, MP recovery potions are 20 copper coins, and status recovery potions are 25 copper coins.”

The materials can be obtained from floors 1 to 3, so they can be sourced cheaply and sold at a low price.

“Are the intermediate healing potions always in short supply?”

“Yes, that’s right. We just happened to get the materials for MP recovery potions recently.”

The material for the intermediate MP recovery potions is said to be the horns of a Wind Wolf―――― I wonder if that’s because I sold them to the Adventurer’s Guild before.

“What are the materials for the other intermediate healing potions?”

“The feathers of the Wind Bird from floor 16 are the material for HP recovery potions, and the leaves of the Treant from floor 22 are used for status recovery potions.”

It would be a good idea to increase the number of Monster Houses for these monsters in my dungeon.

Aside from the Treants, I haven’t intentionally expanded any Monster Houses for other monsters.

When I return to the dungeon today, I’ll talk to Gabe.

“Then, I’d like to buy 20 of each of the three low-level healing potions and―――― how much for the intermediate MP recovery potions?”

“The intermediate MP recovery potions are 2 silver coins each.”

Ten times the price, huh… I guess I’ll buy a few.

“Then, I’ll buy 10 of the intermediate MP recovery potions.”

“The total is 31 silver coins.”

I paid the silver coins and then asked a question.

“Can you explain the general uses as well as the more obscure uses for healing potions?”

“Sure. Of course, I can.”

Healing potions can be effective just by sprinkling them. They are highly versatile because they can be used when you can’t use magic or while using magic.

HP recovery potions are essential for those who can’t use magic.

Also, since you can sprinkle them, they are used for animal healing as well.

They are used for healing fast horses, carriage horses, and sick livestock.

One lesser-known use is for super recovery after muscle training.

Normally, healing magic restores health, but with HP recovery potions, it’s said that muscle mass increases as you heal. I guess it’s like a super-enhanced self-regeneration.

Status recovery potions are reported to also have effects on physical disabilities and mental disorders.

The lower-tier ones have little effect on these, while the intermediate ones work on minor things like wrist loss and mild mental disorders. The advanced ones are effective for major body loss, like arms, and severe mental disorders.

I’ll use an advanced potion for Christia’s arm, but what should I use for the nursery girls…?

“Psychic corruption is quite vague, isn’t it? For example, which recovery potion would help with mental disorders that can’t be healed by oneself?”

“For something that severe, it would be the advanced one. Intermediate potions only work for mental disorders that can be recovered from on their own over time.”

I see. Looks like we’ll all need to become advanced adventurers just to gather the materials.

“Thank you very much. This is a token of my appreciation.”

I asked Kouga to hand over a box of Treant fruit, and I gave it to the receptionist.

“Oh, this――――is it really okay for me to accept this?”

“Yes, please accept it.”

“Ah… thank you.”

The receptionist gave a dazzling smile in return.

“Well then, I’ll take my leave.”

“Yes, please come again.”

The woman waved her hand gently, sending me off.
