Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

Serloitte's fever was gone by the next day. She rises slowly and exhales heavily. She is still lethargic, but she is not immobile. I get off the bed thinking about this.

She feels as if she is floating in the air. I feel light and fluffy.

It must be the fever. Come to think of it, I have hardly eaten since the day before yesterday. That must be why I have lost weight. Thinking about such things, I slowly take step by step.

"Are you all right?"

I opened the door to my room and found my mother. On the table was a meal of mainly fruit. It was as if she had known in advance that I would wake up and come here. She was so well prepared that I couldn't help but think so.

I sat down on a chair and put the prepared meal in my mouth. The sweet fruits taste so good. I feel the fresh fruit juices running through my body.

"Thank you for the food."

It was the best meal I'd had in a long time. I silently lower my plate and express my heartfelt thanks to my mother, whose back is turned to me.

"Take a bath," she says.

With her back turned, she glanced at Serloitte and turned her back again.

She heads for the bathroom as ordered. The room assigned to her was fully equipped with a kitchen, a bath, a toilet, and a bathroom. Of course, it was not a room that a foreign student was allowed to use, but a room in a building originally constructed for the professors of the university. It was obvious that her status as the duchess of the Grand Duchy of Foal and the niece of the Grand Duke had an influence on her. Serloitte, fully aware of this, was grateful to Meilius, the rector of the university, and to Linos, the king of Agartha, and was eager to repay their kindness in any way she could.

Once in the bathroom, Serloit slowly undressed and stripped naked. A large bathtub was set up in front of her, filled with slightly hot water. This too had been prepared by her mother. ....... The thought made Serloitte's heart warm.

After bathing lightly, she dipped her body into the bathtub. The warm water enveloped her whole body. It was an indescribable feeling. She closes her eyes and immerses herself in the sensation. Serloitte's brain slowly begins to move.

The friendly flowers brought back from the Grand Duchy of Foal are injected with various poisons. Naturally, some of them have withered, but I am sure that they will revive. The roots of those flowers will never wither unless we literally eradicate them, because LV5 fire magic is the most efficient to completely burn out the roots in the soil.

Is there any way to make the roots of the flower disappear?

At this point, she stops thinking. Somehow, she has found the reason why the friendly flowers keep reproducing. Now we just need to figure out how to fix it. ....... Serloitte's heart was getting a little excited. Through her experience in her family's vegetable garden, she knew how interesting it was to find out the cause of a problem and solve it. It could be a job that could lead to the salvation of her homeland here in Agartha. For the first time in his life, Serloitte was trying to find the meaning of his life in this world.

"Yes."

Muttering to no one in particular, she stood up, picked up a towel that had been prepared in advance, and carefully wiped her body. Suddenly, she caught sight of her reflection in the mirror.

She thinks that she still looks as poor as ever. A skinny and scrawny body....... Her ribs protrude from her chest. Her feminine breasts are almost nonexistent. Looking at her body alone, some may mistake her for a skinny man. However, the thick pubic hair between the legs is only a female body because it does not have what should be a male body.

Until now, I have hated my body. The only person who has ever praised my body was Mataka. He was the only person in the world who I thought loved me, but I would never see him again. When she first realized this fact, she was saddened that no one would ever love her again, but now it did not matter anymore. She had found a new goal. At all costs, she had to get rid of Crimiana's interference. She had to eradicate the flower. A fire was beginning to burn in Serloitte's heart.

Her mother sensed the change in her. Until now, whenever she took a bath, she always shed tears. She cried desperately, but she could not hide the sobs that escaped from time to time. Since we came here to Agartha, we no longer hear her cries. Her mother already knew that her daughter had recovered. She felt that she had grown into a different person since her days in the Grand Duchy of Foal.

She was happy to see her daughter, who had been so shy in the past, trying to lead her life on her own. She had made up her mind to support her beloved daughter's future with all her strength, even if she did not show it in her face. When she came out of the bathroom, she would probably say that she was going to go to the university today. I would let her go without saying anything. However, I don't think she has fully recovered her strength. I should at least give her something sweet to keep her strength up. The mother picks up a fruit knife that is nearby.

She took a fruit knife from the side of the table.

At the same time, Mei and Sidhi were facing each other with wrinkles between their eyebrows at the residence in the imperial capital.

"Is it still no good? ......"

"Yeah. I haven't checked everything, but I have a gut feeling that it won't work. But it's just my gut feeling, I have to confirm it with my eyes in the end.

"No, if you say so, Siddy, then the experiment is probably a failure."

"Ummm . I checked the soil, and as far as the soil with volcanic ash is concerned, the roots are growing quite deep. Whether you burn it off or melt it, you'll have to go very deep to eradicate it.

"I see. ......"

May's gaze is unusually slanted downward to the left. This is a gesture she makes when she cannot think of a way out. It was the first time in several years that she had shown such a look, as she usually makes decisions on the spot. I am sure she has some ideas in her mind. But I am not sure if they will work or not. No, he thinks they will probably fail. He is not sure if he should really go through with such a thing or not. But on the other hand, this represents a crisis for the Grand Duchy of Foal and for the world. If this problem could not be solved, the possibility of the world falling into the lap of the Crimean Church would increase greatly.

Sidi, however, was surprisingly not worried. His intuitive feeling from the beginning that the problem would be resolved had not changed at all. Rather, the distance to the solution was very close. I even thought that this problem would be solved if I could find out one more thing. But what is this other thing that is missing? ....... Sadie's mind was filled with an indescribable feeling of frustration.

"Speaking of which, how is Mr. Serloitte doing ......?"

The question came unexpectedly from May. This intelligent person was still unable to make a decision. So, I am going to change the subject and think about this issue again. Sadie could see May's mind was going through the motions.

"She had quite a fever yesterday, but I think it will come out today."

"I see. Well then, let's hear what Mr. Serloitte has to say, and then we can take measures for the future.

Sadie nodded slowly at May's words.
