## Synopsis

A month after Farma de Médicis's Pharmacy opens, Charlotte Soller goes out with questionaires regarding the establishment. Farma knows the problems and hopes to come up with solutions. The store has at least one regular customer, an old man named Jean Alain Gabin who buys sailor's candies and gets regular supplements of sailor's candies. Farma's parents come in disguise but Farma knows it's them right away. Béatrice de Médicis offers the suggestion of selling makeup to aristocrats. Farma's father makes sure his son doesn't sell white face powder but is keen on the idea regardless.

An attendant then comes in looking for a Pharmacist. Farma goes out to the attendant's master, a noblewoman who's increasingly pale. Using his Divine Eye, he determines that she has anemia along with an infection on ehr arm from repeated incisions. Once she's taken inside, Farma prescripes iron supplements and antibiotics. He learns from the noblewoman, Chloé de Châtillon​, that she wanted to woo the man she loved by having whiter skin so Farma offers to supply some safer makeup in a week's time.

While taking breaks to not die from overworking, Farma tests some product on himself to the shock of Eléonore Bonnefoi. He tells his staff of the poison of other white powders while having them test the product too. Chloe loves the new makeup and it gets the attention of the locals. Thanks to that the surveys Charlotte takes are more positive. However they soon realized that they would sell out so Chloe offers to make a subsidiary store to sell cosmetics. She named it Medique and hired female pharmecutists. Farma also brought the attention of the toxic face powders to the queen while also giving her some lip gloss to sample. He tells her the formulas for several products and promises to raise his prices.

Farma meets up with Louis later to teach him and the court about tooth decay and ways to prevent it. Normally they would pull out rotten teeth but Farma taught a way of maintaining teeth with the newly formed Technology Bureau. They also did lectures to the public once a week.

Six months after the pharmacy was founded, Farma and his family took a trip to Marseirre, to have some time off but also discuss business with Bruno's new territory. The territory was led by a butler of the family, Adam. Farma is allowed to go to the beach alongside Charlotte, Eléonore and Blanche. They dip thier feet in but Blanche gets carried away by the ocean current. Determined to save his sister this time, Farma goes out to save her and manages to using his powers of erasure. He gets his sister to safety while Charlotte and Eléonore are stunned by Farma's feat. To distract himself, Farma goes out with his father to see the fields and also expand Parallel World Pharmacy's reach in the form of a factory.

During the trip, the family pays a visit to Count Chillon to discuss land rights. After the banquet, Farma looked over him and learned about his silver overdose. He also cures Count Chillon's silver overdose by eliminating the silver in his system. Count Chillon tries to give Farma a life-sized doll as a reward but he declines. As Farma was meeting him, the inquisition learns about Farma's feat on the beach and decide to hunt him down.

Back in the capital, the pharmacy reopens only to have a wagon carrying sediment had ran into the pharmacy. Farma's relieved the compounding lab was unharmed and Cedric helps purify the putrid muck. Eléonore takes paitents at Medique while the regular customer's were appaled by the destruction and helped Farma clean up. Jean even came by with ten burly men to help.

Farma is then called upon to take care of a paitent in the middle of a field. Sadly it's a trap and Farma is surrounded by the inquisition led by Salomon. They presume Farma to be an evil spirit and try to excorsize him but it doesn't work because Farma isn't an evil spirit. The inquisition is baffled and then decides to eliminate him. Farma blocks thier attacks and even makes an ice barrier. He threatens them saying that he'd rather heal with his powers than harm. The inquisition realizes thier folly and mistakes Farma for the Panactheos itself. Farma then treats Salomon's broken leg by reducing the swelling and closing the wound. Once Salomon is treated, the queen's attendant, Noah, comes by to pick up Farma.

A few days later, Pierre wants his daughter, Marie, to be treated but has reservations about trusting Farma since his guild has outlawed Farma's pharmacy. Eventually he does conceed and Pierre is amazed with Farma's treatment process. Farma determines that Marie has influenza and gives a treatment. When the guild next meets up, Pierre gives his thoughts on Farma's treatment but is expelled shortly after. His business is taken from him after that and Farma is surprised that Pierre was another apothecary. Farma extends a hand to Pierre making him his first member of the new guild he's forming. Pierre is anxious but is happy when people come to his store. He's made into the guild master of the new guild as it expands.

Eléonore vows to help Farma and spread his knowledge to the next generation. Farma also treats an archduchess named Mélodie Le Roux and reveals that she suffers from halucinations. Once she's healed, she gives Farma some glassware to work with. Eventually Palle de Médicis is revealed to be coming home so Farma is ready for him with his new power. Sadly his wand couldn't keep up and breaks. Eventually he's given a new one by Salomon who visits every day. It has several abilities including being unable to be held by anyone other than Farm and levitation.

When Palle does arrive, Farma keeps his status as the owner of Parallel world Pharmacy a secret. Naturally Palle wants to fight Farma right away but Farma beat him leaving Palle with a cold. When he recovered, the two of them bonded over divine element science. Farma notes that some elements are their table of sorts but not all of them. Farma asks for a copy and while Palle is reluctant, he hands over a copy. Farma is relieved knowing that the future of medicine of this world is safe as Palle brags about the microscope that they 'developed.' On Sunday they go to the temple where Salomon is delighted to see Farma and talks about sanctuaries and evil spirits with him. Farma leaves with worries that he'll have to leave because of his divine power. When Palle leaves he talks about a rumor about an epidemic disease taking out an island. Farma is concerned and asks for a sketch of the cells of those infected.

Two weeks before the San Fleuve market opened, Farma got the sketch and it turned out to be Yersinia pestis or the Black Death. As Élisabeth II talks with her council about the empire, they mention selling Farma's goods at the fair. Farma talks with his father about the coming of the Black Death and that he has a cure made and it distributing it among the guild. Bruno and Farma bring up countermeasures to the Black Death to the empress about quarantine stations, restricting merchant passage, cleanliness measures and extermination of rats/fleas. Salomon also helped out with his purification wind.

Farma and Eléonore set up a sea quarantine and start the inspection. Only 2% of the Neder Kingdom's goods had the disease on them and they were eliminated using fire divine arts. The nobles quarrel about this quarantine and Eléonore is about to silence them when Jean Alain Gabin shuts them up with cannon fire. He's revealed to be the head of the scarlett navy and hopes the pharmacy will reopen after this incident. At the peak of the inspections, Adamn comes in saying that a ship had docked at Estacht Village. Farma goes himself and leaves the inspections to Eléonore. Eléonore is conflicted, but eventually Farma is allowed to leave on his flying wand.

Over in the capital city, Bruno meets with Professor Louise Casper about locating a micro-organism. Louise is surprised and mentions she has a flask of the specimen in her lab. She's overjoyed that she doesn't have to retire quite yet. Meanwhile Farma arrives at Estacht Village and makes a sanctuary like Salomon taught him. The people leaving are shocked and panick when Farma puts up a wall of ice. Farma calms everyone down by explaining that he'll do what he can to save the village. He seperates the village into three sections for the quarantined, ill and free people. There were a few who wanted the medicine first but were calmed down when the village guard took out thier blades.

Farma heads to the hospital where members of the clergy are already there. One of them recognizes Farma and allowed him to keep working. Farma saved a lot of people but not everyone. He also boosted the medicine's effects with another spell taught by Solomon, "Primeval Relief." The priests were in awe and asked if they could handle anything so Farma sent them to capture the smugglers. After giving instructions to the locals to not leave for several days and kill any rats, Farma left.

Admiral Jean ends up finding the ship that delivered the smuggled cargo and shoots it down because everyone on board is dead. Eléonore and her disciples continue the inspection and quarantine with Eléonore being depressed at her lack of skill compared to Farma. She decides to learn from Farma after the incident is over. Meanwhile Farma heals a family that got infected with the black death on the way to the smugglers. He arrives at the first set of smugglers after struggling to stand. According to the priests he was running out of divine power like stamina. Thankfully a bit of sleep could help him recharge so one of the priests gives him a ride while he recovers. He awakens when they find more smugglers with some cargo but one cart of goods is still ahead with some porters and holy knights. Farma is concerned about the holy knights and gives the smugglers medicine before allowing them to be judged by the law.

Back at the capital, Bruno and the empress increase the security. Pierre finds the plague in one shipment and heads to the gate only for it to be blown up. The holy knights send out white flying squirrels into the city so Pierre gives the order to give out the medicine to everyone. The smuggler merchants were treated and quarantined while the priests fought against the holy knights until Salomon showed up. When news of the attack reaches the castle, the empress is ready to defend her homeland but Bruno urges her to stay put because of the black death. Bruno has an idea of who the mastermind is: Camus de Sade, an old colleague of his who experimented on humans.

Meanwhile Charlotte is worried about the medicines of Parallel World Pharmacy but is forced to stay by Cedric. She does see Farma flying into the city and finding the squirrels. The squirrels are incinerated but a few people are infected. Farma eliminates the airborne infection with a divine art before making a downpour with his water. He arrives at the sixth gate where the holy knights didn't know about the black death. they were told to do it by a certain individual otherwise thier people would die. Bruno arrives, asks details of the individual and confirms it to be Camus. The holy knights then die to the black death and are then burned. Bruno says that Camus is in the capital.

Meanwhile Charlotte goes to check on the Pharmacy with Cedric. The first three floors are okay but noises are heard on the fourth floor. The pair are then attacked by Camus. Farma gets a chill and goes to investigate. He sees a dark shadow which is unfamiliar to him. He locates Charlotte and Cedric's bodies and begins trying to treat them from outside. They were infected with two poisons and Farma manages to cure them. He then crashes through the window and offically meets Camus. Camus is fasinated with Farma's compounds and tries to experiment with white phosphorus. Farma is angry and sa as he eliminates the white phosphorus as he determines he cannot heal Camus. After several punches including one from several stories up, Farma eliminates Camus and the evil spirit possessing him. Said punches and stab with the divine wand make a crater in front of the pharmacy. When all is said and done, Charlotte hugs Farma from behind welcoming him back.

The priests begin work on decontaminating the pit Farma made with holy water as Salomon mentions that getting rid of evil spirits was common and this one wasn't afraid of the sanctuary. Charlotte and Cedric are treated for thier wounds and make a complete recovery. Eléonore returns after the inspections were complete as Farma thinks about ways to reimburse the areas destroyed by his divine arts. Eléonore decides to help him by assisting him with treating his employee's wounds. After Farma makes more cures for the black plague he ends up passing out.

The city is divided up much like Estacht village. Everyone is given the medicine including the members of Pierre's former guild. Those who do not take it try to make thier own cure and end up dying including Varon. The Neder Kingdom was occupied by a temporary government until aid could be sent. Casper's research takes off and the San Fleuve fair begins.

After a month, Parallel World Pharmacy reopened and Jean was the first customer. The regulars returned as well. After another month the empress declared that the Black Death had been eradicated from the country. As a reward, Farma decides to get a hot spring that nobles and commoners can enter together.
