After a whole week of work, Keitaro held a small unassuming pill in his hand. This pill was the prototype of which he was going to build on for the next six months or so before he arrived in Japan.
There were a lot of tests that he needed to conduct before making sure that this pill was market-ready.
He could probably make a shit ton of money with this invention alone, this would help a lot of jujutsu sorcerers on the field that were unable to get with a doctor in time.
With this pill, they now have the ability to save their own lives, a pill that could stop so many people from dying.
A pill that he was 100% the jujutsu higher would try to monopolize and keep to themselves.
Keitaro however had a backup plan for this, even if they were able to find his recipe for it, they only had 3 ingredients, and the making of this pill needed a fourth ingredient.
An Ingredient at this moment in time that he had a monopoly on, was Nature energy.
He was sure that even if he did teach them how to control nature's energy, none of them would be able to achieve it.
After all, they were way too tied to curse energy in order to be able to make use of this new form of energy.
Plus nature's energy requires extreme control, control near the level of someone who has the six eyes.
Long story short, they would be unable to do it like he does, and thus he could sell it to them at a ridiculous price.
He was taking around the ballpark of 40 million yen for 1 one of them.
Did it sound like he was scamming them, yes, yes he was.
The other option was to make it accessible to any jujutsu sorcerer that would need this pill, however, make it as hard as possible for any higher-up or people of a clan like the Zenin clan to gain a monopoly over it.
There was much stuff he could do to stop that, there was the idea of just plainly making a binding vow with those old geezers.
If he could not do that, welp Gojo exist and he also exists.....if a higher-up whole clan were to just vanish in one night, he was sure they would be pretty compliant.
He knew no matter what he did, he would not be able to stop people from the black market of the sorcerer world get some of his pills, and try to make a cheap knockoff of them.
"Why am I even thinking so hard, without me they can't produce this..."
"That right, I have the monopoly over it!"
This was a good thing and a bad thing.
It was a good thing because it meant that the higher-up members of the 3 noble families would have to get their supplies from him.
It was a bad thing because well he would be stuck making those by himself.
Those pills weren't cheap to make, and the process of making them to a shit tone of time.
Unless he could automate it...
Keitaro's eyes went toward a blank piece of paper and some ink.....
He was getting a very good idea.
However, he had an even better idea.
"No matter how good those pills are, they won't save you if you have a hole in your chest"
Keitaro took a deep breath as he started scribbling some stuff down in his notebook, he could this experiment as the prototype for everything.
If he could find a way to infuse reverse curse energy directly into the pills it would be good, having more natural energy in there for a bigger boost.
Depending on the Ce, Ne, and plant-based medicine that was in the pill, the result could change depending on how much of each there was.
For this pill, the prototype, there was a larger amount of curse energy in there compared to Nature energy, the plant aspect to it was only about 50%, the CE was around 45% while the nature energy was sitting somewhere at 5%.
The natural energy would buff the healing factor of the herbs while the curse energy would help the body heal faster than usual.
Now his question was, what if instead of curse energy, he used reverse curse energy?
He would be applying the healing right from the get-go and thus could lower the percentage of the plants and probably up the dose of natural energy in order to balance it out properly.
If he found the right percentage for everything, he could even make pills that could be used in combat to boost people's awareness.
However, those pills would probably have a higher dose of curse energy and natural energy due to them being more combat-based than anything else.
His goal for now was just to make about 600 pills that would be good enough so that even if Shoko were to go missing for a year, they would not need her immediate help.
A/N....Below is what Keitaro has written in his notes.
Procedure for Cursed Energy Pill Creation
Ingredient Preparation:
Gather necessary herbs (ginseng, goji berries, etc.) and subject them to a rigorous purification process to remove impurities.
Grind herbs into a fine powder, ensuring consistency.
Cursed Energy Infusion:
Create a concentrated sphere of cursed energy, maintaining precise control over its intensity.
Gradually infuse the cursed energy into the powdered herbs, ensuring even distribution.
Add a trace amount of natural energy to stabilize the mixture and mitigate potential side effects.
Pill Formation:
Mold the infused mixture into small, spherical pills.
Allow pills to dry and harden for optimal stability.
Quality Control:
Test each pill for purity, potency, and stability.
Discard any pills that do not meet the required standards.
Storage:
Store pills in a cool, dark place to preserve their potency.
Dosage and Administration:
Recommended dosage: One pill every 4-6 hours as needed.
Do not exceed the recommended dosage. Consult a medical professional (me) for any adverse reactions.
Potential Improvements:
Experiment with different herbs and their combinations to enhance specific effects (e.g., increased strength, stamina, or mental clarity).
Explore the use of different types of cursed energy to create pills with specialized functions. Develop a timed-release mechanism to prolong the effects of the pill.
