Anime Episode 07

"The Boy with No Shadow and the Inquisitors" is the 7th episode of the "Isekai Yakkyoku" Anime adaptation.

Farma confronts Grand Temple Inquisitor Salomon, and his sudden conflict with the Inquisition takes a surprising turn.

Summary
In a flashback, Eléonore Bonnefoi teaches Farma de Médicis about the temple ranking above even the queen and how they give the power of divine arts to the nobility. She also mentions the office of inquisition that takes out evil spirits and heretics that abuse divine arts.

Back in the present, Salomon announces himself and demands that Farma step back. Farma obeys and is put into a binding circle. It doesn't work because Kanji Yakutani isn't an evil spirit. One of the officers uses fire divine arts but Farma creates a nitrogen barrier and eliminates the oxygen to extinguish the fire. Another officer uses sword dance aweiss but Farma eliminates the water. Farma expresses that he doesn't want to harm anyone, but Salomon wants everyone to obliterate him. The officers use a variety of divine arts, but Farma protects himself with an ice barrier. He blows everyone back while mentioning he wanted to solve this without using violence. Salomon is knocked off his horse and sees Farma's holy mark.

Salomon claims that he didn't see the signs and the person before them was the Panactheos. The officers quickly bow before Farma and apologize. Salomon is even willing to offer up his life as he broke his leg when he fell off his horse. He nearly pierces his neck with an iron dagger, but Farma stops him only wanting him and his pharmacy to be left alone. Farma looks at Salomon through the divine eye and suggests amputation. The injury glows red meaning it was the wrong treatment method, so Farma suggests reduction which was the correct answer. Farma is conflicted as surgical operations weren't his forte but there wasn't anyone else who could treat him.

Farma creates a stone examination table and tells everyone that he's going to treat Salomon. Everyone is naturally surprised that he is showing them mercy as Farma asks for a carriage to come as soon as possible. Farma explains the process to Salomon, and he gives consent to what he believes is a guardian deity. Farma creates a spinal tap to eliminate the pain and tests it with a chunk of ice. Salomon is amazed as Farma continues to treat the injury. Once Farma has completed the operation, he mentions that Salomon's life is no longer in danger and that he can be taken to the temple to recuperate. The officers are happy to be spared from punishment while Farma doesn't want anyone telling them of what happened. They comply as the carriage arrives.

A few months later, the new head bishop, Salomon, visits Parallel World Pharmacy to the surprise of Eléonore and Charlotte Soller. Salomon gives them a box full of treats as he expresses his gratitude to Farma. He explains how he climbed the ladder to become the head bishop to support Farma and to get rid of any rumors of a shadowless boy in the capital. Farma senses Salomon's hostility to anyone against him as he notices the extra escort. As Charlotte leaves to enjoy her treat, she finds Blanche de Médicis at the gate wanting to go shopping with her brother.

In the back room, Salomon presents Farma with a wand known as the Panac-Rhabdos, a sacred treasure of the guardian deity temple. Farma wonders if he should carry something that valuable but when he picks it up, it shines with divine light proving the sacred treasure has chosen him. Eléonore wants to carry it, but the wand passes through her hands and lands on the floor. It turns out the wand isn't from this world and only a divine entity could wield it. Farma realizes something and hovers on the wand for a bit amazing Eléonore and Salomon.

As Salomon's guard leave, Salomon mentions that the temple will not interfere with Farma's work. He cannot say the same for those who attacked the pharmacy. He also gives Farma a talisman to hide his divine nature, giving him a shadow. Farma is delighted and mentions he only wants to walk the same path as his friends and family.

While shopping with Blanche, he overhears some commoner pharmacists talking about how Parallel World Pharmacy is considered heretical. They can't sell their products as a result much to the common folk's dismay. Farma makes note of this and decides to make a compounder's guild to help others sell his products. He gets Medique on board as Cédric Luneau agrees to fill out the paperwork. Later that night, a commoner pharmacist, Jean Alain Gabin is distraught that he can't heal his ailing daughter.
