Im gonna hurl. If i had to guess its either damage to the capital(?)s sewage system that leaked into the nearby water supply or its intentional.

Tbh, how do you NOT know your water is contaminated at that point?
Like, I get it water can get odourless & colourless stuff in it but sewage water? It usually stinks.
Also, people not boil the water? I'm not nure what kind of fantasy but boiling water to make it safe is the go to for many isekai. Unless this one opts for "historical" "realism" so people just drink alcohol all the time

I won't remember the details, but there was something that happened in London (if I'm not wrong), way back, about a pump that was contaminated or something like that and it took some serious investigation to discover it. Source: "England: The Broad Street Pump" videos in YouTube by Extra History might show some good info about it.

This skill-specific condition would mean death sentence to that village

Ugh... this is bringing back some horrible memories... When I was a teen our camp's water got some sewage contamination (was faint enough that a human couldn't smell or taste it). Almost everyone got sick but the symptoms were vomiting and diarrhea, not numbness in the limbs.

Thank you for the release

Most likely it's Dysentery. And yes, drinking water contaminated with sewage would cause vomiting, diarrhea, and all sorts of gastrointestinal issues rather then the coughing shown in the chapter.

It's actually rather common in 3rd world countries, especially where animals bath and water near villages and small towns.

Conversely in first world countries it can happen when private wells are contaminated by a septic drainage field leaching into the watertable or flooding causing havoc. If you are ever told that water is non-potable, it was likely contaminated with either sewage and pesticides/fertilizers.

Boiling water is actually very expensive from an energy standpoint when your primary/only source of fuel is wood, it's why bathing was something reserved for royalty/nobility. It would be more realistic to say they should just have a soup based diet since it would serve two functions that way.

To my understanding Well water is normally safe to drink because it has been filtered through miles of porous rock as it flows through the underground aquafer. On the other hand River water needs to be boiled because it is easily contaminated by animals and parasites.

I think it depends on the specific source of infection present in the sewage water. Dysentery is caused by one kind of bacteria, while Cholera is another sewage related infection that's caused by a different kind of bacteria. Then there's the deadly poop snails that cause Schistosomiasis, of which coughing is a symptom, that kills anywhere from 5,000 to 200,000 people a year.

tl;dr there's more than one way to die from contaminated water, and in a fantasy isekai world it's believable that the diseases could be slightly different.

Please please please for once just let it be bad plumbing rather than someone sabotage the well.

 

[Aqua_Mizue]

Thanks for the chapter

 

[werternut911]

What's that, Lassie? [DEADLY SEWAGE] fell into the well?!
