Sorry for the late chapter. My power has been off for the past six hours. Luckily I didnât fall asleep before it came back on. Enjoy!
When I was taking time with Ursch-kun in a line where I couldnât make much progress, Barbara walked from the front of the line with the robe she received. I stopped Barbara, who was about to pass by us. Barbara, who looked back at my call, came over to me.
âGood morning Barbara, you received the alchemy robe safely.â
âThatâs right. I came early and lined up, but the line didnât go well, so Iâm tired!! This is also because the head of the department will have an interview at the place where the robe is handed over!! Once you receive the robe, you know that you canât change the subject!!â
As usual, Barbara, the tsungire character exploded. But there are a certain number of people in the world who donât listen to precautions or explanations in advance, or donât think about it. It canât be helped.
âBy the way, does Barbara know if Marieta is back?â
It seems that the students who were supposed to talk to the Knights as related to the incident the day after that fire were temporarily protected by the Knights for a while. I thought I would be able to talk to Marieta soon, but it doesnât seem to work out somehow. But now that I think about it, it canât be helped protecting the students who may have some clues in a state where the demon king worship group that caused the incident has not been found. By the way, I still havenât grasped any clues about the perpetrators of the incident.
Barbara seems to have been able to visit when she handed over Bella to Marieta, who moved to the shelter of the Knights, so I asked if she knows anything.
âOh, it looks like sheâll be back this evening. Since sheâs a relative, it seems that Marieta told the Knights about me as an emergency contact. Thatâs why the Knights told me when she would come back. Itâs good to nominate a contact person in case of emergency, but why me? There hasnât been much contact. We just met for the first time in nine years when Bella was handed over the other day, right? Thatâs just a short time, isnât it?â
âAh. . . Marieta is an only child, so Iâm sure she thought Barbara was her sister and spoiled you.â
Rather, it seems that there was a life where they supported each other during the loop so far, so I guess she couldnât get rid of the feeling at that time. I guess there is little relationship in this world, but the noisy and caring image of other worlds is there.
While thinking so, when I cheated randomly, Barbara looked relentlessly with her cheeks red.
âThat girl is an idiot. I havenât apologized for the past yet, but I just met her again, so she easily trusts me and spoils me. Donât you think someone will deceive you someday? Youâre such a carefree child!!â
When Barbara said that, she turned around and ran towards the Department of Holy Magic building. She probably went to her sister Miriana.
But Barbara is right, Marieta is carefree even though she looped many times. There seems to be a sense of crisis, but even though sheâs repeated the same life dozens of times, she doesnât feel tragic. Itâs not that she doesnât have it at all, but itâs more of a weight. If it were me, my heart might have been broken a long time ago. Or itâs just hard to understand, maybe her heart is already a little broken.
Okay, letâs have her drink the lemonade item that recovers SAN value, letâs do that.
I am currently disposing of the contents of the [Closet] with Ursch-kun. I was able to dispose of a lot of costumes and equipment, but there are too many weapons and consumables, so I canât handle them. Iâm really having trouble disposing of legendary and mythical SS rare items and true rare items. By the way, the potions I got in the game are given to the adventurer guild and the Knights after checking the safety. Instead, I replenished the potion created by Ursch-kun in the [Closet].
I decided to give the lemonade to Marieta. Letâs have Marieta drink lemonade every day. To be honest, itâs hard just to loop, but in the meantime, there are harsh events such as running away from the evil hands of the villainess Isabella and the Dark Guild, confronting the Colors Collector, and the Colors Collector is actually the real father. You digest it every time donât you? Thereâs no way the spirit and soul are not worn out.
I killed time thinking about such a thing and chatting with Ursch-kun, and by the time I finally received the robe, it was past noon. I left the robe to Ursch-kun, and he suggested how to kill time until the evening when Marieta comes back.
âHey Isabella, since youâre here, letâs have lunch together.â
âThatâs right!! Itâs a big deal, so I want to have a meal with you. Where should we eat?â
Now that Iâve been with Ursch-kun, Iâm sad to receive the robe and separate. Of course I want to be with him a little longer.
So Ursch-kun invited me to sit at the fountain in the square in front of the Alchemy Department. This fountain is that, itâs Ursch-kunâs motherâs âlarge transition deviceâ that they used to move the golem in the event of the fire.
Itâs quite big when you look at it up close. She has a personality that I donât know about her as a person, but what she created is likely to remain in the history of the alchemy world.
âHow could Ursch-kunâs mother create such an amazing thing while she was in school?â
âIt seems that it was created with reference to the âTransfer Gateâ a âSuper Ancient Large Magic Toolâ in the Garo Empire. Even though the distance that can be transferred is much shorter than the real thing, she was able to reproduce it well while she was in school.â
âAh, she referred to the âTransfer Gateâ of the Garo Empire, which they say no one is sure how long it has existed. Are you sure itâs one of the few remaining âSuper Ancient Large Magic Toolsâ that are still in operation?â
In the past, Geese bought items that pointed to the whereabouts of âSuper Ancient Magic Toolsâ and we went out in the mood of a treasure hunt, but the large magic tool seems to be about the same era as the âTransfer Gateâ.
Incidentally, the âTransfer Gateâ in the Garo Empire is under the control of two countries, the Garo Empire and the Allied Ouka Islands. Thatâs because one of the transfer gates exists across the sea in the east, in the Allied Ouka Islands. The two countries are using this transfer gate to deepen diplomatic relations. There is also a port town on the northeast side of the Kingdom of Roserial, and if you cross the sea, you can go to the Allied Ouka Islands, but there are a lot of sea beasts, so you canât go back and forth by boat. However, we donât know when the transfer gate, which has existed for a long time, will stop working, so it seems that they are worried about whether there are other means of diplomatic relations. Meanwhile, it seems like the Allied Ouka Islands and the Kingdom of Roserial have high expectations for the information that the airship of the Kingdom of Metalia was completed.
If the airship communicates with the Allied Ouka Islands, the airshipâs airfield will surely be built in the Kingdom of Roserial. The Kingdom of Diana is cold and has blizzards in winter, so itâs a little difficult to build an airfield.
By the way, as you can see from the name of the country, the weapon I have [Ouka Fugetsu] is an item at the time of an international student event from the Allied Ouka Islands.
The day before yesterday, Ursch-kun dismantled it and removed the tsuba and handle of [Ouka Fugetsu], and âSeller Urushiâ was engraved in the letters of the Allied Ouka Islands in the central part of the middle. I laughed a little.
When I looked it up, there werenât any strange materials, and I was able to confirm the safety, so Iâm going to give it to Brian who went to the knightâs school. Good things are good things. Itâs just that Ursch-kun will be jealous, so I canât use it. Iâm thinking of looking into other things that donât seem to be a problem and giving them to someone else.
While throwing away such things in the [Closet], Ursch-kun was very serious.
He noticed the existence of [Closet], and when he was checking the contents, he pulled out a [shield with Medusaâs head]. Dismantled it, took out only the âMedusaâs headâ and used it as a material. . .
He created an [Anti-Soul Necklace].
According to Ursch-kun,
âEven though itâs only the head and synthesized into a shield, if it still has the ability of petrifying evil eyes, it means itâs alive, right? That means it has more than five strong souls and vitality of the human soul, doesnât it? No matter how much you say that itâs a monster to be defeated, itâs cruel to keep it sewn to the shield for the rest of itâs life, so I tried to make effective use of it. Also, even if you donât take out the soul using troublesome things like [Coffin of Sloth], you could do it by using it as a normal material.â
It seems to be as he said. By the way, he was able to make two [Anti-Soul Necklaces] with one Medusaâs head. There are a total of 16. No, if you didnât have to use peopleâs souls, you should have created [Anti-Soul Necklace] without creating a shield with Medusa. . .
Didnât you think of it? This is the recipe. If you think about it, you may not be able to think of using other materials.
Of course Ursch would find a way to still make powerful items with out using the disturbing recipe. He still wants to make these things, but he doesnât want Isabella to be mad at him. He found a loophole. The strange mystery guy from a few chapters ago was right. Ursch is cleaning out Isabellaâs [Closet]. I just realized, but he seems to think that Isabella and Ursch are the key to making sure that this world doesnât collapse. Interesting.
I hope you enjoyed this chapter and thank you for reading!
