123 – graduation – 2

One of the key ingredients for making the panacea, the seed of the spirit, I had it, so it was fine.

I passed it to the cherub and he flashed the snake’s eyes and flicked his tongue.

“Ohhhh… the seed of the spirit… heh heh heh heh heh heh heh…”

“Let’s not become spirit traps. We.”

Spirit Seeds can be used to summon spirits.

And you can build friendships by communicating with the spirits.

From my point of view, spirits are just a nuisance, but in this world overflowing with sexual desires, spirits definitely existed.

Since there is no guarantee that it is not a cherub, I thought I should point it out.

“How can a person and a spirit…? I like a lizardman with a pretty tail and beautiful scales. And at least a rattlesnake.”

“…don’t get bitten and die.”

“Anyway… until when do I have to make it?”

“The sooner the better.”

“Then, come and get it in two weeks.”

“No. Let’s just go to the kingdom. We can lend you a lab.”

Arcane is a place where my influence is not very high.

Of course, I am respected by the alchemists, but I can’t say that this city is not dangerous because there are stars crawling into this city.

In particular, the panacea made by the Cherubim is made of the Philosopher’s Stone.

Since there is no one who doesn’t know how precious it is to alchemists, it would be better to make it in the kingdom’s capital so that it can work stably.

“where?”

“There’s a laboratory in the palace. Let’s borrow it.”

“Ohhh! Then there’s no need to decline!”

I went to his lab with him, got the things I needed, and moved to the adventurer’s guild.

There was a request from the guild to escort to the capital of the kingdom, and after accepting the request, we headed straight to the capital.

It takes about a week by carriage from Alcane to the capital of the kingdom.

In the game, it was pretty boring and upsetting to do a week-long move that ended in just a few seconds of loading.

Bandits and thieves did not appear there, which made them even more angry.

“No, how could this be?”

“Things like that happen, too.”

“Tsk.”

Before you know it, the gates of the capital are visible in front of you. Since the request ended here, I received a confirmation from the person in charge of the guild and headed straight to the adventurer’s guild.

“Now. Then where should we go?”

“I have to go to the palace. By the way…”

After meditating for three days, did Lucille pass the rest of the test? Before going to the palace, I stopped by the wizard guild.

Since I had to buy the ingredients anyway, the cherub followed me, and when I entered the guild, he headed towards the merchandise counter.

“What about Lucille?”

“You succeeded in clearing your mind through meditation for three days and successfully passed the next exam.”

Retrieving the diamond golem’s core, and meditating.

The third test is to endure without losing consciousness even after exhausting one’s mana to the limit.

In the game, you just have to use magic until your mana drops to 0, but this is a little different from that.

But there was nothing really wrong with it.

I wish I had passed anyway.

“Then there is only one final test left.”

“Yes. That’s right. What.”

“Is the reaction not cool?”

“Actually, I was able to do it yesterday, but the princess asked me to postpone it for a while. It seems that the wise man is waiting for you to come.”

“What are you waiting for…”

“It seems that the princess relies on the wise man a lot, right? Depending on whether there is a pillar to lean on or not, a person’s strength changes, right?”

“Ah. I admit that. And lady there. Calculate this. The wise man will pay.”

The cherub, who had picked up everything he needed before he knew it, put the basket on top.

The materials purchased are a little more than expected.

I looked at him smirking at me and said a word.

“Don’t make and buy weird things.”

“Ah~ Am I ann? I don’t buy something like that~ I’m trying to make a few more nutritional supplements. Nutrient supplements.”

Still, the things he makes are of good quality, so I should hand them over to the royal family or use them when fighting Kronos.

After paying the price and packing our things, we headed straight to the royal castle.

The cherubim opened their mouths as if they were slightly overwhelmed by the appearance of the huge royal castle.

“I heard that the kingdom is the largest among the continents, and the royal palace in the capital is the most splendid… I wonder if I can enter this…”

It seems that only then did the Cherubim come to mind the outfit.

The clothes he was wearing were old enough to be thought of as being just matting.

I smiled at him as he touched the faded parts with holes here and there, or sauce or medicine smeared on them.

“Unlikely, I care about the strangest things.”

“No, but hey. I can’t. I need some clothes…”

It was then. The castle gate suddenly opened and a group of knights and a girl began to emerge.

“Master!!”

A bright smile appeared on Lucille’s face. I must have cried because my eyes were moist.

“Have you been?!”

“Hmm. Yes. But why didn’t you take the last exam?”

“uh…”

Lucille looked a little nervous. I have no intention of getting upset.

Looking at me, she let out a small sigh and spoke cautiously.

“I want to be the first to congratulate Master…”

“Okay? Then let’s do it right away.”

“Yes!! By the way… Who is this person?”

“Ah. Say hello.”

I pulled the awkward cherub.

“The absolute alchemist Cherubim Oswald. I plan to stay in the annex for a while and use the lab.

I asked Lucille, but I was aiming for the Lily Knight next to me.

For the Lily Knights, who are in charge of escorting the royal palace, the entry and residence of outsiders is quite an annoyance.

Is it because I brought it? She nodded her head without a hint of displeasure.

“Of course. Since you came with the introduction of the wise man… Instead, please wear this around your neck at all times.”

What she held out was a guest card.

I don’t think it’s necessary because he won’t go anywhere if you give him the lab in the annex anyway, but you can’t ignore the rules and procedures.

“Now. It’s not like this here, so let’s go inside.”

“Oh. That’s good. But the wise man. Does the royal palace look like the wise man’s house?”

Lucille’s eyes twinkled at the words of the cherub with a smile.

Upon arriving at the annex, the Cherubim cheered when they saw the laboratory.

Is it because it is a much better laboratory than his own laboratory in Arkane?

He was delighted to look around and started working right away.

“Then let’s go to the test.”

“Yes!”

Upon entering the wizard guild, Turtleman was waiting for him.

In his hand is the core of a diamond golem.

However, it was not in the same condition as it had been brought before.

As if the preparations had already been completed, a subtle flame flickered inside the core.

“If you unlock this and accept it, it’s over. Princess.”

“then…”

“If you come this far, most of you will learn the ultimate skill. There is no need to worry too much, so don’t worry.”

“Okay… ah.”

Lucille tilted her head as she tried to receive the core.

“Most of them? Are you saying that some have failed?”

Turtleman looked at me.

okay. It’s me.

I couldn’t master the real ultimate, but when I was testing it, I was blocked here.

“Ah… What Master couldn’t do…”

“Are you thinking of Cheongchuleoram?

“But I don’t think I can beat Master.”

Turtleman was moved to tears by Lucille’s words.

“Ttaheuk…! I wish our unscrupulous disciples resemble the princess’ toes…!”

Choose your students carefully. Pick some weird guys…

Whether Turtleman was depressed or not, Lucille focused on the core in her hand.

Lucille gently raised her head.

“Master, please look at me.”

“okay.”

“…me.”

Lucille, who was silent for a moment, laughed briskly.

“Please watch over the one and only disciple whom Master loves and is proud of.”

At that, Turtleman looked at me and grumbled.

“Ah. It’s like a dirty probability. I used to… Ugh. I’ll have to die when I’m old.”

“Isn’t it like that? And you’re not going to die.”

Lucille smiled brightly at the conversation between me and Turtleman. Then, slowly erasing the laughter, he gives mana to the core.

Read at noblemtl. com

Just like Cecil did in the ruins, it was a process of opening the core and accepting the essence contained within.

If you fail this, you will not be able to learn the ultimate skill.

I failed, but Lucille will succeed.

– Quick.

In an instant, the nucleus begins to crack. Tiny cracks grow darker, cracks spread all over the core like lightning strikes.

The flame inside the nucleus, which seems to break at any moment, starts to grow bigger and brighter, and the light gets stronger.

-Chang-Geurang!!

And after a while, the core cracked and the flame inside began to be absorbed into Lucille’s body.

It was pretty cool, but the scene I saw in the game appears in reality is a scene I’ve seen a lot in this world.

That’s why I wasn’t very impressed, but Turtleman must have been different.

“It’s so beautiful to see someone step up.”

“is it?”

“It’s a good time. It’s good to be able to grow like that…”

“Right.”

“Are you jealous?”

“Not at all.”

“Let’s study it one more time later. I really can’t learn the ultimate skill.”

While talking with Turtleman, the flame was completely sucked into Lucille’s body.

Slowly opening her eyes, she tilted her head and began examining her hands and body.

“Something… doesn’t seem to have changed.”

“The wizard’s ultimate skill. The ‘extreme of sorcery’ is to maximize the efficiency of magical power.”

“uh…”

“Let’s try it. Let’s rent a training room!”

After Turtleman gave permission, an employee came out and escorted Lucille to the training room.

A large space beneath the guild.

Entering this place that is indestructible even with all kinds of magic, Lucille grabbed the staff tightly.

“Try using the finest magic you can use.”

“Uh… yes.”

Lucille’s eyes widened as she quickly memorized the spell.

It must have been because the dramatic effect of magic was exerted.

Faster casting speed than before.

and low mana consumption.

There is a higher level of perfection.

Lucille couldn’t keep her mouth shut after blowing away the small sparks and embers on her staff.

“Oh my gosh…”

“This is the difference between a wizard who has mastered the ultimate skill and a wizard who hasn’t mastered it. Likewise, the difference between an archmage and an ordinary wizard is significant, so aim for the archmage.”

“Yes, yes…”

– Hwaaagh!!

The moment the residual fire hit the target, a huge flame burst out. Looking at it and at her wand, Lucille began to use other high-end magic as well.

When she used up all her magic power after so much magic, she looked exhausted but very happy.

Compared to the time when I was exhausted with just a couple of top-notch magics before mastering the ultimate skill, I’ve improved tremendously. Even though I used magic at more than twice the level, there was still a little bit of magic left.

“Thank you. Thank you… Master…”

“What.”

I nodded to Lucille in gratitude and took out the prepared items from my bag.

It was a beautiful short auxiliary staff, red as blood.

Even if you look at it, the wand, which is not an ordinary item, looks pretty good with Lucille because of the color.

The red jewel at the end of the wand is so transparent and deep that it seems like you will be fascinated just by looking at it.

“This… what is it? It’s a very nice-looking staff…”

saw it right

The wand Lucille is using now is also a good wand, but it won’t be as good as this one.

Since she is also a wizard, her eyes sparkled when she saw a good staff.

“Cosmo’s Staff Replica.”

This is the reward for the achievement ‘Sincere Worshiper’ that can be obtained by worshiping Cosmo and offering 10,000 monsters as sacrifices.

It’s been a while since I got it, but I couldn’t even use it, so I just kept it. Let’s dispose of it today.

“A wizard who has mastered the ‘extreme of sorcery’ can be subordinated to magical powers and stored in subspace.”

“Uh… Gee, that’s amazing! What a sub-space!!”

“That’s not what’s really great.”

When all mana is consumed, by devoting 1/3 of the remaining physical strength to open the door to the multi-space and absorb the mana there.

The best magic recovery skill in the game that restores all magic and mental power of the wearer with it.

‘Support of multiple worlds’ was the greatest strength of the staff.

“…Oh… precious thing…”

“It’s a graduation gift.”

Lucille’s body trembled with joy and stiffened.

Lucille’s eyes tremble and barely turn to me.

It was easy to see that the emotion in her eyes was not greed for the staff.

That emotion is fear.

Lucille was afraid of the word ‘graduation’.

“Congratulations.”

Lucille lowered her head and refused to accept the wand, so I took her hand and forcibly squeezed the wand.

Well.

It fits well too.
