MTL - After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King-Chapter 34 Teaching and Alchemical Essence

  Chapter 34 Teaching and Alchemical Essence

"Ding!"

   "Hmm~"

  The scarlet sickle in Satan Ye's hand was knocked away by the stinger sword in Ira's hand... The long-handled weapon held in both hands was knocked away by the seemingly light rapier. This is an unimaginable picture.

This is the power of [Fourth Wing Pillar Giant Bee Wingspan]. At this moment, the transparent wings protruding from the spine near the waist of Ira prove that the source of Mana is Ila's previous battle. Killed a giant bee.

"I lost."

  Satan Ye said so, she stretched out her hand to recall the scarlet demon sickle, silently thinking about her own shortcomings in the battle before, she summed it up for the time being... Sure enough, she is still not familiar with the usage of the sickle.

   "If you find it difficult to use, then you don't need to use it, and you don't need to move closer to your father in everything."

Ira said so, he shook his head helplessly, and said: "Actually, your father's sickle seems to have no skill, and I still think that he only uses the sickle because it is not a low-level [magic staff] .”

Recalling the fight with the scarlet dragon demon king on the battlefield, Ira seemed to realize something, and said: "He uses a sickle, and the most common way is to smash or release a light cannon...that is, a beam of mana gathered to attack .”

   "..."

   "Well, is that so?"

  Satan Ye, who seemed not very familiar with her father's fighting style, said so. She looked at the scythe in her hand hesitantly, and poured mana into the scythe without a teacher.

Mana is filled in the sickle... Although the quality and control ability of Mana, Satan Ye is not qualified, but because of the strength of the scarlet dragon race, after these days of training and witnessing the fight that day, the number of her Mana It has grown by leaps and bounds.

   At least it can withstand the use of both Satan Ye himself and Ira.

  So, this is also her confidence to instill Mana in the sickle at this moment.

   "..."

  Continuous infusion, following the guidance of the scythe... Wait!

Realizing that something was wrong, Satan Ye's eyes widened, and Ira's reminder was long overdue, and his voice came from the opposite side: "It's great, but it's best to stop injecting mana, and then quickly type out …you don’t have enough control over…”

   As soon as Ira spoke halfway, Satan Ye felt that the sickle in her hand was a little out of control. She simply cut off the connection between her mana and the sickle, and shouted: "Mr. Ira! Get out of here!"

   As soon as the words fell, the scarlet demon sickle inherited from her father in her hand released a crescent-like slash in an instant, and flew towards Ira under Xilena's shocked eyes.

   "Ah, so..."

Looking at the crescent-shaped mana scythe coming at a high speed, Ira said so, and he had no choice but to strengthen the needle in his hand with the mana he cheated directly from the world tree, and continued: "Be careful of your own limits... "

While saying this, the bright red mana crescent flying with a huge wind pressure collided with the thin needle that Yila swung violently, making a crisp and sharp sound: " Ding!!"

"bump!!"

  Accompanied by a slight explosion sound, the scarlet Mana was instantly disintegrated by Ira's sword, scattered in the air in an instant, and turned into dense red dust.

Under Satan Ye's guilty gaze, Yila gently shook the bee stinger in her hand, bathed in the scarlet mana, and said, "I don't need this expression, in fact, I have expected it to be like this Things have happened, and you still have a lot to learn.”

   "Um... yes, Mr. Ira!"

  —————

Vera, who was fiddling with the giant bee's corpse, seemed to feel the slight explosion sound. She was immersed in the research and raised her head slightly, realizing that it was the teacher-student session between Satan Ye and Ila, and she quickly ignored the explosion sound .

   "Sure enough, the reason why a monster is a monster is not only the mind, but also the soul?"

  Vera talked to herself like this, but she still couldn't figure it out, is the wisdom of the mind determining the quality of the soul, or is the destined soul determining the upper limit of the mind?

   "Giant bees, whether they are worker bees, soldier bees, or queen bees, their souls cannot be used to refine the Philosopher's Stone."

  Vera propped her chin with her hands, because she was a little tired, so she put the burden on her chest on the table. She tapped the table lightly with her other hand, thinking about something.

  What was placed on the table was a muddy stone, and what Vera wanted was a colorful stone-like thing, even if this amount of soul could only be refined into a little residue.

   "Oh, I still don't quite get it."

Vera said helplessly, she played with the muddy stone casually, and decided to give this magic stone to the leader of the construct in the Demon King's collar. She said with emotion: "Alchemy is really difficult. I understand, it would be nice if Guleira was here."

   Talking to herself, the [Guleira] Vera mentioned is the imperial court alchemist. It is worth mentioning that... all the alchemists in the empire are crazy admirers of Ira.

  Because they will always pursue the manuscripts drawn by Ira when she is bored beyond ordinary people’s imagination, and there are also some fanatics who will shout [Hey hey hey! My Lord Ira! Small and fragrant! Hey hey hey! ] and the like.

  That kind of fanaticism will make people wonder what kind of image Ira is in their eyes... Their behavior has become the material for many bards who make a living in taverns to describe the fanatics of the Theocracy.

Because the whole line of alchemy is considered to be a member of the [Ira Sect], and now after Ila defected, I don’t know if it will be suppressed by the empire... From what I know about Isabella, Vera I think at least she won't be suppressed.

  But it’s hard to say about the other nobles... After all, those guys are nobles!

   "I remember, Gu Leila seemed to hate Ira..."

  Vera, who seemed to have thought of something, looked at the false Philosopher's Stone (waste) in her hand... It seemed that some theory by Ira made Gu Leila an enthusiastic fan all of a sudden.

  What theory is it?

  Vera frowned and thought about it. She should have an impression. If it doesn't work, she can also ask Ila... although Ila may not remember what happened ten years ago.

   "Hmm... that's right!"

Seems…

  …

【Ok? Is there a difference between alchemy and magic? Well, the mana consumed in magic is used to create magic. The properties that are as hot as fire and as cold as ice appear out of thin air. 】

  【But the mana consumed in alchemy is just a medium, because...】

   "Because [the essence of alchemy is not to create something out of nothing, but to exchange at equal value]?"

  Vera thought about what Ira had said, she seemed to understand something, and she threw herself into a new round of experiments with bright eyes.
