The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 568
Chapter 568:
Alchemy and Dark Magic.
Undead and Alchemy.
I don’t know what the connection was, and Harriet couldn’t figure it out.
Initially, it was decided to call Sarkegar, the allied garrison, a temple, and Harriet decided to deduce any meaningful connection between the clues through a meeting with the Senate.
Antirianus, the family head of Toyo.
And Lluen, the family head of Friday.
Both vampire blood relatives are a group that has been studying alchemy for a very long time.
So, through the Lord Vampires, you can infer what the Empire is trying to do to some extent.
It is unknown whether it will be first for Sarkegar to break through the lab or to come up with highly probable inferences from the senate meeting.
In conclusion, we need to know what possibilities the empire is exploring.
It’s a good thing if it helps the war, but it’s also important to judge whether it will pose a threat to us in the future.
and.
“Yes… … .”
I was back in Ellen’s room after a long night.
He turned into a cat and was captured by Harriet, but arrived at the ecliptic as a cat because he would have to return to his human form anyway to turn into a cat again.
time is morning.
Even in winter, the warm morning sun fell on Ellen’s face.
Ellen stretches as if she is struggling with her eyes wide open while lying down.
It was almost a stretch, almost like a struggle, as if trying to wake up a dead body.
Ellen starts to tremble as she straightens herself from head to toe.
-No,
no, it’s not like it’s breaking somewhere while stretching, isn’t this?
Is your child convulsing?
“Yes… … . ugh… … .”
After stretching and twisting her body for a while, Ellen looks around while lying down with her eyes open.
are you looking for me
-Aeong
“… … .”
Ellen picked me up from sitting on the bedside without even blinking and put me on her chest and hugged me as it was.
that… … .
now honestly.
used to… … .
This feeling is no longer embarrassing… … .
sorry… … .
“good night… … .”
-Aye!
no.
Yumma!
Wasn’t that what happened?
Ellen closed her eyes and slept for two more hours.
* * *
Ellen was as limp as a jellyfish.
It’s nice to see the tension completely released.
how to say
People have become like porridge (?).
Ellen opened her eyes in a disheveled manner and sat me down, unwashed, hugging a pillow and staring at me.
It’s a complete mess, but he’s a human again… … . Because it is.
Because the kid who was always like a knife is messed up… … . just cute… … .
without saying anything
Suddenly, after fiddling with my hair or waist, for a while again.
After patting my nose, for a long time.
Suddenly, he opened his mouth wide and buried his face in my neck for a while.
It felt like a NEET who spends all day just staring at a cat all day long.
Aren’t you hungry?
–
It keeps making that kind of noise.
Ellen was just staring blankly at me, as if eating wasn’t bothersome.
Isn’t this broken?
isn’t it broken?
Is this something that the cat has to leave soon for a sweeping result? Doesn’t Ellen become the kind of guy who is bothered by everything in the world because of the cat?
In the end, it became a bizarre situation where each other was looking at each other like this.
Seeing him pick up a cat and roll on the bed by himself.
It was nice to see her in the end because Ellen still seemed to have a normal appearance.
It’s not that he’s completely changed, but he can still be like a child.
After all, you can’t stay like that all day, can you?
-Guruk
My stomach grunts for a while, but I just keep rolling around.
“hungry… … .”
Stop muttering and go eat!
In the end, it was so pitiful to roll around halfway between the annoyance and the thought that I had to wake up, so I hit Ellen’s cheek with my fist a few times.
– Pakpak!
“???”
-Cow!
Ellen, who has been beaten a few times, opens her eyes wide and stares at me.
Ellen pushed out her cheek as if asking for more.
The cat punch was counterproductive.
Wanna be scolded?
– Haaaaagh!
“… … okay.”
Eventually, as if she understood something, Ellen staggered up and headed for the shower.
* * *
Ellen got up, washed up, changed into her normal clothes, and went out into the hallway.
It was already close to lunchtime, having been idle around so much. Ellen walked down the aisle, watching to see if I was following.
It looks like he will take care of me while eating his own lunch.
The class A dormitory was different from yesterday.
“… … Heinrich?”
“Uh Ellen.”
For some reason, there was Heinrich, who seemed to have just arrived.
“I also decided to rest here during the winter.”
“I see.”
Heinrich looked at me and nodded as if he knew what the situation was. I’m sure some of them will keep coming back this winter.
At this rate, after a while, everyone might end up returning to the temple.
Ellen pointed her finger toward the hallway, not the dorm cafeteria.
“You can eat at the banquet hall. The dorm cafeteria is all closed.”
“ah… … . okay? I think so.”
At Ellen’s explanation, Heinrich followed Ellen as if he should have a meal then.
How is the situation at the Kernstadt Army Garrison?
After learning that Louise von Schwarz couldn’t kill Heinrich, she had relatively little to worry about.
Judging by the fact that Heinrich’s expression wasn’t overshadowed, it didn’t seem like there was anything too noteworthy.
I don’t know, but Louise von Schwarz seems to be very blunt.
Surprisingly, it doesn’t seem to creak.
To be honest, I don’t need or have any reason to care about Heinrich’s problem any more.
“Are you the only one in our dorm?”
Since Heinrich belongs to the Kernstadt Army, he must not be familiar with the Royal Class situation. Of course you know everything you need to know.
“huh.”
“What about Class B?”
“Ludwig Dettomorian Christina Anna Louie. It will be five like this. I don’t know who else could have come. I don’t know.”
“There are quite a few there.”
“huh.”
Ludwig could not help it, but Heinrich seemed quite surprised that there were five returning members of Class B.
“by the way… … . Did you really like it?”
These were the words Heinrich said while looking at Ellen and me alternately.
“You are cute.”
Ellen walked quietly and spat out as if tossing it.
* * *
There were no three researchers in the lunchtime banquet hall. Maybe after breakfast, I headed to the university research building.
Of course, Ludwig, who was on duty as a guard, was not there, and Dettomorian did not show up, as if he had gone to do his job.
“hmm?”
Heinrich tilted his head as he heard that there were five people in Class B in the dormitory, but there were no classmates except seniors and juniors.
“Where did everyone go?”
Heinrich, who sat across from Ellen as he brought the meal, asked.
“Ludwig is working in the guard. The three of them seem to be doing some kind of magic research. Dettomorian is… … . He also has other things to do.”
Aside from the other four, did Ellen even know what the Dettomorians were doing? Heinrich narrowed his eyes after hearing Ellen’s words.
“watch? With that body?”
“huh.”
“… … Are you okay?”
Heinrich murmured softly whether he was worried about working in the guards with his body, no matter how much he rose to the ranks of superhumans.
He seemed to think he was a terrible guy.
“It’s probably something that would put her in danger… … . I don’t think there will be.”
Although his combat power is low, as long as he can strengthen his magic power and is as skilled as Ludwig, he won’t be easily defeated no matter what.
In fact, whatever the level of the guards, Ludwig would be able to do what a platoon level could do, rather than just a squad of guards, with his left arm.
Even if it rots, the word Junchi is not for nothing.
Ludwig will already be treated as an elite among elites from the moment he is assigned.
Heinrich ate and I ate the scrambled eggs Ellen had given me.
Accepting and eating has become so natural now that it’s dangerous to start thinking about it.
Anyway, Ellen came back and Heinrich came back too.
If you come back one by one, including Erhina Kaier, the old temple atmosphere will come out. Well, it’s just a limited break.
“Hmm… … .”
Heinrich was thinking about what he was thinking by himself, even while eating, he was in trouble.
“what’s the matter?”
At Ellen’s question, Heinrich tilted his head.
“no… … . I wonder if it’s right for me to just play here.”
“… … ?”
“Ludwig is also working in the guard with his body, so I wonder if I’m not playing around… … .”
no.
If you come here to rest, you will rest. Why are you trying to imitate the kid who doesn’t take a break?
When you need to rest, just rest!
If you’re not going to rest, why did you come back here in the first place?
however.
“I was about to move slowly.”
As if Ellen had been thinking about it too, she chimed in.
I wondered why it was stretched out like this today.
Ellen, did you also plan to do something after driving?
Apparently, in Ellen’s mind, today was the last day off.
Somehow, I was rolling around to the point of being terrifying.
Ellen takes a bite of the sausage and says.
“I was going to take a look around the outskirts tomorrow. Then you take half of it.”
“Oh yeah. Then let’s do it.”
The guy who wants to work as soon as he gets back.
And the kid who makes that guy work right away.
-Cow!
“Do you want to go too?”
-Aye!
As an animal that eats and plays, I was the most crazy.
* * *
The capital of Edina, the capital of Razak.
Senate meeting room.
“Black magic and alchemy. It is also virtually inseparable.”
As soon as he shared the clue given to him by Reinhardt, Toyo’s head, Antirianus, smiled grimly.
There are six in total here.
They were the Lord Vampire Five and the scribe Harriet de Saintoine.
No more was needed. Magic is on the subject of this meeting. Because that’s high magic.
At the words of Antirianus, Harriet groaned and twisted her mouth.
“Isn’t it inseparable?”
“Doesn’t the scribe know well that in order to reach the limit of any kind of magic, the fields must be mixed?”
“I know that, but… … .”
“Even with the magic of summoning meteors, it is impossible to implement without a simultaneous understanding of numerous magic systems. Alchemy and black magic are just such a relationship.”
When any kind of magic reaches its limit, not only the two fields are mixed, but also several fields are mixed.
If that’s the case, it might be said that all magic systems are inseparable from each other.
“But we need to know what the Empire is trying to do, not theories or concepts. First of all, we know that the Empire is stealing the bodies of heroes and fallen people from the past. Just like how we revived the ashes of saints into death knights and turned them into power. Something like that.”
At those words, Elerith quietly opened her mouth.
“Creating a high level undead similar to Death Knight does not require the power of alchemy, just a warlock is enough, scribe. But the fact that alchemy was used… … . I can’t call it simple, but it means that something different from simple undead is happening.”
At those words, Galarsh crossed his arms and murmured.
“But just because an alchemist is helping, it is unreasonable to be certain that alchemy is necessarily related to the work. There is a good chance that they are doing completely different research.”
In the end, only one Christina was confirmed that the alchemist was involved.
“And that child who is called an alchemist is not necessarily able to handle only alchemy.”
Although Anna helped in the creation of moonshine, moonshine is not a product of black magic.
As such, it is certainly possible that Cristina is helping with the research, having knowledge of black magic rather than alchemy.
Is it really a collaboration of those two magic systems?
Is it a completely different study?
Or is it just black magic?
“We have to think of the worst case.”
It was Lluen who added it.
“Alchemy and black magic have collided, and the ashes are being used there. then. What can I do… … . Shouldn’t we think about that?”
“Yes.”
Whether or not that actually happens, we have to assume the worst.
Predicting whether or not it would become a threat to Edina was what we had to do here.
There is no point in looking at the situation with optimism.
“The head of Thursday and Saturday is well versed in alchemy. Anything come to mind?”
“Alchemy of Thursday is mostly alchemy related to vegetation. Rather pure. Black magic or alchemy close to sobriety is not our field… … . To be honest, I have no idea.”
At Harriet’s question, Lluen shook his head.
Thursday.
Their alchemy, as they say, is a very pure field of alchemy.
It is no exaggeration to say that alchemy knowledge related to vegetation occupies a large part of Razak’s food situation.
There is rather no knowledge related to the undead that is close to prohibition. Alchemy is a very extensive field of study among magic systems.
Lluen didn’t seem to have any sense of it, and Heriot stared at Antirianus with a puzzled expression.
“Toyo’s head… … .”
“This is the look you’re looking forward to.”
“… … It may be rude, but I think it’s strange that the head of the family doesn’t know about this field.”
– Nod
At Harriet’s words, everyone nodded in unison.
Alchemy related to black magic.
It doesn’t make sense if that perverted idiot vampire who can’t get enough of evil, vicious, and cruel things doesn’t know this.
