Alchemist After Possessing

102. Ancient Ruins (2)

102. Ancient Ruins (2)

The room, which had been shaken a moment ago, became quiet. And soon, the stone wall, the entrance we came in, splits and the road opens. Perhaps it is still strange that the stone wall with nothing opens automatically, Lelisha carefully observes the wall.

“Let’s go. The other side would have noticed that we had come in.”

“Oh, I see. By the way, there was a place like this in the basement of the Melgard Military Academy.”

“We didn’t just come down from the room. I came by moving little by little.”

While saying that, as Lerisha stepped into the dark and damp hallway, the green light from the torch hanging on the wall lit up in succession, illuminating the hallway.

“This is the basement of the Melgard Battlefield.”

“Me, Melgard’s final battle, right? So, this is under the ruins?”

“Yes. It’s a pity you didn’t look upstairs. It was in the basement that I had business.”

“Ji, it’s underground, but it’s amazing. This… how”

Lerisha approached the wall with a very tense face and ran her fingers over the wall.

“It is built in a strange way.”

“Because we used a special construction technique. Tremendous technologies lie dormant along with treasures in the basement of the battleground.”

“How about technology?”

“Like this hallway where we are now, special construction techniques. Farming method. It’s like a recipe for manufacturing various weapons.”

Lerisha couldn’t help but be surprised by the way the corridor was built. It was because all the pottery of the same shape was filling the walls at the end of the wide corridor, matching the stone molds. If you look at it up to this point, it is an ordinary tile construction, but the problem is that there is a technique for building with huge pottery that does not exist in this world.

Actually, this doesn’t come as a big surprise to me. It was a common sight in the world I lived in. In this world, there is no skill to deal with heavy and large tiles, and the method of building with small tiles is used.

In the original work, if you clear the underground quest in the battleground, a large number of items that can decorate the room will be activated.

Silk wallpaper. Tile floor. Interior film. There are technologies that are actually used in reality, such as windows and doors, and it is a known fact that it is a technology that was put in for users who wanted to decorate their rooms like in reality.

As I said, there are such things as tile construction and paper wallpaper in the world, but the technologies that can be obtained in the basement of the battleground are technologies that use magic to construct more modern things. The same goes for the farming techniques mentioned above.

It is called Magic Architecture among users.

If we successfully propagate the construction method using magical power, great changes will come to the world’s architectural history.

Actually, before I graduated, I was thinking of robbing the basement of the battleground, taking all of those skills, and educating builders to make money. With that thought in mind, I walked along the well-polished tiles. After exiting the hallway like that, we arrived at a place that could be called a ruin in earnest.

It was a very large place, and unlike the hallway, it felt like an unpolished cave.

It was so dark that I couldn’t even see an inch ahead. At that moment, I heard a shrieking sound in the darkness, and soon a bright light came on and I could see my surroundings clearly. At the end of the well-paved road there were stairs, and above the stairs was a throne.

On the throne sat a little girl with purple hair, her legs crossed. A woman in a suit stood next to her. The woman in her suit was holding her breath. She now understands why the lights were turned on so late and why she heard a shash in the dark.

I hurriedly prepared to get in shape in front of a guest who hadn’t seen me in a while, and in the process, I was not ready, so I turned on the lights late. The reason why she is breathing like that must have been because she hastily climbed onto her throne and got her form.

With that thought in mind, I slowly approached the throne.

“Stop it. Do you know where this place is and approach it without hesitation?”

“Yes. I am well aware of it.”

“Huh? Then you know who Jim is. Ruler. Who is Jim?”

Her purple-haired girl rises from her throne, closes her eyes and places her hand on her chest. She seems to be in a position to listen to praise. I’m sorry, but I didn’t want to praise that existence, and I didn’t want to look down on it, so I thought I’d go out strong.

“Isn’t it the vampire queen who was confined here after confronting Melgard in the past and boasting that she could win?”

“Yes, this body is the Vampire Queen… What did you just say?”

“I am the Vampire Queen who was defeated by Melgard and was imprisoned here. Am I wrong?”

At my word, the Vampire Queen gritted her teeth and trudged down her steps.

“On the topic of midday mortals. Are you trying to destroy Jim? Yes, that’s good I will show you my greatness myself.”

“I know how great you are. What I came for-“

“Shut up! Few humans can be free from Jim’s wrath! When you go to the afterlife, deeply reflect on your mistakes.”

“Okay. Then, when I go to the underworld, I will tell Shaiza-nim that this happened to me.”

When the name Shaiza came up, the Vampire Queen stopped moving. She narrowed her eyes and opened her mouth.

“You. What did you say now?”

“I said it was Mr. Shaiza. The introduction is late. I am Woros Blood. He is the one who inherited Shaiza-nim’s property.”

“…… “

The Vampire Queen stays put. She thinks for a moment. Then turn her around and climb her stairs. It is to exchange her whispers with her own servants. While doing so, Larisha grabs my collar and shakes it.

“Whoa, Woros. Are you okay?”

“Yes. It’s okay. Even if her words are strong, she doesn’t attack people.”

“That child… Is it true that that being is the Vampire Queen?”

“Yes. Have you seen it in a history textbook?”

Lerisha nods her head at my question. She looks up at the Vampire Queen with a mixed expression of both worry and anticipation. After the conversation with the maid, the vampire queen sits on her throne.

“Yes. Jim’s name is Lucy Purple. She is the almighty vampire queen who guards the basement of the battleground. Did you say Woros Blood there? If you sold Shaiza’s name, there must be a way to prove it, right?”

At her words, I summoned Zakat’s spear. As a vampire who had been hit by Shiza party members in the past, it seems that he immediately realized what this spear was.

“Ugh, um… Well, I believe what you say is true. Be glad. So, why did you come looking for Jim?”

“I have the magic to eat you. You should go with me.”

“How rude! What was he talking about when he bowed his head and asked for something?”

“The return is Arisha’s ancient magic that has been dormant for hundreds of years. Well-aged ones will suit your taste.”

The Vampire Queen with an angry expression. A smile begins to bloom on Lucy Purple’s face.

“Did you say ancient magic? Arisha’s too? Hmm. Well, good Shayza has a debt, so it wouldn’t be a bad thing for her to help her heir.”

“Tell me honestly that you just wanted to eat Arisha’s magic and go for a walk after a long time.”

“That, it can’t be. All right, all right! Jim will not mix a word with you. Who is the girl next to him?”

“Didn’t you say you wouldn’t mix a word?”

Lucy Purple was speechless at my answer. She talks to her own maid and sits back in her haughty posture with her legs crossed. Then her maid opened her mouth.

“Who is the girl next to Woros Blood? Post her self-introduction to the Queen right now.”

“Yes, yes! My name is Larisha von Melloyer. Arisha Academy’s second year—”

“Meloire? Did you just say Meloyer?”

“Yes!”

Lucy Purple jumped up from her seat. With a look of disbelief on her face, she comes down the stairs and stands in front of us.

“Is what this girl said true?”

“Didn’t you say you don’t mix things up?”

“Kuh. Well, good Jim has to check it himself.”

“Wow!”

Lucy Purple suddenly embraced Lerisha. She presses her face against Lerisha’s chest and starts sniffing.

“Puha. This is the scent I will remember. This warm scent. Certainly you are Meloyer. Sniff sniff.”

“That, stop! Whoa, Woros, save me!”

“I will not miss it. Grancha. Grancha von Meloyer’s body odor has been inherited. You are a blessed body.”

“That Grancha… Do you know our ancestors?”

“Everybody knows! Sniff sniff.”

I grabbed the hem of Lucy Purple’s clothes and forcibly took it off. Then, Lucy is struggling, waving her arms and legs as if not to take her away.

“Enough with that.”

“Huh. Hate! Shaiza’s successor and the like can’t stop my load. Let go! Jim will live here with that child.”

“If you keep coming out like that, it will be troublesome. You know, right?”

“…… “

Lucy Purple stopped moving. Let me put her down on her floor. It is to send her eyes filled with her resentment.

“Just a little more… Wouldn’t it be nice to be hugged?”

“No.”

“Well then, leave that child behind when you go. I will raise you well.”

“No. As it was I who brought Lerisha, I must be responsible for her safety. Don’t even talk about it again.”

When I say that, Lucy Purple puffs out her cheeks. Now she is relieved that she can barely talk about serious things. While I was thinking that, Lerisha tapped my shoulder.

“Responsibilities… Did you say you were in charge of me now?”

Lerisha speaks shyly while twisting her body. Let me narrow my eyes to retort.

“In that case, please introduce me to another Meloyer. No, would it be necessary? I would love to make it here. Make it and have it checked by Jim. I smell the burden… No, I’ll make sure you’re healthy.”

“Don’t make it, even Lucy-sama… You joke too much.”

“I’m not kidding. Good night. I’m glad Jim will prepare a room for you—”

“Enough with that.”

Let me speak with a low, cold voice. The mouths of the two women who were chattering as they met eyes were blocked.

“I came here for work, not to hear these pointless jokes.”

At my words, Lucy Purple bows her head.

“And the princess too. Stop kidding. You know that 1:00 is an urgent matter, right?”

This time Lerry Shah bowed her head. It’s good to be close like now, but I hope it’s like this after talking about work first.
