20. The girl and the demon (2)

Diring!ㅡ

[My Room]

● Cryptids have appeared in Shaiza’s secret greenhouse.

[Cryptid]

●Porginei is a fearsome man-eating plant that emits a terrible stench. Through the power of magic gardening, the demon flower Porginei has been reborn. But today’s porginei is small and odorless.

[The mastery of Magic Gardening has risen.]

[Skill]

Magic Gardening (LV1) has been enhanced to Magic Gardening (LV2).

● Significantly increases the chance of harvesting jackpots.

●Cryptids of less than LV3 born from magical gardening will absolutely obey you.

●Magic water has begun to erupt from the cellar, Shaiza’s secret greenhouse.

You have succeeded in cultivating cryptids, which are the level up conditions for magic gardening. Cryptid means an unknown creature, and most of the ancient creatures that have already become extinct are classified under the tag of cryptid.

The devil flower Porginei variety that has been successfully cultivated using the devil’s energy. It is known as a plant that was originally known as a cannibal plant. The game explains that it is a monster that is said to be several tens of meters in size, stuns people with its stench, and has a very powerful bite, cutting a person wearing armor in half with just one bite.

However, as the variant is attached to the end of the name, Porginei grown in my greenhouse does not show that much power.

It’s about the size of a sunflower. A cat ear-shaped leaf blooms above the wide snout. A stem grows at the root, and when I approach it, I shake it from side to side, and when I stroke the top of Porginei’s snout, the leaves fold and unfold on top of Porginei’s head.

Honestly, it’s cute.

“Right right, nice right? Shall we eat?”

When I said that while stroking Porginei, the roots that seemed to act as tails stood in a straight line and stopped. I mixed the seeds I had at random and sown them in the flower bed where Porginei was planted.

This is the way to obtain the seeds of Magic Gardening LV2 Tier. Now that porginei will eat the seeds I gave you and spit out new ones. The seed may be the LV1 seed you already had or the LV2 seed you will newly acquire.

In some cases, it spits out the seeds of ordinary herbs instead of the seeds of magic gardening. In this way, about 18 kinds of LV2 tier seeds should be extracted and increased. The most urgent thing right now is the plant that is used as the material for the “Horticultural boundary board,” And I would like it to come out in one shot.

“Then now… “

I put down the gardening tools I was holding and headed to the basement where there was a secret passage. I went down the wooden stairs to the greenhouse and opened the first door I could see. Originally, this room was a room with a pit dug and nothing existing. But now I can hear the sound of splashing water, and the pit is filled with magical water.

Originally, it was such a room without a single light, but now, blue fluorescent light leaks from the pit filled with magic water, brightly illuminating the room.

A treasure chest floating on top of that magic tree catches my eye. With a grunt, I retrieved the treasure chest and opened the lid to examine it. Inside was a ring with a green emerald in it.

「Words to the Heir」

●To you precious…

Aka Shiza Hologram Ring. It is a ring with nothing special except that it has an active skill attached to it. I put such a ring on my finger and energized it.

Then it radiates light into the air, and a girl with her eyes closed appears from within the light. She lands on the floor with her feather-light movements, and opens her eyes to look at me.

A girl with light blue hair wearing a dress. This is the appearance of the great sage Shayza. Shaiza smiles at me, then she slowly walks over and stands on tiptoe, stroking my hair. After stroking her hair a few times like that, it became light and disappeared.

This is the power of this ring. Really this is the end. To be honest, I don’t even know why this item exists. I was expecting that there might be a special power hidden in the game, but it wasn’t.

Disappointed, I put the ring in my chest and went up to the greenhouse.

Nishia von Orisha was out cleaning the store early in the morning. She is to prepare for business before Warros arrives. She thought that Woros would encourage her, saying that she had worked hard since the morning. It was when she was humming her tune at such thoughts.

“Are you there?”

At the sound of her voice looking for her person, Nishia put down her cleaning kit and stepped out of her store. Standing outside the door was a first-year female student from Arisha’s class with black hair.

“Hello. I came because I wanted to buy scented candles.”

“Welcome. Sorry. The store hasn’t opened yet.”

“Umm, what is this? I really need it, but how can I not?”

Nishia was troubled. She thought of starting business right away when Warros arrived anyway, so she thought it would be okay to sell at least one before opening.

“I can’t help it. It is 6000 dun.”

“Thank you. Thank you very much. I really needed it. Over there that… First-year Shaiza head Miss Nishia, right?”

“By the way. Do you know me?”

“Sure. You’re famous for being given the title of geek researcher. I’m Arisha’s first year Heylia. Scented candles are so famous that I wondered who made them, but it was Miss Nishia.”

At Heylia’s words, Nishia couldn’t help but smile. She was that, because she wasn’t a geek herself, and she wasn’t the one who made scented candles. But what can I do? The source of the scented candles was requested by Woros to be kept a complete secret, and the school gave him the title of geek researcher.

“Then Miss Nishia, I will go.”

“Yes, please come again next time.”

Nishia looked blankly at Heylia, who bowed and walked away. She just had a brief conversation and I think she’s tired of something. When she’s thinking about that. At the end of her alley, she sees Woros walking.

Seeing Woros, Nishia shakes her hand off her study gown and angles her.

But wouldn’t it be that Woros and Heylia stopped, stared at each other for about 5 seconds, and then walked away? Nishia, did those two know each other? She was just thinking.

*

“How is it?”

—-『Certainly, this scented candle is an item containing Shaiza’s knowledge. Woros Blood. He is, after all, the successor to Shaiza.”

“Really? He didn’t seem like such a great person, but he’s so mean. Blood is Shiza’s successor? Besides, there is no connection between Blood and Shaiza, no matter how you look at it, right?”

—-『That’s what Shaiza is. I always chose to do things that would make others wonder. If Shaiza chose Woros Blood, there must be a reason.”

Heylia inhaled deeply the scent of the scented candle.

“Knowing that, leave Woros alone? Of course I thought I was going to kill you earlier. If I want to kill the Blood side and you want to kill the Shiza side, isn’t it mutually beneficial?”

ㅡ『There is no need to hurry. As long as he is Shaiza’s successor, we can’t condone this. I’m already looking forward to it.”

As her evil spirit begins to giggle, Heylia’s eyebrows narrow.

“So what are you going to do? What can I do without ?”

—-『I looked at the root of the jewel. Like I said, if there wasn’t a risk of the jewel being taken away by them, it wouldn’t have been necessary. It was in danger of being destroyed. I looked into the inner side of the jewel with the mindset of destroying it rather than stealing it, but I got an unexpected harvest.”

Heylia blows out the incense candle and gazes intently at Denas Yeseul, who is sitting against a tree in the distance and petting an owl.

—-『Memories of the Caller』 Were traces of an attempt to duplicate the soul of a man named Zakat with ridiculous technology. Everything from the physical information to the memory has been replayed.”

“What is Zakat?”

ㅡ 『Do you remember my old story? There, he was a spear warrior called Shaiza’s spear. Apparently, Shaiza was trying to resurrect Zakat, her favorite disciple whom I killed. It seems like I gave up halfway because I knew what the result would be.”

“So, what does that have to do with the plan?”

At Heylia’s question, the evil spirit begins to laugh unkindly.

ㅡ 『It was clearly mentioned in my story, right? The more Shaiza suffered, the more evil Zakat’s soul became. His soul was harvested by me. Of course, I killed Zakat, so Shaiza didn’t know about it.”

“Don’t round things up, just get to the point—”

—-『Resurrect Zakat. The data stored in Was already taken by me. Do you know the exact reason why Shaiza created the memory of the caller?』

At the evil spirit’s question, Heylia tilted her head.

—-『It was a trick. Her power, which she had condensed to resurrect Zakat, was wrapped up in another power and hidden from view. Fortunately, I was able to figure out that part. For Zakat, if you use only the stored power, you can do something similar to the .』

“No, in the first place, the jewel was stolen, so what can I use it for?”

—-『If I wasn’t ready, I wouldn’t even say this.』

The evil spirit that had said this far started to laugh, giving Heylia goosebumps.

—-『Resurrect Zakat. It is impossible to completely revive it with current technology, and it is possible to bring it back to life as an undead. At that time, as the condensed power of Shayza is released, a power similar to Leaks out. Using that, you should be able to cause an undead accident as planned.”

Heylia heard the explanation so far, she was afraid and she couldn’t answer easily.

“If it’s Shaiza’s spear, isn’t it an enemy? Isn’t it the ending where we get hit and die by the undead we summoned? I’m sorry to say this, but a person named Zakat stood shoulder to shoulder with Melgard in the past? Aren’t we supposed to be opponents?”

—-『I will infuse the soul of Zakat, who has become evil, so he will thoroughly stir up a riot in the academy. Zakat is Shayza’s apprentice. And the current academy has a successor to Shaiza. Wouldn’t that be fun?”

The evil spirits, even when they had a golden opportunity, discouraged them from attacking Woros. She came to know why.

Use Shaiza’s disciple to murder Shaiza’s successor. Then, he burns down the academy, the legacy left by Shaiza.

What a devilish idea this is.

ㅡ 『A delusionist… That’s a really good title. It is the soul of a person who lives in delusion rather than reality… I think this will be a good source of energy.”

“…… “

ㅡ『Go Heylia. Trouble that woman’s heart, bring out the darkness, and come. So that I can win easily』

“Wait a minute… That person.”

A girl wearing a red cloak, which means she is a student in Arisha’s class, approaches Denas Yeseul, who was sitting leaning against a tree. As she approaches, Denas rises from her seat and is delighted.

“This is a woman named Rin. That hindered us… How will we do it?”

—-『It doesn’t matter what you do as long as you secure Denas Yeseul. Good.”

“No, in broad daylight… “

ㅡ 『I told you to go.』

Heylia sighs, pulls her mask from her bosom, and puts it on. Then her academy uniform changed to a black robe. After confirming that her outfit has changed, she ambles towards the tree where Rin and Denas Yeseul are resting.

“Yes? Researching a new invention?”

“Yes. Even selling scented candles can make quite a bit of money, but I think you can do a wide range of business only when there are many types of items. I plan to prepare a kind of item that cannot be produced in large quantities like scented candles.”

“Ummm, but now that we are in the research phase, there are no new products for a while.”

“No. It will be ready by next week.”

I unknowingly clasped my hands at Woros’ words.

“Oh, by the way, I plan to stay out at the studio today. To be honest, I’m going to get a lot of magic water, so I’m going to make a little simple potion and sell it.”

“Potions are good. Of course, it must also be a potion endowed with mysterious powers, right?”

“No. Since we’re going to use magic water, we’re going to mass produce really simple potions. Since there is a large amount of magic power, the cost of producing potions will not be that expensive, so I plan to print them without any burden.”

There was no shortage of regrets about Woros’ words. Woros always surprises me with his mysterious skills. That he He said he would make an ordinary potion using magic water, but how could it be regrettable? But then what? We needed money And the senior said that he will stay up all night in my workshop today. Maybe that’s an important fact?

Tomorrow is my day off too. All night long with Woros, you’ll be able to immerse yourself in work. That’s an important fact.

“Then I must have prepared a lot! I’ll prepare dinner tonight!”

“You’re not going to catch a live chicken again, are you?”

“No way~ I will prepare a decent meal, so you can come looking forward to it.”

“Really? I get it.”

I forcibly held back the laughter that was about to leak out, and pushed the remaining scented candles into the corner. It’s because I decided to go to work soon. Today, we will work with Mr. Woros all night and talk about each other’s research. It’s fun just thinking about it. Thinking so, I left the store and locked the door.

“Then Nisia, see you at the studio. After the sun goes down… I’ll be there around nine.”

“Yes! Senior, then I will go first.”

Waved his hand at Woros and ran at full speed. It’s because I plan to go ahead and clean the studio.
