13 – Alchemy Genius

Shuaaa

Even in the pouring rain, he was a boy who felt somehow noble.

Forgetting that he had to empty the trash can in a hurry, Dirakit watched the boy surrounded by stray cats. He opened his mouth

“Please.”

“Nyaaang!”

A cat meowed loudly and bit the back of the boy’s hand. The fangs of animals are very sharp. Naturally, the back of the boy’s hand had a big wound.

Crimson blood dripped to the ground, creating crimson ripples in the puddle.

For what reason did you hurt yourself?

An answer to the question was quickly given. The boy took a potion from his chest.

A blue liquid in a glass bottle. The moment he witnessed it, Dirakit felt an indescribable stimulus in his head.

That wasn’t the end. As the potion poured on the back of his hand healed the boy’s wounds, knowledge of alchemy that he had never recognized before began to well up in his head.

Dirakit inherited demon blood. The devil was inevitably a being that coveted human souls.

Of course, even though Dirakit was weak, he had a habit of longing for human souls, and he recognized aura from the moment he was born.

However, he had never learned how to handle aura from anyone. So, he didn’t even know how it could be used.

That is now a thing of the past. Dirakit felt mastered.

I drew all the theories and answers in my head about how the potion regenerates the damaged body.

There was no need to study additionally, and there was no reason to work hard. I understood it just by seeing it. Such was the genius of talent.

Rain wet or not, she mumbled like someone hypnotized, repeating her theories in her head.

Seeing her appearance, Bi Eun-hyeon was relieved that her own judgment was correct.

I even hurt myself on purpose. She showed the process of the potion working right in front of her eyes.

If Dirakit had not learned the knowledge of alchemy with this, a potion costing hundreds of millions of won per bottle would have been a waste.

‘This is what Aram just gave me.’

I tried it because there was a flashback scene in the manga where Dirakit realized his talent after seeing the potion, but honestly, it was a gamble.

“…… I want to try it.”

Dirakit murmured.

The knowledge that popped into my head just now has not been proven. I thought the theory was right, but it was just a delusion in the end unless there was evidence. So, I wanted to test it out in real life to see if this really works.

To the point of withdrawal, the desire to prove knowledge welled up. This was the influence of a demon, her father.

“…… ?”

I lost my eye for a moment. It was because of the bizarre scene in which bipedal cats and a young boy set a table together.

The appearance, far from reality, was like a scene from a mysterious old fairy tale.

It’s a rainy day, but would you like to have a tea party? Not so.

To keep the water from dripping, the table was lined with flasks and distillation equipment, as well as various jewels and chemicals.

All of them were essential items for alchemy.

“Whatever you make, it’s up to you.”

Freedom. It means you can do whatever you want.

Dirakit had no time to think right now other than proving his knowledge. I didn’t doubt Bi Eun-hyeon’s sudden favor, and ran straight to the table.

I grabbed the tools I had never seen before. Even so, his hand moved skillfully. It was thanks to the presence of a clear image in my head.

In order to summon the mysteries that can be said to be the essence of alchemy, you need aura. However, there was no spiritual energy among the prepared materials. It was fine though.

Now I know how to draw aura. It was enough to pull it out of my body. You’ll get a little tired, but you can handle that much.

He moved his hand without pause.

Time passed aimlessly.

Around the time the rain stopped.

Excluding potions, three additional types of elixirs were created on the table.

Considering that it took half a day for a skilled alchemist to produce one elixir, the work speed was truly incomparable.

One of them, the elixir that was golden like the eyes of Bieun-hyeon, was the enhancer he kept aiming for.

“Ah!”

Dirakit, whose desire for proof was satisfied by creating three types of elixirs, including potions, finally remembered that he was working part-time.

It was a big deal. He hadn’t even emptied his food yet, and time passed by so quickly. I hurriedly tried to move a trash can larger than my body. But it was very light.

“I left it empty.”

“Huh? Go, thank you!”

Dirakit let out a short thank you and ran into the building.

Bee Eun-hyeon naturally smiled at her rabbit-like appearance. What he was thankful for was himself. If the effect of the elixir you made was certain, it would be an ideal weapon for you as an ordinary person.

“Notes… ….”

Aram muttered softly from behind. As she hid, she was documenting every aspect of the girl Dirakit.

This was unavoidable. Even though there are three beauties around her, it is Bi Eun-hyeon who has never once spoken of her appearance as a compliment.

That girl was the only object he described as ‘cute’.

Bieunhyeon and Aram were of the same age. Considering Bi Eun-hyeon as her love object, she knew very well that it was a book. Of course, she didn’t even dream. Even so, it was a woman’s heart to want to be praised for her appearance by the person she loves.

‘Purple twin tails, pink eyes, white skin… oh, this also applies to me Come to think of it, Eunhyun and her younger sister also have twin tails. Do you like this style?’

I gently grabbed both of her hair.

“How is it?”

The three cats shook their heads in unison.

“Nyan!”

“Ooooong!”

“Meow!”

The evaluation of the cats was as follows.

-Sister. Don’t be shy, do what you were good at.

―In the younger generation, older sisters who feel maternal love are the trend. I think it would be better for him to grow up and aim for a piece of cake.

―It doesn’t suit me! Chiu!

Aram held back tears at the harsh evaluation of the cats. Still, he held her hand tightly. Because I was too young to give up praise.

***

Cha Yeon-hwa has been in a good mood lately.

It was thanks to the complete escape from the slum area where I thought I should stay for the rest of my life.

I am 10 years old. She had to go back to elementary school, but she didn’t feel the need to.

As I became an Awakener, I obtained divine protection and came to deal with aura.

In the National Library, there were a lot of professional books related to divine protection and spirituality.

It was much more rewarding and enjoyable to build up the knowledge of an Awakener with this than to study with immature children at school.

Cha Yeon-hwa, who had a wish to see her grandmother’s photos again, now has a new goal.

As her grandmother had said during her lifetime, the ideal was to create a family.

Her grandmother always said that her love was the most important factor for her family, but Cha Yeon-hwa didn’t think so.

It was the result of first-hand experience of poverty and absurd situations.

To form a family, you need at least the strength to protect your children from threats and the financial strength to keep them from going hungry. Cha Yeon-hwa was so sure.

She

Of course, she had no intention of asking for it only from her companion. For that reason, she studied and trained every day.

When her grandmother was alive, her basic living expenses came out. But she’s not out now.

Actually, food, clothing, and shelter were all problems that could be solved by entering the orphanage. However, she didn’t want to.

It is an old and poor village, but apart from the slums, Cheonrim was a relatively safe country with heroes everywhere. So, I wanted to stay in the house with memories of her grandmother.

After she kept looking around, she found a job. It was her job as a children’s wear model.

After she puts on the clothes a few times, she gave her hundreds of thousands of won for it, so at first she wondered if it was strange. If she made a mistake, she was prepared to mess around. Fortunately, she wasn’t at all.

The boss, who wore feminine makeup even though he was a man, was a really nice person, and thanks to that, I was able to live a more affluent life than before.

If you look at it today, it is.

I came to eat out at a restaurant.

Among all her food, Cha Yeon-hwa liked her beef the most. She lightly ordered a T-bone steak and a glass of Coke.

She was waiting for food.

The highly developed sensory organs unique to the Awoken picked up a certain sound.

“Ohh, who is this? Aren’t you the kitchen assistant who spent the longest three hours?”

“…… Sorry.”

“Go away.”

“I will not even be paid this month. Could you please give me one chance?”

“I said go away, you b*tch! Like you in my kitchen…….”

This is not the sound you heard.

It was a smaller, thin sound. It sounded like a bug crawling, a sound I often heard when hiding in her gutter.

Doo-doo-doo, the inside of the restaurant vibrated so that it was clearly transmitted to the ears.

The items on the shelf fell one by one. The chandelier in the air also swayed greatly from side to side. Sensing danger, people took shelter under the table.

Doo-doo-doo-Duk. The sound cut off.

A silence hung over the restaurant.

I didn’t feel any tremors.

Cha Yeon-hwa kept her eyes on one place.

That was when people were leaving the table again.

“Gooooo!”

A monster with the body of a centipede and the face of a shark appeared through the ground.

After trying Cha Yeon-hwa, if she liked it, she would pay back Eun-hyeon and buy her food here.

“Sheesh, that’s wrong too.”

Raising her hand, she activated her protection.
