Apprentice Alchemist Bakes Bread - Relaxed Collection and Forest Workshop Life

Breakfast is the rest of the broiled cube bread and soup.

I knew this bread felt like butter would stain the whole thing just a little bake...... ok! With all this hassle, I'm sure even the expedition can do it.

I brew dark eyed coffee for Mr. Bardo, who seems to have slept a little, and coffee for Mr. Letterio and Mr. Lulusus. I'm a cafe ole, hot chocolate for Mr. Lamberto and Ignis. Mr. Lamberto...... he really liked it. I'm glad you said it was delicious... but yeah, I'm chocolate-staining around my mouth with Ignis.

The topic during the meal, of course, concerns the change in Mr. Letterio's silver watch and the man who gave me the 'Princess's White Bulb', which I believe he collected at the bottom. Mr. Bardo said, "You have a woman to give it to, and you think Iris has one? You're a man who's not even Roku!?," he was angry that way, not that man's creepy.

"Tell me if you notice anything else."

Mr. Lamberto looked around at everyone as he licked the chocolate.

"Then from me. This is a silver watch, but I think the red on the board has slightly increased. I was up to seven minutes last night, but now it's just halfway between seven and eight minutes red. And a long needle... I wonder if it keeps moving."

"... that's disgusting"

"Red is again, you know?

Mr. Bardo's "Hey?" Everyone nods at it. That color of red, after all, makes you feel the attributes of blood and flames. The state in which it is twitching and spreading...... I knew it was a little scary.

Mr. Lamberto glanced at the clock with a sinister face, and Cornu said, "Like purifying Cite. Ka?," he mutters. Lulusu-kun smells it and looks like he enjoys watching the magnifying glass (Lupe) in his hand.

"... Ignis? What's the matter with you?

Usually, I have a lot of shaggy Ignis with Lulusu-kun. A modest peek into the clock from behind my hood.

"I feel the power of the Spirit of Fire (Salamander)."

"Huh?"

Speaking of which, Ignis said the labyrinth also showed signs of the power of the Spirit of Fire (Salamander).

"No way......"

I turned a chilling glance at Mr. Bardo.

Spirits and demons with great power can affect the surrounding environment. When I say what's possible in this place - it's a flaming dragon.

I hear that the thirty-five layers and the environment beneath them have actually changed after the flame dragon came out, and it is convincing to think that the material of the flame attribute has recently become available.

"I'm sure that flaming dragon is somewhere, but only this time it should be okay. Yesterday, Cornu used his powers to a great extent."

"Ooh! This ole purified it perfectly, and Flaming Dragon, who doesn't like water, can't come by for a while Ze!

"Oh yeah! Good......"

I exhale ho. And stroke Ignis hiding in the hood like he was a little frightened, grinning.

"It's okay, Ignis."

"Ugh, yeah... but I'm sticky - not scared, huh? I'm just a little soaked up!"

"Yeah. Ignis has never met another Spirit of Fire."

Yes, the Spirit of the earth (Gnome), the Spirit of the Wind (Silf), and the Spirit of the Water (Undine) are there, but only the Spirit of Fire (Salamander) rarely sees it now. Rather than being small in number, they are finding less than a medium power Flaming Spirit (Salamander).

Is that why Ignis has not yet met any of his other compatriots?

- I don't know why there aren't many flaming spirits (salamanders), but Ignis was a substandard kid, after all. He's small, and he signed with an apprentice (me), so I thought he was growing up just as well...

Ignis used to make big flame walls when he drew potion effects and high leg spiders... maybe he's actually the top flame spirits (salamanders) with great power.

"Iris?

What's wrong ~? and peek into me, that round face is cute instead.

"Nothing"

◆

"I think the change in the silver clock is due to a dozen eighty-nine, and a foothold in the bottom thirty-eight"

That's what Mr Letterio said.

"There was no change before I went in there. And this color... I don't think it has anything to do with the change in that place."

"Right."

"I guess."

"Um... what's a change?

I raised my fearful hand and asked.

I guess what Mr. Letterio said last night was also chilling.

"Oh, you forgot to share it with Iris and Lulus-kun"

With that said, Mr. Lamberto removed two flowers from the [fuzzy bag] of his hips.

"Thirty-eight floors is a flock of 'grass for supper'..."

"Oh, this is' Hope Moon Grass', isn't it?

On its hands are the thin red and deep red 'Hope Moon Grass'. The fruit in the center of the petal is also ripe in red and purple.

"Usually at this time of year, I can pick the" White Bulb of the Princess "of the highest quality... it's ripe for some reason and that came off."

It was Mr. Bardo who sighed.

You said you were picking it up to give it to Kara.

"But the full moon isn't yet. If it's true, it's too early to ripen. Why not? Plant cycles go crazy. I have to ask in the labyrinth. Oh, there's a place that's way out of line... right?

"That's right Na. One hierarchy, a whole labyrinth of time is stretching, Al, but Na."

"Heh - yeah... then it's really weird"

Exactly. "Xiao Xiao Grass" is inherited as "accumulating the magic of the moon…" but it turns out that it actually takes about a month to absorb the surrounding magic vegetables and accumulate their fruits, changing the petals from white to red.

A month's worth of magic is needed in order for White Waiting Grass - The Princess's White Bulb - to become Red Watching Moon Grass - The Knight's Red Bulb.

It also grows in the back of the workshop forest, but even in special forests, where spiritual protection is strong, the growth rate remains the same as elsewhere. If the environment is good, it's high quality, if it's bad, it's low quality… and it usually takes a month to grow that way. Exceptions, however, are in everything.

You know, the Spirit of Fire (Salamander) who's good at my bread and cooking...

"Uh-huh...? The more the growth rate changes, the darker the magic vegetables are...?

"The magic vegetables were definitely getting thicker. Last time I went into the labyrinth, Ignis said something was wrong with the magic vegetables."

"Yeah, yesterday too. It was so thick."

"Then the flowers on this street were all thin red to deep red and there shouldn't have been any white. So I think the man who gave Iris the white bulb broke into thirty-eight layers before yesterday and was hooked on some trap."

I see. Because that white bulb was collected before it turned red...

"Then you must have ripened in the past day or two. Because that guy wasn't that yo-yo."

But I feel like the timing is too good nonetheless. Yeah, that's why I don't know what it means to bother growing into a 'Knight's Red Bulb' after collecting the 'Princess's White Bulb'... but.

"Can't you think that maybe that guy caused it...?

"Huh?"

Everyone's voice overlapped.

"Do you mean you used medicine or magic to grow it?

"Yes, because even if the magic vegetables are unusually thick, I still can't believe there's a change in plant ecology... I don't think I can do it without the power from the outside."

"That was... a blind spot"

"Did you use magic or even contract spirits...?

"Were there any traces? Letterio, Lamberto"

"I'm not familiar with witchcraft, so whatever..."

"I was particularly curious...... how's Cornu?

"Wouldn't mind, Na! I only think of Ta as a thick and uncomfortable Na with flaming magic vegetables. What about Ignis?"

"Uh-huh... I couldn't breathe - I went right back to the thirty-seventh floor"

So the conversation breaks off, and the place quiets down with Singh.

Everyone seems to have something in mind for themselves. Well, I've said everything I thought, so I'd like to see a swarm of 'Hope Moon Grass' that's changing ~... I was just thinking.

And I had a batch of eyes with Mr. Letterio, who raised his face.

"- Iris, I need a favor. I was wondering if you could accompany me as an alchemist up to thirty-eight levels."

"What!? Fine, but I, am I not interrupting the fight?

"It's okay, Ze! Because my purification is working, the demons will come out.

Cornu stretched the corner he had kept short and proudly raised his head.

"We've confirmed the directions that have changed due to recent anomalies, and we've lifted the trap. I promise to protect Iris in case there is one."
