Kuro no Maou
Episode 90: Preparing for Interception (2)
While the adventurers played their part everywhere, Lily and Fiona were also preparing in one room of the Alsace Village Adventurers Guild.
"Product"
Lily's chants echoing indoors, and the magic of light unfolding around her.
Whenever Lily spins a spell, the mountain and the white powder served in the vessel in front of her repeats faintly and brightly.
……
Fiona stares silently at Lily, who is young and yet exerts a concentration reminiscent of a skilled craftsman.
In contrast to Lily, who exercises her magic by sweating on her forehead, Fiona had a more sleepy face in a circle than usual, engaging in the easy task of crushing the gorilla and even the herb with the rind and breast stick that she hands.
"Coupon -!!
Strong and magical formation emits light, and extinguishes at the next moment.
The magical effect seemed to have been exerted, and Lily rolled onto the floor, throwing out her short hands and feet and breathing "Phew."
"So it's done?
Fiona called out to Lily, who just seemed to be playing and napping.
"Mmm, not yet.
And then there's the final finish. "
Lily responds with an energetic voice that hardly makes her feel tired, although sweat is floating on her little face.
Fiona has a slightly rude feeling about "the state of the child is really cute" in such a way.
"Really? So you need to go back to where you were later."
"Yeah, Lily, I'll do my best!
A grinning smile, "You're the only one who can see this now, your original personality seems to be a lot belly black," he felt even more rude.
"Mine is almost over, and a bunch of lixay grass seems to be the last in a minute right now.
There's nothing more I can do to help, so as soon as I'm done, I'm going to work on creating a ‘normal’ potion. "
What the two of them are currently doing was the task of creating ‘special’ things rather than ‘normal’.
It is a 'fairy spirit medicine', a panacea of trust and track record that Lily has been selling for thirty years.
Previously used primarily for the treatment of diseases, it has only been created by collecting excerpts from Lily's inherent magic (extra), which also has an extraordinary effect on trauma with bleeding.
We're going to fight the Crusaders, not enough drugs to cure them.
Now we are in a mass production system of potions and other restorative drugs, gathering materials from all over the village, with the aim of the three days foreseen by Chrono.
Among them, Leprechaun's Psychotropic Medicine boasts a healing effect that far surpasses the store-selling potion. Lily's top priority and necessary materials have been collected and are in the process of creating them.
"If I was good at healing magic too..."
Fiona's whining didn't sound like Lily, but it was an undeniable fact that she was sending a slightly enviable glance from people to her who depended on her for their healing power.
If he was a healing magic user rather than an outburst of attack magic, he might have helped people without being neglected by anyone, and Fiona stops thinking that such an idea is futile.
"Now I'm part of the Element Master, Mr. Chrono and Mr. Lily are acknowledging me, that's enough"
Though the anxiety remains, Chrono and Lily have embraced Fiona more happily than anyone I've ever worked with.
"Besides, let's just say that you have a good mastery of how to make potions."
Fiona switches her mind and thinks of various medicinal herbs, drugs and knowledge of healing magic in her brain.
In fact, when it comes to healing magic in this other world, there were two kinds.
These are the two: the 'healing (heel)' of a temporary healing effect and the 'healing (cure)' of an effect that promotes natural healing power to completely heal the wound.
The 'healing (heel)' type is also rightly called healing magic, as the general term for the magic of the effect of healing wounds is' healing magic '.
Although common sense for inhabitants of different worlds, Krono, whose image of RPG's 'restorative magic’ is deeply on his mind, gradually realized this difference after about a month of living in the village of Iles.
For example, if a fellow is slashed with a knife by a goblin, the healing magic practitioner definitely chooses the 'healing' type first.
Because to the extent that you have been slashed on your hands and feet with a knife, you can immediately block the wound with a lower 'heel'.
But with the 'cure' type, the wound doesn't immediately block.
It is only natural that the magic of instant healing, whether temporary or temporary, is treasured in a battle where life and death are separated by a delay of just one second.
But the effect is only temporary, and the blocked wound opens up again in response to a magical decrease in magic.
If there is only one battle, the wound heals naturally if it is properly handled and rested, but adventurers and soldiers don't get waxed like that.
Therefore, a "cure" is required to completely heal the wound much sooner than usual.
In this other world, it is impossible to heal wounds with a single magic shot, as in the game, but in terms of blocking trauma, it works well beyond modern medicine.
And the same thing can be said for medicines that have healing magic effects, starting with potions.
Naturally, there are also two types of potions: 'heal' and 'cure'.
An incurable adventurer uses two different potions to challenge his quest.
Incidentally, there are also all-purpose healing magic and chemicals that have both 'healing' and 'curing' effects.
One of them is the Phantom of the Fairy.
Lily has been selling it for as cheap as even villagers can buy, but if it flows to the right route, it is a substitute for a single gold coin that is not high enough.
I don't know if Lily, the young lady, recognizes it correctly.
"Okay, next!
As Lily blinked her feathers and jumped off the floor, she jumped straight down onto the big table.
There is a wide variety of materials arranged there, starting with Fiona's crushed herbs, each in vessels and bottles.
From here, formulate based on secret recipes that only Lily knows.
If it's a commonly distributed potion, Fiona, who used to go to a magic school, naturally knows how to generate it, but she doesn't have anything to do with Lily's original "fairy spirit pills" created by inherent magic (extras) other than to prepare the ingredients and give them away.
Lily puts a tremendous strain on the concentration she needs to formulate, on the enormous amount of magic she consumes to celebrate the healing magic effect, but there's nothing more she can do than make it.
Besides, you have to finish the Fairy Spirit Potion, which usually takes a whole month to create, in three days, the crusader's impending respite.
If you don't go back to where you were in the first place, that means you have to wait until the full moon night before the psychic pills are complete.
Because Lily says "The Last Finish" requires advanced magic that cannot be exercised in a child state.
It would not have been possible to produce 'Fairy Spirit Medicine' in a short time of three days, which would not have included a full moon night.
But Lily's possession of the Red Crystal Ball (Queen Beryl) allowed this unscrupulous short-term production.
"Mm-hmm..."
Lily holds a vessel and a bottle in both hands, frowning and challenging the formulation with serious eyes.
(It is formulated as is without using a scale... can you really do that? No, I guess she can)
The exact amount was not measured, and Lily's appearance, whimsical and mixed, only seemed like a toddler who aroused the whole thing.
Even at dusk, when the sun began to tilt and the sky stained red, workers engaged in fortification work near the main gate of the village of Alsace had no way of withdrawing.
There were only three days when construction could be done safely, although it was only natural to choose night construction while consuming expensive oil and lighting the light.
And of course, Krono, the leader of the Alliance of Adventurers, continued his work, rather than the work he was going to have to do all night.
"Mm-hmm. You're such a monster"
"Good day, and then it's my job."
Behind the Alliance are the dark combinations of Chrono and Mozurn, the Black Wizard and the Dark Mage.
These two often cooperate with each other when they do something, either because they use magic of a similar nature.
In particular, it seems that Krono, who has no spare time for the development of new black magic day and night, has been taught a variety of things about the magic of dark attributes by Mozurn, and has made improvements to the procedure by sewing between preparations.
"Really, this is the end of my job, all the time"
Nestled against the wall, Mozurn had grown many black and creepy tentacles like the one materialized by the shadow itself from the gap of the pitch-black robe that surrounded him.
Uneune stretches out onto the Alliance's walls, painting the white painted walls on campus with black tentacles painting the magic formation in inky shades.
The magic formation also seemed to have already been completed as per Mozurn's dialogue, and the tentacles finished their role and disappeared into the hollow like a single bottle and a black mist.
"Hey, I'm tired, I had a hard time covering the Alliance walls in half a day."
Mozurn spent half a day alone drawing elaborate dark magic formations on all sides except the rectangular shaped guild and the bottom that bordered the ground.
The effect of that magic formation is in itself simplicity, strengthening the attributes of darkness, only one of them.
However, it incorporates' perpetual (etanity) 'that prevents magic effects from deteriorating and extinguishing due to reduced magic power, making the procedure very complete.
"But I don't know if I can do it for you."
He was the one who showed such rank four sorcerer skills,
"I can't believe you enhanced (boosted) the whole guild"
Krono's proposed strengthening of the guild was half-hearted by the boulders.
There is naturally magic to strengthen the facility, but it is a massive ‘renovation' carried out by multiple magicians with the same hassle as a carpenter building a house.
For example, such things as making the walls themselves have the ability to connect, like Daedalus, are typical magical institutional enhancements.
In accordance with the common sense of magicians, it is reasonable for five operators of rank 3 equivalent to apply some defensive effect to the entire Alsace Village Alliance, a four-story building, over a period of one week.
But Krono said he'd try to fortify the whole building by himself, and only overnight.
He expected that Mozurn, a legitimate magician, would do well if he could strengthen the word in half over three days of precision, which is unbelievable.
"It's okay, if we just strengthen the walls, we'll figure it out, or we'll figure it out"
But the adult Mozurn did not dare to speak out his own suspicions, but decided to trust the words of a powerful leader for now to see how things were going.
Good luck with that, Chrono's husband.
Mozurn followed the scene with a flickering palm of white bones.
Krono, who remained alone, pressed his hands against the black magic formation he had just completed.
- That's amazing.
From the palms that touched the magic formation, it was immediately felt that black magic activated.
"This is going to be over by sunrise tomorrow"
Convinced of success, Chrono closes his eyes and concentrates his whole nerve on magical activation.
"Let's go -" Blackened ""
It is the magic of 'blackening' that envelops and strengthens weapons such as swords with their own magic, while allowing them to manipulate freely without touching their hands.
He had already mastered it when Chrono escaped the facility, and it was also all sorts of memorable magic that the blackened sword helped Sariel destroy every time or open the chest containing the robe.
And perhaps the 'blackening' of all this guild will also be one of Chrono's new memories.
The effect common to the blackened things of chrono is, above all, that the substance is fortified first and foremost.
In short, Chrono is a simple idea, just like blackening and increasing the strength of the sword, trying to strengthen the guild of wooden architecture by blackening the building as it is.
However, it is natural that blackening is completed by wrapping the object entirely with black magic, which increases the amount required for that amount if the wrapping thing is larger.
This time around, a four-story building with a huge surface area far beyond swords and crates, its consumption is more than any magic ever done, and it can be expected to consume more magic than it did when it evolved that curse.
(But if you take the time of the night to blacken it a little bit, it will definitely look good)
If you weigh the consumption of blackening and your natural magic recovery on the scale, it is certainly possible, albeit theoretically.
While the focus and guts to continue exercising the magic of blackening are shredded, even if black magic recovers over time.
(I mean, it depends on my guts!!
That's how Chrono's long night began.
