12-42 gossip 22 Eschenbach family circumstances

The head of the Eschenbach family, Toa Eschenbach, is an alchemist. Is his daughter, Saki Eschenbach, an alchemist apprentice or something?

Alchemy is' there was' in the discipline of trying to produce gold and other precious metals from low metals such as lead. From a slightly broader perspective, it is the art of identifying the essence of matter and creating new substances.

but over time, the content was transforming and was now becoming a discipline equivalent to so-called 'chemistry'.

On the other hand, some still try to smelt gold or create artificial humans (homunculus).

but the mainstream was still shifting to 'chemical' content. Unlike that of modern Earth, it would have been in that magic intervenes.

"Dear Saki, it's time for dinner"

Lawton, a servant of the Eschenbach family, calls out from outside the lab.

…………

But I haven't heard back. Lawton, determined, opened the lab door.

……

Lawton against an unusual odor.

In the center of the lab, an iron plate with yellow powder was placed, under which the fire was burning. Saki is nodding on the floor by his side.

"Master Saki!

Lawton stopped breathing and as he jumped into the room, he jumped out of the room with Saki in his arms and closed the door.

"Ha, ha, ha"

Saki breathing rough. Sounds like he's keeping consciousness somehow.

Lawton, who had been watching as he was for about five minutes, but when he learned that Saki's breathing had returned to normal,

"Master Saki! What the hell are you doing!

I put my blame into the discourse and yelled out loud. You could have died if you had taken a wrong step.

"Oh, oh, I'm sorry, Lawton. … it's interesting that petals are decolored when they are twisted into sulphur-burning smoke"

Gases of sulphite...... decolorized by the reducing action of sulphur dioxide, but at the same time toxic to sulphite gas. If you inhale it, it's the worst toxic gas you can breathe in your lungs and die of.

The lab, which seemed to be full of poison gas, broke the window and ventilated for two days before finally being able to use it.

"Mr. Esse, hey, there's something unusual about it."

A farmer with a barrel knocked on the door.

Esse is an abbreviation for the Eschenbach family, and that's what all the neighbors call it.

"Hmm? Which one?

Saki opened the door and let her peek into her face. Before that, the farmer puts the barrel down.

"This is it. A rare stone came out of the lake."

It was a stone close to transparency, with only a squeaky rectangle. That's a few in there.

"Break it, break it, break it, break it."

"Well, that's interesting. Let's buy it."

That's what Saki said, offering him three pieces of silver coins that were in his pocket unwrought. And the farmer received it with great joy, and left every barrel.

"Hmm, when I break it like this...... oh, it really broke into the same shape! This is funny."

Saki put the small broken stone in a book that was open, without any concern.

The book was written by Saki's father, Toa Eschenbach, and is called "Alchemy Overview".

Written in addition to his household income, the book becomes an alchemy bestseller, and sometimes part of his sales comes into the Eschenbach family.

The silver coin that Saki put out of his pocket earlier is part of that.

Aside from that, Saki, who saw the stone she put on, was amazed at all the jumping out of her chair.

Because the letter below is visible through that stone, which is close to transparency, but it was doubled.

"Ko, what is this!? No way, this stone has the effect of adding more stuff!?

Then for a whole day, he was Saki, who forgot to sleep and worked on studying the stones, but ended up not knowing anything and finally fell asleep trying to stick him up on the workbench.

"Lady!"

Galt, a servant who jumped in with the door open, rushed to help Saki up.

"Hmm, sleepy... hungry... I want something to eat..."

Galt sighs.

"Please be clear if you want to sleep or eat..."

"My name is Lorna, thank you"

Seventeen or eight year old girls bowed politely. He's a new servant hired by the Eschenbach family.

"I'm Saki. Nice to meet you, Lorna."

Until now, I was a man's servant, but this time by saying a girl, Saki allowed herself to take care of herself and a lot of things.... in the beginning. That's now......

"Master Saki, please wake up. It's lunch!

"Hmm, put some more sleep... I was up till dawn..."

It's good to stay up late and sleep till noon.

"Master Saki! Haven't you had it yet!

"Oh, oh, I'm sorry. Hey, the nature of this stone was interesting."

"What are you talking about! I put it next to me for lunch. And it's already night."

Forget eating too and try to immerse yourself in research.

"Lorna, I'm sorry. I don't think I have any money this month..."

"Oh, again? You haven't been paid for two months since last month, have you?

"I'm so sorry. 'Cause next month there's supposed to be money in there."

I apologize for saying that. Lorna looked worried.

"Hmm, can't this liquid be used for paint?

Black sticky liquid in a barrel. That's sap. That's what the traveling merchant brought in when he heard rumors about the Eschenbach family.

Says he has no eyes for rare things.

Just a little bit of hella and I'll apply it to the board. It seemed sticky and I could apply it thinly. That means the coating is thin.

"You could paint a small amount of it over a large area."

It was the saki I expected, but the next day, and the day after that, the black sap did not show how dry it was. If you follow it with your finger, it sticks and pulls the thread.

On several occasions, Saki accidentally scratched her cheek with those fingers. I rushed to wipe it with a cloth, but my face became itchy from that night on.

"Hmm, that's itchy. What's the matter with you?

When I scratched it unbearably, the itch healed at that time, but after a while it became itchy again. If I had done that repeatedly, I couldn't even sleep.

"Lady, it's morning......!!

Lorna, who came to wake Saki, looked out. Because the right half of Saki's face was swollen up, and blisters were formed everywhere.

The scratch also seeped blood, which seemed tragic.

"Ki, yah!

I've screamed, Lorna, but you won't be able to blame me me.

"Oh, that feels good"

The itch healed slightly when I hit the wet towel provided by Lorna and let it cool.

But that Rhona doesn't want to come near Saki. Saki's face is swollen and she thinks it's some kind of illness.

And Lorna speaks of her resignation.

"Thank you for your help"

"Hey Lorna, would you reconsider?

"No, even if they say so, it's already the limit. Dear Saki, please love yourself. Say hello to your husband."

Deeply thankful, Lorna walked away without even looking back.

"... man, is this the third? Is that the fourth? It's troublesome not to have a servant at all..."

It was three days ago, when Aal was finished.
