The Last Surviving Alchemist Wants to Live Quietly in the City

The wind was strong that day.

The wind blowing through the labyrinth city is cold and makes you feel winter is so imminent.

People on the road are also changing into thick clothes made from yagoo hair.

Mariella's shop, "The Wood Leak Day," was also pompous and warm on a day like this, and it was crowded with regular customers.

Sieg and Lynx were having a late lunch in the kitchen, and Mariella, who had finished her meal earlier, was working with Miss Cal on a drink with Linus wheat while she was doing her store number.

"Mr. Mariella's medication is boosting its effectiveness with linus wheat, isn't it? Speaking of which, your brother was also looking for Linus wheat to do some research on.

After cooking the shelled linseed wheat, Mariella's medicine is used to refine and mix herbal ingredients extracted from herbs and herbs crushed and pasted into pastes, thus increasing the herbal effect with the effect of Shizuku of life contained in linseed wheat. When I first went to the wholesale market, the Agwinas bought Linus wheat and had little stock, but did Cal's brother buy it?

What I'm using now, by the way, is a new product recently harvested. They bought a large quantity in anticipation of the bulk purchase of the Agwinas family, but did not come to buy it this time. He said he was in trouble over stock and welcomed Mariella's bulk purchase.

I tried mixing linus wheat without cooking it as a powder, using only the part of the germ where there is a lot of Shizuku of life, boiling it, cooking it, simmering it, trying all sorts of temperatures from low to high temperatures, but what I cooked to cook normally worked best.

Also, after crushing linus wheat, I have to work with the ingredients extracted from the herbs and medicinal herbs at best. It is understandable that I am not familiar with the Shizuku of Life contained in Linus wheat just by mixing it, but do you want it to be so refined?

If I make it after closing, I mix it with my alchemy skills, but I sometimes make it with Cal at the counter of the store these days. At that time, I naturally have to work out with a rind bowl and a thrill.

It's a long task that reminds me of General Oil, crafting oak and oak king fat all over the place.

What will you do if you succeed in both arms? When Mariella made a force tumor and showed it to her, Lynx snickered out of the kitchen, picked Mariella's two arms puffy and laughed "haha" and went back to the kitchen.

What is it? When I think of it, I can be puffy on Sieg.

"Ku......" You laughed, you just laughed.

As I sent a slight gaze to Sieg, who disappeared into the kitchen, I blurted from behind to Master Cal.

"Ugh."

Beautiful girl smile cute.

Merle from Merle Pharmaceutical Grass Store rushed in as she was soothed by Cal's beautiful girl Smile with a pair of dwarves who were hanging around in the sun.

"Mariela, it was a laundry. Didn't you miss the dry line? I'm dancing a lot.

That said, it was Mariella's pants that Mr. Merle gave Mariella.

"Yeah eh. Jijiji, Sieg, hey! Hurry up! We have an emergency!

Mariella and Sieg rush to pick up the windy laundry. Mariela's pants were rescued by Mr. Merle, but Sieg's pants are missing.

Caroline stares at Mariella and Sieg, who once leave to pick up the laundry.

"Those two, they live together, don't they? Lovers...... I wonder?

Mr. Merle devours Caroline with a puffy twinkle. Mr. Merle is the wife's face in this neighborhood. Rumor sensor accuracy is not uniform. This is more of a specialty than the herbs and tea leaves that are handled at Merle's Herbal Store.

"Anything, I'm from the same village and I'm childhood friendly. Since Sieg became an adventurer and left the village, he's been a little silly. Mariella came after me and helped me where I was sent to the Labyrinth City (here).

"Well."

Caroline doing her hand on her mouth with elegance. Mr. Merle's vague rhetoric stirs up his imagination.

"Mariella says it's childhood friendly, but that's the difference that year, isn't it? So, I don't even follow you to the labyrinth city or anything. Even this house would be a common house from Master Cal, but it's hard to live in.

Mariella doesn't seem to have any other family, and I'm sure she's living like this by adding anything she inherits from her parents.

"Mm-hmm.

Caroline is also an old daughter, even though she is a courtier. I love the subject of this hand.

Siege was always in a position to guard Mariella and at first thought she was an escort. Caroline has had escorts since she was a little girl. What I realized was not just an escort was Siege staring at Mariella. Naturally, the escort wouldn't take his eyes off the subject, but he thought the heat in his sight was different from his own.

From Caroline's perspective, I think Mariela's attitude towards Sieg is natural and familial. Instead, Lynx looks more friendly and worries about the relationship between the three of us.

I'm sure the two are more than childhood friendly and less than lovers. Maybe there's room for Lynx to get in. To such an imagination, Caroline thrives properly.

Caroline has an alchemist's fiancée in Teito. I've never met anyone before. She said she was 20 years older. Much older, but I hear he's a high-ranking alchemist who can make advanced potions and has several disciples.

The Agwinas family has been researching potions for generations. I can't make potions in the same way as an alchemist, more than I can't connect a pulse to a line in a labyrinth city. In order to develop magic drugs that are highly effective without the use of Shizukuishi, we need information on how to handle herbs and create potions that will be handed over to the Alchemist as a Library, as well as special magic drugs that are kept secret.

In order to obtain this information and knowledge, the Agwinas family has for generations placed children other than their sons into apprenticeships at various alchemists in the Imperial capital and have made connections by entering into matrimonial relationships.

Caroline's engagement is part of it. As a proper wife, Caroline is 20 years older and remarried. My ex-wife and I are dead, I hear she has no children, but what the hell kind of person is she? Caroline is also a child of nobility. Political marriage is accepted as a matter of course, but it is unusual for parents and children to be as different. Even though they grew up in labyrinth cities physically isolated in mountain ranges and demonic forests from the Imperial capital. Even though I am anxious to just say I will marry you to the Imperial City, my anxiety cannot be exhausted when I think of the difference this year. A few years later, thinking of leaving the labyrinth city and marrying the Empire City, Caroline's heart shakes anxiously like the leaves of a tree dancing in the wind.

Caroline, the daughter of an aristocrat, works as a pharmacist to wholesale merchandise to the Adventurer Guild, or comes to Mariela, a commoner, every day, not least because the labyrinth city is a closed place. The only time she can live freely is probably while in a labyrinth city. He is silenced as the last selfish person before marriage.

(May I live well with my future husband...

Caroline stares at Mariella and Siege as they grab the laundry and discuss "I'm glad they found it all" and more.

I haven't heard of Mariela and Sieg's age, but they look close to 10 years apart. In the calm air flowing between them, Caroline hoped that a happy future would come for herself and her fiancée as well.

"Well, Mariella looks like that, so I think you're hanging on to the push of Zeke.

Rumor has just begun that there is not enough fuel (material) to burn. Don't you guys have any stories? You renovated this store, didn't you? and Mr. Merle sends his gaze to the three Dwarves all the time. I fear a demonic gaze at prey.

"Let's get back to work.

"We have to put this flash together in the drawing.

"I forgot to ask you to fix the window.

The uncomfortable Dwarf threesome stood up and left the store in solidarity with Mariella and the others who had returned to the front of the store. As usual, he bought me every can of wound medicine. I guess it's a tea replacement, but they buy drugs every day every day and give them to adventurers who are closed due to injuries they hired in the slam.

"Hang in there, man." "Good luck." "Fight is awesome."

Three Dwarves sending Yale to Sieg.

Mariella and Siege, who returned to the store with some encouragement for the mysteries of the Dwarves, grew into a glimmer of Merle's gaze.

"Sa and I guess I'll go home, too. Marieller, I can't come for a couple of days. You eat your own lunch. Bye, Sieg. It's gambling.

Lynx also left the kitchen and said so, shaking and stroking Mariella's head back.

"Yeah, okay - I can eat it myself for about lunch -.

I can't hold the laundry in my hands and defend my head. Mariella says so with her mouth pointed. I have Lynx's hand on my head and I don't see Lynx's face.

Lynx's gaze captures Siege and moves to show Caroline and her escort. Sieg realizes that Lynx's "gumball" means something different than the Dwarf trio.

"Oh, be careful.

Answering that, Sieg and Mariella went back to the store to replace Lynx.

(Neither Agwinas' lady nor her escort made any strange moves when Mariella or Sieg left the store.

Lynx thinks with a far-sighted look at Mariella's shop.

The Agwinas family warrant showed up at Mariella's store at the time Mariella started delivering the potion in bulk. Mariella's potion has been put on the healing of wounded soldiers and securing inventory of the Labyrinth Crusaders, and has not yet spilled over to other aristocrats.

Information about the Labyrinth Crusade has been hidden for years and has been manipulated not only by the current hierarchy of arrivals, but also by Leonhardt's injuries and even by the fact that the Labyrinth Crusade was on the verge of destruction. Information such as the labyrinth exceeding 50 hierarchies cannot flow to the private sector. People see the brave march of the Labyrinth Crusaders headed for the expedition, boiling down to the activities of the adventurers who enliven with the expedition and the various materials brought from the labyrinth, but they are unaware of when the soldiers returned.

Although it is known among some humans that the Agwinas family is a family of alchemists who have been managing potions for 200 years, raising the blood path to creating potions from generation to generation, no information has been heard that all of their power is devoted to alchemy, and that they possess particularly high intelligence or powerful force.

It's too early to be noticed Mariela's presence, Lynx thinks.

(Well, sometimes just in case.

Even after Caroline showed up, no suspicious signs were detected around Mariella's shop. Neither Caroline nor her escorts have seen any suspicious movements.

Do you want to go a little deeper? Lynx's shadow disappeared into the alley.
