The Last Surviving Alchemist Wants to Live Quietly in the City

"So, while Zeke was gone, Cal set up a pest control dumpling workshop. So, the processed sasolar stones are transported from the basement, into insecticide-specific intermediate potions here, to Cal's workshop via the Labyrinth Crusaders."

Drinking cocoa in front of the fireplace, Mariela tells them what happened while Sieg and the others went to Arliman Hot Springs to make them listen. Sieg is holding his head back a bit as to whether he nearly sees Mal (...) Ella's phantom in his long recap.

"So is Master Weishardt coming to 'Wood Leak Day'............?

It was Mariella who was present at Weishardt's inspection, but she doesn't realize at all that something started in his chest. I just sieged the "Dear Cal killed the cockroach magnificently in front of Master Weishardt" story. Even Sieg wouldn't have understood everything in Mariella's explanation. They don't have the special ability to read their intentions with just "Mariella" whining like Lynx does.

However, since that day, Weishardt, dressed as a soldier of the Labyrinth Crusader Army, visits the "Wood Leak Day" for Caroline's time on "Wood Leak Day".

"Hello, Master Cal. Beautiful today as well. Is Nielenberg here?

"Well, Master Weiss. That you're good. Teachers will be there."

Nothing at all. Neerenberg is sitting in a place well visible from the entrance to the "Wood Leak Day" to fulfill his duties as an exorcism statue. Even so, he only sees Caroline in Weishardt's eyes. The only alchemist in the Labyrinth City, the Lord of "Wood Leak Days," can no longer be called air until Mariella. When does my name even mimic Mariella and call me "Dear Cal" and make me call myself "Wace" too? Prince Smile is about 20% better, and even though he says he's coming through with sweets and flowers, Caroline at the heart doesn't seem to notice Weishardt's favor at all.

Weishardt's flowers are decorated on the "Wood Leak Day" to entertain regular customers' eyes, and most of the sweets disappear into regular customers' stomachs. Even today, he says, "If we're talking about work, the back office is empty," and he's trying to chase Weishardt to see himself.

A ghost and the famous Nielenberg also have to put out a help boat for this.

"If it's your usual business, it's fine here."

Two people who say so and move to the corner of the room. Usually, there is an exchange of information that is not misplaced here.

"By the way, when do you get all the 'confectionery'?

"It's like a couple of days. I have manpower in 'Delivery'. Nielenberg, come with me."

"Copy that."

For what Mariella created yesterday, the insecticide-specific intermediate potion has all the necessary quantities. Now I'm working on a ton of dough at Cal's dough factory. Medicine agitation demonic props have been enlarged to allow for massive agitation, and the dough that has been made has been transported in turn to the base of the Labyrinth Crusader Army. It took a lot of time since the launch of the workshop, but given the amount of dough and the hassle of creating it, Mariella could have finished it in a shorter period of time than making it by herself.

Cockroach elimination dumplings are made by powdering or finely chopping up waste areas such as wheat, potatoes, onions, sugar shreds, oak fat, linus wheat fruit and seed skins, and other demonic fats and medulla, fruit and vegetable skins and scraps from the wholesale market and mixing them with potions. The amount of ingredients is enormous and just chopped or powdered is a big job. Manually round the mixed ingredients and seal them in a container after drying to prevent the bugs from coming. It can be said that a thorough day and night man-made tactics and efficient work of magic tools made it possible to increase production in a short period of time.

On a continuous basis, Caroline's willingness to work in the workshop grew slightly during the time of the workers' replacement. At the end of the last shipment to the Labyrinth Crusaders, it would have been a delightful miscalculation to hear a slight but united feeling among the slaves and technicians who were once 'materials' and 'those who manage' and even 'want to work in this workshop as it were'.

************************************************************

A few days later, after receiving all the dough, the Labyrinth Crusaders went to the final showdown with the Black Devil.

"Good luck."

Weisshardt, who received words of encouragement from Caroline with the dough, no longer had any feelings of fear.

No, as usual, I still hated bugs, but every time I remember a black demon, Caroline's ambition to kill them "Peeko" floats around and restores calm.

"Fire magic is good, but ice magic works better."

I followed Caroline's teachings and increased the smell of ice magic. I will no longer commit the fault of unleashing fire magic in disorder. Two names are likely to be given to "Icy Prince" for the way he's going to be ice pickled the moment he sounds like a calf.

The outline of the crusade for the 55th hierarchy "Black Devil's Group" is simple. Firstly, a small number of troops, mainly magicians, set fire to the 55th tier, which rains enough to periodically say if even holes were drilled at the bottom of the 54th tier, so the timing of the arson is between precipitations, when the trees dry. Even if the hierarchy is completely burned, the fire is quenched with regular precipitation, and the forest regenerates at a tremendous rate. At the same time, the eggs left behind by the burnt black devil hatch, rapidly growing the grace of the forest into food. Approximately overnight for the forest to restore, including the black devil. This is the right time to spray the dough. Usually they come after food only to escape the Labyrinth Crusaders. Rapidly growing black demons will be undernourished. If you sprinkle the dough at this time, there must be no one left to eat.

Spraying the dough requires sudden attention. If it's blurry, the next rain will fall, the smell of the dough will fly, and the potion may spill out. So this is a maze crusader operation. Leonhardt's dragon horses and labyrinth crusaders also participate, and it is as if they were a large merchant squad because both men and beasts carry large amounts of dough.

One line reached the 54 (one top) hierarchy just yesterday when the fire that lit the Great Forest quenched the fire. In this labyrinth, the hierarchical lord will not be resurrected, so since crusading the "Pillars Floating in the Sea," this place has been turned into a safety zone. After the crusade of "Floating Pillars in the Sea," the 54 tiers had become shallow sea caves, and the strange fish mistakenly seen as mermaids never saw whether they were originally inhabited by the deep sea. Near the staircase connecting the hierarchy is enough land for the Labyrinth Crusaders to garrison, and now there are Labyrinth Crusaders soldiers waiting to enter the 55 levels.

"Begin Operation 55th Hierarchy 'Black Devil's Group' Crusade! All armies, him!

Soldiers running down the stairs one after the other, following Leonhardt's orders. I'm happily jumping into the 55 tiers that I've been so reluctant to do.

"If you eat this dough, it'll turn upside down and disappear in no time."

"Seriously? Wow! I want to see it."

Soldiers whispering in a whisper before the operation begins. When it comes to scenes where creatures eat things, it's interesting to be an animal insect. Makes me want to observe the eating scene, even the one in the shape of a mouth that I don't know very well when it comes to insects. The dramatic effects that you can see with your eyes are again.

The operation of feeding the black demons poisonous bait had disappointingly captured the curiosity and childish brutality of the soldiers, and the low combatability combined to create a hiking atmosphere.

"Don't get distracted! Until we get back to base, it's an operation!

Even that Nielenberg has a distracted voice somewhere. "It's an excursion until I get home," he preaches. I don't have any snacks but instead I distribute three potions at a time. Did you even get hit by the "leaky day" atmosphere? Noticed how distracted he was by his remarks, Nielenberg frowned slightly, stroking his inertially stretched jaw beard a little, and proceeded to the hierarchical staircase himself to do the spraying of the dough.

Approaching the hierarchical staircase, there is a tremendous amount of enthusiasm. The 55th floor is probably rising to the 54th (upper) level with plenty of rain evaporating in the ever-summer hierarchy. The demon doesn't move through the hierarchy, but there seems to be movement of air.

From limp coastal caves to ever-summer forests, you can't feel the coolness of 54 tiers if you land on 55 tiers and take a few steps. Defeating the Hierarchist maintains the climate environment on a tier-by-story basis, but the hierarchy where the Hierarchist is located seems to have more power to maintain the climate. 55 Hierarchies, etc. have been burned all over again without losing oxygen.

Nielenberg takes the assigned squad and runs out to the compartment in charge. I can see it sweating gently into the humid tropical air. The forest, which has just been regenerated, is still thin in green and shines in the light that penetrates and plugs the leaves. I feel like I'm going to come back to this point with the air and fresh green scent that I just created. If you can't see the shadow of the black devil here and there, you want to take a slow stroll.

Neerenberg and the others start spraying the dough on the compartment in charge.

A black shadow that crosses his path. There is no dough that should have been sprinkled after the shadow passed. Nielenberg silently sprays the dough as he pretends not to notice. He doesn't feel bad about black demons, but he doesn't want to stare either.

(If there's no air change, they'll suffocate, too, it's troublesome)

When I finish sprinkling the dough with that in mind, I go back the way I came. A black demon is flipping in the shade of the grass I saw, causing me to pull a creepy leg.

(Sure, interesting)

Black demons who move slower while watching and eventually lose their entities so that shadows disappear into the light they plug in. An individual who would have hatched from an egg, but a black demon that hasn't been around since birth doesn't seem to be receiving meat and disappears without a trace. Most eggs are not left behind.

(This hierarchy is hot)

I can't wait to have the heat to get up off the ground especially after the rain. It's like they're steaming from below. It may be just fine for them, but it's not an uncomfortable climate for humans.

(Oh, well. climate for them.)

Nielenberg thinks as he heads to the meeting point in front of the hierarchical staircase. I guess the labyrinth climate is adjusted to the right condition for demons living in the hierarchy. So even if all 55 levels are burned, there will be no oxygen loss. Because without oxygen, you will die as far as demons. Demons in this hierarchy have no high attack power, but high reproduction and regeneration power.

About half the soldiers had already returned to the assembly area. The men of the two armies are aligned in the corner even though they say it is good to withdraw after the report. You want to be present at the moment when the hierarchy lord is defeated and the door of a new hierarchy opens.

(Maybe this time)

(ii) There are few opportunities for the military to be present in the hierarchical main offensive. It's not like you're standing all over it, and the growth you get from experience is hard to get. Leonhardt and the others don't have the same idea, nor do they order the two aligning soldiers to return.

"But not you."

"Hey!

Nielenberg drops his genius on the familiar soldier. He was a brilliant soldier, but he was resting on a stone in a hiding place.

"Ya, Doctor. Right here, your ass is soggy, huh? Have a seat, Doctor. I'm a dick, too."

Soldier laughing at hehe.

"We're in the middle of an operation. Don't get distracted."

"Teachers can't be hard. You're gonna be a dick soon, aren't you?

Nielenberg commands the Bullshit soldier to return to the line. Did the soldiers who went to scatter the dough in the distance come back? The sound of stepping on the grass from afar approaches.

What a shameful doomsday to be tormented by such a black demon.

Watch some long idle labyrinth crusaders as they travel to Leonhardt and the others. Nielenberg flicks his eyebrows and fingers the inert beard of his jaw.

(Mm..., what? Something caught me......)

"Thank you for your hard work, Nielenberg. Later."

Leonhardt's eyes stare at the edge of the hierarchical staircase. If the operation works and the last black demon falls, a new staircase will emerge.

"What hierarchy is next…………"

Leonhardt crushing for no one.

Yes, this hierarchy was hot. I can't wait to get steamed from below after the rain, etc. Earlier soldiers also said the stones were soggy.

"It was hot in here."

Weishardt responds to the chatter as he lights a scattered fire and heats up 55 levels further.

The offense would have been even harder to navigate if the black devil didn't need oxygen.

(if --)

One hypothesis builds up behind Nielenberg's brain.

(What if it's a hierarchy where demons don't need oxygen to live?

Will the change of air occur if the oxygen runs out?

(If this hierarchy is being heated from below?

Kneelenberg hands on crouching ground. Its eyes open wide.

Just then. I guess the last black demon died, the earth just next to the staircase leading to the 54th (upper) hierarchy diminished and became much more exuberant.

The ground was unnaturally hot and conveyed to Nielenberg the pressure of the atmosphere that was slightly trembling and gushing.

"Run away!"

Was Nielenberg quick to scream, or did the stairs leading to the 56 tiers open fast?

High-temperature gases that conceived the odor blew up from 56 levels, turning the perimeter of the hierarchical staircase into a dead place.
