The Last Surviving Alchemist Wants to Live Quietly in the City

"You just have to make people feel like they're in danger to move"

If you are in a position to command people, you are being taught more than children.

The Schusenwald Border House, which has successfully used the mind-shaking sentiment of a person called 'The Sense of Crisis' for the control of labyrinth cities and surrounding territories, fully understands its effects. With regard to the dangers that may affect the whole of the empire: the Labyrinth, let us say that we have managed to establish a strong system of cooperation by successfully sharing information according to position and power.

People don't want change in a full environment. That might be called a person's instinct.

So a full human would be unlikely to take action in the unclear early stages of the situation, even if potions were commercially available in labyrinth cities and there was an increased likelihood that they could come and go with the Demon Forest. You must observe the situation, even though you can move at any time.

So now all the elephants who are visiting the labyrinth cities will be in a situation that has been hijacked for some reason. financially, mentally or for any other reason. Although each of the things that drive them will be different, even though the bridge named Potion was crossed, it's like a single wooden bridge on a cliff. There is not necessarily calm in what is driven up for any reason and tries to cross the bridge.

There are many people who want a bridge named Potion inside and outside the labyrinth city, but they don't know what to do with it, like they flock to the wooden bridge with us, and vice versa, even they can operate under a certain order.

Like featherworms swarming into night lights, the potion-seeking elephant still flies around Caroline Agwinas today. Many, many. Come on, we have to hurry. Before someone crosses the line.

In the morning, I left the Agwinas family mansion to go to the pest control dough workshop and then to the base of the Labyrinth Crusader Army. Return to the mansion in the evening. That's Caroline's daily behavior pattern, and the information is readily available if you stick around for a few days.

I guess the elephants targeting her are holding each other back, or working together to see how things are going. Even that, as with the pawn on the board, Weishardt waited now or now for the inconspicuous one to jump into the lights.

"I say! A manufacturing workshop for the Agwinas pest control dough has been raided"

The story brought to Weishardt was a predicted and unsurprising one for Weishardt, who had been watching the sky for a long time, although thunderbolting (mostly) from heavily entranced clouds was shocking.

However, Weishardt will later recall the moment this report arrived, as if it had been a lightning strike before the heavy rains.

"The situation."

"Ha. The Raiders are a threesome that looks like D-Rankers. Both the merchant and the four escort adventurers were captured. Depending on Deputy Marlow's report, he would be hired alone or at the end of the line. We are requesting an invitation from Mr. Raymond, the slaver, for questioning."

"Allow invitations. Move to interrogation."

Just a glance at the soldier leaving the room after completing the report, I can't even see the slightest upset with Weishardt's expression, which shifts his gaze to the paperwork at hand, on the same poker face as usual. I knew there were people wandering around the pest control dough workshop for a few days. I was hoping it would be time. It's a crackdown on the raid as planned. It doesn't deserve surprise. Mulroe is instructed to show off his powers and be flashy. Now for a while, let's be quiet around the workshop.

However, Weishardt's frequent break, which reached for a cup of tea, was interrupted shortly after he even enjoyed the fragrance.

"I say! Contact from the Agwinas family escort! Earlier a group of masked members raided the Agwinas family. He said he had already taken control and had them all tied up.

"Is the workshop raid positive? I don't mind if it's a little rough. Let them all throw up."

"Ha! Shall I treat Dr. Nielenberg?

"Do as you please."

Weishardt's look at throwing an ice gaze with the cup in his hand was no different than usual when he received the second report delivered to him to continue standing. However, his long-serving men felt his anger leaking slightly, suggesting a definitive means of interrogation and jumping out of the room with permission.

(Organized kidnapping is also predictable. We captured them all alive. The main culprit will be known soon)

Weishardt does not even mouth the tea, but puts every cup of dish straight back on the desk.

Caroline's cheapness is not included in her interactions with soldiers. Because we don't have to report it (,,,,,,) because we know it's safe.

Even so, Weishardt's heart is scratched hard . Even if Caroline was safe, the fact that someone was attacking her struck Weishardt as lightning slashed through the darkness and stuck her ears.

Weishardt ordered one of his squire to another flush when he glanced at the surface of the tea that cooled without even applying his mouth.

"Give me a glimpse."

"Ha!"

To a word of Weishardt, a squire who perceived where he was going runs to the place of destination to inform him of the Lord's visit. Heading there is on the grounds of the Labyrinth Crusaders' base. Built as a lodging and reception facility for high-ranking officials, it is the only building in the base with considerable character. The building, built near the main entrance of the base, is difficult to say that it is quiet with many rounds of soldiers, but safe enough to come from Weishardt's office for that matter.

Looks like the squire who went for the rash came back while Weishardt was lightly toning his hair. I hear butterflies and running down the hallway.

(As long as we don't have to rush that far. You've been reading too much emotion these days......)

Thinking of it that way, just when Weishardt stuck his collar, a squire jumped into the room without even knocking.

"Ho......, the welcome hotel, it was under attack!

"What the hell! Cal......, what about Master Caroline!?

"That's what you look like, I can't confirm......!!

Gatan! and wayshardt rushing out to the hotel faster than the chair collapses with a loud noise. On his face was the expression that those who had served him for a long time had never seen.

"Seal the base gates and check the intruders for you! And the gates of the labyrinth cities! Don't let anyone out of the city! Call back the intelligence forces diving into the labyrinth and let them hit the city search! Quickly interrogate the captured raiders! It's an intruder into the Labyrinth Crusader base! Never let them get away with it!

It was Leonhardt who heard the noise and gave early instructions to the Labyrinth Crusaders. My brother Weishardt, who tortured the captured raiders and just didn't get the information,

"Take it easy, it's not even like you. Calm down and think."

Leonhardt ordered the labyrinth city to lay a vigilant stance when he grabbed his lips and hit his brother's shoulder, who held his fist so tight that there was blood.

(Who..., who the hell!?

Weishardt recalls a human being who visited a labyrinth city after the potion was marketed.

A lot of adventurers below C-rank with a bad gala were coming to the labyrinth city these days. The reports of the troubles they have caused are also delivered to Weishardt every day.

Merchants have also visited a number of groups from Teito and neighboring towns, he said. Even when it comes to having an exorcism potion, it's still horrible. Merchants who followed many escorts to soak up the forest of demons.

Craftsmen with production skills, led by glassmakers, also accompanied private convoys and merchants, such as the Black Iron Transport Corps, into labyrinth cities.

Although the number of new residents is high and it is impossible to examine the predisposition of all of them, the investigation of the people wandering around the Agwinas family should have been complete. So today's raid on the workshop and the raid on the Agwinas mansion could be suppressed without any problems. In case, Caroline and her father, Royce, had also been hiding in a reception hotel on the base of the Labyrinth Crusaders for a few days.

(No way, a crime inside a labyrinth city?

In the first place, only a limited number of people know that Caroline is in the hotel. Caroline's replacement for Caroline runs from the Agwinas family to the workshop and to the base at the usual time, even for the few days that were tearing her away. Unless you're familiar with a labyrinth city, you can't be noticed.

(Should have sprinkled proper bait on the diminutive aristocrats in the labyrinth city. I also think it would be profitable to break away at this time......

Again, Robert who broke out of jail? But he can't even move because of the curse recoil he used to break out of prison. There is no point in grabbing my sister for avoiding the curse...)

Who the hell is it?

A suspect who is not confined to cluttered thinking.

There's no reason for Caroline to be found running around the labyrinth city.

But Caroline is a noble lady. The mere fact that a werewolf kidnapped you is a scratch on the name.

A soldier from the Labyrinth Crusaders has already run to the gates of the Labyrinth City to assemble personnel to solve the situation, but only a few know the facts of the abduction.

We have to rescue Caroline before any rumors can spread.

Even a second of the time that passes is bad. What brought to Weishardt in a hurry was a decree that would lead the place to further chaos.

"I say! Lord Kunz Malloch would like to see you from the Rock Wheel Autonomous Region. We have already left the territory and plan to arrive the day after tomorrow!

"You think it's Malloch? Why at this time......, no, now is the time."

The Rock Wheel Autonomous Region is a city of Dwarves, northwest of the labyrinth city, and is also the first city to be reached by labyrinth city yagoo merchants over rugged mountains.

A week from the Labyrinth City through a rugged mountain path in Yagoo, and three weeks from the Imperial City. Besides, a week is a despicable land where you have to take the impenetrable mountain path of a carriage. The reason the Dwarves gathered in such a place was a rich mineral vein. It does not produce rare metals such as orihalcon, but it can pick plenty of iron as well as misrills, and there are a wide variety of other metals and plenty of water. Besides, there aren't many demons around here either.

Because of the lean land, it was just the meat or imo of the beast when it came to food, a less entertaining place than a labyrinth city, a place where ordinary people would want to pop up in less than three days, but it was a comfortable place from the Dwarves that if they could drink and hit the iron, they would be quite happy.

The Rock Wheel Autonomous Region was also a place where those who had finally reached through long and rugged mountain paths could obtain cheap and famous swords and where they went up to the edge of the mouths of young and poor adventurers.

But it was all a long time ago that the Rock Wheel Autonomous Region was poor, and that it had cheap access to famous swords. It now flourishes as a region of excellent weapon protection equipment made of abundant minerals and rare demonic materials.

The prosperity of the Rock Wheel Autonomous Region will be due, for one thing, to yagoo merchants in periodically visited labyrinth cities. The materials of the labyrinth and the goods of the Imperial Capital were brought about by the Yagoo merchants, and Dwarves' lives improved so that they could be seen differently.

And one more thing. It was the historical lords of the Dwarf Half who ruled the Rock Wheel Autonomous Region and controlled the buying and selling of Dwarf crafts that determined the prosperity of the Rock Wheel Autonomous Region.

The species Dwarf has an artisanal temperament that delights in making things, as can be seen from living in such a despicable place. I want to make a masterpiece. I'm not interested in the failures that have been made along the way, so I twitch them and put them back into the raw materials, or if anyone wants them, they sell them in a bundle of three sentences.

Even if it's a good product that sells at a high price in Imperial Capital, it's people who don't even care about gold except for the price of alcohol. Of course it's not suitable for business.

It's not that I'm retarded no matter how artisanal temperament is, so when a merchant came from Teito, he took his failures in exchange for cheap liquor and wasn't unaware that he was selling them at a high price in Teito.

"Just a little more wine."

Even such trivial negotiations can't go well rounded up.

The Dwarves' sensibilities are unique and extremely pointy when it comes to making things, but they are not suitable for negotiation or commerce at all. Yes, if it's a raw dwarf.

It was one Dwarf half man who saved them like that. The man, who combined Dwarf's temperament with his sense of commerce, put the Dwarves together, traded the failures at the right price, and eventually became the lord of the Autonomous Community. Strangely enough, when Dwarf's blood diminished too much, he didn't think with the Dwarves, and when people's blood diminished too much, neither politics nor commerce went well, so the lords of the Rock Wheel Autonomous Region were not hereditary, and the most well-balanced had been chosen.

Its head is the current lord, Kunz Malloch, whose old age is one of the best men of all time.

It takes a week to come to the labyrinth city from the Rock Wheel Autonomous Region. The day after tomorrow, the arrival schedule that the rash made known. It means that we have already left without a rash.

The Rock Wheel Autonomous Region has been an encampment for Yagoo merchants for 200 years. If you don't have to know before you leave, there's no way Leonhardt or Weishardt won't see you by visiting the labyrinth city.

Why, at this time.

That must have been clear.

Yagoo merchants passing through the Rock Wheel Autonomous Region will be drastically reduced if they are able to pass through the Demon Forest in the Demon Removal Potion.

For the Dwarves of the Rock Wheel Autonomous Region, the start of commercialization of potions is an unprecedented situation.
