The Last Surviving Alchemist Wants to Live Quietly in the City

"So you're gonna open it?

"Yeah."

Before the sun went down, Mariela and Eurike were in front of the north tower door through the aisle on the third floor.

The view looking out the hallway window becomes more transparent as the sun sets and the color of the sky changes. It is at the same time that the vision becomes clear and the light is lost, so if you don't look at it, you don't know, but the water outside seems to erase its presence with the disappearance of the light, rather than reducing it to open the tub of bath and spill out the water.

Before Eurike completely fell out of the sun, the door knob opened the north tower door so the signs of water were as dense as in the mist.

"There are no stairs to go down..."

"The corridor to the west is broken?

This room also has fewer quantities than the third floor of the east tower, but some shelves and boxes. Jumping out of frightened boxes are brightly colored garments and ornaments that women seem to prefer. There seems to be some letters and cosmetics, but none of them are wet and useless.

"Mariella stay there. I'll be right back?

The door leading to the west corridor is broken and the door itself is removed. Eurike rushes out into the west corridor in a quick move.

When Mariella and Cu peer through the corridor to the west through the door, they can't really see ahead with the dimness and the water that lingers like fog, but the sunset before it sets from the beginning is plugged in.

(I don't really see it though........., is the hallway broken? What, that? What about Matsuaki?)

There were pine lights in the hallway that came by the time I came to the north tower, but there were no pine lights in this room or beyond. It was flooded. I guess the fire is out and natural, but the pine lights in the room so far keep burning even though they haven't added fuel. So I wouldn't have felt surprised if it was lit in a flooded place.

Mariella felt somehow uncomfortable that there was no pine light in this room and in the corridor leading west.

Gow.

Firehands rise from the edge of the hallway to blow Mariella's discomfort. Eurike must have used the flame bottle. The signs of the water that was drifting in the room were gone and it's already dark outside. There must have been a black demon.

Mariela gets on Ku's back so she can escape at any time.

A salamander moving over Raptor's head is illuminating the room instead of the light.

"Mariela, the hallway was no good. Every outer wall collapses on the way, and you can't go west from every floor? Plus, the black demons, they're springing up so many!

Eurike, who is back, then gets on Ku's back. Cu, who had the two of them on board, ran up the stairs and up to the fourth floor, which was the exterior corridor floor.

"Wow, here too!

The door on the west side was also broken, as was the room on the fourth floor leading to the exterior corridor. There are no pine lights in this room either, and the salamander lights are not enough to look all over the room. But if you look closely, the more black demons fill the hallway from the western door, the more imminent it is.

The whole thing is a black soft demon, so it's hard to tell if there's more than one small individual or a giant one, but it's a massive amount of black water pushing in anyway, and if you don't evacuate it soon, you're going to swallow it.

"Eurike, up there!?

"No! I don't know if it's safe up there!

"Well, but also demons on the south side!

Ku cleverly opened the door with his forefoot, and there were also many black demons in the outer passage back to the east tower. They must have come up through the walls, like on the west side, not enough to fill the aisles, but their numbers are increasing.

Escape to the upper level or turn back to the original east tower. There are demons in the turning back aisle, but the upper floors are dead. It's hard to imagine a buddy standing still in a place like this.

"Shit, I didn't think there was so much. I don't think you're in the Black Iron Transport Corps, asshole. I'll use the flame bottle to run through!

"Okay! I'm going to throw a flame bottle, so it's going to pop up the second the flame goes up!

When Mariella takes out the flame bottle, she lights it with a salamander and, no, throws it into the aisle. The flame bottle flies well, even if Mariella threw it, falling around a few steps out the door without hitting the indoor wall and raising the flame thinly wide. It looks like Mariella and the others escaped because the black demons were also frightened by the suddenly rising firehand.

Don't miss that gap, Eurike drives Ku. He lowers his head so that he can knock at the door for humans, and a low-profile cou pops out into the aisle like a bullet. At the time I put my strength on my legs trying to jump over the flames with the first step outside and with the aid as it was.

"! Go!?

A black demon, except the flames, must have climbed the walls of the tower. A black demon came down from the top of his head. The demon was bounced with the whip of Eurike, burned with the flame of the salamander and fell under the fence, but the movement stopped Raptor's leg, and more and more black demons fell from his head in the gap.

"Wow, do it!

"Hey, Mariela, I'm gonna calm down!

Eurike tries to whip down the ensuing demon, but Mariella can't move well in the way of trying to throw a flame bottle on Eurike's back. Salamander burns black demons, but he can't blow them away even if he has the power to burn them, so a burning mass falls over Mariella's head.

If the Mariellas hadn't ridden, Coo would be able to play it with his tail, but if he'd spin one in the air with Mariella on it, he'd blow it all the way to Mariella with the demons.

Rest in peace.

When the burning black demons tried to fall over the heads of the Mariellas.

"From Wind Edge. - Dear me, Deng! Place! Ugh!

Conveniently revealed in Mariella's pinch is arguably the privilege of the heroic, but it was Edgan, a double-swordsman, who blew the black demon with a blade of wind and jumped in front of the Mariellas from a little above the tower for some reason.

"Mr. Edgan!? From where?"

"There was a mottled asshole in here."

"Hey, Yurike, that's terrible!?

This treatment helped Mariella and Eurike pinch remarkably well.

Eurike's salt response smudges the heartbreaking Edgan's heart wound.

"They ran down the walls of the tower on their pinch. I can't cry."

Apparently Edgan came running down the wall from the heavenly window of the tower to this point.

They can be caught because there are still windows, jaws and aquatic plants everywhere, but they are almost close to falling. What a lightness. Is the boulder an A-ranker after all? Or is it just a monkey?

"I'm going to cry," Edgan said, tearing the black demon coming down into two with a blade of wind rolling out of his double sword, dropping it under the wall.

"Anyway, thank you? Edgan's coming with you?

Don't worry if Edgan is here for you. Though Mariella snorted at Yurike's suggestion.

"Uh, Muri? It starts now, Fever Time. So, I'm here with you, Fever, like?

"Hey, I don't know what you're talking about?

"It's okay, Eurike. I don't know either."

Edgan says something that doesn't make sense. As even Mariella sends a cold gaze that she wants this world to be the only strange one, Edgan pointed to the west with her sword in her grip as she turned her usual smile to the two of them: "Ma, is it faster to see?"

In the darkness with no moon or stars, the lights of the tower are gone, and the slight lights leaking from the corridors leading north and south do not reach the northern walls. Although nothing could be seen in Mariella's eyes except the darkness, Eurike's eyes, reinforced by magic, saw a massive collection of demons of good black examples around the northern barrier, which collapsed so that nearly half of them were ripped off.

And from the other side of the barrier, something darker and shapeless than darkness than night is about to push inside the barrier.

"To………? That……………."

"Wakaran."

Something even more unprofessional to the unprofessional demon.

I tell them that instincts are not good. Eurike flaunts them and Edgan looks at them with a crisp look.

Whether it's because of the daily deeds, Edgan, who makes you look like you're kidding, doesn't look serious, and Mariella, who sees nothing but darkness, doesn't convey a sense of crisis at all.

"That sucks. It's about to pour in darn, and when that black slime trimmer absorbs it worthlessly, the slime trimmer is a huge hustler. Fever. Fever."

"... I know Edgan is an idiot. So, why are you fever with me?

Edgan's explanation without any shards of urgency, but the situation is well understood. I just don't see why Edgan would stay here in danger. Edgan answered Eurike's question by laughing lightly.

"No, if we don't stop eating here or something, we're going to slime away, hustle too much and come in all the way into the building. So while I'm here, you guys go to the temple and find a way out."

"Mr. Edgan, that's..."

"I knew it was stupid..."

Were Mariela and the others able to escape to the safe tower last night or sleep safely in the middle of the night because Edgan was attracting the black demons here to fight for us?

Without even letting that out for a bite, Eurike turns his back on Edgan in an atmosphere like he's going out to a nightclub, "Well, that's it.

"Bring me this! Looks like they're vulnerable to fire!

and throw a spare flame bottle and a Halnonias demon-removing potion, a bag with emergency food, that was loaded in Raptor.

"Whoa, that's Thankful!

Upon receiving the thrown bag, Edgan ran to the west aisle where the black demons hissed each other.

"Mariela, I'm coming!

"Yeah!... wait a minute. What is it, this?

Mariela picked up a small stone rolling at her feet as she jumped off Coo's back. It is a small bead with a pattern of green and blue purple mixed with tea gold. I don't see that stone as much as a candy ball close to a true sphere, just one of them. When she pouched a bead that looked very much like a rolling stone around it, Mariella boarded Cu's back again.

"How about a flame bottle? I'll give you my share."

"All right!

"Gaw!"

Mariella throws a flame bottle full of strength, and Raptor proceeds over the burning flame. Whether the salamander is protecting us from the flames or the path of flames that keeps the black demons away is not a little hot for the Mariellas.

"Mariella's here, we're going all the way to the southeast tower!

"Yeah! There might be a staircase down there!

Thanks to Edgan attracting the demons, the more they went south, the more rare the number of demons, and Mariella and the others were able to reach the southeast tower before running out of the last flame bottle.

"This is the last time!

Shortly before knocking around the door of the southeast tower, Mariella throws her last flame bottle at the black demon that comes after her.

"Besides!" Wind. "

Mariella's thrown flame bottle hit the demon brilliantly with Eurike's magical support, and the demon hoisted up smoke and burned as the rubber shrunk.

This is the only one who came after me to the end, and I hear the other demons headed north. Mariela and Eurike approached the burning demon carcass as they stepped out of Raptor to confirm their surroundings.

"After all, the flames seem to work best?

"Yeah. You burn a lot. What, that?

A small stone rolls out of the burning cusp of a demon burned out at a rate like a piece of paper burning.

"This was just..."

Earlier pearls were green and blue-purple in tea gold, but this time they were patterned pearls with a mixture of Zhu in an ivory white area. The colors are just different and the size and shape close to the true sphere are very similar.

"I don't know, this………………"

Mariella gently slipped the stone into the porch with the tea gold stone as she removed it from the extinguishing flame.

Sometimes the light lights up in the dark when you look around the northeast tower where Edgan is.

"Flame bottle, he's using it for me…………"

"……… Edgan is a snubber."

It's about Edgan. I know they'll run away when it's really dangerous, but we can't waste time.

Mariella and the others searched for the stairs to the lower level and went down to the third floor.

"Wow, you're such a mess!

"Are you going to calm down strangely?

The third floor of the southeast tower, where Mariella woke up, was a room with no other way of expressing herself than a storage room, lined with boxes and shelves of various sizes.

"Um, the stairs down there are buried in plain sight."

"Arbitrary?

And a huge box hung with Dane where there would be a staircase downstairs. There are several large boxes in this room that exceed the height of the Mariellas, and there are piles of boxes of wine boxes around them. Because of the amount of material there is no leg treadmill, there is no place to push the box and move it, and even if you want to break it, the whip becomes entangled in other luggage when Eurike swings the whip up.

Moreover, the corridors leading north and west have also been blocked with luggage.

When Eurike came from the eastern tower, he said it didn't open, but I see it can't open with this. Still, there's the least baggage in front of the door leading to the east tower, and in a few hours we're going to be able to free the door.

"What's in it, an empty liquor bottle or something? After that, there is a potion bottle in the book. This one is... old clothes?

Unlike the tower to the east, there were large quantities of supplies placed here, like those used by the poor among the common people. There are a lot of things Mariela thinks she's seen.

The flame bottle has run out, so an empty bottle would be appreciated to make a new flame bottle. With all this, I think I'll be able to fire as much as I want.

"Come on, this big box, what are you made of? Donino can break it, but we can't.

The only thing that's going to open is the door to the eastern tower that we just had? Well, if we can get through here, it's easy to get to Edgan...

We're gonna stop at this tower when night breaks, and we're gonna give up here and go west?

Yeah, but I don't have a flame bottle.

Mariella, what are you gonna do?

I guess Eurike is willing to lead us through Edgan, who is putting up his body and collecting demons for us. Even if it seems solid, it is the youngest in the Black Iron Transport Corps. One year younger than Mariela, Eurike seems to be lost in judgment with a light nail bite.

We have to judge this place as bash as your sister.
