"I don't mind trying... how do you do that?

"This is how we do it."

That's what Rails said, only one drop of potion drooling over the wound.

Then... the moment the potion touched him, the little scratch on his fingertips disappeared without a trace.

Well, naturally.

However under-performing the potion may be, it can be healed by some cuts cut on paper.

Otherwise, there's no point in using potions.

That's supposed to be...

"Ki...... the wound is gone!? What is this medicine?

When he saw the wound disappearing fingertips, Rails exaggerated his eyes black and white.

It's as if it's amazing how the wound disappeared in the potion.

It may have been surprising for a new alchemist to be able to make a decent potion... but don't feel bothered when the boulders exaggerate so much.

"What is this medicine... that's usually what potions are for...?

"No, it usually doesn't work this well. It's a little painful, enough to heal the wound faster.... This medicine could be amazing...!

On this level, awesome potion......?

No, no matter how much architecture and other technologies have gone into a declining world, it won't be in boulders.

So, what's the reason for this surprise?

Think about it... I figured out why.

Perhaps this overreaction is to make the new alchemist brave.

Even if you practice the same alchemy, it's faster to practice with confidence.

So I'm also convinced by this reaction if I think that I praised the potion I made in order to build confidence in the newbie...

Maybe it was on purpose that Rails cut his hand off with paper.

I didn't know it would stand the pain for a rookie, strain his body and be a drug experimental bench... the opposite of some branch supervisor.

For example, forcibly denying Rails' reaction would be a waste of generosity.

You're a big man here, and you should be praised.

I bowed my head to Rails' professionalism in my heart.

"Now will you be allowed to register for the guild?

"Absolutely. I'll do the exact measurement of the effect of the medicine later... see how it was done earlier, and no one will admit it"

Saying so, Rails takes one card out of the guild's counter.

The card was made of iron and engraved with the letter 'G' next to my name.

"Now from today on, Marzen is an adventurer belonging to the Alchemy Alliance. Show this guild card at the Labyrinth City Request Center and you'll get the request."

"Thanks.... no money to register for the Alchemy Guild?

"Looks like the other guilds are going to take the registration fee, but the Alchemy guilds aren't going to take the registration fee, because I didn't take it until five years ago, but the Apprenticeship Alchemist is poor. If I take the registration fee, it's pathetic, so I pay instead, and my grandfathers give me money."

I see.

Thanks to the seniors, I can sign up for the guild for free.

For me to just wake up from sleep and have no sentence, that's a thankful story.

"Thanks, I'll try to get a request soon"

"Oh! Try not to push me! I don't care how many battles you make, if you die, it's over!

That's what Rails sent me out.

Well...... in the meantime, suppose I go get a request?

It's about time I went to bed, but I don't even have the money to take an inn right now.

Then a few minutes later.

I was at the request center, near the entrance to the labyrinth.

A wide variety of requisitions were affixed to the wall of the requisition centre.

The adventurers take it off the wall and line it up to the window.

I know how to order...

"I don't know which one to choose..."

Anyway, I don't know anything about labyrinth cities.

If the contact seems free, I can ask, but unfortunately, the contact has a long line of snakes.

If you ask a long question in such a place, the alchemist will be blamed regardless.

The request is written with the details and hierarchy of the request.

For the first time, there would be no problem if you chose a request on one level.

If the reward is low among them, the difficulty should be low.

… so do you choose from requests where the reward is low for now?

I can't help but suddenly get a high-difficulty request before I know what's going on in the labyrinth.

Let's not rush this place.

Anyway, I'm eighteen now, and I have plenty of time.

"... this is it"

That's what I said, and I got two requisitions that said 'Request Location: Labyrinth Level 1'.

"500 Girth a Bite Rabbit Meat Procurement" and "500 Girth a Square Game Meat Procurement".

They say the lodging in the labyrinth city can be stayed for about 5,000 geese, so hunting about 10 combined is a good calculation.

Two requisitions were removed from the wall, and I lined up in the requisition desk.

The request desk had a line of nearly thirty people.

It's already midnight, but we're all very enthusiastic.

I thought so for a moment... but soon, I realized why.

(Right, the labyrinth doesn't have day and night...)

Turner told me that something called the Labyrinth is underground.

Naturally, the sun's rays and such will not arrive.

Thanks to the glow of the labyrinth walls, they're bright there inside... but still there shouldn't be any day or night.

That's why it doesn't make much sense for adventurers diving long into the labyrinth, day or night.

As we reflect on that, the row keeps moving forward.

Apparently, the person at the requisition desk is working fast.

Soon, my turn came.

"Next. Go ahead -"

That's what they call me. I submit two requisitions and a guild card together.

The receptionist confirms it, presses the order mark and gives it to me.

"Next, go ahead -"

When I received the requisition and the card, the receptionist immediately called the next adventurer.

Amazing speed.

I was wondering if they would say bad things just because I'm an alchemist here, but apparently I didn't have time for that.

With that in mind, I headed to the labyrinth entrance.
