There is nothing impossible in advanced alchemy. -Universal skill to match the other world-

Then a few days later.

When I woke up in the morning, another letter was placed with herbicidal cookies.

"Also, an assassination herald...?

I open the letter with that twinkle.

Inside, again, it was like a warning sentence.

――――――――――――――――――――

I was surprised to hear you suddenly took a meal in a labyrinth city.

But the poison really doesn't work, does it?

I'm glad you're alive.

But the assassin hasn't given up yet.

Watch out for traps.

Be especially careful with the labyrinth.

――――――――――――――――――――

Hmmm......

Apparently, whoever sent this letter knows that it doesn't poison me.

Knowing that you planted poison doesn't seem wrong with insiders.

In today's world, where alchemy is obsolete, there may not be so many who know that poison does not work for alchemists.

Thinking about it...... do you know who's giving me this letter?

The person who told me the poison wouldn't work should be about turnia......

... but you have no certainty.

If it was Tania who was writing to me, it wouldn't change what I had to do.

One is not to run away.

It's bad for someone who's giving me a warning, but maybe the person trying to assassinate me isn't convenient when I'm in a labyrinth city.

If so, running away is like succumbing to an enemy.

He's a broken alchemist, like giving in to someone who's trying to assassinate me with poison.

Running away is unlikely.

The other is gathering information.

Fortunately, I have a good lead on this.

The letter someone gave me said, 'Be especially careful of the labyrinth'.

I mean, the next most likely target for assassination is the labyrinth, I guess.

If you're in the labyrinth, it's easy to hide even if you kill an assassin.

You can make a confession with alchemy, or if you dare show up in front of an assassin and return it, you'll get a lot of information.

Unfortunately, it doesn't even say where they will be assassinated in the labyrinth...... around it, let's think after we get into the labyrinth.

If you're willing to kill me, you'll try to lead me to someone with a trap somehow.

While I was thinking about it, I headed towards the labyrinth.

"Oh, isn't that Dr. Marzen? Where are you going?

As I walked down the road to the labyrinth, that's how Rails talked to me.

There have been a lot of people here in the Alchemy Guild who call me Dr. Marzen lately.

As a result of spreading the new method of potion, the perception of teacher seems to have settled.

"I've been making potions for a while, so I thought I'd go to the labyrinth."

That's what I said, show the special space bag.

I haven't been to the labyrinth lately because I've been making potions in alarm of assassinations.

When you're about to be assassinated, there's a high-performance potion, because the ease of dealing with it changes completely.

I'm not too alert, but I'm not too alert.

This would be the right attitude.

"Labyrinth... is that what you're looking for in the crust of Docsenzan?

"... doxenzan? What happened all of a sudden?

Docsenzan is a demon like Armadillo with hard shells and nails.

Shells and nails contain powerful poisons, but when successfully processed, they can be very useful ingredients for medicines.

Especially since the crust has a wide range of uses anyway, so much so that no matter how much it is, it is not enough.

If that doxenzane is in the labyrinth, it's worth picking it up.

But...... I wonder why Rails has now come up with the topic of Docsenzan.

Would I have looked that much like I wanted a doxenzane?

"There are rumors that I saw some doxenzans on the eight layers of the dirt labyrinth... didn't you hear that?

"That's not why... are you sure about the rumors?

"No, you can't be honest with me. There were also some guys I knew who went to get them, but only one achievement.... The adventurer who went in for Docsenzan gave up, didn't he?

I see.

Does it feel like because of the rumors, they quickly got rid of it...

But alchemy can also be used to find demons efficiently.

If you go now and do a proper research, there could be one or two.

Even in just that amount, Docsenzan deserves to go get it.

"Thanks for the info. I might still be there, so I'm gonna go check it out."

"Oh. With Dr. Marzen's strength, I don't think there's a problem with eight levels... but be careful."

Careful...?

Hard to imagine it was Rails who gave me that letter...... for once, you want to give it a try?.

"Careful, is that an assassination?

"Assassination... that's a pretty noisy story. Well, maybe you should watch out for bandits. The potion thing, it could mean that Marzen has money."

Yeah. That's even a normal answer.

There is no atmosphere where the magic reaction has shaken or surprised me.

Rayles sees that he doesn't know about the assassination, and he doesn't seem to be mistaken first.

"Okay. Thanks."

That said, I moved on to the labyrinth.
