Chapter 401 – How to Become an Alchemist
“How is it?”
“I think I’m in good shape…”
Elaine puts on a devastated expression at drawing an unbelievable conclusion. For half a day, she and Seong-il coveted each other’s private parts.
“Hmm… I guess it has something to do with suppressed desire.”
“Ha…”
Elaine sighed naturally in Seongil’s chest on the bed. She was in a situation where her psychological barrier had almost collapsed because she had done all sorts of lewd things with her holy days for half a day.
“…Will you keep it a secret?”
“Then.”
“Whoa…”
Elaine covered the blanket and hugged his chest, as if she was relieved by Seongil’s words. She doesn’t show any shyness, perhaps because she thinks she’s done her ball shopping.
***
‘Huh? Are you still sleeping?’
Elaine, who is still asleep, probably due to a violent affair (?) With the holy day. Seong-il sees it, and she moves into the shower.
“Whoa…”
A refreshing mind when you leave your body in cool water.
‘Hmm… I guess I can break down the psychological barrier naturally while training Elaine in this way. If you use the aphrodisiac consistently, it will only be a matter of time before you eat it. Well… I might be able to pick it up right now, but it’s not that urgent…’
In fact, Seong-il realized that the teaching assistant was over. As he exits the shower, an idea comes to his mind.
“Ah… Come to think of it…”
Focusing on teaching assistants, I forgot one thought. He opens his inventory and takes out the 『Branch of the World Tree』.
‘I wonder if I can learn something if I show this?’
Thinking so, Seong-il takes the cane and moves into Elaine’s bedroom.
“Ugh…”
“Are you awake?”
“Huh…”
Elaine looked blank as if she had slept soundly. Despite the disheveled appearance, Seong-il feels a slight flutter in her heart at her beautiful appearance.
“Ah!”
Then, as if she remembered her own figure, she quickly covered her body with a blanket over her. She approaches Elaine on her holy day without hesitation and settles down next to her.
“Why? Again…?”
Elaine looked at him with a slightly wary look. However, she could feel the strange anticipation in her eyes.
“What are you talking about? I just watched it because I was curious to see if you were okay.”
“…The condition is the best. Are you okay?”
“Puhahaha.”
When asked about her seongil, Elaine puts on a slightly indignant expression.
“Kuh-kuh… Then it’s good, would you like to take a look at this?”
“Huh…?”
Elaine makes a puzzled expression when she suddenly takes out a staff that her seongil has not previously brought.
“…What is that?”
At first glance, it looks like a clunky wooden staff, but Elaine doesn’t miss the fact that the staff has strange powers.
‘As expected, I feel something.’
Elaine started stroking the branch of the world tree with a slightly dazed expression. She clutches at her branch as if possessed and examines it intently.
“This feeling… What the hell? It doesn’t look like an ordinary wand, does it?”
“This is something called the ‘Branch of the World Tree’.”
In this way, Seong-il explains to Elaine the origin of the staff and the process of obtaining the item. After hearing all of her story, Elaine examines her wand with a look of great surprise.
“Wow… According to you, this staff is a sapling left by the now-dead world tree?”
“Yes.”
“Wait… That’s great!!”
“By any chance, do you feel anything when you look at the wand?”
“Huh? All of a sudden?”
Elaine is puzzled when Seong-il suddenly asks her about the staff.
“Ah, to be honest, I don’t feel anything in particular. I wonder if you, a mage with a different training system from me, can feel something.”
“Oh, really? Let’s see…”
Elaine doesn’t really argue with Seongil’s words because there are definitely cases where the sensitivity is different due to different abilities.
“Swimming…”
Like that, Elaine starts touching the “Branches of the World Tree” As if possessed.
“This… Cane…”
“…Can you feel it?!”
As much as she knows the correlation between Elaine and her wand, she had high expectations of her from her genie. Indeed, when her Elaine seems to have sensed something of her, he questions her in her slightly agitated spirit.
“How can I say… Very… Deficient? That feeling?”
“…Deficient? What?”
“Well…? It’s just… How to say… Very hungry…? I can feel it?”
“Are you hungry?”
“Yeah… I feel like I’m really having a hard time because I’m lacking something essential…”
‘No way, it should have been planted in the ground, but was it because it was pulled out?’
Elaine’s words, just in case, bring her a potted plant from her mansion on her holy day.
“…?”
Elaine is puzzled by Seongil’s sudden behavior. To her, instead of answering her holy day, she accepts her cane and then inserts her cane into her flower pot.
“How is it? How do you feel?”
“…They’re the same? I don’t think it’s a deficiency of nutrients in the land.”
“Hmm…”
“Then what is lacking?”
Seong-il mutters her doubts while talking to Elaine about her. At the same time, he senses that Professor Thorgrim’s hypothesis is correct through her words.
“Well… It’s wanting something strong, but it’s like a spirit… Kuh!!”
Elaine grabs her head to see if her headache is getting worse than grasping the power flowing from her staff. At the same time, the magical energy boiling from her body begins to spread all over her.
‘Resonance of lineage!!!’
Elaine’s unique magic response. Seong-il sees her reaction and realizes that the staff has strong spirit power.
‘Elaine, to be exact, the Yves family is famous for having a strong affinity with spirits. The reaction Elaine is showing now is a situation where the power of the spirit and the power of the lineage are resonating.’
In a normal situation, after resonance, she would have obtained information or benefited from the power of lineage, but the problem was that Elaine had not yet awakened the power of lineage, so she suffered greatly from resonance, let alone benefits. Make an appearance
Swoop.
Because of this, Seong-il retrieved the staff from Elaine, who was having a hard time connecting the branches of the World Tree with the spirit. He takes a distraught Elaine and puts her in her bed.
“Get some rest.”
“Kuh… Uh… Uhh, why am I doing this?”
“…Isn’t that a side effect of training? Anyway, I’ll go.”
“Yes…”
‘Training is probably over, I’ll have to get the [Phoenix Feather] From the upcoming exam and awaken the power of the lineage.’
***
“Whoa…”
A holy day from the villa of the Yvrose family. As soon as he steps out, he settles down in a secluded place and casts Inner Plane.
“First of all… I’ve turned off all the urgent fires. Shall we go see Pirina?”
Sung-il arrives at the Pineapple House and opens the door. Then, another brown-haired beauty, Erica, appears in front of him.
“Are you here?”
“Yeah. Is everything okay?”
“What… Is it always the same? Wake up in the morning, make potions… Research new recipes… By the way, what’s going on? Did you run out of potions?”
“What… I’m sorry…”
So Seong-il begins to tell Erisha what happened in the world of Mythology.
“What?! That happened?!”
“Oh, the number of devils. If it wasn’t for your potion, I might have really died?”
“Living is the best!!”
“Anyway… There’s still a little bit of potion left, so don’t make it too quickly… Let’s go on a vacation!!”
“To…?”
Erica puts on a bewildered expression at the sudden holiday of the holy day. Her holy day tells her the story of Pirina.
“Wow!! Madam’s ability is amazing? I know it’s been less than a month since she went to the southern country, but how can she find a base already?”
“Sure. Let’s go anyway! Let’s go on vacation!!”
“Ohhh!! I want to go!! I want to go!!”
“Huh? Vacation?!”
Vivian jumps out like a zombie at the sound of ‘vacation’ that comes out of Seongil’s mouth. Perhaps she has suffered from frequent overtime work, she pops out of the lab with dark circles and a pale appearance.
“Uh… Hello?”
“De… Finally…!! Shh… Are you resting?!”
Vivian’s desperate expression. Seong-il nodded his head instead of answering, expressing his agreement.
“Huh…”
‘…Cry!?’
It sounds like you’ve had a very hard life. Her holy day approaches her unwittingly and pats her on the shoulder.
“Now let’s go to the southern country and rest in peace.”
“Rejoice!!!”
Vivian is delighted at Sungil’s words that she is going to the southern country, one of the most glamorous tourist destinations on the continent.
‘Hmm… Shall we take all the kids with us at this point? I really like it.’
I don’t think it would be bad if I took not only Erica and Vivian, but also characters from other worlds such as Charlotte, Yuna, and Ophelia.
“Now let’s all go out to play!!”
“Oh oh!!”
“…But before that.”
“Huh?”
“Could it be possible to make this potion?”
“Ah~ it’s a vacation!!”
“Don’t do that, just a few…”
Seongil knew of a hidden event that could only be cleared in southern countries. Because of this, he decides to break the event while going to the southern country this time.
“Haa… I can’t help it…”
‘Anyway, I can’t take Eunwol with me. I’m sorry…’
Apparently, since Eun-wol was a person who was summoned on the condition of being locked in the Pineapple House, there was a blind spot that if she moved to another world, she would be canceled.
‘I’m sorry… I think I’ll be disappointed, but what should I do…’
Eun-wol is sure to put on a sullen expression. Therefore, Seong-il first tells the other women about the vacation and decides to deal with it at the end.
“Really!?”
“Wow!!”
As expected, Charlotte and Yuna are happy, and even Ophelia trains hard under them.
“Hmm… What about Lady Eunwol?”
“Oh, he’s…”
To Elisia’s question, who knows Eun-wol’s circumstances, Seong-il answers her circumstances obediently.
“Hmm… Then, I won’t just go on vacation?”
“Hehe?! Are you okay…?!”
“Yes! Someone has to become Lady Eunwol’s companion. That’s it…”
Elysia naturally looked toward the sofa where Eun-wol lived. There were half-eaten snacks and t-shirts that had been taken off.
“…Lady Eunwol wouldn’t be able to last a day here without my help?”
“…Please.”
After arranging the personnel, Seong-il and his women move to the southern country through the portal of the Pineapple House.
“Kek!!”
“Are you okay?!”
However, for some reason, Seong-il tried to move to the residence where Pirina registered, but could not enter the door.
He bumps into a hard wall, caresses his sore face, and mumbles.
“What?! Was there something wrong with the residence registration!?”
Weeing!!
“…?”
Seongil’s phone rings out of nowhere. He examines the contents with a puzzled expression.
『How to Become an Alchemist, DLC South Korea』
– If you want to enter the area, you need to purchase DLC.
“No fuck?!”
The content of the random message.
‘No… Southern Korea is a real game DLC area… But this is implemented like this!?’
Seong-il looks at his phone, swearing at the needlessly detailed implementation of Game Master.
“Such a piece of shit… You implemented something useless, how much?!”
『DLC requires 50% of the purchase price of the game. (5,000 points)』
‘Damn… I heard Pirina bought a villa for me… I can’t help but stop by!! And, the kids love it because it’s their first vacation, but if they don’t go…’
Since he had spent quite a bit of points buying the wand of the World Tree, Seong-il had few points left. Having only 20,000 points at best, he presses the purchase button with a tear and a mustard bite.
『How to Become an Alchemist DLC, Southern Country Completed!! The area is now unlocked. Have fun playing.”
“Fuck…”
Thinking that it is really fucked up, Seong-il moves his body to the portal gate again like that.
“Oh… Is it…?”
Fortunately, the portal entered normal after purchase. He confirms that a spacious room with a wooden floor has appeared before his eyes.
“Oh… Killing the scenery…?”
It is a house built on a fairly high hill, and you can see a wonderful beach through the windows between the white walls.
A beautiful scene with an impressive white sand unique to Coral Beach. In addition, the color of the sea resembling the sky was making the beach many times more beautiful.
“Wow!! It’s such a nice sandy beach!!!”
Charlotte exclaims at the fantastic scene. Her clear, beautiful beaches seemed to have left a great impression on her, having always lived in the gloomy city of Wyndham, where her smog was.
“Hey… Is this the place?”
“Yeah. That’s right? Otherwise, there’s no way they’re connected to the portal.”
“Yes.”
Seong-il walks around the inside of the mansion with the women. The mansion seemed to be made up of a fairly large size.
“Hehe… There are roughly 6 or 7 rooms, right? You mean that Madam Piri and Madam manage this alone…?”
“No? Of course I manage it with the employee.”
“Oh! Pirina!”
Pirina listens to Erisha’s murmur and answers from her side. Upon her appearance, Seong-il shakes her hand with a happy expression.
“Whoops… Long time no see, Master.”
“Yeah! Wasn’t there a big deal?”
“Whoa… Not at all! I’m starting a small business with the money the owner entrusted me with.”
“…Business?”
At Pirina’s sudden words, Seong-il puts a puzzled expression on her face.
“Yes. I’m not trying to do what I always do, so it’s quite difficult… Ah! Have you eaten?”
“Huh? It’s still there, but…”
“Lulu! The guests are here, so would you like a drink?”
“Ah? I guess there are guests?”
A woman’s voice came out of nowhere at Pirina’s cry.
‘Oh… A cat-clan?’
In front of Seongil’s eyes, a cute brown haired beauty with cat ears and a tail appears.
