Chapter 847 – Day 98 – Burning Embers
Magic was introduced to humans through demons a long time ago.
There is no way Arisa Ekati, who is called a genius wizard, does not know that fact.
“Oh my god. Is this really the Demon World, Pandemonium? I thought it was a ridiculous place when I heard the story from you…”
“Look. I’m not just making up words that don’t exist, am I?”
“I’ve never thought of it that way before? But this is, my God. It’s a landscape and civilization that goes beyond my knowledge.”
After spending the night showering Ceres and Eve with her love, as soon as the sun rose the next day, she invited Arisa to Pandemonium as she had talked about last night.
“What do you think? Eve said that no matter how good you are and how much help you have from Amilias, it is impossible to create all the magic tools that can handle the blessings of the old gods in two days.”
“I thought it was impossible even in the demon world, but my God. This is a variable I never thought about?”
Arisa had a blank expression, as if she were a country girl coming to Holympia for the first time, and was busy looking at every corner of the demon world that was emitting bright light.
“Oh my god, what did that demon do now? The door opened on its own, right? What is that? What are those things you’re carrying in your hands?”
Haha, you look like a child excited to discover another world, Arisa.”
“Of course, this is something that feels amazing, right? Even if I tell the many wizards in the Magic Tower what I saw and felt, they will all think it’s a lie. This is ridiculous!”
Holding her cheeks with both hands and rubbing them vigorously, Arisa put her feet out on the path filled with black stones and quickly pulled them out.
─Wheeeee!
“Oh my god! What is that? A carriage driven by magic stones? That’s ridiculous! It has four wheels but no horses, so how can it move like that? The power of magic stones is too energy efficient to move such a lump of iron. .!”
“Come on! Come on! Arisa! Let’s spend some time researching the civilization of the Demon World later!”
The princess smiled and held the hand of Arisa, who was busy looking around, and headed towards the pure white palace where Eve and Ceres were waiting.
“I don’t know how many times I’ve been surprised when I come here, but at least this palace…”
“Don’t you feel a little nostalgic?”
“That’s right. It’s a scene I can understand somewhat well. Or, to be honest…”
The princess greets the saluting Helson with her hand and enters the white palace carrying Arisa.
“I thought you were saying that demons are just like us humans because of your good personality.”
Haha, did you think it was an outright lie? It hurts a little.”
“I didn’t sing the Anatomy song for nothing. But after seeing the buildings and culture here, I really started to think they were the same.”
As she walked down the hallway, Arisa wore a pure white dress and was soon able to meet Eve Terra, who was waiting for her.
Surprisingly, the laboratory, which was filled with the remains of the old gods, had taken on a completely different appearance.
“There are a lot of people wearing pure white clothes. What are they all doing?”
“Aren’t beings who study magic called wizards? It seems that demons have a thing called science, and there are beings called scientists who study it.”
“There are more than 20 such scientists standing behind Eve Terra right now, right?”
Arisa whispered to the princess in a very low voice with a nervous expression.
“Don’t be nervous.”
“How can I not be nervous! Magic was passed down to humans by demon gods. And that demon god was created by the Great Mother! Eve Terra, the woman standing over there?”
Arisa, who was sweating, touched her brown hair.
“I might be throwing a funny party in front of someone who created the field I think is the best from the roots.”
“Don’t say things like that, Arisa. Of all the magicians I know, you have the most humanity and are the wisest and most genius.”
“Ugh, I guess I’ll have to look forward to the day when Venus doesn’t praise me like that…”
Arisa touched her tied hair and approached Eve Terra very calmly.
“The Great Mother of the Demon World. You are Eve Terra, right? Nice to meet you. My name is Arisa Hecati, the owner of the Demon Tower. Please take care of me.”
Arisa calmly held out her hand.
Eve Thera looked at the hand with her very intense emotions.
“A wizard…”
Eve, who let out her many emotions, gently took her outstretched hand and shook it.
“I guess they are specialists when it comes to magic used on the surface. Nice to meet you. My name is Eve Terra, the Nectar of Pandemonium and their mother. Since you are not a Nectar, you can feel free to call me Eve.”
“You can’t do that, Mr. Eve. You are a high person.”
Fortunately, Arisa and Eve were communicating properly.
‘Phew! What a relief! I was worried that Eve would make fun of Arisa, calling her a primitive or something!”
The princess, who repeatedly squeezed her hand and smiled, could barely smile sincerely.
“Then shall we get straight to the point, Mr. Eve?”
“It’s nice that the story is fast. We have decided to join forces to help Venus Holympia, so let’s get down to business rather than trying to establish manners and etiquette that are still difficult to understand.”
The two had a strangely fitting relationship.
“A magic tool that can handle the blessings of the old gods… I haven’t given Venus a good name so far, but I decided to call it ‘Arcana’.”
Arisa smiled and showed off the magic tool she wore on her left arm, Arcana.
The Arcana, made of metal with a mysterious color, was in the form of a bracelet that perfectly protected her wrist.
“With the Arcana, you can truly change the blessings of the Old Gods at will. For example…”
Arisa let out a deep breath and stretched out her hand, looking at a bottle of clear water nearby.
“Haaap…!”
As soon as Arcana let out a brief burst of blue light, the water in her bottle sloshed loudly and flew into Arisa’s palm. Arisa showed it by jumping in the air, letting it bubble up inside the bottle, then turning it into her steam and then turning it into her hard ice.
“There are parts of the power of the old gods that are difficult to interpret scientifically.”
Eve spoke briefly and extended her hand to Arisa.
“Would you like to show me some arcana?”
“Of course. Oh, and Venus, I didn’t tell you either, but basically, Arcana can only handle one blessing. The Arcana you, a member of the royal family, will wear can handle the blessings of all gods.”
“Are you saying that only mine is special?”
“It can’t be helped. If there’s anyone who can deal a fatal blow to Emperor Jupiter, it’s only you.”
It’s never a bad thing to be prepared for a last resort.
The princess thought for a moment and then nodded.
Meanwhile, Eve Terra, who had been checking the arcana for a while, began to applaud lightly.
“It’s amazing. This… I never thought there was a technology on the surface that could make bracelets with such neat detail.”
“What, I thought you could just roughly hit it with a big hammer?”
“I imagined a way to grind a stone.”
Eve laughed and joked, and Arisa unexpectedly burst into laughter.
“It’s a method that shows the design so perfectly and accurately… There’s no need for us to study this in depth.”
“Oh, then you can make a lot right away?”
“Ah, of course, I can see parts and methods that are on a strange border between the scientific and magical parts, but I think that can be easily solved if Arisa and I collaborate.”
“Could you get help from someone who grinds stones and makes jewelry, Mr. Eve?”
“You should be able to do anything for the person you love.”
Arisa, who immediately understood what kind of person Eve was, nodded with a very satisfied smile.
“I guess I’ll have to stay here and finish creating the Arcana. Is that okay, Venus?”
“Haha, of course there is no problem. Don’t worry!”
The princess burst out laughing cheerfully.
“There are about two days left until the fateful day, right? Don’t worry, you can definitely finish mass-producing Arcana before then.”
Eve, overflowing with trust, was busy finishing her sentence when she lifted Arcana and waved her hand.
“Friday! Scan the Arcana and create a blueprint right away! Then, divide into Team A and Team B as you categorized earlier, design an efficient production process, and submit it to me. I’ll give you 3 hours, that’s enough, right? It’s something that came from the surface. .”
“Yes! That is enough, Great Mother!”
“Great Mother!”
Eve, smiling at the loud voices of her people, gently waved her fingers, grabbed her princess’s waist, and kissed her on the cheek.
“I plan to work from now on, so it’s okay for our princess to work as well.”
“You put a lot of force into your words because it was in front of Arisa, right?”
“Ha, when doing business, you have to be in business mode, right? It’s unprofessional to speak informally to someone you love. And…”
Eve gave a light wink.
“The creation of the Arcana now is a collaboration between the Great Mother of Pandemonium, the owner of the Tower of Magic, and the Crown Princess of the Empire Where the Sun Never Sets.”
Haha, I know what you mean, so don’t worry and get to work, Eve.”
Eve, with a satisfied expression on her face, winked once more and then walked over to the dozens of mechanical arms that came down from the ceiling and began examining the Arcana.
“The more I look at the technology of the Demon World, the more absurd it becomes.”
“Still, I’m glad you didn’t scream that it was weird.”
“What are you talking about? I’m a genius wizard, right? And the power of witches, which I couldn’t understand just a few days ago, I can now understand thanks to a princess somewhere.”
Arisa smiled.
“After that experience, I came to know something. There is nothing in this world that I cannot understand. Although there may be forms that I did not expect.”
“Haha, that’s a good thing.”
Now all we have to do is wait for the Arcana to be completed. The princess took her time and reached out to Arisa’s body.
“Oh, by the way, didn’t you hear from Mr. Ceres?”
“… What do you mean?”
“The world is in chaos right now? Hedone is doing his best to mediate, but it is limited. The fuse has already been lit.”
The princess swallowed her saliva and held Arisa’s waist tightly.
She didn’t want to ask, but she intended to take responsibility for fueling the rebellion.
“Is this Abama’s job?”
“Yes, the great and omnipotent Emperor Jupiter smelled it.”
