Chapter 12 (1/2)
The Very Antithetical Alchemist (1)
After Ian was declared as an ‘Eternal Guest’ of the Mogrian house, the great landlord ied a convoy for Ian
“I aht people to escort him”
There were around a total of twenty people in the squad, including the veteran knight ‘Eric’, ent to the valley with Ian, and ‘Luca’, who called hi hi errands
“That’s what I thought”
The soldier Luca replied to the veteran knight
Both of the hell that Ian made at the valley
The landlord commanded them to protect him?
A randoh, if it saw this situation
“Perhaps, we are the ones who are being guarded…”
“I agree”
The convoy was formed with twenty people,
By following Ian, they were heading to the end of the province, Lloyd village
He was going to ested
“What do you think about it?”
Luca asked Ian alking in front of him
Usually, people got scared when confronting es
Especially, if they saw the scene at the valley
But this soldier, Luca, he didn’t seem to be scared of Ian,
Whether he confronted knights or uy
‘Does he dare to risk his life?’
As Ian had seen him, he could make a conclusion
Soon, this soldier would be rebuked by nobles or es with bad tempers
“Is it still far froe?”
“Yeah? Ah, ill arrive there soon It’s bit far, yeah?”
Instead of answering, Ian changed the topic by giving him a question
As Ian intended, it seeot about the question he asked previously
However, Luca felt different
‘Hwoo! It makes me so nervous, indeed’
By Ian’s question, Luca calmed himself
Honestly, he was as afraid of Ian as the others
Poas like a ic to nobles
Hoould he dare confront such a person easily
Further
‘But I have to endure This is a chance The only chance that is allowed to me’
The reason that encouraged him to dare to risk his life, it was an ‘interview’
An interview for his life goal!
‘When would I have a chance to have a conversation with a e?’
The dream he told his comrades about whenever he had time
Writing a heroic chronicle after retirement!
Everyone laughed at his goal, but Luca was serious
‘The Mage and The Spearmaster will be a masterpiece!’
The power of the dreae his life
He used to always drink whenever he got a day off
Now, he learned writing skills whenever he had time
The hich was only spent on alcohol, was now spent to buy paper, books and ink
‘Cheer up! I can do it! No hesitation! Go Go Go!’
With a sly
Now the squads were close to the village
“You will see the village when you climb over that hill”
The veteran knight Eric said
It was a very far away village, as though someone picked it up and put it away from the province
He had only heard of it in his former life, but had never visited there
‘The alchemist Ledio, was it?’
The alchee
According to the ather some specific herb
The herb that only grew in north land, Ian could list few herbs like that
‘Specifically, the herb that can’t be found in other places would be…’
There was only one herb like that
The herb with a body that was too frail to be transported
The herb with sensitive characteristics that couldn’t be cultivated as well
‘The flower of Randor’
It was a rare herb,
But there was no known effect of it
It was questionable if it should even be called as a herb
‘Maybe he is not an ordinary alchemist’
He ather such a herb
Perhaps two possibilities are there
He knew its usage, or was just curious about it
‘Ee shall see’
After he clie
It was the Lloyd village
“Hmm?”
The village was in trouble
Village people were forced to gather at the center, and there werethe people with knives
Even the soldiers ere stationed there were killed
Surung!
The veteran knight Eric drew his sword
These men were thieves
“Take these youngsters only, we better go back now”
“What about these chicks?”
“Look at their faces you fool Would anyone buy them?”
A cunning voice
It was the conversation between thieves ere co
“Hmm, but what a waste”
“Let’s sell these youngsters and quickly move to Coldwood”
“Hehe! Yeah, that area has pretty chicks”
There were five stationed soldiers and twelve boys ould be able to fight
However, there were twenty one thieves
It was a battle that they couldn’t win, compared to the number and combat experience of thieves
