"Well, we've decided to work together, so let's talk about the future."

Only Rayce looked into Jinglong on that occasion. I meant to pass on the information that I could also pass on as Reis, but I'm not talking about speculations I'm not sure about.

Whatever the demon, it's also the first time I've seen a rare type of dragon called Jinglong. If there's any mistake, I'm in trouble. Sharing information should be a priority.

"Does Seth know anything about Jinglong?

"I don't know anything more than what I was talking about today. In the first place, Jinglong itself, even our nobles rarely see it."

"Heh, is that so"

"You're so beautiful, you don't have any body."

"I guess it would be a proper treatment if it were also a 'symbol' of the country. And, well, that's what I look like, but how's Reis?

Race quickly spotted the state of the crystalline dragon. If he is, he must be coming up with some means. Such an anticipating eye can be directed to Reis.

Sensitively perceiving it, Reyce shook her neck to the side with regret.

"Blah, blah. I haven't come up with a sure way. So are your masters, right?

"Yeah, well, I wish I could experiment, but I can't do that to a 'symbol' opponent."

"Oh, really..."

The current situation is tougher than I thought. The world is not so sweet. Reyce puts on his cheek wand and sighs in troubles.

"The question is, what is that metal? Even a crystalline dragon cannot be dissolved, or when it is dissolved, the metal will come back to normal..."

Perform a search under the conditions applicable to the knowledge present in the brain, but no response is returned. Of course, as an alchemist, I have studied the knowledge of metal-based materials.

When that happens, is the condition itself wrong or is it a metal that Reis doesn't know about? I don't know all the metals with Reis, so it's possible.

"No, wait..."

Reyce had just thought that far and felt uncomfortable. It's like you're narrowing your horizons, like you're overlooking something, that feeling.

Put your hands on your chin and deepen your thoughts for a while. Look now once and for all for the state of the crystalline dragon, the nature of capturing metal and the possibilities that may be possible in view of them.

- What conclusions have been drawn?

"... Seth, is there anywhere in the kingdom that deals with liquid metal?

"No, what do you think... maybe it has something to do with it?

"I think it's possible"

Behind words, Reyce has a confident grin. Lulimes was also nodding yeah and reacting positively to Reyce's opinion.

"It sure looks like it."

Reyce was thinking of limiting himself to solid metals with unsolicited assumptions. But nothing solid is the only metal.

Liquid metals that are prone to change shape are likely to be able to clear the conditions that Reis was saying. When that happens, what needs to be done is narrowed down to one.

That is, the question Leis asked Seth. It's about going to places that handle liquid metals that circulate in this country. As long as Jinglong doesn't go out of the kingdom, all the metal he mouths should be limited to what is in the kingdom, or what he imports.

Then all you have to do is find one of them that matches your criteria. Then, the identity of what is invading the body of the Jinglong is discovered.

"Speaking of places where liquid metals are handled in Wangdu..."

Reis still traces the memory of his life in the shallow Wang capital to look for a place like it, but he can't find it. Seth, who was born in a pharmacist's house, also had no connection to liquid metal.

Nature and gaze gather to Lulimes, the last person remaining on this occasion.

"I only know where the liquor store is. Yikes!

Full-faced grin, eh, chest-stretched lulimes. It's not something I can be proud of at all. Reyce didn't even expect it, so he drove Lulimes' presence out of consciousness early.

That's how you roar, a few minutes.

"No, maybe that guy would know.... No, but I do."

"What do you know?

"Well, I came up with someone who seems to know..."

Rayce looks at Lulimes' face and spills a quiet sigh. Because if Reyce makes you meet Lulimes with someone he comes up with, it can definitely be a hassle first.

Lulimes gained momentum when he boiled his business down to how the toothless Lace looked.

"All right, let's go! Let's go now!

Leaving Rayce and Seth in a daze, Lulimes headed outside the store alone. The two look at each other and have a subtle look.

"Are you sure you're okay...?

"No, well... yeah, I think I'm fine"

The sad thing I can't say for sure here.

Seth put her hand on her forehead and sighed, "Oh, boy.

"I don't have a choice, go... that"

Reyce gets up from her seat and finds out.

... Master, were you paying for it?

It was already late, and Reyce's wallet was a little lighter again.

as expected. Should I say that I have hit a bad feeling rather than Reyce sighed in her heart.

"Ho, the real Mr. Lulimes......!? How come you're here? No, this could be a dream. Yes, it could be a hallucination I'm looking at. But my cheeks hurt so this is reality......!? I mean, Mr. Lulimes in front of you is real!!

Whimpering in some excitement is the person Rayce took care of once when he built the workshop. The person, Nicola, was busily traveling around Lulimes, blinking her eyes in wonder.

"Ko, is this the one Rayce was saying...? Well, you're a very distinctive person..."

"Because my master said he was an admirer when I met him last time."

If you look at Nicola's disturbance, you can see very well that there was no lie or falsehood in the words. In terms of the magnitude of the reaction, it's more than Reis imagined.

If I remember correctly, he also said he had facial knowledge.

"Oh, oh, uh, it's Nicolas. Do you remember me!

"Mmm... er..."

Look at Nicolas, who is turning bright red, like right after he made his confession, and Lulimes, who will have an obviously troubled look. Seeing that look, I knew the answer without having to put it into words.

"Oh, sorry."

"... is that right"

Nicola is visibly distracted. There has been some tension until then, and the drop is severe.

Did the servant Lulimes also feel guilty, holding his forehead and exploring memories again?

"No, wait a minute... Sure, when I was drinking in King's Capital a few years ago..."

"Oh, yes! Did you remember!

"Oh, that time -! You've grown!

Apparently, he managed to bring back memories. Instead, I guess I had vague memories because I was drinking. What a lulimes-like reason.

"No, it wasn't Nicola who was drunk and she hugged me back in the day. That's when I told you a lot of stories."

"Heh, really?"

I don't want to have a drunk Lulimes opponent or anything, but thank goodness Nicola was different. From there to this much favor towards Lulimes, there is nothing else to call miraculous results.

They've been talking to each other for awhile to rejoice, but we're here today on another business. While I'm sorry, Reyce cuts out the story.

"And I came here today with something I wanted to ask, just in time for an inspiring reunion..."

"Ri, roger. Please, sit down."

Nicola waves her hands flat and sends the wind to her face, managing to calm her down. Still wasn't enough, I took a few deep breaths before sitting in front of the Reyes.

Like that in mind, the two accidentally laugh bitterly: Lace and Seth.
