The Frontier Alchemist ~ I Can’t Go Back to That Job After You Made My Budget Zero

free hand, and give it to Roa.

She starts waving it around as soon as she takes it.
This room is larger than most, but it’s still a room, and the wind she creates by waving the spear starts messing it up.

“Roa! Do that outside!”

“Yes, Ahri.
Thank you Master Rust, this is a good spear.”

“No, you need to know how to use it.”

She doesn’t listen to me, and slips out of the room.

“Hahaha.
She’s like a kid with a new toy.
But oh well, at least she actually thanked you.
She’s grown a bit, hasn’t she Ahri?”

Says Kalin while laughing.

“My head hurts… I’m sorry Master Rust.
Please tell me later what she needs to know about the spear.
That seems like a very fine item.
Thank you for doing that for Roa.”

I say yes to Ahri, while seeing the magic elements of her future sight magic eye, and turn to Kalin.

“So Lady Kalin, what is this about?”

I say while pointing to Kalin’s aides, who have grave looks on their faces.

“Ah, yes.
We just received a request from the capital directed specifically to you.”

“Me? Hm… What kind of request?”

“Good question.
Officially, it’s from Floren, the first princess.”

“Uwah…”

“There’s more.
I have quite a few connections in the royal castle thanks to you, and according to one of those connections, this request is coming to you because behind closed doors, you were recommended by the church of Araysla in the capital.
Apparently they made a case to Princess Floren that you are the best alchemist in the world.”

The church of Araysla in the capital? That reminds me of Actor Kahelone and Sister Reese.

“That’s beyond an exaggeration… So what’s the request anyway?”

“Apparently a dead person has risen.”

Says Kalin still with a smile on her face, although her eyes look troubled.
