Chapter 1281: She Wasn't Just Messing Around!



Seeing Celica and Celeste looking even worse than yesterday, I quickly told them about the news once I finished eating half the stew, I was too hungry to stop beforehand.

I explained them about the Alchemy Runes, which at first, made them quite suspicious I as just trying to bullshit them, because just like me, they had not felt any changes at all.

"Are you sure you're saying the truth, Sylphy?" Celeste said. "I didn't feel a single thing myself..."

"Me neither, if I had gained so many runes I would have felt it long ago..." Celica nodded. "Nah, just calm down and analyze your internal body structure using your Mana Sense," I explained. "It should be as clear as day once you analyze yourselves properly."

Both of them looked at each other while raising an eyebrow, and then did as I asked them, they were good friends, so they had to trust me, even if a little bit!

""

"Hm?"

The two of them continued their concentration, slowly, they found something, something that made them gasp in surprise to the point of disbelief.

"W-Wha...?!"

"What the...!"

Once they finally opened their eyes, they looked back at me, and I was giving them a big ol' smile.

"See? Hehe, Master Felicia wasn't just messing with us this whole time, it works," I said. "We've at least gotten ten times stronger with Alchemy than before with all those Runes.

"B-But what?! How come I never realized their existence!" said Celeste. "T-This shit's insane! Ah, excuse me the vocabulary..."

"It's fine... I'm used to it," my dad shrugged. "So what are you talking about? You found something?"

"Yeah! Uncle Allan! We're full of alchemy runes!" said Celica. "I think it's the training! It did that to us! We're overflowing!"

"Wow, what?! Really?" my dad asked. "I could swear Felicia just did this to give you disciple or something... it actually made you stronger in alchemy, for real?"

Not even my dad had faith on Felicia, and that was pretty funny, I had to admit it. "Yeah, we've actually gained hundreds of Alchemy Runes," I nodded. "Before we barely had any mostly because we didn't really need them. Alchemy by itself is a composite "Element" of magic made out of many other elements, so making runes out of it takes more space than normal elemental runes... But with this method, it doesn't really matter. Body, soul, magic circle, the runes spread everywhere and somehow they remain in total harmony, without harming the others."

"It's amazing! Is this why my cleaning became a bit faster?" wondered Celeste.

more plates of stew and more bread before finally feeling better.

And once we rested for half an hour, we decided to continue with the grind, this time, employing the power of the Alchemy Runes.

"{Synthesis}!"

FLASH!

The effects were quite clear, the dust was cleansed completely and turned into a black pebble

in my hand.

It was quicker, more efficient, and stronger than before!

"Woah, alright, that's really a good change," I nodded with a smile.

"Let's finish this off then, Sylphy!" Alice cheered for me.

"You can do it," Yggdra nodded.

"Do your best, masta!" said Naturia, cheering as well.

"Just hurry up already!" Ignatius appeared just to bark at me.

"Seriously, I'm so bored..." Beelzebub added.

"I don't particularly care..." Curse shrugged.

"You guys really love not adding anything to the conversation, huh?" Furoh sighed.

At least I had this giant army of familiars to bring me company...

Alright, let's get this done with!

...

I wonder how Aquarina's doing right now, it has been two weeks after all...
