Chapter 285.2: Magic Potion

I need an antidote! Cry-san accidentally drank an undiluted solution of it (Sytry)

I see I see that you are still sloppy when it comes to your love affair.

Nikolalf sighs without showing what he was thinking.

Even if it was her old Academy, it was strange that Sytry brought in such a legendary Potion without keeping it to herself, but everything makes sense with what she just said.

It was the only and fatal weakness of the nearly perfect Sytry Smart. If it were not for this shortcoming, she would have been the best Alchemist in the world, but she cannot be a full-fledged Alchemist if she keeps forcing important experiments on others and leaves just because she was called by her boyfriend (Even if it was not very often).

Normally Sytry would try to duplicate the Potion first and foremost, not make an antidote. NoEven other Alchemists would do so. Even if it is a legendary Potion that has not been reproduced for hundreds of years, an analysis of the real thing should at least give you a hint as to how to make it.

And the reason why Sytry brought the potion without a second thought is probably because creating an antidote is much more difficult than replicating the actual product. It takes time, equipment, and manpower. That is why she had to ask for my cooperation. If she could recreate the Potion, she would engrave her name in the legendEven if you would need to fall from grace as an Alchemist.

I yelled at Sytry, who tried to keep her composure but couldn't hide her agitation.

As an Alchemist, you should always remain calm! Stop being so shaken, Sytry! (Nikolalf)Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m

But (Sytry)

In the first place, Sytry is greatly mistaken. If it was the usual calm and collected Sytry, she would have definitely noticed itThat was why I couldn't help but chide this former apprentice of mine for being in such a pathetic state.

Strawberry Blaze is a Magic Potion. Magic Potions often have different principles to them than ordinary Potions.

According to legend, with the Subordination Potion, you could completely control the person who drank it. But then, how did the drinker recognize the person who gave them the drink?

It would be the person who is right in front of you right after drinking itNot. Under such uncertain conditions, tragedy wouldn't have occurred. Various researchers racked their brains on it. All information about the Potion had been erased, but they unraveled the history books and discussed the matter based on the only remaining record of the devastation.

As a result, one conclusion came to light.

The bell is a device used to detect gas outbreaks. It is an essential tool in an Alchemist's laboratory.

In an instant, I grasped the situation. This isAn attack.

I don't know if it is sleep, paralysis, or poison, but it is a gaseous attack to subdue me. It is quite a feat to make Nikolalf dizzy, who, by virtue of his profession, has Mana Material allocated to ailment resistance. And there are only a limited number of people who can attack this room, which exists in the deepest part of the Academy of Magical Science.

Thanks to Sytry being a Hunter, it seems like this level of gas does not do her any damage.

Their objective is clear. I close the lid of the metallic canteen tightly and simultaneously activate all the security golems of the laboratory that were lined up along the wall of the room. Specially made golems with slim bodies are lined up at Nikolalf's order.

Damn, did they already sniff it outI am the chairman of the Academy, you know! Golems, kill every last one of those thieves trying to steal the potion! I won't let you have it, I will never let you have it! Sytry is my former apprentice! This potion is also my experimental material! (Nikolalf

Did that assistant betray me or did the other labs notice the pale Sytry and followed her? Either way, we will kill them all. I will never hand over such valuable material. I inject a homemade all-purpose antidote (Untested) to cure the dizziness.

Sytry timidly approached Nikolalf, who had an impatient look on his face.

Uuuum I want to start researching on an antidote as soon as possible (Sytry)

Sytry, you should take action too! If they steal it, we won't be able to create the antidote! They will use every means at their disposal to rob us. This gas is a lethal one! (Nikolalf)

The golems kicked down the door and went outside, and almost at the same time, a violent explosion shook the building. A few pieces of the golem scatter. They are coming with the intent to kill us. They are going to take this Strawberry Blaze even if it means getting rid of Nikolalf.

We must prevent the story from spreading. We have to get rid of them all.

Let's go Sytry. It's war! (Nikolalf)

Nikolalf's eyes lit up as he stood up, but the Worst of the Worst (Saitei Saiyaku) was astonished.

Thanks for reading! And this is how the legendary Strawberry War began No, but more serious, being able to rise in Nikolalf's esteem just by drinking strawberry milk, Sasuga Cry!
