Chapter 12: The Ruler of Alchemy
"That, Pache Lord......" Hiroshi secretly found a time to sneak out when he finished eating, and at that time, Patchouli had already left the act, and Sakuya also went to release Flanndor, so Hiroshi wasted a lot of effort to find Patchouli and sneak into the library...... I'm almost going to play hide and seek with Flandrew, of course, if I get caught, it is estimated that the result will not be much better, and Hongzhi is greatly relieved by this.
Then, Pache was found in the library......
In fact, if he had to go somewhere else, he didn't know how he would find this girl, she was more like a ghost than Yuyuko.
"Well, are you coming?" Pachouli shrugged her glasses slightly, also looked at Hongzhi, and said slowly.
But Hongzhi looked at his glasses a little sluggishly: Hey, where did you come from, it looks so cute......
Of course, these contents were only filtered in his own brain, and then he said, "That, Pache Lady, I ......"
"It's good to be here, don't say more, you can be regarded as my disciple anyway." Patchouli was quite serious, and then said, "Magic envoys generally only have one disciple, and even some magic envoys with a habit of cleanliness will even have only one apprentice, for ordinary people, we are witches, and we can be regarded as heretics." ā
Heresy, this name is the first time I have heard of it, after all, Hongyi doesn't know what Patchouli was like back then.
Why such a magic envoy would hold such a position as a military advisor in the Red Devil Pavilion and live with demons is also a strange thing.
"Forget it, there's no point in talking about these things...... Patchouli sighed, and then said, "Do you know what I called you here this time?" ā
He shook his head decisively, if he didn't know, he had to tell the truth, even if he was considered ignorant, it would definitely be much better than being embarrassed, so Hongji shook his head very honestly, because he really didn't know anything, and Pache sighed a little as if he hated iron......
Anyway, why do you have such a complicated expression, even if you don't know, it won't make you feel hurt to this point.
Pachouli opened her mouth and said, "Let me ask you first, after you left the Red Devil Pavilion, did you practice your magic properly?" ā
"This, indeed...... there is no doubt that Hongzhi has meditation almost every day to improve his magic power, perhaps because of the relationship he just learned, the speed of improvement is still very fast, especially after the inexplicable outbreak of the Earth Spirit Palace, it seems that he has made great progress......
However, these things are not enough for outsiders, so Hongzhi didn't plan to say it, and when Patchouli asked, Hongzhi could also answer calmly.
He was a good student and had always followed Pache and the like.
"Well, that's good." Pache nodded, but this time, her expression suddenly changed, and she said, "But, what do you call me?" ā
"That...... Pache ...... Your Excellency ......," Hiroshi repeated cautiously......
"However, I didn't ask you to call me that, I remember saying that you should call me teacher." Patchouli shrugged her glasses again and said.
"......" Hongzhi was dumbfounded, and I said Patchouli...... Teacher, isn't that why you're a little angry because of this kind of thing...... How much do you want to be a teacher?
"That, Pache ...... The teacher ......, "Sure enough, I'm still a little unaccustomed, but this is not the point, it's better to flatter a little at this time, Hongji said, "That, I did plan to call you teacher, but when we met again, I was a little apprehensive, so I ......"
It's really a lie, and Hongzhi himself knows that this is the first of a hundred ways for elementary school students to face the teacher's questioning, pretending to be innocent.
"yes, forget it, I'm not going to target you anyway, it doesn't matter what kind of thing happens." Pache leaned back in her chair and said, "What are you doing standing, sit down, I haven't spoken to you for a long time." ā
"Ah, yes, teacher......" Although I am still a little unaccustomed, I always feel that if I call Teacher Patchouli, I will lose something.
"Well, let's try it first......" Pache took out a pen, and then handed it to Hongbarny, which was a quill, Pache said, "Use your alchemy ability to turn this thing into gold......
"Oh, I see......" Hiroshi nodded, then reached out and grabbed the quill, then ......
Unleashed his magic power to pull the spiritual power, and after a while, the quill in his hand directly turned into gold......
"En......" Pache took the golden pen from Hong's hand, and said with some surprise, "It's pure gold, and it's already gold inside." ā
"......" Hongzhi nodded, this is completely different from when he first arrived, and sure enough, he is also a very powerful person now.
"It's a good job...... Paciuli nodded, and then said, "I'm a little surprised, I can't imagine that you, who were only able to turn things the size of particles into gold, can now do this, but you probably don't realize what you've done......"
Pache said this and then paused for a moment before speaking, "Can you turn this gold back?" ā
āā¦ā¦ Well, this doesn't seem to work...... "Indeed, it is impossible to turn gold back, and it seems that it will be forever when it becomes gold."
"Yes, sure enough, isn't it perfect enough in terms of power control, and it's not surprising, after all, aren't you mature enough?" As if everything had been expected, Patchouli nodded, and then said, "Actually, I wouldn't ask this question if it were someone else, but if it were you......"
It seemed that there was silence for a while, and then she continued to speak, saying, "Alchemy, do you want to see my alchemy?" ā
"Huh?" Hong Barnyard paused for a moment, and then nodded quickly, it turns out that Patchouli can also do alchemy, really, I really didn't know it at all in the past, it is really possible that anything happened in Gensokyo, Patchouli is actually good at alchemy, in this case, it doesn't seem strange at all.
Of course, this last thought is actually just a casual thought, and it has no deep meaning.
And Patchouli didn't think about how Hongli would guess, but took Hongli and walked to the backstage, where was her bedroom.
Pacouli's bedroom is in this large library, although she usually sleeps directly on the library table, but that bedroom is also an indispensable thing for her, in addition to eating, drinking, living and sleeping, it also includes writing some works, as well as some practical ......
After all, if you do it directly in the library, you are always worried about the situation of the books here.
"Well, you need to prepare a ......" After entering Pache Li's room, Hongji felt a strange feeling......
It's a very ordinary room, completely different from some of the bedrooms outside, very clean, very empty, there are not even bookshelves on the side, only a small desk, on which is a book that has been spread out, and there seems to be some text on it, but it is only halfway there, as if it was written by hand......
Handwriting, that is, that thing is likely to be something that Patchouli wrote by handwriting......
After all, many of the works in Pache Valley's library are her own creations, and it will not surprise Hongzhi in the slightest that there will be such a situation.
Pache didn't pay attention to Hongyi, who was observing her girl's boudoir, and seemed to be indifferent to this, Hongli saw the wardrobe, the bed, and another table with some test tubes on it......
It seems to be an existing device, so is it for magic research...... as a real yĆ n nature.
"That's probably it......" At this time, Pache Li's voice came again, and when Angsui's didn't notice, the empty space in the room seemed to have completed a small magic circle, and Pache realized that Pache seemed to have done a lot of things just now......
"Well, Pache Lady, what are you doing here......" As a curiosity, Hongji still raised his own question.
"Oh, it's very simple, alchemy, I'll show you the most standard alchemy process." As she spoke, Patchouli threw another quill into the circle, and five gorgeous stones flashed beside Patchouli.
The dazzling light directly lit up the room, and Hongzhi felt a little dazzling.
"This is ......" Hongnai opened his eyes wide as he watched the scene in front of him, and saw that under the strange incantation that Patchouli was chanting, the quill, like the thing in Hongnai's hand, slowly turned a golden color......
This material is really familiar, it is gold......
"Pache Lord, this ......" Hongji was a little surprised, but at the same time felt strange.
"Now, there's something I can tell you......" After finishing this simple spell, Pache said, "This is the ordinary gold refining, in fact, in most of the actual stories of gold refining throughout the ages, the methods used must be greatly used by external objects and magical powers, and if the conditions are lacking, it is necessary to have the Philosopher's Stone, and one piece is not enough to make it balanced. ā
So at the same time, Pache opened the five pieces, and said to Hongzhi, "You have to realize how amazing your abilities are. ā
