Chapter 18: Hughya's Diary

On September 1, 1547 in the Nayas calendar, the weather was fine.

I finally became a junior alchemist and arrived at the place I had always dreamed of, the headquarters of the Alchemy Society.

The headquarters of the association is so big, I got lost, and I couldn't find a place to report.

At this moment, a handsome man wearing a white alchemy robe, a monocle on his right eye, and a book of unknown knowledge came across from me.

As if he saw that I was lost, he stopped, smiled and asked if I was new.

Looking at his warm eyes and gentle voice, I couldn't help but bump into the fawn in my heart.

I didn't hear what he was saying.

will just follow him blankly.

In the end, he took him to the place where he reported, and saw that he was also on the registration list, signing his name.

I realized that he, like me, was a newcomer.

Krent,

Is this your name?

April 3, 1548 in the Nayas calendar, the weather, overcast.

Thanks to my hard work, I have finally been promoted to the rank of Intermediate Alchemist.

I can't wait to share this news with Xiao Ke.

But as soon as I reached Krent's door, I stopped from walking with the constant sound of crying in the room.

I hid behind the door and saw Xiao Ke holding a photo, tears streaming down my face.

It turned out that I didn't know him all along, and looking at his sobbing back, my heart also ached.

Xiao Ke,

Why are you so sad?

May 1, 1548 in the Nayas calendar, the weather was fine.

Today's weather is exceptionally bright, and Krent, who has not been out for a long time, finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

It's just that his figure is very haggard, he originally had a habit of cleanliness, the white robe on his body has long been dyed gray, his hair is messy, his face is full of scum, and he walks aimlessly.

I jumped up to him and said hello.

"Hey! Long time no see, little gram! ”

However, he ignored me and walked straight ahead.

I could only stop and watch his lonely back, getting farther and farther away from me.

On May 7, 1548 in the Nayas calendar, the weather was fine.

On this day, the upper echelons of the association suddenly assigned a task to me and Xiao Ke.

It is said to keep a copy of the alchemist's notes.

When I first received the news, I almost jumped with excitement.

Great, Gram, I'm finally back to see you again.

On May 20, 1548 in the Nayas calendar, the weather was fine.

In the past few days, I have noticed that Xiao Ke's condition seems to be getting better and better.

Is it finally going to change back to the original Xiao Ke?

However, why does Xiao Ke always let me rest when there is something to do?

June 3, 1548 in the Nayas calendar, weather, heavy rain.

What did I see?

I can't believe my eyes!

Small gram... Small grams: How could such a thing be done?

What the hell happened to make Xiao Ke like that!

It must be that notebook,

That's right, it must be!

I have to stop this!

On June 7, 1548 in the Nayas calendar, the weather was still heavy rain.

I made an excuse to break it up and stole the notebook when I opened it.

It's horrible!

What is written in this notebook is terrible!

The truth of alchemy is equivalent exchange, but the madness of this note is beyond my comprehension!

I will never put it back again!

I'm going to have to take it with me!

What if they are misunderstood? What if you betray the association?

Wait for me! Xiao Ke, I will definitely pull you out of the abyss!

On July 10, 1548 in the Nayas calendar, the weather was fine.

Today I was drinking at Chopper's Tavern and found my own wanted warrant!

Fortunately, I put my hood on in time, otherwise I would have been recognized.

However, I saw the news of Xiao Ke because of this, and he was actually exiled to the town of Docker.

Should I go to him or not?

August 1, 1548 in the Nayas calendar, weather, rain.

I finally came to the small town of Dockerham.

And using the method recorded in the notebook, a mouse in the sewer was turned into a monster.

Its existence can keep me from being discovered by Xiao Ke.

As I began to learn about the notebook, though.

I finally understood what Xiao Ke wanted to do.

On August 3, 1548 in the Nayas calendar, the weather was fine.

The weather is nice today.

I hid in the shadows and directed the Plague Rat King near the sewers beneath my feet.

Looking at the association opposite, Xiao Ke, who was quietly flipping through the books, was looking at it from a distance.

His eyes were still so gentle.

Don't worry, Xiao Ke, just let me bear all the pain.

I will definitely make your deceased wife.

Resurrected!

"Whew..."

After Chu Li finished reading the contents of the diary, he took a deep breath and then slowly closed it.

At this time, the alchemy room was very quiet.

Everyone looked at Huya, who had become a corpse, and was silent.

From her diary, it is obvious that it is known.

Krent, doesn't love her.

He may even hate her very much because she took away her only hope of resurrecting his wife!

But she endured these in silence, until she died, and it was only when she was dying.

Say a word to Krent.

"I'm sorry".

In fact, the content of this diary, Chu Li is also the first time to see it.

In the previous life of Potato, after Crent dropped the diary, he finally found his target on the bookshelf, and carved a teleportation array, and then left here with Potato.

And when explaining his video behind the potato, he told the audience that he regretted that he didn't pick up the notebook.

Otherwise, the completion rate of customs clearance will not be only 60%.

Therefore, if Chu Li hadn't told Krent these words in the diary, then the result would have been exactly the same as what happened to Tudou in the previous life.

Looking at Clent, who was looking at Huya's corpse with a blank face, Chu Li sighed.

"I finally understood why Huya didn't put the alchemist's notes in the dark room, but in a seemingly useless diary.

Perhaps, Hughya didn't want you to know until the end that she fell into the abyss for you.

It is also so that you do not have to bear her sins. ”

After listening to Chu Li's words, Krent, who finally understood all this, could no longer hold back his demeanor.

Directly fell next to Huya's corpse, tears came out of his eyes, and he cried loudly.

"Why? Why?

Hughya! Why are you so stupid!

I obviously don't like you at all in my heart, why do you want to do this for me!!!

Resurrect Kelly,

It's just my thing, my madness, my obsession!

All the sins, all the pains, should be borne by me!

Why did you fall into this abyss for me!!

Hughya!! You speak! You stand up and speak! ”

Krent seemed to have used all his strength to roar through all this, and no longer had the strength to support his body, and fell to the ground weakly.

Just when everyone didn't know what to do next, an old voice with strange magic appeared in everyone's ears.

"Okay, if you want to continue to resurrect your wife, or resurrect this girl, stop crying, it will only make people see your vulnerability."

Everyone looked back and saw a pitch-black figure hidden in a cloak appearing at the door of the alchemy room.
