"What's wrong? " Alya asked as Nine turned her gaze to look at the notification on the Abyss System
"I'm going to Scarlet Boran's lab." Nine had not had time to send Alya back, Alya instead asked to come along.
"Follow, " his eyes were shining.
Nine thought a little, “Alright,” he said and then opened the Map on the Abyss System leading to the Scarlet Boran Laboratory.
---
Scarlet Boran Laboratory, the building is quite large, similar to an ancient building, written on the front using Alanta language, Scarlet Boran.
In the Abyss Encyclopedia explained, Scarlet Boran was the site of a rare herbal-herbal transaction found within the Abyssal Tower. Not only that, Scarlet Boran was also the place for the Climbers to get some poison or potion as supplies to climb the Abyssal Tower.
Climber is a term for those who climb the tower with the aim of reaching the top and solving the mysteries stored in it.
"Is there anything we can help you with?" said one of the receptionists on duty.
"Where is Lenhart's Alchemist Room? " Nine asked.
"Can we confirm your ID number on the Abyss System?" ask the receptionist again, but after Nine scanned the ID in the verification process, it was clear the receptionist's expression changed, there was a sense of fear shown.
"I'm sorry, I don't recognize you as the owner of Title Legendary, Aegle" he said with a slight bow of his head.
"It's okay. " Nine doesn't care much about it.
"I'll take you to where the Alchemist is, "the receptionist said respectfully, "But before we had candy, did your little brother like it?" he continued to Alya who was beside Nine.
"Yes, Alya wants candy, "Alya replied spoiledly.
After Alya was given some lollipop-shaped candy, they went to where the Alchemist was.
Not long after, they arrived at the door of a large, high-brown, clay-like door with some strange ancient symbols, "Alchemist Lenhart was behind this door, and there was no room for it, You just need to do a Scan ID to open it." the receptionist explained.
After Nine agreed to his words, the receptionist withdrew.

After Nine Scanned ID, the door opened.
The room looks like a laboratory, but it does not look like a modern laboratory in general, even the equipment, everything looks foreign.
"Finally you came too, what do you think of this laboratory?" Alchemist Lenhart says hello. There's no one in this room, he's alone.
"It's not about the lab, but rather how much data is stored on it" Nine replied.
"Ohhoo, you have an interesting view, "Alchemist Lenhart gives a little praise.
"Isn't that little girl you're with Aurelia, how could the little creature I'm experimenting with be here?" he continued to see Alya was next to Nine.
"Based on the old grandmother" said Alya, replying to what Alchemist Lenhart said.
By pulling the black cape I was wearing, "Son don't be fooled by his appearance, he's old" Alya warned Nine.
The appearance of the Lenhart Alchemist was like that of a 25-year-old woman, looking young and beautiful with her hair dark black.
"It seems that I have a reason to do something terrible, "Alchemist Lenhart posed a threat to Alya, but not something terrible, what Alchemist Lenhart said was like a joke.
Many things they talked about, until finally Alya decided to play in another room, "If you are finished with the old grandmother, tell Alya yes?" Alya seemed to understand that there would be an important discussion between Nine and Lenhart's Alchemist.
---
"Alright now we get to the point, but before that do you know the meaning of the Title Aegle that you have," asked Alchemist Lenhart after Alya's departure.
"Are you worthy to say you are a Pillar, asking something you already know?" The senseless answer.
"Ahh sucks, why should I make a sleeping person in my class a student, not even the slightest bit of him salute me," Alchemist Lenhart grumbled.
"... " on the other hand Nine just fell silent.
"But that's the thing I like about you, it's so boring to get so much praise and everyone respects you."
"When you become a Pillar, everything will be very scared of you, especially coupled with what happened at that time, remembering it makes me want to smile."
"Do you know that? " Alchemist Lenhart ends the story of her with a question.
"That's a famous story, "Nine answered
"When one is in front of those who are feared, half of his intelligence will be lost instantly, it will be terrible to have such a figure inherit my knowledge."
"But that's just one of the reasons why I chose you. "
"Are you not curious about the next reason?" Alchemist Lenhart asked again.
"Should I beg you to explain? " His face looked flat, as if there was no sense of caring.
"I thought you'd be interested, now I'm really not excited to explain it to you," Alchemist Lenhart paused a little, “Alright, I'll explain it to you, "he continued annoyed.
"Do you know what Quest Grade S you managed to obtain? " Alchemist Lenhart begins with a question.
"... " Nine just noticed.
"Even a genius though, ideally they could obtain a Grade S Quest after obtaining Level ☆."
"While in order to obtain a Grade S Quest, it is required to complete a Grade A Quest for a small amount, and collect several puzzles scattered throughout the existing city."
"And you certainly know, at least students must reach Level ☆ as a requirement to go to several cities, but in fact you are only Level 9."
The alchemist Lenhart explained everything quite long, "Do you now understand about the Grade S Quest you obtained, "Alchemist Lenhart then asked.
"Does this mean that, among all first-year students, I am the only one to obtain a Grade S Quest? " Nine's Question.
"Yes, you're the only one." After a bit of thought, Alchemist Lenhart continued, “Even a Pillar is not granted Mixed Access. So don't think I'm too good, but it's the system that doesn't allow you to make your level minus.”
After saying so, Alchemist Lenhart alluded to the Title Eryl that Nine had, "I've never heard of Title Eryl, surely the Grade S Quest that you get has something to do with the Title." Analysis of a Pillar.
“Is 4L giving that Title?” Alchemist Lenhart asked.
“...”
“Last, I want to explain. The Title Eryl is a title that is in a different dimension. The future that awaits you is terrible.”

Lenhart's alchemist talked about many things, including explaining the Title Aegel that went into the Legendary Title. While one of the privileges given to the owner of the Title is given the right of free access to some cities in the Abyss without conditions.
In addition to freeing up access to several cities, the Title Legendary Aegle also had the privilege of removing the conditions of going to the Academy and all the conditions towards the top of the Abyssal Tower were completely abolished.
What Alchemist Lenhart explained reminded Nine during a visit to the Academy of Physis Altera, a notification indicating he was not allowed into the Academy.
"If you can upgrade your abilities in the field of Alchemy, the Aegle Title you get will turn into Egel.
"If that happens, you will be given the power to make a rule in the development of Alchemy in the Abyss. Even you could be invited to great experiments that change the order of the world."
"What do you think, do you like it? " ask Alchemist Lenhart after explaining everything at considerable length.
"Yes I like it, "Nine replied, an answer that made Alchemist Lenhart seem annoyed.
"Oh, how can I believe you like it when you show a face like that."
"Do what you will" Alchemist Lenhart concluded.
After what happened, through the Abyss System, Alchemist Lenhart gave all the student answers from the class taught in the previous auditorium, and had Nine express my opinion on the question.
What does the theory of chemistry look like in creating an artificial human being or animating someone who has died?
While waiting, Alchemist Lenhart then went to one of the rooms, the room where Aurelia was.
---
Some time passed and Alchemist Lenhart came, “Are you done?” he asked Nine who was sitting in one of the chairs.
"Silly thoughts, I disagree with all of them," Nine replied.
"But I agree with their answer," Alchemist Lenhart smiled then sat down facing Nine.
"I don't believe anyone can create an artificial human being or bring a dead human to life. No matter how high up your knowledge is in chemistry," Nine is not affected at all by what Lenhart's Alchemist says.
"I want to hear the foundation of your theory of thought," Lenhart's Alchemist Smile looked terrifying.
"It's impossible for someone to create an artificial human being and more impossible to live someone who has died" Nine explained.
"There will be no problem in creating the anatomical structure of a human being, but the place where the problem is is to make it function as it should."
"Humans can move because of the number of cells in the body, there are at least 75 trillion more cells that work so that humans can move normally."
Nine went on to explain to him all the theoretical foundations that corroborate his argument, explaining all the anatomical structures of the human being, heart, kidneys, lungs, liver, and all those that have an important connection to the human body.
"It is impossible for humans to reach that level of complexity" Nine continued and then gave a parable.
"We assume that humans can reach that point of complexity with the technology they have or do inter-organ transplants."
"The biggest problem is that humans cannot create the consciousness that makes a person think, or a simpler language, humans cannot create life."
"All the organs of the body are essentially brain-driven, but consciousness itself no one knows, even dreams are still a mystery to scientists."
"If humans can reach that point, it could be the first step to bringing people to life, but still, I believe it's impossible."
"I don't want to argue, no matter whether you agree or not, my answer won't change.” Nine ended.
Laughing, Alchemist Lenhart laughed at all the theories presented, "You are indeed really interesting, "Alchemist Lenhar gives a little praise.
Not long after, Alchemist Lenhar began to explain the truth behind it all.
"Every year I always open one class that is devoted to the first batch, but in order to enter that class, they have to prove their worthiness by completing several Grade A Quests, they must prove their worthiness, and one of your friends took the test."
"Not only that. As a condition, they must also create a team of 3 members, "
"Pillar was once the most influential Alchemist and was considered a symbol of the advancement of alchemy in the Abyss. Does anyone dare to doubt it? "
“...” Nine thought a little.
"When I told them to make a theory of creating artificial humans." Alchemist Lenhar continued.
"Because I say so, they will unconsciously think, create man-made something that can be done, moreover the many films that are behind the creation of man-made, artificial man, eventually they'll be hard to think scientifically."
"That's when they need a team to combine all the knowledge they have."
"The goal is to make a theory that's scientific, but still they believe what I'm saying and make a theory that's inspired by the movie they're watching."
"It's been going on for years, until I almost gave up. But I found you who were not afraid of me and managed to obtain a Grade S Quest.
"And now you have a different answer than everything, have an answer that I really want."
“...” In the end, Nine understood everything.
No other and no less, the main purpose of the Lenhart Alchemist was to look for disciples. Everyone has a trusted way of thinking, and this is the path that Alchemist Lenhart chose in search of the generation that inherited his scientific treasures.
The truth behind everything has been explained, Alchemist Lenhart then spent a lot of time measuring Nine's abilities in the field of Alchemy, none other than to prepare the materials to be taught.

After the end of their meeting, Nine headed for the room where Alya was, when the door was opened, something that was not supposed to be seen, Alya fell asleep on the sofa while hugging a piece of human head in her arms.
"I thought you'd be a little surprised, but it turns out I was wrong" said Alchemist Lenhart, who saw the whole thing.
"I hate people like you, turning children into experimental materials. They were small, but they had to experience a painful life, should their lives be better." Nine replied.
"Do you want to give birth to a monster that will destroy this world?" Nine asked, there was a sense of anger in his mind.
“...” The alchemist Lenhart did not say anything, he just stood up and leaned against the wall that was beside the door.
"Sister, Alya is still sleepy, " said Alya asking after Nine removed a piece of the head that was in his arms.
“...” Without saying anything, Nine then sat back to Alya making it easier to carry. Afterwards, Nine left Alchemist Lenhart alone.
"I hope you can win, when doing Prysal tomorrow, "Alchemist Lenhart gives spirit when Nine is already on the doorstep. Just pausing for a moment, and without saying anything, Nine then left.
After Nine's departure, there was a smile on the lips of Alchemist Lenhart, "Nine, looking at your attitude, it looks like you are the result of the experiment itself."
