Still Loved Even In The New World
CHAPTER 200: Metal «Abyssal Longing».

A long table was provided to put all the alchemy results of the students. On the long table there are twenty-one silver trays on which there are materials or potions and poisons of various shapes.

The tray that belonged to brother was placed at the very center and looked very striking because the pills and materials on the tray gave off an eye-catching light.

There were five jurors ready to judge the alchemy of the students. Two of the material and potion instructors, one top-tier adventurer, vice alchemy guild, and a representative of the forging guild.

People from outside the academy were not invited in particular, but originally they just wanted to enjoy the fun. Since their names were famous and trustworthy, the academy took this opportunity to ask them to participate.

Those people were also happily joining forces and wanted to see the abilities of the younger generation that might be their successors someday.

The first participant was a fat boy with narrowed eyes due to the fat on his face. The body looks round and has a lot of fat. He was the son of a large caravan owner who sold goods from different countries. It could be said that there were hardly any merchants on this land who did not know of the caravan.

"Can you explain what material you're making!."

"Yes, yeah."

The representative of the blacksmith guild spoke to the boy. He was the brawny man who had just sat down with the nobles at the same venue as me. The fat boy said solemnly and went forward to explain the materials he had made.

The material he made had a very fine metallic iron color almost resembling a mirror.

"This is a high quality steel with a light weight but has a very strong resistance even swords made using this material can cut ordinary armor like cutting leaves."

"If I don't guess wrong, you used three Ore blends and used a light forging technique to make this metal ingot."

"I, that's right."

"Do you know the name of this metal?."

When asked by the representative of the blacksmith guild, the fat boy became somewhat nervous and confused. He continued to play his fingers and his eyes wandered. The judges asked not because they did not know, but they wanted to test the students how much they knew about the alchemy products they had worked on.

"S, I don't know. I just got this way of making material from a scroll that my parents got from a faraway country."

Although the boy did not know, there was no dissatisfied jury. They all nodded their heads with smiles. Things like this are actually very reasonable. Many adventurers accidentally discovered various ancient relics. Because they did not know what it was or because they needed money, they sold it to the merchant. Of course a second possibility exists, too, that the reels were on the black market.

"This metal is named «Light leaves». I've met people who can make metal like this in my travels. Even though your technique still lacks a lot, but for your age, it's already very good."

The jurors left the boy and went to the next participant. The next participant was a glasses girl with her head lowered. Only at a glance, one could tell that the girl was a closed personality.

In front of the girl was a tray on which was a glass bottle filled with red liquid. This time the one who asked the girl was the representative of the Alchemist guild. Although he was called a representative, that person was not a trivial person within the Alchemist guild, but he was the vice-chairman of the quite famous Alchemist guild in the capital.

"Girl, can you explain to me what potion you made?."

"I, yes."

The girl came forward and introduced what she had made. He lifted the bottle and shook it slowly. The red liquid turned a green color as it swayed and came back red after the liquid inside calmed down.

"I, this is a miasma fog bomb that can incapacitate a person who inhales it. This liquid is odorless and tasteless. When exposed to air, the liquid inside will evaporate quickly and spread to the surrounding area."

"Hm... Real good. This will be very useful if used in the right way."

The man nodded with satisfaction. He looked at the liquid inside the bottle with bright eyes.

"But, bombs?."

The jury of the blacksmith guild asked in confusion. There's a word bomb in it, but where did the name come from?.

"That's because of the less stable nature of this fluid. If the bottle that holds the liquid is broken or the lid is opened suddenly, the chemicals in the bottle will react very hard to the air and explode into a smog that spreads to the surroundings. That's why poison is called a bomb."

Yang explained was an academy instructor. She is a woman with black framed glasses with long brown hair.

.....

The examination continues one by one until the turn of the brother. But when it was her turn, the judges just glanced at her and passed her. Not only brother, but a girl dressed in black and girl Rumi also passed by the judges.

They prefer to check the other participants first. Without much thought, I knew that the last three people were the ones with the most conspicuous looks.

Alchemical results of other students have different levels, but overall almost the same. Nothing really extraordinary.

Finally the three remaining people were ordered to move to the other table and show off the results of their alchemy products. All eyes were on the three people.

The older brother has the smallest body and is the youngest of the three. Despite this, but no one dared to underestimate big brother.

The first participant examined by the judges was a girl dressed in black with an excited face. In front of him was a pitch-black metal with a thin purple mist on its surface.

"Hm... Very enticing. I've never seen a metal like this. What about you guys?."

"I've never been either."

"No, I don't know either."

The judges discussed the metal the girl had made. No one knows what kind of metal it is. The academy only provides raw Ore. For additional materials, students can choose what they want to use.

So it is natural that some materials made will be foreign because of certain additional materials.

"Haha... Even the instructor didn't know. I obtained this way of processing materials from an Orc that I managed to kill in training."

"Okay, Nuan, do you know what this meter is?."

The girl's smile came to a sudden halt and her face turned slightly red and embarrassed.

Nuan:"Instructures, actually I don't know either. I have tried many ways to make it, but I continue to fail. I didn't expect that this time I would succeed."

The instructors and judges looked at each other after listening to the explanation from the girl named Nuan.

The representative of the blacksmith guild advanced and touched the metal surface. He touched it for a while before lifting the metal ingot.

"I don't know but I can feel the cold piercing through my gloves."

His hands were indeed wearing a black glove that was quite thick. Maybe the gloves were used to protect his hands so as not to get hurt while handling the material.

"The weight is also quite heavy for an iron ingot of this size."

He put the metal ingot back down and looked at the Nuan girl.

"For the moment we cannot give an assessment because we ourselves do not know what kind of material this is. We need to make a finished product and see the results. Nonetheless, I could tell from its density that this metal was much stronger than the other student metals. It might even be able to rival Mitril."

Suddenly my sister spoke. All eyes shifted towards the brother who was looking at the metal. Brother's face looks relaxed with a smile in a soft calm like a flower petal that falls on the surface of a pond.

"Miss Filia, do you know this metal?"

Philia:"Yes!."

"Can you prove it?."

The jury of the adventurer asked brother. Aside from doubting the brother who knew the metal that even the head of the blacksmith guild and the vice-chairman of the Alchemist guild did not know, he also wanted big brother to explain it so that other students could trust him. Otherwise, it would not be ridiculous to believe the words of a participant without proof. What if the participant was just talking origin to bring down the other participant.

Big brother answered him, but he looked at the girl who made the metal. The girl had some confusion and a hint of disbelief in her eyes when she saw big brother.

Filia:"In addition to finding a way of processing materials from Orcs, I'm sure you also found a powder that is blackish purple. Am I right?."

Hearing sister's question, the girl widened her eyes. He nodded with spirit.

Nuan:"Yes, yes. I did find a bag of black powder. Princess, please tell me, what is it."

Filia:"That's Abyssal Dust. Such dust is made by mixing the powdered monster crystal core that has been pureed and then mixed together with Abyssal blood."

"What!!."

Hearing that, they retreated and stayed away from the metal ingot.

Felmina:"Mother, what is Abyssal?."

Harnas:"On an island on the high seas directly adjacent to the Holy Kingdom, there is a considerable space crack, that space crack would spew out an enormous amount of crazy monsters called Abyssal demons. Since ancient times, the Holy Kingdom guarded that border to prevent the Abyssal demons from polluting this world with their madness. Father also abdicated from the throne, then went to the border to guard the border region. Another hundred years, it is the turn of the older brother who will replace the aging father to guard the border region. That's why in a hundred years, your brother will inherit the throne of the Holy Kingdom."

Rovell:"It was said that if any living thing were polluted by the Abyssal demon, they would also become crazy ugly monsters. That was why the Abyssal Demon was so terrifying. Countless human warriors and various races died at their hands when the huge wave occurred."

The great waves of the Abyss did not spill into the territory of the elves and humans because when the tide was about to happen, the entire kingdom would send their troops to join the fight with the Holy Kingdom against the invasion of the Abyssal demon.

.....

Filia: "You don't have to worry."

In the arena, brother told the men not to worry.

Philia:"Despite having Abyssal blood, the contamination will be very small and will not have much effect. But if touching it for too long, it might make people have nightmares, but that's okay."

Hearing big brother's explanation, everyone near the metal became a little calmer. They looked back at the metal with a hint of horror in their eyes.

Nuan:"So that's why I always have nightmares at night."

He said it excitedly. It seems that she is happy after discovering the cause of the nightmares that she has always experienced.

Nuan:"Then Princess, can this metal material be used to make weapons?."

The Nuan girl asked her sister again. He seemed very curious about the metal.

Filia:"Of course..This is a Tier zero top-tier material, it would be useless if not used."

Afterwards, brother explained the use of the metal. The metal can be used to forge weapons with incredible magical effects. If it was forged into a weapon, then the weapon would have a sharpness comparable to the weapon forged using Mitril.

In addition, the weapon would have an insanity effect. Where the person injured by the weapon will lose his sanity for a while. The more the person was injured by the Abyssal weapon, the more his sanity would also be eroded and eventually become insane and injure himself.

Worse, any injuries caused by the weapon will cause heavy bleeding, and the victim will not feel pain. So, if the metal is made into a small killing needle, they can kill the opponent without knowing it.

Even that weapon would be a perfect fit for Assassins.

Metal is scary. But the elder brother also said that there were serious flaws in the metal. If the weapon made using the metal is used in the long run, then the user will also be infected by the weapon that makes it crazy. It needs a solemn forging way to reduce such an effect.

Leonis:"After this is done, immediately secure the metal and the child."

The king whispered to my father. I know the king's worries. If the metal and the child fall into the wrong hands, then it will be very dangerous for the kingdom. Father did not reply, but nodded very seriously.

But suddenly, everyone became silent.

Filia:"You are very talented.Do you want to learn more alchemy?."

Nuan:"Yes, yes. I'd really like to learn more."

Brother nodded with satisfaction. The smile on his face became brighter than before. People, especially the elderly fell silent at the sight of the smiling older brother. I'm sure they're hoping that brother is their son or grandchild.

Harnas:"She really is my daughter.".

My smile still survives. He took something out of his hand. It was a silver-colored emblem with the size of a Phoenix bird and the moon on it.

Philia:"Well, will you join me?."

The girl saw the emblem on the brother's hand. Before his hand grabbed the emblem, big brother stopped him.

Philia:"If you take this emblem, you will be faithful to me. Are you sure?."

Nuan:"Yes, yes I'm sure."

The girl seemed to hesitate for a while, but she finally nodded with great confidence. He grabbed the emblem and knelt an oath of loyalty to brother. The emblem in his hand turned into a silver light and entered the girl's hand.

This episode took everyone by surprise for a while, but they soon returned and did not care about it. After all, there are many secrets of the Elf race that are unknown to humans, so everyone assumes that what is done by brother is a mysterious thing in the Elf race.

After the oath of allegiance, the girl looked at the elder sister with big eyes that were extremely shocked. After a while, he regained his senses and began to behave as usual. But I can see his admiration when I see my brother. I don't know what's wrong with the girl, but I'm not surprised if she's amazed at you.

Leonis:"Looks like your daughter's moving faster than me.. Huh..."

The king appeared to be sorry after the girl swore allegiance to the older brother. Despite that, he did not have any dissatisfaction on his face.

Reassessment is continued. This time it was Rumi's turn. I wonder if the potion he made will be worth it...

(The end of this chapter.)

In the next chapter Harnas will appear... Does anyone wonder what he is like?. Just wait for the next chapter.

If you find a mistake or type. that is not right, you can tell me right away. Also, if there is any suggestion or dissatisfaction, you can say it in the comments column, I will be happy to answer everything.
