I Summoned a Max Level Demon by Myself

Episode 120

“… … It’s dangerous.”

I want to laugh at the words that come out of the mouth of the girl of the Millicell family who runs the black market.

Knowing what she was warning me about, I just pretended to listen.

“So what are you here to do? It’s not like you took an immature lady to the black market.”

“I am the only one with a business. what is he… … I just followed you because I was bored.”

“The second daughter of the Lyoleites? … … indeed.”

I didn’t ask what you were thinking.

Linel, too, stopped arguing with Elcia for the time being, as if he had no intention of causing more commotion.

When Linel, who guided us, gave instructions to his subordinate, he carefully brought the boxes containing the elixir he ordered.

“Sian, these are the elixirs you ordered. I had a lot of trouble trying to save you.”

“… … that’s fast I expected it to take longer here.”

“There’s no way I can’t find anything that’s circulated within the empire.”

Somehow it sounds like a compliment.

No, you’re showing off.

“… … Wait, aren’t these all drugs banned from distribution?”

Elcia, who was watching the transaction, looks at the elixirs and says something suspicious.

“Don’t be afraid to listen. It’s not banned, it’s drugs similar to them. Do you see it differently?”

As Linell said, looking closely, the letters of the name on the elixir bottle are very slightly different.

… … Do you know the expression, blindfolded and aung?

“Are you deceiving the empire?”

“Don’t say anything terrible. To the end, the creed of Millikel Corporation is to provide the right customer with what the customer wants.”

“I only saved it because I was sure that this kid wanted it and that it was a product he could afford.”

The elixirs I ordered were products that would not be unlocked unless their credit rating increased to some extent on the black market, even during the gaming days, so it wouldn’t be wrong.

The black market does not blindly buy goods from just anyone.

Did they say that their creed is that they do not do business with children because they know that if they sell something they cannot afford, they will be in trouble.

“As Elcia said, these drugs are very effective. However, the side effects are fatal, so they are not openly distributed.”

Some of the elixirs have some troublesome effects.

For example, an elixir that increases stamina by 10.

However, if you drink it recklessly, as a side effect, your magic power will drop by 10.

Drugs with risk.

“Why did you buy this?”

“I can use this in moderation.”

It is useful to me because I know how and under what conditions it can be used.

“Yes, I will show you something good.”

It’s been a long time since I’ve been following, so it’s better to show off a little knowledge than to leave it alone.

“How to use these elixirs… … . I will show you more knowledge.”

“… … in this place?”

“It’s that easy.”

After getting permission from Linel with a moderate wink, I took out some of the elixirs I had purchased and laid them out on the table.

“You don’t have to tell me about the effects of these things one by one.”

“… … Aren’t they all dangerous?”

“Well, it looks like it.”

“Are you trying to show me how to use these?”

“That’s not bad either… … . Well, I’ll show you more than that.”

It is also possible for professors at the academy to simply discuss how to use this.

It’s knowledge enough to brag about at the student level, but it’s not something worth talking about.

What I’m trying to show you is something that even those professors don’t know.

“The value of these things is that they are materials.”

“Material?”

“Look Carefully.”

I confidently declared and activated the synthesis skill toward the potions I had brought out.

《Would you like to synthesize the items?》

Elixir is an item that can be used by itself, but can also be used as a material for making higher-level items.

Above all, it is common for rare drugs to require lower-level drugs as materials.

“Magiro… … Is it the secret to recombining objects?”

“That’s how it is. It’s a trick using the knowledge of black magic and alchemy.”

“… … You are good at it.”

I wonder if I need to be surprised, but it doesn’t seem like that from Elcia’s point of view.

“Anyway, if you use this, you can make something more useful.”

《The Black Swan’s Blood has been completed.》

Using the elixirs as materials, he creates a higher level medicine.

good. It is proof that the recipe I am grasping is correct.

“A new drug… … Did you make it?”

“that’s right. Have you heard of the elixir called black swan blood?”

“… … Hmm?!”

Elcia’s expression hardened as she thought about the name of the medicine I put in my mouth.

“Did I hear you wrong?”

It’s not.

“I think I’ve heard of a drug with a similar name, but it’s definitely the name of a very precious drug.”

“Not worth it. No, very few people have seen the real thing.”

According to the setting, only the emperor of the empire from hundreds of years ago had come across the real thing.

“Ahhhhh?! wait for a sec! draft!”

As soon as he understood the identity of the drug, it was Linell who reacted the most furiously.

A scream that seems to have thrown away the dignity of a black market mistress.

“Nonsense?! Poetry, Xi’an?! Is that really what you made?! The blood of that black swan!”

“Is it that surprising?”

“Surprised! Don’t be surprised! Do you know how many people want that drug?! Even simply putting it on the market… … .”

“Is it windy?”

Linel finally regains his cool and nods his head with his mouth shut.

Did you think the conversation might leak out?

I don’t care.

“… … boy, boy I mean that.”

“I’m sorry, but I don’t sell them.”

It’s kind of dull.

However, looking at the reaction, it might have been expected in advance that I would reject it with a single knife.

“Are you not selling?”

Instead, it seems that Elcia was puzzled.

“Mr. Linell said a moment ago. that the wind is blowing If you sell it, you’ll be bothered about how it was made or where it came from.”

“We will keep our mouths shut.”

“Still, words will leak out somewhere.”

So pass now.

“I have something else in mind, so let’s talk about it then, Mr. Linell.”

“I’ll be looking forward to that.”

Well, that will happen in the near future.

“… … Is that how you usually obtain elixirs?”

“This is really rare to get. If it was a drug of a lower grade than this, I would make it and use it as soon as I had the opportunity.”

“This is absurd knowledge. Did you even try your hand at the pharmacy?”

Elcia nodded as if she understood something.

“… … Is knowledge also this different?”

I don’t know what I’m thinking, but for now, I quietly pretended not to notice.

‘Maybe she won’t realize the answer she’s looking for with this.’

but now don’t say

leaving the black market behind.

Right from the slums, she was guided to the side road to the main street of the island, and even while she was coming out there, for some reason, Elcia didn’t say much the whole time.

Knowing that, I left it for a while, and as soon as I got to the street, I started talking.

“First of all, my work is roughly finished with this.”

“Ugh, huh?! yes… … . I’m sorry. I thought for a moment.”

“Elcia, as you wished, I gave you a rough idea of how I am doing. Do you understand now?”

“… … Right. I understand that it is different.”

No, I didn’t realize it at all.

“What did you understand?”

“I realized that your ability and knowledge are outstanding. It’s amazing. Seniors will not be able to act like you.”

“It’s not like that.”

“what?”

I let out a long sigh at Elcia, who blinked.

“I think you’re mistaken about something, so I’ll correct you. Elcia, none of the things you saw me doing today will help you improve your skills.”

I thought I wanted to see you, so I allowed you to accompany me today, but in the end, what I do is only possible because I am me.

“That doesn’t help?”

“I don’t know what you are nervous about. To be honest, I don’t even want to get involved that much.”

Probably because of her family and her personal history. Of course I know.

As for the answer, I could give it right here, but I know that won’t help.

It’s like a game, but it’s a different part.

It’s optimistic to think that if you just memorize your options and throw out the answers, things will work out on their own.

But, can I meddle with this much?

“I’ll tell you, it won’t help you break your limits.”

“… … Ugh.”

Elcia kept her mouth shut as if she had hit the mark.

ya know

The reason why she is suddenly interested in my behavior patterns.

Even if the trigger was simply to have contributed to bullying me in my family, there was an obvious cause.

“Are you blocked by a wall?”

wall of skill.

No matter how hard you try, you won’t feel the improvement.

It’s a story from the gaming era.

Elcia’s status is famous for being high compared to other children in the early stages.

However, the level of training difficulty was quite high.

The reason is simple.

After a certain point, the level does not rise.

“Is that what it is now?”

“how… … .”

“No matter how you sleep, you can tell by looking at their faces.”

The reason why Elcia can’t make progress.

Even more so, that is the time of this evaluation.

It’s no coincidence.

On top of that, even now that I intervene and say this.

‘Originally, someone else should do it, but.’

Someone really seems to be living a life that’s the exact opposite of the story of the game I knew, so I’ll have to do it.

‘If this happened, let’s intervene.’

She wasn’t the only one worried.

I also observed her all day today, wondering whether or not to intervene.

It is better to keep it.

Otherwise, sooner or later, she’s likely going down a very bad road.

“… … I hate to point this out, but let me tell you. Elcia, the reason for your nervousness is clear.”

It was the time when I was about to speak first, as if to sentence something.

(Sian, avoid.)

fleshy.

On top of that, as soon as I heard Emily’s fire, which I noticed before me, I stopped talking and lowered my head to the side.

Something brushes my ears and vanishes through the air.

“Memorization… … .”

It’s probably a dagger-type weapon.

For a moment, he remembered the person who attacked him earlier, but he soon concluded in his head that he was different.

skills are different. It’s far more crude.

“It’s different.”

“Now that?! What happened?”

“Okay. Which guest are you?”

Even if you didn’t say it was an attack, you would know that.

However, it is something to ponder for a while about who he was aiming for.

Watch out for the assailants who have been caught.

Familiars who are not particularly familiar.

“Right. Is it over there this time?”

As soon as we were convinced of the truth of this situation, the assailants jumped at us at the same time.

“Where?”

I flicked my hand while stopping Elcia from stepping out.

Papa papapat!

A sharp goal spear protruding from the air greets the assailants.

“In lieu of a handshake. You guys didn’t even wash your hands, so why don’t you go through this instead.”

I avoided and aimed at the vital points where possible, but I can’t guarantee anything beyond that, and I have no intention of doing so.

(Can you help me subdue it?)

‘You don’t come out yet.’

(……Oh my, yet?)

It’s not over.

Because I’m not complacent enough to be vigilant with this.

One of the assailants pierced through the goalpost staggers to his feet.

“It would be better not to move.”

“… … of.”

“what?”

The guy mumbles something. My ears barely catch the word looming.

obviously that

“Imperial malice… … seed… … get rid of… … .”

A sense of déjà vu overlapped in the memories in my head and a faint muttering in my ears.

At the same time, the guy takes something out of his bosom and throws it.

Artifact of polyhedron.

It falls between me and Elcia and breaks too easily.

“This?!”

“… … Was it this too?”

A bizarre flow of mana released while breaking.

The moment I understood the meaning, Elcia was shocked as if she was confused.

A flash of light from that fragment engulfs us.

trap.

It means that I never dreamed of killing myself on this spot from the beginning.
