Elysion Online ~The Dragonewt and The Summoner~

Kaito and the chairman and vice-chairman at school agreed to join us.

"What kind of enemy would come to Seigo's rescue?"

"Lots of chimeras, a white giant homunculus and golems with armor and weapons. And then there are NPCs that look like assassins and several mysterious last bosses"

Hearing this, the three pull back. More to the point, they were invisible enemies even with my identification skills, but let's not freak them out.

In the morning, I texted my stepsisters and they texted me right away that they would attend. I was told that others would be joining us. The reason for their participation was clear.

『If I don't join, the gap between our levels will widen!』

Well, will it? Anyway, it looks like we will be able to gather forces. All that remains is to finalize the strategy.

After school, I logged in. I talk to Cain-san at the Beastmaster's Guild.

"It's great that you've already found the hideout. But why did you tell me?"

"I heard that the enemy behind this one is after the war between Freetia and Elixir Lapis"

"...I guess that's what happens. So?"

"There is no doubt that the enemy has something bad in mind. And I don't think that something good is directed at the Sandwall Desert"

Cain-san thinks.

"Because they tried to make war on Freetia and Elixir Lapis, didn't they?"

"Yes. If it's my imagination, that's fine. Can you just get ready?"

"Oops. That's not good. It's my job to take responsibility. I'll talk to the Knight Order of Freetia"

"Please do"

Then I go to Einstein-san's lab in Elixir Lapis.

"I'm sorry to bother you. It's me, Takuto"

"Come in"

Mireva let me in. Einstein-san was thinking about something. Would he come up with some great invention or something?

"...Why is it that when a man sees a skirt on the stairs, he looks up..."

Lies! Einstein was a physicist! Operation! This is too much!

"Master, you have a visitor"

"Nu? Oh! Takuto! What's going on?"

"Actually..."

I will explain what has happened so far.

"Well...your fears are justified...wait a minute...Newton, Takuto wants to talk to you. Come here at once"

Then Newton-san came really quickly. I will explain again.

"I understand your story. We'll talk to Edison too and be ready to move with Freetia"

"Thank you"

"We're the ones who should be thanking you. The chimera, the homunculus you mentioned, was definitely the work of an alchemist"

"The armed golem is the work of a researcher"

Huh? So is the chimera. I knew the homunculus was an alchemist...but let's get some info.

"There are two kinds of chimera: those summoned by summoners and those created by alchemists. The one summoned by a summoner is, as you know, no problem"

"Chimeras created by alchemy are forbidden by law. The method of forcibly alchemizing a monster by bio-alchemy can create a variety of chimeras, but it is also forbidden to create chimeras created by alchemy. However, the method can also be used to create a variety of chimeras, which can quickly become violent and deadly"

What!?

"It's obvious when you think about it. If you forcefully attach the brains of multiple monsters and move animals with completely different bodies...it is easy to imagine that their brains would reach their processing limits and they would soon die"

"I have heard that some chimeras rarely adapt to such abnormal conditions. That must be what Takuto saw"

"Wait a minute. Does that mean the summon beast you synthetically summoned is okay?"

They laugh.

"Be relieved. I don't know all the details, but I can tell you this. Synthetic summoning is not just attaching them together, it is magic that creates a summoned beast from scratch"

From scratch? Ah...is that what you mean when you say that summon beasts are combined after they enter the magic circle? I'll ask later. Back to the story.

"The adapted chimera is not an entity that can be controlled by a human in the flesh. Perhaps they are controlled by items"

If that is the case, then if we target the items...we are dealing with a chimera in a runaway state...then it would be easier to defeat it if we avoid the items.

Next, information on homunculus.

"Homunculus is not forbidden by law, but can be created purely through alchemy"

"With an alchemist, you could say they are nearly immortal. Even if you defeat them, they will immediately revive with alchemy. The only drawback is that they only work on simple commands. It's not even close to an automaton"

You're bragging. Does that make you an alchemist target?

Finally, armed golems.

"...Just think what would happen if you arm a golem"

"It's not clear to me how a person who has difficulty moving can be armed all over. I'm sure the researcher who created it was just going along with the idea of using it because it looked cool or because it looked strong"

Eh...isn't that terrible? They don't think the players are involved, do they? I'm quite worried.

But now we have a general plan of action. The first tricky one is the chimera. We have no choice but to defeat it by ourselves. And that's while avoiding items. It is definitely a formidable enemy.

The homunculus is aimed at the alchemist. If you defeat it after that, there will be no problem. The armed golem is the target.

All that remained was to deal with the bandits, rescue the kidnapped children and free the slaves. Then, Einstein-san takes out an item.

Slave Liberation Device: Important Item

An item that emits a special radio wave over a wide area and unlocks the collars of slaves within range.

Yup. What was that first crap? I thought the flow of making these was fine.

"It is a device that emits a radio wave that destroys the collars of slaves over a wide area. If you have a lot of slaves, it would be better to have an item that has a wide range of effects. Take it with you"

Surely it would be pointless if we had to disarm each of them one by one and they blew up their collars in the process. This is a nice item. I thanked Einstein-san for his help.

I'll discuss the bandit with everyone. I bought a charcoal stove and a charcoal grill because I came to Elixir Lapis. No kotatsu....too bad.

Then I went to Liebling to do some production work and make a barrel bomb just in case, then logged out.
