Shudmuel could not change Yuriel’s thoughts.

“So you are saying that you are going to have a child. Whatever happens?”

“Whatever happens…?”

“You’re telling Raphlet that you’ll have a child no matter what happens, right?”

Shudmuel, who was in front of Yuriel, who was not hypnotized, said nervously. Yuriel was silent with his cold eyes and tone of voice.

The brightly shining eyes dimmed a little.

Shudmuel immediately recognized her ideal. Yuriel was falling into hypnosis to some extent.

Again, Yuriel’s weakness was Raphlet. As soon as he said that there was a problem with Raphlet, her hard eyes faded.

He dug in without missing a small gap.

If she doesn’t accept erasing the child…. He should plan to use it in another way.

“You don’t want Commander Raphlet to be in trouble. Yes?”

“Yes.”

“Okay, if you are going to have a child, I will help you. Instead….”

Shudmuel leaned close to his desk. He said, focusing Yuriel’s gaze on himself.

“Never tell Commander Raphlet that you are pregnant.”

Yuriel, who had kept her mouth shut for a moment, answered with hazy eyes.

“Yes I will.”

***

The alchemists could not be avoided forever. Yuriel entered the laboratory after the medical officer confirmed that there was no problem with the behavior.

The festival was already over.

Before the event to award the monster core, Yuriel recounted the situation with the monster core before fainting.

One of the reasons the alchemists thought that the monster was trying to protect Yuriel was the existence of the monster core.

Yuriel approached the monster with the core as they instructed, and the monster showed a favor to Yuriel as if it was natural.

It was the same with changing the core.

If it was a core with adequate power, the monster seemed to recognize Yuriel as something to be protected.

After the test, the core was used at the festival as scheduled. They heard that a woman of nobility who had visited the temple was given the core.

Of course, that wasn’t the end. There was also news that the nucleus had been taken away by the Princess.

“Today’s experiment is going to be a bit risky. Don’t get too close to the monster. So far, there has been no response, but there is a possibility that it will suddenly change.”

Baraha approached Yuriel, who was sitting in front of the lab where the monster was crouching, and spoke to her.

Baraha, who appeared with dark circles under his eyes, spoke with a sigh. Perhaps he had not slept, and he looked quite tired.

“Are you tired?”

“A little….”

When Yuriel looked into his face and asked the question, he answered while pressing the corner of his eyes. He closed his eyes tightly because his head was pounding, and then opened them again.

Because the laboratory was the alchemist’s area, the knight was not able to observe the experiment.

Baraha was the one to speak to Yuriel, who was left uneasy among strangers.

She thought Baraha would leave after participating for a few days, but he showed up in all of Yuriel’s experiments with a tired face.

Even though he looked like he was about to go back to his room and collapse right away, he did not vacate the laboratory.

Yuriel thought he was interested in the behavior of the monster, but that thought faded as time passed.

Baraha had no interest in the monster’s movement. During the experiment, Baraha’s gaze did not stray from Yuriel.

It was more suited to say that he was observing Yuriel rather than the monster.

Yuriel looked at Baraha’s face in a fresh way.

He hated annoying things and hated moving regularly, but he seemed to be loyal.

After hearing her muttering that she was afraid because she doesn’t know anyone in the laboratory, he had been watching Yuriel the whole time.

Now that she was used to it, she was not afraid even if she was left alone.

Even the monster was gentle, and the alchemists didn’t harm her either. At first, she was afraid that they might try to implant a monster core on her, just like they did to the other knights.

Come to think of it, she was told that when she was kidnapped, Baraha had found where she had been kidnapped right away. She was a little moved to hear that he had come to find her without returning to the Temple.

Still, he was worried about her as a friend. Then she has to give back as much as she received.

After finishing her thoughts by nodding her head, Yuriel grabbed the hem of Baraha’s robe and said,

“Baraha, if you are tired, go and rest. I’m okay with being alone now. Just go out and tell Lord Raphlet that I’ll be back as soon as the experiment is over.”

“It’s okay, it won’t take long.”

Baraha refused with a single blow.

“Commander Baraha.”

Baraha, who responded bluntly, with the hem of his robe caught, heard a voice calling him and raised his head. Standing next to Yuriel’s chair with his back against the wall, he moved slowly.

As soon as she let go of the hem of his robe, Baraha looked at Yuriel’s hand for a moment. Then he approached the alchemist with a blank expression on his face.

Baraha, who entered among the alchemists, asked in a relaxed tone. With a dull voice

“Why are you calling me?”

“Today’s experiment. Why don’t we proceed without the core altogether?”

It was natural for him to talk down to them while speaking with the alchemists. Baraha, who didn’t seem like that type of person when standing next to Yuriel, frowned.

He raised his voice to the alchemist.

“Does that make sense? The monster is alert to Yuriel whenever the energy contained in the core weakens. Don’t you think it might attack without core weapons?”

“I’m saying that even if she gets attacked, we can adequately block it. There are enough safety devices, so why are you so angry?”

It seemed that it was not in vain to spend a lot more time in the Alchemist Tower than in Albraka.

He was very annoyed, but he was more energetic than usual. Yuriel watched with interest as Baraha argued with the alchemists.

“And that variable has already been checked. When I approached without the monster core, the monster tried to attack me again. That’s enough….”

“Commander Baraha received a core implant. Could it be called an accurate record?”

“I think so too.”

When the alchemists objected, Baraha clenched his teeth.

He wildly ruffled his hair as if the drooping hair on his forehead was bothersome, and he stared at the alchemists.

They exchanged opinions more and more.

“Mriss Yuriel. Go inside.”

“Take this.”

It wasn’t long before consensus was reached. It was decided to put a muzzle on the monster and Yuriel has a gun so she can respond immediately in case of emergency.

As she went into the laboratory with her gun and core, the monster tied to the chain wrinkled the back of its nose.

“Hello, we meet again.”

Although she received the gun, Yuriel was not afraid of the monster. Rather, the alchemists lined up outside were more frightening.

The monster that came close to Yuriel rubbed its head near her waist. The alchemists who were watching from outside showed signs to get closer.

Without hesitation, Yuriel sat down in front of the monster. The monster quickly put its head on her thigh and stretched out.

There was no sign of attacking Yuriel, except for a small growling while gently sweeping the nape of its neck.

It continued to growl from time to time towards the alchemists that were watching them.

[Yuriel, one person will come in and try to attack.]

Yuriel, who was quietly stroking the monster, nodded when she saw the text an alchemist showed her.

It was to check the reaction of the monster, not really to attack. When Yuriel answered, a man came in.

As the man with the sword entered the room, the monster jumped up. The monster pushed Yuriel back and raised its claws.

The man who confirmed the reaction of the monster stopped checking and went inside.

The man who just came in also had a monster core. It was a core with greater power than Yuriel had.

“It doesn’t seem like it only responds to the power of the core?”

“I think it only protects Miss Yuriel. And for a moment, it is kind to people who want to help Yuriel like Commander Baraha.”

“Miss Yuriel is really controlling monsters? Well, there are rumors.”

“If the rumors are true, shouldn’t we dissect Miss Yuriel, not the monster?”

The alchemists, who were passionately conversing about the monster’s magical reaction, shut their mouths at the cool sensation felt on the back of their necks.

Commander Barraha was holding a gun behind them.

The sound of an unloaded gun clicking was heard. They felt a strange intimidation even though he was just touching the gun without saying a word.

The weak alchemists closed their mouths as they looked at the air.

Even though Commander Baraha stayed in the Alchemy Tower, he was not a person who had many interactions with alchemists.

He wandered the Alchemy Tower blankly, occasionally watching from behind the alchemists who were experimenting, and when he did, the alchemists would sweep their hands in goosebumps.

Their conversation must have offended Baraha’s nerves.

The alchemists spoke quickly.

“Now, now we have to change the core and test it. Miss Yuriel, please come out quickly.”

“Miss Yuriel! Come out! Oh, she can’t hear from inside.”

The quick-witted alchemists waved the paper on which they wrote to Yuriel to come back in.

They quickly realized that the person who could stop Baraha was Yuriel.
