“It’s a bit complicated, but the liquid metal that has been magically arranged through the formula I mentioned earlier is in a state where it can engrave the Madojin!

So, do you have any questions here?”

“But liquid metal with strong fluidity won’t be able to maintain the form of madozin, right?

Is there a magical basis for how that is possible?”

“Professor Eloise, who advised me on that issue, helped me a lot.

The magic engraving was not processed through physical form, but through magical action!

Even if it loses its shape, the Madojin will have the ability to maintain most of its characteristics!”

“Hmm… That means…

Wouldn’t this be a technology in the field of magic rather than liquid metal itself?

It would be better to call it fusion magicology…”

Eyes filled with disappointment and doubt at the reality of the expected technology.

However, without giving in to that, she showed a gentle smile on her lips, opened the box prepared on the table next to her, and took out two beakers from it.

“I prepared it because I thought you might see it that way.

This is an ordinary liquid metal, mercury.

If you look at it, if you go through the same process here… ”

Everyone’s attention was focused on a mage waiting next to her raising his hand and casting the magic spell he had prepared.

Unlike the beaker on one side, which started to move even though the light eventually disappeared.

“Ho… It’s not processed…

I think there is a difference between them.

It sounds like it’s probably an alloy mixed in a special ratio.”

Seeing that the contents on the other side were not moving at all, the scholars each expressed surprise and stared intently at the beaker.

Using that as the final blow, the girl, with her signature bright smile, seemed to be driving a wedge in, appealing to the differentiation of her research.

“Just do as I say!

If I had simply received help from magic, maybe I wouldn’t have been able to submit my work?

Because magical engraving is only possible with alloys mixed in a specific ratio.

Based on that, you can think of liquid metal processing as possible!!”

“If that’s the case, there’s no room for argument anymore.

It must be a formula created through countless failures and challenges.

It is a truly great talent.”

As the room filled with applause for one starter, Karla smiled brightly and bowed her head as she gave her final greeting.

After a while, there was a large shadow coming towards Carla, who was finishing her presentation and leaving behind the stage to clean up after herself.

“Thank you for your hard work, Carla.”

“Brother! How was it?”

“Of course it was the best.

Your eyes widened.

Whose research is this and why are you so suspicious?”

“It is said that doubt is the key to finding the clue to creation!!”

“Of course, that’s true, but…

There is nothing but perfection in Carla’s research.

cancer! Not like that!”

As Antonio, who was as sissy as always, stroked her head, Carla smiled brightly and accepted the pleasant touch.

But perhaps that touch contained a bit of regret.

Carla seemed to blink and close her mouth at the sight of the hand being withdrawn and the voice being raised.

“But is it okay?

In some ways, this is a very valuable opportunity.

I’m worried that I might blow it up.”

“It’s not like that… ”

“Carla… ”

Despite Antonio’s worried question, Carla’s expression did not change at all and she just smiled.

“Your brother is here too, right?

Because I just want to do that… !!”

In the end, Antonio could only nod his head in response to Carla’s confident answer.

“Yes. Then I will convince my parents.

If your intentions are this clear, I’m sure you will understand.”

Carla, who turned and waved at Antonio as he left, looked at the stage where the voice amplified by the loudspeaker magic tool was heard, and gently took a deep breath.

“Because I still like it better here… ”

The next day after the successful announcement that Warmhausen’s envoys visited.

Carla was about to go back to her dormitory after finishing her classes in the engineering building early and staying in the studio for a long time to prepare for her presentation.

“Well, I just found it.”

“Huh? Brother?

Why all of a sudden… Hehe!!”

Antonio appeared in front of her and immediately picked her up and took her to his home and workshop.

“Brother! Please explain!!”

“I already know what choice you made.

I was planning to hear about what to do next.”

“In the future… … ”

“To be honest, I was able to contact my parents yesterday.

But it looks like you were angry about your choice this time.

Your parents will know that this decision is entirely up to you.

But whether you can take responsibility for your own choices is a separate question.”

After sitting Carla on the sofa, Antonio pulls a chair across from her and sits down in front of her.

“I didn’t think it would be like this either.

I think your level of heartache is quite severe.

It seems like they are planning to cut off all support except for education expenses.

I wonder if you have any solutions in mind for that.”

In response to Antonio’s question, Carla’s voice trembled as she trailed off, and she soon seemed to slowly lower her eyes.

First of all, in order to understand the sudden current situation, we need to hear how the situation came to this point.

To put it simply, Carla flatly refused admission to the Mechanical Engineering Academy offered by her home country of Warmhausen.

It was an added bonus that I had to turn down a rather luxurious offer, including a scholarship and partial research funds.

What is Mechanical Engineering Academy?

It is the center of engineering research in Warmhausen.

Various talented individuals peruse the engineering journals that come out every day, establish theories, develop and publish new technologies.

In a sense, it was a land of opportunity for alchemists and engineers, where they could access engineering technology that was superior to that of the Academy of Saint Plancyna.

If the St. Plancina Academy is loved as a study abroad destination as a treasure trove of comprehensive knowledge of the three countries inhabited by humans, the Mechanical Engineering Academy itself is a training ground where engineers from the home country can hone their capabilities to the limit. .

So, of course, everyone will understand that one’s opinion is the most important, but there are bound to be people who see this and feel frustrated that they are not able to seize the opportunity.

In this case, her parents were probably such a case.

“The dormitory fee is included in the education fee, so housing will not be a problem.

However, for other living expenses, this month is the last month.

I want to help if possible, but it’s not like I don’t understand how my parents feel.”

The Sterben family was always a harmonious family, and their parents cared for their daughter Carla as much as their eldest son Antonio.

However, the feelings of her parents who were disappointed that their daughter Carla missed this ‘opportunity’ may have been inevitable.

At least Antonio was confident that his parents, even if they were heartbroken for a moment, would soon understand his daughter’s choice again, but at least that was not what Carla needed right now.

As the older brother of my precious little sister, of course I am always overprotective.

If I were to be specific, I would like to immediately take my child out of the dormitory, feed him only healthy and delicious food three times a day, and stay right next to him to help him with his studies.

Antonio also knew that he could not survive in this harsh world that way, so he was treating his sister in front of him as an engineer and alchemist.

“Have you thought about what to do?”

“… … ”

Carla suddenly felt fearful of her parents’ intention to cut off overall support, starting with living expenses, except for academy tuition.

In the end, Antonio looked down at Carla, who was groaning and unable to say anything, and fell silent for a moment, then clapped his hands together and continued to say what he had been thinking about to her.

“You have to show that you can do it.

For the time being, you’ll have to do it on your own.

Find a sponsor, Carla.”

“Spawn… ?”

.

.

.

“They say to find a spawn…

I’m not sure what to do… ”

“Yes… ? Spawn… … ?

Did Carla’s brother really say that…? ?”

“Huh? But?”

“Boo… It’s unclean… !! Without affection… !!

Just coveting your body for money… !!”

“Yui? What is that? Are you misunderstanding something?

Sponsor is an abbreviation for sponsor.

I’m looking for someone who sees the potential of my abilities and supports me.”

In response to Yui’s fussing reaction, Carla, who was sitting next to her on the bedside, blinked her eyes as if it was strange and continued explaining to Yui.

“Hmm… ! ah… I knew it… !!

Carla must have misheard me!”

That’s true, but what should I do?

Karla nodded her head as if to say something to Yui, then proceeded to tell Yui what her worries were.

“Ugh… Yes… anyway… !!

They say we’ll have to find the spawn…

Are there a few places that your brother recommended?

I told them to go there and try to persuade the sponsor.”

“Then shouldn’t that be the way to do it?”

“Fact… Because they all come from the families of my brother’s friends… ”

It turns out that Antonio wasn’t able to completely stop worrying about his younger brother in the end, and that he had chosen in advance those he knew that he could trust.

In fact, what Yui said was valid to some extent. If you dig deeper into the sponsors, there were also sometimes dirty relationships involving money.

It’s like the relationship between Serkhov and Verdi, who are now a representative cockroach couple in the den, no less than a lovebird couple.

Instead of being sponsored and provided with tuition or other support funds to attend the academy, there were quite a few cases where female students were reduced to being sex toys for wealthy nobles or rich people.

Rather, it’s a shame that the Serkov and Verdi couple had pure love(?) at the end, and the treatment Verdi was treated from the beginning was not only an emotional trash can, but also a convenient semen receptacle.

However, unlike the two couples who later became like-minded and became happy together.

The case was different for some commoner female students who threw away their bodies and could not produce output equivalent to those who attended the academy.

As soon as they graduated, they either became secret confidants of noble families, or their economic sense was stuck in the mud because of the amount of money they could earn just by earning money with their bodies.

Not only was it not enough to not be able to use what she had learned as a job, she gradually fell into the abyss, and in the end, there were cases where she became a prostitute tech tree who knew nothing else than to sell her body.

So, Antonio probably also wanted to provide Carla with as safe a method as possible without being discovered by her parents.

The places recommended by Antonio are mostly noble families belonging to people who are friendly to Antonio, and people who have received an implicit request long ago and are prepared to treat Carla well as long as she comes.

So, if we just keep going like this and pretend to persuade her, in reality, Karla will be able to graduate after a normal life at the academy without having to worry about anything from then on.

Yui, who seemed to know the reason why Karla seemed to be hesitating, smiled faintly and walked closer to Karla’s side, stroking her hips, and hugged her side tightly.

“So you want to do it right if possible?”

“Hehe… I know I’m in a bad position, but…

Still, you can’t just ignore it, right?

There is such a thing as pride as an alchemist!!”

Hearing Carla’s determination clenching her cute fists, Yui let out a small laugh and buried her face in her shoulder.

Then, Yui suddenly became curious about Carla’s thoughts.

“But I have a question, Carla.

Why on earth did you deny me admission to the Mechanical Engineering Academy?

It’s also a good story for Carla…

In fact, if you did just that, you wouldn’t have to worry about this… … ”

Maybe it was because it was a very fundamental question.

Karla appeared to be at a loss for words, as if she had never thought of asking such a question before.

“Ah… that… You know… … ?”

“What is it? Come on, tell me… !”

Looking at Karla like that, Yui thought that if she knew, maybe Karla had some great plan, and watched Karla’s lips move with a pounding heart.

However, Yui seemed to think for a moment and then heard Carla’s voice lightly continuing to speak, and Yui opened her mouth slightly and made a blank expression.

“But, Yui is here, right?

I want to graduate with Yui?”

And Yui thought.

Your best friend may be a friend who is more reckless than you expect.

“Hehe!! After all, Carla is an idiot.

I’m suffering because of that…

Ahahaha!! Ahhh!!”

In “… ? Yui, did you want to break up with me?

too bad… !! I stayed because I wanted to be with Yui!!

Don’t laugh!!! I won’t talk to Yui anymore!!”

“Really?”

“Really!!”

“Hmm? Did you answer?”

“Eeee!!”

But even more so, he is a very precious person to me.

While the two girls were talking and smiling brightly, something stirring inside one of the girls was quietly listening to their story.

Of course, it was only natural that the creature’s four pairs of eyes were sparkling, as if it had heard something interesting.
