Chapter 830 Discovery (4K)
Time goes by.
A brand new day has begun.
Serena took out the alchemical cauldron and all the prepared tools, while Akama Reiji looked on in fear.
Just as she said.
She has extensive experience in this area.
At the beginning, she witnessed Amagi Hikaru creating the mirror that allowed him to see his own mind in order to help Yuuki resolve his "split personality".
She saw that handsome "tyrant" with her own eyes back then.
Later, she learned her master's manufacturing method and created her own mirror. It was with this mirror that she discovered Liuli, who had been captured by the Fusion Army. It was with this mirror that she was able to recognize Liuli and then rescue her.
Although many terrible things happened afterward, and Rin and Yugo were also dragged into the not-so-unexpected pursuit by the Fusion Army, the outcome was ultimately good.
Despite being beaten quite a bit.
The master would never actually beat her, but Sister Tierra could create an automatic "discipline machine" in a second and hang her on it in a second.
Since then, she has rarely caused any trouble.
However, it was that incident that led her master and sister Tierra to discover her unique alchemical talent in this area.
Although her alchemical talent can only be described as "existent" compared to genuine alchemical geniuses like Hikaru Amagi and Daitokuji, her alchemical talent in the areas of mind, soul, spirit, and self is quite good.
Therefore, after Serena finishes learning a section of alchemy, Hikaru Amagi will continue to guide and arrange courses for her in this direction.
After all, if you have such talent, you should make use of it so that you can protect yourself when you encounter other brothers and sisters or God in the future.
After two years, Serena felt that she was "very smart" in the field of alchemy, because even problems that seemed very simple to her were stumbling and struggling for Ruri.
In Serena's eyes, Ruri is the smartest person her age!
If she can figure out the problems she couldn't solve on her own, doesn't that mean she's exceptionally smart?
He might even win the Nobel Prize in Alchemy.
These are all jokes.
She heard from her sister Tiera more than once, "How come this child can't understand this?" "Compared to you, this child is like a caveman." "Amagi Hikaru, explain in more detail, how can she understand if you say it like this?"
In fact, she felt that even if her teacher explained things in more detail, she would still learn very slowly.
Even—she could clearly sense that even the almost omnipotent Tiera was very uncomfortable listening to this; many of the things she heard were daunting.
This is alchemy.
What a gifted person can understand instantly may seem more complicated than gibberish to others.
If alchemy could be passed down so easily, it wouldn't have declined so much, and Master Daitokuji wouldn't have had to give up on finding a successor.
Over time.
Only a "power" that is increasingly universal, convenient, and easy to learn can be more easily promoted.
Compared to science and duels, alchemy, as a small branch of the fusion of these two major branches, has been able to continue to be passed down, which, in the eyes of Master Daitokuji, is already very fortunate.
However, Serena did study very hard. After all, her master had already said that he would not teach her anything more in terms of dueling skills—her dueling talent had already been recognized by her master in the WRGP tournament, and all she lacked was the "belief in dueling."
Hikaru Amagi wouldn't force his beliefs on her; he would only let her find them herself. So, the only thing she could spend more time with her master was alchemy, which is why Serena studied it very diligently.
That's why she dared to confidently tell Akama Reiji that she knew alchemy.
more importantly.
After yesterday's duel with the simulated Akama Zero King, she finally understood her "duel belief." Even though her deck and physical strength hadn't changed, she felt like she had become stronger, and everything went much more smoothly for her.
In this situation, she felt that alchemy should be easier.
Of course.
The most, most, most important point is...
Even if we really fail.
My master also lives in this city.
Making an emergency call for help might get you scolded, but it's not enough to kill your own brother.
"Okay, come stand over here first, let me check you out."
Reiji Akaba opened her mouth, but ultimately held back. She pushed up her glasses and managed to stammer out, "Can it really work? Where did you learn alchemy?"
"Of course it's my master—Amagi Hikaru, he's very famous, you know him, right?"
Is Amagi Hikaru-?
Hearing this name, Akama Reiji felt a little bit more at ease.
Previously, the Creator God Sophia had mentioned to him that Amagi Hikaru's alchemy was probably the limit of what living beings could achieve at present, and that no human or even elf could be stronger than him.
The presence of Amagi Kogyo's alchemy somewhat increased their credibility.
Thinking of this, he dragged himself to stand in front of a huge floor-length mirror.
The mirror was taller than him, probably two meters high. Just standing there, Chima Ling'er felt a sense of disorientation.
Serena pressed a button, and the mirrors automatically unfolded, surrounding him from three directions, leaving only his back exposed. The three mirrors simultaneously reflected him, creating three images.
At first, Akama Reiji didn't notice anything wrong, but soon he suddenly realized that the "self" in front of him, the "self" on his left and the "self" on his right were doing different things!
He shuddered, feeling a chill run through his body from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.
The reflection in the mirror in front of him was exactly the same as his movements, only reversed left and right. This was not a problem, since the image in the mirror was originally reversed left and right.
Can--
The reflection in the mirror on the left revealed a very strange smile, chuckling as it sized him up!
Keep in mind, at this very moment, he's adjusting his glasses!
The reflection in the mirror on the right is even more outrageous!
If the one on the left is the darkness that is out in the open, then the one on the right is what terrifies him.
He caught the very beginning perfectly. The reflection was clearly startled and didn't do the same thing as him, but after seeing him push up his glasses, the reflection quickly started to imitate his actions!
One second too slow!
He's so much slower than a real shadow!
Wow...are the symptoms that serious?
Serena watched in amazement.
This is a big job!
She watched for a while, then took out a tablet.
"What is this?"
"It's a portable scanner my master gave me. It's from Sister Tierra... Hey, don't ask so many questions."
Tiera was worried that Serena would be bored and have no one to look after her when she was doing her experiments alone, so she created this device for her. It allows her to directly observe the experimental subjects and her own life status, and it even has an emergency alarm device that connects directly to Tiera's personal data center. Even if Tiera is in the unfinished universe, she can still receive certain information, so that Hikaru Amagi can come back to save Serena's life as soon as possible if Serena really messes around.
This is the power of technology.
Alchemy, which is something that ordinary people can never learn, can be observed directly and intuitively through mechanics and science.
"Strange," Serena muttered. "Something's not right."
"What's strange?"
"Didn't you say that there are two conflicting forces within you? Why does it show three?"
???
Chiba Ling'er was bewildered.
I clearly only injected myself with one dose—
He looked in the mirror.
The mirror in front of me must be a representation of myself.
The one on the left, is that... the result of the Adam Factor I injected yesterday?
What about the right side?
What's going on on the right?
Don't worry too much.
Akama Reiji took two soft breaths, then slowly widened her eyes.
Don't worry too much. Your strategy is correct.
[Zack's creation is not a crisis]
Believe in yourself.
The sounds he had heard countless times before seemed to reappear in his mind at this moment.
During this time, he listened to his own "inner voice," his own "affirmation" of himself, those voices—
Those sounds!!
"It's you!!"
For the first time, Akama Reiji lost his composure. He slammed his fist into the mirror on his right hand and glared fiercely at the figure.
The figure was initially shocked, then gently shook his head. Seeing Akaba Reiji's eyes widen in fury, he then, just like Akaba Reiji, adjusted his glasses: "What does it matter, Akaba Reiji?"
"Who are you!!"
"Uh...?" Serena, standing to the side, was dumbfounded.
"Who am I? You can think of me as your inner voice. Of course, you may have also heard of a name that you are familiar with."
G.O.D.
Chima Reiji's hands were feeling a bit weak.
GOD?!
He—
He had been watching me the whole time!?
Perhaps He is even tempting Himself?
“But, Reiji Akaba, don’t blame everything on me.” GOD Reiji Akaba looked at Reiji Akaba and said calmly, “Think about it carefully, Reiji Akaba.”
Even though I didn't try to persuade you.
Even if I don't guide you in your heart.
Even if I do nothing.
Does that mean what happened today won't happen again?
Can't you even create [Zack]?
You will.
You know very well that you are a person who lacks a sense of security.
Akama Reiji remained silent.
He gritted his teeth, which clicked loudly.
He hates!
But he felt even more powerless!
Because when God said these things and asked him for his thoughts, he couldn't say "no".
because.
Before this "voice of his own mind" appeared, he had never believed Sophia. In fact, he didn't take Sophia's advice to stop conducting the simulated god machine experiments seriously.
He would do this even without hearing God's voice!
Because the flaws of the pendulum dimension are too obvious.
He is not afraid of duels.
He is not afraid of science either.
He was so worried that "supernatural" forces were influencing their world!
Because in their world, there are no countermeasures in this regard!
Although the creator goddess Sophia had passed through the Pendulum Dimension, he was also wary of her. That seemingly lazy goddess was wiser than anyone else, so she also left that world.
and so……
He will definitely do that.
For their own dimension.
“Instead of doing that, you might as well listen to my advice,” said GOD Akaba Reiji. “Alchemy is such an inefficient method that it’s just too slow.”
If you are really that worried, that distressed, that fearful.
If you really want to take responsibility for your actions, make amends for your mistakes, find Zach, or prevent other crises, then you might as well—accept me.
Didn't you also learn that from Sakaki Yusho?
As long as the [selector] doesn't cause any problems.
Then you can use my power at will.
Using the power of GOD?
“Hey, don’t listen to him.” Serena quickly said from the side, “I’ve seen too many guys like him. He says it won’t affect you, but the moment you agree, he’s already set you up.”
She still remembers how the Light of Destruction performed that back then!
Akama Reiji nodded.
He's just blinded by a leaf, not mentally challenged.
Since God could lurk inside his body and tempt him, it means He has other methods. In any case, it's not out of kindness!
If I agree at this point, I'm afraid I'll never have another chance to solve all the problems.
“Ha, there is no such thing as going down a dark path. Akama Reiji, you are indeed better than your father—that is to say, you are more suitable to be the vessel of my power.”
!! ?
Do you think you have any other choice?
what--
Just as Akaba Reiji was wondering what was going on, the image of Akaba Reiji, who had been wearing a strange smile from the beginning, flew out of the mirror on the left, placed his hands on Akaba Reiji's back, and frantically pushed him toward the mirror on the right.
"what!"
Noticing this, Akaba Reiji was shocked and hurriedly shouted, "Serena!"
Seeing this, Serena knew she couldn't hesitate, so she quickly rammed into the mirror, trying to break it open.
However, what should have been a simple and easy task now seemed incredibly difficult. No matter how hard Serena bumped into it, she couldn't change the position of the mirror!
Reiji Akaba's hands were being pulled by GOD Reiji Akaba in the mirror on the right, while the laughing Reiji Akaba on the left was pushing him from behind. Despite trying his best, Reiji Akaba, who was already feeling unwell, kept being pushed to the right.
He was sweating profusely as he searched for a solution to the problem, but—he couldn't do anything!
"asshole!"
Serena finally couldn't take it anymore, grabbed whatever was at hand, and smashed it directly at the mirror.
Bang!
The mirror was smashed to pieces, and Serena felt a little down—this was an alchemical tool she had made herself, an improved mirror that her master had once praised…
She looked up at Chima Ling'er.
The two exchanged a glance, both feeling a sense of relief at having survived a disaster.
however……
Before the two could catch their breath...
Countless dark figures emerged from the shattered mirror!
A surge of dark power erupted from it, swallowing Akama Reiji almost instantly. Serena, too, was sent flying several times by the violent impact, crashing directly into the incredibly hard alchemical cauldron—a truly unfortunate situation!
If she had just bumped into a wall, Serena, with her physical abilities, could have easily regained her balance by dusting off her clothes.
But even the incredibly stubborn Serena was knocked unconscious by the specially crafted alchemical cauldron.
The alchemy detector fell to the ground with a thud, emitting a "buzzing, humming" alarm.
Everything just remained "still" like that.
Serena in a coma, the alarm detector, and Reiji Akaba transformed into a black cocoon!
ten minutes later……
Hikaru Amagi arrived at the scene, glanced at the current situation, and sighed helplessly, "This unlucky thing..."
At this moment, Serena, who had been lying on the ground in a daze, twitched her ears and slowly got up. Rubbing her forehead, she said, "I'm sorry, Master, I... I think I messed up again..."
"...It's not your fault." Hikaru Amagi wouldn't be so harsh as to blame everything on Serena. "I was referring to this kid..."
