Chapter 5

Neutralizer… To begin with, the neutralizer.

“Uh!”

Even when the smoke was dangerous, it was too dangerous.

Chryselua took off her coat earlier than overlaying the supplies that had damaged and smoked. It was a short lived measure to stop the smoke from spreading additional. Then, with trembling fingers, she started to make an antidote.

Regardless of how helpful it was, utilizing drugs meant utilizing the toxicity of the fabric in the long run. As a way to cope with poisonous substances, she all the time had cleansing in thoughts.

Though she made a silly mistake this time, it was lucky that she stored these basic items. She didn’t know what uncomfortable side effects there have been, however she needed to neutralize the consequences that made her physique so sizzling.

“Uht, huuht…”

Her fingers have been nonetheless shaking, and due to that, she couldn’t even make it work delicately. Chryselua dabbled in widespread reagents and antidotes generally used to suppress poisons.

Conflict!

The subsequent second, her hand slipped and a number of other reagent bottles spilled to the bottom. A bitter scent wafted up together with the shallow wind.

“Huugh…!”

The wind swept on her pores and skin, inflicting goosebumps to rise throughout his physique. Listening to Chryselua’s groans, Naskan was very bowled over.

“…Twi, Twilight? Are you okay, huh? Reply me!”

Bang, bang!

He stored knocking on the door. Seeing that he didn’t break down the door straight away, Naskan appeared to have grown up fairly a bit from his travels. Nevertheless, his mood was nonetheless the identical and he couldn’t simply knock on the door and attempt to drive it open.

“Are you okay?!”

“Please, b-be quiet!”

“No… why? Open the door!”

The door to Chryselua’s lab was magically double-secured, so nobody would be capable of open it until he blew the door utterly.

“Twilight!”

Oh, actually! Why would she deliver him into the lab? She can be humiliated if she confirmed herself like this to others.

“I-I’m fantastic, hu-uht…”

“…Twilight?”

The horrible drugs was making her voice unusual.

Even when she mentioned it was okay, it wasn’t a good voice, and her tongue was twisted so it was tough to talk now. Chryselua thought it might be higher to make the neutralizer sooner than to elucidate her scenario to Naskan.

“Haa… hauh…”

Rattle!

“Chris!”

On the thought, she gritted her enamel and adjusted the medication with ten instances extra focus than typical although as a result of it was a drug that had not been correctly purified, its efficacy can be diminished.

Nonetheless, it was vital to get out of the present scenario.

‘Anyway, why is his voice so good? What a wealthy…bas…’

When the medication was accomplished to some extent, Chryselua out of the blue realized one thing and chewed her lips.

“Chris, are you okay? Huh?”

Listening to Naskan’s deep, low-pitched, masculine voice, she had been licking her lips the entire time. She briefly imagined the tall, thick physique she had briefly seen earlier than she got here to the lab… Simply imagining it, her physique twisted in a dizzying feeling.

Loopy… loopy.

‘What’s this? What’s all this?’

It was due to the unknown drug, however nonetheless, it was surprising to consider Naskan that manner for a second.

Chryselua tried to calm her trembling fingers and completed the neutralizer. As quickly as she confirmed that it was all made, she gulped it down in a rush. Whereas it wasn’t even chilly, the sensation of the liquid taking place her throat was clear.

“Haaa…”

It was carried out.

It will have been lengthy earlier than the medication kicked in, however that alone relieved the strain, and Chryselua slid right down to the ground. Now, she needed to ventilate and cope with the supplies that have been quickly coated. She didn’t know if she must keep up all night time to do all of this.

On the similar time, she was pondering of speaking concerning the outdated days whereas having a drink with Naskan within the night, however the plan utterly went awry.

“Twilight! Chris! Hey, Chryselua…!”

She was solely in a position to converse correctly solely when the drug that had risen as much as her mouth was relieved. Exhibiting his nonetheless sizzling mood, Naskan continued to make noise exterior the door, unaware of others’ situation.

“What are you being so noisy about?”

“What’s occurring?”

Oh, my God. As Naskan screamed like that, it appeared that each one the opposite folks got here dashing in.

“Why are you right here?”

“That’s what I wish to ask, Naskandeolux.”

“It’s not your small business, so get out of right here.”

“You shouldn’t have made a fuss.”

She heard somebody speaking exterior as if aggravated by Naskan, whether or not or not they knew about her circumstances.

“Don’t struggle, you two. What the hell is happening?”

“…The child inside appears to have collapsed whereas working, however the door gained’t open.”

“You imply this individual continues to be working?”

“It have to be due to the preparations for the ceremony as a result of it’s this time of 12 months.”

“What are you speaking about as if you understand her so nicely?”

“I’ve enterprise along with her. What are you doing in Sedition? It’s not even a spot for a idiot such as you to return in playfully.”

“What is that this bastard speaking about? What enterprise do you have got with Chris?”

“I used to be formally invited.”

“Don’t say something humorous!”

“You two, if you’re in a rush to struggle, there’s a formal area within the central sq..”

The boys exterior have been silent for a second. All she might see was two folks arguing out of nowhere, evident at one another.

“…It’s been a very long time since she stopped answering. I’ve to interrupt it right down to open it. That child has been weak since she was younger.”

“Is that so? I’ll do it. The lab door is harmful if outsiders contact it.”

“Please.”

Whiiir.

A pointy cry of magical energy got here. It appeared that they have been pondering of breaking the door.

Oh, this was loopy. Why have been they so impatient? It was made quickly, so the impact can be diminished although she needed to say that she was okay now. Earlier than the ridiculous misunderstanding deepened, Chryselua hurriedly opened her mouth.

“Daybreak, I’m fi…”

“I’m coming in!”

‘Don’t are available, you bastards…!’

Bang! Crash!

They couldn’t hear all of her phrases, and maybe they didn’t even wish to hear, so that they broke down the door and got here inside. What they noticed was Chryselua, who was sitting on the ground moaning, and the sticky environment within the laboratory.

Chryselua’s face flamed up.

It was as a result of Naskan didn’t simply are available alone. The opposite individuals who had been flocking, questioning what the fuss was, had additionally are available collectively.

It was lucky that solely three males got here by way of the door, but it surely was the worst of the worst that one was Naskan and the opposite was Sol Noctis.

She did ask the fairies, together with Sol Noctis, to return to the lab right now. Nevertheless, she didn’t anticipate they’d actually come. Apart from, not solely that the opposite fairies didn’t come, she by no means dreamed that Sol Noctis would come himself.

The opposite one was the one who broke down the door.

Darkish pores and skin and darkish hair… the decadent impression was a typical demon tribe.

Chryselua knew who he was

The Devilkin. Axen Arc.

The devilkin was from the underworld, so that they didn’t run into one another in Sedition although Axen Arc used the identical laboratory constructing, so she remembered passing by and saying hey to him a number of instances. He averted each greeting, so there wasn’t a lot of a optimistic impression on him.

In keeping with the laws, the devilkin of the underworld must be the primary to go away Sedition, so she didn’t know why Axen Arc was right here.

Nonetheless, there was one thing else extra vital than that.

“Clo, shut the door…!”

There was nonetheless a small quantity of smoke left, so it might be a giant deal if it leaked out. It was the identical with the lads right here. Nevertheless, regardless that she informed them to shut the door and go away, they closed the door and entered the laboratory as a substitute.

She didn’t know what to say.

“Twilight, what’s occurring? Huh?”

Naskan approached Chris first. He raised her from the ground and examined her anxiously.

“Daybreak, I informed you to attend a minute…”

“Oh, sorry. I’ll make it easier to clear it.”

Chryselua additionally glanced on the devilkin, who was standing awkwardly subsequent to her.

“Why did you break the door as you please?”

“…I’m sorry. I’ll compensate you.”

‘Thanks for the priority, but it surely’s already a headache.’

It was lucky that the smoke had nearly blown away. Simply in case, she was pondering that she ought to make extra neutralizers and feed these three males as nicely.

At that second…

“…What a messy lab.”

Sol Noctis, who had been quietly watching this aspect, took an curiosity within the coat within the nook of the lab. And he stretched out his hand to it.

“Wait, no!”

‘You’ll be able to’t raise that coat!’
