Two months swiftly elapsed following Vale’s encounter with Professor Gale’s squad in a small town situated in the eastern region of the Millton Kingdom.
Throughout this period, Denise had fully dedicated herself to their fortress, and she even left her Arcanist Squad to show her sincerity.
She had also easily familiarized herself with the fortress because of her abilities and befriended everyone with her natural charm.
Despite not having attended the Vermont Academy, she had diligently honed her skills in Dark Alchemy under the tutelage of Heinz, a revered Alchemist affiliated with the Dark Arts Faction.
With her expertise in Alchemy surpassing that of Chad and Lisa, Vale recommended her to assist Magnus in various alchemical matters.
Although Denise’s expertise predominantly centered on Dark Alchemy, her comprehensive understanding of the craft was notable, having apprenticed as an alchemist for several years.
“Ugh… Lotus, why did you not wake me up?” Denise muttered as the first rays of daylight gently filtered through her window. 𝘦.𝘤𝘰𝑚
She awoke to the soft glow and asked Lotus who was hiding somewhere in her room. She recalled that she asked her Dark Spirit to wake her up before the sun rises up.
“You needed rest. You’ve been working nonstop over the past few days. You can’t die from overworking, or I’ll return to the Spirit World.” Lotus answered casually.
Denise could only nod at this as ready to embrace the day’s alchemical endeavors. With her striking long black and white hair, she embarked on her daily routine within the fortress as an esteemed Alchemist.
After washing her face, she dressed in her intricate alchemist’s attire, each piece meticulously adorned with runic symbols that would help her move in precision, which was extremely required in her line of work.
Of course, this attire was specifically made by Magnus, so she could work better in the laboratory.
Descending to the castle’s kitchen, the tantalizing aroma of freshly brewed coffee and hearty sustenance greeted her.
‘Did Vale prepare our breakfast this time?’ Denise mused since Vale would always drink coffee in the morning. 𝘪𝑎.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Well, they also got used to it over the past few weeks, so all of them are now drinking coffee from time to time whenever Vale prepares them to warm themselves in the morning.
After getting into the kitchen, she realized that the white lady was also having a meal.
Needless to say, it was Miss Faith who seemed to have gotten paler.
“Good morning…” Denise greeted. She felt uncomfortable whenever she saw Faith staring at the spot where Lotus had hidden herself. Nevertheless, she decided to ignore it since Lotus wasn’t complaining.
“Good morning, Denise…” Faith said as she finished her meal before leaving the kitchen.
Denise also savored a nourishing meal as she invigorated herself for the day ahead.
She was already excited about working since she had recently obtained tremendous success in her work.
Soon, Denise started walking into the complicated hallways of the castle.
As she made her way to the left-wing tower, she found her laboratory and entered it excitedly.
‘I forgot to ask Vale and Magnus why we’re making so many golems… It’s as if we are about to go to war.’ Denise mused as she saw the 5-meter-tall humanoid golems in her laboratory.
She kept forgetting about this question since she would always be busy or too tired to even question what she was doing.
She was also being paid for this work and obtaining various treasures for free, so she felt that it wasn’t too important.
Clink… Clink… Clink…
One of the golems that was inscribed as her own started moving. This golem was made of wood, steel, runic items, various crystals, and a mysterious core that only Magnus could make.
“Alright! Let’s start making you capable of using Spells!” Denise said as the intricate mechanisms and arcane symbols etched into the golems’ frames beckoned to her, igniting a fervent desire to unlock their enigmatic potential.
***
In the meantime, while Denise was busy working on the golems, Vale and Marquis Morgan just completed their plans.
“To be honest, I’ve been feeling nervous about the plan you suggested. However, I will believe in you and I hope that I will really see such a magnificent sight in the capital tomorrow.” Marquis Morgan said as he looked at Vale seriously.
The fact that Vale would “hire” a dragon to destroy the capitals’ barrier and take the offensive attacks of the Mage Tower situated in the castle, still bothered and worried him.
After all, if the dragon did not appear to act as their vanguard, Marquis Morgan knew that it would be over him. He would no longer be supported by the Neutral Faction, and the Church of the Divine Sorcerer would leave him.
“Please be confident, Marquis Morgan… You will witness a dragon destroying the capital’s barrier, and it will be etched in the history of the kingdom. It would also become the kingdom’s guardian that will bring peace to our land.” Vale said with a bit of exaggeration.
After hearing this much, Marquis Morgan could only nod and wait for tomorrow.
As the Marquis was planning to leave, he suddenly recalled something.
“Right… I forgot to inquire, have you crossed paths with the envoys of the Divine Sorcerer?” inquired Marquis Morgan, under the belief that the Church of the Divine Sorcerer should have already made an appearance. They should’ve tried to recruit Vale and the others into their fold.
“Ahhh…”
It was only now that Vale recalled about them.
“No, they have not approached me yet. Perhaps they are preoccupied with preparations for tomorrow’s war.” He mused, casting a glance toward the Marquis.
“I believe it would be prudent for you to depart as well… If by any chance our strategy has been divulged to the enemies, they might attempt to catch us off guard tomorrow. You should have contingency plans in place just in case.” Vale urged.
“Fear not… I have everything well in hand… I have awaited this moment for many years.” Marquis Morgan declared as his gaze fixated on the window.
‘Hmm?’
Sensing a mystifying and unearthly presence approaching the castle, Vale too discerned their arrival and swiftly guessed their identities…
“They are indeed tardy…” Vale muttered, recognizing the group of individuals as members of the Church of the Divine Sorcerer.
However, because of their imposing manner of arrival, Lisa transformed into a Vampire and blocked their path!
