Chapter 22 — The Alchemist Seclusion
Summoned To Another World
「What do you mean by that, Lady Iris?」 Saalin pressed, still concerned about Iris's strange comment.「Nothing important, so don't worry, OK? 」【If I told her why, who knows how she'll react.】「OK, Lady Iris.」
Later At The House...
Iris looked toward the basement door, where Jay had been sealed away for hours.「Seems like he's still busy down here... Well, now, Lena, we can clean your dress without him knowing, OK?」「Yes, Mama... But when will Papa be back, though?」「I don't know, but I hope it's soon.」「Me too.」Saalin gently led the younger girl away.「C'mon, Lena, let's go to our room.」「...A little sad... OK. ...Then they left...」Iris sighed, staring at the closed door.「What's keeping you in there so long, Jay?」
A Week Later...
The basement door finally burst open, and Jay emerged, looking exhausted but victorious.「I'm back! Sorry I was away for so long.」Lena ran to him, her eyes shining with pure delight, but she slammed on the brakes right in front of him.「Papa! Err, Papa... ...Covers her nose with her hands... You need a bath.」Jay slumped, his triumphant mood instantly deflated.「That hurt, Princess. ...Then he left...」Saalin watched the scene, utterly fascinated.「Wow, so that's the emotional damage she can give him.」「...Laughs... Yah, you're right.」 Iris confirmed.
30 Minutes Later...
Jay returned, scrubbed clean and radiating energy.「OK, I'm back again, and they're done!」「What are?」 Iris asked, her curiosity finally winning out.「Well, your magic items. I recently discovered cores could also be used as magic stones, but they're too crude. But with my alchemy, I refined them to perfection and used them in the items I made.」「...Curious... Really, Master Jay?」 Saalin asked.「Yah, and these are for you. ...Gives her a bow and 2 bracelets... You see, the bow's frame is made from Mythril, and the string is made from Tyrant Wyvern scales I compressed and remodeled.」Saalin carefully took the smooth, dark, and impossibly strong weapon.「Thank you, Master Jay, but its design is... unique.」「True. The best part is, with a simple jolt back or forward, it will close or open, making it easy to pack away for spy gigs. And it's one hundred times stronger than the strongest bow in this world. It shoots further and faster than other bows, it's lightweight, the shape is for stability, and that scope is used to see through if you want to get a real close look at your target.」
