Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist?

Dante had turned over the position of head of House Sylphide to Darphy, and had chosen to retire to the Sanctuary.

I knew Etoile-chan was cute, but was it enough for him to retire?

As expected, Takumi found it stifling living under the same roof as me, and more so with Dante.

Regrettably…… while I truly wished to live with Etoile-chan, I had to have a house prepared for Dante and I.

But there are some things I would not yield.

First, it must be close to Takumi-kun and everyone’s house.

After all, it would be a troublesome to go there every day if it was far.

I went with Takumi-kun to the location of where Dante’s and my house would be built.

There, it was a series of surprises, even for an elf with profound knowledge of magic such as myself.

Firstly, the Great Spirit Dryas-sama, who could normally be encounter here, had moved the vegetation that were already firmly established in the soil.

This should have been a spell that we elves were familiar with, but that was nothing in comparison to what Dryas-sama, a Great Spirit, had done.

That aside, was Takumi-kun able to employ Dryas-sama conveniently like that?

As I was thinking about it, I heard Takumi-kun speak in a casual tone.

「Okay, I’ll prepare the soil first.」

When Takumi-kun said that, a frightful torrent of magic power activated alongside the invocation of Earth Magic, and in the blink of an eye, the ground beneath us flattened.

It should have been an enormous amount of magic power, and yet I felt no exhaustion coming from Takumi. For Takumi-kun, was this no different from illumination or fire-starting magic?

Leaving me in confusion, Takumi-kun continued to work as though nothing happened.

「Like this, I guess? I will build it in one go, so please make the small adjustments after that.」

「Eh, yes……」

I have no idea where he took it from, but he piled up a copious amount of materials.

I have no idea what materials such as stone and sand would be used for, but could that be ash? Aside from that, a large amount of wood…… could that be Treant Wood? That’s ultra-high grade wood, isn’t it?

Eh, eh, what is he doing? I heard that Takumi-kun built his and Princess Mimir’s houses, but how is he planning on building a house from a mountain of materials?

Unaware of my bewilderment, Takumi-kun invoked a magic spell like normal.

「『Transmute』!」

A magic circle far bigger than anything I had ever seen had inscribed itself onto the ground with light from magic power, then it enveloped the materials, and in the next instant, standing before me was a completed mansion.

Isn’t this far more splendid than the mansion in our territory?

Moreover, was that alchemy?

Even though he used a remarkable amount of magic power even for an elf like me, Takumi-kun still showed no signs of exhaustion. Just how much magic power does he possess in that body of his?

And was alchemy used like that?n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

A building had been completed in an instant, but that was not the Alchemy that I knew. If I remember correctly, Alchemy was the magic used to synthesize potions and transmute metals, wasn’t it?

I’ve heard that the buildings and the church were built by Takumi using magic, but what the world is alchemy?

After that, when Dryas-sama, who returned, had used her power, lawn grass grew over the garden and ivy had creeped onto the walls of the mansion right before my very eyes.

「Ohh! That’s perfect, Dryas.」

「Right? You can praise me more~」

「…………」

Really, this situation was just beyond words at this point.

Now that I think about it, I heard that Sophia had gotten far more powerful compared to the past. Fifty years ago, she should have already been one of the most powerful people in the Chivalric Order, and in these past few years, she had grown many fold. Which means, Takumi-kun was also as strong, isn’t he? Still, it doesn’t feel like the magic power of a Human……

As I was immersed in this sea of thought, Takumi-kun’s voice pulled me back to reality.

「Now then, Freesia-san, let’s check the inside.」

「……y-yes, You’re right.」

「Then this Oneechan will be having tea at Takumi-chan’s house, okay~」

「Yeah, thanks Dryas.」

I entered the completed house at Takumi-kun’s suggestion.

Takumi-kun checked the interior while installing lighting fixtures.

「With the flick of a single switch, the lighting magic devices can be turned on.」

「Ah- i-is that so?」

Takumi-kun explained how to use every single magic device in the living room, dining room, and other rooms. Just like at his house, the corridors, toilets, and bathrooms were installed with illuminating magic devices. Obviously, the toilets were also magic devices. The bathroom also seemed to have a magic device for hot water.

「Ah, oh yeah. The kitchen needs a Refridgerator MD. And a Stove Range MD.」

「R-right. Having those would be very handy.」

In Takumi-kun’s mansion, the maids had practically done everything for me, so I will need to ask how to to use these magic devices.

All things considered, it seems my son-in-law really did make all of these magic devices.

Well done, Sophia.
