A tall man with thick black hair emerged from the icy pool. Cold droplets fell from the tips of his hair while his exhausted gaze looked around.
"How long have I been asleep...?" Wain muttered as he headed toward the shore, there were his things.
Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.
Since Wain dressed, the ground shook as a massive creature approached him. It was a huge snow beast with a ferocious look.
"Boss... You're finally awake." The beast spoke in a slow voice.
"Yeah." Wain nodded, "You are a big guy, aren't you? Did Elegan send you here?"
Beast nodded.
"Good. How much sleep did I get?" Wain asked while adjusting his collar.
"I'm not sure exactly... but it's been over thirty days since Elegan brought you here." Beast muttered.
"Thirty days..." Wain muttered as his eyes widened, "Damn... I should definitely see Gisle and the others. Especially Eva... I haven't seen them in four whole months."
"Boss, is everything okay?" Beast asked.
"Yeah. Thanks for looking out for me." Wain said before leaving.
Wain headed for the waterfall, he had been gone for a month, so he hoped that Lui Bu and Edena had already found it uses for their new knowledge.
"Damn... There's that door again... Why didn't Edena give me the key?" Wain shook his head as he approached the massive iron gate.
There was a crackling sound.
Wain grabbed the edges and slowly opened them. The gate should have opened after entering the password, so Wain's actions went against the system.
Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.
The whole hill shook as dust particles fell from the ceiling that fell on Lui Bu and Edena.
"What's going on?" Lui Bu muttered with a confused look.
"Damn... someone opened the door." Edena said as he bit his lip.
"Hm? Who? Frigus?" Lui Bu raised an eyebrow.
"No. Though it was difficult, I taught him how to enter the password. It's someone else, fuck... It's Wain." Edena muttered as she ran toward the entrance.
"What? Wain? Has he finally woken up?! Cool!" Lui Bu exclaimed with a happy look and followed her.
They were on the lower floor, so they had to climb the high stairs to reach the entrance.
As Edena reached the top, she bumped into something, it was as hard as steel, so she lost her balance and fell down.
However, suddenly something grabbed her arm and pulled her against it.
"Well, well, you should be more careful. It wouldn't be good for my alchemist to get hurt from falling down the stairs." Wain muttered with a slight smile on his face.
"Wain! When did you wake up?" Edena asked with a dazed look.
"Just now. I slept quite a long time, so I hope you've already found a use for my gift, right?" Wain asked in a calm voice.
"Yes. The first few days, we were puzzled as the information was too much to understand at once, but it's incredible. Where did you get this knowledge?" Edena asked with a twinkle in her eye as she wanted to learn as much as she could about alchemy.
"Consider it just a lucky acquaintance, but I can hardly give you something like this again. What I gave you is all that was in the library." Wain muttered as he waved his hand.
"I think that's enough." Lui Bu said while approaching them, "Wain, would you like to see one of our experiments? You made us stop at the most interesting one."
"Experiment?" Wain said with a sly smile, "Sure, from the looks of it, it'll be something unique."
"No spoilers!" Edena said in a stern voice while waving her finger.
"If you say so." Wain shrugged and headed downstairs.
They went down to the lower floor and entered a spacious room that looked like a modern laboratory.
There was a large, bloody magic circle in the center of which stood a regular green goblin that was some of the weakest monsters in Wain's Void.
"Well, you're finally back. I'm tired of waiting for you!" There was a disgruntled voice as a skeleton in a long white robe emerged from the shadows.
"Sarras? What are you doing here?" Wain asked with a confused look as he tilted his head.
"Wain?! Are you awake?! Why am I always the last to know?!" Sarras exclaimed with his arms out in front of him.
"You're not last, you're third. Okay, what are you going to do about this Goblin? From the looks of it, he's not exactly ready to experiment." Wain muttered while looking at the Goblin that trembled with fear.
"I'm fine..." The Goblin muttered, "Mr. Lui Bu and Miss Edena explained everything to me, so I'm just a little worried."
'Well, maybe you're worried, but I can certainly see the fear.' Wain muttered inwardly as he sighed.
"Kids, are you ready to get started?" Sarras pronounced as he looked at Lui Bu and Edena.
"Yes." Edena nodded, "You start first, then we'll do the rest."
"Okay." Sarras waved his hand and walked over to the magic circle, "You're lucky that I, unlike the other Lichs, actively use blood magic. Don't disappoint me!"
Sarras grabbed his staff with both hands, released energy, and slammed it into the ground.
The scarlet crystal on the staff glowed brightly as a red wave of energy departed from it that lit up the magic circle.
The seals on the magic circle sparkled as dark and red streams of energy came out of them that penetrated the Goblin.
'Oh, is Sarras really doing the same thing to all his monsters?' Wain inwardly muttered with a pensive look.
'Huh, your Lich is pretty capable. You're really lucky.' Gladius muttered in a joking manner.
Crackle.
A bone-cracking sound was attended from the Goblin as his face contorted in eerie pain.
"Be patient! I damn well make you stronger!" Sarras uttered in a stern voice.
The Goblin answered nothing as he tried to remain conscious. His body was changing as his muscles got bigger, his skin darker, and his legs longer.
"Great. Now it's our turn." Edena said as a red potion appeared in her hand.
