CHAPTER 16

Sider and the Four versus Core Beno

Ah, alchemy. Considered branch of philosophy by some, a science by others, and an excuse to spend hours in their garden shed away from their wives by a select few husbands.

There was something about playing with chemicals, dangerous materials, and the very essence of life that really thrilled me. I liked to think that I was an alchemist in my past life. After all, there was a reason I had been selected for resurrection as a core. It’s not as if corpses are rare; if being dead was the only core prerequisite, the academy could find a hundred candidates in the various battlefields and hospitals scattered around Xynnar. No, there was a reason I was chosen, and alchemy may well have been it.

It was in the alchemy chamber that I waited for Karson to join me, and while I was alone, I checked my core vision to see how the poison chamber situation was progressing.

Damn it.

The werewolves were ripping the walls to pieces, and it wouldn’t be long until they broke through into the tunnels. If that happened, things would be way too unpredictable. At least if I had them trapped then I could enact a plan.

“Dark Magnificence,” wheezed Karson, who entered the alchemy room and was struggling under the strain of the silver ores in his arms. “Here…I am, having just…carried all our…silver across the…dungeon. Just a normal, safe workplace thing to do. My back’s going to be a mess after this.”

“Put four ores within the red runemarks,” I said, nodding at the marking on the alchemy chamber floor. “Leave the rest on the ground.”

With the silver ores set within the runemarks, the alchemy chamber whirred to life. A second later, after a flash of light and a smell like burning magnesium, the silver appeared in the blue runemarks adjacent to the red ones.

Now, the silver was stripped back to its essence, presenting as a pile of powder.
