Chapter 49: Alicia is Shocked!
The laws of physics are completely different in this world. Because magic which should be something beyond physics is also a part of it. That is also the reason laws are defined as well as not defined, because humans have the potential to defy all laws. Because of the vastness of magic and its infinite applications. There is always magic that breaks the current laws.
It's been a week since Luis came back from the city of Almast. These days he spent doing training and reading books.
Fortunately, with the help of expensive elixirs, he managed to cope with it. Otherwise, that hell-like training left no room for other things.
Luis browsed through all the physics laws in this world and then started reading the technical knowledge in this world. Because of his talent, he could easily learn them as well as make adjustments suitable for himself.
He also cleared two more low-level dungeons this week. In simple terms, he had been extremely busy.
And today is the day Luis was looking very forward to. Because yesterday morning, Jack brought him good news that the things he requested had been prepared.
Now at the breakfast table, Ronald, Lumine, and Alicia were looking at Luis, who seemed to be in a good mood.
"What happened, Luis?" Ronald asked curiously.
"It seems he is looking forward to today's training," Lumine said with a cheerful smile.
*Cough*
Luis choked on his food. Alicia hurriedly gave him a glass of water.
*Gulp*
"You shouldn't eat so fast," Lumine reprimanded him with a concerned look.
Luis couldn't help but let out a bitter smile. Ronald and Alicia averted their eyes with no intention of saying anything.
Ronald, who had been silently eating his food, couldn't help but glance at Luis from the corner of his eyes. Last week, when Luis returned from Almast, the report that Jack handed shocked him.
A mine full of resources and it also has a mana vein, which means the energy inside will last many decades or even centuries. Moreover, the purchase cost was so little, almost the price of a small ordinary mountain.
This made him wonder how did Luis do it.
"Luis." He called out.
"Hm?" Luis, who was eating his breakfast, looked at Ronald, wondering what happened.
"How did you do it?"
Ronald finally couldn't hold back his curiosity.
Swallowing his food, Luis asked, "Did what?"
"That 'Mine'. You should know what kind of benefits it's going to bring us. I can't believe someone sold it at such a low price. I want to know how you found that mine. Jack said that even the owner believed that the energy was depleted." Ronald said excitedly.
Lumine looked at Ronald while rolling her eyes. 'Who was the one that said we wouldn't probe into Luis' matters?'
"Oh that," Luis calmly put the spoon down and said, "It's actually simple. Anyone with a discerning eye would have found it."
Ronald knit his brows and continued listening.
"If the energy had depleted, the monsters wouldn't have nested there in the first place."
Luis' words made the three of them widen their eyes in realization.
Yes, monsters need energy to survive and grow stronger. If there is no energy, why would they live there?
"Then why was the mine empty for so many years and new Ores weren't forming?" Ronald asked, then said. "The mana vein in the new passageway was so rich in energy, at least some low-quality Ores should have formed even on the outside."
Luis didn't answer and continued looking at Ronald with serious eyes. Ronald immediately understood it was a serious matter. So, understanding Luis' thoughts, he set up an invisible sound barrier around the four of them.
Alicia didn't find anything wrong, but Lumine's eyes narrowed.
"If there is energy inside the mine and new Ores aren't forming, then there is something absorbing it, right?" Luis paused, then continued. "There is no sighting of such a strong monster which needs so much energy. Then what else can it be?"
"Some rare metal?" Alicia murmured without much thought.
"Bingo!" Luis looked at her, giving a loving smile, to which she shyly lowered her head.
Ignoring their small interaction, Ronald and Lumine continued looking at Luis, waiting for him to continue.
"Now, for the metal that needs to absorb so much energy to form, there can only be one with the best mana conductivity."
As Luis looked at his parents' exaggerated expression, he couldn't help but smile.
"D-Don't tell me, it's-" Ronald said, barely holding back his excitement.
Luis calmly looked at him and then casually said, "Yeah, it's Omni Ore."
Both of them slumped on the chairs and couldn't believe their ears for a while. That's Omni Ore, even they will try their best to find that thing.
"How much?" Lumine asked.
"Around 3 kg." His words were plain, as if this matter was of little significance to him.
But Ronald and Lumine couldn't hold back their excitement.
"Haha, this is great news." Ronald laughed heartily and asked, "So that was your purpose to visit Almast?"
Luis didn't deny it and nodded.
"That means you already plan to make something with it, right?" Ronald asked further.
"Yeah, a weapon," Luis answered.
Ronald nodded and wasn't worried that Luis would waste the material. Moreover, even if he wastes it. That's something Luis owns. He had no say in it.
Luis smiled, thinking he was lucky to have such loving parents. If it was someone else, they might have tried to snatch it from him. But if that were the case, he would have never revealed his secrets to them.
Alicia didn't know about Omni Ore, but from Ronald and Lumine's reaction, she assumed it was something good. She was happy for Luis and didn't care much.
But when she heard Luis was going to make a weapon with it, she couldn't sit still.
"You have a talent for crafting?" She asked in an exaggerated tone.
From what she knows, Luis has a Martial Arts talent which is equal to her. So she assumed it was also an S-grade. Then those spells he casts, which should be something similar to her Magician Talent.
Though she had never seen it, she had heard from servants and Lumine's mouth that Luis is extremely good at shooting. So she assumed it was something related to his third talent.
But what is going on with this talk of making weapons?
"YOU HAVE FOUR TALENTS?!!"
