Chapter 575

I was thinking that if I met Bertus, it would be a conversation, and I knew that I was in a situation where I had to listen to my request.

I chose the option of taking the risk and meeting Bertus in person.

When I meet Bertus, it’s not dangerous because there will be problems with my safety or Bertus’ safety.

The fact that Bertus and I met.

It’s dangerous when someone finds out about it later in some way.

That’s why it wasn’t difficult to get to the truth after meeting and talking with Bertus. But he never thought they would show them what they were doing.

Bertus gave orders to Saviolin Tana.

Evict everyone from the Magic University Research Building for three hours.

I would change my appearance, of course, but it wouldn’t be nice for anyone to see that the emperor had entered the lab with an unknown person.

Saviolin Tana left to deliver the order, and Bertus and I sat talking in the empty dining room until everything was ready.

“Charlotte… … . How are you?”

Bertus’ expression when he asked that was complicated.

They hated each other so much that they tried to kill each other, but at some point Bertus began to feel sorry for Charlotte.

Bertus was supposed to execute Charlotte, but in fact he was calling me.

And I took Charlotte and left.

Bertus wanted to save Charlotte.

“I am in charge of my own work. It will be better than staying in the imperial palace.”

“is it… … .”

Bertus said with a sad expression.

“thanks. Reinhardt.”

Does it mean thank you for showing up to save Charlotte?

It will have that meaning, and it will have other meanings as well.

My relationship with Bertus is very different from the past.

Right now, Bertus was, strictly speaking, in a low-key position.

It’s not like he knows that I’m holding a lot less than myself.

guilty.

He felt so much guilt about me, and he had no choice but to do that because he was still using me.

Upon hearing about Charlotte’s whereabouts, Bertus seemed at least a little relieved.

No more conversations ensued.

Three years is a long time, but in a way, it’s not that long.

However, those who survived during those three years experienced too much.

The public conversation was over, and there were too many stumbling blocks to having a private conversation.

Because you don’t know what will happen in the future.

“About the gate incident… … . Is there anything else I should know?”

I didn’t have much to say in response to Bertus’ question.

“Just do it like now.”

last gate.

That wasn’t Bertus’s business, so that was all I could say.

* * *

When Saviolin Tana returned, all of the emperor’s orders had been carried out.

Everyone left the lab without leaving a single ant cub, and the guards also left their seats.

With Sarkegar’s ring changing his face, he put on a robe and headed to the Magic University Research Building with Bertus.

“I don’t think it would have been possible to sneak in here.”

In the process of entering the underground laboratory, even the security screening gates passed through several layers, so it was not known whether even Sarkegar could have penetrated this system.

“A Dreadfiend might find a way. It might have been a convenient option for you to come to me in person, but it wouldn’t have been the only option.”

Bertus had been holding Sarkegar for about two years.

So I had no choice but to know about the Dreadfiend clan.

“Anna and Cristina suggested it first.”

“… … what?”

I don’t know what that means, but I couldn’t help but ask.

By suggesting it, of course, it would have been clear that I was referring to this thing I was going to check with my own eyes.

“Even if it’s a terrible way, if it helps to end the gate crisis, can I do something like that?”

“Anna and… … . Cristina… … . You proposed first?”

“okay. Louie joined later.”

It was the two of them, not Bertus, who suggested it first.

There are no people who did not change the war, and it is ridiculous to compare the development with the original.

Whether because of terrible things or something else.

Anna and Cristina came up with a way to turn the dead into undead and reintroduce them into battle.

Just like Adelia made the Titans.

no.

Watching Adelia participate in Project Titan, Anna and Cristina may have thought that they should do something too.

The Titans did not exist in the original.

Maybe that titan inspired Anna and Christina, so they thought of ways to contribute to the war in their own way.

“I was worried. for a long time.”

Bertus said as he went down to the underground lab.

“very… … . very long.”

It is to insult the bodies of those who died, the bodies of those who were too precious to die.

Hearing that he had been thinking about it for a long time, he felt how much Bertus struggled until he accepted the job and decided.

In the end, Bertus would have allowed it.

And he would have decided to use even the tombs of the heroes in the imperial mausoleum.

So, I saw

What Bertus was building next to Titan.

“This… … .”

Huge broth pot.

“Is this undead?”

“… … okay.”

There was a clean human body without a single wound.

On the surface, it was absolutely not the body of someone who had died of trauma.

Other ports were no different.

It was not difficult to find the reason why the bodies of those who had no choice but to die from trauma were so clean and intact.

“no way… … . Did you regenerate it?”

“Yes, it is regenerating lost or rotting flesh and muscles.”

It meant that it was not a corpse that almost maintained its original form, but a corpse that had been restored close to its original form.

Such ports were placed all over the underground lab.

“The homunculus is the alchemy that creates life.”

“… … yes.”

“So the homunculus is known as magic that creates something out of nothing. So the probability of failure is high. You can’t make life easy.”

Bertus looked at the corpse of an unknown person with his eyes closed.

“The homunculus is a magic that searches for the truth of life like that. However, we are not curious about the end of homunculus technology, but we need a homunculus that can power up. Then there is no need to create something out of nothing.”

“Is this the one that made Yu out of Yu?”

“okay.”

To be precise, it is to bring life back to what was life.

“It is to make something that no longer functions as life function again. I heard it’s easier than making a real homunculus.”

A homunculus creates a life form that did not exist in the first place, but in this case it is a reconstruction of a known life.

If you know the human structure well, you can make a human being, and the material is already a human being.

It restores organs, flesh, and muscles that have disappeared and have been damaged or rotted by the secret arts of the homunculus.

It is different from the undead.

The undead are moving while dead.

But this is to endow a dead body with something akin to life.

“The dead… … . It sounds like it could be resurrected.”

“That’s not right. I have no intention of researching that far, and it may not be possible. Just because it was returned to its former life form doesn’t mean it was really returned.”

Bertus, I, and Tana walk through the underground laboratory.

The bodies of people unknown to the ship were being restored. It could be the dead of the Allied Forces, people who died after the Gate incident, or heroes of the past who died long ago.

“It takes a long explanation to figure it out. The bodies of the dead are revived with the homunculus’s secret technique, the chimera’s technique attaches the real body to the fake body that should not be intertwined, and it moves with black magic, so that it has power that is almost the same as before, or even superior… … . You can’t call them undead.”

Bertus looks at me.

“The work of making a golem. That’s what you’re doing.”

A living golem, after all.

It contains secret techniques for many fields of magic, and most of them are forbidden, but in the end, the function itself is a living golem.

They make golems from living humans and reintroduce them to the war.

It is also more powerful than when the lion was alive.

“Can a wizard be revived?”

“It’s still in the testing phase, but it turns out to be possible.”

The part that the people of Edina were concerned about. It is certain that it is possible.

“Don’t you think they are priests?”

“… … what?”

“Even priests can be revived. In a state where you can use divine power. I don’t know why I can’t use it.”

At those words, I was at the point where I had nothing more to say about the absurdity of this world.

“okay… … . I knew that the five main gods were not normal.”

Chimera, homunculus, and black magic.

In the end, thanks to the combination of alchemy and black magic, the Empire resurrected the dead body with almost all of its original abilities, and it became possible to use it arbitrarily.

“Do you have an ego?”

“No. It can be difficult if you have I’m just glad I don’t have it.”

A doll that only bears an uncanny resemblance to a human in its original life.

Strictly speaking, I don’t know if it should be called undead or not, but in the end it’s like undead and like golems.

“Not everyone can be revived this way. If the damage is too great, there are cases where regeneration does not proceed, and there are cases where regeneration is successful, but even if you try to control it, it will not budge.”

The success rate is about 70%, Bertus added.

In my opinion, that was an incredibly high number.

“If you fail to control… … . Something very bad is about to happen. Am I too worried?”

Even if the Death Knight is strong, in the end it does not restore the ability of life. However, in this case, it is to restore the ability before life.

If you revive the Sword Master, you get the Sword Master, and if you revive the Archmage, you get the Archmage.

My head broke just thinking about what would happen if they failed to control me.

At my question, Bertus smiled bitterly.

“Reinhardt, it’s a war in which the fate of all beings hangs.”

“… … .”

“You can’t afford not to take that risk, can you?”

It’s a plate that needs to borrow even a cat’s hand.

I have to borrow the cat’s hand, but is there anything I can’t borrow the devil’s hand?

If that devil’s hand rescues me from danger, then nothing else matters.

Bertus’ words made sense.

Will these save us?

Or will it lead us into another abyss?

“however… … . It seems that actual deployment is still impossible. Seeing that there are only things that are being cultivated like this.”

I don’t know what to call these, but seeing as those who should be called finished products are nowhere to be seen, actual deployment seems impossible yet. Does the battlefield change the moment they come out of the port?

“no.”

But at my question, Bertus shook his head.

“It’s already in trial operation.”

“… … what?”

“You saw it too?”

Bertus points up with his finger.

ground.

“Didn’t you think there were too many guards in the temple?”

“… … uh?”

“Wasn’t there an unusually large number of them, especially around here?”

Come to think of it, the security near the magic university was very strict.

A huge number of guards roamed around the magic university.

“If there were a surplus of guards, they would have sent them to a refugee camp or something. How many people are there at the temple, so you can’t imagine putting that many on guard at the magic college?”

In the first place, it was said that most of the guards near the magic university were homunculus undead.

No one will recognize it, but the guards are all wearing helmets.

That’s why you never see their faces.

No one wonders what kind of face is inside the helmet in the first place.

“Once it’s confirmed that he understands the command normally, he’s testing it by sweeping away the monsters outside the ecliptic.”

Only then did I know why Ellen and Heinrich couldn’t find any monsters near the ecliptic.

A subjugation team that wipes out monsters in the outskirts of the ecliptic.

They were resurrected corpses that had nothing to do with the guards in the first place.

The area around the ecliptic was already a place of experimentation to see if it could be operated properly after it had already been resurrected.

The punitive force mission was something that no one could join for completely different reasons in the first place.

“After the winter, we will put them all into the field.”

Field deployment was already in progress.

It is obvious how much power it will exert and how much it will help.

“If only they could end the gate crisis… … . It sounds funny, but we may not need the Allies anymore.”

If war can be waged with only the troops of those who have returned, and if individual forces are superior to those of life, then a large-scale army may not be needed.

The gate debacle may end a little sooner, and no further major sacrifices may be made.

If you do what you shouldn’t do, you can prevent further sacrifice.

It’s such a sweet temptation.

I just fell for making a Death Knight, but Bertus was more tempted.

It is a choice that has no reason not to do it, and the thought that it was necessary does not disappear.

However, it is impossible to predict the extent of the risk.

What happens when those who return get out of control?

I do not know.

But it helps.

And if Bertus was right, the Black Order wasn’t involved either.

So I had to come to the conclusion that no matter what danger this might pose to me later, I had no choice but to wait and see.

Whatever inevitability comes later.

Just as Bertus uses this, I must use this too.

But apart from drawing conclusions, you get another realization.

A corpse restored to its original form.

I think you know what that means.

This restores the dead closer to how they were when they were alive, but not really bringing them back to life.

But in the end, it will move like a living thing.

Christina and Adelia suggested this, and it materialized.

I thought this was because of the titans.

They thought it was something they started because they were stimulated by Titan, and that it was something they started to contribute to the war.

It is not known until after.

But there are definitely things I would have tried.

“Those guys… … . if… … .”

Christina and Anna.

“Didn’t you try to revive Ashir?”

The first classmate who died.

B-4 Ashir.

I don’t know if he started this work to revive him, or if he died while working on it and tried to revive Ashir after that.

obviously would have tried

“… … .”

Bertus didn’t answer.

Because of that silence, they tried to revive Ashir.

And, of course, I couldn’t help but know that I had no choice but to fail.

I don’t know if the restoration was successful or if the restoration also failed.

I didn’t even want to ask.
