The Frontier Alchemist ~ I Can’t Go Back to That Job After You Made My Budget Zero

even give me enough time to really go crazy.”

She says with a wry smile.

“One question! Where are the non-combatants?”

“In the food storeroom.”

I see.
If the enemy is attacking from the sky, the underground food storeroom is a logical choice.

“Understood! I’ll begin.”

“Got it Master Rust! Roa, Ahri! Take a little break!”

I can see Roa and Ahri coming this way through the corner of my eye, and take out scrolls.

“《Activate》, 《Activate》, 《Activate》… 《Activate》.”

After taking out nine scrolls and activating them, they hover in the air while moving around me in a circle.
The magic elements in them leave a shining trail for a second as they move.

“Pretty.”

“He’s activating so many at once…”

“I’m sure Rust is just getting started.”

Those three are just enjoying the show at this point.

“《Manifest》 Rose.”

I say with an awkward smile, and Rose’s thorny vines burst out of the nine 《Manifest》 scrolls.

“What’s that?”

“Rose’s vines?”

“Hou, this is great.”

Now this is a practical use of the 《Manifest》 scroll.
I used 《Return》 on only a part of an already summoned transmuted beast, and manifest it with scrolls somewhere else via a stand-by space.

In the meantime, Rose wraps its thorny vines around the sky salmon in the square.
They are cut apart by the thorns one after the other and dragged into the scrolls.

Thanks to Rose’s effective disposal, the square is quickly free of sky salmon, and I advance to the next stage.

“It’s time to exterminate.
Scrolls, disperse.”

The nine scrolls fly away to different parts of the camp, with Rose’s vines still coming out of them.
