Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

Chitty Chitty Chitty .......

I heard birds chirping. Serloitte wakes up suddenly.

Oh no, I fell asleep. He remembers having dinner delivered to him and chatting peacefully, but does not remember the rest of the evening. Perhaps he fell asleep. Now I am sitting exactly where I was when I had dinner. She sat up hurriedly. At that moment, she realizes that her body is wrapped in a blanket. It must have been covered by Mr. Meilius or Mr. Considine.

Embarrassed and apologetic, she wanted to run away right away, but she could not and would not do so. She stood up determinedly and looked for May and Sadie.

They were soon found. She went out onto the balcony and into the garden, where she could see them in the faint light.

At that moment, Serloitte felt a strange emotion. Indeed, it was dawn. The soft rays of the sun were shining overhead. But the house was wrapped in layers of fabric, so that very little light came in and the garden was always dimly lit. Why is it so bright? Just when I was wondering why it was so bright, May and Sadie turned around at the same time in her direction.

"Good morning, ma'am."

"Good morning."

They both had big smiles on their faces. However, their faces showed a hint of fatigue. Serloitte rushed to them, feeling sorry that she was the only one who had rested.

"I'm sorry ......, it was ......."

"No, don't worry about it. No, don't worry about it. Sadie and I both took the day off.

"You've been sick, Serloitte, so you can rest."

They said this with carefree smiles on their faces, but it was clear from their expressions that they had been watching the experiments tirelessly.

"The experiment is ...... the flowers are ...... wa, I'm ...... too."

"Look."

May spins on her heel without cracking a smile. Serloitte looked in the direction of the garden.

The ...... garden was glowing a bright white. It was a strange sight, both eerie and beautiful. Serloitte looked at the scene in a daze.

"That ...... is, the flower is ........."

He finally managed to squeeze out a few words. Considie puts her hand gently on her thin shoulder and speaks to her.

"It's gone, all gone."

"All of the ......?"

"Yes, all of them. All the flowers of friendship are gone.

"Ho...... is it really ......?"

"Yes. My gut is telling me. I don't sense any evil in this garden."

"......"

Tears welled up in Serloitte's eyes. Sidi looked a little flustered at this and continued speaking.

"No,...... it's just my gut feeling. Ask Mei if you're sure you're okay.

"No, I'm fine."

May responds smilingly. At that moment, a small old man appeared at her feet.

"Everything was fine," he said.

"Really?　It is reassuring to hear you say so, Norm."

"Mm. But then... The soil here is dead. It will take a lot of work to produce crops here. ......

The gnome with a sad expression on his face is May's contracted earth spirit. He is looking at the garden with his hands on his hips.

"Mei, ......"

"Yes."

"Now we have to be careful with the water."

"Is it water ......?"

"Yeah. The water is also highly acidic.

"Yes, sir."

The old man and May nodded to each other, but Serloitte could not quite grasp what they were saying. Sidi, perhaps sensing the mood, spoke up.

"When the water becomes acidic, it produces a bad smell.

"is ......"

"Also, the soil in this garden has a high percentage of acid, which makes it difficult for crops to grow.

"He......he......"

Serloitte's eyes widen. Seeing this, Sidi continues his explanation.

"This garden...... well, the whole country has been covered with volcanic ash, and the soil has a high acid content. Volcanic ash has a high acid content. That makes it difficult for crops to grow. Especially in the garden of this house, which has been burned by the fire magic of Mr. Rinos, the acid content is high.

"Is this white stuff ...... volcanic ash?"

"No. It's the remains of dead flowers and some dead ferry rats."

"Dead?"

"It turns out that if a certain amount of the flower's components are taken into the rats' bodies, the rats go into shock and die. ......Yes, this is something we found out when Serloit was bedridden with a fever. And I also found out the other day that if you inject osasinin, when the rats die of shock, their carcasses turn into white ashes just like flowers. But ...... it contains a strong acid, so this garden is no longer ......"

"And ...... that means it is ...... difficult ...... to grow flowers in this garden."

Serloitte's mind recalled the magnificent sight of this garden that she had seen only once when she was a child. He had been taken there with his mother when she had been invited to a tea party of the Duchess. Serloitte was impressed by the large and beautifully landscaped garden, full of colorful flowers in bloom.

I will never see that view again. .......

Serloitte felt a tightening in her heart at the thought. At that moment, the old man's voice echoed through the garden again.

"What!　Is that true, Mei?

The old man continues to look at May with a surprised expression on his face. May slowly crouched down and opened her mouth, placing the soil in front of her on her palm.

"Perhaps, but there is a high probability that it is possible.

"What the hell are you doing?

"We inject the opposite of acid. That will neutralize the soil. We can make the liquid right away.

"That's what I'm talking about, Mei."

May smiled. The gnome turns around and opens his mouth to Serloitte.

"My thin sister!"

"......!"

Suddenly spoken so loudly that Serloitte involuntarily shudders.

"Good for you. Now this garden will be back to normal!"

"Thank you, thank you, thank you."

Serloitte bows her head, thinking, "This is not my garden. The gnome nodded in satisfaction and disappeared into the garden.

"Well, Sadie, Mr. Serloitte. Shall I bring back some soil?"

"......?"

Serloitte looked at him with a puzzled look on her face, not quite understanding the meaning of May's words.

"I understand that the ferry rat will kill the flowers of friendship. However, I haven't yet found out anything about the flowers after they wither. I would like to bring back the soil and examine it to be sure."

Serloitte nodded broadly at these words, and Sidi nodded with a smile.

As a result, no friendly flower elements were detected in the soil that was brought back. After that, the garden of the Duke of Fantasic's mansion was left alone for a while, carefully watching to see if the flowers would regrow. However, the flowers did not grow back and this proved that the Ferry Rat was a means of eradicating the friendly flowers.

May and his colleagues continued their research to establish an even more effective eradication method. This was established in just a few days, thanks to the dedicated work of Serloitte. The final test was carried out in the garden of the Lillerein residence, where the ferirat that Serloitte had prepared died much faster than in the Duchesse de Fantasie.

It was only a few days later that the report on the eradication of the Friendship Flowers, which covered about a thousand pages, was submitted to Linos.
