After Reincarnation, I Was Turned Into a Slave Maid by the Princess Chapter 38 : Magic Crystal Stones

"Ah, bleh bleh! So salty!"

Just from tasting it once with her tongue, Lonis regretted it.

Because it felt like drinking a big gulp of seawater, making Lonis grimace from the saltiness.

Elucia had an expression of watching a good show and burst out laughing:

"Ha ha, worthy of being a stupid maid, so foolish!"

"That... that's only because you told to eat it!"

Lonis retorted pitifully. She didn't dare rush forward to fight Elucia desperately... she could only widen her eyes and look at this black-haired girl with great resentnt.

"Hmph, that was to let you know. Even though they're both water magic crystal stones, their types are vastly different. If you don't know how to distinguish them, don't use them carelessly... If you use Tide Stone while cooking, I'll definitely tornt you severely."

"Wuu..."

Lonis lowered her head and quickly placed the Tide Stone covered with her saliva aside: "Then... then how is this Tide Stone obtained? Does it exist naturally?"

"It exists naturally, and can also be made in specialized factories. As for the principle, it's very simple. I believe even you, stupid maid, should be able to understand."

"Uh?"

"Material compression. This Tide Stone was obtained by compressing dozens of cubic ters of seawater. And so-called Fire Crystals? They're obtained by compressing several tons of combustible materials at the mont of ignition."

"Eh?!"

Lonis stared in shock, never expecting magic crystal stones to be like this!

This differed sowhat from the physical laws in her mory, but what Elucia said next left Lonis even more dumbfounded.

"Of course, this compression isn't purely physical compression, because that would create matter similar to neutron stars... This compression utilizes certain four-dinsional spatial abilities to produce energy conversion."

"Wuu... wuu?"

"Based on the resonance effect of gravitational waves and matter, theoretically everything can be compressed into magic crystal stones, such as plastic magic crystal stones, radiance magic crystal stones, black hole magic crystal stones, submissive maid magic crystal stones."

"What do you an submissive maid magic crystal stones!"

"But because the processing and creation of magic crystal stones is a very complicated process, humans can currently only make a limited number of common types. Among them, Fire Crystals are mainly used for fuel and heating in various machinery, water crystal stones are mainly used for agricultural irrigation and water transport, wind crystal stones are mainly used for aircraft and firearm launching, and Thunder Crystals are mainly used for factory power supply and interrogating criminals."

"Oh..."

Lonis blinked. She seed to understand so things: no wonder Elucia's phone could shoot flas—it must have similar effects.

"Therefore, in today's world, magic crystal stones are also praised as the 'second currency' besides gold and silver. Certain rare types of magic crystal stones can sell for high prices."

"Then... then when we were in the Snow Kingdom capital, did we collect a lot of Ice Crystals... can we sell them for a lot of money?"

Lonis thought simply. If Elucia had money, maybe she wouldn't be so fierce to her.

She might even hire a maid with money, and her own life would be much better.

However...

"No, there's only the last bit left in the capital."

"Eh?"

"General Kuru got there before us and scraped clean all the nearby magic crystal stones."

"Damn it!"

"But I can teach you thods to distinguish various magic crystal stones. When walking in the wild in the future, keep your eyes wide open and observe. If you collect enough magic crystal stones, I can reluctantly give you so rewards."

"Rewards...?"

Now Lonis felt apprehensive whenever she heard the word "rewards," afraid of hearing the buzzing vibration of switches.

However, Elucia handed her a chart that read:

......

Slave Maid Reward Chart, Magic Crystal Stone Edition

1 Ordinary Magic Crystal --- 1 point

1 Large Magic Crystal --- 5 points

1 Rare Magic Crystal --- 25 points

1 Holy/Abyss Magic Crystal --- 1000 points.

......

......

Point Rewards:

Exchange for new stockings, 20 points

Exchange for new high heels, 50 points.

Exchange for new maid outfit, 100 points.

Exchange for new casual clothes, 300 points.

Exchange for gorgeous gothic dress, 500 points.

Title promotion to Honor Slave Maid, 1000 points.

......

Looking at these reward contents, Lonis only felt completely toyed with by Elucia.

What kind of 18 adult ga was this? Why were all her rewards like doll clothes!

She wasn't a girl, so receiving little dresses wouldn't make her happy... well, probably wouldn't make her happy.

Also, what difference was there between Honor Slave Maid and Slave Maid?

They were both slaves!

Lonis wanted to express dissatisfaction with angry eyes, but when she saw the last page, she froze.

Because it clearly stated:

......

Obtain freedom and the chance to beco a boy again, 100,000 points.

......

Although 100,000 points sounded high, compared to magic crystal stones, it wasn't unreachable!

Just 100 abyss magic crystals would do... Although she didn't know what those were, they shouldn't be hard to find, right?

Of course, Lonis didn't know.

Even skilled crystal stone collectors could only find about 5 ordinary magic crystal stones per day when searching.

And holy/abyss magic crystal stones were rare treasures that could only be encountered by chance... So people might not see even one in their entire lifeti.

In other words,

Even if Lonis was now a skilled searcher who could find 5 stones per day with very good luck, she could only find 2000 magic crystal stones in a year.

She would need to work continuously for 50 years to possibly et the point requirents and have the "chance" to gain freedom and beco a boy again.

And what this chance actually was had final interpretation rights belonging to Elucia. (In fact, Elucia would never let Lonis beco a boy again—she was just teasing her.)

But Lonis didn't know all this now. She just knew she finally had a chance...

To escape her girl identity!

To gain freedom!

To not have to wear such shaful dresses every day, not have to walk around everywhere with a pair of breasts protruding!

......

She wanted to jump up imdiately and directly kiss Elucia's toes... The originally evil black-haired girl seed so kind in her eyes.

"Master Elucia, wuu wuu..."

"What's wrong?"

"You... you're really too good to ! I don't know how to thank you for this kind of..."

"Hmph, that expression is disgusting. Submissive maid, don't co near ... Next we're having class. I'm going to explain thods for distinguishing different magic crystal stones."

"Yes yes!"

......

With motivation, Lonis felt she was learning very quickly.

Although there were many types of magic crystal stones—divided into 5 major categories, 13 minor categories, and 156 rare types.

The silver-haired girl had almost morized the general outline after just one look.

And not only morizing, Lonis could always draw inferences and ask key questions:

"Um, Master Elucia! What exactly is the difference between Thunder Crystals and Electric Crystals...?"

"One is natural, one is artificial. Electric Crystals have more stable energy and can provide long-term power supply. But Thunder Crystals have short function duration and unstable frequency, suitable for making weapons."
