[Eon's POV: ]
They had to create a common catalyst for the first round and there are many ways one can go about solving this 'question' presented by the competition hosts.
One can state the sa thing that was given to them, the thing that was on the display like many of the participants would do, so can do like the masters and at the others and create sothing slightly better than that, so can go about it in another way and start it as sothing unique and daring like Miss Mia was doing by creating sothing that was closely related to it but not the sa thing.
So can interpret the 'question' in so inferential ways as well and since this competition was about the 'art' of Alchemy, there was no set answer to the 'question' presented before them.
And, that was the main reason that the judgnt panel that was set up each ti to evaluate the results of a participant were people well versed in the arts of alchemy, arts of different kinds, or, were masters of their field.
They ca from different fields and were especially unbiased toward the participants, and that made the whole judgnt process a breeze every ti.
'Even this ti, the judgnt panel was comprised of so of the renowned masters and grandmasters of various fields, teachers who had taught many like so from our school, as well as the common people who knew the aning of life and this world.'
They were special in their own way, so, they knew how to judge sothing or soone or, their creations in this competition, or the way to achieve this creation.
Morality and values were a virtue of an artist and so were the ethics. They couldn't tolerate the thods of soone who was obviously crossing the line with how they were going about to answer the 'question' presented before them.
'Creating a great explosion just to activate the holy barriers of the grounds was a gamble that the person with Prince Charles thoughtfully played, and, what she achieved with them, was just enough for these experts to look away from the thod she had used.'
[[ "She is a bitch… why don't the others do anything about her even though they know she is obviously a demon?!" ]]
Rein was angry at her, it was an obvious reaction she would give to any being that was even closely retaliating to the demons, Lizzy being an exception here.
There was a half-demon down there among thousands of humans masquerading as a human and, the people like her, Emperor August and the empresses as well as President and Lord Justin certainly knew of this fact, but, not only they weren't even talking about this problem, they didn't even react to this thing in any kind of negative way.
They just let it happen and now also had impressed expressions as they looked down at the thing she had created with that threatening explosion of hers.
Rein couldn't understand the reason for their behavior even though it was so obvious, but, perhaps she just didn't want to understand because of her hate for the demon kind.
[[ "You know she is with Prince Charles, right? The emperor and his company would obviously have stayed silent about the matter, the sa goes for Mister President and Lord Justin.
As for the others, so are just afraid of the authority of Prince Charles and the emperor who is rumored to cherish him quite a lot, while so are afraid of the authority of the divine that has helped in the creation of this whole structure." ]]
[[ "Authority of the divine?" ]]
[[ "Haven't I told you how the founder of Lakr was a Stigma bearer of so high-ranking god and that the gods and so of the divine beasts of this planet also helped in the creation of this land?
So now, how would you explain the existence of a demon on the land blessed by divinity?
There is no way to prove she is a demon, and even if there is, the fact that a demon could exist in a place blessed by the divine, as well as be unhard by a holy barrier of that kind, is sothing we couldn't possibly overlook.
Huuuu… ultimately Rein, your anger on one side and the facts on the other.
She is not here to harm anyone, she has the proper backing of so of the highest-standing people in the high society as well as the common society of the adventurers, and, she is a genius.
A genius that takes risks. " ]]
The question presented before everyone was the sa, they had to interpret it in their own way and create sothing that could satisfy the judges at the very least.
She understood this fact and used all the resources that were presented to them, used the worst thod one could think of in this situation to create sothing 'similar' to the common catalyst, and used the structure of this place, the holy barriers that everyone knew the existence of in her alchemical processes, and synthesized a material that would otherwise be practically impossible to create in a place such as this.
'What she created was a small ingot of gold. A shiny-looking gold with so deep color that one couldn't possibly look at it and think it is not sothing precious. At least, the people who did not know what it was would think it was so high-quality gold, but… the alchemists who were present down there were undoubtedly aware that the small ingot, was in fact none other than the precious [Iker], sothing that was also called [God's blood] in the world of alchemy.'
It was a universal reactor that could be used in many ways in many of the alchemical processes to do many of the things.
It was an elent as well, not an alloy, not so amalgamation, or anything that had any relation to this.
It was an independent elent and synthesizing it required a great amount of concentrated holy energy, as well as a perfect understanding of the retinoic structures of the other elents used, the precision required to handle the process by oneself, and the talent to handle it perfectly without even any factor of anomaly.
'So masters and grandmasters here could certainly create it, however, creating sothing like this would an creating sothing of their life's work. Sothing they couldn't possibly part ways with, sothing that had only co into existence with the effects of their efforts, luck, and fate.'
It was considered a phenonal achievent if soone did manage to create this special thing, but, here was this half-demon girl, creating sothing those masters and grandmasters spent their entire lives hoping to create as if it was nothing but a ga for her.
And she used a very unorthodox thod in its creation, used the holy powers of this special land, and perhaps she was also blessed with a great luck, but, she succeeded.
She created the [God's blood] after a long ti on these competition grounds, and after this achievent, there was no way in any hell or heaven that they were going to be disqualified from this competition.
'Instead of that, anyone that found this whole thing fun and exciting including people like emperor August, Master Maverick, or , would want to see just how much this unknown girl could show us. Just what were her limits and how far she can go.'
I can see her status window but there's nothing special on it, not even the fact that she is of a demonic bloodline so, it obviously ans that isn't her original status window.
She perhaps has a 'status masking' ability like Prince Alph, so I will have to use Lucy's analysis on her to find out what she actually is, but, I couldn't do it from here.
I will have to get close to her to use that ability, which I know isn't happening at least for the ti the competition is going on so, I am not looking too deep into her identity or the secrets yet.
Instead of focusing on the simple fact that she was of a demonic bloodline, sothing she did not have any control over, Rein should focus on the fact that we were seeing an unknown genius's performance for the first ti ever.
She had just created sothing that many present down there desired deeply and it was just the first round of the competition.
Who knew just how much more she had in store for all of us or what new unorthodox thods she would use to create more unique things?
And, we also didn't know if she was already an unconfird master or grandmaster yet or if she was not, would she be a candidate for the position of one this year.
We didn't know many things about her yet, and, even if Rein still wants to continue her prejudice, I wanna see that person's achievents in this competition.
'Perhaps, she might also be a challenge for my house, so we have to look out for her.'
But before we do that…
"And, It seems like the old genius has learned quite a lot of new things."
Master Maverick spoke up again as the half-demon girl in disguise was walking towards the judges with her prised creation, and, the attention was once again shifted to Miss Mia who, well, had finally started the main creation process, which looked gorgeous in all aspects…
People knew her, they considered her a genius born once in an era, and now, she was going to show others why people called her the [Alchemist of Silver] of all the things.
