Fortunately, the first experiment seems to be successful.
I can finally feel some energy in my body which has been weakened for a long time. My spirit has cleared and I think I can bring an end to the research.

There is something strange.
Sometimes I cannot repress my desires.
And it is difficult to remember the days.
Some side effects of the experiment?
I’m worried.
Page 459
Ah, what have I done?
Why does some of the laboratory ‘not exist in this world anymore? It is clearly the effect of an experiment.
Perhaps this phenomenon is what took place in the Netherworld a long time ago. If so, I have gotten one step closer to the answer. But I don’t remember what I did.
Oh my god, now I can’t touch the documents with my many years of research on it….! All I can touch is my diary.
However, even what I wrote in the diary is unknown.
Who am I? Why am I here?
What happened to me?
I do not know …. I….I…..Tricked?
By whom….?
‘Then Magaro turned himself into a chimera?’
After that the genius alchemist just focused on his research……no, he directly wrote down the process. After remodelling his body, he experience short-term memory loss and dementia as a side effect. Even if he was smart didn’t mean his life was smooth-sailing. A message window appeared when Ark read the final part of the diary.
Quest has been updated.
=
You’ve found the hidden laboratory by following in the footsteps of the Genius Alchemist. However, you could not touch anything in the laboratory despite all your efforts. Magaro has disappeared so you have no idea why this is happening. If you want to get your hands on Magaro’s research then you’ll have to figure it out on your own.
‘Dammit….it wasn’t finished once I found the laboratory?’
Annoyance rose in his stomach. How much time had he invested to get here? Starting from the key in the Magic Institute to the arena and Salrin’s’ Towers, he obtained all the clues to enter the Netherworld. And he finally came to the Netherworld. After suffering and almost dying in the Abyss of Despair, he had finally figured out the location of the lab in the Netherworld. And now it was an ‘Updated’ rather than a ‘Complete?’ What kind of absurd situation was this?
‘So my great reward has just rolled away?’
It was to the extent that he wanted to give up the quest. But had he suffered so much just to give up now?
‘I can only touch this diary in the laboratory. But Magaro wrote in the diary that he didn’t know how to deal with the phenomenon that happened in the laboratory. Then I have to search elsewhere to figure out what happened here…..’
But Ark didn’t worry for that long.
Ark knew only one village in the Netherworld, the village in the valley. And didn’t it have the old man Beseutyu? His family business was to record everything that happened in the area so he might have some idea of this phenomenon.
‘The phrase in the diary ‘what happened in the Netherworld a long time ago’ seems to be a hint.
So Ark decided his next destination. He would revisit the valley village.
‘But before that……’
Ark summarized the situation and glanced at Buksil.
“Yes, what were you going to tell me? Please say it.”
“Huh? Oh, no…..that……”
Buksil rolled his eyes anxiously and said.
“As expected from Ark-nim. Hehehe, yes that’s what I wanted to say. I only survived because of Ark-nim and Lariette-nim.”
‘Hrm, what a sneaky guy. He’s definitely hiding something.’
Ark briefly glared at Buksil. Ark knew that there was something strange. Buksil was a merchant and had no chance of winning against Ark. Buksil probably knew this better than anyone else. But why would he risk death to follow Ark? Obviously there was something that Ark didn’t know. Something that made him think he could steal the legacy from Ark….. But what was it? A skill Ark didn’t know about? A scroll? An item?
‘If I hit him then I might be able to figure it out…..’
Anyway, there was still some time before he could obtain the legacy. And Buksil could still be used for a variety of things. The pig could be used for picking up ingredients, as a second bag, for money transactions when he needed it and to also finish filming the video. After calculating it in his head, Ark just nodded.
“I’m thankful that you’re admitting it.”
“Aigoo, what kind of…..it is natural.”
“Is that right?”
“Hehehe, of course.”
Buksil rolled around giggling and beat at his forehead with his feet. Lariette didn’t know the relationship between the two so was just confused.
“Now, let’s return to the village in the valley. I’ve already figured out the way so it shouldn’t take that long. Radun, can you carry 3 people?
Ssak ssak? Ssak ssak ssak ssak!
Radun answered positively. So Ark headed towards the valley village on Radun.
But Ark couldn’t imagine what lay ahead. While running towards the valley village, he never knew that this quest would not just affect the Netherworld, but the entirety of New World as well. And it would also have a huge impact on Ark’s adventure……
