The wall is really big. I'm sure Yvonne's maid can endure so far.
'Hmm, lab. Yes, I should go to the lab. Maybe there is a clue.'
I didn't feel the urgency to use magic, so I didn't even think about going to Yvonne's magic artifact lab.
In fact, I never imagined that such a scary Incident would happen, which worried me about my personal safety.
Isn't it obvious?
The evil woman was Yvonne, and the mastermind was Yvonne.
If I stay quiet, nothing scary will happen, and the world will be peaceful.
'Damn. It's become annoying.'
I grumbled and slowly walked toward the lab that connected to my study.
The path led along a dark and narrow corridor.
Maybe there is a corpse? I was scared of what to do.
When I finally arrived at the entrance of the lab, the lamp installed on the ceiling automatically lit up, and the inside of the lab was lit up.
"Wow."
I thought it was a wicked woman's lab, full of dark, gloomy, and weird research items, skeletons, and dust.
'Was it my prejudice?'
Yvonne's lab was larger, neater, and more organized than I expected.
As I approached the large desk by the large sunny window, I saw a pile of magic artifact design drawings that Yvonne had been researching.
On the right, there was a large table where magic artifacts were being made, and it was as if I were in a workshop.
For some reason, Yvonne felt like an engineering student to an ordinary wizard, and my stomach rumbled.
It doesn't seem like the Yvonne I knew.
'Hmm. Why is this happening?'
I took a deep breath and shook my head.
When I came to my senses, I looked around the lab again and found a light green locker in the right corner, just as Carol said.
"I don't remember much about this."
I narrowed my eyebrows.
What can I say?
In order for the memories stored in Yvonne's body to fuse with me, several conditions were required.
Only when I come into direct contact with a situation, person, or thing can I remember Yvonne.
Also, even if Yvonne comes into contact with someone she met in the past, I can't remember it unless an event that reminds me of the past is mentioned.
Most of them were memorable, and there were no problems, so it wasn't difficult to adapt to this world.
However, it is different if the situation has something to do with something magical.
Yvonne's memories related to magic don't fit well with me.
If I look around this locker and the magic lab, I can't remember anything in particular. I think my hypothesis is confirmed.
Am I someone who doesn't fit in with magic? Did I find the wrong evil woman to possess?
I made various assumptions and reached for the locker.
Rattle.
'Huh?'
The locker, which was tightly closed, opened automatically as soon as I touched it, as if it had recognized my fingerprint.
My god. I can't believe that there is a fingerprint recognition system even in this era. Was Yvonne developing this? If so, that's amazing.
It may not be fingerprint recognition, but I tilted my head because I didn't know how it was opened.
When I looked into the locker, I found a thick book and a diary.
"Oho. It's a diary, isn't it?"
I was so happy that my jaw dropped.
There must be some clue in the diary.
I picked up the diary that looked full of secrets and tried to open it right away.
"Oh dear. It won't open."
The diary was hardcover, but no matter how much I tried, it wouldn't open.
When I looked closely, I saw a purple gemstone embedded in the middle of the hardcover of the diary.
I guess this one must have been injected with magical power.
'For some reason, it seems that it will only open with Yvonne's magical power...'
Oh no. It's not going to be solved easily.
Leave the diary alone for now.
I panicked and put the diary back in my locker.
And I turned my attention to another hidden item, a thick book.
It must be an important book.
'No way...'
I swallowed nervously.
In the original story, Yvonne makes a contract with the devil and awakens as a formidable warlock.
If it's a book that is hidden like this, perhaps...
"According to Imperial law, possessing a book of dark magic is punishable in itself. This is a serious crime that even a nobleman cannot avoid."
It sent chills down my spine.
Really, if it were really such a book, I had to burn it and destroy the evidence.
I listened nervously to the book.
"Huh?"
Contrary to my expectations, it was a title that made me doubt my eyes.
I was relieved and laughed.
"What is this?"
[ Dictionary and Treatment of Various Rare Diseases ]
It is a completely unexpected title.
The darkness that is destroying the world... Well, I thought it would be a title like this, but it's a rather ordinary title.
Was Yvonne interested in rare diseases?
Why did she hide the rare disease book so tightly?
As I turned the page without thinking, I noticed that Yvonne had bookmarked the page halfway through the book.
I opened it, and my eyes widened in surprise.
"Magical amnesia and its treatment?"
As I read it without thinking, I realized what this book meant.
My hand trembled like an aspen tree.
"My... I am a magical amnesia."
That's why I couldn't use magic.
Magical amnesia.
Had Yvonne been suffering from magical amnesia before?
'There was no such thing in the original.'
I just thought that because I lived in a time without magic, I couldn't use Yvonne's magic.
"Let's stay calm."
I was so embarrassed, but I was relieved because the treatment was written down with it.
I hurriedly read the treatment method written in the book
"Magic amnesia can be cured by melting 1kg of the highest grade magic stone called 'Thiels' and drinking it as a tea steadily...? Thiels Magic Stone? I've never heard of it."
As if to answer my question, the notepad in the book fluttered to the floor.
On the dropped notepad, Yvonne's jagged writing was as if she were angry.
I had a bad feeling.
The note read.
"The price of Thiels, ten million gold for 1 gram. A total of 1 billion gold for 1 kg... One bill gold. Uh-huh?!"
Hey, Yvonne Argenthoze...!
Is it time for you to get angry with such angry letters?
I don't know how great an experiment it was, but if I hadn't blown up the mines during that magic experiment, I would have been able to survive somehow!
"It's ridiculous!!"
I thought I was possessed by a powerful woman with a lot of money, a wizard, and a villainess.
To regain the magic alone, I had to die alone and collect a hundred billion.
"What's going on? Princess?"
I stared blankly at Carol's face as she followed me into the lab to see if she had heard my screams from afar.
"Carol. You haven't worn the lace I gifted you yet, have you? That lace... I think I should refund it."
"Oh, Princess. No... I will not return what you gave me."
Carol, who trembled but confidently conveyed her opinion, ran away when she saw that I was safe.
Bad, Carol.
No, the bad thing is me, the master without money.
I sat down on the floor in frustration, gritted my teeth, and jumped up from my seat.
'Damn. I'm an imperial Princess like this now, but I was very poor before! I'm used to it. I'm used to it.'
Even if you are lonely, sad, or poor, let's get up and solve it quickly.
Although it started with penniless and is on the outskirts, the pride of the landlord who bought a two-room officetel in Korea. There is.
For the time being, the price of the magic stone called Thiels might have dropped further, so I decided to check it out again.
I clenched my fists, told myself to stay as calm as possible, and took a deep breath before returning to my room.
I then summoned the head of the capital branch of the upper Hoz run by our family through the magic communication zone.
This magic communication device, which is activated by magic stones, was quite convenient.
It can immediately contact the place where Yvonne bought magic materials to conduct magic experiments in the past.
I was curious about it before, so I touched the magic communication device a few times, and I thought it was good to know it beforehand.
Watching the signal flicker at the communication zone makes me very nervous.
'...I'll get it quickly.'
The top of the Hoz is one of the largest merchants in the empire that sells magic materials and artifacts, including magic stones.
It would be most obvious to ask the price of the Thiels Magic Stone here.
After a while, the head of the capital branch of the upper Hoz was heard.
"Princess, it's been a long time since I've found you..'
"Hmm... Yes, Baron Gardner."
It was worth looking through the information at the top of the Hoz to make a gift for Barden.
Baron Kane Gardner.
Baron Gardner was a vassal of House Argenthoz, and I was told that this man was so resourceful that he was the head of the capital branch of the upper Hoz.
Hearing his voice, I remembered that I had bought several magic stones from this person before.
I took a deep breath and asked.
"I'll tell you about the current situation and ask you a question first. What is the current price of "Thiels'?"
"Yes? Thiels? That rare magic stone?"
Oh no.
Is that magic stone even rare?
The moment I became more anxious, Baron Gardner spoke again, in a voice more unsettling than I was.
"Princess, are you really going to start the experiment again? However, you managed to dispose of the credit with the money you handed over when you sold the sapphire mine last time."
Listening to his advice, my memory came back to me, and I swallowed my tears silently.
Sapphire mines.
That was my last private property.
Magic Ingredients. Among them, magic stones are quite expensive.
This is because it was difficult to obtain and was often destroyed during processing.
"So, how much is it?"
I was so upset that I had blown up a mine that I had never seen before, so I gritted my teeth and asked again.
Baron Gardner, who was tense over the comms, hurriedly replied.
"Now, wait a minute. Thiels. Thiels."
I can only hear Baron Gardner rummaging through papers.
I was nervous and excited.
Because the price of Thiels may have gone down now.
Yes... About five million gold for one gram?
Of course, I don't have the money to pay it right away, but I will do it later...
"Oh, no. Good news, Princess!"
As I prayed with my hands clasped together, I heard Baron Gardner's clear voice.
'I guess I got off!"
"How much!"
I clasped my hands together and jumped up from my seat.
