Metal blood .

Blood, the only means of controlling liquid metal, when William cut his hand and blood leaked into the metal bowl, the astral energy in the blood mixed with the melted liquid metal.

"Huh?..ha-ha, is your hand okay, little brother???"

Krueger ignored the search for plants, stared in amazement without moving for a while, then quickly turned to William who was controlling the liquid metal.

"Go away," William said with a smile to prevent Kruger from getting close, then raised his hand even more while liquid metal followed him.

Krueger paused, stared at the fluid that had become scattered and widened, and then adhered to William's body like iron skin.

William's entire body became covered in liquid metal that became solid once he stuck with William.

William's body was completely covered, eyes and face as well, but with just a thought, the metal receded from his face and only occupied the rest of his body.

'Hmmm beautiful'

William smiled wildly, and then with just a thought, he was able to turn the metal back into a liquid state again and make it soar.

With another idea from William, he made the liquid enter little by little into the storage ring he had made of the third dimension stone.

After it's over. William stared at Rudd and Krueger who were just staring, "What?"

"What was that? Metal is unable to exist in two chemical states at the same time? How is that?" Krueger shouted in disbelief, after this day, Krueger would undoubtedly lose his pride as one of the finest alchemists currently.

"Just a formula from my teacher, the point is, did you finish the energy diffusion formula?" William locked the position, and asked again.

' Teacher ? Do you think I'm stupid, I know everyone with the title of alchemist in this union and outside, there is no such person ' Krueger guessed inside, then said to William, "Yes, the alchemical formula worked, and without a doubt it is capable of spreading energy and revitalizing the body'

Kruger approached the vial that contained a bright blue liquid, grabbed it and threw it at William. "I think you and the blue-haired man have something to do with it, I have the formulas and the plants, I can make it any time."

"Good, I have to go back to the academy before morning comes, I hope that trying one formula is enough to prove to you that the rest of the formulas are correct."

"Yes, it is. All the equations and interactions are correct, I have no doubts."

William shook his head, went over to some small bottles, and took hold of the large bottle and divided it into four small bottles.

Then he threw two at Rod, "One is just enough to save your daughter, and the second will give her a boost to come back with great vigor. I hope you're safe on your way to the eastern part, after that, you'll meet me at the academy."

Rod grabbed the flasks, with sad eyes, then leaned over to William and said, "Thank you, sir, I will never forget that for the rest of my life, I'll run out of what you say from now on!"

This was not strange, Rod worked for years in the field of robbery just to postpone the death of his daughter, he has no problem dedicating his whole life only to the fact that his daughter is well.

"I'll go now." Rod got up, and walked quickly toward the stairs.

At most, it would take half a day for him to reach the Forest of Death in the eastern part, and returning to the Academy would take another half a day.

"You seem to like to do good a lot, you help parents save their children, your manners amaze me," Kruger sneered as he turned toward the chair and sat down.

"Of course, I'm a good man," William smiled, and took a few steps, staring around.

"That leaf-haired guy looks simple though he's strong, you wouldn't take advantage of him too much," Krueger smiled as well, and replied in an expert tone.

"Hmmm? I won't, I'm not taking advantage of what I'm a cautious person."

William did not lie, about being a more cautious person than being an exploiter, this is the reality, William will guarantee his chance of survival and achieve his will by doing anything, even exploitation, as long as caution leads to exploitation, William is a great exploiter based on the amount of his caution.

"Do you have a teleportation machine in this lab?" William asked, while his eyes did not catch a glimpse of the teleporter anywhere around.

Krueger is not someone who goes out of the hut a lot, he gets all the advanced machines from the union because he signed a contract with them, while if he wants something private he contacts his acquaintances in the black market of the eastern part. Anything gets delivered to him within a day, so the teleportation machine was literally no use for him, but William didn't ask this question thinking that Krueger had one, he was sure that Kruger's student, had one to move between the academy and the lab.

"I don't have one, but my pupil bought one and programmed it to link this lab to the Zeus Academy he's currently studying in. He hardly programmed it this morning and moved on afterwards, so I'm not sure if it works well."

...

Krueger spoke, as he rose from his seat and turned toward a wall hidden by a large curtain, when he moved the curtain, there appeared a small, gloomy room, and in the midst of it was a disk-shaped machine clinging to the floor, decorated in blue and white.

"That's it, I don't know how it works so don't ask me," Krueger pointed to the navigator in his hand, and said.

"Don't worry, I know how it works." William approached, bent down on his knees, and pressed a few buttons and inspected the machine's tank of magic crystals.

'Enough energy, good'

"Old man, I took 500 magic crystals plus some minerals, see you later!"

William got up and stood on top of the disc, an intermittent blue light rose, and William disappeared.

...

In the eastern part, above a black building with red windows, only the sound of crows and owls were present, and within a moment, in the pitch-black and empty darkness, the body of burly man, blue hair and drowsy eyes, appeared, Rod.

Rod approached the edge of the roof, jumped up, after descending for a few seconds, he used the Flying Ghost skill . and flew in front of a small apartment window.

He approached the window, grabbed it with his hand, and then canceled the Flying Ghost skill.

Knock knock knock

Rod rang the window, and within seconds, a small part of the window opened and an old woman's tired eye appeared, checking who was knocking on the window.

As soon as that eye caught Rod's face, the window opened completely and the exhausted body of an old woman appeared inside the porch..

"Rod, you're finally here! Emilia's not doing well!!" The old woman said in a weary voice as her eyes started to water.

This old woman is Rod's neighbor who lives in the next apartment, because Rod was always stealing outside, leaving his daughter alone.

Therefore, this old woman named Sarah, was Emilia's nursery, Rod's daughter, and she always looked after Amelia without waiting for any pay or money .

"I know, Grandma Sarah...sorry I'm late," Rod said with a sad expression, then entered the window.

In one room connected to a bathroom and kitchen, there are two beds, dilapidated and unclean walls, a beautiful girl's body with blue hair in one of the beds.

The body of this girl, 15-year-old Emilia, was in a state where it was disappearing like a ghost, yet it was still in a human state.

But little by little, her body was disappearing and disappearing into a ghost while her body was getting worse every day.

Rod approached his daughter's body, which was in much worse condition than she had been in a long time, with pearly eyes, and shouted angrily 'Dammit...they broke the promise..I swear..I swear I'm going to make you regret it!!!' "

"The team you were working with, they brought a hundred magic crystals in the first month of your disappearance, but the next two months they didn't knock on our door. Rod , what happened to you all these months?" Grandma Sarah asked as she saw the look on Rod's face.

"Nothing, nothing, Grandma." Rod controlled his anger, and stared at the two bottles in his hand.

He opened the first vial, opened his daughter's mouth partially, and poured the blue liquid there.

A few seconds passed, his daughter did not move, and nothing happened.

'Impossible, impossible...the second bottle will work, yes yes haha'

Rod said to himself, as he tried to open the second flask, a soft and gentle voice echoed in his mind.

tears in his eyes

" Hmm ..Dad ? "
