Cheat Awakening

Chapter 242: Chapter 242. Amy's Official Moving To Myne's House

"By the way, Myne, I wanted to ask you something. After collecting the required materials, what should we do to upgrade the weapon? I mean, who is going to upgrade them? I don't think any random blacksmith could do it; most people probably haven't even heard about them, let alone upgraded them," Sylphy inquired.

Hearing Sylphy's question, both Myne and Aisha frowned a bit, as neither of them had thought about this matter.

"Yes, this would definitely be the biggest problem we need to solve, as we either need a very high-level blacksmith who can smith magic weapons or an experienced Alchemist. But sadly, I know neither of them," Myne muttered helplessly while shaking his head.

"This is indeed a big problem. Should we temporarily give up on this matter until we find someone who can upgrade them?" Aisha asked, folding her arms.

"No, rather than giving up, I think for now we should slowly collect all materials first before slowly searching for a high-level Alchemist who can upgrade our weapons," Myne instantly denied Aisha's suggestion.

"I understand. Should we find the place where Elder Treants are inhabited? Anyway, other materials like Troll leather or magic stone, we could easily collect them from the Dungeon of Strength," Aisha said after thinking for a bit.

"Now, this is what I call a great suggestion," Myne nodded while messing with Aisha's hair.

"Myne, about high-level Alchemists, I think I know someone who could help us in this matter!"

While Myne and Aisha were chatting, Sylphy suddenly stood up from her chair and exclaimed in excitement.

"Huh? Really? That's wonderful. Who is it? Is he someone working for the royal family?" Myne, after a moment of surprise, quickly asked while raising his voice in delight.

But for some reason, Sylphy showed a slightly troubled look before she started speaking.

"But, he is a very tough person to speak with. He only accepts requests from his mother... No, I think it's better if we do not even meet him and find someone else."

Only accept requests from my sweet mother-in-law? Huh, there is definitely something wrong with this guy; I can sense it. Don't tell me this alchemist is hatching some kind of evil plot for my innocent mother-in-law or trying to get under her panty. No, this can't be possible. I can't let the bastard succeed.

If it were before having that sweet personal conversation with my mother-in-law, maybe I wouldn't have taken it seriously and might have ignored it. But meeting and spending some time with her, listening to Mother and her stories while eating her handmade sweets, I can't ignore this matter, Myne thought with determination, deciding to uncover the alchemist's true intentions.

"Sylphy, do you know why he only accepts mother-in-law's requests and not someone else?"

"Well, I can't say that he only accepts Mother's requests. It's just that he makes a lot of trouble while accepting other people's requests, but this is not the case when Mother asks him to do anything. I don't think I could get a response immediately if I ask him... but if I persuade him over time, then there might be a possibility that he gets ready to help us..."

"If we follow this method, doesn't it mean we're begging him for his help?" Myne asked with a tight frown. He had already placed this alchemist on his 'Must Eliminate' list; it just needed verification.

"If you think about it, maybe we could seek Mother's help. She probably won't mind assisting us," Sylphy replied with a helpless smile. She suddenly felt that Myne had gotten a little too close to her mother after spending some personal time with her.

"No, we can't trouble Mother-in-law for such a small matter. We should deal with our own issues ourselves. Let's first gather all the materials, then go to the royal palace and have a face-to-face conversation with that alchemist," Myne said with a deadly serious face.

"And what if he doesn't agree?" Sylphy, who had sensed something off about Myne's tone, couldn't help but ask with a raised eyebrow.

"Then we beat the hell out of him for causing Mother-in-law so much trouble before looking for a better alternative. After all, it's not like there's no one else in the world who could help us," Myne replied casually, still thinking about how he is going to make that alchemist spit out his evil plot.

Hearing Myne's confident response, Sylphy and Aisha exchanged glances and shook their heads helplessly.

"By the way, isn't Amy finally moving out from the guild to live with us today? Why hasn't she come here yet?" Myne looked at the clock on the wall and asked Aisha with confusion.

"She can come here anytime. Have patience. Also, let me share some shocking information. Do you know how long Amy has been living in our town?" Aisha asked in a mysterious voice.

"How long?" Sylphy moved her face close to Aisha, and curiously.

"1 Year perhaps?" Myne replied causally with a raise of his eyebrow.

"Wrong, ten entire years and the most shocking thing is neither Myne nor I have ever seen her before in the town as if she never comes out of her house. Can you imagine living alone in a house without interacting with anyone for ten years? Until now, if someone asked me about it, I would have said only a ghost could do it."

As Aisha said that, Myne and Sylphy displayed surprised expressions. Neither of them could fathom such a lonely life without going mad.

"Unfortunately, I can't manage to uncover her true age. As an elf lives thousands of years and still looks young and energetic it is nearly impossible to determine an elf's true age just by their appearance. I couldn't even ask her such sensitive information, which is literally taboo in the women's world," Aisha said with a regretful expression, clearly eager to know Amy's real age.

Should I tell her Amy's age? But what if she mentions it to Amy, and starts behaving unnaturally afterwards, making Amy uncomfortable...? Forget it. Just as she said, talking about a woman's age is taboo. It is better to bury this secret deep in my heart. After all, I can't take the risk of making my future elf wife angry with any of my foolish actions, Myne thought seriously.

"By the way, when I went home the day before yesterday, I heard from Aniue that our guild leader has been very busy lately because of Amy's matter. Now he would do anything to quickly get rid of her. In just one week, he went to the royal palace on his horse back and forth at least 10 times and had many meetings with Aniue.

Aniue also mentioned to me about Amy having a personal guard around her," Sylphy said with a giggle.

"That greedy geezer deserves it. Sometimes I wonder how he became the guild leader in the first place," Myne commented with a happy expression, clearly satisfied hearing about Bazzam's misfortune.

"But Myne, since Amy is going to live with us, you should take care of your bad habits as well. Don't do anything that might embarrass us in front of Amy. Got it?" Aisha reminded Myne with a frown while putting her little brother back into his pants.

"Yes, mother. I promise I won't do anything funny in front of Amy. Sometimes you speak like a Mother, and you two have already mentioned it more than a dozen times. Please stop it now; I am not a child, okay?" Myne dissatisfyingly said while rubbing his forehead.

"We hope so," Aisha and Sylphy spoke in unison, clearly not very assured about Myne's so-called promise.

"Hello!"

While discussing various matters, everyone heard a familiar, gentle voice emanating from the entrance.

"Bow-Bow-Bow-Bow-Bow-Bow-Bow-Bow-Bow..."

"Weren't Ted's parents going out for a walk in the forest, as they usually are? When did they come back?" Myne inquired as he walked toward the entrance, eager to greet Amy along with everyone else.

"They came back soon after I called you for breakfast. Didn't you see me going out to give them their food?" Aisha replied, rolling her eyes.

"Sorry, I forgot about it," Myne admitted, lightly biting his tongue as he opened the door. He greeted Amy with a bright smile.

"Hello, Amy! Welcome to your new home!" Myne cheerfully exclaimed, enveloping Amy in an unexpected tight hug. He completely ignored Bazzam, who was attempting to shoo away Ted's parents with a wooden stick in the background, being careful not to harm them.

"Ahhh, Lo, Myne, what are you doing?" Amy, being Amy, spoke hurriedly in a trembling voice after being suddenly hugged by Myne.

"Of course, welcoming you. Otherwise, what did you think, silly?" Myne replied with a smile while patting Amy's head.

Although her real boobs were concealed by her magic item, when hugging her, I could clearly feel them. Just as I thought, her magic item works more like an illusion cast over her real body to deceive people's eyes rather than changing her entire appearance. Hmmm, this magic item doesn't seem very reliable.

If someone were suspicious of her and wanted to uncover her real identity, it wouldn't be very difficult to do it. I have to do something about it, Myne thought seriously, but his smile never left his face.

"Aisha! Help me! These dogs are trying to bite me..."

Just as Myne finished speaking, Bazzam in the background shouted loudly.

Aisha, who clearly couldn't ignore Bazzam, her ex-boss, after getting spotted by him, quickly went to him and sent Ted's parents away, making Bazzam breathe a sigh of relief.
