At night, inside of the Magic Science Guild’s laboratory.

There, Moka was about to carry out the experiment which other guild members observed with a slight murmur.

In front of her stood a transparent box, sealed airtight with magic.

That box contained bark with traces of the poison that was extracted from the God Tree a few minutes ago.

The black and purple wriggled, crawling like a worm on the surface of dirty brown bark.

Those colors made it look almost like the poison was a living being. For the past few days, they were battling with this thing on and on.

「Well, let’s have another go at it.」

With those words, the murmur of the surrounding guild members completely died.

Now, with the only sounds in the laboratory being those or running equipment, Moka slightly opened the lid of the transparent box and brought to it an injector she had in her hand.

The injector’s cylinder contained a yellow-green liquid.

The freshly made medicine.

A product of combining ingredients from the top of the God Three and the perfect fruits that Axel brought a while ago.

Until now they made countless similar attempts at creating the antidote.

And for the countless times failed to remove this poison.

Halting the poison’s movements for a moment was the most they could achieve. After Daisy came and they began using the God Tree fruit, the time when the poison remained motionless increased remarkably.

And that’s where they were stuck until now. However, this timeー

…They were about to put all of their accumulated hypotheses to use and they even had the boon of having the perfect set of ingredients.

The medicine contained all of the knowledge they gathered in attempts to cure the God Tree.

The expectations for it were quite high. And so, guild members attentively observed the test.

Being aware of thatー

「Here we go.」

Moka slowly dribbled the liquid on the poison.

Immediately after coming in contact with the bark the yellow-green liquid was absorbed by it.

「How is it……」

「How is it going……!」

A murmur, now filled with hope, once again resounded through the room.

And after a few seconds of Moka and other researchers gazing at the bark, a certain change occurred to it.

「……This is……」

The movement that purple and black thing stopped.

Furthermore, its color began to fade.

And not only that, it gradually shrank, the purple and black gradually shrank.

The poison was negated. And after decreasing in size it didn’t return to its original proportions.

And in the blink of an eye, it turned into a small speck.

Seeing that everyone had their breath taken away.

「Outstanding effectiveness……! This medicine has higher effectiveness than any antidote we tried until now!」

「Oooh……!」

Moka’s words were followed by excited shouts from everyone.

「The competition of the antidote doesn’t seem so far now!」

「We have to thank Flying Carrier for this……!」

Voices full of energy filled the laboratory.

However for Moka, it was too early for celebrations.

It’s not like they restored the God Tree and they also didn’t fully eliminate the poison. Thereforeー

「Just one more step. Just a bit more and we should be able to completely cure this poison. So let’s keep going, everyone……!」

「Yeeah……!」

Receiving such energetic response from the guild members, Moka and researchers continued working on the antidote through the night, making progress at an even higher pace.
