The villain daughter did all kinds of things

After successfully testing all major functions, including flight, burrowing, diving, and transformation, old man Langdon laughed heartily like a child.

"Hahahaha...Young Miss, you actually made this thing...To be honest, I originally thought you could make it with about 6% of the performance, but I didn't expect you to make it exactly according to my design...As expected of you, Young Miss, at least in terms of talent, you should be the only person in this world worthy of my recognition."

"Hmph, don't you even know who I am?"

Emerald stood with her hands on her hips, beaming with pride.

She felt the same way about old Langdon; he was arguably the most talented researcher she had ever met in this world. Now that her own talents were being recognized by him, she was quite happy.

However, this topic also stirred something in Amelie's heart, reminding her of another woman.

So after Langdon finished testing the new body's performance, Emery asked curiously:

"Speaking of which, old Langdon, do you remember Debbie Slater? She was a huge fan of your talent and secretly had a crush on you!"

"Yes, I know she has a crush on me, which is why I didn't hesitate to end the collaboration and get rid of her. Although she tried to hide it, her heartbeat, breathing, body temperature, and even blood pressure would change every time she got close to me, and I still found out."

Langdon's tone was quite casual:

"Women in love are too troublesome, they only affect my research progress... Actually, she is quite talented, but unfortunately she has developed feelings for me that she shouldn't have."

As he spoke, old man Langdon glanced at Amelie again with his magical perception, as if using his gaze:

"In this respect, Miss is still the best. People say you are a womanizer, but that's not true at all. Knowledge and power are your top priorities."

"Don't talk about me like I'm some kind of rabbit head!"

Emery rolled her eyes, then her tone became slightly more serious:

“Seriously, old Langdon, how much do you really know about Debbie Slater? She did something really strange the other day, and she always likes to be a riddle-maker…”

Then, Emery recounted all of Debbie Slater's suspicious behavior in detail to old Langdon, and then asked:

"So? Do you have any leads, old Langdon?"

"...She's actually started doing that."

This time, old man Langdon paused for a moment before speaking in a complicated tone:

"Actually, the reason I drove her away back then, besides discovering that she had a crush on me, was that she and I were not on the same wavelength. She was crazy and an idiot!"

"what?"

Emery opened her mouth slightly.

How crazy must someone be to be considered a madman by old man Langdon?

"So what? What's the deal with her?"

Amelie became even more curious.

"I don't know the specifics, but it's probably that she or the Slat family obtained some information about prophecy through some special channels."

Old man Langdon thought for a moment and said:

"In short, she believes that at some point in the future, all magic practitioners will perish, and all civilizations based on magic will be destroyed. Only those who reject magic will be able to pass on civilizations."

"So, completely opposite to my goal, Debbie's aim is to remove the influence of magic on humans through biological research, turning magic-affinity individuals and even mages into magic-repellent individuals. What else is that but madness?"

"As for her kidnapping everyone from several magic-repelling villages... she probably kept them in some secret place for observation and experimentation. She probably wanted to see if the magic-repelling people could develop another path of civilization without relying on magic."

“Miss, you’ve discovered that Debbie’s spending on magic rejecters has increased rather than decreased. This must be because those magic rejecters she’s imprisoned have made some progress in technological development, so they need more resources.”

"...So that's how it is?"

Emery frowned; she really hadn't expected the answer to be like this.

This is a plot and setting that was not mentioned at all in the original game.

It seems the investigation into Debbie Slater and the Slater family needs to be carried out further, at least to figure out what that intelligence, which appears to be some kind of prophecy, is all about.

Because of the existence of magic, most of the true prophecies in this world are quite accurate. If there is indeed a catastrophe targeting those who possess magic in the future, then Emerald must prepare in advance.

After asking about Debbie Slater, the next step was naturally to assign jobs to the new cattle and horses.

Old Man Langdon has obtained the new body he wanted, and now he must conduct research according to Emerald's requirements.

After a moment's thought, Amelie handed an old man Langdon a bottle containing a liquid flame, brimming with life force—the original liquid flame of vitality.

Previously, Viliana and her group had been conducting research on the Liquid Life Flame, hoping to make it work more efficiently through alchemy and potion-making, but unfortunately they haven't made much progress so far.

The members selected for the Elven Royal Guard are naturally all geniuses, but there are differences even among geniuses. At least in terms of research and development capabilities, no one can currently compare to old man Langdon.

So Emery suggested that old man Langdon also try from a biopharmaceutical perspective to see if he could develop something amazing new using the liquid life force.

After finding out exactly what the Liquid Life Flame was, old man Langdon became very interested and immediately began his research.

Emerald had only been home for one night and was planning to sneak into the dressing room of the Blue Star Dance Troupe to ambush Sulina when she received another call from old man Landon, asking her to come over and cooperate with the research.

...Who is the boss anyway? What employee would dare to ask their boss to be their assistant?

Despite her inner grumbling, Amelie went to old man Langdon immediately to assist him with the research.

There's nothing we can do about it; after all, Emery is currently the only user of holy magic in the world.

In Langdon's new idea, a special material is needed that can only be created by users of holy magic.

Holy water.

Holy water, simply put, is water infused with the power of the deity they worship by priests through prayer, giving the water various effects depending on the deity's power.

The divine blessing that Amelie received was light and fire, and the god who bestowed this blessing upon her was likely a goddess of light or a sun goddess.

Therefore, the holy water created by Emerald through devout prayer has a healing effect equivalent to a top-tier healing potion, and can also restrain and inflict additional damage on dark and undead creatures.

Liquid Life Flame also possesses extremely high levels of fire and life attributes, so old man Langdon wondered if he could mix Liquid Life Flame and Holy Water in a certain proportion to obtain a new substance with even more powerful effects.

Amélie also approved of this idea, so she readily agreed to participate in the research.

However, the spell to create holy water was too useless for Amelie. Not only did she not inscribe the spell in the Heavenly Wing Saintess, she also did not learn it herself.

The fastest way is to inscribe the [Holy Water Creation Technique] into the Heavenly Wing Saintess, but unfortunately, the Heavenly Wing Saintess was severely damaged in the battle with Machira and is still under repair. It is expected to take several more days to complete the repair, so it cannot be used.

Therefore, Emerald had no choice but to start learning the [Holy Water Creation Technique] on the spot.

Fortunately, this spell is not difficult. It is only an intermediate spell in holy magic. Amelie can understand the theoretical knowledge at a glance. The only problem for her is the level of piety.

After all, Amelie's soul originated from a materialistic world and country, making it difficult for her to have a particularly devout faith in the gods.

However, Amelie also faced the gods after her death. Although she can no longer remember what the gods who sent her to this world looked like, she knows that the gods do exist.

The foundation of materialism is seeking truth from facts. Regardless of the nature of deities, as long as deities objectively exist, they are also materialistic, and it is only natural to believe in them.

It took Amelie about half an hour to adjust her mindset. She offered a prayer to the unknown goddess who had blessed her, and even took a bath and put on a nun's habit while praying.

The prayer was very effective. However, after the first prayer, the large vat of water in front of Emerald changed. Under the influence of divine power, it turned into holy water with healing effects comparable to top-tier healing potions.

The old man Langdon, in his laboratory form, immediately extended a tube, inserted it into the water tank, and drew up some holy water for testing. Afterwards, he exclaimed in surprise:

"As expected of the young lady, the quality of the holy water you created is so high... If you weren't truly the young lady of the Melson family, I would have suspected you were a saintess from some church in another world. How could your talent for holy magic be so high? Our world doesn't even have any religions..."

"This is my talent."

Amélie stood up triumphantly, snapped her fingers, and instantly changed her clothes, switching back from her nun's habit to a scarlet evening gown.

"This holy water should be enough for your research, right? I'm going back now."

. . . . .

Langdon's research abilities are truly unparalleled.

Four days after obtaining the holy water from Emerald, he sent another message, saying that he had achieved what Emerald wanted, and arrogantly named the new achievement the panacea.

Emery, of course, rushed over to verify it immediately, and she found that Langdon's naming was not an exaggeration at all.

The panacea made primarily from Marcy's liquid life flame and Emerald's holy water is indeed very powerful.

If its effect were described using the original game's description, it would mean that drinking it would remove all abnormal statuses and restore the user to full health and mana, while also granting a very powerful continuous healing buff and immunity to negative status effects.

It's no exaggeration to say that having a bottle of panacea on you is equivalent to having an extra life.

Moreover, the panacea's healing ability for the physical body has reached an absurd or exaggerated level, beyond description to the point of regrow flesh and bone.

Amelie herself conducted the experiment with old man Langdon. They collected some bone fragments from a corpse that had been dead for at least several decades and then applied a bottle of panacea to those bone fragments.

Then a miracle happened—in a divine glow and flames brimming with life, the bone fragments were restored to a perfectly intact body, exactly as the corpse had been in life.

Moreover, all the physiological functions of this body are fine; it is only because it has no soul that it cannot move, just like a new computer without an operating system installed.

"If that's the case..."

Amelie suddenly felt a surge of excitement. She took a deep breath, told the old man Langdon to continue his research, and flew directly towards the sea.

She flew effortlessly to the central area of ​​the pirate island, where all sorts of magical traps that would be deadly to outsiders had no effect on Amelie. Some of the undead guards would even kneel down and say, "Welcome, young lady."

At the top of the magic tower, Amelie met the old witch Granny Ya, who had recently returned from the Eastern Kingdom.

Having spent so much time alone with the woman in red, the old lich was clearly in a good mood. He was humming a little tune to himself, seemingly lost in some sweet memories.

"Grandma, Grandma!"

Amelie immediately pounced on the old lich, grabbing his bony arm and saying smugly:

"I've come up with something great that might give you back your whole body."

"……oh?"

The old lich paused for a moment before stopping the little tune he was humming, glancing at Amelie, but not appearing particularly excited:

"What new toy have you come up with this time? Are you trying to use me as a test subject?"

"This time it's really different, Mommy~~"

Amelie, feigning affection, shook the old lich's bony arm twice and then took out a bottle of panacea from her storage space:

"Look, what do you see?"

"!"

The old lich immediately became serious, took the bottle containing the panacea, and examined it carefully in front of her empty eye sockets:

"This is... a combination of a higher purity of the Flame of Life and holy magic? It seems to have also incorporated quite a few rather rare ingredients. Interesting... How are the experimental results?"

"Fantastic!"

Amelie immediately began to boast triumphantly, recounting to the old lich the several experiments she had conducted with Langdon.

"...Can even fragments of bones from a corpse that has been dead for decades be repaired into a complete body? Perhaps we should really give it a try."

A dark purple light flashed in the old lich's eyes, and after thinking for a moment, he said:

"However, this potion still contains too many holy magic components, which may conflict with my necromancy. Let's try it out for now."

Snapped.

As the old lich spoke, he didn't hesitate to break off a complete rib with his hand, and then absorbed all the necromantic magic and death energy from the bone, turning it into an ordinary bone.

Ameliette understood the old lich's meaning, and took out an oval-shaped bathtub from her personal storage space. She put the old lich's rib in, unscrewed the cap, and poured the entire bottle of panacea onto the rib.

Just like in the many previous experiments, a miracle happened immediately.

Under the combined influence of the fire of life and the divine light, the rib quickly transformed into a hot pink-haired girl with fair skin and delicate bones, lying quietly in the bathtub. She had breathing and a heartbeat, but showed no sign of waking up... because she had no soul.

"Wow... Grandma, you were so beautiful back then, you truly deserve to be called Grandma."

Looking at the pink-haired girl in the bathtub, Emery whistled, her expression slightly strange.

She finally understood why the woman in red wanted to flirt with her the moment she saw her in the Eastern Kingdom, and why the old lich was always jealous.

Because the old lich looked very much like Amelie when he was young, they could easily pass for twins when they walked together.

"Hmph, didn't I say that I was the most beautiful woman in the Federation back then? The line of men who wanted to marry me could circle Sphinx... I killed them for a long time but still couldn't kill them all."

The old lich looked at the girl in the bathtub, his voice tinged with nostalgia:

"So those men are really shameless. They don't like me at all; they just lust after my body and wealth... They're not even willing to join my undead legion and pledge allegiance to me. How can they have the nerve to say they truly love me? Actually, if someone were to volunteer to be my death knight, I might very well give them a chance."

"Uh……"

Emery was speechless, yet also somewhat amused. After thinking for a moment, she asked curiously:

"What about Aunt in red? How did you two get together back then? Was it because of that trip where you caused trouble together and were chased down together?"

"...More or less."

The old lich's voice became unusually gentle, as if the young girl's body before him had temporarily brought back her girlish heart:

"But at first I didn't think that much about it, I just thought of her as a like-minded friend... until the Dao Ancestor's all-consuming sword light crossed thousands of miles and locked onto me, and she stood in front of me without any hesitation, then I... Hmph?"
