Chapter 342 - Holy Brirus Empire(Part-1)

Ryuu step to the side while bowing his head slightly as an older copy of Hiro stepped inside but unlike the jovial look on his son's face, his was a bit stoic as he stepped inside the room he was followed closely by what seemed like a goblin shark on two legs, the 'Empress' along with another that looked like a puffer fish.

The Emperor looked with fascination as the large dry room was being filled with water and by the time the Emperor and his entourage had entered the room was already full.

The Emperor looked at him with slightly wide eye as he spoke, "Amazing, but why did you leave the safety of the water the place above the water is poisonous."

Ryuu gave him a small placating smile as he spoke, "Your Majesty, we are land dwellers which means we live above water as such we are adapted to stay out of water without any problem."

The Empress whom Ryuu had dubbed as Mrs. Goblin-shark spoke with surprise evident in her voice, "But how there is no land above the water?"

Ryuu looked at her as he spoke with a smile, "Your Majesty, we are not from this place we are far far away from this place and now we are stranded here searching for a way home."

The Puffer fish on two legs spoke for the first time, "Is that why you have two unknown appendages on your lower body?"

Ryuu nodded at that as he spoke, "Yes ma'am it helps us to walk on land, but please pardon me if I am a bit rude but may I inquire about you identity."

The puffer fish was startled at that as she spoke, "Ah please forgive me, my name is Jorah and I am the Royal Alchemist."

Ryuu's eyes widen at that as he spoke with a smile, "That is wonderful to meet a fellow Alchemist I hope we can get to discuss on Alchemy."

The woman nodded at that as The Emperor spoke, "Honored warrior you said that you two were stranded here are you two alone or there are others with you."

Zywia who was listening to them frowned, 'How can I understand them perfectly?', she was about to ask Ryuu only to held her tongue, 'How stupid and idiotic I can be of course I can understand them after all this room must have some form of Array placed by Ryuu.'

Ryuu nodded at his question as he spoke, "Your Majesty both of us were in a competition along with a large number of people, what I know is that many of them have been stranded here along with us but I do not know how many."

The Empress spoke with concern in her voice, "We hope that our people will not have much problem with your kind."

Ryuu grimaced inwardly as Zywia spoke for the first time, "Your Majesty we are sorry to disappoint you but not all people who have been stranded with us will be good, some will try to plunder your beautiful kingdom and harm your people."

The face of the Emperor scrunched in deep thought before he spoke, "Then what about you two?"

Ryuu looked at him directly in the eye as he spoke, "Your Majesty our wish is simply a way out of your world nothing more nothing less, and if while staying here we manage to do something good, well that is cherry on the top."

Jorah looked at him directly into his eyes as she spoke, "You must be a well versed in alchemy to detect his Majesty's condition even from 100 meters away."

Ryuu shook his negatively as he spoke, "I have much to learn about alchemy compared to my seniors I am just an infant."

The Emperor looked at him directly in his eyes as he spoke, "So can you heal me."

Ryuu replied with a smile, "Maybe I can, I will have to first detect what kind of poison that is infecting you."

The Emperor closed his eyes briefly as he spoke, "Fine, what do you need?"

"Your Majesty I need your blood", no sooner did he say that the Empress protested at that, "Our Royal Husband, please reconsider."

Ryuu looked at her as he spoke, "Your Majesty if you are concerned that I might harm him then please have the Royal Alchemist Jorah collect it for me, a single drop would do as I need to study it to find the poison."

The Empress replied back with a sigh, "We will allow it, Jorah help him."

"Your wish is my command your Majesty.", with that Jorah stepped forward as with great skilled pricked the Emperor's hand to draw blood using a shell like structure as she turned to give it to Ryuu, she was stunned as she looked a bubble that had formed around Ryuu as he spoke, "Jorah if you would please."

Jorah nodded at that as she put the shell like structure inside the bubble of air that was surrounding Ryuu's hand as he spoke, "Just put the drop inside the bubble."

As Jorah put the blood inside the bubble a circle of array formed above Ryuu's palm causing her to swim back with great speed as she took guard in front of the Royalty who themselves tensed ready for attack, Zywia almost snorted at that before she controlled herself but Ryuu did not pay any attention to them as he focused on the blood sample in front of him.

'Hmmm blue blood, I have heard that the Royals are said to be called 'blue blood' but this is really hilarious, but still the copper contained in blood is higher as such it is blue.'

As he dissected the blood he came across some form of greenish specks inside it as he mused, 'Hmm oxidation of copper is taking place, that is something not good at all.'

Ryuu was standing their silently for over 5 minutes as the array spun in a circle above his palm as it was flashing into myriad colors, and those minutes were the longest for the Royal couple, they reason they sought out Ryuu so fast was because they were simply grasping straws like a drowning man trying to survive in vain, the Emperor knew his end was nigh but because of his wife he had hoped to survive and live.

Ryuu suddenly laughed out loud as he spoke, "incredible such a brilliant poison."

A small cough from Zywia brought him out from his loud musing as he looked towards a bug eyed group who were looking at him incredulously as he cleared his throat as he spoke, "Well I have found the poison well it is actually a c.o.c.ktail of various things that are not poisonous by itself but upon reacting with your blood had caused a reaction to occur that has been oxidizing it into which is precipitating all over your veins as such causing various health hazard to occur specially when your own body's immune system is considering it to be useful and others as health hazard,", he paused for a moment to let what he had just said to sink in before he once again began with a reassuring smile, "Rest assure I have the cure now would you want a faster but extremely painful solution or slower but a painless solution."

The Emperor mulled over his choice as he spoke, "Well if you can we would love to take the faster but at the same time I do not want others to know that I am cured, I hope it is possible."

Ryuu looked towards Jorah as he spoke, "Well as long as my involvement is not leaked I can with the help of your Royal Alchemist can manage it very easily but I would warn you since you have chosen the faster please brace yourself for a pain like you have never felt before."
