" Duke Evano Ayan Sky's Last Will? I see ... " The Emperor suddenly stand up and opened a cabinet filled with papers . Clarisse observed the emperor . She asked for the emperor for audience yesterday and here she is asking for her father's last will .
The Emperor sat back again and flipped over the papers in his hand and handed it to Clarisse .
" I, as one of the witness when your father wrote the last will was assigned to become your guardian . His estate will be given to you , the military , businesses , lots . All of his assets will be given to you . The following papers are the deeds for the land , buildings , ownership of his businesses , contracts of the slaves , servants , bank account etc. I hope you manage your assets well "
Clarisse's heart pounded the moment she read the contents . Flipping over the papers calmly , inside in her heart it screamed of excitement .
' Look at this young lass , she doesn't even know how valuable those assets are . It's surprising that she didn't even flinch '
Oblivious to the Emperor's misunderstanding. Clarisse smiled calmly and stood up " I thank you for your help , Your Imperial Majesty " She curtsied
"Hmm"
The emperor observed the lass for a moment before pondering the change . Clarisse is no longer as timid as before . It's a good sign , but what he is pondering is ... What did the lass' ate for her to change.
*Clink
Clarisse slowly closed the gigantic door with her chest moving up and down . She stared dumbly at the folder in her arms with reddened face .
" I finally have my own resources. I need gold coins to buy my own things for the laboratory , hire a blacksmith , craftsman , engineer for my inventions . Devices are important for a western doctor like me. Unlike traditional doctor who can determine sickness just by checking the pulse . Also for severe situation , defibrillators , blood infusions , drugs , etc. I hope I could meet a fellow scientist to work with . "
Clarisse headed towards her room and started writing plans in the future . Based on the story , teenagers like us would then start attending the Academy.
The Academy teaches combats , familiar combats , some other courses , histories , but the science is absent . There's no science .
-__- none .
None
None
(Author: I don't even know science! I only know atom! Shut up, what's defibrillator by the way?)
Students these days liked combats , most of them wanted to be a knight . Swordmaster and serve nobles to earn money and noble title.
Swordmaster here in the feudal empire are admired . They are all muscle brained , countless of wars always happened between the affiliated kingdoms and higher tier empires targeted weak empires .
The Piline Empire is a tier 3 empire , it has 403 affiliated kingdoms . If the empire has 4 high tier Swordmasters it will then be promoted to become a 3 tier empire . There still a lot things that Clarisse didn't know , informations about other things that aren't public couldn't be found in the library , the informations the you could get there are only general knowledge.
" Your Highness , the room has been cleared . What would you like to do with it? " Isha asked
" Let it be for a moment and let's go outside " Clarisse put down the quill pen and put the parchment in the drawer . She stood up gracefully and walked .
Isha is in awe watching the Princess gracefully walking " Hehe , princess-without-memories is so elegant" Isha chuckled and followed tip toeing with giggles.
Clarisse's mouth twitched at the childish maid.
" I'll prepare the carriage immediately , your highness " Isha said and bowed. She disappeared immediately and Clarisse was left alone .
Clarisse thought of the baking skills of the people here . She's sure that bakers here didn't use any baking soda when baking . But instead they used egg whites , but it's too slow and time wasting since they don't have the electric mixers .
" Aaah , living in this ancient era is so difficult . Do I really need to invent new things for inconvenience? Do people here has magic? Right?" Clarisse bump her fist in her other palm .
" Magic? Do they have mana like the fantasy novels from my world ? But then ,why did the world's survival rate is so low . Do mages and cultivators different? Mages also have long life spans right? Or is it just that commoners don't have magic . Or the physician's ability to cure deceases is bad? " Clarisse started murmuring using English language .
The servants strolling around were terrified to hear the Princess speaking in a foreign language.
" W-woah , what does her highness talking about? I couldn't even understand a thing "
" She sounds fancy "
" Is it possible for the Princess to be ... Timid because her mother tongue is actually different from us? "
" Don't kid on me Sandy "
" Hey , you know my deduction skills right? Most of my conclusions are right "
" Well , you really sound smart right there "
" Oh my , we misunderstood her highness "
" We will be killed .... " The two servants are talking while shivering .
A butler heard their conversation and butted in. " What are you talking about "
" Waaa! Oh butler Sebastian! "Sandy , the curly haired maid
(author : wow , SEBASTIAN )
" You're saying , that ... Her highness' mother tongue is different from ours?" Butler Sebastian arc up his eyebrows . The Bob cut haired maid nodded vigorously .
" We heard her talking so fancily .Her voice even change , the .. the uhmm ... She sounds like a matured seductress!" Sandy
" Woi! What are talking about? She sounds like a fairy , talking an ancient language " Joy the Bob cut haired girl said .
" I heard some familiar words from her highness , Hmm , I seem to hear her speaking the word ' mana ' and ' mages ' that's why I'm sure she's not speaking Ill towards someone " Sandy
Butler looked at the Princess who's climbing in the carriage and left .
".... I need to report this his Imperial Majesty " The butler said and left the two servants .
Oblivious to uproar she caused , Clarisse slept inside and waited for the carriage to arrived at the destination .
Yesterday , Clarisse drew designs for her laboratory . She also listed some things such as sulfur , they may not understand what's sulfur but I can request for them to get them from volcanic area . Hehe , sulfur... GUNPOWDER!
Cinnabar if heated up , you'll get mercury . Copper , well if used for electrical equipment such as wiring and motor . It's essential for making devices soon . Most people here don't know the uses for copper except cuffs , bracelets , necklaces etc.
Even quartz sand is needed for her laboratory , she needs beaker for measuring volumes of liquids . Scientists used it for mixing and transferring liquids
Elenmeyer flasks , test tube , pipettes for delivering small volumes of liquids , Florence flasks/ boiling flask , volumetric flask , glass retorts etc.
Well she needed those to produce solutions such as hydrochloric acids , chlorosulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide , etc. To also produce acetanilide , this synthetic organic compound is usually used as an alternative for aspirin in my previous life .
Water corbonator hehe Clarisse wants to drink cola now hehe . Tar , one of the important thing to produce anilin well anilin has a lot of uses but we used it for drugs .
Also carbonated water *hearts* if I mix it with sodium hydroxide , baking soda will be made . Oh my , cake cake!!!!! Cola cola!
" Hmmm!! I miss cola the fc! "
Clarisse's mind is currently filled with chemical compounds now , even solutions , colorful liquids are flying like heaven in her mind .
" I'll use those acids to burn those ugly faces the moment my lab is ready. Get ready for my revenge you BITCH*S "
The man outside whose driving the horse shuddered listening from the Princess' powerful voice inside .
" Her Highness Princess Clarisse is getting scary the more she grow up . I'll make sure to get on her good side . Hoo~ " he wiped the cold sweat dripping from his temples .
( Author : -__- The hell with those chemistries? I don't even understand a thing? Hoi Clarisse! Make sure you're right alright? What are those compounds compounds you are talking about? The author is still a kid! Gosh , I'm still at atoms , protons , in my elementary schooooool)

" M-miss , are you an alchemist?" A blacksmith stared at the design which the girl wearing a black luxurious cloak gave him .
Clarisse's brows arc up hearing those words . What are you comparing me to a fictional job? Alchemist is above science , don't compare me to a fictional character you normie!
" Ha? " But she doesn't know what he meant though , does that mean that seeing those design means that she's an alchemist?
"Base on the legends , alchemy is the second most popular job one could learn . But ever since the war of the great swordmasters and powerful mages , the books containing the information about alchemy were obliterated . Most of the youngsters these days could only produce mild healing potions and the physicians were highly troubled about this since only alchemist could produce the cure that they highly needed . Herbs that were harvested in the forest only has small efficacy ." The blacksmith explained with gloomy face .
" The disappearance of the alchemist meant a lot for an empire . When Alchemist still existed , the survival rate of the citizens high rockets .but not now ,only priests could help important nobilities who suffered diseases . Wood attributed mages are also highly sought . " Blacksmith sighed
" These designs " the blacksmith stared at the girl with suspiciouns .
" Are what we blacksmith only heard in legends . The old monsters said that those glass shapes are so weird that even master blacksmiths and craftsman suffered difficulties .... These designs ... Are so weird that I even suspect you as an alchemist "
" Pffft..." Clarisse couldn't hold her emotions anymore , the seriousness of the muscled blacksmith looked so serious that she couldn't help but force herself from laughing .
" Hahahaha , Mister Olive ... Are you kidding? This child? Do you think I'm smart enough to become an alchemist?"
Blacksmith ' DON'T ALSO KID ON ME KID , BASE ON THESE WEIRD DESIGNS . I COULD GET THE GIST OF WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO DO ABOUT . BASED ON MY OBSERVATIONS TOWARD GENUIS MONSTERS , THEY ARE ALL ECCENTRICS! YOUR DESIGNS ARE ALL ECCENTRIC! YOU ARE CLEARLY SMART ENOUGH TO BE SUSPECTED AS AN ALCHEMIST HMPPP. '
Although he's angered , it's not to the point of stooping so low as to be provoked by a mere kid .
" Then , I'll try my best to make this eccentric ideas of yours " The blacksmith hurrump and turned his back .
" Aaah , this old man is such a tsundere "
