After Reincarnation, I Was Turned Into a Slave Maid by the Princess – Chapter 38

Chapter 38 Magic Gems

“Ah, ptooey! So salty!”

Lonis regretted it as soon as she tasted it with her tongue.

Because the sensation was like drinking a large mouthful of seawater, making Lonis pucker her face in disgust.

Elus, on the other hand, had a schadenfreude expression and burst into laughter:

“Haha, as expected of a fool maid, so stupid?”

“Th-that’s because you made me eat it!”

Lonis retorted pitifully. She didn’t dare to advance and fight Elus… she could only wait with her big eyes, looking at the black-haired girl with great resentment.

“Hmph, that’s to let you know. Even if they are both water magic gems, their types are vastly different. If you don’t know how to distinguish them, don’t use them blindly… If you use Tide-calling Stone when cooking, I will torture you severely.”

“Wuwu…”

Lonis lowered her head, quickly put aside the Tide-calling Stone dipped in her saliva, and asked, “Th-then, how was this Tide-calling Stone obtained? Is it naturally occurring?”

“It naturally occurs, and it can also be produced in professional factories. As for the principle, it’s very simple, and I believe you, a fool maid, can understand it.”

“Uh?”

“Compression of matter. This Tide-calling Stone is obtained by compressing tens of cubic meters of seawater. And what is so-called Fire Crystal? It is obtained by compressing several tons of combustible material at the moment it is ignited.”

“Ehh?!”

Lonis’s eyes widened in surprise. She never expected magic gems to be like this!

This was somewhat different from her impression of physical laws, but what Elus said next made Lonis even more stunned.

“Of course, this compression is not purely physical compression, because that would become a substance similar to a neutron star… This compression is the energy conversion generated by the ability of a certain four-dimensional space.”

“Wuwu… wuwu?”

“According to the resonance effect of gravitational waves and matter, theoretically, all things can be compressed into magic gems, such as plastic magic gems, radiant magic gems, black hole magic gems, and weak-submissive maid magic gems.”

“What do you mean by weak-submissive maid magic gems!”

“However, because the processing and production of magic gems is a very tedious process, humans can currently only produce a limited number of universally used ones. Among them, Fire Crystals are mainly used as fuel for various equipment and for warming; Crystal Stones are mainly used for agricultural irrigation and water transportation; Scenic Stones are mainly used for aircraft and firearm launches; Thunder Crystals are mainly used for factory power supply and interrogating criminals.”

“Oh…”

Lonis blinked her eyes. She seemed to understand something: no wonder Elus’s mobile phone could shoot flames, it seemed to have a similar effect.

“Therefore, in today’s world, magic gems are also known as the ‘second currency’ besides gold and silver. Some rare types of magic gems can even sell for a great price.”

“Then, then when we were in the Snow Capital, didn’t we collect a lot of Ice Crystals… can they be sold for a great price?”

Lonis thought very simply. If Elus had money, perhaps she wouldn’t be so harsh on her.

Perhaps she could even hire a maid with that money, and her own life would be much better.

However…

“No, there’s only a little left in the Royal Capital.”

“Ehh?”

“Cru arrived there before us and scraped clean all the magic gems in the vicinity.”

“H-damn it!”

“However, I can teach you how to distinguish various magic gems. In the future, when you are in the wild, keep your eyes wide open and observe. If you collect enough magic gems, I can reluctantly give you some rewards.”

“Rewards…?”

Lonis was now apprehensive every time she heard the word rewards, fearing to hear the buzzing sound of the switch.

However, Elus handed her a table, which read:

Slave Maid Reward List, Magic Gem Edition

1 ordinary magic gem —– 1 point

1 large magic gem —– 5 points

1 rare magic gem —– 25 points

1 holy/abyssal magic gem —– 1000 points.

Point Rewards:

Exchange for a new pair of stockings, 20 points

Exchange for a new pair of high heels, 50 points.

Exchange for a new maid outfit, 100 points.

Exchange for a new casual outfit, 300 points.

Exchange for a gorgeous Gothic dress, 500 points.

Title promotion to Honorary Slave Maid, 1000 points.

Looking at the content of these rewards, Lonis felt completely toyed with by Elus.

Is this some kind of 18x eroge? Why are the rewards for her all doll-like female attire!

She’s not a girl, receiving a little skirt wouldn’t make her happy at all… well, she probably wouldn’t be happy.

Besides, what’s the difference between an Honorary Slave Maid and a Slave Maid?

They are both slaves!

Lonis wanted to express her dissatisfaction with a hateful gaze, but when she saw the last page, she froze.

Because it clearly stated.

Freedom, and the chance to turn back into a boy, 100,000 points.

Although 100,000 points sounds like a lot, it’s not unreachable if compared to magic gems, is it?

It only takes 100 abyssal magic gems… Although she didn’t know what those were, they shouldn’t be hard to find, right?

Of course, Lonis didn’t know.

Even a skilled gem collector could only find about 5 ordinary magic gems a day.

Holy/Abyssal magic gems are even more rare treasures that are hard to come by… Some people may not even see one in their lifetime.

This means,

Even if Lonis were a skilled searcher now and found 5 a day, with very good luck, she could only find 2000 magic gems a year.

She would have to work continuously for 50 years to meet the point requirement and have the “chance” to gain freedom and turn back into a boy.

And what this chance exactly is, the final right of interpretation belongs to Elus. (In fact, Elus would never let Lonis turn back into a boy, she was just teasing her.)

But Lonis didn’t know all this now. She just knew that she finally had a chance…

To get rid of her female identity!

To gain freedom!

To not have to wear such shameful skirts every day, to not have to walk around with a pair of boobs sticking out all the time.

She wished she could jump up and kiss Elus’s toes… The originally evil black-haired girl actually seemed so approachable in her eyes.

“Master Elus, wuwu…”

“What is it?”

“You, you are too kind to me! I don’t know how to thank you for this…”

“Hmph, that look is disgusting. Weak-submissive maid, don’t come near me… Class is about to start, I’m going to lecture you on how to distinguish different magic gems.”

“Mhm mhm!”

With motivation, Lonis felt she was learning very quickly.

Although there were many types of magic gems, divided into 5 major categories, 13 minor categories, and 156 rare types.

But the silver-haired girl only glanced at it and remembered the general idea.

Not only did she remember, but Lonis could also draw inferences and ask key questions:

“Um, Master Elus! What is the difference between Thunder Crystals and Electric Crystals…?”

“One is natural, the other is artificial. Electric Crystals have more stable energy and can be used for long-term power supply. However, Thunder Crystals have short functions and unstable frequencies, making them suitable for weapons.”
