SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar

Lemi gave a huff as she neared the completion of her work.

It was an Automaton unlike any other she had ever created.

It looked strangely humanoid—other than its metallic complexion and robotic look—it was more akin to the Race she had always been curious of.

“I’ll call it Charlie, maybe?” She murmured, looking at its exposed chest.

Embedded at its center—and connected with tons of wires—was the gem she had temporarily misplaced.

It served as the Automaton’s power source and would energize the circuits so it could function properly.

“Hmm, just a bit more in the design department… and I’ll add some more functions as well…”

Her goal was to make the perfect Human Automaton. That meant she had to ensure every single function, expression, reaction, and action of the Automaton was well synced.

If it couldn’t pass for a regular person, then there was no point in it.

‘Artificial intelligence is quite a chore…’ The Half-Elf sighed to herself, her black and white hair swaying as she drooped her head.

The hair had a straight line that separated both monochromes, and it looked quite strange how distinct they were.

The same applied to the violet and blue eyes she had on the left and right side of her face respectively.

‘Mom says I take after dad with the air and eyes, but…’

It wasn’t like there was a picture of him she could use as a reference.

“Haaa… this sucks.” She looked at the unfinished Automaton.

In her 400 Years of life, Lemi had created many things, but most of them couldn’t be perfected

It wasn’t because she wasn’t brilliant, or because she got lazy mid-way, but the simple fact was that she was all alone.

There was a limit to what a single person could accomplish.

Besides, materials concerning theories and mechanics were very limited in the Elf Kingdom, so she couldn’t exactly prove her theories beyond what she already knew.

It was frustrating, but Lemi had reached a deadlock in many things.

It wouldn’t be long until the same happened to the current project in front of her.

‘Damn… if only there was a human specimen I could observe—or someone who could serve as my assistant…’

Unfortunately, none of the Elves were interested in that sort of thing—not even her cousins.

They did their best to help, but it was mostly out of fun and not commitment.

Lemi couldn’t blame them, though.

Just as they weren’t into her stuff, she too wasn’t interested in a majority of the Elven culture.

That was probably why she was still unmarried despite being over 400 years old.

‘Isn’t there someone? Anyone?’ The Half-Elf was desperate now.

Still, she knew her wishes were made in futility.

How many times had she gone down this trail of thought? Lemi lost count.

She learned the hard way that such thoughts were useless. After all…

‘… Someone like that won’t simply appear out of nowhere.’

>CREAK<

The door to her Workshop opened, and two individuals entered the vast room.

One was someone she recognized quite well—her Aunt. Seeing the woman always brought her great joy.

“Auro—” Before she could complete her statement, Lemi’s sharp eyes wholly spotted the other individual behind her.

His blond hair and charming features drew her notice. However, what was more important was the weird feature that made him different from every other person she had seen this far.

“Ears… your ears…” Her whisper was strained, and her heart was racing faster than it ever did before.

Lemi felt like she was hyperventilating when she was overly excited, but this was even beyond that.

“Lemi, calm yourself. I brought him here from the Eastern Kingdom. He’s a—”

Before Aurora’s rushed introduction was completed, the Half-Elf raced to meet the human with immeasurable speed—according to her.

>WHOOOOOSSSSHHHH!<

In an instant, she was right in front of the guy—who was most likely not older than 16 Years by human standards.

Compared to an oldie like Lemi, he was no more than a child.

“Humaaaaaaaannnnnn!!!” She shrieked, circling him like a hungry predator observing her prey.

Even though she was older—by far—no one who had the privilege to observe the situation could ever think so.

While the human boy gave a relaxed look and smiled, Lemi was busy lost in her assessment of the fine specimen who had indeed fallen from the sky.

Her prayers were finally answered—also according to the slightly delusional Half-Elf.

“Control yourself, Lemi. At least let me finish my introductions.” The Elf Queen sighed, looking at Lemi’s rushed behavior with a shamed sigh.

The older Elf was most likely mortified by her niece’s childish and mannerless actions.

“A-ah, forgive me…” Lemi had enough common sense to see she that was overdoing it.

But, that was only after she was stripping the human and touching his bare chest.

‘A-ah, maybe I went a bit too far…’ And so, upon realizing the error of her ways, the predator stepped away from her prey.

“Sigh, this child…” Once again, Queen Aurora looked mortified.

The gentleman in the room didn’t seem to mind, though.

It was either because he was a simple perverted who had been enjoying how the Half-Elf massaged his chest… or he simply thought it wasn’t a big deal.

One glance at the rubbery smile plastered on his face would tell anyone that it was the former.

“This is Jared Leonard, a delegate from the Eastern Kingdom. And, yes, he’s a human.”

That was the most important part of the introduction, so the Queen indeed saved the best for last.

“For real? For real? You finally brought one for me! A Human! Finally!”

The human looked charmed by how she jumped with glee. Clearly, he too was happy about the new life that awaited him with her.

“How long have I waited for this moment!” Lemi rushed to the human once more, observing his features with her eyes.

He was an optimal male—perfect for her uses.

“So, I can keep him, yeah?” She looked at Aurora, her aunt for permission.

She had gone through the trouble of granting her long-held wish. It was only courtesy that Lemi act like the good niece she was.

“Erm, no… it’s not really what you think…” Aurora hesitated once the question was raised.

Even the gentleman had a raised eyebrow.

‘Hm? Weird… what’s going on here?’

Didn’t her Aunt explain to the human already?

“But, I told you how much I wanted a human specimen. Why else would you bring him here?”
