Bab 551: 551. Ajax, the sneaky boy?
*Pop*
Ajax appeared inside Phixheim. It was night time right now and he tippy-toed around the place. Sneakily, he entered the castle. The philosopher's stone were kept underground at the lab.
"CAAAAKE... ICE-CREAM... YUMMY" A loud shout came.
Ajax felt his heart nearly come out of his mouth. He scaredly looked to the side and saw Chomei sleepwalking and eating leftover cake from the fridge.
~Dammit, since when did he start doing this?~ he questioned. He rarely woke up in the night when he lived in Phixheim so he had no idea about the night habits of the Phixheim dwellers.
He ignored Chomei and proceeded to the lab. When he was passing by a room, he suddenly heard a gunshot. He jumped up in shock and turned towards the room. He peaked from the slight opening of the door. Inside, he saw Berry and Douglas playing video games together.
~Why are people not asleep here? It's 3 A.M.~ Ajax wondered.
Then he passed by his parents' room. He heard some voices from inside. He recognized them to be Leonidas and Natasha.
"Babe, I am planning on giving Ajax a brother or sister," Leonidas said.
"Ummm... yeah... yes yes... we should give him a sibling." Natasha's muffled voice came.
Ajax was confused outside, ~What is mom eating? She sounds different.~
Then he moved forward. But along the way, he saw another obstruction. Amy was up and working in the lab on something.
~Can I be sneaky enough to get it out safely?~ he asked himself.
He took the risk. He moved as quietly as possible. He was cursing under his breath that he couldn't fly. After 15 minutes, he finally reached the container where the stones were stored. He softly opened it and took out a philosopher stone.
~NICE~ he cheered. But, sad for him, in his moment of happiness, he forgot to close the container quietly.
*BAM*
With a loud noise, the container closed. He was busted.
"AJAX? What are you doing here?" Amy asked him.
He quickly hid the stones and thought of an excuse, "Haha, my favourite aunt, Amy. I was just looking for the weighing machine. I wanted to check my weight. I think I'm getting too fat."
"Oh. You should have asked me then. I'll make one for you." Amy replied and quickly drew a weighing machine. Then, it magically became real. This was her maxed out magical ability. She could now make anything inorganic by just drawing it.
"WOOAH! You are so awesome, Aunt Amy. Thank you." He picked up the machine.
"Where is grandma?" he inquired.
"Oh, she went out for some reason," Amy answered.
Seeing the perfect opportunity, he said bye and ran to his room. From there, he went out of Phixheim.
~Phew... I was lucky this time.~
Due to the different flow of time, not much time had passed in the real world. When Ajax returned, everyone was just eating dinner.
"I'm back," he announced his return.
"Come, eat dinner, kid." Izumi invited him.
He happily went ahead and sat on the chair. Hats jumped over and sat down on Ajax's head. That was his prized throne for now.
He finished his dinner and quickly took out the stone. It was a crystal in random shape. "Here, I got the philosopher's stone for you guys. Though I don't know if it will be helpful for you"
Edward looked at the red crystal in his hand uninterestedly. He didn't think it would really be a Philosopher's stone.
"Ajax, not every red stone is a Philosopher's stone." he shrugged.
"This really is one, though it was just made without human sacrifice," Ajax said.
Izumi saw the stone in Ajax's hand and didn't think much in the beginning. But, then she felt a sudden burst of energy from the stone. It was not easy to feel it but it was there. The energy felt as if it was one with the nature.
"I don't know if that is a philosopher's stone but it is surely something weird. It has some kind of power trapped in it." She spoke.
Edward shockingly looked at his teacher and then at the stone. Ajax gleefully nodded.
"See, I told you. I don't know if you can get your body with this but this can surely make the elixir of life and lots of gold. Ah, look." Ajax turned their metal plates to gold.
"WAIT! you mean, this thing can really make people immortal?" Izumi asked.
"Yes, it does. But, make no mistake. It only stops you from ageing, it doesn't make you invincible. A bullet to the head will still kill you." Ajax replied.
"Magnificent," Edward exclaimed and checked the stone closely. He tried to use alchemy on it.
*BOOM*
Due to Edward using Alchemy on the stone, his alchemy was enhanced. Philosopher's stone was like the best container of magic and it also contains an astronomical amount of energy by simply existing.
Edward wasn't able to control that kind of energy when the stone tried to merge with Edward's alchemy and it ended up becoming an uncontrolled alchemical explosion.
The whole dining room of the house got blown away by the explosion. Edward was saved by Alphonse. Izumi was shielded by her giant husband, and Ajax was too strong to be affected by this.
"Hahaha, this felt so amazing. When I held it in my hand, I felt... Invincible." Edward exclaimed excitedly.
*Bam*
Izumi knocked on his head. "Look around you. All this mess you have made."
Edward did that and realized what he had done. But he was now even more amazed by the stone.
"Teacher, I think this is real." He muttered.
"No kidding. I'm not blind, brat. Now, repair this house." She ordered them.
*Snatch*
She took the stone from him and went to her room to personally study it.
