Reincarnated as an Alchemist - If i have no cheat then, i just have to make one

The throne room became noisy.

"Can you tell me the details?"

The king asked. I nodded at his question. The room went silent. I began telling them the turn of event from the explosion sound till FIlma and Markha's escape. Of course I skipped few parts regarding Anastasia's true identity and the appraisal skill I had.

"I see, they are gathering the former hero companions. Duke Barselas!!"

The king called.

"Yes, Your Majesty"

A tall man replied.

"Contact the other former hero companions and warn them about the demons' movements."

"As your wish"

Duke Barselas left the venue in hurry.

"General Chime, General Furcas, General Stine, increase the security of the capital. Also, send air mail to the Knights throughout the country about this crisis."

"As your wish!!"

The three solid men were bowing before leaving the room.

"May this one speak, Your Highness."

The Pope I regularly met said.

"Speak up."

The pope glanced at me once before replying.

"In regards of this crisis, I want to ask permission to start the preparation of the hero summoning."

He said.

"I grant my permission."

The king replied.

"Also, regarding the future hero-sama's companions, I suggest that Baron Concerto to be one of the candidates as he possesses great talent."

The pope added.

"Very well. Permission granted."

The king said.

"Also, as the pope, I also nominated the first prince and the third princess as the candidates as well."

He added.

"I can understand the reason you chose Leo. But, why Alicia is also included?"

The king asked.

"Because, I wish to bind the hero using the princess' kindness and beauty."

The pope said. I twitched when I heard it.

"Excuse me, Pope-sama. Are you suggesting to use someone's fiancée to be paired with the hero?"

I asked rather bluntly.

"Are you still insisting marrying the princess after the 'change' on your body?"

The pope asked. It seems like his rotten character had emerged again. He just used the fake smile every time I donated some potions for the church.

"Yeah, I ain't backing off from this engagement at all."

I glared at him.

"I see. But, the princess still has some talent in magic. After her body cured, her growth on magic skill has increased. I'm sure that she would be a top class archmage when she become a hero's companion."

The pope said while glaring back at me.

"In that case I also nominated one of my brats. There's a hunter who has formidable skill under my care."
