"Ash, you're saying what kind of transfiguration potion did you use?"

"Hmm. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"It turns out that there is such a magical thing in this world!"

Migrena was so surprised that she couldn't help but touch Ash's face with her hand.

David laughed and grabbed her and said, "Is this one of the pharmacy taught to you by your mentor?" ”

"Yes."

Vivien's gaze through the lenses was full of adoration, and she said, "Ash, your mentor must be a very powerful pharmacist. ”

"Oh, no, it's supposed to be a thief and a pharmacist!"

"It's really amazing. I've never heard of a face-changing potion. ”

As for the statement that Ash and the mentor lived in seclusion and went out of the mountain to practice, everyone had no doubts. There are many strong people in this world, and the stronger the person, the more eccentric the temper, and it is not impossible to hide in the deep mountains and old forests with an apprentice for decades.

The attitude of several people has not changed because Ash's appearance has become ordinary, Migrena still treats her as her own child, and David and Vivien are still affectionate to her, which makes Ash breathe a strange sigh of relief.

She raised an eyebrow, not knowing where the emotion was coming from. Just like the existence of the exposed space ring before, it feels like a burden has been put down in my heart, and I feel very comfortable.

"Hehe, if you want me to say, you are at ease."

"Peace of mind?" Why?

Pink Jingjing smiled happily, "Actually, you must be very concerned about their opinions in your heart, so you have this kind of emotion." ”

In other words, Ash has already admitted the David family, and this fact was pointed out by Pink Jingjing, and Ash couldn't help frowning.

Does she care what these people think? Incomprehensible and unimaginable, Ash couldn't help but rub the corners of his forehead.

This time, it was Pink Jingjing's turn to be puzzled and asked, "Ash, why are you so bothered?" ”

"Why not try to try to open up to them?"

"David, they're all good people."

The elves have not been in contact with the outside world since they were young, resulting in their lack of adjectives, and they will only describe others with good guys and bad guys, but Ash knows that Pink Jingjing really likes David's family.

It's just that... Is this kind of feeling called peace of mind?

Ash pressed her chest, she didn't need this emotion, she shouldn't have it. As the number one killer in the interstellar world, she has been taught the most to be ruthless and ruthless.

Only when there is no concern can you be ruthless.

But why, somewhere in her heart, is enjoying this strange emotion?

After a pause, Nossisi said, "I think that no matter what the ash becomes, the ash will be the ash, and that will never change. ”

"Those people must have thought the same, so they didn't care about the change in Gray's appearance at all."

Am I who I am?

Ash in a trance, when did she have a self?

Feeling Ash's dazed mood, Pink Jingjing was overwhelmed, she didn't know what they said to make Ash feel like this.

I had to keep comforting Ash with Nossisi.

"Well, Ash is a good man."

"Well, I don't like to talk much, but I'm very gentle."

"Will help our elves carve wood carvings, will help the baby fish clean up the waterhole, and the gray gang will fight to pick the pine tower."

"Also, Ash is very smart, we can't even think of problems in our heads, and Ash can solve them at once."

The clumsy comfort of the two elves injects a hint of warmth into the heart of the discourager.

She didn't know what was wrong with her, it seemed that somewhere she didn't know, something was happening that she couldn't stop. The previous one who could not change her face even if Mount Tai was on top of her seemed to be gone.

She hadn't felt it before, but now she clearly felt that the simple words of the elves could easily shake her heartstrings.

Pink Jingjing and Nossi's heartless language are like a seed of change, planted deep in the bottom of Ash's heart, just waiting to slowly take root and sprout.

Annotby and Molika were taken aback to see Ash again, and their eyes lit up at the same time, pestering Ash to teach them to change their appearance.

"Annotby, what are you going to do to change your appearance?"

"Isn't that what I want to do with one more skill?"

"Forget it, I think you just want to show off!"

"Hmph, don't think I don't know, you don't want to change your appearance and run away from home!"

The two of them looked at each other, eyebrows to eyebrows, and suddenly laughed at the same time, and turned to entangle the ashes together, as if they had the purpose of not giving up until they got the potion.

Ash didn't refuse, she made a few more copies of this potion, and directly threw two bottles of potion to the two of them, making them smile very much.

"I really didn't expect Ash to even understand pharmacy." Molica sighed, and Chere's eyes flashed behind her.

He had never heard of a potion that could change a person's appearance, and this human woman made him even more incomprehensible.

No one expected that today's whim of the two of them begged for a potion to change their appearance, which played a major role at the critical moment later.

Neither Molica nor Annotteby drank the potion directly, but carefully put it away.

Suddenly remembering something, Molica turned her head and asked, "Chere, what do you think of Ash's new image?" ”

In a word, everyone's eyes immediately glanced at Chere.

Chelley's expression didn't seem to fluctuate in the slightest, shaking his head and being silent, making Molica cut in boredom.

Only he knew in his own heart that he felt that looking at this human woman was more pleasing to the eye than before.

Why? Is it because her current appearance shows off her eyes even more?

Black eyes are indeed different, but this will not be the reason for the inexplicable emotions in his heart.

Cerley felt that something was wrong, and he felt that he should not have followed Molika here anymore, but he couldn't say why. Remembering Morica's mother's plea for him to protect him, he chose to remain silent.

Noticing the curiosity in Vivien's eyes, Gray Fingers moved slightly, and a row of bottles immediately lined up on the table.

Annotteby's eyes immediately became straightforward, since the gray no longer hid the role of the black crystal ring a few days ago, they knew about the existence of the space ring, but every time the gray used it, Annottebi couldn't help but salivate.

The Space Ring, it's a priceless super item, as long as he thinks that the gray finger is wearing a treasure with countless zero suffixes, he can't help but stare at it in a daze.

David advised, "Ash, don't use this ring in front of others. ”

"Yes, yes, there are a lot of greedy people, especially weak magicians, who need this kind of thing that can carry a lot of things. If you let them know that you have such a powerful spatial ring, you have to kill people and take treasures. Molika also understood the truth that wealth was not exposed, and hurriedly added.

Ash nodded, thanking the two for their concern.

"Ash, what the hell are these?"

After all, Vivien was only a 16-year-old girl, and she couldn't resist her curiosity and asked questions as she looked at the bottles and cans of various colors on the table.

Ash replied, "Blue Mana, Red Heal, Yellow Strength, Cyan Agility." ”

Migrena didn't understand these things, and Vivien and Annnottby had Ash's eyes light up every time she said a word.

On the contrary, David and Molika's faces sank.

David said solemnly, "You made these things?" ”

Ash nodded, and Vivien and Annottby looked suspicious, not understanding what David was doing so nervously.

Molica opened the yellow bottle, sniffed it, and said, "This is a strength amplification potion, if I'm not mistaken, the other ones should be mana recovery potion, wound healing potion, and agility amplification potion." ”

"And judging from this condition, I guess that these are more effective than the drugs on the market."

Vivien and Annotby exclaimed, as if they understood something.

Just now they just thought it was an ordinary recovery potion made of ash, how did they know that these potions were so powerful!

On the market, just a bottle of primary mana recovery potion costs 10 gold coins, and they are all monopolized by magicians. What's more, there are very few pharmacists who can make primary recovery potions, but Morica tells them that Ash is not only a powerful pharmacist, but the effect of making potions is better than that on the market?!

The two of them glanced at each other, and both saw the worry in each other's eyes, and Annott said, "Ash, you must not tell anyone that you can concoct these potions." ”

"That's right, no one would set a senior pharmacist free." David said.

The reason why he knew this was the knowledge and experience he had accumulated from traveling all over the continent, but Molika not only knew these potions at a young age, but also could see how effective they were, if it weren't for the experience accumulated over the years, then she must have been exposed to them and seen these potions before saying so.

But David didn't say anything, just buried the doubt in his heart. Whatever Morika was hiding, she was part of their family, part of their brave mercenary group.

The eyes of several people were sincere and honest, which made Ash feel soft somewhere in his heart.

Then, Molika suddenly smiled and said, "But since it was a gift from our family, how could we not accept it." ”

She snatched the three bottles of the power amplification potion, David "hey" twice, and took a step slower, so he had to grab the healing potion in front of his door.

Molica smiled like a stealing cat and said to Anoterbi and Vivien, "What are you doing?" ”

"Huh? Yes! ”

Naturally, the agility amplification potion was given to Annotby, the little thief apprentice, and the mana recovery potion was given to Vivien.

Vivien, who was usually shy, seemed to be drunk, her eyes staring at the crystal blue liquid in the bottle in her hand, and her cheeks were covered with red, as if she didn't believe that it was the legendary magic recovery potion in her hand.

And Annotby, who has already grinned to the root of his ears, can't close it.

Several people joked with each other's strange expressions, and even Migrena couldn't breathe with laughter.

The dreary air was swept away, and the whole courtyard was filled with happy air echoing.

In the fairy space, Pink Jingjing and Noxisi's eyes revealed funny and envious emotions, but they liked David's family more and more.

Ash looked at David who tried to convince Molica to change the bottle of potion, looked at Annottby who was discussing with Vivien how to use the potion, and looked at Migrena, who silently guarded several people with gentle eyes, and wanted to laugh for no reason.

A strange emotion, the muscles at the corners of her mouth and cheekbones seemed to be out of her control, and she couldn't help but smile softly.

Cerley was the only one who noticed Ash's smile at that moment, and at that moment, he found that his heart felt like it had skipped a beat.

The human woman was obviously not outstanding enough in his eyes, but when she smiled, those calm and waveless eyes would exude a charming brilliance, like a lifeless painting, full of life.

This made him unconsciously unable to take his eyes off.

It's weird, he's in a weird mood.

Cerley tried to turn his head away, but his thoughts and movements were completely opposite, and his gaze was still glued to Ash's body.

"I want to go to Midtown."

After a moment of silence, Ash looked at Molica and said, "Vivien said you had a pass. ”

Molica nodded, her pass could not only enter Midtown, but also Upper City, but she believed that Ash would be tight-lipped if she found out, so she handed it to her very quickly.

Anyway, even if she didn't have a pass, with Chere's face, she was unimpeded, so it wasn't a big deal to give Ash.

It's gray, what are you going to do in Midtown?

Molica's gossip came up and hurriedly asked.

Grayway, "Library, read books." ”

"Huh? Are you looking for any information? ”

"Hmm."

"Then I recommend the library of the Academy of Magic, which has the most complete collection of books in our entire country."

Speaking of which, Molika realizes that Ash doesn't seem to be going to school.

Everyone was also aware of the problem, and David and Annotby glanced at each other, and instead of discussing the recent mission, they leaned over and asked, "Ash, do you want to go to school?" ”

Although David's family is not thick, it should still be possible to go to school if he is scraped together.

Ash glanced at David, her expression was slightly puzzled, according to her observation, Vivien did not go to school at all, but studied with a junior water magician, and school has always been a place to burn money, and their family should not have the financial resources for people to go to school.

David's expression was a little embarrassed, and he said, "It's not long, and it will only be able to provide you for a year, but it doesn't matter." ”

He smiled, "I'll take on a few more tasks to earn back your next year's tuition in the first year, and in the next year, I'll earn the next year's tuition." ”

A few simple words, but they made Ash's heart ripple like stagnant water.

Faintly, before she realized it, the corners of her eyes had curved, revealing a soft smile.

"No, I don't like school."

"Huh? What a pity! Molika lamented that she still wanted to be an alumnus with Ash.

Leaving David's family for a while, Ash went to the library in Midtown.

Compared with the lower city, in the eyes of the gray, the middle city is not much worse, but because of the more gardens, fountains, and environmental greening, people look a lot more comfortable, plus most of the people here are well-dressed, the roads are wide, and the buildings are magnificent, and the overall atmosphere makes people feel several grades higher than the lower city.

The library in Midtown is a small square castle building, which is the difference between sesame seeds and mung beans compared to the library in Downtown. According to Molica's analogy, the library in Uptown is a soybean, while the library of the Academy of Magic is a flatbread.

The library has only two floors, and in the middle of the hall on each floor is a chair for sitting and reading, and there are also folding desks on the windowsill between the bookshelves and the shelves, so you can take a break or stay to read.

The bookshelves in the hall are built around the pillars and are rectangular in shape, and the other books are neatly arranged and densely arranged on oak bookshelves.

Pink Jingjing and Nossi looked at it from a different angle than Ash, and what they noticed was the relief carved into the ceiling, and the large frescoes interspersed between the bookshelves, which were so beautiful that they couldn't take their eyes off them.

In addition to the natural light from the two-story arched windows, the library is also hung with tall chandeliers, and at night, crystals can be lit up with light magic to illuminate the entire floor.

(The description of the library is slightly borrowed from the structure of the Abbey Library of St. Gallen)
