Osford's academy is interspersed with stone paths that are paved with red irregular stones, and the ground is smooth and non-angular after being magically trimmed.

On both sides of the road is Osford's specialty Aroma Tree, which is 4 metres tall and exudes a strange fragrance that has a slightly refreshing effect and can be found almost everywhere on the island except the Tamir Forest.

The flowers of the fragrant tree can also be made into a special pastry, the fragrant flower cake, which has a sweet and luscious taste, and is also one of the specialties of Oosford.

On the small stone road surrounded by Qixiang trees, a girl in white passed by, she was wearing a white dress of a first-grade pastor, walking gracefully and gracefully, the breeze blowing, the soft golden hair and skirt fluttered in the wind, and the fallen leaves that crossed between the walks looked chic and elegant.

Passers-by paused and looked at the graceful girl, but the girl did not look back at the others, but walked straight past the passer-by, as if nothing could stop her from taking a step forward.

But as soon as you get closer to the girl, you can hear her muttering: "It's all eggplant, it's all watermelon, it's all radish, it's all cabbage."

The girl was Ellie, who had come to class after lunch with Catherine and Viss in the cafeteria, and she had an alchemy class this afternoon.

And what she muttered in her mouth was an idea that Weiss gave her, to divert her attention and imagine that the people around her were vegetables and fruits.

Ellie felt that this method was quite effective, although she still didn't dare to face the gaze of others, and now she only looked forward and kept covering her head, but she didn't blush and shy like before and didn't dare to look up.

It's just that the eyes are a little stiff, well, that's all......

"Ellie?" Just as Ellie walked forward intently, a voice behind her stopped her, but her tone was a little uncertain.

"Turnips, eggplants?" Ellie was still thinking about it, and after being called, she was suddenly stunned and turned her head, and it turned out that the person who called her was Xilis.

"It turned out to be a watermelon! No, it's Cialis," Ellie's head was confused for a moment, and she almost called out the wrong name.

"Watermelon?" Hylise was confused.

"No, no, don't care about that kind of thing...... "Ellie was startled and quickly shook her hand, explaining this kind of thing would only show that she was stupid.

"yes, okay then." Hylis also saw Ellie on the road, but the girl didn't see her, she walked straight in front of her and looked straight ahead, and what was going on with that walking posture, such an elegant and generous posture was actually walked out of this shy little girl, it was incredible.

But that's the case, and Hillis just called out unsure, maybe it's Ellie's own sister.

But sometimes reality and imagination always clash with each other, and this girl is her tablemate Alicia, although I don't know why the girl didn't see her. Maybe I'm nervous, too.,Eyes straight.,That kind of walking posture should be just a strong self-calm.,According to this girl's personality.。 There was some crankiness in Cialis's head.

"Is Ellie going to an elective?" Hylis remembered the purpose of her trip.

"Well, I took an alchemy class."

"Really? I'm also going to take an alchemy class, so let's go together. Hylis said.

"Okay, I can't ask for it." Ellie was very happy to hear that Cylis was also going to the alchemy class, so she didn't have to go alone, otherwise she would always be a little apprehensive if she was alone.

It's always nice to have a companion, no, it's very nice. Thinking like this, Ellie grabbed Cialis's arm with both hands and hugged it in her arms, smiling and looking very happy.

Cialis just smiled wryly at Ellie's movements. It seems that this girl has been "hard" all the way, she thought.

Chillis looked at Ellie walking with her arms in her arms, and she had the feeling that the two of them seemed to be an intimate couple, and she shook her head after thinking about it, dissipating this strange thought in her mind.

By the time Ellie and Hillis arrived at the alchemy classroom, the class was almost full, and the two girls had to find a seat with a window in the back.

Although there was a lot of eyes to look at after sitting down, Ellie, who was accompanied by someone, was not so timid.

Ellie decided to ignore the gaze of others, she looked at the items on her desk, there was only a red rectangular box on the brown wooden table, Ellie touched it curiously, it was made of wood, and when she opened it, it was all golden sand, the purest kind of particles that were not mixed with other substances, Ellie didn't know what it was for, so she simply closed the lid and waited for the teacher to come.

By the time the class bell rang, it was already five minutes later, an old man with a white beard with glasses walked in, different from Mr. Afimir's reading glasses, the thick lenses should have a high degree of myopia, he was wearing a white robe, the white beard was much longer than Afimir's, the lowest end even reached the waist, it was tied with a blue rope, it was supposed to prevent it from causing trouble when it worked.

The old man walked up to the podium and placed the big two-finger-wide book in his hand on the podium with a snap, and there was a loud bang in the classroom that had been silenced by the bell for class.

Ellie even saw a little fat man in the third row shiver after the book fell, visibly startled by the loud noise the teacher made.

"I'm Simon Tallis, and I'm your future alchemy teacher." He shook his head as he spoke, and there was some urgency in his voice, as if he wanted to finish all his words in a second, but although he spoke quickly, his voice was very clear.

"Time is precious, I won't waste it in my class, and alchemy is a skill that requires interest and study, it is different from the various types of magic you are practicing now, alchemy is a kind of research magic, and its purpose is to explore and discover." "What is alchemy, as the name suggests, the ancient alchemists wanted to refine stones into gold, which was a very shocking and stupid thing at the time, not favored by others, but they succeeded, and this is the prototype of today's alchemy."

"Of course, the current alchemists can't refine it into money, because it's illegal, and there will be obvious traces of alchemy when refining gold coins and other items." Simon reminded the students under the podium when he spoke of alchemy.

He then continued: "And the real charm of alchemy is that it allows you to explore the mysteries of this world and recognize the reality of this world. ”

"But." He paused, put his hands on either side of the lectern, glanced at the crowd below, and after seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, he continued: "Alchemy has an iron-like unshakable principle, and that is equivalent exchange, that is, we cannot refine anything out of thin air. ”

"I don't know how long you'll be studying for the lessons I'm teaching, maybe someone here won't see it tomorrow, but whoever of you excels in alchemy in the future must remember what I'm saying below." "There are two taboos in alchemy, the first taboo is what I just said, you can't refine money." He paused deliberately as he spoke.

"And the second one is the refining of the human body."

PS: I see that I'm going to speed up the progress, and I haven't entered the main story yet......
