Chapter 004: Potions

Through the window, Yuna spotted Eli walking briskly in the direction of her house.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Yuna smiled with satisfaction. She sped out of the house and threw herself into Eli's arms before she could react.

Eli tries to push Yuna away, but when he realizes it's his "own" girlfriend, he gently wraps his arms around her with his left hand and strokes Yuna's waterfall hair with his right hand.

Eli wants to tell Yuna that she is no longer the Eli she likes. But this matter is really difficult to explain, so I can only behave naturally for the time being, and then talk about it when the right time comes.

Fortunately, in Eli's inherited memories, she and Yuna were still at the stage of pulling small hands very innocently, and did not proceed to the stage of more great exploration of the body.

Yuna hugged Eli tightly, Eli was a little overwhelmed, although he had 30 years of life experience on earth, but he was a mother and a single woman, he never expected that he would have an extra girlfriend when he crossed over to another world.

"Eli, I'm sorry for you......" Yuna's voice was low, full of apologies.

Elay was shocked, what was this unfolding......

"He, who is he......" Eli asked slowly, swallowing his saliva.

Yuna looked at Eli with wide eyes, "You...... Do you already know? But ...... How would you know?"

Eli let go of Yuna's grip and didn't nod or shake his head.

"I'm sorry, but the potion was given to my father by Uncle Palmer. ”

Potion, Uncle Palmer? Eli realizes that he seems to have misunderstood something.

"Uncle Palmer told my father that it was a magic potion that could activate the control of the magic in the body. Uncle Palmer also said that it was a coming-of-age gift prepared for me in advance. Yuna continued, "I overheard their conversation, and I thought, since it will soon be mine, it would be okay for me to give it to you now.

So while my father was obsessed with research, I sneaked into his study and 'stole' the potion. I know you've always had a longing for supernatural powers, so I brought it to you yesterday and tricked you into drinking it. I thought maybe you would be pleasantly surprised when you woke up and found that you had awakened your magic......"

It turns out that the bottle of the new drink she made that Yuna gave herself yesterday was actually a magic potion? Eli thought to herself.

Yuna's father, a first-order mage, brought Yuna, who was only one year old, to Tavolib Village and settled there. Even if it's only a first order, Jody Percy can be considered a celebrity in the village of Tavolib, after all, the vast majority of people here are ordinary people. But he barely interacted with the other villagers unless he had to, and his only friends here were Palmer Adams and Spender Griffin.

Jody spent years in his study, studying a few magical books, and over time, his presence became less and less. Yuna, on the other hand, is very popular with the villagers because of her liveliness and cuteness.

The more Eli listened, the more confused he became: "But what is there to apologize for? On the contrary, I should thank you so much." ”

Yuna shook her head, "Father found out that the potion was missing this morning and came to ask me, and I told you the truth. When he heard that I had given it to you instead of drinking it, his expression became very serious, and he paced back and forth in the room, and at first I thought he was just distressed about the bottle of potion, but then I realized that he had caused a big disaster.

Before taking the potion, a physical test must be done, if the magic in the body is not enough, and the control of the magic is forcibly activated through the potion, the potion is equivalent to poison, and when the potion is completely digested in the body, it is likely to kill instantly. ”

Eli suddenly realized at this time that in fact, the original Eli really died because his body completely digested the potion and the magic in his body did not meet the standards on the way to deliver wine with Clappen. It was also at that moment that Mi Jiu traveled into this world and became the current Eli.

Looking at Yuna's worried look, Eli felt a touch of emotion in his heart, and he stroked Yuna's hair, "I'm not living a good life, don't worry." ”

Yuna nodded vigorously: "Father said that if you are okay by dinner today, there is a high probability that nothing will happen." If you're still okay tomorrow morning, you're really safe. ”

Yuna held Eli's hand a little tighter, and there was more hope in her eyes, and she said, "By the way, let's see, can you use spells?"

Eli gestured with his fingers in the air, and recited with vigour:

"I, in my name, call

The power of the storm that pierces the void

Tatsumaki - Summoned!"

Of course, nothing happens, and having magic is a necessary, not sufficient, condition for casting a spell.

"Haha. Yuna's worried look faded as she smiled and asked Eli, "What's that, a spell?"

Eli smiled too, and he spread his hands, "Where do I know any spell, if I have to say anything, it is - momentum." ”

Yuna glanced at Eli with disgust, and then "poof", leaving a little mark on Eli's right cheek.

Eli's head went blank as he looked at Yuna, who looked down embarrassedly, "Just occasionally, hee-hee." ”

Yuna then said, "Come to my house tonight." ”

Seeing Eli's shocked expression, Yuna realized that there was a lot of ambiguity in her words, she slapped Eli a few times, and explained with a red face: "Don't think crooked, my father said, he is by his side, if you have any accidents, maybe he can help." She immediately felt that this was unlucky, "Bah, you won't be surprised, I mean, tomorrow, when my father is sure that you have completely digested the potion and are safe, I can ask him to teach you some spells."

When you learn the spell, protect me, but don't bully me. ”

I've just crossed over to another world, and I'm going to see my father-in-law? Eli sighed in his heart.

He went to the Likeness Hotel with Yuna and told Moira that she wouldn't be home tonight. Moira didn't ask much, but just glanced meaningfully at Eli and Yuna, smiled and told her to be safe.

"I just wanted to learn some magic from Yuna's father. Eli pleaded to Moira. He felt that Moira might have misunderstood his and Yuna's progress.

"I know, I know. Moira looked at Eli with a smile and waved his hand to let him go. Then humming a little song and continuing to entertain the guests of the Elephant Hotel.

Eli shrugged her shoulders and walked with Yuna in the direction of her house, both apprehensive and excited.

In the eyes of the villagers of Tavolib, Jody Percy is a somewhat withdrawn first-order mage, while Palmer Adams, mentioned by Yuna, is just a small trader with some channels in the outside world, an ordinary person.

At this time, in Yuna's home, the third-order mage Jody and the third-order warlock Palmer looked out the window with solemn faces.

"Yuna is her child after all, even though she is only fourteen years old, she is already full of magic in her body. That kid from the Leslie family, after taking the potion by mistake, didn't have an accident?" asked Palmer, confused.

"It's a good thing, but if he gets through the day safely, it won't make me feel too guilty. But that's what puzzled me. One thing we seem to have overlooked over the years is that many of the villagers who have lived here for generations are not simple, just as you look very ordinary. Jody thought to himself, frowning.

"You mean...... But the elder Leslie died five years ago because of a wolf pack, and Eli's mother died of illness two years ago, and if it weren't easy, their lives shouldn't be so fragile. Palmer doesn't quite agree with Jody's claim.

"Who knows, maybe what happened to that kid. He's coming here tonight, and I'll talk to him more. Jody replied.

"With hypnosis?"

"Not really. ”

"Do you believe that prophecy?" asked Palmer again.

"At least a lot of people already believe it. Oh, the warrior of the dwarves, the bard of the elves, the halfling wanderer, the mage of the human race, on the surface, four old friends who are close to each other are here to renew their old relationship, but who knows what camp they represent and what kind of plans they have. Jody said worriedly.

Palmer also sighed: "This is just the beginning, as more forces come over the mountains or across the sea, this village, I'm afraid it won't be able to stay......"
