"In the past, I have been wondering more than once, Xu Mo, if you will be a super genius who has not been in the mage world for a thousand years." Lucario put his hands on his waist and looked up at the sky, his tone full of inexplicable sentimentality: "But just now, I have confirmed this with my own eyes, and yet it is ironic that you should run away to be the bard of Narausch without using your great talents!"

Seeing Lucario's excited appearance, I only felt inexplicable for less than five minutes after returning from buying materials in a remote town with Luvica, I remember that I didn't cast a single spell during my shopping trip, even if I had to carry Luvica in a state of grief in a half-dragged and half-pulled way, I didn't use flying as a means of movement because of the increase in weight.

"I'm afraid there's a generation gap between the two of us, at least I don't have the slightest clue about what I'm saying to you." After making a stop gesture, I stroked my forehead with my other hand and said with a headache, "Re-examine the situation, remember that you didn't react so violently when you saw my instantaneous magic in the past, what happened today?"

"It's never been about instantaneous magic! No, I admit that it's counterintuitive to be able to perform high-level magic without chanting or casting gestures, but what I'm really trying to say right now is ......."

Since the meeting place was a warehouse rented by Lucario and the local residents to serve as a temporary settlement, Lucario did not maintain the image of a brave man to the outside world in the absence of outsiders, but expressed his frustration of not being able to turn his thoughts into words with his actual behavior, the action of holding his head in his hands: "In short, I want to say that is not this, if I can describe my current mood in the shortest words, then the guy who guided Xu Mo to become a bard in the first place should really be guillotined and sentenced for delaying the progress of the world."

"That's an exaggeration." I waved my hand, smiling wryly at Lucario's exaggerated demeanor.

"Nope. There's not a hint of any joke in what I've just said!"

Probably realizing that no matter how excited he was, he couldn't make me understand the seriousness of the situation, so Lucario took a deep breath and readjusted his emotions before he reached out to the warehouse and asked, "Hello. Try to look at the scene in front of you and tell me what you think at this moment."

Following Lucario's instructions, I looked into the warehouse from the outside of our conversation, and although I didn't think there was anything particularly surprising about it, I replied truthfully: "There is nothing special, the girl in the dress who came with you is still unconscious, and Luvica is staying well, neither going out to raze the town nor killing people to relieve her stress, and is engrossed in tinkering with the stirring sugar in front of her......

"Good. You've finally noticed that the problem is with what you call stirring sugar!" Lucario pinched his sweat in relief and said, "From your reaction, it can be clearly seen that this thing must have been made by you on a random whim, otherwise it wouldn't have been thrown to Luvica like this to pass the time."

"It's not quite right to say that it was a wit, but it's mainly based on the experience of our predecessors." Although Stirred Sugar is a candy of the modern earth, it is not as popular as it is, and it is possible to reproduce it in the Atlas thanks to the efforts of the Dark Priests behind the scenes.

Speaking comes from consciously refraining from using the system. The role of the Dark Priest is not so important these days, except for the fixed task of gathering. At least eighty percent of the staff's roster has gone to R&D personnel or minions, and while the Dark Priests are happy to do their job in terms of observation, they seem to have strayed from their original primary purpose.

"Did you learn from the experience of your predecessors?" Lucario stroked his chin and said thoughtfully, "Xu Mo, as a bard, you have probably read a lot of literature that is not in circulation. Sure enough, there are good and bad things...... No, if you think about it, you'd be better suited to be a mage, but to be a bard would be to waste all the time you could have spent on research."

"You're really obsessed with my career today." I scratched my cheeks, and it was clear that Lucario was emotional, but I couldn't get a clear sense of involvement.

I'm afraid it's also because my ability to manipulate the elements was originally obtained out of thin air. Even if you can make a profit from it, you can't feel the reality of this skill that you didn't get through your own efforts.

"Many geniuses in the world have never realized their uniqueness in their lives, and I think Xu Mo is probably one of them." Lucario sighed, sat cross-legged on the ground, and took out a small wooden basin and a few small paper bags from the space ring, and said to himself: "I feel that I can't explain it clearly for a while, so I just take the stirred candy you brought back from Xu Mo as a ready-made example."

"Oh?" I bent down and watched with interest as Lucario, the heir of the legendary Brave, sat on the ground, stirring sugar with a small spoon.

I have to say that watching an adult seriously play with the DIY candy toys that modern earth gives to children under the age of five is really full of inexplicable joy.

So, while Lucario is busy, let's introduce a little bit about what stirring sugar is.

Stirred sugar, as the name suggests, is a type of candy, but unlike the finished products sold on the market, stirred sugar only provides a container and a powder package after unpacking, and you must make it yourself to really form.

As a DIY candy for young children, the process of mixing candy is not complicated, and it is easy to complete the process by filling the container with water, pouring the powder, stirring, pouring the powder again, and continuing to stir.

I don't know exactly how the color of the stirred sugar changes when the powder is poured and stirred, but it seems that the appearance of the candy is changed by changing the acidity and alkalinity, so that children can feel more novel.

Due to the characteristics of stirring sugar, adults can also participate in the production process with children, so for the sake of being able to have fun with parents and children, stirring candy is also a frequent product purchased by many parents with young children at home.

It's just that the age of the product is applicable......

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but turn my head to look at Luvica, who was playing with the candy in the warehouse, and I couldn't help but feel a chill in my back when she looked focused and surprised by the little thing about the color change.

The only hope now is that Luvica doesn't play too crazy and uses up all the stirred sugar she just bought, otherwise judging from the amount of food, it is estimated that for a long time in the remote town, three meals will have to be stirred to satisfy her stomach. (To be continued......)
