Chapter 192: Leading the Way

Light-colored cotton sheets, dark wooden floors, and neatly arranged utensils in a small space.

This is a mid-range hotel room.

After entering through the window facing the street, Valera put the potion materials she had brought with her in the drawer of her desk, and casually created some traces of life by the way.

Winter, winter, winter.

It didn't take long for the expected knock on the door to sound.

Valilla came to the door, twisted the handle, and opened the door, only to see that it was the expected young face, black-haired, brown-eyed Burton Brooke knocking on the door.

Because of her relationship, this young man's life has completely deviated from the original trajectory.

The door opens.

"Mr. Lexar!"

Burton saw that it was Mr. Lexar, who he hadn't seen for a long time, and suddenly burst out of surprise from the inside out, overflowing from the facial features, and his eyes seemed to be shining through.

"Well, come in."

Valera smiled and nodded, her smile a hint of closeness and approval, as she stepped out of the way.

In the room, the two sat facing each other and talked.

After a long chat and answering a lot of questions with half-truths, Valera began to get down to business.

"Burton, do you have any plans for the future?" She asked.

"Plans?" Burton was a little surprised by the question, "I don't have any special plans, maybe I can save enough money to start a family?"

He sighed, shook his head, and continued with some emotion:

"Actually, when I used to work in the dockyard, I didn't even think about it, I barely thought about it, at most I thought about drinking a bad rye beer when I had spare money......

"Later, the experience in the first half of the year, the words that my husband said...... It was like a dream, the deepest nick of my life, but alas, it shattered too quickly."

"Your grammar seems to have improved a lot." Valera couldn't help but praise it.

She couldn't tell whether she was genuinely complimenting, or trying to interrupt the memory that she was a little ashamed of, or both.

"yes." Burton nodded, "It's all Miss To's blessing.

"Although the time spent working in the Miss's Mansion was a bit depressing, I must honestly say that she was really good to people.

"Not only did the salary be higher than before, but the young lady also asked the housekeeper to teach me grammar...... After feeling my progress, I rediscovered hope in life."

When Burton's feelings were relieved, Valeera smiled and said:

"Burton, you may wonder why I asked the question, but after listening to what I said next, you should understand."

"I'm going to give you two suggestions," she said, looking at Burton, "or rather, a choice."

With Burton's somewhat puzzled look, Valera continued:

"The Kingdom should soon enact the Unified Examination for Government Employees, so that you can study harder on grammar and prepare for the exam in advance to become a government employee.

"That's the first suggestion, the sound advice."

Hearing this, Burton somewhat understood what Valilla meant.

He thought for a moment, and suddenly a question arose, "Mr. Lexa, I think your grammar level must be sufficient, will you take this exam?"

Valera shook her head, "No."

"Why?" Burton asked.

"This brings us to the second suggestion," Valilla said, looking at Burton, her tone becoming solemn, "and this is a secret of mine."

As Burton looked serious, Valeera asked:

"Have you ever heard of the Extraordinary?"

……

After a while, Burton unconsciously rubbed the small piece of cold ice in his hand, thinking and choosing in his heart.

After Valeera's explanation, he recognizes the mysterious side of the world.

It turns out that many of those legends are true......

It turned out that the "ghost" who attacked Mr. Lexa in the first place was actually another extraordinary person......

It turns out that it is for this reason that Marker became so fast......

It turns out that Miss and Mr. are extraordinary companions who uphold the same philosophy, so it is no wonder that Mr. would let us join Miss at that time......

"I've figured it out." Burton looked up.

He looked at Valilla and said word by word:

"I choose to be extraordinary."

Valera stared at Burton silently, not speaking for a moment.

Burton didn't shy away, but looked back at Valeera, fully demonstrating his determination.

"Alright," Valera nodded with satisfaction, "you lived up to my expectations."

As she spoke, she took out the two extraordinary traits she had put in a while ago from the desk drawer and placed them on the table.

"They each represent an extraordinary path, the crimson one is the 'Hunter' and the azure one is the 'Knowledgeable', and you can only choose one or the other."

Valera briefly explained the abilities of the "Hunter" and "Knowledgeable" paths, and finally said:

"I think 'generalist' is more suitable for you, but it's your freedom to decide which one to choose, and I won't interfere."

"I'll pick blue." This time Burton didn't think about it for long.

Valera nodded again, "Okay."

She took out another tube of distilled water from the drawer, moved the tin can on the desk with all the auxiliary materials in front of her, opened the lid, and poured 80 milliliters into it.

In order to keep the recipe secret, Professor Portland put a lot of thought into this tin can.

Its inner walls are uneven, and there are many closed or open chambers, which are said to contain unrelated materials, preventing Valilla from analyzing the formulation of auxiliary materials.

All Valilla can do is make a complete "Knowledgeable" potion by adding pure water and extraordinary properties to it through a small pre-set spit.

Click.

The extraordinary properties of the azure blue were finally placed into the tin can, and it slammed into the inner wall with a soft sound.

Valera picked up the tin and shook it gently.

Soon, the specially made tin can began to emit a clear blue glow, like the reflection of a pool.

The "Knowledgeable" potion is complete.

Burton watched inexplicably, his eyes full of surprise.

Because there was no recipe and the process was very simple, Valilla did not explain it in order not to affect Burton's confidence.

She poured the potion into the glass on the table—the finished potion was a single piece, and there would be no wall hanging—and she carried it to the mirror, reaching out and caressing the mirror.

Immediately, in the dark glow of the mirror, the image of the potion lit up with a green glow.

This means that the potion is correct.

"Drink it, and you're a 'generalist.'"

Valera smiled and handed over the potion, reminding, "Remember what I just said, concentrate, and endure a moment of pain."

Burton nodded, took the glowing potion inside, and drank it down.
