After Tuesday morning's class, Isabel made a routine visit to Ivas for dinner.

Isabel has a lot of things she wants to share with Ivasse. From last Friday to today, the topic has been backlogged for four days during the time that the two have not seen each other.

If you put it in the past, Isabel had no idea of time. For her, life is an infinite cycle of repetition, and there is no expectation of the day after that.

But now it's a different story. She looked forward to being promoted with Ewass, and looking forward to their adventures in the dream world and another life together; She is also looking forward to chatting with Ivus and sharing interesting things about each other's lives recently.

Even though this sharing happens every day, the content is very different.

Isabel used to love weekends. For on weekends she could stay in the Temple of Silver and Tin without speaking to anyone. I was there singing, drawing, and playing musical instruments by myself, and time passed in the blink of an eye.

The serenity of her independence always healed her tired mind.

But now that it's almost the weekend, Isabel is going to be in a whack. Because she won't see Ivas for the next few days, and she's getting used to talking to people, and once she gets used to that life, she'll know what loneliness is.

Therefore, Isabel carefully prepares a notebook with a topic plan that she has prepared. She and Eivers are not in the same school, and they only see each other for the three hours or so of noon every day, and they may not even be available in the afternoon—there is often a sudden incident between the two of them.

As a result, sometimes she misses the topics she has in mind. I had something interesting last night or morning, but I forgot to say it after we met, and I didn't remember it until we separated, and the next time we chatted was already a day later...... After doing this a few times, Isabel began to take notes, make some plans and preparations for the chat session, and write down all the questions she thought of or the interesting things she wanted to say.

She had heard last night that Eivas had brought his sister to school. Isabel was curious at the time, because she knew that Ewass's sister was frail and rarely went out to see her.

Now that she suddenly went out, it should be that her illness has finally recovered, right?

Isabel is still quite curious about Ivus's younger sister, because Ivas often uses "Yuli" as a topic. Despite never meeting Yulia Moriarty, Isabel already got to know her to a considerable extent.

Her character...... Feel like you're a little like yourself?

It occurred to me that both of them were friends and had a good relationship with Iwas. Maybe we can have a common topic and become friends?

So Isabel offered to meet Yulia. And Iwass readily agreed.

After asking Ivas what his sister liked, Isabel went back to prepare.

It was only at this time that she realized that she was indeed the princess of Avalon—it should have been a troublesome thing, but she just mentioned that it was ready before the end of the afternoon class.

Although she had the key to 14 Ronin Street, Isabel nervously rang the doorbell at the door in order not to make a bad impression on Yulia.

The so-called heart-to-heart - Isabel thought about it, if it was herself, the door of the room she was staying in would be suddenly opened by a stranger, and she would definitely feel uneasy. No matter who that person was, it would only make Isabel feel subconscious discomfort and resistance.

Fortunately, she lived in the Temple of Silver and Tin, and she didn't have that opportunity.

To Isabel's surprise, it wasn't Lily who came to open the door. It's a cute girl she's never seen before—

Isabel wasn't too tall, and Yulia was half a head shorter.

The long white hair that hung down to the waist, and the bangs that covered the forehead and sideburns made the girl's already small face look even more delicate.

Her eyes were a rare, ruby-like warm hue. Isabel subconsciously thought of the candy she usually likes to eat.

…… Unexpectedly very energetic.

"Sister......

Yulia made a soft voice: "Who are you looking for?" ”

Hearing this, Isabelle's face unconsciously put on a gentle smile.

She wasn't the youngest in the family. In addition to her two-year-old brother, who is still alive today, Isabel also had younger siblings. But now they are all dead.

"I'm looking for Iwas...... At the same time, it's also to find you. ”

Isabel casually opened the door, subconsciously wanting to reach out and touch Yulia's hair—the girl's white hair was not the bone-white white of the old man, nor was it cold and pale. It is a slightly warm feeling, which makes people see the vitality and vitality at a glance.

The satin-like smooth sensation allowed Isabel to transmit a hallucinatory touch to the tips of her fingers without even touching it.

She even wanted to touch Yulia's cheek. She looks so cute, just like her grandmother's cat.

But she thought that was rude—Ivas had said that Yulia was a very shy and timid girl. That would scare her.

"You're Yulia, aren't you," Isabel said softly, "I've got a gift for you......"

As she spoke, she handed Yulia the satchel she was carrying.

Yulia tilted her head slightly while holding her bag, looking a little confused.

"Open it and take a look."

Isabel whispered encouragement.

She was actually a little apprehensive, because she was a little unsure about the gift she had chosen—though Ivas swore that it was something Yulia liked.

But Isabel still thinks it's too strange. Why would a fifteen-year-old girl like these?

Yulia opened her satchel and found three thick books inside.

"The Triumphant Car of Antimony", "The Transmutation of Metals: Special Agents and Modified Metals", "Nether Astronomy".

"It's—"

Yulia's eyes lit up suddenly, and her whole body became excited.

Because these three books are all very famous alchemical works, and they are all books that cannot be bought in Avalon through normal means.

"The Triumphal Car of Antimony" is a sacred text written by Valentine I, the founder of the Kingdom of Star Antimony, and "Nether Astronomy" is an ancient alchemist's summary of alchemy, which regards alchemy as "nether astronomy", corresponding to the true astronomy "upper astronomy".

Transmutation is an alchemical term. It refers to the transformation of one substance into another, the transformation of one element into another...... For example, a particular base metal is transmuted into silver or gold.

In this process, a transformer with mysterious properties is needed. It is a "special agent", which can be modified in large quantities with only a small part of it. Different alchemy processes require different types of special agents, synthesis methods, and dosages.

The legendary "Philosopher's Stone" is the ultimate elixir – it only takes a few small points to convert hundreds of thousands of times its weight into gold. This is one of the three ultimate goals pursued by alchemists.

Its name is equal to that of "life creation" and "universal solvent". The latter refers to a universal solvent capable of dissolving all matter in the universe, returning them to their most basic properties so that any matter can participate in alchemy.

These three books respectively explain the three general directions of alchemy: "spiritual sublimation", "material modification" and "concept projection", which can be said to contain the foundation of modern alchemy.

This is not a popular science book that a layman can read, but something that only extraordinary people who are seriously engaged in the study of alchemy should start reading.

Although this is not a tantric book, if you can fully read these three books, you can also gain at least three mystical skills from them, and thus become a real alchemist.

Yulia has a star antimony version of "The Triumphant Car of Antimony", which is in the professor's collection. She's almost crumbling...... I've turned it at least ten times, and many chapters can be memorized directly.

But she didn't know much about Star Antimony after all.

Even if you look up the dictionary repeatedly, you can't understand some of the rare words, alchemy terms, and coined words in the book. She often pulled Professor Moriarty to help him decipher words and passages she couldn't understand.

The remaining two are not even in the Professor's collection - the former is too basic for the Professor, but it contains a record of the mysterious skill "Material Transformation" necessary for a turned alchemist.

The latter is another field that none of the professors have studied...... It is a mystical alchemy similar to prayers and rituals, using the names and concepts of gods.

These books are simply impossible to buy in Avalon, which is completely forbidden.

There are some in the library of the University of Law, but the books in the library must be returned after they are finished...... This made Yulia a little reluctant. Moreover, Ivas also has his own books to read, and Yulia does not want to use her brother's quota to borrow the books she wants to read.

Yulia flipped through it a little and was surprised to find that they were not typed on a typewriter, but handwritten in full!

The books are written in Avalon, and the handwriting is vigorous. Noted down some notes, corrections, and conjectures in the content—

Apparently, this is the "first translation" of these books in the Avalonian version today.

“…… You should be Her Royal Highness Princess Isabel, right? ”

Yulia didn't dare to pretend that she didn't know each other anymore, and she even felt hesitant: "Can I accept such a precious thing?" ”

She loves them very much. But it is precisely because of this that she can feel the value of these books - and even a little afraid to accept them.

There was always a feeling that I was going to sell my brother after receiving these books......

"It's okay."

Isabel laughs: "This set of books was a gift from the president of Milton University to my grandmother...... Because of her grandmother's educational reforms, alchemy was no longer taboo. In support of this policy, he sent his translated eleven alchemical works to my grandmother, which became the basis for the compilation of textbooks at the Law University of Avalon.

"After the textbooks were written, they became my grandmother's private collection. Later, my authoritarian talent was not good, so my grandmother gave them to me.

"I also thought about learning alchemy. But sure enough, it was still too complicated for me. Ivus says you like alchemy...... It's great that you can like it, so that knowledge is not wasted. It is a real misfortune that such a good book is left unread.

"Keep them in peace, Yulia."

Isabel said softly, "To become a great alchemist." ”

"Thank you, sister!!"

Yulia was overjoyed and carefully put them back in her bag.

Isabel was relieved to see that Yulia really liked the gift she gave.

Ivus was right.

Yulia did love alchemy books......

How could a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl like this kind of thing?

The Moriarty family is not bad for money, and it makes no sense to give away what can be bought on the market, and it will only appear vulgar and tasteless; It's useless to simply send books, because the library of Wang Li's Law University is the royal family's collection of books, and she is equivalent to borrowing flowers to offer Buddha; But Ievas didn't know what Yulia liked - the preferences he gave were weird.

Mechanical, electronic, chemical, paleontological, and most popular should be alchemy-related products, such as alchemy books.

…… Listen, does this seem like something a fifteen-year-old girl should like?

Isabel even thought about it, whether to give Yulia a set of butterfly specimens. This should be considered an ancient creature, and it looks more in line with the aesthetics of girls - it at least looks beautiful.

But she thought about it for a long time and decided to respect Yulia's personal preferences.

So she finally thought of a suitable gift:

- A one-of-a-kind alchemical translation manuscript!

Even though Isabel wasn't very interested in alchemy back then, she felt that it was a very precious gift and treasured it. But when it came to being a treasure, Isabel almost forgot about it, and finally remembered that she still had such a set of books.

Now they can find the right owner for them, someone who really understands their value.

Even if you remove the flattering factor of Yulia...... Isabel is really happy now, too.

This girl is quite cute.

Looking at Yulia, who was holding a book and smiling happily like a little girl, Isabel smiled gently.

She guessed right, she and Yulia would indeed get along very happily!

"Where's Ehuas?"

Isabel asked again.

"My brother is reading," Yulia said as she followed closely to Isabel with her satchel, "and he said yes...... Preparing for your next promotion. ”

Yulia's affection for Isabel has risen a lot.

Not only did she give Yulia the gifts she liked, but her attitude towards knowledge also made Yulia quite fond of her, who had thought that Isabel, as a transcendent of the path of beauty, should not pay much attention to alchemical knowledge...... I didn't expect her to have some research on alchemy.

While waiting for Ewas, she chatted with Isabel. I found out that Isabel actually read these books seriously...... Although she had almost forgotten it now, she could still remember some of it at Yulia's prompting.

Amazing Highness Princess!

Yulia was in awe.

Even herself, she hadn't read many of the books in the professor's study. Either it's an area you're not interested in, it's too obscure to understand, or an entire book is devoted to a small topic in a specialized field......

This kind of book doesn't seem to be as interesting. Yulia's original motivation for reading books was to experience the world...... And the highly specialized knowledge seemed too abstract for her to understand.

So although her adoptive father also gave her some books, many of which were bought from abroad. But Yulia didn't actually finish it...... Still, she brought the books with her when she moved.

And Princess Isabel, although she is not interested in alchemy, she honestly read these books carefully when she was given them. Because it's too serious, it looks like it's going to make people feel a little pity.

Her Royal Highness the princess's personality is quite cute......

Yulia thought to herself.

In the relaxed atmosphere where both of them thought each other was so cute, Lily pushed Ivace's wheelchair and walked over.

After asking Yulia what it was, Ivas thanked Isabel on Yulia's behalf - he didn't expect Isabel's gift to be so valuable, he originally thought that Isabel would send a few hardcover books, but Isabel was so serious when they met her for the first time.

I'll have to prepare something in return, Ivas thought to himself.

But he also fell into the predicament of gift-giving, as a high-ranking princess, what could Isabel not get?

With this incident in mind, Ivas and Isabel consciously or unintentionally brought up the issue of Yulia's enrollment.

"No problem."

Isabel simply responded: "This matter is also left to me...... However, it may be that Yulia will have to take a separate test.

"After all, if she really can't keep up with the course, it won't be good for her learning. It's going to put a lot of pressure on her. Based on her course grades, she will be assigned to a division...... If her level of alchemy is not too high, then it is better to be assigned to the second department to study the basic subjects for half a year, and then transfer to the secret department next year. ”

Her Royal Highness the princess kindly reminded.

She wasn't so timid when she talked to Ivus now. And under the guidance of Ivus, Isabel has come to understand how to use her power wisely.

The biggest change is ...... She no longer heard Ewass' request and immediately went about it in a panic. Instead, I began to try to think about the problem from the other person's point of view, use my common sense and cognition to judge what problems the other party would encounter, and then try to solve them in advance.

Isabel was surprised to find that she was quite good at this.

Although she does not have the authoritarian path of controlling the will of others, guiding others to think, and strengthening their loyalty...... But she has a gift for feeling the hearts of others. It is easy to perceive the hidden true purpose of the other person from the words of the other person.

Not everyone will express their true thoughts in a conversation. Some people can't do it, and some people don't want to do it.

And Isabel, as an "all-rounder", has an understanding of anyone rising at the same time -

Perhaps it is because the interpretation of the heart and thoughts itself belongs to the realm of beauty.

As her conversation with Yulia deepened, Isabel began to feel a little bit of Yulia's essence.

She was vaguely aware of something.

…… Yulia didn't seem to be the fragile and soft girl that Ivas said she was. On the contrary, she has a rather calm ...... Even cold to the heart of ruthlessness.

Yulia has a strong and competitive nature, and she is much stronger than Isabel on every level.

The softness and attachment she shows is not because her heart is fragile...... It's because she has a good opinion of herself, and even more so for Eivus. So in front of the two of them, Yulia was reluctant to expose her aggression-

But what would Yulia do when she faced someone she hated?

Ivas told Yulia to pretend to be cold to her classmates when she entered the school to protect herself...... He always felt that Yulia was weak and needed to be protected. And Yulia is indeed such an image in front of Aihuas.

But in Isabel's opinion, this is not the case.

Yulia may not need to disguise at all. All she had to do was express her true feelings.

Isabel suddenly became a little intrigued.

- She wants to see Yulia go to school. See how she reveals her icy nature.
