After Malinda slept for a short hour, there was a knock on the door to her study.

Knock, knock!

"Your Excellency?"

Outside the door, the cook Mary asked.

Malinda quickly rubbed her face to dispel the tiredness on her face, and then picked up her pipe.

Tobacco to cheer up Malinda's spirits.

"Come in, I'm awake."

Malinda said.

Mary, the cook, walked in with the food.

Large portion of boiled beef, fresh cherry tomatoes, pickled shallots, cucumbers, turnips, and a cup of espresso coffee.

This is the recipe requested by Malinda.

Coffee is for a pick-me-up.

A large amount of fruit is helpful for her who stays up late in a row.

And beef?

It is necessary for the body's energy.

With no knives and forks, and no etiquette, Malinda shoved the food into her mouth with her hands, her eyes on the letter Mary had brought in.

Looking at Arthur's signature, Malinda was a little surprised.

And after seeing the contents of the envelope, the lady laughed.

I saw that the letter said-

Dear Malinda,

Can you prepare some reading essentials for me?

I feel like I deserve it.

What do you think?

Always look forward to Arthur.

……

There is no specific date, but the handwriting ink is very new, and there is a hint of cocoa and sweetness.

Malinda's mind was already thinking of Arthur writing a letter to herself while drinking hot cocoa.

"When was it delivered?"

Malinda asked.

"Fifteen minutes after breakfast this day, delivered by the newsboy on Kirk Street."

The cook replied very accurately.

"Oh, clever and calculating fellow."

"Go to the warehouse, in the sixth drawer of the third row of cabinet 2, get a potion and give it to Arthur."

"Let Edwin deliver it himself."

Although Malinda expressed her dissatisfaction, she was not stingy.

"Yes, sir."

The cook walked away quickly.

Malinda didn't tell her too much.

For Malinda, Mary the Cook and Edwin the Coachman are both people she can trust unconditionally.

As the study door closed, Malinda picked up the letter again.

Marinda, who was distracted by many things and had not rested for several days, was not careless, and she carefully read Arthur's handwriting.

Clear, steady, without the slightest scribbling.

She raised her hand to the letter paper and felt it.

Confidence!

Full confidence!

No temptation!

Undoubtedly, Arthur knew that [Tufuyu] needed to be learned with 'fragrance'.

Although the formulas of each association and genre of 'fragrance' are different, except for the slight differences, the main effect is to isolate 'prying eyes', and there is no restriction on its use.

Of course, when meditating, you have to be consistent with the genre.

But most people don't know that.

Only the real mystical side people know.

"The Credos family?"

"Sure enough, that old Charlie is the mysterious side!"

"The departure of Drake and Kassandra should be due to the fact that old Charlie has discovered some clues about the beginning of the battle between the earl and the old lion, and wants to reduce the loss of the Credos family."

"As for the Winters who left three years ago......"

"Baker Farm?"

Malinda's face was solemn, and she unconsciously picked up her pipe and took two heavy puffs.

As the smoke rose, recalling some information about Baker's Farm, the lady couldn't help but frown.

There......

It's scary!

She definitely didn't want to get involved!

However, Malinda immediately smiled.

The lady thought of Arthur again.

"Old Charlie, you may have estimated everything, but you definitely didn't estimate the age of your grandson, that Arthur, right?"

"Young Arthur is more showy than you think."

Malinda muttered softly to herself, as if she thought of Old Charlie's shocked and helpless look when he learned the news, and suddenly felt very interesting.

Immediately, she tugged on the handle on her desk.

The bell that connected to the other end rang.

"Your Excellency?"

When the waiter entered the door, he bowed down and asked.

"Help me contact the editor-in-chief of the daily newspaper South Los, I think Arthur. The story of Credos deserves to be published in the daily newspaper Nanlos. ”

Malinda said with a serious face.

"Yes."

The waiter bowed again and left.

Malinda chuckled as the door closed.

For a while, the fatigue of continuous work has subsided a lot.

Malinda continued to work on the follow-up to Coaster, Aemond's Suicide, which was two large chambers of commerce and a dozen small and medium-sized chambers of commerce.

And she had to be able to straighten it out in the shortest possible time.

Only in this way can the maximum benefit be obtained.

Of course, she would never take something she shouldn't.

After all, the countess was no fool.

"Those guys are about to take it anymore, aren't they?"

"Come on! Come on! ”

"Don't let me down!"

Malinda thought of something, the smile on her face became more and more intense, and the pen in her hand was like flying.

For a while, Malinda was in a good mood.

Similarly, Arthur was in a good mood.

The potion that Edwin had just delivered proved that what was written in Gram's diary was true—and while everything was the spoils of his own hands, who could guarantee that Gram wouldn't lie?

After all, no one keeps a diary for a serious person!

Therefore, Arthur can only be reassured by confirming it again from Malinda.

And most importantly, of course: the potion in your hand!

Unlike the empty bottle of [Apophis' Saliva], which only had a label left, the details of the potion given by Malinda appeared as soon as they got their hands on it.

[Name: Orunkate's Medicine]

【Type: Elixir】

【Quality: Secret Method】

[Attribute: Isolation]

[Note: Before the collapse of the Holy Empire, someone discovered that if you don't prepare, you will be subjected to terrifying peeps, but the Holy Empire does not admit this, but unfortunately the Pope's majesty is not enough to cover up the whole thing, and more news began to spread, and the leader of the 'cat faction' from the 'Cat Cave', Aurunkite, was the first to create an effective way of isolation - the secret potion. 】

……

[Isolation: Taking 15 ml of secret medicine will keep you unnoticed by those beings for 1 hour]

(Note: This is a 30 ml tube, but only contains a standard 15 ml solution)

……

"The scent of cat pie?"

"Good luck!"

Surprise flashed in Arthur's eyes.

As for the behavior of Malinda, a white prostitute?

Speaking seriously, it is not a prostitute in vain, because Malinda tried to use [Tufuyu], but she 'owed' him a personal favor, so she naturally had to compensate.

But Arthur still felt happy!

Then, Arthur's gaze subconsciously looked at the book that recorded the [Cat Cave Doctrine. Remnants].

According to Grom's diary, it contains at least one ordination ritual that reconciles the 'spiritual'.

This is especially important for him!

And the [Oriental's Medicine] obtained from Malinda's hands is also derived from the "Cat Pie" extended from the "Cat Hole", does that mean that Malinda has more things about the "Cat Pie"?

Or even something 'cat hole'?

Thinking in his heart, Arthur couldn't help but have some plans in his mind.

That was for later, though.

Right now?

After learning that learning [Tufuyu] would not increase spirituality, Arthur was relieved and boldly walked to the secret room with [Orunkite's Medicine] and the basic [Tufuyu].

As described in Gramm's diary, he chose a secret room that was opaque and windless, and after drinking the potion in one gulp, he chose to study against the basics [Tufuyu].

And then—

Darkness is coming!
