Witcher's Atelier

Chapter 44 The warmest ray of sunshine



The next morning, after drinking milk, Victor walked out of the house, biting a tea egg in his mouth and peeling another in his hand. He wanted to greet this beautiful morning with city jogging and healthy vitality.

In the teaching experiment last night, since Angouleme was not a girl who gave up easily, when the first egg did not react, she continued to put in the second, third, and fourth eggs...

Seeing the situation, the boy touched his nose and let her work hard. He went back to his room early to sleep and make up for the lack of sleep the night before.

Obviously, there was no light in the end, but after adding the salt and other spices that the boy had prepared in advance, she finally succeeded in "braised" a pot of tea eggs.

When he got up in the morning, he witnessed the "success" of the team members and took two for breakfast. The team leader felt fulfilled and relieved.

There is nothing to be disappointed. In terms of probability, the girl is the second person in the demon hunting world to try incredible alchemy. This result is normal. Discovering talent is an accident.

After all, in the alchemy world, incredible alchemy is also a talent of the chosen one.

It was not a sudden impulse to let Angouleme take the test, but a decision made after a long consideration. First of all, she was one of the closest people since the boy came to this world. Secondly, if she could use alchemy, with her natural attributes, she might be able to awaken the voice of a certain type of material, and then quickly surpass herself to become an alchemist.

This idea was the first version of the inference that Victor thought of. People with pure minds and naturalness "might" be more likely to hear the voice of alchemical materials. For example, my grandmother was a natural fool, so she listened to the voice of all things, and my third aunt also had a pure mind, so she listened to the voice of minerals.

As for myself... my mind was complicated, so I couldn't hear anything.

Think about it! If you can listen to the voice of the material, listen to it tell you what its function, efficacy, and what it is suitable for transformation into. The speed of progress in alchemy is absolutely rapid, because it is impossible to put the wrong material.

It's a pity that Angouleme doesn't have an incredible talent──

...

Walking briskly, Victor planned the action plan for the next few days while running, until he passed the headquarters of the Knights of the Flaming Rose, and the orderly ranks of the poor attracted his attention.

Since ancient times, there have been many kinds of good deeds. Although some good deeds may be influenced by moral customs, "feeding the hungry" is defined as an eternal good deed.

In front of us, the Rose Knights are distributing bread under the organization of Knight Jacques. The leader even personally handed the bread to the poor citizens. This is a good deed that symbolizes mercy.

Based on the poor people's grateful eyes and skillful actions of receiving the bread, it can be inferred that this activity is not the first time, and the crowd did not disperse after distributing the bread, but gathered in front of the high platform.

Seeing this, Victor was mentally prepared. Sure enough, the tall and burly Jacques stood up:

"Everyone gathered in front of me. Hungry and fearful. Some mothers still hold their children tightly in their chests.

People of the Temple District, poverty and plague have put you in a desperate situation! So you turned to the Eternal Fire for help, and the Eternal Fire will now give you a response through my hands..."

There was no need to listen any more. Victor walked away. He could fully imagine what would happen next.

Regarding the plague, Jacques will talk about the specific implementation methods of public health, such as home cleaning, burning items that patients have touched, etc., and then use words to package them in religion.

As for poverty, everything is caused by non-human races, elves and dwarves! They use conspiracy to rob honest people of their jobs, and use lending to rob kind people of their bread.

Although these statements are extreme and unreasonable, the people want this answer. They don’t understand or can’t afford other reasons.

For any human in the game, such remarks seem to have no problem. Even Angouleme thinks he is not bad. He sympathizes with the poor, protects the weak, speaks well and makes sense.

But Victor knows that Jacques is lighting a fire, and perhaps it is this spark that ignites the gunpowder barrel of long-standing resentment.

Although it is not certain whether he did it intentionally or out of ignorance, the revelation from the previous life tells Victor that this fire will burn the northern countries red. This is a dangerous person. The boy should speed up and get as far away from him as possible.

At the same time, the sun poured into the house, illuminating the room with a golden color. Angouleme sat by the window of the second-floor room, leaning against the window frame with her right hand on her cheek, staring at the busy street scene in the morning, and teasing Catherine with her left hand unconsciously.

"I failed." She thought.

Although the leader always treated her as a fool, Angouleme felt that she had learned a lot, just like yesterday when she made up a rhyme that was not even a nursery rhyme to coax herself to cook tea eggs. No matter how stupid she was, she knew that normal cooking of food would not glow, okay?

Not to mention that several times before when they camped in the wild, they did not avoid her at all, and took a pot to start cooking and said it was alchemy. Normal alchemy would not glow either, okay! !

In Elland, when she went to steal the formula, she actually observed how others used various instruments for alchemy. The leader's big pot stew made no sense at all.

So she knew that alchemy was the leader's core secret, just like a herbal bag that can hold many things.

So she was very disappointed that she failed.

The leader trusted me and wanted to give me the core secret, but I let him down.

Catherine cried softly, and the flapping of her wings comforted her.

A warm feeling came over her heart, "Luckily I still have you!" Angouleme suddenly reached out with both hands and hugged Catherine, who was unable to dodge.

Catherine struggled only a little at the beginning, and then stopped moving. Instead, she used her iron beak to tap and peck the girl's ears, making them itchy.

The human eagle played for a long time, patted her cheeks to cheer herself up, and the girl told herself that despite the small failure, I, Angouleme Corleone, was still the indispensable chief fighter of the Phantom Troupe.

After releasing Catherine, the girl went downstairs and saw that Victor had indeed gone out for a jog. She had been used to his self-discipline since Vergen. Angouleme picked up the tea egg on the table and peeled it, eating while reading the note left by the boy.

"Tea eggs are delicious when braised, but you braised too many.

Then I will go to the tavern to collect information after jogging. You can go to the market to buy things if you have nothing to do. See if there are any materials that Kalkstein needs. I put the integrated list under this paper.

Also... go home and gather before noon. I will cook something delicious to celebrate our success.

Captain. Wick"

After reading the note, the girl couldn't help but smile with satisfaction. The two former Hansa captains, Geralt gave her dignity and security, while Victor gave her recognition and a sense of achievement.
