The experimental results were encouraging; the reagent was very safe.
This medicine only targets magic metals; after taking it, the rats remained unharmed.
The question is, will the melting of the magical metal that grew inside the fire giants affect their lives?
After listening, Wang Di stared at Li Aili, saying, "I think we should ask a friend of mine about this."
Long-lived beings always have all sorts of friends.
Wang Di picked up a pen and paper and quickly began writing a letter, muttering to himself, "I'll write to him and ask... I hope he's not dead yet."
“What I mean is, well, you know, that’s the downside of choosing short-lived species as friends. When you suddenly think of them one day… they might have been dead for hundreds of years,” Wang Di said, distressed.
After saying that, Wang Di glanced at Li Aili, as if he wanted to say something more.
Li Aili: "..."
"But this friend should be fine. He is a great arcanist. I met him when I left home to travel."
Li Aili: "Wait, were you just about to say you were going to run away from home?"
Wang Di casually put the letter into the envelope, "I hope nothing has happened to him. There's always this kind of worry about contacting the short-lived species."
Li Aili blew her bird whistle, summoning the diligent 'messenger bird'.
This arcane life form is very magical; as long as you write the mail address correctly and in detail, it will not be sent to the wrong place.
Oops, I accidentally let it slip.
[Because of dissatisfaction with the state of affairs in the clan... I felt somewhat embarrassed to admit that I ran away from home to seek refuge with my cousin.]
Li Aili: "..." I didn't realize you were such a rebellious elf.
"Don't worry, my friend specializes in the field of elemental life."
As darkness fell, it was already dinnertime.
After the two left the alchemy room, Li Aili extended an invitation, "Would you like to have dinner together at the castle?"
Wang Di walked quickly into the forest. "Thank you for the invitation, but I have an appointment with my new friend, the Sphinx!"
He's very interested in my alchemy! I think we could establish an academic exchange conference on alchemy!
Li Aili: "..."
No, wake up!
That winged 'lion' is simply interested in the alchemical knowledge in your head!
Once he's completely drained from you, you'll know what a "one-time friend" really means.
Lee Ellie returned to the castle.
Half of today's castle dinner consisted of delicious snacks.
Conrad said, "Tancal updated their catalog today, and their bakery has introduced several new desserts, all of which are here."
"This is a Tankar Forest Strawberry Cream Baumkuchen."
"This is Tankar chocolate lava cake, made according to your suggestion last time, Madam."
"This is……"
Li Aili rested her chin on her hands and asked politely, "How could he find time to prepare desserts for me while he was on the battlefield?"
Conrad: "..."
Li Aili smiled and pushed away the small dessert in front of her, not wanting to make things difficult for the kind-hearted housekeeper, and changed the subject to a lighter one:
"Conrad, has anything interesting happened these past couple of days?"
A professional butler can switch topics with ease.
Conrad: "In fact, there is one."
Li Aili used a silver fork to pick up the vegetable salad from the bowl.
"The Holy See sent a Holy Knights Order of Light to support the Clark royal family."
"As a result, the Holy Knights were summoned back as soon as they left the Papal Court."
Li Aili: "Why is that?"
Conrad said, "The Shadows' investigation report states that after learning of the Holy See's actions, several temples have shown unusual activity."
Li Aili: "Why are they getting involved now?"
Conrad: "Indeed, it is a mystery. But the result is good. The original plan was to send a regiment of Holy Knights of Light to support the Kingdom of Clark, but in the end, only three were sent."
Li Aili: "..."
Allow her a brief moment of sympathy for a certain emperor.
From a regiment to just three people, the psychological impact is immense. Anyone with a weaker mental fortitude would have collapsed by now.
Li Aili slurped down a bowl of vegetable salad.
The silver fork pierced the last cherry tomato. "Has the Dark Church made any moves?"
Last time, she heard that a marquis had joined the Dark Church.
The Marquis, who suddenly shifted her focus to her career, has been keeping a low profile lately.
There's a saying: "If a naughty kid is quiet, he's definitely up to no good."
What has Marina been up to lately?
Conrad paused, "The message from Shadow is..."
"After Miss Marina secretly joined the Dark Church, she became enthusiastic about hosting all sorts of balls."
Conrad: "Then, select suitable people and secretly recruit them into the Dark Church."
Li Aili: "...Has she always been this bold?"
Conrad paused for a moment, then said, "Queen Melanie helped a lot behind the scenes."
Even Conrad had to remark, "They are very good at 'picking their targets'."
Today's main dish is seafood risotto served with garlic fried chicken.
The fried chicken was prepared by Li Aili with verbal instructions to the kitchen staff. Don't ask her why she didn't do it herself; the answer is that the chefs were desperately trying to stop her.
The breadcrumbs for the fried chicken were made by the chef using Tankar bread, making them exceptionally crispy and delicious.
After hearing Conrad's words, Li Aili felt that the fried chicken in her mouth no longer tasted good, and her emerald green eyes widened.
"Are you implying that Queen Melanie also..."
