To my dearest sister:
I do have a little tool that can help you with this, sister. For various reasons, it's inconvenient for me to take it out of the Tankar Forest. So, sister, you're welcome to come to the Tankar Forest.
There's one more small thing I'd like to trouble you with, sister.
Sister, could you make me an alchemical potion that makes people tell the truth?
Your dearest brother-in-law, Fisher-Nankey.
“A potion that can make people tell the truth…” Li Aili began to think about the magical plant that could be used to concoct this alchemical potion.
The Duke, glancing at the newspaper, said in a casual tone, "Guess who our brother-in-law will use the medicine on?"
Without even thinking, Li Aili replied, "Ah, I can't think of anyone except Alice..."
Li Aili, realizing what was happening, was speechless.
So, she asked, bewildered, "Why did he give Alice this to drink?"
The Duke calmly turned a page of the newspaper. "He certainly has a lot to want to know."
Arthur casually gave a few examples, "For example, 'How many ex-boyfriends have you had?' 'Who are your ex-boyfriends?'"
Li Aili: "..."
Li Aili: "!!!"
She took a deep breath and asked hesitantly, "Do you think I can make him forget about this by using the giantification potion and the shrinking potion?"
After reading the last page, Arthur closed the newspaper and casually put it aside.
"My dear, what do you think... those elves are carrying all those bags and packages to the Tankar Forest every day through caravans?"
Li Aili: "…………" Is Alice alright?!
She should probably figure out how to make a bottle of 'fake medicine' to help her half-sister get away with it!
The Duke glanced at the time, stood up, and said, "My dear, I must go to the Knights' training grounds."
He bent down and gently kissed Li Aili's forehead. "Don't worry too much about the gift. Even if you go empty-handed, he will be more than happy to help."
After saying that, he put on his cloak and left the restaurant.
Li Aili also returned to her room.
Looking at the time, 24 hours have passed, and the backyard should have been successfully upgraded.
As soon as Li Aili entered the alchemy room, she received a notification.
The backyard has been successfully renovated and upgraded.
[The backyard's daily yield has increased by 6% due to the upgraded soil.]
The upgraded backyard will randomly generate special events.
[Please resolve any special events as soon as possible to prevent damage to the magical plant.]
Li Aili: "..." The last one made her so angry she almost vomited blood.
Her reputation is worthless!
What a terrible misfortune!
Li Aili immediately ran to the back garden to check.
The garden area remains the same, but the soil has turned red, and magical plants grow on the red soil, with only one of each kind growing there.
Li Aili: "???" What happened to the promise that the plants I didn't have time to collect wouldn't disappear?!
She picked the nearest 'blood-red thorn' plant.
When you cut a plant, it's one plant, but the moment it hits the ground, it becomes a whole bundle.
[Perfectly harvest 657 of the troublesome magical plant 'Crimson Thorn'.]
Li Aili: (⊙o⊙) Stunned!
For that reason alone, spending the reputation points was worth it.
The workload for data collection has been greatly reduced every day!
Otherwise, she would have to pick the blood-red thorns 657 times.
But a problem has arisen: now there are very few magical plants in the ground, but once they are harvested, they fall to the ground in bundles.
By the time she has collected all the magical plants from the ground, the refrigerator will probably be bursting at the seams.
Li Aili: "..."
Today isn't the day the mysterious little truck comes.
With no other option, Li Aili could only pour bottle after bottle of ice potion down her throat, freezing the magical plant she had collected into a giant block of ice.
Plants used to make magical potions like 'healing potions' are packed up and sent to the elves' alchemy workshops so that the elves can improve their skills.
Similarly, the two apprentices in the central city couldn't be idle either.
Give half of each magical plant to the second apprentice so he can teach the eldest apprentice alchemy, instead of letting him spend all his time secretly knitting sweaters!
Also, her two 'disciples of the Light Gate' and ten thousand kinds of magical plants, carry them on your backs.
Memorize everything for the exam~
From now on, there will be an exam every Monday. Before the exam, make two bottles of punishment potion. Whoever does poorly on the exam will drink one bottle. If they do poorly on both, then they'll drink both together.
Busy until lunchtime, the Duke's helpless voice came right on time from the Dragon Gem Necklace: "Come out and eat."
"Right away, right away! Ah! I have a lot of potions here, can you help me carry them?"
The Dragon Gem was silent for a moment before Arthur's voice came through.
"You come out first."
Confused, he put down his work and left the alchemy room.
Arthur sat in the restaurant.
Her jet-black hair was still damp, and she smelled of lemon soap.
He took out a somewhat old jewelry box, placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of Li Aili.
"What's this?"
She opened the jewelry box, and inside was a vintage-style gemstone ring.
Arthur said calmly, "A spatial ring."
Li Aili: "?"
Arthur lowered his eyes and said, "Use it to bring out those herbs."
Li Aili frowned slightly.
Does this mean she should use her spatial ring to move it herself?
Arthur Cold Jade's tone was ambiguous, "Ellie, you can't tell anyone about this, especially not me, understand?"
Li Aili was stunned.
She truly hadn't expected that after giving him her trust, he would actually refuse.
