Bolton, the Potions Apprentice, is absolutely arrogant, being the disciple of the Potions Master.
Because of his status as a potion master, Bolton, as the disciple of the potion master, rarely cared about the opinions of ordinary people.
When he first heard that the inventor of the magic potion feast was a child, he absolutely refused to believe it unless he wrote his name backwards.
The mentor actually said he would come to Sandy Lane specifically for the genius Ron...
After several days, even the proud Bolton had to believe that there really were such geniuses in the world.
On the road, and even now, Bolton keeps thinking: Why wasn't he the one who invented the potion feast? The principles behind these potions shouldn't be that difficult...
Bolton's assumption was wrong. The potion feast is actually still in its early stages, and its appeal mainly lies in its color, aroma, and taste.
In his previous life, Ron was born in an ancient country renowned for its cuisine. Now, in Sandy Territory, without internet or other entertainment, he simply passes the time and improves his meals...
The dishes were too novel for the people of this other world; they rarely saw such delicious food that was so appealing in color, aroma, and taste.
Adding a few magic potions can also nourish the body; there's no reason it shouldn't be a hit!
For many years, pharmacists have been bound by the rule that magical plants should not be wasted... For various reasons, a magical potion feast was invented by a young boy.
The little genius's collaborator is the daughter of the Tulip family, Yuna, whose full name is Yuna Tulip. She is the second daughter of a noble family with the right to inherit an earldom. After Ron invented the magic potion feast, magic crystals flowed in continuously...
With the count as their backer, it's not easy to force them.
Rumor has it that the count's daughter resides in Sandy Territory.
There are also rumors that Yuna avoided inheriting the title from her brother. How do outsiders know the truth?
When he got to Bolton, he thought that geniuses are always arrogant.
It's understandable to decline a professor's invitation on the first occasion.
And so it was.
Bolton followed Ron and his group without further ado.
That day, Ron brought Vivian along with two guards from Sandy Territory.
It wasn't convenient to get rid of Bolton right away, so I decided to just pretend I didn't hear what he said.
"My mentor is Master Jon, a renowned potion master in the capital. Ron, why don't you consider it?"
"..." Ignore.
"To be frank, the mentor invited you because he intends to take you as his apprentice. What a great opportunity! Back in the day, I, Bolton, wanted to become the mentor's apprentice. I passed many tests and barely made it through."
"..." Ignore. (????)
“Ron, have you heard what I, Bolton, said about my mentor…”
"..."
After walking for a while, Bolton suddenly realized how foolish he was. Why was he talking to a child about this? He should have just gone and spoken to the Baron of Sandy.
After pausing to watch Ron and his party leave, Bolton turned and ran towards the lord's manor.
Ron finally felt some peace and quiet.
What kind of potion master is that? Just thinking about it is a huge hassle.
Because the initial potion feasts focused on their natural flavors, Ron spent some time studying basic potion theory.
Does he really have a talent for potions?
Ron was self-aware and always felt there was a bit of a problem, but people couldn't help thinking he was a top-notch potion genius.
Magic crystals are captivating, and they can also bring a continuous supply of magic crystals for potion feasts. Who says Ron isn't a potion genius? The first person to disagree will disagree!
Ron himself was unwilling to accept defeat.
No way!
I haven't been able to take a break lately, so I've been mostly just lazing around and playing.
We need to study the several potion books that Yuna brought.
I'm hoping... Could it be that I really am a top-notch potion-making genius!
"Young Master, Young Master! Why did you suddenly smile?"
"Vivian, I'm so happy!"
"Is it because that annoying guy left?"
"That's part of the reason. By the way, I have a day off today, so I'll come to your house for a visit first, and then go sightseeing. I should go back a little later today, as it might be a bit lively at your house."
"Yes, young master."
Sandy Territory, the Baron's Palace.
Bolton arrived at the gates of the Baron's mansion.
At first glance, the mansion's appearance was passable.
Because Yuna often came to play that mahjong game, she casually instructed her subordinates to renovate the lord's manor.
Finally, the once-impoverished noble family is showing signs of improvement.
However, Ron refused when Yuna suggested a major overhaul of the Ron family home.
How could that be? He should renovate his own house in the future. Ron was even thinking of designing his own house then, so he couldn't let the opportunity to design his house go to waste.
However, after Bolton entered, he still commented casually, "This is what a remote baronies should be like!"
Although the inner room wasn't luxuriously furnished, Bolton didn't dare underestimate it; this family had produced a potions genius.
Ron's previous indecisive and indifferent behavior only made Bolton believe that this was the arrogance of a genius!
The task of the mentor must be completed. In the future, if the new disciples of the mentor discover any new potions, they should be given a topic for the senior disciples to study and comprehend.
Wouldn't that solve the problems of magic crystals, potion materials, and other resources?
It concerns their own interests.
Bolton constantly reminded himself to be gentle, to speak forcefully, and to persuade with emotion...
However, after Bolton spoke to Baron Borg in a polite manner, he immediately broke down.
"My advisor..."
"Ask my son."
"To be invited by my mentor is an immense honor..."
"Ask my son."
"..."
Is that all the Baron knows? His tone changed slightly later, but he was still asking about my son...
"What the heck... ( っ`-′c)?" Bolton said angrily, repeating the words a pharmacist used to reprimand his disciple.
This is how Bolton was usually scolded by his tutor.
They really are father and son, both so quiet...
That day, Bolton finally couldn't help but curse a couple of times in his heart before going back. It was rare for the usually arrogant Bolton to be so polite and humble, but this was the ending.
On the way back, impulsiveness overwhelmed my reason, and I said some rash things to my mentor.
"For example, not respecting one's supervisor."
The very next day, Master Jon arrived in person.
Unlike Bolton, this time, the entire Baron family came to visit.
When Ron arrived, he was carrying a pharmacology notebook that Yuna said was close to that of a legendary potion master!
It is close, meaning that the source of the book is still at the same level as the master.
A master who is close to a legendary potion master, his theories are indeed very sophisticated. One has to admire that even at the highest level of skill, there is still a common thread.
Ordinary people find these things hard to understand, but Ron knew that this was genetics.
How do magical plants change their traits?
What are the medicinal properties of the same magical plant in different elemental realms?
The journal contained many research topics, but Ron's ultimate interest lay in the so-called elemental realms...
The elemental wonders of the magical world: eye of the storm, lightning domain, and even elemental tides...
This potion master must be a wise man who has traveled far and wide and whose knowledge and actions are in harmony!
Ron was summoned to meet Jon without any explanation.
Jon intended to keep Ron in a separate room for quite some time while he waited.
As luck would have it, Ron crammed on even more potion theory at the last minute!
It has been almost an hour.
Jon arrived late!
Ron, the little genius, has been waiting for so long, yet he remains calm and composed, neither impatient nor playful. He is a promising talent.
Jon's appreciation for talent stirred within him, and the unpleasantness he felt after hearing Bolton's words yesterday dissipated considerably!
Closer still, little Ron was engrossed in the world of the journal. Seeing Ron's earnest little face, Jon felt even more justified in taking him under his wing.
A Closer Look: A Brief Explanation of Anthony's Pharmacology!
Little one, you're reading this book so fast!
"Don't understand, do you? I, Jon, will teach this future disciple a lesson!"
"So the little guy knows that being under my tutelage, Jon's, is no bad thing."
