Chapter 239: Making Magic Potion (Part 3)



Shaking her head without thinking too much, Livia looked at Killian who was still a little nervous and said, "You go and rest. I need a quiet environment to make the potion."

"By the way, after we get to Nurti, we'll try to collect the Bailisha fruit and crab spider venom. If we can't collect the materials, it's ok to find out where they are. I'll go there then."

Livia was still very confident in his current strength. Although he was no match for some powerful people and monsters, ordinary robbers and crab spiders probably could not threaten him.

Killian was stunned for a moment and then quickly agreed.

"By the way, would you like to have dinner with us later?"

"Can."

Livia thought for a while and said that according to the memory instilled in him, it would not take a long time to prepare the three kinds of preparations, but that was when he had the wine as the raw materials, and he still had to brew the wine first.

Although it is fruit wine, it will take at least one or two days for it to ferment to a usable level. In this case, there is no need for him to watch it all the time. He can always go out for a meal.

Killian didn't say anything after hearing this, just nodded and left the room.

Creak~Click~The door was closed. After Livia sensed that he had walked away, she moved her eyes to the package at her feet.

Phew~ He opened all the packages and first took out the glassware used for mixing and refining.

Put the candlesticks on the table on both sides, place glass bottles and other utensils on the table, then turn around and take out the small wooden barrels and other wine-making equipment.

Grind the zinnia petals and verbena into powder according to memory, and then put them in small boxes and glass bottles.

Bang!

The light knock on the door interrupted Livia's movements, huh?

He glanced out the window and pulled open the dark blue curtains that were originally covering the window. He could see that the sky outside the window had become completely dark.

It’s evening already, time flies by so fast.

Livia put down the mortar and the half-ground verbena in her hands and stretched.

"Hold on."

Livia estimated in her mind that it took more than half an hour just to grind out ten portions of the material. After all, in order to grind it into a material that can be used without destroying its medicinal properties, it must be a granular powder, and the force cannot be too much or too little.

Although Livia had the memory instilled by the system, this was actually his first time grinding, so he was naturally cautious and did not dare to speed up.

After tidying up the things on the table, Livia turned and walked to the door, glanced at the few small wine barrels that were fermenting next to her, then retracted her gaze and opened the door.

"Sir Livia, Lord Killian asked me to inform you that it is time for dinner."

Standing at the door was the guard who had asked him to help find his "childhood sweetheart". He had a hopeful look on his face, as if he wanted to ask something.

Livia sighed in his heart. He naturally knew what the other party wanted to ask, but he was a little hesitant. The "childhood sweetheart" maid had already made it clear that she didn't know him and didn't want to meet him as a "stranger".

Seeing the look on his face, Edgar's hope dimmed, "Sir Livia, didn't you find my childhood sweetheart?"

Livia hesitated whether to nod or shake his head, he was really a little conflicted.

Finally he nodded. Brewing wine and grinding herbs took up a lot of his energy, and he was too lazy to make up a story.

"I saw her, indeed at Natalia's residence, but she told me that she didn't know you, and...

I don’t want to see you.”

Having said this, Livia said nothing more, closed the door, and walked across the hall he had seen when he came and went. He had made it very clear that he really didn't want to see a person who was obviously older than himself showing a sad look in front of him.

Livia had no idea what happened afterwards, nor did she see him coming into the hall. She only heard the next day that the guard named Edgar had entered the inner city through connections, ran to Natalia's mansion and tried to "attack" a maid, but was caught by the mansion's guards and sent to Songkani's prison.

In the end, Killian and Allison paid to redeem him, but the guard named Edgar took out half of his savings to return to Killian, then resigned and returned to his hometown, a village near Songkani.

Of course, this is a story for later.

Livia walked all the way into the hall and found that there were only a few people sitting around a dining table in the middle.

Seeing him walk into the hall, Killian, who was at the head of the group, stood up and walked towards him.

"Lord Livia, um, how is it going?"

Killian asked in a somewhat cryptic tone.

Livia smiled and replied.

"It mainly requires a few special fruit wines as intermediates, which need to ferment for a day or two before use, but I think it should be no problem."

After hearing this, Killian smiled happily and pointed excitedly towards the dining table filled with various dishes.

“Come, Lord Livia, come and eat.”

Livia looked at the people sitting at the table. Except for the expressionless Allison, the others were all unfamiliar faces.

I think it should be the same as Killian said before. All the guards who survived the monster attack have resigned and disbanded. These should be newly recruited people.

He sat down next to Killian with a calm expression and looked at the table.

Roast duck leg, cheese, bacon, bread rolls, sausages...

Most of them were common foods, except for roast duck legs, which he had seen for the first time.

The appearance of the cheese was much worse than what I had eaten at Natalia's that morning, but it made sense. How could the chef of a tavern and garrison that hosted caravans be compared with the chef of a noble mansion?

Killian smiled and moved a plate with roasted duck legs in front of him. Livia looked at the plate with two duck legs in front of him and the plates in front of others with only one duck leg.

He accepted it with peace of mind.

Under the somewhat complicated looks of the other new caravan members, he quickly finished the few plates in front of him and then stood up.

"You can come to me if you have anything to do. There is nothing that cannot be disturbed from now on."

He stood there and said something to Killian before going back to his room.

But judging from Killian's look, he wouldn't come to find him, and might even stop others from coming to disturb him.

Livia smiled helplessly and walked towards the room.

Several pairs of eyes followed his departing figure until he disappeared through the door of the hall and entered the corridor.

After Livia walked into the corridor, she clearly felt that the atmosphere in the hall outside was becoming lively.

Huh~ He sighed helplessly. He couldn't understand why the atmosphere suddenly became so awkward and stiff. He obviously didn't do anything. Could it be that Killian or Allison said something to them?

Livia wondered, walking towards the room. He planned to grind all the remaining herbs tonight.
