Chapter 422: Chapter 110 – I’m done, can’t get rid of it! _1
“Alright.”
Christina agreed immediately.
The medicine Link referred to was a potion named “Reversal”, which he had not been able to fully develop.
The intended effect was to reverse the physical deformities resulting from biochemical modifications.
The research approach was flawless; it was merely that many destructive tests and stimulating experiments could not be completed due to Christina’s pregnancy, resulting in a lack of supporting data.
Therefore, the “Reversal” potion was only a semi-finished product.
Six months had already passed, Christina didn’t have more vacation time and had to hurry back to Shadow City.
There was no time for Link to continue developing the “Reversal” potion.
However, even though it was semi-finished, Christina was quite satisfied.
The visit to seek help from Link was worthwhile.
Apart from the costs for food, clothing, housing, and investing in vitality in Ravensmouth City, she had spent many magic stones.
In the matter of preserving her pregnancy and raising her daughter, she did not lose anything but achieved her goal.
Well…
Regarding the matter of being an experimental subject, Christina didn’t think much of it.
She had gotten used to it.
After expressing sincere gratitude to Link and Serene Wizard once again, Christina returned to her rented place with her daughter in swaddles, started packing and prepared to leave.
What she needed to pack was not much, mainly the semi-finished “Reversal” potion, and some regular potions for her daughter, like the Glasswort Series.
These kinds of potions that assist in the meditation can somewhat consolidate a baby’s spirit and consciousness.
After Christina left, Serene Wizard took out a box from her pocket, not from a spatial storage magic tool, handed it to Link and said, “I just got it yesterday.”
Link accepted the box, opened it, and saw a necklace inside.
What was peculiar was that the pendant was actually a ladies’ ring, and it was in the style of a wedding ring.
“This…”
Link closed the lid, holding the box not knowing what to say.
He got the spatial storage magic tool from Christina which was a pocket watch. He didn’t need it and was sure to gift it to someone.
The first choice was Jasmine.
However, giving someone a used item, especially something a man has intimately used, no matter its value, it’s challenging to offer it.
The pocket watch had to be swapped for a spatial storage magic tool of similar value, or just be reforged into a new one.
In the field of alchemists, Link had no connections and could only seek help from Serene Wizard.
Who would have thought, Serene Wizard did help, the alchemist she had asked was so busy but managed to transform the pocket watch into a necklace.
“So, you don’t like it?”
Serene Wizard had a smile at the corner of her mouth, her tone carried a teasing flavor.
“It’s not that, it’s just…”
“It’s just what? Too bashful to give it away?”
“How can it be? I just find it not that good.”
“How can it be not good? I guarantee you give it in the morning, and she will crawl into your bed at night.”
“Stop teasing me, Serene Wizard, we’re still young.”
“Really? Young, where?”
Serene Wizard giggled. She looked Link up and down, then she took another glance at Jasmine who had just entered, and teased, “From what I see, you guys are not young at all. You’re quite grown up.”
Link retreated silently.
When Old Silky Princess started talking, the wheels kept rolling over your face.
Grown up?
Which part are you referring to that’s grown up?
Where?
“What are you guys talking about? What’s this big and small stuff?”
Jasmine asked with confusion.
“Nothing.”
Link quietly slipped the box he was clutching in his palm into the pocket of his jacket.
“You can ask Link yourself.”
Serene Wizard swayed her wriggling hips and started walking out, preparing to leave.
With Sage Palo’s army becoming increasingly active at the front lines of the battlefield, the logistical pressure was becoming heavier and heavier.
Not only did she have to manage industries to earn magic stones, but she also had to sell the spoils of war brought back to the homeland at a high price. Serene Wizard was getting busier and busier.
Of the three people who initially worked in the shop, Sharia, Ayla, and Tina, only Tina remained in the shop, becoming an official pharmacist.
Sharia and Ayla had each moved to new units suitable for them.
Ayla was handling interpersonal relationships, stabilizing old members and digging up new ones.
Sharia was managing the industry and selling the spoils of war.
Aside from these three people, Serene Wizard hardly had any capable subordinates that she could use freely.
In the end, Sage Palo’s army had been established for too short a time, and the front lines required too many talents.
All the direct line members raised over the years were pulled to the front lines of the battlefield, there was none to spare.
The couple of years just before his promotion to sage were spent neglecting the supervision and guidance of the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association”, thus causing a rapid decline in performance, producing only three talented individuals: Sharia, Ayla, and Tina.
Link saw this and kept it in mind as a reminder.
“Has Christina left?”
Jasmine stared towards the leaving Serene Wizard and then made an inquiry.
“She has.”
Link nodded.
“So what’s your plan next? Will you seriously run the shop?”
There was confusion in Jasmine’s eyes and brow.
Her internship had ended, and advanced studies were about to enter the second phase. After another fall term, she would graduate.
The Brotherhood Group and the Social Phobia Group are about to enter the first phase of advanced study.
All the members of Link’s lineage were ready to make their debut.
Jasmine didn’t believe that Link had no other ideas and would stay in the homeland to run a pharmacy shop in peace.
Link didn’t hide it from Jasmine, and solemnly stated, “It’s not a matter of what I plan to do, it’s a matter of what needs to be done.”
Everything was left unsaid but understood.
Jasmine held her mouth shut, pointed upwards with her finger, her eyes full of confusion and worry.
