When Yoner, who was contacted, arrived at the workshop, Lee Han was still grimacing and staring at his flask.
“Not yet.”
“Lee Han. Let’s have lunch.”
“no. Impurities still remain.”
“It’s okay to leave that much, so just give it to me.”
“It has to boil enough to be completed, not just finished.”
“The person who made me work is okay, what…!”
Yoner was startled, but Lee Han did not back down and stared at the flask.

Not knowing what to do, Yoner decided to sit next to him and watch what Lee Han was doing.
Lee Han concentrated on a stubborn look by shaking the flask, turning it around, and exposing it to a slight fire.
Seeing that, Yoner remembered that his older sister Joanen had evaluated Lee Han’s work the other day.
He shuddered at how neatly he did it, and was excited that he was several times better than his previous assistants.
Alchemists these days are so impatient and impatient, Joanen said, that even the same extraction often yields disappointing results.
If the fire is too strong, the undissolved sediment will make the liquid turbid, and if the fire is too weak, the properties will change along the way.
Upon recalling that, Yoner eased his mind a bit and repented of his own attitude toward Lee Han…
…I didn’t lose, I just got up and forcibly pulled Lee Han out.
Yoner had no intention of playing around with the beat of crazy perfectionists like his sister and Lee Han.
“Work a little. Eat and do it.”
“no! Yone! only once! Just one more time…!”
“This is the Makein family workshop. It’s not the Wodanaj family workshop.”
Yoner took out the workshop key from the side of the oven, put it in his pocket, and pushed Lee Han’s back.

“By the way, Wodanaj-sama. I have a question for you.”

Not only Joanen, but also the alchemists who were working in other places in the workshop had a lot of questions about Lee Han.
Seeing his subordinates asking questions on their own, Joanen smiled satisfied inside.
She didn’t know how to work because she wasn’t a subordinate.
“ah. I have a question too.”
“Ask anything.”
“I am preparing the raw materials needed for Dobrook’s Emerald Potion, but I got stuck in the process of melting Mukryongeun into a solution. Probably because the impurities did not disappear completely…”
“ah. It could be enough. Emerald Dream PotionHe’s quite a tough guy. The color of the solution is muddy even though it has dissolved silver, isn’t it? There is a limit to the magic power of a wizard, so you need to change the flame. There is jadeite in the workshop, and try to change the nature of fire by spraying it.”
“thank you. oh But it’s not clay, it’s silver.”
At Lee Han’s words, the alchemist panicked.
“Yes? Then it melted well?”
“There were a few grains left…”
“That is fine.”
“no. If there is a problem with the potion after compromise, it is difficult to fix it.”
“……”
“……”
The workshop alchemists stared at Joanen.
Although he didn’t put it into words, it was a subtle rebuke, saying, ‘Isn’t Makein-sama ruining a young wizard now?’
Of course, Joanen was not shaken by those eyes.
If he was a person who would be shaken by those eyes, he would not have been able to run such a workshop with madness and tenacity in the first place.
‘I definitely taught him not to be too obsessed with perfection and to do it in moderation, but that’s because Wodanaj’s personality is too perfectionistic.’
Joanen opened his mouth, thinking he would have grabbed his neck if he had heard it.
“But I wonder what the professors are on the street…”
“Oh yeah. Mr. Mackin. May I ask about the magic you used to make the test solution earlier? It was similar to the solution rotation magic, but it was a different type of magic.”
“The magic I used earlier is not a solution rotation magic, but a magic that reverses up and down…”
Joanen, who was explaining, came to his senses and realized that the topic had come a long way.
Before returning, Lee Han grabbed another alchemist and asked a question.
“But… gulp. This is it.”
“No, how are you eating all the food while saying that? Yes. What are you curious about?”
After Lee Han asked three more questions, all the dishes on the table were emptied and lunch time was over.
The alchemists got up and stretched out.
“The time is already like this…”
“Don’t go for a walk today, let’s start right away.”
“Let’s go. Mr. Mackin. I have to finish work that I didn’t finish in the morning.”
Joanen followed her with a slightly prickly expression on her face.
* * * *
When things got delayed, Joanen put aside the questions and concentrated on his work as usual.
Yoner was terrified at the sight of Joanen, who insists on returning to work like a madman.
It was the same in Einrogard, but Yonaire’s friend is someone who can live without the law.
Yoner flinched, fearing that his friend would grab him right away and call out a water ball.
However, as if familiar with Lee Han, he immediately resolved all the complaints without any complaints.
“thank you for your effort.”
“thank you.”
“Oh yeah. Now I have to slowly prepare to go back to school, is there any potion you want to learn?”
The recipe for the potion was not easily available.
Of course, the recipes for basic and easy potions, which were widespread throughout the Empire, could be obtained from any bookstore in the city.
Basic potions and recipes such as ＜Less Health Recovery Potion>.
But now, like ＜Dobrook’s Emerald Dream Potion>, the alchemist’s individual effort and research for a potion recipe could not be obtained without the alchemist’s permission, even if he paid gold coins.
In the case of alchemists’ guilds and workshops, it was even more thorough.
The recipe for this potion was considered a secret more important than life, so if you accidentally touched or copied it, an assassin came to you.
As such, it was obviously a good thing that Joanen taught Lee Han how to make various potions at the Maikin family’s workshop.
It didn’t feel like a favor, but…Joanen suggested that I tell you about a potion that I need as a student returning to Einrogarde in the second semester.
There will be a lot of things going on when you enter school, so it will be quite helpful if you know in advance a useful potion.
Ian asked carefully.
“Are you okay?”
The gift was so large that he was rather cautious.
‘I don’t think it’s because you don’t want to pay for the recipe instead.’
“I am Yonere’s friend, and I can give him a present like this. And she’s got a lot of work done by her.”
Joanen’s words were sincere.
Compared to other assistants, Lee Han deserved such a gift.
“Yone. Which potion do you think would be good?”
“Wow, well… Joanen-nim is strict about this for me as well.”

No matter how much he loved his younger brother, he did not reveal all the secrets of the workshop.
A ball is a ball, a buying company.
“You don’t need an invisibility potion. There are even artifacts in magic.”
“How about a potion of accelerated thought?”
“It’s not bad either. I’ll write it down at once. Potions that can prevent tracking or confuse wouldn’t be bad either.”
“I don’t think the magic enhancement potion is bad either.”
“Should I write a potion for the smoke screen to throw at the chasing people?”
“…Lee Han. Aren’t we only talking about potions for a limited situation from a while ago?”
“is it?”
Ian was puzzled.
It looks like a potion that can be used in general…
“Can’t my sister recommend it?”
“Are you going to leave it to me?”
Joa Nen smiled at her absurdly, but immersed herself in her anguish as if she didn’t like her brother’s folly.
“Water of magical power…”
“it’s okay.”
“it’s okay.”
“…that, yes. If not, I think this would be better.”
Joanen took a quill and began to write down the ingredients list and recipe with a single stroke.
In an instant, neat handwriting filled the white paper.
“ruler. receive.”
“What kind of potion is this?”
“You will find out if you make it yourself. It should not be difficult as it is a potion that uses relatively easy-to-find ingredients.”
“thank you. Maikin.”
Lee Han took the paper and fell in thought.
‘what? It looks like a reinforcement series… It’s not a magic enhancement…’
“By the way, can you tell me about the rumors that the professors fought on the street? It’s done, so take it slow…”
“ah. Were you curious about that?”
I thought Joanen was about to ask something, but this was it.
Lee Han prepared to tell the story of crazy professors.
“Makin! I think you should come right now!! Pot #7 is completely boiling and overflowing!! If you keep going like this, you will end up throwing away all the ingredients!”
“…I’ll see you all next time. go!”
Joanen greeted him quickly and followed the alchemist to the inside of the workshop.
For some reason, Lee Han felt that his back was full of anger.
“Are you mad?”
“yes. But you don’t have to worry about it. It’s all self-sufficient.”

“Uhh…”

Nelia let out a painful moan that seemed to have been pulled up from the depths of her body.
She asked, as if worried about Guy Nando.
“it’s okay? Why?”
“Why did you get 1st place… I’m sorry. I couldn’t hear it because I was thinking about something else. what?”
However, Guy Nando had already turned around, glaring at her friend with contempt.
‘You tricked me to look good!’
“Is everyone studying?”
Lee Han, who returned from work at Puyo’s Magic Wand Workshop, went to the spacious drawing room.I was puzzled to see my friends rolling around.
Guy Nando picked up his textbook and covered the magazine.
“yes.”
“Why do you turn to page 1 every time?”
“……”
“Yeah… eat some snacks. But why is Nelia like that?”
“It’s hard to get 1st place. huh. There’s something like that.”
Gainando took a bite of the cream puff and grumbled.
“ah. Did the story in the mansion progress?”
Lee Han said as if he knew.

Nellia’s comments at the time were so good that she didn’t end up in 1st place, but it was no wonder that it actually progressed.
“I thought so…”
“I think so, but what do you think it is?”
“What’s up?”
Yoner, who came in late, tilted his head and asked.
“Are you really going to try her answer that Neila gave you?”
“ah. it? yes. I thought I’d give it a try.”
“Hey…”
“Isn’t that great?”
“Great.”
Lee Han, Yonaire, and Ratford looked at Nelia with respectful eyes.
Of course, she was so nervous that she couldn’t even sleep.
“What if I fail? What do you do!”
“The Makein family has a lot of money, doesn’t it matter…?”
“right. It doesn’t matter how much failure. it’s okay.”
“If Yoner gets in trouble!”
“Don’t be in trouble. If it fails, it is the fault of the people who chose it.”
Ihan nodded his head as if he was right at Yoner’s words.
“If we succeed, shouldn’t the Makein family give us something as a token of our gratitude?”
“I know. Let me tell you one more time.”
“…Stop before I shoot them both.”

Nellia hadn’t even started yet, but her stomach tingled at the sight of her friends assuming her success.
Of course, she wasn’t rude enough that the May Keen family told Nelia to take responsibility and proceed.
She took Nelia’s opinion to the end, and the executives of the Maykin family did it themselves.
She didn’t really need to be burdened, but unfortunately the anxiety didn’t go away.
‘If I fail, because of my opinion… If I fail, because of my opinion…’
When Nilia was so anxious, Lee Han asked Yoner.
“If it was the Makein family, they would have done it well… right?”
“yes. oh Professor Einrogard has also been talking about inviting them in.”
“Five. Nelia. did you hear Professor Einrogard…”
“uh? So, can I not take a class in the second semester?”
“It could be.”
Hearing Gainando and Yoner’s conversation, Lee Han paused.
‘for a moment. Even if I prepare now, work will probably start during the semester, can I go on my own? Does the Skeleton Principal give you permission?’
