Chapter 86: Rarely Confused
"Until three months ago, the Master Mage was in poor health and studying potions all day long. He fell ill in bed and was difficult to cure with medicine and stone. In the end," Gothe showed a sad expression when he said this.
After listening to Gothe's story, Mrs. Misu was silent for a while, and finally said quietly: "Our farewell thirteen years ago was actually the last time we met in this life."
Goode was a little surprised in his heart.
Mrs. Misou's mood was a little sad, but it was far less emotional than he thought.
How would a normal person be so calm when they first hear the news of their husband's death?
Is there another hidden secret? Or has Mrs. Misou's feelings for Master Seda already faded after being apart for so long?
"Before he left, the mage told me that I would personally deliver this news to you, Mrs. Misu, and also asked me to deliver this prescription to you personally."
He took out another piece of ancient parchment from his arms and handed it to Mrs. Misou.
"Huh?"
Mrs. Misu exhaled softly after taking the ancient parchment.
"Main ingredients: 1/2 Gusi psychic bone powder (approximately equal to 14g), 1 pair of phantom butterfly wings"
"Supplementary materials: 1 part silver thread grass, mandrake bark, dried nettles, sage?"
It is the incomplete prescription for the psychic potion among Master Seda's relics.
"This is this?" Mrs. Misu hesitated.
"The mage has devoted a lot of time and energy to this prescription. Before he fell ill, there was only one final step to verify the auxiliary materials before he fell ill." Gothe said.
"Success is close at hand, but it's a pity."
"Mrs. Misu, although the prescription has not been completely completed, it is almost the same."
"So I think you should also understand the preciousness of this prescription. This is why the mage specifically told me to give it to you personally."
"However, he also specifically reminded me that there may be people secretly spying on you in Bremen City, so I should be careful."
"The Master Mage said that he was forced by these people in the first place, and he left Hogan City as a last resort."
"So, Madam ," Gothe apologized: "I used a false identity to deceive you at the beginning, because I needed time to confirm whether anyone was spying secretly. I'm sorry."
"Before he left, I had thought that such a day might come." She sighed, and a layer of mist finally appeared in her eyes.
"Besides this prescription, there should be one more thing. He wants you to hand it over to me personally, right?" Gaode's heart skipped a beat, and he knew that the key point was coming.
"There's no need to give that thing to me, you can keep it for yourself." But before he could say anything, Mrs. Misu spoke first, leaving Gothe stunned on the spot.
"Madam, this is..."
"That thing should be a scroll."
Gothe hesitated for a moment, but nodded.
Having said this, even if it was just to see what kind of medicine Mrs. Misu was selling in her gourd, there was no need for him to pretend to be confused anymore.
"That is actually a letter of recommendation from Siris Magic Academy." Mrs. Misu said directly.
"With this scroll, you can unconditionally enter Siris Magic Academy to learn spells."
Gothe showed a surprised expression at the right time.
"It was also the source of driving away my husband." Mrs. Misou continued.
"The so-called people behind the scenes, in fact, he knows very well, they are people from the Harel family who have been friends with his family for generations."
"Back then, my husband's family, the ancestors of the Norman family and the ancestors of the Harel family, They are friends who have experienced life and death together. During an adventure in the ruins, they made great contributions to the Principality of Xien. "
"When they were rewarded, they jointly chose a letter of recommendation from Siris Magic Academy as a guarantee for the continuation of the family inheritance."
“It was only later that my husband’s family gradually declined, but the Harrell family developed better and better, and even left the city of Bremen and established a foothold in the city of Saint-Sien.”
"Until my husband's generation, only his lineage remained. The prosperous family at that time can be said to have disappeared in name only. Except for himself, few people still remember the name of the Norman family."
"It was nothing at first, we lived on our own. His life was pretty good. "
"But just thirteen years ago, someone from the Harel family came to him and wanted to buy the letter of recommendation in his hand."
"Indeed, apart from him, only the people from the Harel family would know that he had this thing in his hand."
"But my husband refused to let go at that time. He bit the letter and sold it long ago."
"I have always advised him that it is not necessary. It is more important for the family to be together than anything else. Why bother with a foreign object"
"But he just didn't listen."
"The result was that he was forced to leave Hogan City. The good family was separated like this and could not see each other again." The mist in Mrs. Misu's eyes finally turned into tears at this moment.
"Madam, my condolences." Gothe also sighed in his heart.
Mrs. Misu cried silently for a long time before wiping away her tears with a handkerchief, "Sorry, I lost my temper."
Gaode shook his head, indicating that it was okay.
“What my husband means is that he wants to use this letter of recommendation to send Serge to study at Seris Magic Academy.” Mrs. Misu, who had recovered, explained.
"Although this letter allows Serge to enter Siris Magic Academy unconditionally, how can it really be that easy to enter Siris Magic Academy?"
"The Harel family is now in Saint-Sean City, and is extremely powerful. Perhaps the people who forced my husband to hand over the scroll now believe that Seda will not come back, so they gave up monitoring our home."
"However, as soon as I set foot on the streets of Saint-Sean City with this letter, even before I arrived at Saint-Sean City, and on the way, the people behind the scenes should have received the news." Mrs. Misou was terrifyingly calm.
"In the city of Bremen, my husband was forced into such a situation. How can Serre and I, who are orphans and widowed, fight against the local snakes of the Harel family in the city of Saint-Sion?" It means you can do whatever you want. After all, it’s up to people to succeed, and the external environment is just an aid. "
"An ordinary person has no sins, but because he carries a precious jade in his arms, he will incur guilt or disaster."
"Sel and I are living a good life now, and I don’t want this unused letter of recommendation to disturb my life anymore."
"So, since you are my husband's apprentice, I will give you this letter of recommendation."
"You are not like me. The Harel family doesn't know you. You can directly enter the Sires Magic Academy with this letter of recommendation."
The development of the matter was far beyond Gothe's expectation.
But it seems to be reasonable.
"The Norman family is so weak, why do you still keep this letter and not use it earlier?" This has always been what Gothe cannot understand the most.
Mrs. Misu sighed after hearing this, and explained: "This letter of recommendation was kept by the ancestors of my husband's family to rely on it to rise again when it becomes weak in the future."
"It's just that when the family really went into decline, new problems arose."
"Once the family weakens, the number of people will become increasingly scarce, and it is not always possible to find talents who can use this letter of recommendation."
"For example, my husband is not talented as a mage. Even if he uses this letter of recommendation to join the Seris Magic Academy, he can barely become a level 1 mage at most."
"To be honest, This is too wasteful, after all, there is only one letter of recommendation, and a mere level 1 mage can indeed no longer help the family rise. "
"For this reason, this letter of recommendation has been kept until now."
Gothe nodded slightly. Although he did not necessarily agree with this approach, he did understand it.
This is like playing cards. The cards in your hand are so poor that you only have one bomb. You must be trying to get more points with this bomb.
If you operate it well, you may be able to get big points back, but if you operate it poorly and everyone else's cards are gone, your deck will be ruined.
"There is even a new problem that is difficult to solve." Mrs. Misu sighed again.
"As the family weakens, even how to get to Siris Magic Academy has become a problem for them." She said helplessly.
"From Bremen to Saint-Sien, it has to span thousands of kilometers. The journey is difficult and bumpy. You should understand it if you think about it."
Well, this is the same problem I am facing now.
"It's a pity that he refused to listen to me."
After Gothe had left for a long time, a faint sigh from Mrs. Misou sounded in the silent house.
Gaude said he was his husband's apprentice, so where did his skills as a repair craftsman come from?
It can't be that it was taught to him by his husband.
Seda is obviously only good at mixing potions and knows nothing about repairing alchemical items.
The craftsmanship of restoration craftsmen requires both the inheritance of knowledge and time to refine.
It conflicts with what Gao De said.
But Gaude was clearly able to provide his husband's family letters and potion prescriptions, and was able to provide detailed information about Master Seda, including his property and situation in Hogan City.
She didn't know the truth and details, but she didn't have the intention to study it in detail.
She only knew that her husband was definitely no longer alive.
She only understood that what the other party was hiding was what the target was.
Gaode gave a letter from home and a prescription, but did not give the letter of recommendation that should be valued most by her husband.
The reason why she "voluntarily" gave the letter of recommendation to Gothe was, in addition to the reasons stated by Gothe, also because she understood that whether she gave it to him or not, this letter of recommendation would never fall into her hands.
In this case, why not be so stupid as to believe in the moral rhetoric, why not give it "voluntarily"?
At least it can be a favor.
Mrs. Misu stood up leisurely and walked into the kitchen.
Sel will be back soon, and it’s time for her to prepare dinner.
Very shrewd.
It is rare to be confused.
