Chapter 313

Mei Lin picked up a piece of raw material wax block that they had refined before from the experimental table. It had not been processed twice and the shape was distorted.

"If you want to deal with this thing, as you said, let's first try the fire magic that can process it."

Chapter 347 Aunt Meilin

Listening to Merlin's words, Leah followed her out of the laboratory cabin.

Outside the hut is a slightly empty training ground. Meilin said nothing, turned around and looked around, then simply tied the wax block in her hand to the empty clothes drying pole.

"Try it first. If you can change the properties of it that has solidified, you can move on to the next step."

She didn't have a strong "command" tone, it was more like guidance, and she took a step away after speaking.

"Who are you? It was my mother who asked you to come... to monitor me..."

"I'm here to see you."

"Seeing a doctor...heh."

Leah smiled to herself.

Then, he raised his head and looked at the piece of wax.

She raised her staff.

"——Have you heard the encouragement from life?"

She recited the first incantation of Guangguang Xisheng.

In fact, she knows it very well. Even though she was using magic that required mobilizing the most magic circuits in her body, the blood and circuits in her body did not "work hard" because of "needs".

They did not surge with knowledge and interest like because they had to pass an important exam the next day, so they were extra focused the day before and recited more knowledge points.

It's still the same as before, the blood in the body is like a solidified swamp, not a deep and turbulent sea.

"...Bright light and sound."

Although, she is different from the Leah who had to be in her best condition and use all her strength to fully use magic three years ago.

Even if she can't feel the stimulation of the circuit of being a witch, she can still emit the magic she has learned and used countless times as she does now.

But, if it works...

"Sure enough, it didn't succeed smoothly."

As the bright light and white in her field of vision gradually faded away, and when the sound waves that had been taken away by magic returned, and the chirping and flapping of wings in early spring rang in her ears, Leah saw what she expected -

The ice-blue piece of wax in front of me looked more like crystal or ice. Under such high-temperature magic, there was almost no trace of melting.

The rope that tied it and the clothes drying rack had all been burned by such high-temperature magic.

Just like that, it lay on the grass that had been burned to ashes and baked black by the high temperature, and its icy blue stood out even more.

Snap, snap, snap.

There was applause from Mei Lin.

"Why are you applauding? I obviously did a bad job, right?"

"Although you did fail in the secondary processing. But it also proved one thing in reverse..."

Meilin came over, lowered her head, and picked up the piece of wax.

"You did create the wax block as the Candle of Creation. According to page 322 of the original Candle of Creation..."

"It ignites the icy blue color that contains the most energy, like a tear from the gods."

Leah looked at the ice-blue wax block in Merlin's hand and read out the original line that she had been pursuing for many years.

"As expected of Liz's daughter. In some aspects, she is as good as her mother."

"...Thank you so much for the compliment?"

Leah felt a little uncomfortable.

Although she now realizes that Mei Lin's identity is unusual, it is still indescribably weird to be praised like an elder by someone who was a "student" the day before.

"Of course, as far as Canguang Xisheng is concerned, if you want to achieve secondary processing, you need a very high output - the total amount of magic required is very high. Judging from your current situation, it is probably impossible to do it."

Meilin clicked a little in the air, and a book of ancient magic fell out from her storage ring.

It doesn't even look like a copy. The yellowed pages, the tattered cover, and the cover with illegible words all indicate that this is a genuine original.

"There is... fire magic specially designed for the secondary processing of the original candle wax block. However, you probably won't be able to learn it until your blood and circuits are normal."

She lowered her head, and Leah discovered that when she just walked out, she seemed to have unknowingly lifted out the box containing blood-colored peppermint essential oil that Leah had placed in the room.

"Your illness is caused by a depressed magic circuit. The first way to cure it is to use bloody peppermint essential oil."

She opened it.

The scent of blood-colored peppermint essential oil filled the air quietly the moment it was opened, and drifted seductively past the tip of Leah's nose, seductively.

"Since Ya'er's time, it has been common for witches to use this kind of thing. Give yourself a shot and try again?"

Meilin also seemed to react slightly to the smell of bloody peppermint essential oil, and her face began to turn a little red.

She raised her head and seemed to consider herself a doctor who "sees and treats patients."

However, Leah didn't even have any intention of trying, she just shook her head.

"...No need."

"Huh? Why..."

Leah sighed, squatted down, and picked up the lid of the box.

She smiled self-deprecatingly, and as if "accidentally" exposed her arm. The needle holes on her arm had faded a lot, but were still densely packed.

Only then did Mei Lin notice that in the environment with such a high concentration of blood-colored peppermint essential oil, Leah's face did not turn red and her heart did not beat. She seemed to be fine at all.

"Because I've tried... and can't light it."

"I see..." She chuckled, "Oh. Liz, I'm so sorry. Now it seems that your daughter's illness may not be as simple as we thought."

"Mother……?"

In fact, Leah doesn't say this "title" very often anymore.

For the witch, her mother when she was a child was very much like a "mother" who could help her grow up. But when the age difference between the two was just a fraction of their combined age, this woman with a hint of child dependence The title came out slowly.

Leah followed Merlin's eyes and turned back, only to realize that Liz was standing by the tree behind the two of them, holding her hands and watching everything as if she was waiting for something.

"Thank you, Aunt Merlin."

"Mei, Aunt Meilin...?!"

Leia turned her head in shock and watched as the red-haired Merlin took out an older and tattered hat from her ring, but represented a higher level of witch, and put it on.

"Technically speaking, you should call me aunt...but it's too ugly. Calling me aunt is fine."

"I'm calling you aunt because I'm grateful to you. I usually call you aunt since I'm your aunt, right?"

"Smelly girl."

Leah, who was standing aside, looked at the two people who started joking in front of her with some surprise.

"So, could it be that Mei Lin is not only here to play me... but her age is also very special... Could it be that she is the Mei Lin?!"

"That's right. Let me reintroduce you. Merlin Waterwom Elemont is one of my mother's aunts, and she was also one of the biggest contributors to your radiant Xisheng ancient magic."

The more Liz spoke, the more Leah felt a sense of shame that she thought she would no longer feel.

Wait, wait, etc., that is to say, in the past few days, she asked the famous witch in history to... call her teacher for almost a whole week? !

Although the magic circuit in her body did not return, Leah felt herself blushing again.

"Hello, Leah. Don't take it to heart. It's your mother who is curious about why your magic circuit is abnormal... However, you are not someone who can communicate easily, so I volunteered to act as a student to investigate."

After Meilin finished speaking, she took out her big staff from the ring - it was obviously a better-made equipment, but it also looked more ancient.

"Frankly speaking, it makes me look younger for a long time, which is pretty good."

"Then what happens next..."

She rose into the air, held on to her hat, and looked at the two people looking at each other on the grass.

"It's your mother and daughter's time."

Chapter 348 "It turns out that I can't live without him"

Mei Lin probably expected that her mother would have to enlighten her on some things. She also expected that if she didn't leave, these two "awkward" mother and daughter would probably not be able to talk to anyone.

Exactly so.

Liz folded her hands and occasionally scratched her head, seeming to be thinking about how to start.

In comparison, Leah's side was more "calm". She just looked down at the green grass under her feet, being blown and swayed by the wind.

"Leah..."

"Actually...Actually, mother, you should have asked me directly."

What Liz didn't expect was that after entering the rebellious stage, her daughter, who had closed herself off and was unwilling to say anything, would be the first to break the silence.

Leah spoke very seriously.

"I...I won't say nothing, although it will make you worry. Well...because I discovered that when communicating with others, as expected...you should say everything you want to say. The best way…”

She raised her head, gripping the staff tighter.

"You have indeed changed. It seems that letting you go for a few years is not a bad thing."

Liz spoke happily.

Before Leah went to the human world to find her alone, she was particularly "avoidant" and would subconsciously avoid even her mother's care.

But now Leah has become the one who speaks first when neither of them can speak.

"No...I could have become a lot less, if...if I hadn't met him."

"So, what have you experienced outside? That student of yours... Oh no, maybe I should say your sweetheart here. I remember his name is Will, he..."

"He's dead."

When Leah said this, the two fell into silence, and the cold wind blew between them.

Leah didn't even say the most hurtful words to herself several times in her heart. She would not even use such harsh words to hurt herself.

However, it was surprising that when she needed to tell Liz this, she said it so quickly.

She...she didn't even feel the "heartache" she imagined.

She put her hand to her heart.

Although, there is still a little bit, just a little bit?

"Yeah. This... I can see it."

Liz reached out and took off Leah's big hat. Only then did she see Leah's red eyes.

But she didn't cry, she just quietly showed a trace of "sadness" that shouldn't appear on a "child" like this.

"After returning here, you have been distracting yourself by completing experiments and not thinking about this, right?"

Liya heard that Liz's tone was more like returning to the past than the recent "few years", which was often a little old-fashioned but liked to joke.

Back to the tone of being with her by the fireplace, lighting the fire, and telling her stories.

How many years ago was that?

But in any case, for the witch with a long life, the mother can be a mother for a long time, and the child can be a child for a long time.

"But, Leah. Since you have learned how to express your love frankly, you should also learn to express your sadness frankly."

Her hand touched Leah's head and touched it slowly.

"Well... Mother, you are right..."

Liya sobbed a little when she heard this.

She experienced the "cold" pain from the depths of her blood, piercing her heart, her cerebral cortex, and every part of her blood vessels.

She had heard that sometimes, when you lose someone, you may not feel sad at the first time.
