Son of the Olden Days

"...Be rational." Saul arched her slightly with his shoulders, and it was clear that Cletti was waiting for herself to coax her. But coaxing is impossible, and it is impossible to coax in this life, Thor struggled in his heart.

Kletty turned her head back frosty.

"Most people always want to make the world more rational. People calculate the passage of time, study the alternation of the four seasons and the habits of plants, and observe the weather, but in fact, most of our lives are irrational."

"Just like me now, I'm very angry, very angry, and have no reason at all."

"..." The impression of Kletty has always been like this, changeable and vivid, and sometimes makes Saul a headache. For such a girl, if she only talks about appearance and beauty, it would be an insult to her. The key lies in her intelligence, which is also the part that Sol admires most.

"What is the biggest illusion in life?" Sol asked.

"Innocent, what is the most beautiful music in the world?" Kretie asked back.

"silence."

After Saul finished answering, the two looked up and smiled in a tacit understanding.

"Then I don't know what to do to satisfy Her Majesty? Listen to the humble request." Saul smiled in his heart.

Seeing Saul's soft clothes, Kletty swept his face full of arrogance and changed back to what she was before. She pointed to the bruise on the corner of her eye and leaned closer to Thor to show him.

"I'm like this, don't you feel bad?" Kretie said with a pitiful face.

"Distressed~, who said that I am not distressed? I am not a stone. In fact, my heart is so painful that it splits a few times. It is precisely because I expected that this situation may happen, so I specially prepared some snacks, hoping to be slightly Relieve the wounded soul of the Queen."

While talking, Sol took out a box from his coat, spread it out on the palm of his hand, and opened it. There are some carefully processed small pieces of meat in it, sprinkled with Sol's special seasoning, which exudes a refreshing fragrance in the air. .

"Well, for the sake of your loyalty, this queen will try to help you taste it." Kretie stretched out her slender fingertips gracefully, and slowly twisted a piece from the box and gently put it into her mouth. Inside, chewed a few times.

"Well, it's delicious! What is it?" Kletty's beautiful eyes narrowed, her face looked happy and enjoyable.

Sol silently looked at her, she was always so kind, even in such small details. Sol knows his cooking skills very well, this bit of food can barely be eaten, but that is also when it is just out of the oven.

This way to the new town, thanks to the low temperature and my own preservation, it did not deteriorate, but at this time it was already cold. Once the food loses the right temperature, the taste will be greatly reduced, and it may even be incapable of chewing, but she can be happy with it.

How should I hug her kindness?

"Unexpectedly, as an appraiser, you don't even know what this is." Saul chuckled.

"I can only be regarded as an appraisal apprentice, and this is not the knowledge that an appraiser should master at all, okay?" Kretie gave Thor a white look, trying hard to defend her domain.

"This is cranial rat meat." Sol replied.

Kletty's brow jumped, and soon returned to calm.

"Really, it's the cranial rat I raised. Strictly speaking, this is a kind of rodent. You can treat it as a rat." Sol looked at Kletty and emphasized it again.

A suspicion flashed across her eyes, and she saw through Sol's trick in an instant.

"Even if it's mouse meat, what about it? It's delicious. I really envy you that you can often eat this kind of delicious." Kletty looked indifferent, and twisted a piece of it into her mouth.

Saul chuckled in his heart.

"Yes, this kind of meat is not bad. But I have also suffered bitterness. I may not have told you that during the famine in Grayscreen, I had eaten many strange bugs, some fluffy soft arthropods. Chew repeatedly in your mouth."

Cletti's chewing movements slowed down a bit, but still raised his eyebrows at Sol to beckon him to let him go.

"On another occasion, I went to the beach outside the south gate of Gray Screen Town to see the seascape, and found a chicken floating on the sea. Its feathers were plucked out, and it was bald. I was very happy, but I didn't expect to have another meal. Game, so I want to take that chicken ashore to roast."

"Unexpectedly, it had rotted because it had been soaked in the water for too long. When I reached out, I didn't grasp anything, only the sticky rotting debris in one hand."

The chewing movement in Cletty's mouth stopped, and her expression finally changed.

"On another occasion, I found a cat in the grass. It stared at me in the dark with bright eyes. I was frightened twice and found it could not go away, so I curiously stepped forward and stroked its head. "

"It's a pity that it has actually been dead for a long time, and the inside of its body has been hollowed out by insects. Until I found that the hand feels wrong and lifted its whole body, dense small flies came out of the body and flew out of my face. It was really unfortunate.

Hearing this, Kletty was still on the surface, but her face was already green.

"You better shut up, before I kill you." Kletty shivered, suppressing the rolling nausea, hysterically rushed into Sol's arms and bit her on his shoulder.

Saul knew that at this time, as long as he dared to add another sentence, ‘Don’t vomit in my arms,’ he would definitely be vomited by Cletti. So he can stop, just holding her to prevent her from falling off the tree, with a triumphant expression on his face.

When they robbed Shuggs for meat in the past, they told each other many more anti-human stories, but in the end each time Thor feasted on them. Even the thick-skinned dog like Shuggs will be defeated, not to mention the extremely weak Cleidi.

In the end, the two of them hugged each other, leaning their heads, and wiped out a box of cranial rat meat.

"...I'm sorry, I ate your birthday." Kletty grabbed Thor's water bag and snorted and said something.

"How do you know?" Saul turned his head and looked at her in shock. This box of cranial rat meat was indeed prepared by Saul for himself, because he was thinking that he should be on his way to the new town on his birthday.

It's a pity that the journey was so short and I didn't find any chance to eat or the mood, so I stayed.

"Hey~ it's only the first day of winter, this queen is a wire person." Kletty was proud.

Raising her hand to break Sol's face, Kletty kissed him against his forehead.

"Happy birthday!" Cletti said softly.

"Thank you for paying attention to my dusty life." Sol sighed.

"Then do you also want to know my birthday at this moment? So you can return it to me?" Kletty asked.

"Sorry, I'm not interested."

"why?"

"Life is not easy for the poor! Isn't it good to save a birthday gift? I just happened to be learning to live a life recently!" Sol turned his head to look at the lights of the new town with a vicissitudes of life, as steady as an old dog.

"You... shameless stingy! I don't care. My birthday is in autumn. Anyway, you have heard it. I hope you make a sensible choice between gift and life. By then, if this queen doesn't see Jean The gift that shines in front of people...huh!"

When there was enough trouble, Kretie leaned on Sol and asked:

"What do you need me to do for you?"

"I'm in a strange secret realm..." Sol said as he took out the ring he got from the secret realm from his coat, but Cletty snatched it before he could finish speaking.

He didn't realize how special this ring was, but instinctively thought that it might be a little unusual to appear in that kind of secret. Since Kletty is an appraiser, maybe she knows a little bit.

"Yeah! The whispering garden of the great alchemist Florence." Kletty sighed with bright eyes.

"You... speak human language, oh, I mean say something I can understand."

Sol scratched her head. She should know something when she looked at Kletty, but the string of words that resembled both a name and the name of a building that came out of her mouth made Sol bewildered.

Her slender fingertips carefully stroked each inscription on the inner ring of the ring, Kletty took a deep breath, confirmed her judgment, and then raised her hand to gently pat on Sol's shoulder.

"You have made a fortune, oh no, this can no longer be measured by value. Strictly speaking, even now, this is the top five secret treasure on the mainland."

"Getting rich? Secret treasure? Not that. The gold content of this ring is probably enough to make a pair of earrings, or as your birthday gift? Give it to you in advance?" Sol said suspiciously.

Kletty raised her hand and stroked her forehead with a speechless expression.

"Idiot, Florence is a famous alchemist in the mainland during the ancient kingdom. He once opened the sage's stone and got immortality. Later, after the death of his beloved, he personally made this ring for his beloved wife as a way of expressing his grief. ."

"Oh, alchemy, I know, it's the interaction of some metal and liquid..." Saul recalled uncertainly.

"That's not alchemy! It was just tampering by ignorant people later, who wanted to become the mainstream of this field and have more power in the field. They believe that the world is in matter, and matter reacts to each other, regardless of addition or subtraction. Or fusion, the final total amount is unchanged."

"However, their approach cannot be said to be wrong, because they are self-contained and have a lot of sound and reliable doctrines, but at best they can only be regarded as a new subject, a new field."

"The real alchemy actually existed in the ancient kingdom calendar or even earlier, but it has been passed down to this day and it has been blurred, coupled with the decline of talents and the loss of many formulas, it was taken advantage of by other disciplines."

"The core formula of ancient alchemy is very simple. In fact, the unknown plus the unknown equals the unknown. For example, I know that the blood of a three-tailed bat plus the tail of a lizard is equal to a cheetah transforming scroll. This is the most basic formula in alchemy."

"It's a pity that I have never seen or heard of the three-tailed bat, and I have never had a chance to verify it. The ultimate goal of alchemy is the sage's stone, which is the ultimate ideal of all true alchemists."

These explanations of Kletty aroused Thor's keen interest.

"What is the sage's stone?" Saul asked impatiently.

"In the past history of this continent, three sage stones were opened."

"All that is known is that the great alchemist Florence gained immortality from it. The ancient kingdom hero Warred got a chance to go back in time and rescued his dead love. As for the remaining one, it is secret and has not been spread. "

"In the ancient literature of the Appraiser Guild, there is no specific description of what the sage's stone is and what kind of appearance an item has, but the literature points out that the sage's stone itself represents the unknown, like a magic box."

"Oh, in the words of adventurers, it's like a mysterious treasure box. You don't know whether it is a treasure or something terrible. Everything is born randomly. But it is precisely because of this unknown that changes fate or even changes the world, so much Only alchemists will succeed in succession."

eternal life? Back in time? Saul frowned, lost in thought.
