Chapter 113: Chapter 106: Precision Processings
Translator: 549690339 |
Jimmy returned to the trade caravan’s headquarters.
Not long after finishing their drinks and snacks.
The three were not familiar with each other, even though they had spent five days together on the White Sail, what kind of friendship could they possibly form?
There were not many topics to talk about, Jimmy clearly didn’t want to talk about his current situation, let alone Link and Jasmine’s.
So, after a moment of silence, Jimmy took the initiative to say goodbye to Link and Jasmine.
Watching Jimmy’s figure disappear at the end of the street, Jasmine let out a sigh, her green eyes watery as she looked at Link.
She could clearly remember more than half a year ago when they all left the Quote Archipelago, outwardly indifferent, yet inwardly brimming with confidence and ambition.
Who would have thought that it seemed like just yesterday that they stepped off the White Sail, discussing their individual choices, and Chris, who was used to shielding his sister from the rain, was already dead.
Without her brother’s protection, Christina’s future would definitely be more challenging.
Jasmine really wanted to help, but…
She had the will but not the power.
Even giving some Magic Stones seemed inappropriate.
After deep thought, Jasmine gives up this idea, or rather, buries it deeply in her heart.
If there is a day in the future when she can lend a hand, if she hasn’t forgotten her original intent today, let’s talk about it then.
Life is fragile, and the road is full of twists and turns.
How could Jasmine know what her future holds?
Whether to become a beast, numb with pain, fall into obscurity, or to take fate by the throat, refusing to be an expendable chess piece.
Her right hand moved slightly, wanting to reach out to pull on Link’s sleeve, but she let it drop and gave up.
“Let’s go, Link, let’s go back to the academy.”
Jasmine lowered her head, not letting Link see her eyes, she solemnly said, and then walked towards the station, walking ahead of Link.
Be brave, Jasmine.
Be independent, Jasmine!
Jasmine told herself this in her heart.
As she walked, she didn’t know what she was thinking about.
Suddenly, all the unhappiness, gloom, and grief were suddenly thrown behind by Jasmine.
She put her hands behind her back, and her steps changed from heavy to light, she moved forward with a bounce, her high ponytail swinging like her current mood.
Happiness was indeed contrasted.
Jasmine knew that thinking this way wasn’t good, it would be disliked.
But she truly felt that she was luckier and happier than most people.
She glanced back at Link, who was walking behind her, and the corners of her mouth lifted slightly.
This is pretty good.
Link couldn’t understand why the girl’s mood changed so quickly, he just quietly followed behind her.
People came and went on the platform, it was very bustling.
What a thriving sight, so different from the numb pain of the Southern District.
They took the mono-rail train back to the academy.
It was already late when they returned, but Jasmine still actively suggested going to the library to read and study.
Link had no objection, he also needed to look up some information.
They didn’t return to their respective dormitories until midnight.
As per usual, they practiced Deep Meditation after washing up, then went to sleep.
The next day, it was the fifth Saturday of the vacation.
Clearly, Wizard Palo’s advice has taken effect.
Zoran Archie, using very rough and inferior means, tried to test the importance of Link Grande in Wizard Palo’s heart, and then stopped his underground actions.
Link and Jasmine didn’t encounter any obstacles on their way to work, they arrived at the pharmacy shop smoothly.
This put Link’s mind at ease a bit.
It’s not that he was afraid of trouble, but that less trouble was certainly better.
“Link, come here.”
As soon as he walks into the pharmacy shop, Serene Wizard beckons to Link and calls him over.
“Good morning, Serene Wizard.”
Link walked over; he was quite charming, “If there is anything you need me to do, just let me know.”
Serene Wizard said: “Today, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, you’ll be responsible for the fine processing of plants and herbs for these three days.”
“No problem.”
Link didn’t even have to think about it, he immediately agreed.
After working part-time for more than a month, he was already familiar with the pre-processing of common plants and herbs in the pharmacy shop. Continuing to do pre-processing work, apart from improving his proficiency a little bit, he wouldn’t learn much new.
He had been coveting the fine processing for a long time.
Unfortunately, Wizard Tina did a good job, there was no opportunity to intervene.
Now that Serene Wizard took the initiative to bring it up, it couldn’t be better.
“Alright, if there’s nothing else, you can go.”
Serene Wizard waved her hand, dismissing Link, then she went back to enjoying her refreshing hot drink.
Link didn’t dawdle either, and immediately went with Jasmine, who was waiting by the side, to change into their uniforms.
It was clear that when Tina arrived, she had already received instructions from Serene Wizard. She patiently explained to Link the process of fine processing, the small tricks, and her own insights.
The process and small tricks were part of the normal work handover, the insights were Tina’s goodwill.
Indeed, it was over a month that Link has done the pre-processing very well, with almost no flaws, which brought convenience to Tina’s work, and this was the reward.
“Thankyou, Tina, you are so kind and beautiful!”
Link sincerely thanked her, his tone charming.
After all, Tina was the one who insisted that Link should call them “sisters” instead of “wizards”.
Having a sweet tongue won’t do any harm.
“Hehe.”
Tina giggled behind her hand, winking at Link, “You’re sweet, no wonder Jasmine is madly in love with you.”
“You’re joking.”
Link immediately cleared the air, “Our friendship is purely platonic, don’t speak nonsense.”
“Alright, whatever you say. If you have any problems, come to me, and I will help you if I am free,”
Tina did not continue to tease him, but left these words before turning and leaving, a gentle fragrance lingering in her wake.
Working at the potion shop, during the buzz of the Glasswort Series, they had to use Glasswort Fragrance and (or) perfume in order to not be targeted when going out.
The Witches’ Equality Union was not for play, it has already become a reality from a topic in the Ravensmouth forum.
Last night, the first Witches’ Equality Conference was held.
A few powerful women, famous Third-Level Wizards, were elected as presidents and vice-presidents of the Witches’ Equality Union.
Their program, demands, slogan, organizational structure struggle strategies, and means of struggle have all been discussed and turned into documents. They were distributed to the members of the union and also uploaded to the “Ravensmouth forum”.
The next step is to apply to the academy for the first equality struggle event.
Well… all of this was both relevant and irrelevant to Link.
After a series of vaunted discussions, the witches’ equality movement sparked by Link Grande and the Glasswort Series had minimized Link’s personal involvement. In the top thirty trending topics and posts on the “Ravensmouth Forum”, there was no trace of Link Grande.
This was a great outcome for Link.
Back to the main topic.
After Tina left, Link familiarized himself with the facilities and equipment in the operating room, carefully read the “Detailed Procedures for the Processing of Today’s Raw Materials”, and only started work after confirming all was in order.
Considering that he had to supply plants and herbs to Serene for potion refining on time.
Link’s work mode had to change a tad.
After pondering it over and arranging it rationally, various plants and herbs were successively pre-treated and precisely processed, then transported to the second floor’s potion refinery via the conveyor belt.
Doing so ensured the supply, but the downside was that Link was running around between the two operation rooms like a spinning top.
Luckily, he had spent the past month watching Tina’s operations during his spare time.
He knew all about the process and operation of processing various kinds of plants and herbs, even if he hadn’t executed them himself.
“You’re doing well.”
During lunchtime, Tina specifically praised Link, “Keep it up, I have high expectations foryou!”
The better Link did his job, the happier Tina would be.
As Serene’s Potion Distribution Assistant and soon-to-be Potion Refining Assistant. Tina could concentrate on aiding Serene on the second floor while also learning about potion refining. This was far more efficient than spending a lot of time on the precise processing of plants and herbs.
Whether it was work or study, it benefited Tina.
“Okay, I will.”
Link responded, “Thank you for your encouragement, Tina.”
At that time, Serene the wizard passed by and overheard their conversation. She added reluctantly, “It’s a shame that you won’t be staying for long. After next week, you have to go back to the academy and continue your studies.”
When she heard this, Tina exhibited a clear look of disappointment in her face.
A good assistant was hard to find.
And Serene’s expectations were high.
If no new colleague filled the gap in time, wouldn’t Tina have to handle the pre-treatment and precision processing of plants and herbs, as well as the potion distribution?
In that case, there would be no time left for her to strive for the position of Potion Refining Assistant.
Seeing Tina reminiscing, Serene didn’t let her continue, and directly clarified, “I have found someone who can replace Link in time, don’t worry.”
Hearing this, Tina couldn’t help but sigh in relief.
It was good that there was a replacement.
She doesn’t want to take a step back, losing time.
“Thank you, Serene.”
Tina sincerely thanked her, bursting with gratitude.
As the owner of the shop and a widely famous pharmacist, Serene didn’t need to explain for her sake.
“Would you like me to make Jasmine your assistant?”
Serene then looked at Link and asked.
This question was not easy to answer.
Link thought for a moment and said, “It depends on both your arrangements, Serene, and Jasmine’s will, I can accept either.”
Why didn’t he just agree?
The reason was not complicated, and it was twofold.
Firstly, Link did not want to make decisions on Jasmine’s behalf, especially big decisions that impact her.
Secondly, Jasmine was quite good as a guide, and processing plants and herbs could be studied back at the academy in the lab.
Of course, this was just Link’s personal opinion.
Everything depends on Serene’s decision, and Jasmine’s own choice.
“Alright, I’ll ask.”
Serene watched Link carefully, revealing a smile, however subtle.
No matter what Link was thinking, at least he showed respect for Jasmine. He did not treat her as a tool or a puppet.
This was very important.
It was also highly valued by Serene.
