Chapter 410: Chapter 106: Reconciliation? Talk after a Hard Hit_1
“Let’s go in first.”
Link came back to his senses, heading towards the villa and gesturing for Jasmine to follow.
“Oh.”
Jasmine, holding Link’s right hand with both of hers, hopped along into the house.
Her lips constantly spread into a radiant smile, her eyes squinting slightly from laughter.
Even the air seemed sweeter than before.
Entering the house, they headed straight to the dining room. Jasmine called for the intelligent housekeeper to bring hot drinks and snacks.
She acted as though she was the master of the villa.
The two of them sat down on soft chairs. Seeing that Link still seemed preoccupied, Jasmine asked with concern, “You seem preoccupied. Is something wrong?”
Link replied honestly, “We were only over there for about half a day.”
“Half a day?”
Upon hearing this, Jasmine abruptly stood up.
As a top student, she knew that different worlds had different passage rates of time.
When she first learnt about this concept, there was so much information about space-time view, relativity, reference frames, metrics, etc. which sounded overwhelming.
Just looking at all the complex formulas alone made her scalp tingle, not to mention delving deeper into understanding them.
It felt as if figuring this out was doubling the size of her brain and there wasn’t necessarily any guarantee of fully grasping it.
Jasmine also knew that time in the Wizard World, as a civilization of the superior class, was considered one of the most precious commodities amongst all heavens and realms.
There was someone who had once tried practicing in a world of medium civilization where three years was equivalent to a day in the Wizard World, for ten years.
He had thought that he might stun the world with his secret efforts.
Upon returning to the Wizard World, however, he discovered two facts that completely shattered him:
Firstly, his ten years of hard work in the medium civilization world had been reduced to ashes;
The will of the Wizard World did not recognize it.
Secondly, his peers were still potential-filled teenagers with endless possibilities, while he had been deemed to be part of the bottom layer of society with no future prospects;
Never mind stunning the world, he didn’t even have a future to speak of.
Since then, unless the world is “infected” by the will of the Wizard World and has a unified time flow and certain rules, allowing normal cultivation with effects no different from that of the homeland, no wizards were willing to stay long in strange, undeveloped different worlds.
If they had so much time, they would rather choose to stay in the homeland for gradual cultivation if the returns weren’t sufficient.
Besides, the passage of time in the Wizard World has always been slower than in other worlds.
Jasmine had never heard of any other world with a slower passage of time compared to the Wizard World.
According to Link’s words, the world where the academy had exchanged learning experiences with the Shadow City this time was indeed quite special.
So special that it seems to all participants, including Link, had wasted an extremely precious month and a half.
If this one and a half month had passed in the homeland, the Brotherhood Group might have all been promoted to official wizards by now!
But now, they were still third-class wizard apprentices.
“How were the benefits provided by the academy?”
After the shock, Jasmine focused on a key point, “Could it compensate for the loss?”
If the benefits or compensations provided by the academy weren’t good enough, the losses would be substantial.
“I don’t know yet.”
Link glanced at his personal smart device, made sure there were no new notifications, and shook his head.
Soon after, he felt that continuing to talk about this topic was pointless.
Given the situation, what benefits could complaining or condemning bring besides venting emotions?
Link took the initiative to change the subject, asking, “Has anything of significant impact or that I need to aware of happened this month and a half?”
“There is!”
Jasmine sat back down, picking up the “ice cream black tea + bubble tea” made by the intelligent housekeeper according to Link’s recipe, took a small sip and savored its delicious taste.
She then said leisurely:
“There are two things related to you.
The first is that Zoran Lucia returned to the homeland on the third day of your exchange trip, but was urgently recalled by the academy after hosting an internal meeting and sent to the front line battlefield;
The second is that the Lucia family, the day after Zoran was summoned, sent a message through the Serene Wizard wanting to make amends with you.”
Hearing this, Link immediately became serious and asked, “Are details known?”
Jasmine shook her head: “I asked the Serene Wizard, and she said there were a lot of things involved and asked me not to inquire more to avoid distractions, suggesting that I should wait for you to return and ask her personally.”
“I see.”
Link fell into deep thought.
Vital information that the Serene Wizard considers important must be unusual.
Seems like he needs to contact the Serene Wizard as soon as possible.
Turning around, Link looked through the floor-to-ceiling windows at the dimming sun in the west, deciding to have an in-depth talk with the Serene Wizard after finishing this afternoon meal.
He picked up the translucent glass cup, blew off a few tea leaves, gently tasted the liquid, initially slightly bitter, enjoying the pleasant aftertaste of the “green tea”.
He felt completely relaxed, from the inside out.
All pressure, thoughts, and worries went on a hiatus.
As a decent pharmacist, how could the tea leaves processed by Link merely satisfy his taste buds?
They must also posses additional, potion-like special effects.
Green tea clears the mind, black tea pleases the heart, and white tea nourishes the internal organs.
Each type of tea has its own function.
Once the research on tea drinks matures, the Grande Potion Shop may even consider tea drinks as a major product for sale.
Thinking this, Link swallowed the tea, enjoyed the lingering taste as he asked, “How’s the business at the potion shop?”
