The room was now clean and tidy again. Rayan invites the young man to clean the room they made chaotic to return clean and beautiful to the eye. Because, as a girl who is obsessed with the beauty of abstinence for Rayan to see something that damages his eyes. Be that as it may, making things beautiful first just starting a goal is the most effective way to get things going. Because, what we like can usually trigger success in doing something.
Like the case, Rayan who loves beauty makes it unable to work if the surroundings are full of chaos not to mention there are unpleasant smells to inhale.
That's really disturbing.
Prok!
Prok!
"Done!" meriang Rayan patted his palm as a gesture every time he finished doing something work. Especially homework that tends to clean up.
Jun Jiu Han nodded as he looked at the room he and Hong Tan were in. Hong Tan and Ruobin were silent after helping clean the room.
The other does not know what to do and the other is more obedient indifferent.
"Good! Now, let's get started!" serang Rayan. "Tell me, where do you start?" rayan asked then while looking at the two young men the age of the owner of his body in turn.
Hong Tan stared in Rayan's figure for longer with a difficult gaze. To be honest, he did not want to divulge their duties to strangers. But, on the other hand what Jun Jiu Han said was true, he could not wait any longer. Experimenting takes time. Although the exam assignments given are not demanded by time, still as a learner who has been instructed to memorize dozens of books on the types of herbs and learn how to experiment with all of them using their internal powers should they be smarter using all of the resources they need they also make the best use of their time.
"How much are you asking us to help?" hong Tan asked suddenly in a cold tone that seemed to give a distance, as if asserting to whoever was spoken to that person should not cross the line.
Also, he acts as if he knows that Rayan will ask for a fee for the help that the girl provided.
Rayan was stunned to hear that and Ruobin then frowned unexpectedly would hear such a question. Jun Jiu Han was even stunned to grimace at what his best friend had just done.
Feel bad for guests who have to hear these words.
"Hong Tan, what are you doing.." Jun Jiu Han's inner voice screamed uncomfortably.
"What did you say? 'eeee... How much did I ask for? Did I not hear wrong?" turned towards Ruobin with an expression of astonishment upon hearing what she had just heard. Amazed in an unexpected sense. "Bin-bin, did you hear that too?" ask Ruobin to make sure.
Ruobin did not answer Rayan's question, but instead stepped closer to the young man named Hong Tan until they were a step away.
"You know, why do you always fail to do your job, especially on the task you're doing now?" ruobin asked no less coldly, her voice even sounded quite heavy and deep with a gloomy aura coming out. The silver fox demon was very unhappy with the way Hong Tan spoke to her Rayan. Especially the words he spilled.
Obviously he's not happy. He knew what Rayan was like. Although it sounds futile and too arbitrary when choosing to share knowledge with anyone who needs it. Not that Rayan does not know what risks he will bear because of it.
That's why he doesn't get in the way of what his human friends do.
"That's because your mind is too dirty!" he said, then walked back to the original position.
Hong Tan was stunned to hear that, the person he had just met was really presumptuous in his opinion. It makes him unhappy to be offended too. Just because he was a medium-level demon, that meant having a power higher than himself. That doesn't mean you can be arrogant.
But what he said made him wonder a little. Is that really what makes him fail more often?
The words reminded him of the lessons he had learned, namely about inner calmness and mind which all greatly influenced human perfection in his cultivation.
Rayan started to smile while playing her long hair, looking at Hong Tan with an amused look. "Young Master Hong Tan. You're so funny." the tone was flirtatious. "Is this what you always tell everyone you meet when they give you help? Can't you tell the difference between selfless and selfless help? Huhhhhh... It's not comfortable at all... Worth it, you don't look like a person who has a broad association." he said casually but booed.
Jlep!
Hong Tan could quite feel it.
Stepping closer to the young man, then walking around him before finally stopping right in front of him. The distance between the two was close enough that Hong Tan could feel the scent of fresh flowers from Rayan's body.
Looking up directly at the handsome face of Hong Tan who was now looking down returned his gaze. "Don't be too often prejudiced. You have to use your instincts to see what a bad person looks like. That's also the reason you don't improve your abilities. An alchemist must have a high peace of soul. Know why? Because we need a lot of concentration. Also, it more often blends with nature, plays a wide variety of herbs, concocts them into medicines, or even breaks them into toxins. You can also use poisonous plants. But, if the mind of an alchemist cannot calm down you will only fail." said Rayan as calm as the lake water without ripples.
"Mental an alchemist must be strong and not easily shaken. Which means, it must have a high concentration and solid. If you often use all your emotions without being able to control them accompanied by your unclean mind. The lessons you've learned so far will only be in vain. It doesn't matter how deep your interest is in this field." he continued.
Retreating a few steps gave some distance, ignoring Hong Tan's stunned face which seemed to have realized something. The face is now a little paled. The young man's eyes, moving stiffly stared at Rayan.
As if he had been hit with a giant hammer capable of breaking something, Hong Tan felt he had been made aware of something.
Rayan only gave her a sweet but thin smile that was full of meaning.
"Ehem. All right, can we start now?" the question diverted, as if the tension that had just occurred had never occurred at all.
Since then he just watched, because he did not know what to do to his best friend who was being advised by a stranger. Especially by a girl who he himself did not know how high his abilities were in the world of alchemy.
"Then, let's start with... What tasks were assigned to you?" ask Rayan again. Since this is a school assignment, it certainly cannot be said to carelessly choose.
"Hm... It's..." Jun Jiu Han was still nervous to be completely honest, because he really did not want to make his best friend misunderstand just because he made a decision without considering him, although Jun Jiu Han actually had a right to the task as well. That was because he remembered very well how difficult it was to conquer the heart of that one young man.
"Destroying herbal ingredients into poison!" hong Tan suddenly said, making all the eyes there look at him.
Although not while looking at Rayan who asked, but Rayan knew that the young man had found the answer of what he had to decide.
Therefore, Rayan smiled thin and beautiful for him.
No!
Flicking his fingers enthusiastically. "That's a simple thing. But it's also hard at the same time. Hehe.." he said honestly.
Jun Jiu Han and Hong Tan immediately looked at him in disbelief. How could Rayan say the task was easy.
"Is that what he is?" ask them in your heart.
Walk to the table in the room. "So, what herbal ingredients do you use to make poison?" rayan asked while supporting his body with both hands pressed onto the table. Staring at Jun Jiu Han and Hong Tan in turn.
Aware of his shock, Jun Jiu Han immediately replied. "It... We were given the task to collect medicinal ingredients for bloody cough. From those herbal ingredients, we were assigned to find out... What poison can be produced." he explained without hesitation, whether he was conscious or uncertain at the end of his pronunciation he was stunned until he spontaneously turned to look at Hong Tan.
Afraid that the other young man was unhappy with what he was doing.
But, it turns out that didn't happen. Jun Jiu Han actually saw him nodding as a form of cooperation.
Breath also came out a sign of relief to see it.
Honestly Rayan did not understand why Jun Jiu Han looked scared of Hong Tan. But that's not very important to him. More importantly was in front of his eyes right now.
Rayan nodded understandingly hearing that. "Herbal material to treat bloody cough, yes... Hmm?" think for a moment. "Show me the materials you've collected. Is there still?" ask Rayan.
"Oh sure." moving to take the medicinal ingredients from within his dimensional space. It was inside the space ring.
Rayan who saw it, could not help but grimace. Because he did not have the space ring that many cultivators in this ancient world used. It's nothing, it's because he and his two best friends can't afford it yet. Although Ruobin would never give her hers, but Rayan obviously refused. It was not from his work, obviously he could not accept.
"This is it" he said after putting the 6 herbal ingredients they needed on the table.
Return to focus on the task. Rayan looked at the table where all the herbal ingredients were placed. Then he nodded in confirming.
"The ingredients are right. You guys turned out to have done nothing wrong on the first step." a little praise. Because, before Rayan had thought that they failed because they had been wrong in collecting the needed medicinal ingredients.
"Of course, we're already in 3rd grade, if that's still wrong. I don't think we should go to school anymore." Jun Jiu Han joked.
"Haha... You're right." Rayan's laugh was crisp.
Thereafter. "Okay, let's get started. I'll tell you what these 6 herbs can do. But, after I thought. Because this is your job. Then I will not touch your duty. You just have to listen to my instructions and do it yourself. Think of this as also a new lesson from the new teacher." his coolness is cute with his sweetest smile, not forgetting he also brushed his hair proudly.
Although not used to seeing it, Jun Jiu Han and Hong Tan chose not to say anything.
Then, they began to work under Rayan's direction by being supervised by Ruobin.
Both of them looked like professional examination supervisors.
sorry for waiting so long.
Thor again trying to make crazy up yes, so please just wait.
