585 A One-Day Trip in Allyn (2/2)
After the assistants left, Heidi summoned her courage to ask, ”Your Majesty, how did your relationship with our master begin? All the sorcerers in Allyn are curious about it!”
”Just say that you are curious about it, lovely little girl.” Natasha looked at Heidi with a vague smile. ”Long story short, I pushed your master over.”
Heidi and Layria both raised their thumbs. How majestic! Being straightforward seemed the best solution to deal with a mild man like their master!
”You seem quite free today.” Lucien interjected. ”I'll give you another mission. You can study the mechanism of the ancillary computation circles.”
Heidi looked awful. Their teacher had obvious translated his embarrassment into a task.
”If you want to know the details, I'll tell them to you later.” Natasha followed Lucien to the laboratory with a smile.
After she entered the laboratory, Natasha saw the sharp, cold and simple alchemical devices inside and the indescribable patterns on the experiment platforms, giving permanent shock.
”This is entirely different from my mother's laboratory. It has more… beauty of the space.” Shocked, Natasha tried to express her feeling.
”Such is the charm of arcana and magic. Come here, try this cyclotron.” Lucien shared his studies with Natasha.
After activating the cyclotron, Natasha saw the dreamy traces of electrons in the cloud room. She exclaimed in amazement, ”Are they tiny electrons?”
Lucien was about to answer, when the voltage part of the cyclotron suddenly broke down.
”It's not my fault…” Natasha didn't think she had made any mistakes with the operation.
Lucien checked it. ”It's regular attrition. Come here and try this magnifying magic circle.”
A moment later, Natasha said innocently again, ”This is really not my fault.”
”Of course. It's also regular attrition…”
After Lucien's tour with Natasha, three alchemical devices and two magic circles crashed. Although they took up less than one percent, it was still the attrition of almost one month.
”Perhaps they are scared of me?” Scratching her chin, Natasha carefully looked for an excuse for such an anomaly.
Amused, Lucien said, ”Soon enough, you will be given the title of 'Experiment Device Destroyer'.”
”It's definitely because I was not lucky today!” Declared Natasha resolutely.
......
Lucien showed Natasha the central area of Allyn and returned to his magic tower at noon.
”This is more whimsical and fantastic than the Atomic Institution… Well designed.” Natasha was shocked by Lucien's 'Babel' again.
”Nice to meet you, masteress.” 'Pinocchio' greeted her.
Very interested in the wisdom of alchemical life, Natasha looked at Lucien and asked, ”You didn't teach him?”
”Of course not.” Lucien secretly raised his thumb at Pinocchio.
Pinocchio replied proudly, ”I am the smart Pinocchio!”
”I remember that Pinocchio was a puppet whose nose grew long if he told lies in your tale.” Natasha chuckled, ”Was it a metaphor that you tricked many people?”
Pinocchio said loudly, ”No, I'm not a lying puppet; I'm the honest Pinocchio. Yes, very honest!”
Lucien pulled Natasha into the magic tower with a smile and stopped her from further teasing Pinocchio.
After visiting the magic tower and the magic garden, they returned to the living room and waited for lunch.
When Lucien was about to discuss schools and laws with Natasha, Natasha suddenly rose and closed the door of the living room, before she looked at Lucien with a mischievous smile.
”What's up?” Asked Lucien in confusion.
Natasha kept her smile. ”Let me tell you a piece of good news. By perceiving the rules inside the Sword of Truth, I have already advanced into level nine. I've finally surpassed you again.'
Born a knight, she was very happy that her strength would be higher for the time being. She knew that Lucien, whose cognitive world had half-solidified, would surpass her eventually, so she decided to make the best use of the years while she had the 'dominance'.
Therefore, she rubbed her fists eagerly. ”I'll hug you in exactly the same way you did to me! I'm going to relish it!”
While talking, she sensed Lucien's mood carefully. She would give up if he disliked her being too pushy. It was the fundamental principle of their relationship.
Lucien was delighted at Natasha's improvement at first, but then he simply stood there with a smile.
Seeing no objection from Lucien, Natasha intentionally walked to Lucien slowly and extended her hands at him with wicked laughter.
But all of a sudden, Natasha realized that Lucien was as terrifying as a pillar that was deeply rooted in the earth and could not be moved. Then, she sensed an enormous force on her back and her legs, before she was swept off her feet, unable to resist.
She waved her hands and feet crazily, trying to free herself, but his arms were like two unbreakable manacles.
”You have already advanced into legendary?”
Natasha was back to herself and asked in disbelief, her eyes widened. She was both delighted and panicked, both awed and upset.
......
The dinner was much later than scheduled. Looking at Natasha who was unusually exhausted, Lucien said in a great mood, ”I'll entrust the regulation of the alchemical workshops to you.”
Blushing, and with persistence burning inside her body, Natasha swore that she would try to become a legend!
She nodded her head. ”I'll ask Duke James to propose a bill to the parliament. Right, the intelligence department mentioned that the dwarf craftsmen are worshiping a mysterious God of Steam. Why do I have the feeling that it has something to do with you?”
