Sotia blushed after hearing thatment and felt like burying her head in the sand like an ostrich.


    Sofia rolled her eyes at She and said, “Is it okay if you avoid bringing that up again in the future? It’s


    mortifying.”


    She replied nonchntly, “What’s there to be mortified about? If you like someone, then the best


    thing you can do is go for them. You managed to win his heart in the end, didn’t you?


    Severin could not help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation at She’s candidness.


    Sofia could not suppress herughter either, but as she smiled, a thought crossed her mind and she


    added, “Perhaps Miss Stephanie has found her way here? You spent quite some time together with her


    in the foggy forest, and you also joined forces with her to deal with the Devil Gang.”


    “It’s possible, but could it be Stephanie? She did mention that she would be away for a mission, and


    she might drop by here with the excuse of meeting an old friend,” She spected enthusiastically.


    Sofia, She, and Diane had discussed the incident that transpired in the foggy forest, so everyone


    was aware of Severin’s encounter with Stephanie there.


    Severin chuckled wryly and decided to find out who it was. “Let’s go outside and see who it could be.”

    Diane and She were equally curious as they followed Severin out. When they reached the entrance,


    they encountered an attractive woman in a sexy red skirt who, upon spotting Severin, eximed with


    excitement, “Master, Master! I told them I’m your alchemy apprentice, but none of them believed me!


    They said you only have one male apprentice and no female ones.” “Elsa? It’s you! It’s been so long


    since west saw you that we thought you weren’ting,” Diane said excitedly as she stepped


    forward and shook Elsa’s hand.


    The guards at the gate looked bewildered. They seemned to be wondering why they had not heard of


    Severin having such a beautiful apprentice before.


    Diane nodded and said, “Yes, her name is Elsa Lingard. She’s my new apprentice, so don’t forget her


    face”


    Elsa smiled slyly and exined to Diane, “I’m no faol. I’ll be heree rain or shine. ving a master


    third–grade alchemy genius like him as my master is something that would make anyune jealous. I was


    determined toe here. I initially thought ofing earlier, but my boss dyed his approval for a


    couple of days before finally giving his consent. Then I decided that I might as well visit my family in my


    hometown since I have some time to spare, and onlyter on I managed to find my way


    here”


    Severin smiled and said, “It’s good that you’re here now, I did promise to teach you alchemy, so I’ll


    keep my word and instill all my knowledge in you.”


    Elsa grinned and asked, “Should I buy a vi elsewhere, or should I stay here?”


    Severin was a little speechless because Elsa asked that question on purpose even though she clearly


    preferred to stay there. He chuckled and replied, “We have plenty of vacant cours here. Diane will


    arrange one for you!
