《Another life》Chapter 8:
Advertisement
In the end mom, and the others came back so late I ended up sleeping with grandpa. With all of the snores he made, it's pretty uncomfortable to sleep.
Originally I plan on to practice my magic while grandpa's asleep, but with how perceptive he is I wasn't able to do that. So I just get some rest, and fell asleep.
When morning comes, grandpa woke me up with his loud voice. I don't know if he's doing it on purpose or not, but it's seriously hurting my ears.
After I woke up, and take a shower a few maids came to the room bringing today's breakfast.
Like yesterday the food was delicious! After we had breakfast grandpa took me out for a walk around town, a change of pace is good once in a while,and I'm really bored so might as well went along with it.
We head out with clothes that are decent enough. It's not as fancy as what nobles would usually wear, but it's not that bad compare to the commoners in the capital.
Before we leave I take a look where my family's is, all of them were sleeping, and peacefully too. So I decided to leave quietly without making any sound.
We look around the capital, bought some foods along the way, and take a rest once in a while.
We visit several places like the church, a clothes store, a book store, a weapons store, and to some guilds like the merchant guild, the craftsmen guild, and of course the most common guild on fantasy world the adventure guild.
Whhen I saw the adventure guild, I ask him the rules, and the conditions to join them
Grandpa doesn't know what the rules are but he did know that everyone can be an adventure when they turn 10.

I'm surprised they allow kids at 10 to be an adventure at first, but that quickly fade away when grandpa told me the reason.
It seems that kids from the age of 10 can be an adventure as long as there's someone above 15 to watch, and help us.
If there's no one to do that, then the guild will have one of their staff monitor them, or paired them up with some random adventure.
Make sense if you ask me, who on their right mind would let children go hunting without anyone to supervise?
After our little tour came to an end we head back to the mansion to eat lunch.
As soon as we arrived to the mansion, a maid comes and told us that lunch is ready and all of my family members are waiting for us in the dining.
We went to the dining room, and took a sit. Mom, and Cecilica ask me what were we doing, while dad and Lyle are talking about something with grandpa.
The maids then came, while bringing our food and placed them on the table. Grandpa said a few words, and permit us to eat
While we were eating, Cecilica told us what she did yesterday at Lyle's fiancé house, and then it's Lyle's turn, after that mom's, next dad, and then grandpa's.
Finally it’s my turn to share my story, so I did with a few alteration, and hide some things like meeting with Whis.
By the way Whis is the book I found yesterday. I named it Whis, because it's a lot more easier to call him that.
At first he didn't really like hearing that, but eventually he got used to it.
After we finish eating our lunch, we split around and do things. Mom, and Cecilica go on shopping, Lyle, dad, and grandpa are outside sparring, while I coped up in my room practicing my magic. It's lonely I know.

After a few minutes I start practicing magic, It’s time to try Alchemy but first of all I need some ingredients, something to draw with, a pot, and something to put the potion on to. So I went to the kitchen to fetch those things.
I ask the maids to give me a few bottles for the potion, a pot to put the ingredients, and finally I search around the kitchen to get the ingredients that I needed.
Luckily, I found the ingridients that I need to make the potion. After I got what I needed I return to my room.
I put he pot on the floor, and start preparing the ingredients. Before I pdecided he ingredients, I make sure that none of them are rotten.
‘Hmm, now what?’
‘Since the potion you're trying to make are the basic one you can just start making them without using magic circle to transmute, and refine them.’
‘Well that's good, cause I don't really understand the whole transmuting, and refining thing.’
I check around, and make sure that no one is around and start making the potion.
With all the ingredients inside the pot, I use water magic ,pour the water to the pot, and heat it with fire magic and make sure not to overheat it.
I stir the ingredients by using water magic. The reason I did this is because because it's more practical this way, even though it cost more mana than usual.
While stirring, I make sure that the ingredients are dissolved and mix them well with the water. It took, quite some time to do this.
After finishing mixing them, I poured them to the bottles, and make sure there's nothing left.
The result? There are 6 healing potions (According to what Whis said) and are ready to be consumed.
Problem is I have no way to test it out if this thing works or not, so I decided to go to the backyard and have Lyle,dad, or grandpa to try it.
I know it's a horrible thing to do, but I'm not willing to taste something I'm not sure of.
When I arrived to the backyard, Lyle,dad, and grandpa are resting. Grandpa notice me, and ask me. What am I doing there.
I told him that I try to make some potions, and ask him to try it. He didn't quite believe what I just said, and are having doubt to taste them. I suppose it's natural.
Lyle then suddenly take the potion from my hand, and drank it. That's.. Pretty brave.
After he drink the potion, the cuts on his arms are starting to close, and the bruise are returning to normal.
Grandpa was surprised when he saw that, and ask me if I have more of them. I told him, that I have about 4 left, and gave them to grandpa.
I'm keeping one, in case of emergencies if you're wondering why I gave him 4 instead of 5.
After he inspect the potion, he gave 3 of them to the maid and told her to sell it to the market.
One of the maids came and called us for dinner, so we went to the dining room and have dinner with mom, and Cecilica in there as well.
While we were having dinner, all of us talk what happened today. Mom, and Cecilica were quite surprised when they heard that.
After dinner end we head back to our respective rooms and sleep. Today was enjoyable.
