Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times - Chapter 58.4

Such Great Talent (4)

The two went together to the management office. Anna retrieved the five parts of the wisteria extract that had been made yesterday, while Dawkins spent ten silver coins to buy a hundred units of wisteria.

The two returned to the potion lab, and Anna showed Dawkins the extract she made yesterday. Dawkins said in surprise, “It’s really good!”

He just wanted someone to help him, and it was fine as long as the product was mediocre. He never thought that the extract she had pretreated was so pure, even better than what he did!

“No problem, then I’ll start working on it.” Anna was also happy that her work was recognized, so she began her new job.

Dawkins responded casually with a hum, still observing the five extracts with joy, thinking how much these purer extracts could improve the success rate of his new potion experiment.

When he came back to his senses happily, he found that Anna was handling two units of wisteria with both hands at the same time. His expression did a 180 and he wanted to stop her, but was afraid of startling her. It was not worth it for him to scare away the assistant that he had waited so long for, so he quickly covered his mouth and watched secretly from the side.

Although it would be a pity to lose these two units of wisteria… but if he could find an assistant, even if he lost all one hundred units of wisteria, it would still be worth it!

Dawkins watched secretly, and the more he looked, the more frightened he became.

Anna first used the fire element method to crispen the wisteria. He had seen others use it, but because he did not have any affinity for the fire element, he couldn’t use it. He could only use the old method, which was time-consuming and laborious. It was not a big surprise to be able to use this trick, but her stability and proficiency in using it made him feel inferior.

After that, her extraction of the water element was more like art, performed without any mistakes.

It took forty minutes for Anna to process the two extracts, whereas it would take more than an hour for him to process one by himself.

Dawkins inspected in admiration the extracts that Anna had just made; these two were even better than the previous five.

He kept complimenting, and thinking of what he heard from Teresa, he couldn’t help asking: “Anna, have you really just become a mage disciple for less than a month?”

“It’s true.” Anna didn’t hide it, “I didn’t have the chance to get in touch with magic in the past. I saved up five gold coins to come to the Mage Association.”

“Oh, then you have been delayed for the past ten years!” Dawkins sighed. He looked at Anna and said regretfully, “If you had come two years earlier, I wouldn’t have to make extracts in such a miserable way! ”

Anna: “…”

He forgot to consider that, with her talent, she might have become a one-star or two-star mage two years earlier, so how could she make extract for him?

Anna was a kind person and did not reveal this cruel truth to strike down Mage Dawkins. She said: “No problem, then I will continue to make them. I can make twenty units in a row; I can probably finish this afternoon.”

“Okay, you quickly go on!” Dawkins smiled brightly when he heard Anna say that she could make twenty units in one afternoon.

Even if he worked until he was exhausted, he could only make ten units in one day, whereas she could make twenty units in one afternoon. If she was given two hours of meditation to restore her spiritual power, she could make twenty units again. That was forty units in one day! Wouldn’t  that mean that he could do two new potion experiments every three days? And his faraway, indefinite goal, would it be possible for him to shift it to an earlier date?

Dawkins laughed until his mouth could not close. Originally, he wanted to make the extracts with Anna, so that the process could be sped up. He initially expected that she would be able to make five or six units a day, but he didn’t expect this.

Although Dawkins himself was a mage with poor talent, otherwise he wouldn’t still be a two-star mage at such an old age, but of course he knew what a mage with great talent looked like.

They looked just like Anna.

It hadn’t been long since she joined the Mage Association, but she learned quickly and learned well. Her spiritual power was far stronger than that of an ordinary mage’s disciple, and her micro-manipulation ability was outstanding.

And what was rare was that she was calm and stable, without the rushed carelessness of a general young adolescent, giving off a very reliable feeling.

When Anna completed the two extractions stably and safely, Dawkins said while admiring, “Anna, do you know that your own talent is very high?”

“I know. A mage friend of mine told me this; I also learn things very quickly.” Anna chatted while starting the next pretreatment of the extract.

Dawkins shook his head regretfully. Sure enough, how could free things just fall from the sky? He even thought that if this little girl didn’t know that she was this talented, he could take advantage of her and accept her as an apprentice… Well, forget it, for someone with such incomparably poor talent, he shouldn’t delay the future of others. .

Before she was discovered and fought over by other mages, it was only reasonable to have her to help him make more extracts!

Dawkins instantly made up his mind not to tell other senior mages that there was a good seedling who would definitely become a four-star mage and even had hope of becoming a five-star mage. He was not greedy, he would let her help him for a month.….No, half a month of wisteria extraction was also good!
