Chapter 431

"The Great Chemist?"

The four were all in shock, and Lily answered, "That's correct. That day, we went out to forage for herbs together with our master, and we bumped into you. Our master rarely cared about other people, but for some reason, he decided to save you." It's odd, indeed.

"Can we see The Great Chemist?" Vania asked pleadingly.

"Since he saved you, of course, he'll meet you."

Vania's eyes lit up in joy. However, before she could celebrate, Lily continued, "But he's currently developing some medicine right now, and he'll only be available tomorrow."

"We don't have to rush things now, as long as we get to see him." Hanson comforted Vania, after which he looked at Lily and asked in a gentle voice, "May I know your name?"

Lily crossed her arms and humphed in her mind as she said stubbornly, "No, you may not."

You, my friend, have stolen the beautiful lady from me. Hmph!

They only met each other for three days, so there wasn't much interaction between Vania and Lily, but Lily already had the desire to occupy all of Vania's attention.


Seeing her stubborn behavior, Hanson raised an eyebrow. She reminded him of the babies at home. He was probably not suited to ask for anyone's name. He had asked for names just a few times but was rejected in every instant. Even a five-year-old had dismissed him.

Vania smiled and thought that Lily was adorable indeed, and she loved Lily to bits.

Seeing Vania's expression, Lily immediately spoke up. "Beautiful lady, you mustn't tell him my name, or I won't be friends with you either."

Vania smiled as she nodded, promising, "Okay, I won't tell him." Then, she was a little confused. "But what should I call you?"

Thinking for a bit, Lily said, "Since I call you 'beautiful lady', you can call me 'pretty girl'."

"All right, pretty girl." Vania could tell that Lily was one with a keen eye for aesthetics.

Just then, there was the sound of a door opening outside.

Lily said in surprise, "It's our master."

Without a second thought, Vania and Hanson immediately darted outside.

"Hm? So quick?" Realizing that they were gone, Lily followed them outside as well.

Meanwhile, The Great Chemist had emerged from his medicine-developing session and was standing upright at the entrance. Because of his old age, he had a long beard which made him look almost immortal.

"Mr. Great Chemist," Hanson and Vania said respectfully.

The Great Chemist studied Vania with a glance, then said to them, "Come with me."

After that, he pointed at Lily. "You wait outside."

"Oh?" She looked at Vania, a little reluctant to part from her.
