Chapter 801: I, Lan Qingyou, Have Natural Beauty!

~7 min read 1,288 words

The two just looked at each other like this.

Neither moved anymore.

It felt like playing '1, 2, 3 Wooden Man'.

"No, you still have to put on makeup when going shopping?"

"You've never put on makeup?"

"I, Lan Qingyou, have natural beauty!"

"..."

Lan Qingyou's one sentence directly silenced Elisa.

Natural beauty?

But! Isn't it a matter of course to put on makeup when going shopping?

Why is this guy speaking so self-righteously about not putting on makeup instead?

"Could this be the cultural difference between East and West?"

"Who knows, anyway at least I can't come up with this heaven-defying idea of making a set of special effects for myself."

Lan Qingyou's two outputs were very successful.

Causing Elisa, who was originally holding the special effect makeup box in her hand, to stop her action of opening it.

"Ah... you don't need to mind me, just do what you have to do. Life is all about making yourself feel good first."

"Besides, whether it's you or me, we both have infinite lifespans, there's no need to make ourselves overly cautious."

"It's still the same sentence, learn to reconcile with yourself."

Although Lan Qingyou didn't know what she was talking about either.

But after saying these few sentences, she felt her whole person had relaxed a lot, and become much more joyful.

She even turned around and left humming a little tune.

Leaving behind only Elisa, who had stopped her movements, sitting alone in the study blankly.

This was getting even.

Getting even for the scene from a few days ago.

This point, Elisa could still see through.

But!

Even if she said that, the special effects that should be done still had to be done, and the makeup that should be put on still had to be put on.

After all, she had already made it, and the response was also very enthusiastic.

At the very least, when walking on the street, the head-turning rate was guaranteed.

Even if she didn't like to talk, but if it was just letting people look, then it was still no problem.

"Is Miss Lan going out?"

Over here.

When seeing Lan Qingyou walk out of the study, the maid was startled.

After all, whoever it was, they would probably be frightened by someone who hadn't gone out for several days right.

Especially under the circumstance that they only just learned the other party was an Alchemist today.

You should know Alchemists are notoriously hard to serve.

But these two didn't seem to be that difficult.

Instead, they were very relaxed.

So after seeing Lan Qingyou, the maid only panicked slightly for a moment like this.

But she was a professional.

This was her profession after all.

After a moment of panic, she immediately adjusted her mindset and respectfully asked with a smile.

"Mm, it's been so many days, constantly sitting makes it easy for the stomach to grow fat."

Lan Qingyou nodded and floated outside.

And the maid didn't say anything more.

Just silently followed behind the other party like this.

Fortunately Lan Qingyou didn't fly fast, she could keep up even with small steps.

As for why it was only 'Miss Lan' alone and not two people, she didn't ask much.

She just glanced at the other maid before leaving.

The meaning was very simple, I'll follow this one, the other one is handed over to you.

Regarding this, the other maid also understood implicitly.

This kind of thing was very common, it wasn't a big deal.

The result was that this remaining maid, following behind Elisa who was covered in special effects, was nearly blinded by the special effects.

...

"Strange, it was quite bustling when we entered the city a few days ago, why does it feel much deserted today?"

Not long after coming out of the private villa, Lan Qingyou floating on the main road noticed something wrong.

The originally lively and crowded street was now cold and deserted.

Many merchants had even directly closed up shop.

You should know it was only afternoon now.

Even if it was evening, according to this level of commercial prosperity, there should still be people.

Why had it become like this now instead?

"Miss Lan might not know, but tonight is the day of the Mana Tide, so everyone closed their shops early and went home to wait."

Seeing Lan Qingyou seemed not to understand very well, the maid behind her smiled and explained to her.

"Uh..."

Mana Tide!?

Oh right, she even forgot about this matter.

Lan Qingyou was stunned for a moment, then immediately remembered.

To be honest, since arriving in this world a thousand years ago, many things had changed.

So Lan Qingyou no longer viewed this world using the world they stayed in a thousand years later.

This change in mindset was naturally a good thing.

It was just a slight deviation.

But it was harmless.

At least she remembered it now right?

It was just that... this town looked like the kind that didn't have a protective magic array.

Was this really alright?

Looking at the appearance of these surrounding shops, it was obvious it would directly affect the interior of the town.

That was why they closed up shop, and why they closed the doors and windows tightly.

Was it for the sake of not affecting the interior of the store?

Just this simple protection that couldn't even be called protection?

"It feels like it's not very sturdy. Can this really block the ravages of the Mana Tide?"

Lan Qingyou stopped and turned around to look at the maid.

"This... although I don't know what you mean by ravages, but the Mana Tide shouldn't have reached that level right...?"

The asked maid also didn't know how to answer Lan Qingyou's question.

She even felt Lan Qingyou was testing her.

So she gathered her courage.

"How did Miss Lan deal with it when the Mana Tide came in the past?"

She was very curious.

She felt the question this Miss Lan asked was as if she had never experienced a Mana Tide.

Making people somewhat confused.

"In the past? In the past I just drew a magic array and then put up a magic shield and that was it."

Lan Qingyou answered the other party's question directly without even thinking.

There was nothing hard to say about this.

Or rather, Lan Qingyou judged that saying this kind of thing wasn't a big deal.

Although the books she read these past few days didn't mention the two natural phenomena of Mana Tides and Mana Turbulence.

But many other things were recorded.

Especially things like magic, mana, and magic arrays which basically appeared in every single book.

That's right, they even appeared in cooking books.

So Lan Qingyou was very certain that at least during this time a thousand years ago, there was no such concept as a magic shield.

Since there wasn't, why couldn't she be the one to bring it out?

Although she didn't know who the first person to research and create the magic shield was.

But there was no doubt Lan Qingyou didn't have the patience to 'keep waiting'.

If she wanted intelligence, especially intelligence regarding equal souls, then she must have a certain amount of speaking weight.

Although the title of Alchemist was very useful.

But that was all it was.

Compared to things like making potions, magical tools, or even living materials.

As expected, she still needed a more eye-catching explosive point to allow herself to more quickly rise to a position where she could come into contact with high-level intelligence.

And telling this maid these things was the first step of the explosive point she had thought of...
