Chapter 1870

Author: Only For You
After their little "session", Henry left the villa.

Eric got dressed and wandered into the kitchen to brew himself a cup of coffee. He took his time, dragging out every movement before finally returning to Andrew.

"You're pretty good-looking… It's just too bad that you're such a blockhead!" Eric said with a smirk as he stared at Andrew's blank face.

'You're the blockhead, you freak! You twisted, fake-ass, genderless mess...' Andrew cursed inwardly.

He wanted to slap Eric so badly, but he held back. He kept his calm while his mind raced, trying to figure out how to get Eric to leave with him willingly.

However, using force would trigger Henry. Once they teamed up again, Andrew could be thrown right back under hypnosis. So for now, he had no choice but to sit still and wait for the right moment.

After sipping his coffee, Eric began another round of hypnosis. He sat directly in front of Andrew, and once again, those hypnotic spirals flickered in his eyes.

    Andrew looked genuinely puzzled. "Why? Aren't you worried that since we already know each other, studying under me might actually be inconvenient?" Luna smiled softly. "I am a little afraid you'll call me stupid. But your alchemy skills are genuinely impressive, so I'm willing to look foolish if it means learning from the best. Besides, there are other reasons too." Andrew's brow furrowed. "What other reasons?" Luna's eyes grew distant as she looked away. "Personal reasons. I'd rather not discuss them with you right now." Andrew chuckled and nodded. "Fair enough. Then let's get started. From this moment on, you're my assistant. Whenever I need medicinal herbs, I expect you to find them immediately." Luna's palms started sweating, and nervousness crept into her voice. "Right now? Already? But my knowledge of rare herbs is still pretty limited. I haven't memorized most of the plant names yet." Andrew's tone was matter-of-fact. "That's your problem to solve. What you haven't m

    Andrew ignored her completely and went back to work. He reopened the cauldron and began cleaning out the residue, then methodically organized the scattered materials around him. Luna's tone softened without her even realizing it. "Alright, I was out of line earlier. Andrew, will you please teach me alchemy? I-I'm begging you." Andrew froze, utterly stunned. "What did you just say? You're begging me? Say that again… I didn't catch it." Luna clenched her teeth. "I said I'm begging you. You heard me this time, right?" Andrew tilted his head. "One more time. Last one, I promise." Expressionless, Luna said, "I'm begging you, Mr. Lloyd, to teach me the art of alchemy. I will be forever grateful." Andrew chuckled with obvious satisfaction. "Well, considering how sincere you're being, I suppose I could… not teach you!" Luna's mind went completely blank for a moment before she shot to her feet in fury. "Andrew, you're crossing the line! Do you really think I won't study under Mr.

    Andrew tossed the three bottles into the air like a juggler, catching them with ease. "It's simple, really. First, storing them separately helps preserve their potency. The higher the quality of the elixir, the more unstable it becomes, and when you mix them, they can react with each other." He paused meaningfully. "It's like young couples in love. If you leave them alone without supervision and let them spend all their time together, well, you know what's going to happen, right?" Andrew gave Luna a playful look, and her lips twitched involuntarily. She found his comment inappropriate. Was he seriously teasing her right now? "So what else?" she asked. Andrew chuckled. "The second reason is about increasing value. When you store a premium elixir by itself, doesn't it seem more prestigious? But if you just throw them all together, the impression isn't nearly as sophisticated. Sure, these bottles are expensive, don't get me wrong. But when I sell them, the elixir is one thing,

    Amari frowned. "Come in? This is my private courtyard. That's probably not appropriate, is it?" Luna bit her lip and pressed forward anyway. "Mr. Goodman, I need to talk to Mr. Lloyd alone. Please, just give me a moment. I apologize for the intrusion." Without waiting for permission, she strode past Amari and headed inside. Amari looked flustered. "General Phelan, wait!" However, Leslie grabbed his arm with a knowing smile. "Mr. Goodman, great to meet you. I've heard you're into fine wine and want to try every good drink out there. We have some excellent stock at the military headquarters. How about we grab a drink?" Amari's eyes lit up immediately. "Are you for real?" Soon, the two were deep in conversation about alcohol, completely forgetting about Andrew. Luna hurried into the courtyard and found Andrew sitting beneath a large tree. In front of him, a brass cauldron was smoking gently, and it looked like it had been burning continuously even while he was out eating.

    Amari could no longer hold back his frustration. "Mikayla, do you have any shame at all? I taught you everything you know about alchemy in the first place. How dare you claim that Theon was the one who taught you?" Mikayla remained perfectly calm and smiled sweetly. "Mr. Goodman, I'm not sure what you're referring to. As I recall, I was actually expelled from your instruction. After I began studying under Mr. Orbem, my alchemy skills progressed remarkably fast. If you're trying to take credit for my growth, I'm afraid I can't agree with that." Amari's chest heaved with renewed anger. This version of Mikayla disgusted him more than ever. How had he not seen through her manipulative nature earlier? Here he was, at his age, being played like a fool by her games. The burning frustration in his chest felt nearly unbearable. Andrew, however, had already returned his full attention to his meal. "Amari, finish eating, and let's head back. This afternoon, we still need to refine thr

    Theon's face darkened. "Andrew, you'd better wise up. Even if your alchemy is superior, I'm hardly lacking in skill myself. General Phelan didn't come here just to learn alchemy. "She'll need to interact with various professionals in the alchemy field and deal with the Divine Alchemists. I would be her guide, the most suitable mentor for her. You, on the other hand, only know how to shut yourself away and craft elixirs; you have nothing else to offer." Andrew curled his lip dismissively. "Alchemy is alchemy. Why complicate it with extras? Theon, that's exactly why your skills are second-rate and your mind is scattered in too many directions." Luna suddenly spoke up with hopeful anticipation. "Mr. Lloyd, would you possibly be willing to teach me alchemy?" Andrew shook his head directly. "I'm afraid not." Everyone at the table was caught off guard by his blunt refusal. Even Theon had not expected this. He actually rejected Luna? She was someone every alchemist would fight to
