Capítulo 54: New Pill Recipe
After a few hours of thinking and collecting his resolve.
Blanc took a deep breath and headed towards the training field.
At the training field, Blanc saw Helena from afar.
He couldn't bring himself to bring the sad news to her, especially after seeing her so happy.
To her, although she didn't know what Leif's mission was, as long as he was back alive, then she was happy.
If Blanc told her right now that her father is dead, it would surely ruin her mood.
Blanc decided to wait until the warriors finished their training before telling her.
Unfortunately for him, he can't keep running away from this matter anymore as Helena saw him loitering around the training field area.
"Blanc! How come you're here? Did you miss me?"
Helena said playfully.
Blanc can't reciprocate her positivity though.
"Blanc? Is something wrong?"
Sensing that something was wrong, she tried to ask Blanc if he had a problem.
"Helena…Can we talk inside my hut?"
"Sure!"
Inside Blanc's hut.
Blanc urged Helena to sit on the bed and said
"Helena…There's something I need to tell you. Leif's mission was actually to gather information regarding your father, Count Laurelei."
Helena's eyes constricted into vertical slits after hearing about Leif's mission.
"I see, so what happened?"
Helena knew that something was wrong since Leif returned in such a miserable condition.
"He was only supposed to gather information. Unfortunately, when he was sneaking around the old manor, he saw your father together with Duke Samara."
"The fat Duke apparently lost his last bits of patience since the Count is very resolute about hiding secrets from him."
"As the Duke was about to kill the Count, Leif was forced to take action in order to save your father."
"They thought that they had successfully escaped. The count led the way in order to retrieve the high-tier cavalry formation manual."
"Who would've thought that they were secretly being followed by Duke Samara's men? After they retrieved the manual, they were attacked in all directions."
"Leif managed to barely escape. As for the count…"
Helena clenched her fists tightly after hearing what happened. She knew that her father had truly died this time.
Tears welled up in her eyes and she was gritting her teeth so hard.
This is all her fault! If only she didn't prioritize her own training. If only she made a bit more effort to save her father first.
Blanc knew that Helena would regret it if the Count died so he gave the mission to Leif. Unfortunately, they still failed.
He can only comfort Helena for now.
"Blanc…Can you inform Alex to be the temporary drill master for a few days? I'm returning to my hut to rest."
"Okay…I'll inform Alex. I'm always here in case you need me."
"Thanks Blanc. Also, please don't tell Adelaine about this. She always knew that father had been long gone. There's no need to make her go through the pain again."
"I understand…Take care of yourself Helena. Remember, we need to live on for the count."
Helena didn't say anything after hearing Blanc's words.
She just walked back to her hut with a blank look on her face.
Although Blanc is incredibly worried, he knows that he should give some space to Helena. Heartaches like these can only be resolved over time.
The pain of losing a loved one will not be resolved in any other way.
With a heavy heart, Blanc proceeded towards the training field.
He relayed Helena's instructions to Alex and then he went back to his office and forced himself to work.
Today was the day that time flowed the slowest for Blanc.
He wanted to get off work. He wanted to just grieve inside his hut.
However, he knew that every wasted day might result in their town getting wiped out.
He couldn't rest for now even if he wanted to. There was so much to do.
He had to bear this burden for his loved ones and those who trusted him.
A few hours later, he was finally off work.
He immediately went to his private workshop to research the troll hearts.
Blanc learned from Helena that the trolls had strong regeneration abilities. In addition, Helena also said that she got a skill from the Yeti prime meat.
Perhaps, if he studies this troll's heart. His studies might yield results that no one has ever seen before.
From then on, Blanc spent most of his free time studying the troll heart.
Every day, he checks on Helena before and after his work.
Doing the same routine every day, one week quickly passed.
He finally finished the recipe for a pill last night which makes use of the troll heart as the main ingredient.
Blanc washed his face and prepared to go to work.
A few moments later, he left his hut and checked on Helena's hut as part of his routine.
To his surprise, Helena's hut was empty.
He didn't go through his usual walking routine and instead, he went to the training field to check.
Upon reaching the training field, he didn't even need to look to check.
He heard Helena's voice even before he reached the training field.
Seeing that she seems to be doing okay now, Blanc happily headed towards the alchemist workshop
*Knock* *Knock*
"Albert? Are you there?"
"Ahh! Mayor! Welcome, please do come in."
Blanc looked at the five advanced alchemists, they were looking crazier and crazier every time he visited the alchemist workshop.
Still, he was proud.
These five didn't let him down. They were studying alchemy every day like madmen.
"Albert, please check this."
"Hmm? Is this a new pill recipe?"
"Yes, the main ingredient for this is the heart of trolls."
"Hmm?! Heart of trolls?! Fascinating…"
"Please give me three days. We will do our best to verify if this theoretical recipe that you provided is feasible."
"Thanks. I leave it to you guys."
Blanc can finally rest a bit. He has been busy developing this theoretical recipe.
He couldn't delay this matter since this might give birth to a new unique army unit.
