“Barbara, you're really full of surprises. I can't believe an elite of Highwyn is right in front of me! I'm a Lucky man."

Barbara had never realized how enjoyable it could be to receive a man's praise before.

“Well, it looks Like you really like our culture," she said in a sweet voice, blushing.

Barbara was worried that she was letting her guard down too much, but when she saw Octavian smiling from ear to ear like a child, she realized she was worried over nothing.

While she was thinking about this, Octavian asked, "Then Barbara, after you become an official member of the Pill Alchemist Association, can you show me around the place? I've always wanted to see it, but I heard that the Pill Alchemist Association is a sacred place in Highwyn that even people in the ancient martial world can't easily enter."
