…… It's finally done.

Vatore took a deep breath: "It's okay, I caught up." ”

Her dark red pupils shone with an unsettling, slightly burning ash glow, and her face was full of exhaustion that could not be concealed.

However, she couldn't help but laugh.

The laughter was full of self-satisfaction.

"As I deserve, this level of demanding requirements can be successfully accomplished."

Of course, she did not tell Annan that what he was asking for was actually very difficult.

Of course, it is not difficult to reduce strength and agility, but the difficulty lies in "appropriately reducing strength and agility" while strengthening the will. It is necessary to express the medicinal properties and make it react less strongly. Then the potion can only be made by repeatedly canceling each other out of the side effects.

And the medicine that helped Annan save his life was even more important.

How powerful a potion could it be for him to survive in front of an enemy of that level?

Salvatore didn't know.

His shadow doesn't know either.

- There is only one thing that can be known and done, and that is to do the best you can.

Craft the strongest potion you can make.

This is a war that belongs to the "Salvatore".

For the first time, Salvatore and his shadow reached a certain consensus - they stood on the same side and tried their best to accomplish a goal.

Many potions are not difficult for an alchemist. The difficulty lies in the quantity - without batch conversion equipment, it is difficult to make so many potions in a short period of time.

Because it takes a lot of time to make the transformation product.

Even the "Vatore" senpai can only operate up to six stoves at the same time...... It was only with Salvatore's own assistance that she was able to reluctantly refine all of these things.

No time was lost.

The horizon is already a little cloudy......

She immediately picked up the potion and left the basement.

The place where these potions are refined is not far from Annan. After all, they are all in Earl Geraint's house, and the difference is only between the backyard and the basement.

However, when she was about to get to the place.

Suddenly, his pace slowed down.

…… What's going on?

I saw Count Geraint's backyard, like an ice vault, flowing everywhere with hazy white smoke. As Salvatore approached, he felt a chill on the surface of his feet, gradually seeping into his bone marrow.

She looked intently and saw that Annan had stepped out of the Tower of Frost.

He stared at the rising sun that had not yet risen.

The white cold air visible to the naked eye was wrapping around him like a vortex with the rhythm of Annan's breathing.

Annan's hair has also turned the same frosty white as Maria's. His ice-blue right eye turned into a vertical pupil, and a thin, soft silver dragon scale grew from his neck near his collarbone.

Sister Vatore, I feel it very clearly...... Annan's threat has been raised by more than one notch.

As Salvatore's instinctive side, her instincts are much more accurate than Sal's.

If she had taken control of this body, it would have been impossible for Annan to kill her, even if it was a profession like an alchemist...... But now it's different.

It's like a young child approaching a sleeping beast.

It's as if the other party has been able to easily take his own life.

It was almost instinctive trembling and fear—

“…… Annan? ”

After a moment's hesitation, the shadow shrank back.

Salvatore opened his unusually tired eyes, rubbed them, and walked towards Annan as if nothing had happened.

The biggest difference between him and Shadow is ...... Salvatore never imagined that Annan would be his enemy. He didn't even have the slightest thought of that.

Therefore, Annan's deterrence is simply not valid in front of him.

“…… Annan? ”

Salvatore said tiredly, "I'm done here...... Ahem......"

As he spoke, he realized that he hadn't drunk or eaten for thirteen or fourteen hours. Not only is his throat dry and hoarse, but he is even a little dizzy...... His body was covered in sweat, and his limbs were a little weak.

"Thank you for your hard work, senior."

Annan nodded, and the ice-blue vertical pupils gradually changed into human round pupils.

But the fine scales that appeared on his skin did not disappear.

Because after he completed the Winter Rest Ritual, Annan unconsciously completed a task he had received before:

[Completed: Old Bloodline Path]

[Talent "Heart of Winter" has evolved】

["Heart of Winter" (Reversal) has evolved to the next stage: Winter's Abundance (Reversal)]

[Winter Abundance (Reversal): You will not feel all negative emotions; The damage of the "Frost" element you emit will be permanently increased by 50%; You will be completely immune to all Frost elemental damage below the Truth level.

[After all classes are upgraded to the Gold Tier, Winter Harvest (Reversal) will evolve to the next stage: Winter Blood (Reversal)]

[Winter's Blood (Reversed): You will not feel all negative emotions; The damage of the "Frost" element you emit will be permanently increased by 100%; You will be completely immune to all Frost elemental damage below the Truth level.

[After awakening the blood of winter, you will recall the form deep in your bloodline]

Compared to the Heart of Winter, it's so much stronger.

The reversal of the abundance of winter also made Annan less easy to hurt himself.

Sir Silver's increased resistance to Annan's ability to instantaneously die;

Benjamin's Stone of the Philosopher, which he gave to Annan through his seniors;

the blessings of the old grandmother and the mystery of the creation of the "cold winter";

The Silent Lady gave to Annan, engraved with the inverted inscription of the abundance of winter;

Mr. Yao's personal blessing of "Winter Chill".

And...... A lot of potions from the seniors.

…… I felt it.

Although the mood was very calm and serious, the corners of Annan's mouth still rose slightly.

I feel that I am indeed loved.

To be watched, to be blessed, to be looked forward to.

Maybe someone will be stressed......

But Annan only loves this feeling-

Annan took the kit of medicine handed by Salvatore.

Without hesitation, he raised his head and drank all the bottles he knew.

Only in the two bottles of potion that he had never seen before, he paused slightly.

…… Because Annan never thought that Salvatore would be able to do it to this extent
