Chapter 829 Youth and Love

Egypt, Cairo, Ouroboros Bar.

In just one day, Valeria's good mood of coming to Egypt for vacation was completely evaporated by the scorching sun outside.

All right.

In fact, Valeria accompanied her good friend Catherine to attend the International Alchemy Conference, and by the way came to Egypt for vacation.

As early as three days ago, they arrived in Egypt.

When they first arrived in Cairo, they went to visit the tourist attractions here, and then, the two never left the Ouroboros bar where they stayed.

"I hate Egypt and this **** weather."

Valeria drank the red drink in the cup, looked sideways at the scorching sun outside the window, and complained to the female companion beside her, "Staying in this ghostly place for a long time is not good for the skin."

"Then why do you still insist on coming? Wouldn't it be good to stay and look at the store?" Catherine said slowly, flipping through the free "Finks Daily" provided by the bar, without raising her head.

"The United States is even more uncomfortable. There are so many rules and regulations that I can hardly breathe." Valeria is not interested in the atmosphere of the American magic world. She patted her chest lightly with her hands, as if to allow herself to catch her breath, then she glared at her friend and complained: "Besides, you ran out to play by yourself, how dare you leave me to work in the store?"

"Don't all the profits earned during this period belong to you?"

Valeria poked the ice cubes in the glass with a straw, and said confidently, "What do I need the money for? Wouldn't it be more comfortable to find a rich man to support me?"

"Then what did you just refuse Cameron last time? Isn't that guy very rich?" Catherine asked back.

"I'm not a fool. The guy named Cameron knew it was not a good thing at a glance. Besides, he was chasing you in the first place, but he ended up chasing me after getting frustrated with you. When Valeria heard Catherine talking about the wizard Cameron who pursued her a while ago, she became very angry.

Cameron is indeed quite handsome. He is in the same class as Catherine, and his family is also very rich, but what makes Valeria very unhappy is that the guy always looks at them with lewd eyes, and is pursuing Catherine ran to pursue her after she failed.

What do you think of her, the spare tire of the car?

What annoyed Valeria the most was that Cameron was completely dishonest and just wanted to find a beautiful woman for fun.

Doesn't he know that youth is a woman's most precious asset?

"Actually, being single is fine."

Catherine knew that Valeria still wanted to find a good home for herself before she was twenty-five.

The beauty shop of the two is very famous in the United States now. After all, there are two beauties in the shop, and the effect of the beauty potion is also very good, which is widely favored by witches.

After having money, Valeria has become more selective in picking boyfriends, and she has rejected all the men who have come to talk to her so far.

In fact, half of this is Albert's fault. He raised the eyes of the two of them and made a lot of money because of the beauty treatment. Both of them are living comfortably now, and they are no longer in such a hurry to find a boyfriend. up.

"You really don't want one?" Valeria couldn't understand Catherine's thoughts.

"It's hard to find a suitable one. It's barely enough. It's not as comfortable as being alone."

"Isn't there another good candidate?" Valeria stared at Catherine. She felt that her friend had a good impression of Albert.

It is not a strange thing to change from friends to lovers.

Sometimes friends who have a good relationship can go to bed to chat, and they will be together afterwards.

"So, that's why you came up with Anderson's idea?" Catherine knew why Valeria came to Egypt with her, "Be careful that Isobel breaks ties with you."

"I didn't say rob her boyfriend." Valeria curled her lips and said, "Besides, aren't they married yet?"

"They're engaged," Catherine reminded.

"If you don't get married, you have a chance. Besides, didn't you also say that Albert might be able to brew a real beauty potion," Valeria took the half-drinked drink from Catherine and continued to drink, "The two of us Someone has to make a sacrifice, otherwise one day Albert really succeeds, and he will definitely hide it from us."

"Don't think about it, Isobel will also come to Egypt together, you have no chance." Catherine also had to admit that what Valeria said made sense.

Who would share valuable research results with strangers who have nothing to do with it?

"Isn't Isobel writing a book?" Valeria asked puzzled: "Having said that, I remember she said that she wanted to inherit her father's dream and continue to study magic after graduation?"

"People are always changing, and what do you think she and Albert came to Egypt for?" Catherine put down the newspaper and looked at her friend, and said angrily, "It's just to prevent you from taking advantage of her absence. Sleeping with her man. I dare say those photos you sent last time must have aroused Isobel's vigilance."

"Shouldn't it be the report from Spain that caused Isobel's vigilance?" Valeria thought it should be the fault of the Spanish female singer.

“No woman is big enough to let her boyfriend hang out with other pretty women.”

"Why don't I go and tell her directly, Isobel must know my little thoughts, she is very good at instigating thoughts." Valeria thinks that she can talk to Isobel, as long as she doesn't rob him boyfriend, the conflict between the two parties is not irreconcilable. After all, men are all lustful, especially good men who don't lack women, since a lover suddenly appears outside one day, it's better to keep it under their noses, and they can open a beauty shop together at that time.

"If you dare to tell Isobel, you probably don't even have to be friends." Catherine snorted softly. She felt that Valeria was whimsical, and this guy wanted to go to England to join Isobel. She actually knew that life in the United States made Valeria feel very unfree.

In fact, most foreign wizards hate the American wizarding atmosphere.

"Here they come."

Valeria waved towards the door, and saw the young men and women who had just entered the bar coming this way.

"Why are you here now?"

"When exchanging gold coins at the goblin, I encountered a little trouble." Isobel pulled out a chair and sat down opposite Catherine.

Albert put the suitcase at Isobel's feet, then went to the bar to find the bartender to register for the room, and ordered a few iced drinks with the gold coins he had just exchanged.

The waiter quickly delivered the drink with a plate, and Albert got his room key. Their room was booked by Nicholas who came in advance.

"The weather here is too hot. If you want to go out for a walk, wait until night." Albert sat down next to Isobel, took a big sip of the ice drink, and felt a bit like the sour plum soup from his previous life, refreshing and refreshing.

"Let's go together again tonight." Valeria nodded in agreement. She ate a small bite of ice cream and asked Albert with a smile, "This time you came to participate in the International Alchemy Conference, do you still want to make a pioneering contribution?" Gold award back?"

Although Valeria's words sound like a joke.

However, this is not impossible. Catherine said that Albert is very good at alchemy.

"Where's Catherine?" Albert didn't answer, but asked instead, "Are you here to compete, or..."

"I just came here with Grandpa Nicholas to learn more, maybe I can find some inspiration here." Catherine secretly looked at the rosy-cheeked Isobel, but was surprised to find that Isobel didn't have any makeup on, but was more beautiful than the last time we met. more beautiful. Originally, many eyes in the bar secretly looked at them, but a small part moved to Isobel. "

She was suddenly a little jealous, Albert must have really researched a more effective beauty potion for Isobel to use.

"What about you, are you really going to win another gold medal?" Catherine asked back.

"Naturally, we have to work hard, and it doesn't matter if we win or not." Although Albert said this, anyone who knows him knows that this is a polite remark: it means that the most important thing is participation.

However, every time Albert said this, he would take away the championship before leaving, making those players who participated in the competition with him grit their teeth.

"This is the result of my research." Catherine said as she took out a box. After opening it, there was a medicine bottle inside, which contained a light gray liquid.

"Plant extract?" Albert guessed what was in the medicine.

"Yes." Catherine nodded and asked, "What is your achievement?"

"I have achieved some results in the research of mandrakes." Albert took out a palm-sized box, opened it and took out a bottle of... wine?

The glass bottle does look like a wine bottle.

"Is this potion?" Both of them were a little uncertain, because they had never seen potion in a wine bottle. "

"This is Mandrake wine." Albert introduced to the two with a smile, "I call it youth and love."

"Can mandrakes also be used to make wine?"

Catherine and Valeria looked at each other, and they both felt that they had really gained knowledge. They didn't expect that mandrakes could actually make wine. Moreover, they all guessed that the thing in front of them must have some special effect, otherwise, taking a strange bottle of wine to participate in the competition would definitely become a laughing stock, and Albert obviously would not joke about his reputation.

"Yes, but it's troublesome. This is a kind of magic wine, which has some special effects and tastes very good." Albert said meaningfully, "After drinking it, the body will feel the vitality of youth and the beauty of love. So I call it Youth and Love."

"Can I have a taste?" Valeria asked.

"Let's talk about it after you find someone you like!" Isobel helped Aite reject it. She had drank this stuff and naturally knew its effect.

The weird wine name "Youth and Love" was given by the two together.

"Are there any other achievements?" Catherine asked. To be honest, it is still a bit unreliable to use the so-called "magic wine" to participate in the International Alchemy Congress.

"This can be regarded as my research result." Albert took out another flat container, which contained the improved flight ointment after upgrading to level 3.

Without waiting for anyone else to speak, he dipped some flying ointment on the glass after drinking, and the glass floated unsteadily, as if someone had secretly cast a floating spell on it.

Catherine also dabbed on the newspaper, and found that the newspaper also floated.

"It's incredible," Valeria murmured.

"This thing is also made of Mandrake?" Although Catherine couldn't think of the use of this thing for the time being, she couldn't help but sympathize with Albert's opponent.

"Is this ointment a product of alchemy?" A handsome young wizard walked towards them, curiously looking at the cup and newspaper floating in mid-air, and his eyes fell on the oil that Albert had painted on the cup On the ointment, he smiled and said to Albert, "I think you should also come to the International Alchemy Conference! My name is Aria, nice to meet you."

"Albert."

Albert reached out to shake hands with the other party.

"Are you guys sharing your alchemy achievements? Can I join you?" Aria stared at the several alchemy works on the table, and introduced herself politely, "I also have good experience in alchemy. To be honest , I haven’t met my young counterparts for a long time.”

"Sorry, our table is already full." Catherine said calmly, "There are already reservations for the two places next to me."

After finishing speaking, she ignored the handsome young man, looked directly at Albert and asked, "Where is my grandpa?"

"They met acquaintances on the road, and they are probably still chatting, and they should be here in a while." Albert smiled apologetically at Aria, whose cheeks were slightly stiff.

"Sorry, I interrupted, let's talk at the exchange meeting tomorrow!" Aria politely smiled back at Albert, turned and walked away.

"That guy's intentions are really obvious." Catherine curled her lips in disdain.

The other party seems to have come to exchange alchemy with Albert, but Catherine is very clear that the guy started to observe them secretly a few days ago. Do you really think she doesn't know?

"After all, there are three beauties here. Mr. Ariya is still so handsome, and he will definitely want to pursue you." It is naturally not difficult for Albert to guess the purpose of the young man who came uninvited.

It's normal to meet beautiful women in bars.

"What if he asks your Isobel?" Catherine asked.

"I will reject him directly." Isobel said calmly.

"What if he's in hot pursuit?" Valeria pressed.

"I'll take him to the hospital." Albert smiled and narrowed his eyes and said, "However, I don't think I have a chance. Aria is obviously a smart person."

"Smart?" Valeria didn't think that Arya was so smart, and others could see through her intentions at a glance. How could she be called smart?

"Of course, he chatted with me, not with you, because strange girls will be particularly wary of strangers abroad." Albert said calmly, "Even if he is handsome, he will still be vigilant if he comes uninvited. He has ulterior motives, if you become friends first, you can lower your vigilance."

"Well, that guy actually made a bet to get one of you." Isobel said suddenly.

The atmosphere around became a bit weird, Catherine narrowed her eyes and asked, "Are you sure."

"Mr. Aria doesn't know Occlumency." Isobel took a sip of his drink and said flatly, "It's not difficult to know his thoughts."

"When you get married, Albert's life will probably be even harder." Valeria teased.

"Albert is very good at Occlumency, I can't see through his thoughts, and I won't peep into other people's thoughts at will." Isobel said calmly, "Of course, I don't have the habit of sharing my boyfriend with others. "

"Don't say that, I won't rob you, but I can help you watch him." Valeria said it very tactfully, but Albert understood.

What's the matter with this guy, are all Ukrainian girls so open?
