Chapter 91 - I'll marry you off

Aldebar studied his brother's and Finland's face alternatingly, then sighed, "Alright. Then I will start working on the potion for Finland so that she can become part of our people."

Caspar shook his head, "No need to hurry, Finland hasn't decided to live forever like us. I'm still waiting for her to change her mind. I am sure that once our children are born, she will want to live forever so that she can watch them live their lives in this world."

"Is that true?" Aldebar asked Finland. The girl nodded.

"This is a big decision. I don't know if I want it. But I do know that I want to marry Caspar."

"Uhmm... okay." Aldebar shrugged, "I'll make one for you anyway, in case you suddenly change your mind. After my 200th birthday tomorrow I want to sleep for ten years."

"What...?" Finland didn't understand. She turned to Caspar and then to Aldebar. "What do you mean by sleeping for ten years?"

"My brother loves doing research. He is one of the few remaining Alchemist scientists. He inherited the talent of our grandfather. For the past fifty years he has been researching whether we can truly live eternally and cannot be killed by bullets or fire," said Caspar, "Since the death of our parents during the war, Aldebar is trying to make a potion that will make us immune from all external attacks. Hopefully bullets, fire and sharp weapons can no longer kill us."

"Wow... does the research bring results?" Finland asked curiously.

These perfect humans could be more perfect? Whoaaa....

"This will be a very long research," Aldebar said. "The last research I conducted showed that I slept for one year without eating nor drinking, my body will still regenerate my cells. So, I will not die after sleeping for a full year. Now, my next target is to sleep for ten years..."

Finland knew that for Alchemists, time was in their hands, and they could do whatever they want without having to think about time. She was amazed that Aldebar was very serious about his work.

"My target is to finish my research and make a better lasting medicine before I have my 300th birthday."

"You're amazing..." said Finland.

"Thank you." Aldebar stretched his arms and hugged Caspar and Finland alternately, "If you are sure, then I am also happy for you. Once Louis and Flora comes, I'll marry you off."

When Flora and her husband Louis arrived, Finland and Caspar were still in the library with Aldebar, discussing the details of their wedding. As the clan leader, Caspar usually married the members of their clan, but because he was now the one getting married, Aldebar would take on the role.

Flora was a very beautiful woman and her face looked very much like her siblings. Just like Aldebar, she had golden hair, but her eyes were green. It reminded Finland of Jadeith's eyes, Flora's son, which was also green. Among her two brothers, she looked the youngest, even though she was actually 150 years older than Aldebar.

Her husband, Louis, looked older compared to all of them; he looked like someone who was in his forties. However, he was still handsome, and his calm appearance made him look the most mature of them all, even though Caspar was actually the oldest.

"Is this my future sister-in-law?" Flora asked as she entered the library room. Her face looked very happy. She walked towards Finland and hugged her warmly. "I'm very happy to meet you."

Finland returned Flora's hug. She didn't expect Caspar's family to accept her so easily. Aldebar and Flora were kind to her and seemed to like her a lot.

Suddenly she felt touched because she felt like finally she had a new family. All this time she had always been alone. She only had one friend and family, namely Jean, and now she would soon have a husband and an extended family.

She was also sad because Jean could not be here to share her happiness with her.

Caspar, who saw the sad expression on her face, immediately understood what was on her mind.

"You'll see Jean in two weeks. Don't be sad..."

"Who is Jean?" Flora asked, "Your family member?"

Finland nodded. Flora then understood a little what Finland felt. Louis, her husband, also had to leave his family after he took the immortality potion and lived with Flora. They had to safeguard the secret about the Alchemists closely.

"You girls had better go to the room and prepare the bride. Aldebar and I will prepare Caspar," Louis said afterward.

Flora nodded. She grabbed Finland's hand and pulled her out of the library. "Let me help you with your dress."

Finland just remembered her beautiful wedding dress. She hadn't had a chance to wear it. She waved to Caspar enthusiastically, "See you later tonight."

Caspar blew a kiss at her and nodded. "I cannot wait."
