Chapter 29: The Princess’s Magic (4)
When I asked about potion-crafting spells, Seymour widened his eyes with interest.
“Let me guess—alchemy.”
“Correct. Impressive deduction.”
“Haha, of course. The words ‘enhance’ and ‘crafting’ tipped me off. Surely you weren’t dabbling in black magic.”
He associated enhancement with black magic?
Well, it wasn’t out of the question. You could gain power in exchange for your lifespan and the like.
I didn’t respond immediately, so Seymour narrowed his eyes and pressed again.
“...You weren’t, right?”
“Of course not. No one with that kind of talent could become a royal physician.”
Seymour nodded.
“Crafting spells, huh. What exactly are you curious about? You mentioned potions, didn’t you. What are they?”
“Think of them as supplements that temporarily improve physical condition.”
