Chapter 59: Melina’s Perspective (Part 2)
After Ichiro taught me how to butcher the terror bulls, he said we would be throwing a "barbeque," which, once again, sounded strangely familiar.
He started by cooking a sauce. Making a bunch of ingredients from scrap using magic, then using the smoke to heat the substance.
As I watched him cook, I suffered another of those strange visions where I saw Ichiro as someone else—the tall man with dark hair and a scar on his face.
I kept pondering about it until dinner time, when my mind finally cleared once we all ate the delicious food. The bbq sauce ended up being amazing too, which was surprising.
That night, Ichiro said he would holing himself up in his workshop.
I was curious to see him working on potions, and after taking a bath, the entire group paid him a visit. However, when we arrived, he seemed to be full of energy and into his work and barely paid any attention to the others in the room.
I stayed there for a few hours with his companions, watching him work, but I ended up falling asleep and waking up in my room the following day.
("I guess Vespera must have brought me here...") I thought as I slightly recalled seeing the pretty spider lady carrying me to my bed.
A few days later, Ichiro taught me his teleportation spell, which was a spell I was excited to cast. However, it proved to be the hardest of them all.
He explained to me how it wasn’t possible to travel to a place I had never been before since I couldn’t visualize it in my head. The distance you could travel was also determined by how much magic you could put into the spell.
I managed to teleport a few meters in front of me, but I couldn’t travel all the way to town from the forest like he did. At least not yet, but that didn’t stop me from practicing it every day.
