Chapter 71

After dinner, Logan and Amelia continued to enjoy their tea time in the dining room.

A faintly sweet aroma wafted from their teacups.

"…Delicious."

Amelia took a sip from her cup and let out a sigh of relief.

Her ruby-red eyes softened, and her expression exuded satisfaction.

The gentleness of the tea leaves as they passed over her tongue, followed by the rich aroma, calmed her heart.

On the other hand, Logan sipped his tea quietly, maintaining the dignity of a nobleman.

He slowly lifted his cup and sipped the tea without making a sound, a scene that could be painted.

They were quite a contrasting pair.

"You've really taken to drinking tea, haven't you?"

Amelia suddenly said this.

On the day she first stepped into this mansion, Logan was drinking coffee.

Now, it had changed to tea.

"It's Amelia's influence."

Logan said.

This indicated that as the time they spent together increased, they gradually influenced each other.

"Didn't you originally like coffee?"

"I don't particularly like the taste, but during busy periods, I used to drink coffee. It seemed to make my mind and eyes sharper."

"Oh, that's the effect of caffeine."

"Caffeine?"

Amelia put down her cup and replied to Logan, who seemed to be hearing the term for the first time.

"Yes. It's a component found in large amounts in coffee. When you drink it, it helps maintain concentration and suppress drowsiness. It's also found in tea, though not as much as in coffee."

"You know a lot about it…"

Logan nodded in admiration at Amelia's smooth recitation of the technical knowledge.

"I was just bored in the annex… I ended up picking up useless knowledge while reading books in my free time…"

"I don't think it's useless."

Logan interrupted Amelia's self-deprecating words.

Amelia quietly caught her breath at Logan's serious gaze.

"Amelia… don't you think you could use that knowledge for something?"

Amelia blinked at Logan's question.

"Um… use knowledge… what do you mean…?"

"Sorry, I was a bit vague. To put it simply, I'm asking if you would consider using your alchemy skills and knowledge of plants… to contribute to the medical field in this country."

"Th-the country…!?"

The sudden broadening of the scope startled Amelia.

"Interesting!" "I want to know what happens next!" If you think so, I would be very encouraged if you could bookmark this or give it a rating with the stars below.
