Chapter 7: The Melancholy of a Game Reincarnator - and the Story That Didn't Go Right from the
Because choosing this course in the early stage has the best cost-effectiveness.
On the one hand, at the end of the semester, you can make your own alchemical potions and sell them to students of the same grade or even higher grades in exchange for a large number of credits.
On the other hand, you can get the hidden props in the game, talent growth potions, potion effect enhancement potions, and lucky potion recipes by building a good relationship with the instructor who teaches this course.
Talent growth potions can randomly increase the puppet's individual attribute talents between 1 and 9.
This will increase the level cap of the puppet.
The potion effect special effect enhancing potion, as the name suggests, is a potion that improves the effect of alchemical drugs.
The lucky potion is for players to use and can temporarily increase the player's luck value.
As long as these three potions are used together, they can increase the puppet's individual talent value by 9 points.
If you want to spawn a puppet that reaches the game's level cap of 499, these three potions are indispensable items.
Although in the game, cultivating the strongest puppet is more of a way for players to satisfy themselves.
But Edward has now been reincarnated into the game world. If he can cultivate the strongest puppet, it means that his life will be smooth sailing.
Maybe, she can also not worry about the world's eyes, and start a harem of beautiful girls like the protagonist...
(Ahem, ahem, what on earth am I thinking about? Now is not the time to be thinking about these things, right? I should hurry up and buy everything I need for school, and then use the remaining money to buy herbal seedlings.)
Edward brought his thoughts back to reality and started buying various items in the shopping street.
After saving in various ways, she finally had 110 credits left.
Apart from keeping 30 credits to cover miscellaneous expenses during the first week of school, she planned to use the remaining 80 credits to buy herbs.
When she arrived at the herbal medicine shop, she happened to see Alfred and Rose walking out of the shop intimately after shopping.
Perhaps it is because he knows that the other party is the final terrorist boss.
Edward was a little scared when he saw Alfred, and subconsciously hid in a corner where they couldn't see him.
But beside Alfred, besides Rose, the official lover of the game, there is another unknown silver-haired beautiful girl - who looks very much like the puppet he summoned in the first place.
(Really? Why am I being hugged by cute girls right from the start?!
He is clearly a melancholy handsome guy in the game who is deeply in love... Why is he a playboy in reality? He really deserves to die! Bastard!)
Adelaide, who was secretly watching the three people from behind the flower bed, bit his sleeve jealously and complained in his heart.
The little wolf cub she had just summoned seemed to feel very lonely when he saw his master like this.
It whimpered from time to time and kept nibbling on Edward's stockings.
Unfortunately, Edward's attention was all on Alfred, who was showing off his love in the street, and he didn't notice the coquettish little wolf cub.
It wasn't until the three figures disappeared that Edward came to his senses.
She calmed the sulky little wolf cub a little and went into the herbal medicine shop to buy what she needed.
"Welcome. Oh, you are a new face. Are you also a new student this year?"
The owner of the herbal medicine shop was Samantha B. Rodda, a fairly famous aristocratic widow.
As soon as Samantha saw Edward, she smiled gently and kindly and started talking to him.
"Yes, yes. Excuse me, Mrs. Samantha, do you sell herbal seedlings here?"
"Medicinal seedlings? This is really interesting. This is the first time I've met a freshman who wants to buy herbal seedlings and grow herbal medicine himself."
Samantha looked at Adelaide with a surprised expression and advised her patiently.
"But herb seedlings are not as easy to grow as you think. If you don't grow them well, not only will you not be able to save credits, you may even lose everything in the end."
"I know that. I've learned to grow these things at home. If it's not something that has to be grown in a greenhouse, I think I should be able to grow it in my dorm."
Adelaide answered confidently.
This confidence does not come out of thin air.
Ever since he regained his memories of his past life, Adelaide has been preparing for school.
She had spent so much effort in the past learning how to grow herbs from the old lady who was in charge of the greenhouse at home.
If it was just some common herbs, Adelaide could easily take care of it by himself.
"I see. So what kind of herbs do you need, little girl?"
"Please give me a pot of Adelmanra, a fine-leaved canary flower, a Romanti..."
Listening to Edward talking about the herb seedlings he wanted and the nutrients needed to grow them, Samantha showed an expression of admiration.
"I didn't expect that you, young girl, know so much about herbal cultivation."
"Because, because when I'm at home, I like to grow some plants."
Adelaide smiled and tried to cover it up.
After all, she couldn't directly tell the other party that she had to undergo special training to acquire these skills just to survive the first and second semesters.
"I see. Please wait a moment..."
Samantha placed the things Edward wanted on the counter in order and calculated the prices.
"It's 1175 credits in total... I guess you can't afford it since you're just starting school, right?"
After calculating the price, she said with a somewhat confused look.
"Eh?!"
(Why is it so expensive? In the game, doesn’t this piece of grass only cost a few seeds?!)
"Little girl, you probably lived at home all the time before, so you don't know much about the market for herbs, right?"
Seeing Edward's shocked expression, Samantha chuckled.
"Yes, yes. In the past, my servants bought these herbal seedlings for me, so I didn't expect them to be so expensive. If you calculate it this way, it's more cost-effective to buy the herbs directly...
But herbs have a time limit for use. If they are left for too long, their efficacy will weaken or even go bad..."
Because the original plan was completely disrupted, Edward was in distress.
"Girl, are you good at growing herbs?"
“Although I can’t say I’m particularly good at it, I’ve been learning planting since I was a child.”
"I see... Then why don't you come and help me after school starts? I'll pay you, and if you buy anything in the store, I'll give you a special discount."
"Eh?"
Hearing Samantha say this, Edward couldn't help but make another silly noise.
