Gensokyo, a Minecraft template, starting experience from plucking flower fields.

"I'm sorry, you don't need to bother."

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

As soon as Marisa finished speaking, Bai An's face darkened, and his voice became even more serious.

Seeing his unpleasant expression, Marisa felt even more uneasy, not understanding why he had gotten angry so suddenly.

Did she say something wrong? Bai An rarely gets angry, and she doesn't want to see the other person angry.

"sorry."

Marisa pursed her lips, looking somewhat aggrieved, and apologized again.

Bai An frowned slightly, then reached out his hand to Marisa.

Marisa's face was pale.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on her tightly clenched palms. When the other person reached out their hand, she closed her eyes, trembling.

Bai An is usually very good to her. If this can appease Bai An and make him not dislike her, then she can do so.

Marisa would definitely agree.

However, the expected pain did not come. With a sigh, a touch from above her head made Marisa open her eyes.

Bai An was placed very close.

What came into view was a magnified, exquisite face, and from those dark eyes, Marisa could see no disgust towards her.

She looked up in a daze, and the next moment, Bai An grabbed her cheeks and pulled them to both sides.

"Don't say sorry to me anymore, or don't bother me. I consider you and Reimu as family, you know? There's no need to say sorry to friends and family."

Bai An tugged at her cheek, his tone full of disappointment and frustration.

Although Marisa usually appears energetic and carefree, she is not actually like that.

That's not quite right; perhaps it's just something on her mind.

Bai An had seen it from the beginning, and since he had always treated Marisa and Reimu as his younger sisters, he was genuinely furious when Marisa said those words.

Perhaps it was because her face was pinched painfully, or perhaps it was because of the bitterness in her heart.

Marisa's eyes were slightly red and very wet, but she could only grit her teeth and hold on, trying not to let the tears fall.

Upon hearing Bai An's words, Ling Meng paused, her eyes flickered, and ripples of emotion stirred within her. In the end, she simply lowered her gaze and remained silent.

"I won't ask why you're here, nor do I need to. I've come to give you a magic activation potion that I made. After drinking it, you won't need to rely on eating magical mushrooms to increase your magic power."

Bai An sighed.

He took out the magic activation potion he had prepared beforehand from his backpack.

Marisa didn't reach out to take the potion; she kept her head down, her pretty face hidden by her pulled-down black tricorn hat, making it impossible to see her expression.

But there was a faint sobbing sound.

Her trembling body betrayed her current state of mind.

Looking at her like this, Bai An couldn't help but wonder if he had been too fierce just now and scared the little girl.

Just as Bai An was about to go up and say a few words of comfort.

Marisa suddenly threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.

Tears welled up and streamed down her delicate face.

Large tears fell one by one onto Bai An's clothes, becoming slightly warm.

She didn't speak, nor did she know what to say. She could only let her tears flow freely, venting her emotions.

Seeing the scene before her, Reimu's mouth moved as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't say anything.

Marisa doesn't like to cry and always has a smiling face.

If I get caught doing something wrong, it just means I was wrong, but I still have the attitude of daring to do it.

Her motto is "full of energy and optimistic".

Therefore, she doesn't cry, nor is she used to crying.

Sadness and sorrow are rarely seen on her face.

Faced with this sudden situation, Bai An was at a loss for what to do and stood there stiffly, letting Marisa cry.

He could even feel the other person's body trembling slightly.

"Waaah... I'm so sorry, I'm really sorry..."

Marisa apologized haltingly, her voice choked with sobs, her arms tightening around her.

“G――”

With a slight sigh, Bai An grabbed Marisa's delicate little face again, pulling at it as he spoke.

"Didn't I already tell you not to say sorry? But I forgive you this time. Stop crying, or your face will be all messed up. Reimu is already secretly laughing over there."

"Waaah, I... I understand."

Hearing his words, Marisa gradually stopped sobbing, but her eyes were still filled with tears.

Because his face was being pulled, his voice became somewhat muffled.

Gensokyo: Chapter 74 Modifying the Eight Trigrams Furnace, Terakoya

Marisa is naturally cheerful and outgoing.

Even if they are unhappy, they quickly put it out of their minds after it is resolved, and soon they are back to their energetic selves.

The group tacitly pretended that nothing had happened.

"Is this the potion that can activate magic?"

Marisa excitedly took the pink potion handed to her by Bai An, examined it curiously, and then gulped it down in one go.

Suddenly, her eyes widened in surprise.

This medicine is actually sweet.

She smacked her lips, savoring the taste, and her eyes gleamed.

"It's really sweet, and it's strawberry flavored!"

The exclamation drew Reimu's attention, and her eyes lit up when she heard that the potion was actually strawberry-flavored.

"I also want!"

Reimu scurried up to Bai An, raising her hand with her palm facing upwards.

Her peach-pink eyes blinked and stared intently at Bai An.

It looks like a greedy cat begging for food.

"This isn't a drink, and this is the only bottle I brought. You can have this."

Bai An rolled her eyes at her, but still took out a bottle of fruit wine from her backpack.

After dealing with Reimu, he turned to Marisa and said:

"Marisa, give me that fire-breathing furnace you use to unleash magic."

"Huh? A fire-breathing furnace? Or a Bagua furnace?"

"Well, that's it."

Bai An nodded and took the Bagua Furnace handed to him by Marisa. It felt cool and slightly heavy to the touch.

The exterior of the stove is made of wood, while the interior is made of metal.

Just as he had thought, due to the dense fog inside the Magic Forest, the humidity was very high, causing many metal parts of the Eight Trigrams Furnace to rust.

The yin-yang fish pattern on the surface has become mottled and worn.

Under Marisa's curious gaze, Bai An placed an anvil on the ground.

Anvils can be used to repair and enhance items.

With a series of clanging sounds, the Yin-Yang Furnace was completely renewed.

The mottled rust has disappeared, replaced by smooth textures that radiate colorful luster, mysterious and unpredictable.

"Your original Bagua Furnace was almost finished, so I repaired it for you and also increased its durability and power."

Bai An tossed the stove to Marisa, who excitedly picked up the brand-new stove and examined it from all angles.

It's not just about refinishing the surface.

Even the color has been changed to a mysterious light purple, with a layer of silver-gray runes engraved on it.

“I used the same method I use to make a staff to add a layer of runes to yours, so that the flow of magic will be smoother and there will be no loss of magic along the way.”

"Hmm—"

Upon hearing this, Marisa poured a few strands of magical power into the Eight Trigrams Furnace, and the entire furnace immediately glowed with a fiery red light.

The flames inside the furnace were exceptionally bright, at least in Marisa's eyes.

"Wow, this magic power is usually just a tiny ball, but now it's turned into such a big ball and can burn for so long."

Marisa held the Eight Trigrams Furnace with obvious delight, her eyes filled with affection.

Although they knew that Bai An's creations would be extraordinary, they were still deeply impressed after witnessing his skills firsthand.

Amazing!

"That's normal. After all, you lose some magic power when you're running your magic, and your magic power wasn't pure before. These runes can not only help you reduce magic power loss, but also reduce the running time."

Upon hearing Bai An's explanation, Marisa's delicate face was filled with admiration.

God, eternal God!

Looking at Marisa, whose eyes were sparkling, Bai An's lips curled up slightly.

It feels pretty good to be admired like that.

"Alright, I still have to go to the Human Village, so I'll be leaving now. Keep it up, hard work will definitely pay off, I believe you can become the most powerful magician."

Bai An patted Marisa on the shoulder, gave her a few words of encouragement, and then went to the side of Kuro who had been waiting for a long time.
