I'm also trying to survive today [Western Fantasy]

[Earl Rose is currently troubled by the inability to make a satisfactory perfume, please help him to formulate the most perfect rose perfume. 】

"Making perfume?" Several people looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Benny was born as a commoner, and the people who can team up with him are similar. For commoners, perfume is obviously not a necessity, and there are almost no chances to use it.

Those two sisters who were born as magicians were from a better family, and at most they just bought a bottle for their own use. As for how to do it, they were really blindsided.

"It's over, this task must only be completed by noble freshmen who are proficient in perfumery." The wooden girl said disappointedly.

"Unless..." Everyone turned their gazes to Julian in unison.If anyone in this group could possibly be proficient in this skill, it was Julian.

Julian: ...

He spread his hands: "Do you think I look like I can make perfume?"

"It's over, what should we do..." a soldier said dejectedly.

"Don't be discouraged, the academy will definitely not design unsolvable problems." Benny tried his best to cheer up his companions.

"We won't, but someone will!" Julian smiled and raised his chin towards Earl Rose.

"Him?" The archer froze for a moment: "Isn't he the one who issued the mission? Will he make perfume for us?"

"Look carefully at the task. Our task is to 'help' the earl to formulate perfume. The main body is him, and we are only responsible for helping."

"That's right! That's it! Let me just say, the academy can't bully our commoner students!" The girl from the water department smiled happily.

"Don't let us...you noble traitor!" The wooden girl joked, she performed very badly in the battle just now, and hoped to relax in this way.

"Come on." The water-type girl rolled her eyes in cooperation: "Don't you know about my family, my dad..." Probably the two of them are used to joking, and for a moment they forgot that Julian was still there, and the girl opened her mouth to complain My own father, seeing Julian from the corner of his eye, realized something was wrong, and immediately shut up, pretending to be gentle and virtuous.

The wooden girl was so amused by her inconsistency, her smile trembled wildly, and the archer stared dumbfounded at the person she liked... How does it feel... Vera's painting style is a bit wrong...

At this time, Benny had honestly come to the earl and asked him what help he needed.

The count was dressed in dirty clothes, and he spoke with aristocratic reserve when talking to Benny.

"That's right. Recently, I've noticed that the roses I grow seem to have mutated, and the fragrance is much weaker, so that the perfume I make is also affected. I hope you can find out the reason why the fragrance of the roses has become weaker." , and... it's best to help me re-grow some, I think... this shouldn't be a problem for you." He looked at the wood-type girl meaningfully.

"Ok, I see."

Everyone heard the earl's words, and immediately began to discuss the solution.

Benny and the others felt that they knew nothing about flower planting, so they simply gave up looking for the reason for the fading fragrance. Instead of finding the correct answer among many possibilities, they might as well follow the earl's hint and let the wood girl directly cultivate a few new plants.

"No problem, I'll leave this to me." The girl from the wooden family was very confident.

Propagating plants is her specialty. There are so many roses at the scene, you can just find one and get the seeds and replant it.

Even if the newly planted ones are not up to standard, she can still make some improvements, which will definitely meet the earl's requirements.

The wood-type girl is full of confidence to give birth to plants, and everyone else is helping as much as possible.

Julian was not with them, and he heard what the count said, but he always felt that this task might not be so simple.

Besides, they have wood magicians who can solve the problem smoothly, so what about the other teams?He didn't think the academy would design a level that only some people could complete.

In other words, there must be other ways to complete this task!

The rest of the people circled around the wooden girl, staring nervously at her for giving birth to new roses.Julian came to the earl casually and chatted with him without saying a word.

The topic has always revolved around the production of rose perfume, but after some conversation, Julian was surprised to find that the Earl of Rose...he is actually not very proficient in making perfume.

To be more precise, since he fell in love with rose flowers, he only started to develop how to make rose flower perfume. Although he found a skilled perfumer to teach him, his own level...is really not that good.

"Okay! It's done!" About half an hour later, the girl from the wooden family excitedly ran over, bringing out a pot of roses like a treasure. "See how it looks, does it suit your heart?"

Earl Qiangwei glanced at her, fluttered her nose lightly, and immediately revealed a look of contempt: "This flower is not fragrant enough!"

"What? How is it possible! I obviously think it smells delicious." A soldier scratched his head and said inexplicably.

"What do you know! The perfume I want to make must have the strongest fragrance, how can such a weak smell be worthy of my making." Count Rose rolled his eyelids and ignored them.

Benny and the others had no choice but to go back and continue to give birth to new roses.

After they left, Julian gradually focused the conversation between the two of them on the problems that occurred during the Earl's preparation process without any trace. Although he didn't know perfume, he knew how to refine medicine. Many aspects made sense.

I learned from the earl that he had found the most suitable roses, which were grown in his greenhouse, and the perfume he made at the beginning was also very charming, but then somehow, the perfume he made The taste is getting weaker and lacking that strong feeling.

He felt that this perfume could not represent his passionate feelings, so he was very dissatisfied.

Oh yes, his original intention of making perfume is to show his love to his lover. It is said that rose flower perfume is his favorite, and the other party promised to marry Earl Rose as long as he can make the best rose perfume.

From planting roses to blending perfumes, Earl Rose has not gone out for three full months. He only wanted to research the perfume, but who would have thought that the effect of the finished product would be getting worse and worse, which made him feel depressed.

"You said...you haven't gone out for three months?" Julian couldn't help but twitch when he heard this.

"Yeah, I want to make a perfume as soon as possible, my lover is still waiting for me." Earl Qiangwei said in a dejected tone at the end, obviously thinking of the failed products on his table.

Julian glanced at his test bench. There were a lot of bottles and jars on it. On the small shelf on the right were several finger-sized crystal bottles filled with amber liquid.

"Can I...?" He pointed to the crystal bottle.

"Go...they are all failures with no fragrance." The count motioned him casually.

Julian took one of the bottles and opened it, and a thick, almost suffocating aroma burst out all of a sudden.

Julian: ...

You call it no fragrance?

"Are you still not satisfied with this scent?" Julian was shocked, it was almost as fast as a gas bomb, and he even suspected that this thing could be thrown out and used as a chemical weapon.

...?

The earl had a question mark in his head, and he leaned over to smell it, his eyes protruding from the hair were full of suspicion: "Is it fragrant?"

"Of course, all..." Julian felt that he had caught something in the middle of his words, and was about to think about it carefully when he heard Benny and the others came back again, holding a pot of roses that were blooming in their hands.

"No! It's not fragrant enough!" The earl gave the answer with a glance.

Benny and the others froze immediately, and the wooden girl was even more unhappy and said, "That's not okay, either?"

The earl gave an answer with a cold snort, and the group of them had no choice but to go back to continue their research in despair.

Before leaving, Benny said shyly, "Actually, I also think this flower is not as good as the one just now."

"Would it be?" The wood-type girl tilted her head in doubt, smelled the flowers again, and said in confusion, "I really think this smells better than the one just now? It's strange..."

Suddenly, there seemed to be a flash of lightning in Julian's mind, and he figured out the key point of the matter at once, and suddenly felt dumbfounded.

Looking at the group of teenagers who were still scratching their heads and racking their brains to grow more fragrant roses, Julian couldn't help but want to roll his eyes at the professors in the academy.

Is it really okay to tease the poor freshman like this?

It is obviously a very simple answer, but it still wants to go around in circles to dig holes for others.

He even suspected that if a team without wood magicians came in, the earl would definitely come up with other ways to torment people.

"Ahem!" He coughed twice to attract the attention of several other people. Seeing them looking over, he smiled and said, "In my hometown, there is an old saying called 'Jiuju Baosi does not smell its stink', which means that when selling abalone If you stay near the stall for a long time, you won’t be able to smell the abalone.”

The young boys on the opposite side were full of question marks.

Benny asked very sincerely: "What is abalone?"

Julian twitched the corners of his mouth, almost forgetting the cultural differences between the two worlds, so he had to give a more direct reminder: "There is also the first half of this sentence, which is called 'Jiuju Lanshi does not smell its fragrance', which means that when you are driving If you stay in the orchid room for a long time, you won't be able to smell the fragrance of orchids."

The young boys were still dumbfounded and couldn't react, but the wood magician girl was more sensitive to this, her eyes lit up, she looked around, and found that the windows on both sides of the greenhouse could be opened... Although It doesn't fit the setting of the castle interior, but—whatever!

"I understand!" The wood magician girl yelled.

She quickly ran to the windows and opened every window. The moment the warm wind brought fresh air into the room, everyone understood.

"Huh? What are you doing? How can you open the window? The fragrance isn't strong enough..." Earl Qiangwei said unhappily. Before he could close the window, the wooden girl had already poked it with an open perfume bottle. under his nose.

"You...I'll go! What the hell are you doing! What the hell is this!" Earl Qiangwei backed away from the smoke, his expression shocked, as if he couldn't believe that he thought the fragrance wasn't strong enough before.

The others couldn't help but twitch their mouths, it really is!

"Take it away, take it away! Take it away!" The earl pushed away the wooden girl's hand in disgust, ran to the window and waited for a while, and then said to them reservedly: "Thank you for helping me find out the problem. If I go to my lover with something like this, I will definitely be punished by kneeling on the washboard."

Crowd: ...

"In order to thank you, I decided to give you a few more bottles of perfume, so you don't have to get too excited." After finishing speaking, he threw all the 'failed products' to them as if throwing trash, and then hurriedly sent them all away. go out.

After everyone left, the earl let out a sigh of relief, lifted his messy hair, and revealed a handsome face that was either angry or happy.

Owen Diary:

It was not very happy to see Julian having a good conversation with that earl.Fortunately, that guy is also an owner.

Wait...he made perfume for his lover?

Oops...it feels more romantic than I actually lost...
