The losers in daily youth have all become witches

Chihaya Asagumo sat gracefully on the sofa, looking past Li Mo at the pink-haired girl following behind Li Mo, and asked in a polite tone that was impeccable.

"My name is Chihaya Aine, and I'm a new student who just transferred to Sobu High School..."

Chihaya Aine looked at the gentle and generous girl in front of her and asked curiously: "Excuse me, who are you..."

"My name is Chihaya Asagumo, and I'm a second-year student."

Asagumo Chihaya smiled gently.

"Ah, that's you, Senpai! Not only a Senpai from Sobu High School, but also Chihaya-senpai." Aine, whose name also had the character "Chihaya" in it, understood and said, "But to avoid confusion, I'll just call you Asagumo-senpai..."

Asagumo Chihaya showed a gentle expression that said, "As long as you're happy, I don't care."

This made Chihaya Aine even more excited: "Is Asagumo-senpai also a member of this Magic Club? So, you must know magic too, right?"

Compared to the slightly malicious Li Mo, Chihaya Aine felt that Chihaya Asagumo, a female senior who looked quite gentle and had a Yamato Nadeshiko vibe, was more trustworthy, and couldn't help but ask.

"Unfortunately, my magic is temporarily unusable due to some reasons. Although I have a place here, I am not much different from an ordinary person."

Chihaya Asagumo responded with a sweet smile.

Although it was just a brief exchange of a few words, Chihaya Asagumo already roughly understood Chihaya Aine's current situation.

The other party should have encountered some supernatural events like the Wenshui brothers and sisters before, so he was brought here by Li Mo.

Compared to the permanent members, this guy, who is at most like Wenshuimei and only shows up once every two weeks, does not pose any substantial threat.

So Chihaya Asagumo became more friendly towards the pink-haired girl.

"That's it..."

After receiving the answer, Chihaya Aine couldn't help but feel disappointed.

Li Mo, on the other hand, had already gone to stir the big vat.

"Chihaya..."

At this point he suddenly realized there were two Chihayas in the room. He paused for a moment, then changed the subject: "Asagi, was there any special change in the potion just now?"

After finally progressing to calling names, they were now back to calling surnames for some inexplicable reason. The smile on Asagumo Chihaya's face remained unchanged, but Chihaya Aine beside her felt an inexplicable pressure...

The girl was amazed: Could it be that magic can even change gravity? It's so magical!

"No, it seems stable from the beginning."

Chihaya Asagumo took a deep breath and replied in a tone that didn't change at all.

"I see. It seems this is the closest we've ever been to success."

Li Mo couldn't help but get excited.

He carefully injected magic power into the huge spoon that stirred the vat, exploring it bit by bit, changing the properties of the various ingredients in the potion.

Just as speculated at the beginning, the reason why people in this world have not discovered such a magical medicine as Baixian Essence is because this world itself does not seem to exist - at least for a long time, such a wonderful energy as magic has not existed.

Without magic, even the same plant would exhibit completely different characteristics.

The most obvious and basic material is Mandrake.

In reality, mandrake is just an ordinary plant with tuberous roots. It may have some unique pharmacological features, but that is at most the level of an ordinary herb. In traditional Chinese medicine, at most, it is described as bitter and cold in nature.

However, when this plant absorbs magical power during its growth, it will undergo a huge change: the original tuberous root will directly grow into an appearance similar to a wrinkled baby. If it is not handled properly when pulled out of the ground, the crying and screaming sounds of the baby-like tuberous root can cause great damage to the human brain, and in severe cases it can even be fatal!

Although Li Mo has not yet been able to fully understand the impact of magic on most things, ordinary things will not necessarily develop in a good direction when exposed to magic. Many things will directly deteriorate or even become dangerous due to the erosion of magic.

However, potions like Dittany Essence, which have clear records of ingredients, are different. At least all the ingredients recorded in them can produce positive changes with magic power.

Although studying these changes and determining the optimal scenario took Li Mo a considerable amount of time and money, it wasn't all for naught! The experiences he'd gained during this time would serve as valuable experience, laying a solid foundation for his future studies in potions and alchemy. He knew that if he ever got a new potion recipe and brewed it from scratch again, it wouldn't be as time-consuming and laborious as it was this time.

"Hey, is this pot glowing?"

Chihaya Aine's surprised voice brought Li Mo back to his senses.

"it `s just normal."

He said, stirring the long-handled spoon a little faster.

"Wait, is there something like a mushroom cloud coming out of it?"

The girl's tone sounded even more surprised.

"Don't worry, everything is under control."

Li Mo stopped what he was doing, grabbed the Sorting Hat in his hand, and pulled out a shield from it to block himself.

It’s not that you can’t use the spell [Scales], but if you use the spell indiscriminately at this time, the overflowing magic power may affect the potion and cause further impact.

If I just move a little more slowly, I should be able to...

“Isn’t this exploding?!?”

Chapter 262: The food safety issue of potions cannot be delayed (

From the results, the white savory essence was successfully produced.

Excluding the time when the system provided materials, this was the first time that Li Mo successfully replicated the potion.

Unfortunately, there was no record of the ingredients for another potion, Polyjuice Potion, in his hand. As for the ingredients of Polyjuice Potion in the original Harry Potter novel, Li Mo only remembered the skin of an African bush snake besides Xiao Shuai and Xiao Mei.

“Is this really drinkable?”

Chihaya Aine looked at the potion in the small glass bottle in her hand and asked suspiciously.

Because Li Mo had cooked a full pot, and although the ingredients were not cheap, they were quite affordable compared to the effect, so Li Mo, in a good mood, gave a small bottle of white savory essence to Chihaya Aine to comfort her mood as she was frightened by the explosion just now.

But now it seems that the stupid Muggle lady is more concerned about the food safety of the potion than the effect of the potion...

Upon hearing this, Li Mo also looked down at the potion he was bottling.

Compared to the original white savory essence, perhaps because of the explosion, the affordable version he brewed this time is darker in color, and there seems to be some black sediment in it, which should be the residue of certain materials in the potion. It is not as clear as the original potion, and the smell is a bit pungent.

But the effect should be fine.

So he confidently said to Chihaya Aine things like, 'This is called caramel color,' 'Maybe there's a Maillard reaction,' 'There's fruit pulp sediment in the juice, just shake it before drinking and it'll be fine,' 'This isn't a burnt smell, it's a sauce aroma, and this time the white savory essence is a sauce aroma.'

But the more he explained, the more suspicious the girl with tiger teeth looked.

"all in all,"

So in the end, Li Mo simply gave up, grinned at the other party, raised his thumbs, and said loudly: "Clean and hygienic!"

She didn't know if it was Chihaya Aine's illusion, but she felt that Li Mo's big white teeth seemed to make a "ding" sound and light up.

"I seem to have heard similar words on YouTube,"

The girl said thoughtfully, "I remember a blogger who traveled to India said this when he drank the water of the Ganges..."

"You remembered wrong."

Li Mo interrupted her in a loud and clear voice.

"Aha?"

The girl seemed quite dissatisfied with Li Mo's questioning of her memory.

"That's what the official who drank the nuclear waste water said."

Li Mo continued: "Then he got cancer."

The corner of Chihaya Aine's eye twitched, and as she looked at the clean and hygienic potion in her hand, her expression seemed to become even more disgusted.

"Don't worry, my potion isn't that bad. At most it'll just cause diarrhea, a sore throat, and increased libido."

Li Mo comforted.

"This is totally dangerous stuff!"

The girl couldn't help but complain: "What kind of medicine is it if it has more negative effects than benefits?"

"The last one is a positive effect."

Li Mo shook his head: "Viagra was originally used to treat heart disease, but now it's more expensive than heart disease medication."

"Although there may be some risks, I suggest that Aine-san accept this."

Asagumo Chihaya, who had also received two bottles of Baixian essence from Li Mo, suddenly said, "Although it looks a bit strange, its value may be much higher than you expected."

"Eh? But..."

Chihaya Aine still looked a little reluctant.

She really couldn't figure out what the "value" of this bottle in her hand, which looked like cooking oil mixed with burnt breadcrumbs, was. Instead, she was surprised that Asagumo Chihaya would be so happy to accept two bottles of magic potion.

"Well, it's still a 'potion' after all."

Asagumo Chihaya said with a smile.

Unlike Chihaya Aine, she had witnessed the magic of the white savory essence with her own eyes: when Li Mo's arm was cut off at the elbow outside the hot spring hotel, it was glued together with the white savory essence.

Moreover, unlike modern medicine's limb transplant surgery which may have some side effects, Li Mo's arm did not show any adverse reactions after being glued on, and there was not even a visible scar. If the memory of that time was not too vivid, the girl would almost regard everything that happened at that time as a dream, not knowing whether it was a good dream or a nightmare.

Even though the white savory essence that Li Mo brews now is not as high-quality as the original one, but even if it only has 30% to 50% of its efficacy, this thing is still superior to modern medicine and has almost immeasurable medical prospects.

That is to say, magic power is consumed during the cooking process. Although the current magic power is a renewable resource for Li Mo, the regeneration speed is too slow. Therefore, good things like white savory essence that can save lives at critical moments are still scarce.

"Since Senior Chao Yun has said so..."

Chihaya Aine originally wanted to ask about Chihaya Asagumo's potion in detail, but at this time Chihaya Asagumo was already drinking the flower tea with a smile without saying a word, so Chihaya Aine could only mutter and accept the potion. Li Mo's eyebrows twitched when he saw her reluctant look: Damn it, if you don't want it so much, just give it back to me!

"By the way, since Asakura-san has finished making the medicine, are you free to come home with me today?"

The girl carefully packed the potion separately from the other things in her schoolbag, closed the bag again, and asked Li Mo.

"cough--"

Chihaya Asagumo, who was still drinking tea, almost spit out the tea from her nose.

"Wow, is Asagumo-senpai okay?"

Chihaya Aine was startled and quickly took out a napkin.

"No, it's okay... cough cough..."

Chihaya Asagumo waved her hand to stop the other person from pressing the napkin to her face. After coughing a few times, she managed to calm her breath and said, "What did you just say about... ahem... going home with Takuma-kun?"

"Well..."

Chihaya Aine looked at Li Mo hesitantly, as if asking for Li Mo's opinion.

Li Mo did not hide anything and directly told Chihaya Asagumo what happened to Chihaya Aine. The latter then nodded in understanding.

"In that case, if you don't mind, please let me come along."

Chihaya Asagumo said with a smile, "After all, Takuma-kun is a boy. If he and Aine-san go home alone, it might be a little inconvenient. If I go with you, even if we run into Aine-san's parents, it will be easier to explain, right?"

"That's true, what do you think, Asakura-san?"

Chihaya Aine nodded, her long pink hair dancing like cherry blossoms in April.

Li Mo: "Don't be slow."

Chihaya Aine: "?"

Chapter 263: Isn’t the runway very spacious?

"Isn't the school gate in that direction?"

After leaving the club building, Chihaya Aine just took two steps towards the school gate slope when she saw Li Mo and Chihaya Asagumo walking towards a more secluded corner of Sobu High School in tacit understanding.

"Just come with us."

Li Mo made a 'hush' gesture and walked towards the side of the school with the confused girl.

Although there is a side door in that direction, students generally do not go out from here - of course not because the door cannot be opened from this side, which is the situation that Hidetaka Miyazaki encountered as a child - but because that is actually the parking lot for faculty and staff.

If you go out from the side door, the road is not only longer, but also farther away from the tram station which is most convenient for students to commute. You may even run the risk of encountering teachers, so you rarely see students going through this door.

"So what are we doing here?"

Arriving at the small parking lot on campus, Chihaya Aine joked, "Could one of these cars be yours?"

Then she saw an old Ford car floating out from under an empty parking space like a rising submarine.

Because the scene was so bizarre, the girl's ability to speak was frozen for a moment. She opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.
