Chapter 23 Erin-Victoria
It was already evening when Wang Yuxuan and Han Yi arrived in London.
The sunset is like a seasoned painter, gently painting every corner of the city with golden brushstrokes.
The sky presents a gradient of colors, transitioning from light blue to orange, and then gradually blending into deep purple.
"Teacher, please put on this wizard robe."
Han Yi took out a moon-white robe inlaid with gold-edged patterns from the space magic weapon and handed it to Wang Yuxuan.
"This is?"
"The potion selection is actually a grand ceremony. It is not only a place for outstanding pharmacists from all over the world to show their skills, but also many nobles and aristocrats from all over the world will come to watch the ceremony. Everyone will come in formal attire. The wizard robe is the 'formal dress' that we pharmacists often wear. Besides, the teacher will need to demonstrate how to make the [Heavenly Healing Potion] later, so a traditional suit and dress is obviously not suitable."
After hearing Han Yi's explanation, Wang Yuxuan nodded:
"Yes, we can't lose face for China."
He is not a stubborn person, so naturally he would not refuse.
Kirlia rubbed Wang Yuxuan's cheek.
"Qirru! (Yuxuan, I want a dress too!)"
"Go, go, go."
"President Han Yi, could you please find a tailor for me? Make a dress for my Kirlia as well. It just needs to look good." Wang Yuxuan said.
Han Yi was stunned and looked at Kirlia, who was only the size of a palm.
Although he didn't understand why he should make a dress for the little guy, but since the teacher had already asked, how could he, as a student, refuse?
"Okay, teacher. I'll contact them right away."
……
……
In London at night, the stars and lights interweave into a dazzling ocean, decorating the city like a dream.
Han Yi, Wang Yuxuan and Kirlia arrived at a venue in London.
Outside the venue stood four mages, judging from their attires and the mage badges on their chests.
They were actually four high-level magicians.
These four high-level mages acted like gatekeepers, guarding the door and preventing outsiders from approaching.
"High-level mages as gate guards? Four of them?"
Wang Yuxuan secretly smacked his lips.
You should know that there are only two high-level mages in Bo City, one is Zhankong, and the other is the Great Deacon of Hu Jin - Mu He who is hiding in the dark.
I didn't expect that when I came here, I would be the 'doorman'?
Han Yi took out the invitation and handed it to one of the high-level mages.
The high-level mage took it with both hands, opened it and glanced at it before respectfully returning it to Han Yi and saying:
"Master Han Yi, please come in."
Han Yi nodded slightly, took the invitation and took Wang Yuxuan into the venue.
At this time, a grand banquet was in full swing in the venue.
Gathered here are pharmacists and pharmacy masters from all over the world, as well as some noble families, presidents of magic associations, elders, etc. who came to watch the ceremony.
In the center of the banquet hall, there were carefully arranged round tables covered with snow-white tablecloths and filled with a variety of world delicacies and drinks.
The exquisite silver tableware sparkles under the light, and the crystal clear wine glasses reflect a charming luster.
The waiters wore the same uniform and moved among the guests with trays in hand, providing them with attentive service.
...
"Hey, isn't this Han Yi, Master Han?" A man with an Asian face but blue eyes and wearing a blue wizard robe walked towards Han Yi.
Han Yi heard this and turned around. When he saw the other person, a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes.
"Oh, are you bringing your apprentice here?" The man looked at Wang Yuxuan, his eyes full of teasing.
Then the man continued, "What a coincidence! I also brought an apprentice with me. Let's watch my apprentice's performance later!"
After saying that, he left on his own, leaving Wang Yuxuan a little surprised.
"An acquaintance of yours?" Wang Yuxuan asked.
"Hmph, this guy is Miyamoto Cang from Sakura Country. His field of pharmacy is very similar to mine, and our research directions are almost overlapping, which is why our research results are very similar. At first I thought he had maliciously stolen my research results, but after investigation I found that it was not the case." Han Yi said.
"It turns out that they are old rivals who have loved and hated each other for many years."
"Whoever falls in love and hate with him, I want to twist his head off." Han Yi said gritting his teeth.
"It's okay, just watch me. Doesn't that Miyamoto have a disciple? Watch me control him!" Wang Yuxuan said calmly.
"Then I'll leave it to you, teacher."
Afterwards, Wang Yuxuan took Kirlia to taste the local delicacies at the banquet.
Of course, the best tasting cuisine still comes from Chinese cuisine.
...
As time passed quietly, more and more people came into the venue.
Suddenly, the sound in the entire venue stopped, and everyone looked towards the door at the same time.
I saw an elegant woman walking in from outside the venue.
She was wearing an exquisite royal dress. The main color of the dress was deep sapphire, and it was inlaid with countless tiny silver beads. It was shining like the brightest starry sky in the night sky.
She had blonde hair that fell like a waterfall, gently brushing against the arrows, shining with a soft luster under the light.
And those golden eyes, like the rising sun, are warm and powerful, as if they can see into people's hearts, making it impossible to look away.
Her skin was different from that of ordinary European women. It was fairer and smoother, like the finest pottery. One had an urge to touch it.
It was also the first time that Wang Yuxuan had seen such an exquisite and beautiful European woman, and judging from her temperament, it was obvious that she was not comparable to an ordinary child of aristocratic family.
"Han Yi, who is she?"
"She is a member of the British royal family, the first-in-line heir to the Victorian family, and her name is Irene." Han Yi introduced in a low voice.
Wang Yuxuan was stunned when he heard this.
Irene Victoria? The Duke of Taming Dragons! It's her! (I wanted to find a picture, but there are only two types of Irene in the comics, and the clothes don't match.)
No wonder it looks so good!
Kirlia seemed to sense something and looked up at Irene, blinking her big eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.
And Irene seemed to sense something, and her eyes fell on Wang Yuxuan, or to be precise, on Wang Yuxuan's shoulder.
"What a cute little guy! What quality of fairy is this? Why haven't I seen it before?" Irene showed great interest in Kirlia.
But there were too many people at the venue now, and she couldn't go there rashly. Irene had to suppress the idea of getting close to Kirlia.
...
With Irene's entrance, the ceremony finally began.
The host walked onto the stage wearing a fancy suit and holding a microphone:
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Magic Potion Association's annual Potion Ceremony. After multiple rounds of selection, there are a total of four new generation pharmacists participating in the selection this year."
"They are from Sakura Country - Yosuke, China - Wang Yuxuan, Colombia - Jack, Egypt - Tom."
"And the judges, the Grand Master of Alchemy - Lord Semp! The President of the World Magic Alchemy Association - Lord El Gilly! The Vice President..."
The host read out the names of five great men of the World Alchemy Guild in one breath, and the audience applauded enthusiastically.
