Aeon grunted and let the adept alchemist speak. He fished out a ledger from beneath his counter and started writing some stuff, seemingly not acknowledging Cedric's presence.

"Since that is out of the way and since he looks busy again, I guess it's my turn to speak." Cedric looked at Emery with a wide smile, and said, "I have a proposal for you, Emery."

"And may I know what's on your mind, senior?" Emery asked, facing Cedric now after removing the status screen from his view.

"Ok, I know today's your last day and I'm guessing you would like to acquire some spells before returning to your world, right?" said Cedric as if he knew everything going on in Emery's mind.

Emery confirmed Cedric's deduction with a nod.

Cedric kept his wide smile before turning to Aeon once more, who was busy writing some stuff in the ledger. He said with a teasing look, "Oh my wonderful friend, may I use the magus crystal... please?"
