Hello, Lucia, I Came to Lania Kaia Just to Meet You!

After just an hour, Rita had a clear idea of how to brew a low-cost version of [Melting Time]. What amazed her was that Lucia hadn't directly handed her the solution—she had skillfully guided Rita to figure it out on her own. 

More importantly, Lucia—a legendary alchemist—had even complimented her efforts! 

Pre-lesson Rita: "I'm just here to deliver something, don't try to involve me in anything else." 

Post-lesson Rita: "Hello, Lucia, I came to Lania Kaia just to meet you!" 

Rita smiled, thanked Lucia, and prepared to leave. 

Lucia chuckled. "Still pretending you don't know what I want?" 

With a sigh, Rita sat back down. Of course, there's no such thing as a free lunch. 

"What do you want me to do? Could you tell me first?" 

Lucia took out a potion bottle filled with swirling silver mist. "This tells me you've been exposed to moonlight."
