Alchemy?

At dusk the couple had already returned to the Salvatore mansion, this was only possible thanks to the tremendous speed of the helicopters.

"Don, you helped us a lot this time" stated Shin.

"Shin, you helped me a lot more, that was nothing" Don replied while patting Jiang Chen's shoulder.

For the Salvatore couple it was as if the two young people were the children they had long since lost, the familiarity they acquired in one day was like that of a lifetime, the same was true of the two young people, who treat the elderly as their relatives.

As they were returning from the ruins, Shin had created a list containing the name of several herbs of varying ages. "Don, I need you to find these herbs for me, according to the list, do you think you can do it?

Holding the list in his hand and checking the names one by one, he replied after pondering for a few moments. "Well, it's not impossible, but it will take a while, they should be able to buy everything by nightfall."

"Okay, buy them if possible!"

"Okay, what else do you need them for?"

"It's a surprise!"

"Hahaha, right, I'm going to ask someone to go buy these things, they must be here before dinner, but for now let's have a chat!"

Don's words made everyone smile, and so the group soon entered the mansion.

_

Just as Salvatore had said, a few hours before dinner, Alfred brought with him the plants and herbs that Shin had requested. "Sir, here are the plants you asked for"

"Thanks, Alfred, you can take these things to the kitchen. I will accompany you".

"No problem, sir, please follow me".

"Alexa, come too, I want to teach you some tricks".

Alexa nodded in agreement, and soon the three arrived at the kitchen, Shin then divided the plants into three sets.

At that moment Alfred and Alexa saw something they would never forget, a small vortex appeared above the plants, lights of different colours flowed like a river and came together to form two nuclei, the process did not take long, and then two uniform spheres floated until the Shin's hands.

"I didn't think it was going to be that easy, Alexa, do you want to try too?"

Alexa, who was astonished and with a jaw-dropping, just nodded in agreement. Shin just smiled at her silly appearance, making her blush in shame.

Shin reached out and touched Alexa's forehead, and through his finger, a small amount of mana flowed into his mind.

"It's a basic spell for passing on knowledge and also some experience, now how about trying it yourself?"

With a sparkle of determination in her eyes, Alexa walked to the front of the counter and the previous scene was repeated, slowly the vortex appeared, and the lights flowed in a constant flow, gathering in uniform spheres.

The sight caused a smile to appear on Shin's face. "She is a talent, even though I can pass her the steps, and some experience still takes a lot of effort to reach that step, geniuses exist!"

After a sumptuous dinner, while everyone was still at the table, Shin took a bottle containing two coloured spheres and handed them to Don.

"Here are the things I promised; they are medicines capable of bringing together a great deal of life's aura; in simpler terms, it makes the body stronger and younger!"

Don and Beatrice looked at the bottle with curiosity, with their age, there were already chronic problems that bothered them, so Shin's words were beautiful to them.

"Sir this ..." Alfred tried to speak to his master.

"Alfred, I know what you mean, if he wanted me to die I would already be dead, what good would it do to poison me now?"

Don's words meant that the butler could not refute and all he could do was sigh and cry out that nothing would happen to his master.

"Shin, he didn't mean it, I'm sorry about that".

"It's okay, I understand his side, try it, I think the results will be surprising".

Don then held one of the spheres and handed the other to Beatrice, the two nodded to each other in agreement, then swallowed the 'pill'.

It didn't take long before they both closed their eyes and felt something leave their stomachs and run through their bodies, it was an indescribable sensation and could only be summed up with the word 'good'.

After a few minutes, the couple opened their eyes and what fell into their vision was something of a shock.

"Dear you ..." Beatrice couldn't hide the tone of surprise in her voice.

"Dear you .." The same happened to Don

The surprise in their eyes was expected, what they both saw was something unbelievable, the spouse with whom they lived for many years, seemed to have gone back to the past, even with all the care that took their appearances were still people reaching old age, however, at this moment they seemed to have rejuvenated reaching almost the peak of their middle age.

"Shin, you, what is this, it must be priceless ..."

"It was nothing that's what I want to talk to you about, I can make some medications like the one I gave you, but I don't have the capital to start a company, so I wanted to offer you a partnership, now that you've tried it for yourselves, must know how profitable it will be"

"Silly boy, you didn't need that much, even if the profit wasn't going to be so big it would still help you, even more now, get ready to be the richest young man in the world!"

For Don's words, Shin just smiled without taking it seriously; he barely imagined what the future held for him.

Shin and Alexa's flight was scheduled for early morning, so everyone gathered at sunrise to say goodbye and take some souvenir photos.

"Shin, I will start to store resources, acquire some companies and organize a suitable company, when everything is ready I will contact you".

"Okay, Don, I'm looking forward to our partnership".

"Foolish boy, hurry up, or you'll miss the flight".

"Okay, okay, I'll wait for you in Beijing".

....

After being saved by Shin whom she did not know, Lina was not in a hurry to return home, after spending almost a day in a cave recovering, she left for the home of an acquaintance of her family.

It took almost 6 hours before she could reach the front of a beautiful mansion outside Florence, the beautiful young woman was already recognized by the mansion's workers and entered directly without problems.

"Oh, Lina, I didn't expect you here!"

The voice was familiar to Lina, but the man in front of her was not the one she remembered.

"You are? "

"Haha, a surprise isn't it? You certainly didn't think your uncle Don would be a few years younger!"

The man's words confirmed Lina's thoughts. "Are you, Uncle Don? Where's Aunt Beatrice?"

"Ah, Lina! How long ago".

A sweet, gentle voice sounded, attracting Lina's attention, and looking in that direction what fell into her vision was a beautiful woman around her middle age.

"Aunt Beatrice?"

Lina had seen some portraits of Beatrice in her early years, so she soon recognized that the woman in front of her was the aunt she was looking for.

"You two, how?"

The shock had been too much for her to assimilate all at once leaving her stunned, it was not her fault, since the uncles she remembered looked like she was in her 50s, and the two in front of her had barely reached 40.

Lina's rather silly appearance made the Salvatore couple laugh happily.

"Come, Lina, we will explain to you what has happened in the past few days."

Soon the trio gathered in an outside area of ​​the mansion, on the table were some savoury and sweet as well as tea.

"Lina, a few days ago, your uncle was arriving from a business trip, still at the airport, he had a cardiac arrest, a doctor nearby even went so far as to say that he would not live for more than a few minutes".

Beatrice began to calmly explain everything that had happened in the past few days.

"So, as...?"

"When his uncle was about to leave this world, a young Chinese man saved him, he stayed with us for a while, in fact, if he had arrived yesterday, he would have found him, oh, he and the woman who accompanied him make a perfect couple".

As Beatrice continued to gossip, her words made the image of a particular person blink in Lina's mind.

"Plus, that doesn't explain your current appearance ..."

"Well, that is, it is a secret of our family, as your father is a great friend of mine I will tell you but don't tell him yet, I will personally find him okay?" Don believed in Lina, so he saw no problem in telling them his 'secret'.

"Well, before this couple left, the young man prepared some medicines for us, and the result is the one you can see".

"This ...." Lina's thoughts sped up, even with magic it was challenging to maintain her appearance, even more, difficult was to make one rejuvenate.

"Incredible, isn't it? Your uncle will sell these drugs in the future in partnership with this guy, but you and Lina, what are you doing here?"

"So, uncle, this time I left without the family company, I ended up finding some partners to explore a ruin, but I was deceived and almost died ...."

"That..."

Lina's words startled the Salvatore couple, who worried that the person was well and healthy in front of them. The look of concern of the two made Lina smile sweetly.

"Don't worry, I was saved, the moment I thought I couldn't live to see tomorrow, a prince charming appeared, with an arrogant look he destroyed the Golem that he couldn't even scratch with a blow believe me? Ah, he was so beautiful, but he didn't even bother to tell me his name .... and there was also that woman with black hair ...."

While Lina was lost in her disappointments, in the Salvatore's mind the image of a couple emerged, Lina's words described very well two people they knew.

"Lina, what were these two like?"

"Well uncle, you see, my prince had white hair and crimson eyes, oh he was so beautiful ... oh, but that woman had black hair and amethyst eyes, I hate to admit she was more beautiful than me."

"That..."

Don and Beatrice looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

"Alfred, take that picture with the picture we took today".

"Yes, my lady".

It was not long before Alfred returned to the table with a portrait, which he passed politely to Beatrice.

"Did these people save you?" Handing the painting over to Lina, she questioned her.

As she held the picture in her hands and carefully looked at the photo, Lina felt her heart skip a beat, in the photo, there was the boy she thought about repeatedly on the last day.

"Aunt, do you know him? Where is he from? Where does he live? Do you have his number?"

Lina's outburst was unexpected for the couple, who could only sigh and respond appropriately.

"Lina, this is the young man who helped your uncle, he is Chinese and left this morning for his hometown, and the girl next to him is ...."

Beatrice was reluctant to continue her words, and that did not escape the girl's eyes.

"Auntie, don't worry, just give me everything you know about him".

All Beatrice was able to do was sigh and on a paper write down all the information she knew about Shin, such as contact number, address and college where he studies.

Holding the paper she received from her aunt, Lina smiled charmingly, got up quickly and left, leaving just a few words behind.

"Uncle, an aunt I'm leaving, thank you very much for everything".

Before the Salvatore could say anything, Lina was already gone.

"I will find you".

That was the only thought in his mind.
