Wizards: Starting with Synthetic Gems

Chapter 132 Sophia's Teacher
'Second rank, so this Sefrin in the Blood Curse Tribunal is second only to Hussein.' Locke pondered. 'The curse this guy developed is a big problem.'

'Never mind, let's talk about it later.'

Speaking of which, the patient who developed the Corpse Blood Curse on the Mother Giants by Hussein still hasn't been cured.

We're just trying to prolong his life right now.

The academy's higher-ups preferred to have the first-class wizard apprentices within the academy solve the problem rather than having formal wizards do so.

Therefore, during this period, many excellent potion-making assistants from Lilith's Cottage have been coming to this treatment center to try to solve the problem of the Blood Curse of the Mother Giants.

Locke had also considered ways to break the curse, but because he had no ideas, he had to give up for the time being.

He hasn't developed potion science as deeply as he has in breeding.

He is currently studying at this treatment center, and his personal pharmacy is also under development.

On the third floor of the treatment center, Sophia the witch and Edwin the wizard were actually observing the treatment results of the three students.

Wizard Edwin laughed at Witch Sophia, "Your student and my two students, one is bold and daring, and the other two are also very daring. I didn't expect that they would actually solve the problem in such an unconventional way."

“Sophia, your student is quite good. Although he is still a bit green in potions.”

“I think we should let them form a small team freely in this treatment center. This team is very good; it reminds me of when I was young.”

Sophia's lips curved slightly. "We still need to get the students to find a way to break this new curse using pure magic potions as soon as possible. Otherwise, the resource consumption of Lilith's Hut will be too severe."

“We can’t always have a breeder come over to assist the potion-making assistants with treatments.”

Sophia asked the wizard Edwin, "Has the patient afflicted with the Blood Curse of the Giants still not been dealt with? This morning in my office, I actually saw the approval form for the potion formula I gave him."

Wizard Edwin was rather helpless. "The academy's higher-ups have forbidden formal wizards from breaking this curse. However, recently, first-class wizard apprentices [Angron], [Astrid], and [Miranda] will all be coming."

“They are almost the most outstanding young potion master assistants of this generation at Lilith's Hut.”

"We always need to give young people some opportunities to practice, don't we? That's how we all started."

The wizard Edwin was rather gossipy, and he chuckled, "Although the other potion-making assistants in our academy are also excellent, these three have the highest probability of resolving Hussein's curse of the giant corpses."

"Of these three, I have the highest opinion of Astrid, because she is the best at making potions to lift curses. That kid Angron is too obsessed with making his so-called mental enhancement potion. He's a bit of a nutcase, which may not be a good thing."

"As for Miranda, she's quite good, and she might also be able to break the curse of the dark wizard Hussein."

The witch Sophia asked, "Isn't Albert, the first-class wizard apprentice, coming?"

Wizard Edwin looked at Witch Sophia in surprise. "Sophia, don't you know? Albert was your classmate, you were both under the same wizarding mentor, and yet you have to ask me about his schedule." "Haven't you reconciled with your wizarding mentor, Lady Morgana?"

Sophia the witch didn't look too good.

Wizard Edwin's eyes flickered as he began to persuade her. "Actually, you and your tutor only have a slight disagreement. She still considers you one of her outstanding students. I've heard that she still keeps an eye on you."

"Mrs. Morgana is a very stubborn and old-fashioned person. She always likes to criticize anything that does not conform to her values. I have heard a little about that incident. I actually think you did the right thing back then."

"That was just a desperate measure you took, but Lady Morgana thinks it's heretical and that you've done something very dangerous."

Wizard Edwin said, "In Lady Morgana's eyes, your last-minute modification of the potion formula was far too radical, which is why she publicly criticized you and broke ties with you. Sophia, if you ask me, you should just apologize and let it go."

Sofia remained silent.

Wizard Edwin, perhaps sensing Sophia's anger, awkwardly changed the subject. "By the way, I see that your student's magical resonance cultivation method has reached a certain level; he can even adapt to changing circumstances and use it to treat patients."

"In some ways, his personality is quite similar to yours, Sofia. He's almost at the level where he could take the breeder certification exam, right?"

Sofia's expression softened slightly, and she smiled, saying, "Yes, that child is similar to me in many ways. He's really bold, and I like him very much."

"His progress in breeding science is much faster than I imagined. This year he even signed a centralized procurement contract with the college. Edwin, you're not a breeder, so you don't follow this and therefore don't know."

Wizard Edwin looked at Sophia in surprise. "Academy procurement contract?"

"He actually has such talent in the field of breeding, signing a bulk purchase contract with the academy while still a breeding assistant," Wizard Edwin said. "Then he must be planning to take the breeding certification exam this year?"

Wizard Edwin's expression darkened slightly. "Then I advise you not to let that child take the exam this year."

On the third floor, in the office of a formal wizard, Sophia looked at Wizard Edwin with a puzzled expression. "Why? He's good enough to participate. Even if he fails, he can gain experience and take the exam again next year."

Wizard Edwin said in a slightly lower voice, "The main problem is that this year is different. If he goes this year... I'm afraid it will be too much of a blow to him."

Do you know who the examiner for this year's breeder certification exam is?

"It's your wizard mentor, Lady Morgana... You don't get along with her. Knowing Lady Morgana's personality, she'd definitely give your student a good dressing down."

"You said it yourself, Locke's personality is very similar to yours. I guess that's probably what Lady Morgana can't stand the most."

Wizard Edwin whispered, "Now, Lady Morgana gets furious whenever she hears anyone mention anything about you, and no one dares to bring you up in front of her. Last time, Advisor Francis tried to get Lady Morgana to contact you, but he was thoroughly humiliated by her, and it didn't turn out well."

"Or you could take the initiative to humble yourself and reconcile with your wizard mentor?"
