In a discreet manner, mixing a poisonous substance into the pile of alchemical ingredients on her classmate's table, Rumia Flora, continuing to live the life of Ruri Zerem, waited for the concoction stirred by the red-haired woman to finish.
"Hey, Ruri! Been spacing out, have you?"
"Uh, not really. You see, I'm done concocting my potion. It's a Mana Potion, by the way. How about you?"
"Sigh. You're secretly a genius, aren't you?"
Alice commended Ruri's potion concocting as she continued to finish her work.
"Ha! Perhaps you should stop worrying about others' work when you have yet to finish yours."
Rumia teased before her eyes darted around, seeing some students did the same as they managed to finish within the allotted time, while some others were busy completing the product.
Although Rumia wasn't an Alchemist, it was easy for her to follow the instructions written in the basic alchemy manual lent to each of them.
