Kars felt a little confused by Alice's envious gaze directed at them. What was she envious of? Their ti spent together? But if it was genuine envy, it felt strange. It seed weird for her to want to sit in Marisa's lap just like him.
“So, what kind of potion are you trying to make, Marisa?” Alice quickly averted her gaze, not forgetting their agreent to help Marisa solve the issue of potion ingredients.
“Cough, cough!!” Marisa imdiately started coughing. Quite a few cracker crumbs she had been eating fell onto Kars’s head. After all, that reason had just been a lie to fool Alice, and she hadn't even read the book's contents properly.
“Be careful.” Seeing Marisa choking, Alice quickly handed her the tea. After drinking it and recovering, Marisa quickly brushed the cracker crumbs off Kars’s head. At the sa ti, her mind raced, trying to recall which potions she had briefly glimpsed in the Compendium of Potion Making, but in this impromptu recall, she couldn't rember anything.
“It's a potion that can multiply her magical power. Marisa pursues flashy and extre firepower magic, and the more magical power she has, the stronger the effect will be. So, she wants to try the effect of this potion first.”
“Ah! Yes! That’s the one!” Prompted by Kars, Marisa imdiately reacted, nodding to confirm that this was the potion she wanted. She felt lucky for Kars’s tily save; otherwise, if Alice knew she had lied, it would definitely arouse her suspicion.
Marisa handed the Compendium of Potion Making to Alice. Kars ntioned the page number, and after Alice flipped to it and scanned the contents, she nodded, confirming that she did have reserves of the ingredients. Marisa breathed a sigh of relief. At the sa ti, she patted Kars’s head, expressing her gratitude.
“Then, without further ado, let’s start preparing now.” Alice said, intending to start the preparations imdiately and make the potion Marisa needed. This gesture made Marisa open her mouth, but she ultimately nodded in agreent, as she couldn't really refuse now.
As Alice's dolls began to bring out everything needed to make the potion, the items were quickly set up. However, as the brewing started, Marisa held Kars and watched Alice complete the entire process alone, feeling that she and Kars were sowhat idle. She was just watching from the side, even though it was sothing she needed.
“Now, it just needs to simr for half an hour.” Alice closed the book after the final step was completed and explained the situation. Then, she turned to Marisa and saw her happily chatting quietly with Kars. Her expression beca a little complicated.
“Oh? Oh! Thank you, Alice!” Marisa quickly reacted and thanked Alice. Although she didn’t desperately need this potion, the other party had specially helped her make it, so she still needed to thank Alice for her help.
“It's nothing. I just wanted to help you.”
“Hehehe~ Alice, you really are my good friend!” Alice’s reply made Marisa smile brightly. However, Alice, upon receiving this complint, glanced slightly at Kars.
Clearly, rather than the label of "good friend," she wanted to get along with Marisa as pleasantly as Kars did. However, achieving that was quite difficult. She had tried saying suggestive things to Marisa before, but the other party either genuinely didn't notice or simply didn't think of it that way. In any case, none of her attempts were successful, which made Alice feel very frustrated. Now, seeing Kars suddenly pop up and beco so intimate with Marisa, she felt a bit unbalanced.
Maybe I can ask Kars? Find out sothing about Marisa from him, and then maybe my relationship with Marisa can also improve. Alice thought of this idea. However, she wondered if Kars would help her. What if he knew she actually wanted to develop a romantic relationship with Marisa...
No, no, this child probably knows nothing about romance, right? After all, he’s still a kid. Alice could tell Kars was only around a hundred years old, just a child. He probably didn't understand these things at all. So, explaining to him that she wanted to be closer to Marisa wouldn't seem strange to him, right? At most, he would just ask so questions.
Feeling that her idea was feasible, Alice felt a little excited. After looking at Kars, she wondered how she should talk to him in private. After all, she had no way to casually go look for Kars to discuss this. So, she had to find an opportunity now.
“Marisa, can you go get the bottle to hold the potion for ? I still have a few questions I need to ask Kars.”
“Huh? Okay.” Marisa didn't refuse. After putting Kars down from her lap, she headed to the room Alice ntioned. Kars looked at Alice, wondering what she wanted to ask him. If it was about the potion, he felt there wasn’t much to ask.
“Um, Kars… I… I have so questions I want to ask you. It's about Marisa! I’ve always wanted to develop a romantic relationship with Marisa, but it’s been very difficult. So, seeing how good and intimate your relationship with Marisa is now, I want to ask for your help! Please!”
“Eh? Develop a romantic relationship with Marisa? What do you an?” Seeing Kars scratch his head in confusion, Alice didn't find it strange and answered directly:
“I want to beco Marisa’s girlfriend.”
Kars: (°ー°〃)
Huh?
