"Chief Professor…"
Lucius met the dwarf woman outside the heating room.
She was wearing another pair of spotless lab clothes.
Once again, Lucius didn't know where she was pulling these outfits from…
Was there some secret wardrobe that was in the lab which he didn't know about?
"I'm not wearing the lab coat," Lucius said as he brushed past her. "You can continue the normal stuff."
Villy blinked once, then smiled softly.
"Alright… my lord."
She fell into step beside him as they entered the main lab.
"Was the crafting a complete success? It doesn't matter if you failed, my lord. I know you'll get it right eventually."
Lucius sighed like a man who had endured centuries of suffering.
"We did it on the first try," he said, placing the glowing silver ring onto the main table. "How could someone of my genius possibly fail something this simple?"
He knew he was stretching it… but who cared about a little self glaze?
Villy's eyes sparkled with pride.
