Master's inner thoughts are spilling out.
About
Ersia Velcro, the kingdom's greatest alchemist known as the Sage of the Red Moon.
Cold and blunt, she was always perfect.
At least, until she drank an elixir she made herself.
She believed she had perfected an elixir to amplify magical power, but what she actually created was a Truth Elixir that makes it impossible to lie.
"Master, am I a nuisance to you?"
"You are. But I'd be lonely without you by my side, so I want you to stay forever..."
"........"
"Apprentice, forget what I just said."
A cold master who has lived her whole life hiding her emotions.
But now, even a trivial question brings her hidden sincerity bursting out.
And the secret she wanted to hide most was none other than her feelings for her apprentice.
