Chapter 1591 A War Without a Winner (Forty-one)

"Good morning, dear."

Isobel closed the notebook in her hand, stood up from the sofa, and gave Albert a warm hug and a good morning kiss.

"I thought you would sleep a little longer?"

Albert hugged Isobel for a while and whispered in her ear, "Katrina was very restless last night. I guess she won't wake up until noon."

He actually knew what Isobel meant, and he also knew that he should stay with Katrina, so that this virgin girl could see her lover the first time she woke up, which would make people feel more at ease.

But Albert was indeed a little hungry, so he got up and ate something to replenish his energy.

"How do you feel?"

"Feeling?"

"Yes, feeling."

Noticing Isobel's interested expression, Albert didn't know how to answer for a while.

Not long after sitting down, the house elf Kara brought a particularly rich breakfast. Albert forked the beef and put it in his mouth to chew slowly. After considering his words, he swallowed the food in his mouth and said to his wife, "I feel like I have ruined another beautiful girl."

"I don't see any guilty expression on your face." Isobel joked, "It seems that Katrina should satisfy you."

"It's really a great feeling to be liked by a beautiful girl." Albert quickly finished the last piece of poached egg on the plate, took a bite of the bread, and said vaguely, "You taught Katrina a lot of things."

"Katrina is not a qualified partner." Isobel commented on her sister very frankly: "I have always been worried that she can't even be a girlfriend."

"Most girls are actually like that!" Albert finished the last piece of bread, picked up the milk next to him and drank it all, then took out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe the corner of his mouth, "I never expected girls to be as good and considerate as you."

"But you are also different from other boys." Isobel said without comment.

"What's the difference? I'm a man too, and my hobbies are the same as most men."

Albert knew his situation very well. If he didn't have the plug-in, even if he could live again, his situation would probably be only slightly better than that of ordinary people. After graduating from school, he still had to worry about making money to support his family, marrying and having children, unlike the harmonious and happy family he has now.

After all, the plug-in on him brought too many things to Albert.

So, he still has some self-knowledge.

After picking up Alice who was trying to grab the cat's tail and lifting her high, Albert looked at Isobel who was flipping through the notes and asked, "What are you studying again?"

"The formula of the beauty potion invented by Catherine." Isobel briefly told Albert about Catherine's purpose.

"Oh, let me see."

Albert put little Alice back in the crib, took the notes handed by Isobel, and studied Catherine's latest beauty potion with her.

Albert's intuition told him that the various beauty potions recorded in this notebook were actually similar things, except that some of the potion raw materials had been replaced.

Even if they continued to be improved, they could not squeeze out much potential.

If you really want to dig deeper into this field, you need to have superb attainments in potions, herbs and alchemy to create something satisfactory, just like Nicolas Flamel invented the Philosopher's Stone in the past.

However, this is undoubtedly a bottomless pit with no results.

After all, eternal youth is just a false proposition. If you want to achieve certain results, luck is more important than talent and talent.

Isobel didn't care much. She was still young and in the best stage of a woman's life. If she used the results she had obtained and took good care of herself, she could still postpone aging for many years and didn't have to worry about aging at all.

And the long ten years were enough for Albert to do a lot of things. By then, there might be new breakthroughs in this research.

"I dare say Catherine would be very disappointed if she heard what you said!" Isobel closed the notes that had been revised after Albert's advice.

Catherine was willing to share the potion formula with her so readily, hoping to use Albert to optimize the potion formula one step further, so as to make the effect of the beauty potion further, but in Albert's view, this so-called new formula is actually just that.

Unlike ordinary pharmacists, Albert, who has already achieved good results in potions, can roughly judge the effect of potions by simply looking through the properties of potion ingredients and the process of brewing potions.

This is why they are called "masters".

They are no longer just configuring potions, but figuring out the principles, and inventing and improving new potions.

Catherine also has some talent in potions, but she has not systematically studied the knowledge of the "master" field with Albert, so her understanding of some aspects is not deep enough. In Albert's view, the current formula is just a pile of medicinal materials that are effective for beauty, and it is impossible to completely stimulate the medicinal properties.

Moreover, Albert suspected that there were certain tricks in the medicinal materials, just like the immortality novels that required medicinal materials of a certain age and needed to be picked at certain fixed times.

The most important thing is that magic potions have some "impurities" to a certain extent. Using "scientific" methods to make better magic potions may be a way to improve the effectiveness of magic potions, and this aspect involves the field of alchemy.

"Your ideas are always different from others, but this may be a good way."

It is always more reliable to delay aging than to make people beautiful all of a sudden. Otherwise, the beauty potion invented by Zygmunt Bage is very good, but that thing will make people change their faces and make themselves fake. Albert always thinks that it is more appropriate to call it a beauty potion.

In addition to making you look different from yourself, it can also have a camouflage effect, but people cannot drink magic potions for a lifetime and still need to face the cruel reality.

However, for most girls, there are probably not many who are willing to change their appearance. At least confident and beautiful girls like Isobel and Catherine will never tolerate themselves becoming something else.

While Isobel was discussing beauty potions with Albert, Katrina had already woken up, but she looked a little tired.

She was a little disappointed that she didn't see Albert by her side, but when the door was pushed open and Albert came in with a cup of corn milk soup to replenish her energy, the disappointment on her face was swept away.

"If you are still tired, sleep for a while after drinking it." Albert kissed Katrina's forehead and said.

"I want to take a shower first, and then sleep for a while."

Katrina lazily stretched out her hand for Albert to carry her into the bathroom, took a simple shower, drank the corn milk soup under Isobel's smiling gaze, and lay back on the big bed with changed sheets, ready to take another nap.

"Did you do this the first time?" Katrina felt that it would affect her walking.

"Almost. You are lucky. You should be able to recover soon." Isobel waved her wand, opened all the windows in the room, and after a breeze took away the stuffy air in the room, she handed the ointment on the bedside table to her sister, "Apply it yourself."

"Where's Albert?"

"Do you want to continue to torment him?" Isobel looked at the greedy Katrina with a strange expression.

"There won't be many such opportunities in the future." Katrina pulled up the sheets to cover her cheeks and whispered, "Besides, this is not the first time he has done this."

"It seems that Miss Granger has set a bad example." Isobel shook her head and said. "Don't worry, you will have plenty of time in the future. Sleep a little longer. When you wake up, no one will compete with you these days."

Isobel did not compete with her, but the problem was that there was one more person in the room, which always made Katrina feel awkward, but in Isobel's words: you will have to get used to it sooner or later.

It turned out that being hugged by people on both sides was not as comfortable as imagined. That night, Albert suffered from insomnia.
