'Blessings of the Witch's Heart—'

'Write words of blessing on the crystal, and the Holy Crystal will bring you good fortune.'

Here is a template:

'Verdant Wind's Whisper, may the light of stars and moon spread across the journey—(A common Avenquin Elf blessing. If travelers can't think of any blessings, they can delete the content within the brackets and copy this line).'

He glanced further down to see a series of messages:

'Wishing for a Cursed Spear.'—Silver Meteor, 1447,11,2.

'Heard it's quite effective, wishing for Uler's Bow.'—Ald, 1447,12,7.

'Bless Miss Tia to definitely accept my proposal.'—Alister, 1448,1,5.

'Wish fulfillment, Hydra's Trident, (1/1).'—Cursed Aura, 1448,2,9.

'Verdant Wind's Whisper, may the light of stars and moon spread across the journey.'—Phoenix Fire, 1448,3,11.

Zhang Tianmiu's gaze moved down directly to information from half a year ago:

'A poisonous jinx, mission failed.'—Sicape, 1449,5,14.

'Verdant Wind's Whisper, may the light of stars and moon spread across the journey().'—Ade, 1449,5,14.

His gaze fixed on these two messages, then he slightly squinted his eyes.

"Tangtang!"

Her friend and confidant shouted, startling Tang Xin. She took a deep breath, looked up, and rolled her eyes: "My dear Little Princess, what are you up to again? Can't you not be so jumpy? Don't you know scaring people can scare them to death?"

The adorable girl gave a cheeky smile: "Aren't I just happy?" She suddenly closed the book in front of Tang Xin, pressed her hands on the title page, leaned closer, and asked: "Tangtang, didn't you say last time that your parents left you alone to travel?"

"Yes," Tang Xin squinted her eyes, like a dangerous feline. "They indeed went 'traveling,' to see pigeons."

"See pigeons?"

"Yes, the big kind."

The girl seemed a bit clueless, but still asked: "So Tangtang, the winter break is coming up, do you have any plans?"

"I'll be spending it alone."

"Wow, how pitiful, your uncle and aunt are too cruel." She exaggerated a sigh.

"Speak normally." Tang Xin glanced at her friend, who, with a large chest but lack of brains, couldn't keep secrets.

"Our family plans to travel during the winter break, why don't you join us; it's not like one more would matter."

Tang Xin patted her friend's chubby cheek: "Little Princess, your family is truly wealthy, but if you go traveling, what am I supposed to do?"

"You're my good friend, you're not considered an outsider," the girl pouted: "Besides, my parents know you too, and this time we just happened to get four tickets, wasting a spot would be a pity."

"A spot?"

Tang Xin looked up: "Don't tell me you're going to that place."

"Yes," the girl was a bit smug, enunciating each word: "It's—Eteliria!"

"You're going too far with this star-chasing," Tang Xin sighed in exasperation: "My dear Little Princess."

"It's not necessarily star-chasing, my end-of-term exam results were quite good, and my dad agreed," she shook Tang Xin's hand vigorously: "Tangtang, Tangtang, come with me, you know so much about Eteliria, you can't just leave me there alone."

"So you're using me as a laborer, get lost," Tang Xin replied with irritation, the most annoying part being that the star her friend idolized was that headache-inducing big pigeon. But after thinking it over, she looked up again: "...Alright, but remember to thank your aunt and uncle for me."

The girl brightened up, screamed, and hugged her, nearly jumping up.

"I love you, Tangtang!"

...

Ande Ulriel.

Fang Hong had actually heard of this name before, not as an assistant to Hilveld's grandfather, but for his other, even more renowned identity—the former chairman of the Southern Region Alchemist Alliance.

His tenure as the chairman marked the most prosperous era of the Southern Region Alchemist Alliance, which was about twenty years ago. During that time, Ande Ulriel was not only the chairman of the Alliance but also one of the leading craftsmen of the Rose Workshop.

Ande Ulriel learned his craft around Rodell and could be considered a successor of the Kapuka School. If considered properly, he would be a senior, as Fang Hong himself was also a bonafide student of the Kapuka School.

This person specialized in flexible construct techniques, became famous early, and was already known in the Tarun area in his twenties. He subsequently held important positions in Iron Candle Bay and the Elpaxin craftsman guilds, achieving the Artisan Master title at forty.

He eventually returned to his hometown to lead the Alchemist Alliance, remaining until old age, when he chose to retire and retreat from the world. After that, the famous alchemist vanished without further appearances to the public.

Fang Hong didn't expect that he was not only still alive but also had such a connection with Hilveld.

Thinking of Hilveld taking him to meet such a legendary alchemist, Fang Hong couldn't help but feel a little nervous, realizing that this was the highest-ranking alchemist he had encountered in Eteliria.

If the brief exchange with the Dwarf Chairman Rosetta in Elpaxin doesn't count—

In all seriousness, the interaction with the Dwarf Chairman was merely a brief conversation, far from a proper meeting.

The reputation of Ande Ulriel was such that he heard the name during his time learning in Kapuka; Ulriel was one of the most outstanding craftsmen of the Kapuka over the past thirty years, and over a century within its history, there were only two or three who could match him.
