Parallel World Pharmacy

Volume 2 - Ch 2

After one week, please come back again.

During that period of time, I will prepare the skin whitening powder.

Therefore, please dont ever have phlebotomy performed until then.

And so, that was the promise Falma gave to the young Marquis daughter, Chloe. It was already dark in the Imperial Capital, and the shops had already closed.

I will be leaving soon. Master Falma, are you still working hard?

I am, looking at the situation right now.

Lotte went up the stairs to the 4th floor.

Master Falma. We are going back to the mansion, why dont you leave the research for tomorrow? A carriage is coming to pick us up.

Lotte was worried, she knocked on the laboratory door to check Falmas situation. Beyond the door,Thank you, but go home first. I will be staying today,was what Falma told her.It seemed that Lotte was waiting for a while in front of the door. Falma locked the laboratory while researching. He must not be seen using substance creation, and it was dangerous if he inadvertently spilled some chemicals. He would only invite a person who knew how to handle laboratory instruments. Ellen sometimes came.

Like Master Falma has told us before. Master Falma, please do not overwork too much. I am already worried that you didnt eat lunch.

Then after that, the laboratory doors suddenly opened.

Thank you, Lotte. Ill end todays work. Lets go home.

Yes!

Falma remembered that he was about to become too immersed in his work again. Being completely absorbed in his work was natural for Falma, so he had to be careful. This was even a greater burden on a childs body.

He declined, this time, to die from overworking. He wouldnt last long if he wasnt relaxed. Thus so, Falma self-reflected.

I wonder what todays dinner is.

Yes! Youre hungry I see.

The two people rode on the carriage that picked them up back to de Mdicis family mansion.

He continued to research during business hours only for a few days without being unreasonable with his health. When Falma appeared in the staff break room from the 4th-floor laboratory, the staff spat out their drink.

Prrfftt! What the hell happened!?

Ellen went back to change her clothes because her white coat got dirty after bursting into laughter.

Master Falma, your face is too white!

Lottes eyes became wide.

How? White?

Falma became embarrassed when he heard Ellen laugh her heart out again after returning from changing her white coat.

Why did you apply it on your skin by yourself!? Why did you apply it on your own skin!? I say its better to apply it to a woman.

He hadnt seen himself in a mirror, but Falma believed he looked likesomeone wearing a white face mask.

That is the whitest I have seen so far. It has the sense of translucence, and the features have depth too!

Ellens fingers were slightly trembling as she was trying to touch his skin.

This whiteness is surprising.

Falma didnt originally have pure white skin. Since he had been training in Divine Art outside in the sun for so long, he was a typical tanned kid. Though now, he was white as snow. Well, only his face.

Women of this world that had white skin were deemed more attractive, so his goal was to make a real medical white foundation.

Ah, but Ellen seemed to look troubled.
