Alchemists do not need self-cultivation

"Yes."

"Don't let Levi know about this, or your wedding will be quite a spectacle."

"what?"

After saying that, George coughed twice and then continued.

"Speaking of proposing, my process back then was actually quite simple. I prepared the diamond ring in advance and then proposed directly."

"That simple?"

"It's not a complicated matter, just be straightforward."

George said.

"Boss, don't even think about asking the other old guys. Most of them are still single."

"Oh……"

------

The research department is located in the very heart of the IW headquarters.

Inside the vast research institute, Ayana Fujisawa, wearing a white lab coat, was shaking a test tube in her hand.

Wearing the same white lab coat, Tessa rested her chin on her hand and looked at Fujisawa Ayana, asking lazily, "You really like to come up with some different inventions outside of your research missions, don't you?"

"If you don't want to help, then keep slacking off."

"The key is that I don't understand any of the things you've made."

Tessa stretched and then looked at the test tube in Fujisawa Ayana's hand.

"As a 'listener,' the knowledge in my mind is all related to mechanical engineering."

Me too.

Ayana Fujisawa said.

"So I had to start learning chemistry and microbiology from scratch."

"You're really working hard, even though there's no war anymore."

"What I developed was not a weapon."

"Huh? I thought it was a biological weapon."

Upon hearing that it wasn't a weapon, Tessa raised her head slightly.

"Then what's that in your hand?"

"liquor."

"……what?"

“Back in school, I discovered that Isaac never got drunk no matter what kind of alcohol he drank, not even the Water of Life, so I decided to develop an alcohol that could get Isaac drunk.”

Ayana Fujisawa's gaze was very sharp when she said this.

"It's not a matter of alcohol concentration, but rather that alcohol is diluted and metabolized by the special blood and body fluids before it enters the brain. My research focuses on how to prevent alcohol from being diluted by blood circulation and directly impacting the brain after absorption."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Tessa stood up immediately and said to Fujisawa Ayana with a displeased expression.

"You actually planned to give Brother Isaac something so dangerous to drink?"

Ayana Fujisawa glanced at Tessa.

What are your thoughts?

“I think I can help too.”

Chapter 1657: Being a teacher isn't so hard

“I have blood samples from Isaac and his son, but not many, so we need to be very careful during the experiment.”

"We definitely need to be careful... Hmm? Son?"

Tessa, suddenly realizing what was happening, looked at Fujisawa Ayana in surprise.

"Have you seen his son?"

She remembered that Isaac did have a son created through biotechnology, but Tessa had never met him.

"I met him once."

"Isn't it an incredibly cute baby?" Tessa quickly leaned closer and asked.

"No, an eighteen-year-old boy."

"eighteen……"

Upon hearing this, Tessa was taken aback at first, then smiled and patted Fujisawa Ayana on the shoulder.

"Stop joking. How old is Isaac? How could he possibly have an eighteen-year-old son?"

Fujisawa Ayana said calmly, "Didn't your older brother create a time machine to try and change the world to one without advanced technology? When he activated the machine, it caused fluctuations in spacetime, and children who had grown up in the future were summoned here."

"……real?"

Why would I lie to you?

As Fujisawa Ayana spoke, she continued to focus her attention on the test tube in her hand.

"But I only stayed for a short while before going back."

"Oh... what a pity, I didn't get to see any of them."

Tessa tapped her chin, feeling a little regretful, then turned to ask Fujisawa Ayana.

"What will that child be like when he/she grows up?"

"A wonderful child."

Just thinking about how the other person would call her "Ayana-mama" when they met her made Fujisawa Ayana smile involuntarily.

Click.

The automatic door to the laboratory suddenly opened, and Isaac walked in and waved to the two of them.

"Fujisawa, Tessa, you're still here? Is your research workload heavy?"

"Brother Isaac?"

Upon seeing Isaac, Tessa's face lit up with a fleeting look of surprise, and she quickly ran over to him.

"Is the mission over?"

"Yes, that's just finished."

Ayana Fujisawa placed the test tube on the shelf and walked up to Isaac with a smile.

"Isaac, has the child gone back yet?"

"Yes, we've returned to our own time."

Isaac said with a smile.

"Is that so? That's a real shame."

Fujisawa Ayana wanted to see that boy again.

For no other reason than to hear him call her "Ayana's Mom".

Every time she hears Isaac's son call her "Mom," Ayana Fujisawa feels as if she's listening to celestial music.

In short, it was really great.

"Do you have any new research projects coming here this time?" Fujisawa Ayana asked.

"No, I just wanted to ask..."

Isaac scratched his head.

"So, as girls, what kind of marriage proposal do you usually find most acceptable?"

Upon hearing this, Tessa's eyes narrowed, while Fujisawa Ayana remained silent.

Tessa stared at Isaac for a moment, then smiled and asked, "Isaac, are you planning to propose to me?"

Why do you all like making jokes like this?

This is the third person to ask me this question. These people should know about my relationship with Violet.

Ayana Fujisawa then asked, "Are you planning to propose to Violet?"

See, there are still normal people.

Isaac smiled and nodded.

"Yes, I've been dating Violet for a while now, and I think it's time to propose."

"and many more!"

Tessa raised her hand.

"I don't think we need to rush this."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because Isaac is still young, it's too early for him to get married."

Tessa doesn't want Isaac thinking about marriage right now.

Once she gets married, she'll have absolutely no chance.

"Is it early?"

"It's early. You still have IW matters to attend to."

Tessa quickly said.

"I think it's time to let things settle down for a few more years."

In the past, Isaac might have really felt that he should be busy with his career and not think about marriage so early.

However, Olivia had just told him that he should "take a few more years to reflect" regarding his succession as president.
