I’ll Become a Villainess That Will Go Down in History
chapter-388

Just a little bit of Tolchis, and as long as I don’t make a mistake in the distribution of Lipsim and Currant, I should be able to finish it.

I carefully and meticulously poured the ingredients into the heated beaker.

With my hand, I wiped the sweat from my brow.

If I failed in this, it would be the end. There were no more ingredients.

I didn’t think it would be easy to succeed from the start, but I didn’t expect it to be this difficult. It wasn’t something that could be made by only knowing the ingredients.

Well, if I thought about it, that was to be expected. There was no way anyone could make Maddie that easily.

I slowly stirred the mixture of the three plants. Not too fast, not too slow. Every movement was important.

“…Please, please, please succeed.”

I didn’t want all the work I’ve done so far to go to waste.

I wait a while for the color to change. The liquid in the beaker was turning a beautiful color.

This was where the real work began.

I could only pray that it would not change to a blackish color. I stared at the inside of the beaker for a while.

Please keep the color as it was, please keep this beautiful pale green color.

I screamed desperately in my heart, but I could already see the color changing gradually.

Oh, I had failed again. I couldn’t make the medicine….

All at once, I ran out of energy and collapsed on the spot.

I feel frustration, anger toward myself, and despair. I wonder if it was all for nothing….

A sense of emptiness overtook me, but not a single tear fell. All I could do was sit there in a daze.

What should I do now? For the moment, I had to throw away the failed mixture in the beaker.

I stood up slowly. I noticed that the color of the beaker’s contents was different from usual.

What?

…Orange?

There was a light orange liquid in the beaker. …It was not a filthy color.

“Is this right?”

I brought my face close to the beaker and sniffed it. There was almost no smell at all, but it smelled somewhat sweet.

My head was confused, but my whole body felt joy. I had never been so happy.

Something hot welled up from the bottom of my heart, and my teary glands became loose.

I was happy, I was delighted…. I had succeeded. All my desperate efforts had not been in vain.

Even if I couldn’t get my hands on Maddie, I was able to create a cure.

“Now I can save the lives I would not have been able to save before.”

Hey, Alicia, I did it. I did my best.

So come home soon. Look at what I have accomplished.

I spoke to Alicia over and over in my mind. Even though I knew she would not reply, I could not help but tell her.

I was certain that Alicia would hug me and say, “That’s my Gilles!”.

I exhaled a sigh of relief as I imagined her.

All I had to do now was to take this and go see Gramps. Gramps’ disease had progressed to such a degree that even if he took medicine now, he would probably not survive.

While I begged him to live, I was also well aware of his predicament.

Even so, I was hoping that this medicine might prolong his life even a little. I was holding on to that hope.

I transferred the orange liquid from the beaker into a bottle and rushed out of the room.
