Back To the Beginning
Perfumes

I and Noland were on their way to the merchant association to meet Mr. Meinhard in his room.

The weather was clear as expected.

Although it is sunny, the temperature here remains relatively cold.

Noland was wearing his casual clothes, while I was wearing a coat.

Residents of the Alps region are usually resistant to cold temperatures, it is because they have coexisted with extreme circumstances since birth. Unfortunately, I am not as lucky as them.

"Noland, Evelyn will come to visit later," I said towards the slightly sleepy Noland.

His eyes suddenly enlarged, he changed the direction of his gaze towards me.

"REally?!" tanyakanya.

"100% right."

Noland's steps came to a halt, he turned his back, walked towards me, and grabbed the collar of my coat.

"Why did you just tell me? Arthur!" noland exclaimed while shaking my body.

"I'm sorry I forgot."

Noland took off his grasp.

"I should have worn my best clothes!"

"Just calm down, don't be so rigid."

"You're right..."

Noland has calmed down, we continue our journey.

"When is Evelyn coming?" asked Noland with sparkling eyes.

"Later in the afternoon.maybe she will be together with her manager, her name is Ms.Ariadna."

"Ms.riadna? I'll remember that."

"Why did they visit?" ask Noland.

"They wanted to see a sample of that perfume. They may still have doubts about this idea."

"Ah yes.this idea is a little less convincing, because fragrances are still rarely used, especially in everyday life. Why are you so sure about this idea, Arthur?"

"Do you know the flower garden in the eastern part of the Alps?"

"Yes, I know. We play together there a lot, don't we?

The flower garden in the eastern part of the Alps is one of the favorite spots to visit. I and Noland and Koloman often visit there, to play and pick some as gifts.

When I regained my sense of sight, I could confirm that the garden was truly vast. The garden is filled with red and white tulips.

"True, we often play there. You like the smell of the flowers there, don't you?"

"Yes, I like it! so happy, I picked the flower and brought it home. But baby, a few days after that the flower withered."

"Everyone will love the smell of flowers, but unfortunately the scent will not last long... But that's what perfume is for!"

"Em.. that is?"

"The perfume that I will make will contain a liquid that stores or mimics the scent of an object, such as flowers. So later anyone who has perfume can create a scent that he likes as he pleases, and without limits. Buy again meaning."

"Love your heart?! That's amazing Arthur. Can it really happen?"

"Calm down, leave it to me."

"I'll be looking forward to it. Maybe I'll wear it every day."

In the midst of our conversation, we realized that we were already in front of the merchant association.

The place was as crowded as ever, some were out and some were in.

We climbed dozens of stairs to the entrance. Upon entering, we were treated to the breadth of this place, like a large hall. We went straight to the stairs and went up to the second floor.

The ladderkeeper seemed to know us, he let us up the stairs.

From above, the people below looked like a bunch of little ants walking around without direction. We're focused on the entrance to Mr. Meinhard's room.

A few steps, we arrived at his door. The door looked different to the other door on the second floor, it looked so majestic, therefore I knew what happened yesterday.

Noland knocked on the door, asking permission to enter. A male voice appeared, telling us that we could enter.

Noland immediately opened the door, just as it had been yesterday.

Warm air blew from inside the room, with a tall and dashing man near the window with a beautiful view of the city.

"Good morning Mr.Meinhard!" sapaku and Noland.

"Ah you came in time" said Mr.Meinhard as he walked closer to us.

He still wears his trademark coat, a little flashy and elegant.

"Mr.Meinhard, I have successfully spoken to Miss Evelyn. He was a little interested and planned to come later to the perfume factory" I said with a bit of pride.

"Evely... Really true?! Thank goodness if so. You are indeed reliable. So today we have to convince him to cooperate with us."

"Really Mr.Meinhard! Evelyn will come later in the afternoon" said Noland complete the information.

"Our afternoon, that's a good time! Hows it? are we leaving now?" asked Mr.Meinhard to ask our opinion.

Noland and I looked at each other, and I answered.

"By Mr.Meinhard. I can't wait to do it."

"I agree too!" noland said excitedly.

"Well then, let's follow me."

Mr.Meinhard started walking in front of us, We followed him from behind.

After Mr. Meinhard closed and locked the door of his room, he walked to the left of his room, away from the stairs we had been climbing.

Mr. Meinhard walked gallantly with his ideal body guiding us both.

Mr. Meinhard stopped at the door of a room. He opened it, seemingly unlocked from the start. We went in after.

In it, this room does not look like a room for someone to work. Except the room made for the passage to the stairs.

Right, this room contains stairs to go to the bottom, to the ground floor.

The entire room was illuminated by many lanterns placed on the wall.

A voice sounded from under the stairs.

Mr.Meinhard went down the stairs, we went behind him.

Sure enough, at the bottom of the stairs it turns out there are people who look like employees in the trade association. I don't know what they're dealing with.

When they found out Mr. Meinhard was around them, they immediately lowered their heads and greeted Mr. Meinhard politely and gently. Mr.Meinhard replied to them gently anyway.

Mr. Meinhard is still going.

Up ahead, I can see the light. That might be the way out of this room.

Right guess. We have now arrived at the outer terrace of the Merchant Association, at the back of it.

At the back of the Merchant Association, there was a spacious courtyard, containing well-preserved plants.

We went down using a few stairs.

This courtyard had been partially covered with rocks, just like the streets in the city.

In front of me I saw a horse-drawn carriage waiting for us. A very luxurious horse carriage, very different from the horse carriage we used to go here.

"That's the vehicle that's going to take us to the factory" Mr. Meinhard said.

"We're using a horse carriage? is that place far away?" ask Noland curiously.

"Not really," replied Mr. Meinhard.

Mr. Meinhard opened the horse-drawn carriage door and entered it.

"So ken was"

Before Noland continued asking, I placed my hand on his shoulder.

"It's Noland... Just follow it," I said.

"All right."

Noland who was in front of me started to open the door and went inside.

Next it was my turn to enter.

Everyone got into the horse carriage.

Mr. Meinhard started to lock the door and hinted to the horse driver that we were ready.

The horse carriage began to walk.

......................

Ever since the horse carriage started walking, Noland glanced at the window, enjoying the ride.

I was too.

I looked like I was admiring the view of the road we were walking, but I was actually memorizing the path we were going through, but I didn't think it would be easy to remember.

"Mr.Meinhard are all the ingredients I asked for ready there?" many ensure.

"You can trust me" replied Mr. Meinhard confidently.

"The stuff you asked for. Where do you know such ingredients?" asked Mr.Meinhard a little suspiciously.

"That stuff I found while accidentally mixing up some things, and so I found out about it from a book in the library," I replied.

The question I've been answering all day, it seems convincing.

"Oh, you're very attractive."

"Thank you Mr. Meinhard."

Noland continued to look at the window.

There are several horse-drawn carriages on this road as well.

The road we were on now was huge, allowing horse carriages and pedestrians to pass through it simultaneously.

The train turns left towards the edge of the city.

In the right window, there are still typical buildings of the city. While in the left window, there is a view of a vast expanse of green grass, with several dance performances there.

The train goes back to the inner part of the city.

A little while later, the horse carriage stopped in front of somewhere.

"We have reached the place we are referring to" Mr. Meinhard told us both.

He pointed to the right of the Jedela. Me and Noland reflexively looked towards the point.

"Woah.." said Noland.

The place was bigger than I expected, but not as big as the Merchant Association building.

This place doesn't look like a factory, it's more like a house with a garage. Small Factory.

"We actually have a bigger factory than this, but for now, we're going to use this factory first" Mr. Meinhard said.

"Heh?! is there something bigger?!" noland said in disbelief.

"It's okay Mr. Meinhard, this is more than enough" I said.

Mr.Meinhard started to open the lock, and opened the door.

Mr.Meinhard came out first, with us following him from behind.

I stretched my body and filled my lungs with fresh air.

Mr.Meinhard walked towards the driver of the horse carriage, and said something.

The driver nodded and pulled off the horse carriage we were riding.

Mr.Meinhard walked back towards us.

"Let's go in," asked Mr.Meinhard.

"Good!" answer us both.

Mr.Meinhard smiled and walked towards the warehouse door.

I and Noland stared at each other, I nodded lightly to Noland.

With that, Noland walked in front of me with great joy.

Right now, it is the initial stage of the plan we prepared to save the Tiatus family.

To this day, everything is still fine.

I walked behind them both.

Mr.Meinhard looks like he's doing something on the big door of the factory, and making it suddenly move.

The doors of the large factory began to open.

Slowly came a noise from inside the factory.

Just like the factory in general.
