Oh, a confession…? O-oh, I think I know what’s going on here. It seems that someone has taken it upon themselves to get Ramos to admit his feelings for…P-perhaps I’ve said too much.

Though, I am worried for Ramos. He’s likely to be quite upset. I would go and see him, however…he’s likely to want to, um, have some time to himself for a while.

Thank you so very much for your hard work everyone. No trouble, I hope? I’ll be sure to give the flowers to Shiki immediately.

I wonder what he’s planning to do with those. Something romantic for Gerald, perhaps. I’ve asked him and he refuses to say anything. Ah, it’s fine. Let the man keep his secrets.

Anyway, thanks again for your help, Helios. I’ll deliver them to Shiki now. 

Oh, Helios, thank you so much for agreeing to participate! Shiki says as many flowers possible would be ideal. So I imagine 12 would indeed be enough.

Thank you again for participating in Shiki’s request.

To be completely honest, after yesterday’s debacle, I’m a little worried about the rest of the recipes as well. But Hamza and Mahogany wish for me to continue so we know for certain what kind of information and ultimately recipes that these books contains.

I do understand what they mean, in a way. What if there are other copies of this book? What if someone else is willing to use these recipes for their own gains? In order to counter any potential threat, we need to know what we’re dealing with.

Ever since that hex plague…

O-oh, it’s a rather embarrassing story.

You see, I found some books hidden at the hospital library. Not even Dr Stiles knew of them and he wanted me to investigate them to see if they could be useful…or learn why they were hidden.

One tonic called the Mint Attraction Potion was described to “lure the enemy to distraction”. I assumed it meant luring FOEs and monsters, but it appears to lure in anyone who catches the scent of the potion.

I had crafted the potion in the tea room…with an open window…

Axel and the others immediately jumped to the conclusion that something untoward was occurring, and they were ready to…come out swinging, as they would say.

I honestly have no idea where they all came from. They also all appeared to be in a trance of some kind. Not necessarily by a curse or hex. I couldn’t detect what it was that lured them in, so the potion is the only logical answer. After the scent fade, though, they seemed to come to their senses and appeared to be suffering from a mild case of amnesia.
