This kind of swordsmanship was known for its' complicated, beautiful, and difficult to learn. 'Although it was called a swordsmanship by many people, it was more like a unique dance. But if one could learn it well, it would be an extremely high level swordsmanship.
It could even be used as a stepping stone to gain the recognition of an important figure in the royal family.
Thus, just like the symbol of the upper class, this swordsmanship was sought after by the nobles and even the ladies of the various families. Its range of circulation was also limited to the upper class.
Even with Gör's identity as a Navy Captain, when he explained the swordsmanship to Elvin, he did not take out the full set of inheritance. He only gave a rough explanation of the swordsmanship's characteristics and how to deal with it.
In Elvin's view.
A thief with an extraordinary background and proficient in the 'Palace Swordsmanship' had run to the Navy supply ship to steal something. There was no need to think about it to know that it would involve a very troublesome matter. If this fellow was caught, it would only be more troublesome!
Thus, Elvin directly chose to not see it.
"Why don't you let me see what this guy stole?" He could not help but be curious. For someone like 'Zorro' to personally steal something, it would definitely not be something ordinary.
He opened the black cloth bag to take a look.
The bag did not look small, but it did not contain precious cultivation resources or treasures like Elvin had imagined. Instead, it was tightly wrapped in layers of cloth.
"What is going on? Does stealing need to be wrapped in so many layers?"
After Elvin tore open the layers of black cloth and the tough kraft paper, he finally found a flat wooden box at the innermost part of the box.
After destroying the small lock on the wooden box, Elvin was finally able to see the true appearance of this mysterious stolen goods.
It was a book with a black leather cover, but from the outside, it was somewhat disappointing. The unassuming old cover even had some colorful dyes on it, as if it had been picked up from a garbage dump.
"A broken book?"
Elvin felt that he could not see through that strange 'Zorro'.
He had personally taken a huge risk to go to the navy's supply ship. He didn't steal the precious potions in the warehouse, the high-end pocket watches for the officers, and the military pay. Instead, he stole this strange book. Either Zorro's brain had a problem, or there was definitely a problem with this book!
Thus, Elvin felt that there must be some secret behind it. He decided to first hide this book and see what the reaction of the supply ship would be before deciding what to do with it.
He threw away all the trivial 'wrappers' and only used a black cloth to wrap the book in his bosom.
"Boss, how was it? Did you catch that thief?" As soon as they returned to the military port, a group of marines gathered around them. Gary, who had sobered up from his drunkenness by the cool breeze, was the first to ask.
"He got away." Elvin shook his head. He wasn't lying.
At this time, he noticed that the supply ship was brightly lit. It seemed that the marines on duty had also noticed that something was wrong.
"Boss, the people on the supply ship just came down. They should have gone back to check the warehouse. I'll go and tell them that we didn't catch the thief. They can't blame us for this. "Noticing Elvin's gaze, Gary explained.
"Okay, you cooperate with them here. If they find something missing, don't forget to tell me."
"Don't worry boss." Gary thought that Elvin was just curious like him and didn't think too much about it.
.....
After returning to his rented house, Elvin couldn't sleep for a while. He turned on the gas lamp and took out the book from his bosom. He sat in front of the desk and started flipping through it.
After gently flipping through two pages, Elvin realized that this was actually a potion notebook. In order to run the potion shop in Leopold, Elvin had already learned potion from Grandpa Elvin. He even obtained a potion master certificate. Combined with the medical knowledge from his previous life, Elvin wasn't an outsider to potion studies.
"Improved painkiller, diarrhea medicine, hemostasis ointment …"
According to his experience, although most of the potions were good, they could only cure some minor ailments of ordinary people. The grade was similar to the "live fish potion" invented by Grandpa Leo.
It had some value, but it was definitely not worth the trouble of Mr. "Zorro" who came from an extraordinary background to steal it.
For the time being, he didn't find anything special. Therefore, Elvin looked at the improved potion in front with great interest. As a registered potion master, the wonderful ideas revealed in the various improved potion formulas were also very attractive to him.
After all, potion studies were also very useful knowledge in this era. Elvin and Butler Leo used to live a good life in Leopold with this skill. He didn't want to completely abandon it.
Moreover, the three cornerstones of the Knight's path, "breathing technique, swordsmanship, potion", were also closely related to potion studies. He had even collected most of the raw materials for the "Black Sea Potion" used for advancement and was ready to make the finished product himself.
At this time, he couldn't neglect potion studies.

The pages turned. As Elvin was fascinated by the book, the flame of the gas lamp on the table gradually weakened and then suddenly disappeared completely. The room then fell into darkness.
"Damn it, the gas lamp ran out of fuel at this time. Forget it, I'll go to sleep first. I'll read it tomorrow. " The small accident interrupted Elvin's interest in reading. He found that it was very late. Even if the Silver Wing didn't have any mission in the next few days, he still had to get up early to practice.
He put the potion notes back on the table. When he was about to get up and close the curtains, he suddenly found that a page of the notes reflected the cold and weak moonlight under the moonlight coming in from outside the window.
"Plop!" Elvin's heart beat violently. He felt that he might have discovered the hidden secret of this book.
He carefully opened the glowing page. In the blank space where the potion formula was originally written, a few lines of light blue words quietly emerged.
However, this line of words wasn't written in the common language of the Tulip Alliance. Instead, it was written in a transcendent language known as "Spirit Text" or "Carthaginian."
This was an ancient language that had existed since Transcendent knowledge was circulated in the world. Some people said that it was the language of the gods, while others said that it was the language of the ancient civilization of the last era.
Even the most knowledgeable scholars couldn't determine the true origin of this language. However, the strange power that existed in this language was real.
Because of this, it was also the unified language used by the Transcendent world in various countries on the continent to record Transcendent powers.
Elvin, who was born in an orthodox family of Transcendent Knight, naturally received the relevant education. This was also one of the reasons why he was proficient in grammar in his skills panel.
"A new kind of potion? Developing Potion? "
Although it was a potion formula recorded in Carthaginian, Elvin didn't dare to underestimate it. After all, if it was recorded in a transcendent language, even if it wasn't at the Transcendent level, it couldn't be simple.
Thinking of the strange changes in the notes under the moonlight, Elvin guessed that as long as he could concoct the Developing Potion, he would have the key to uncovering the deeper secrets of this book.
"What a pity!"
The formula wasn't complicated, and the raw materials needed were relatively common. Unfortunately, Elvin didn't have any of them on hand.
He could only carefully put away the notebook and go to bed with anticipation. He decided to go to the pharmacy early the next morning to buy the raw materials to concoct the potion. Otherwise, he wouldn't be in the mood to do anything else.
