By then, more than two-thirds of the mixed juice made from one white fruit and one blue fruit had already been used.
He didn't know whether the remaining juice would be enough, so he felt a little nervous. But it turned out he didn't need nearly that much! As soon as he poured the mixture into the alchemy array, the final fusion began. At this point, the two cups
