The experienced alchemist told Lanchester with an excited look that the expert alchemist lady who had brought him here had given them a lesson on alchemy which was extremely easy to understand but very profound at the same time. So even the inexperienced ones were able to learn a lot from that and were trying to master the teaching with practical practice.
Lanchester was surprised and asked who this expert alchemist lady was. He had a guess in mind but he wanted to be sure. And he was answered that it was a golden haired demon lady named Elena. It was exactly what Lanchester had expected as she was the only lady with whom he had interacted on this day.
When Lanchester was telling her about his troubles, he was glad that she was there to listen to his grumbling. Those were not something that he could share with his friends or family, so he was grateful that she was willing to humour him by listening to him.
