Зелье предательства

Becoming a magician is very simple. You need to have a lot, unimaginably a lot of money to pay a master who will teach you the intricate art of potion-making. I never allowed myself to dream of such a future, but when the opportunity arose, I immediately seized it. Now I am a pawn in the Game of Magicians, an apprentice to one of the five best masters. Besides me, my mentor has another pawn - Aisha. She is beautiful, familiar with high-ranking officials, excellent with a knife, and cannot read. The master says that Aisha and I are rivals, but he trains us together and teaches us to interact. I think that Aisha and I should help each other in the Game. Aisha is convinced that we will be the fiercest opponents. After all, in reality, only one has a future.
