"I will... Attempt to teach you. It could not waste too much time, after all." She leads you back deeper into the library, into a small, quiet study with a bed...
--- Hours Pass ---
"... And so I have determined that you have the magical potential of a clod of dirt." Patchouli finishes after a particularly frustrating amount of time. You sigh, relatively disappointed, and she looks over at you with what appears to be slight pity. "Look, I will give you something to supplement your pathetic weakness..." She reaches back into a chest at the foot of the bed, hacking into her sleeve as she pulls out a small necklace. "Older amulet, designed by an expert artificer."

"Consider it a charm against most youkai. Only those who you wish to can even approach you. Keep in mind, however, this doesn't protect against long distance attacks, but most of the younger and lesser youkai are either foolish enough to attack in melee combat or incapable of using long ranged attacks. Very uncivilized." She sniffs. "Either way, this should allow you to travel somewhat freely. Is that not what you wanted?" She inquired, sitting on the bed. Now that you can see it, the amulet is made on a thin, light blue string with a iolite gem as it's pendant, set in silver. It appears to faintly glow a deep indigo color.

She is a master elementalist. She knows your limitations and would think you are arrogant, stubborn, and stupid for refusing it.

There is no romance in calling her by such a formal name. Also, asking questions about magical items will only confuse you, and she will be forced to talk down to you to explain.
[ ] "I couldn't possibly take that."
Possibilities. This forces into her acknowledging your presence and she will realize that she is helping you, which is strange for her to do.

She's giving the us the easy way out because she wants to see how much we really want to learn magic. She's a woman, she really wants us to learn magic, and eventually surpass her so she can have a husbando. This is how women work, trust me.

If you took it, you wouldn't have to worry about youkai in the forest and so could actually get to Alice on your own.
As for no more random encounters, that is a good point. But its already Day 3, which is a little late in the game to be worrying about that.
Don't reject Patchi. She is giving you this out of her own kindness. She will see it as you being spoiled and snubbing her kindness. If you want to reject it, say "But this must be something old and precious to you. I couldn't possibly take it."

5) Pick mushrooms with Cirno
6) See Marisa, apologize, ask her to go to Kouridou with you, while Cirno is busy tripping balls.
7) Search for inhaler/nasal spray. Have Marisa steal it for you in exchange for shrooms.
8) Retrieve Cirno, head to Keine's
9) Cook magic mushroom omelets for everyone
11) Have Mokou guide you to Eientei with Cirno. Apologize. Ask Eirin if the inhaler can be filled with an anti-asthmatic. Also an iron supplement.
