William finished making the potion with all the ingredients. He made no mistakes and extracted five potions from each set, which was an excellent success rate, but would have left a lot of profit in his pocket. Of course, this mission had a reward, and that reward was one hundred soul stones.Besides the reward, he only had to give the mission giver one bottle of the potion he had made. In this room, he had fourteen bottles of potion left. Moreover, since he had bought the formula, he could say it was very profitable. Of course, not every potion experiment would be as successful as this one. Most potion formulas had missing ingredients, and it certainly wouldn't be that easy.On the twentieth day, William finished preparing all the potions and pocketed fourteen paralyzing potions. An hour later, he met with the Cabal and gave them the potion and the scroll containing the formula. After the Cabal smiled happily and confirmed that the transaction was complete, he left.There was enough
William had a smile on his face as he walked out the door. Normally, such helpless people looked like two-dimensional characters in his eyes. He thought that he would probably never see the two people he helped again in his lifetime. He felt that as one of the ordinary side quests, just like in the games, it would stay in a corner of his brain as a daily, mundane event.But his thoughts changed the next day when he went to do another potion mission. Mura and his wife Elle, who had learned her name that day, were waiting for him in front of the obelisk. They had invited William to dinner and wanted to be friends. William couldn't say no, and they soon became friends. In fact, in just a few days, friendship deepened much faster than William expected.William learned a lot from Elle in particular. He was an apprentice who had excelled in the arrays. The two made a perfect pair, as Mura was also very skilled in combat. Elle was especially good at sequences that could trap enemies, restric
" Master, I have come to ask for help."William's words stirred something in Alyna. Her always fixed and expressionless face melted with William's words." Pft ... Hahahahahahahahahaha!" At first, she tried to hold back, but after a while, she couldn't and burst out laughing. After a while she continued to laugh, holding her stomach.He couldn't understand her condition and her sudden smile, but soon he was ashamed to understand the reason."So it finally occurred to you that you have a master." After Alyna stopped laughing and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, she spoke. William acted as if he were a nominal disciple whom she saw once in a while. However, he could ask most questions freely. She knew that William knew that, but she didn't understand why he was so distant and aloof, especially lately.Erika and Zion, spent time here all the time, asking questions freely.William soon felt a little embarrassed. He tilted his head slightly and spoke in a lower voice."Sorry,
William looked at Zion after Zion's confession and showed a disgusted expression."He rolled his eyes again and said, "I'm not interested in men.Zion immediately tried to rectify the situation. "No, no, I didn't mean it like that...""Please, let's end this conversation now. I told you, I'm not interested in men." William raised a hand and waved it from side to side, showing he wasn't interested in body language either. William was joking, of course. To pursue the subject would make Zion even angrier, and that would make him even more amused."Oh no, I am misunderstood. I said that because you acquired this potion formula." Zion spoke with a helpless look on his face. He even approached and tried to get his hand close to William's shoulder, but William took a few steps back." Hahahaha, I'm kidding. It's not important. As apprentice brothers, we must help each other."Although those words came out of William's mouth, his heart thought otherwise. The value of the two was incomparable,
Time passed much faster than William had expected. Moreover, contrary to his expectations, it took him nine months to finish all the books in the library. The ability to read faster and understand what he had acquired after becoming a mage was at a level that amazed him.Of course, during this time, he not only read books but also made his life more organized and continued his daily training. As for his meditation, he showed a more practical and faster growth since he switched to the Crimson Flame Meditation Technique. At that time, he was at the peak of the apprentice rank.Today, he had just come from his master Alyna. The reason he went to Alyna was because of the [Virgin's Desire] potion, which pushed him into this period of self-correction. In the process, he gave her everything he had learned about this potion, the materials he had developed, and all his theories in a small book.Alyna was delighted to see this, and after a quick glance, she looked at William in disbelief. Willi
"I want to talk to you..." These words came out of Seren's mouth in a deep voice.William was not a cruel person. Seren wasn't a bad person to him either. It was indeed worth a try, but he was hesitant to get close to her because he couldn't be with her all the time and wanted to chase his dreams. Still, he felt that maybe he should have the last conversation between them and accept Seren's offer."Sure, we can talk as much as you want." William kept a smile on his face.Seren was happy to hear William's words and stood up, wiping the corners of her eyes. "I don't want to talk here.""A-Alright." William agreed and they began to walk together.Seren came out of the castle and came to the edge of the small lake.There were no clouds in the sky today. Only stars and a big moon. Seren came to the edge of the lake and bent down to pick up a stick from the ground. Then she walked a few meters and came to a place where there was no mud. Then she crouched down and began to play with the stic
When William arrived in the town, he was suddenly convinced that it was an ordinary town. It was what he saw that made him think so.He saw children and old beggars in the streets, rich fat merchants, ordinary working people, farmers, blacksmiths, tailors, hunters with bows, and a few mages. The reason he was able to spot these mages was because they wandered freely with magic pressure. William wasn't like that.He used a method that also suppressed his spiritual power, including the breathing technique of the Sleeping Tortoise. This way, he didn't want people to suddenly think that he was a mage. He didn't want people to judge him based on whether he was a mage or not.The merchant walked on without stopping and came to a large restaurant that was located up the hill in a side street of the square. This restaurant was located on a corner and had three floors. At that time, there were bards on the upper two floors, and only the lower floor, where the bards were supposed to be, was emp
'I wonder?' William thought, raising an eyebrow. 'I wonder if this Garry has taken control of the meeting point?'It was the most logical thought that came to William's mind. If Garry Blackfinger had done such a thing and taken over the meeting point, William would have faced hundreds of enemies, not just one. William thought that the chances of this happening were very high. He couldn't think of any other explanation.He put those thoughts aside for now, and after deciding to follow these people, he picked up his guitar again and continued playing, but he had just finished a song when the mages in the meeting state above decided to get up and visit the leader at the meeting point.William had another hour or so of work ahead of him. Knowing the meeting point, he decided to follow them later. Besides, the entrance to the meeting point was free. As long as you gave a soul stone, you could enter freely. It didn't matter if he was some tower's apprentice.The group of eighteen left the r
