21 Chapter: 14

(Evan POV) :

[So let me get this straight. You're the only ones who know that there is a use for fallen stars and no one else knows anything about it. And you don't want anyone to know about it...because?] (Me)

[Finding fallen star is hard enough and with rivals, finding them would be near impossible.] (Oswald)

Oswald and Lucy were sitting in seiza in front of me.

[Sure but I still need 50 fallen stars.] (Me)

That way I can Max out my Mana. And I need some for future use.

They both looked hesitant about it.

[The thing is that we also need it. The Elf kingdom has requested tons of Mana potions for their mages. It's because of the festival that will happen over there soon.] (Oswald)

[Hmm then how about 24?] (Me)

[E-Eighteen! Please] (Lucy)

[Fine, I'll take them.] (Me)

[T-Three silver each.] (Lucy)

I nodded and Oswald got the stars from the chest and gave it to me. I also gave 54 silver coins.

I went towards the alchemist table and started making the potions.

6 Mana crystals: Permanently increases Mana by 20.

5 Swiftness potions: increases movement speed by 25% for 2 min

5 iron skin: potions increases defense by 8 points for 4 min

5 Regeneration potions: increase life Regen for 4 min

50 lesser health potions.

Alright, buff potions, Check. Now all I need is better armor and then I'll be set.

[Okay, I'm all done.] (Me)

[That was quick. What did you even make?] (Lucy)

[Hm? Well I used my crafting list, why?] (Me)

[Crafting list? What's that?] (Lucy)

Don't they have it?

[Uh nothing I was just talking to myself.] (Me)

[Weirdo, so what did you make?] (Lucy)

[These 2 potions.] I took out an iron skin potion and a Swiftness Potion. The reason I took these 2 out was that no matter how I look at it I can't just take out 70 different potions and say that I made them in an instant without the crafting list.

Lucy started to look at these potions from every angle.

[I don't.....know them? There's no way I don't know Them!?] (Lucy)

[Woah calm down it's just an iron skin potion and a Swiftness potion.] (Me)

[What are......those potions?] Lucy looked very shocked. Is not knowing two potions that big of a deal?

[Don't worry Sensei! Even if you don't know about 2 potions you still hold the first place by knowing how to make 8 different types of Potions!!] (Oswald)

What are they talking about now?..... But...

[Just 8? I know how to make like 50 different potions.] (Me)

Lucy looked like her heart was pierced and fell on the ground.

[SENSEI!!!] Oswald ran up to her.

Is it that big of a deal? I need to learn to keep my mouth shut.

[..........ple] Lucy said something in a really quiet voice that I couldn't hear. And Oswald looked petrified.

[Please Make me your Disciple!] Lucy looked up with stars in her eyes.

Woah, you change gears way too fast.

[No.] (Me)

Now Lucy was petrified.

[WHY!?] (Lucy)

Because I don't know how to teach. The crafting list does everything for me..... As if I would say that.

[Because I'm busy with my work right now. Maybe some other time.] (Me)

[T-Then where can I Find You!?] (Lucy)

[Hm? I'm usually near the Adventurers guild.] (Me)

[T-Then I'll meet you there Tonight!] (Lucy)

I really need to learn to keep my mouth shut.

[W-Wait Sensei! What about the Mana potions for the Elf Kingdom!?] (Oswald)

Oswald and Lucy were having their talk while I was thinking about how to fix this Problem. I can't teach! I don't know how! And it's not like if I think that I want to teach Lucy how to make a healing potion and it will happen!?

*Do you want to teach Lucy on how to make a Healing potion?*

Why didn't you tell me that sooner!? And No for now.

[Okay guys, you do your thing I have to go and I don't know how long I will stay at the Adventurers guild so if you want me to teach you Lucy, then come today.] (Me)

[YES! SHISHO!] Lucy said with stars in her eyes.

[Wait Sensei! What about the Mana potions!?] (Oswald)

[Listen Oswald. You remember all the training I gave you right? I'm going to give you a mission to make these potions. If you succeed then I will teach you how to craft a regeneration potion.] (Lucy)

[Y-YES! Sensei! I won't let you down!]

..... He's actually quite easy.

I left them quickly and headed towards the Adventurers Guild.

On the way, I also used the 6 mana crystals I had and now I had 8 Mana stars.

Mana:(160/160)

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I need to develop a plan with Liza on how to catch these Cultists. We still have Lenard and maybe Liza got more info out of him.

I was walking towards the guild then I noticed a completely hooded person following me.

Cultists?

It's probably them. No one else is this shady. I went towards a lone alleyway which had a dead end and drunk an invisibility potion. It made me invisible.

The suspicious person came here and was shocked to see I wasn't there. He looked around for me.

I sneaked behind him and did a karate chop to his neck.

*Skill unlocked: Sleeping chop*

Sleeping chop: when the target is unaware of your presence then using this will make them go to sleep.

Duration: 2 min

Mana cost: 20 MP

Cooldown: instant

He didn't faint and quickly looked behind. Thankfully I was invisible and I sneaked to his behind again and used the Sleeping chop on him again. he collapsed this time.

I took his hood off and......he is also a she. With pointy ears and long straight black hair with an Amber colored pin on the top of her head.

She's an Elf?

I took out some rope and tied her arm and legs firmly.

I took out a water bottle and threw water at her face and she woke up.

[W-What?] (???)

I did my very best intimidating face and asked.

[Who are you and why were you Following Me!?]

*Skill unlocked: Intimidation*

Intimidation: consume 2 Mana per second to intimidate the target and inflict fear. Effects increase with an intimidating face and voice.

lovely timing.

She remained quiet with a resolute face.

*Target casted air voice*

(Hm? What's that?)

Air voice: can be used to speak with someone telepathically

Wait, hold on. That means their reinforcements are coming!

I immediately used intimidation And made my best intimidating face and talked in a very intimidating voice. A black aura started seeping out of me

[Listen here. If you're not gonna talk then I will make you talk.] (Me)

I made an evil face.

[I won't kill you, but I will cripple you. I will first break your fingers Then I will cut off your tongue. So no one will hear your scream then I'll cut your legs off and feed them to the monsters while having you watch it ALL! AND THEN ILL R*** YOU! BUT I WON'T KILL YOU! ILL GIVE YOU A FATE MUCH MUCH WORSE THEN DEATH! HAHAHAHAHAHA!] (Me)

Holy Shit. What is wrong with me? I don't actually mean any of it I just need her to talk in any way I knew of so I acted like the evilest guy I knew of.

I started to smell something very smelly. I just noticed but there was a yellow puddle coming from beneath the girl.

Don't tell me...

I looked at the girl's face and she was crying a lot.

[Pleaze *sob* pleze forgve me. *Sob*] (woman)

What!? What the hell happened to your "I will yield to no one" Face!?

Scary! Intimidation Is Way Too Scary!!

[Reid.......what are you doing?] (Luna)

I heard Luna voice from behind and I would've loved hearing that voice, but right now it sounded colder than ice.

[L-Luna, Q-Quick help me console her. It's a misunderstanding.] (Me)

[Were you going to... R*pe her?] Luna looked at me with really cold eyes.

[N-No!] (Me)

[SOMEONE SAVE ME PLEASE!! *Sob*

I DONT WANT TO BE R*PED!!] The elf cried out and Luna looked at me with even colder eyes.

I started sweating balls

[WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING TO TIFAAAA!?!?] (???)

[WHERE THE HELL DID YOU POP OUT FROM!?] (ME)

This is the end for me.
