Chapter 71: The Custom-Made Origin Aphrodisiac

However, she was an Ice Mage. Using a bit of magic energy, she easily suppressed that burning feeling. Maybe this is just how the potion is.

Elena asked curiously, "Do you want to find someone to test it on first?"

Nanako thought for a moment and said seriously, "True. But let's use our Winterspring Mages for the experiment. Don't use the residents. If something goes wrong, it will be hard to handle."

Elena stood straight immediately. "En en! Lady Nanako, Elena will go call them now!!"

After speaking. Elena grabbed her staff and rushed out of the Alchemy Workshop.

Watching Elena leave. Nanako let out a breath, feeling happy and satisfied. Her ahoge danced briskly, showing her slightly smug mood.

Although it consumed a lot of her mana, the fulfilling feeling of accomplishing something was very comfortable! If the potion really worked, everyone's curse would be lifted soon.

Nanako hummed a tune, shouldered her staff, and locked the main door. It won't be too late to test the potion after Elena brings her companions.

As for herself... Of course, she would take a nap~

Saying that. Nanako walked satisfied toward the inner room, closed the door click, and flopped onto the bed in the lounge. Soon, the sound of contented breathing filled the room. zZZ...

[ Time Passed... ]

Just then.

Click—— A very slight sound of a lock being picked.

Faintly, a semi-transparent Thief slowly stepped into Nanako's Alchemy Workshop. He looked around vigilantly, his gaze landing on the door where Nanako was resting.

Nanako: "zZZ..."

Sweet breathing sounds came from the inner room. He sneered. He turned his head, his gaze focusing on the freshly brewed potion in the cauldron.

"So this is the potion that can lift the curse!"

Sure enough, stupid Mages. Leaving such an important thing here without any vigilance. They really have no fear!

"Since that's the case, I'll help myself!"

He sneered and took out a special container. Then he carefully collected every drop of the potion from the cauldron.

But as soon as he opened the lid, a strange fragrance assaulted his face. He looked confused.

"Is this really a potion? Why does it feel a bit wrong?"

He didn't know why. He suddenly felt his body burning up.

"Whatever. Take it first!"

[ Thirty Minutes Later ]

Knock. Knock. Knock. Knocking sounds came from outside the door.

In the inner room, Nanako woke up with a start, rubbed her bleary eyes, and looked left and right.

"Eh... Are they here already?"

She yawned. Dragging her sleepy body, she walked out of the inner room and opened the main door.

Instantly, Elena, Lynn, and the pig-transformed mages appeared in front of her.

"Good afternoon, Master." Lynn smiled, tossing a pistachio into his mouth.

The pigs greeted her: (～￣(OO)￣)ブ "Oink!"

[ Inner Voice ] [ Sure enough, she came here secretly behind her disciple's back to brew the potion—looking at this, Master has already succeeded. ]

[ Inner Voice ] [ There's definitely nothing wrong with the recipe. My recipe, even thousands of years ago, was a top-tier potion. ]

[ Inner Voice ] [ Even a Stupid Loli like Master can easily master it. Hehehehe... ]

Ding! Nanako’s ahoge stood straight up.

Hmph. Hearing her disciple's inner voice, Nanako blushed, crossed her arms, and turned her head away tsundere-ly.

Re... Really... Why did Disciple come too! If Disciple is here, Nanako can't say some smug words.

Um... well... As for that evil title "Stupid Loli", I'll forgive you temporarily. After all, without Disciple's recipe, lifting the curse would be a headache. If it really works, I'm willing to make some delicious cakes to reward Disciple later.

"Master, where is the potion you brewed?" Lynn chuckled. "Let them try the effect first. If it works, we can lift the curse for the residents."

Nanako immediately walked briskly to the alchemy furnace. A smile appeared on her face. She grabbed the lid.

"It's right here! Nanako brewed a lot, definitely enough!"

Then she lifted the lid, closing her eyes, the corner of her mouth curling up cutely, ready to listen to everyone's praise.

"..."

"..."

Brief silence. Elena and the pigs stood there, stunned.

"Deacon Nanako... um..."

"What's wrong?" Nanako tilted her head.

"Did you put the potion somewhere else? Or..." Elena asked in shock.

Nanako touched her head in confusion, then looked subconsciously into the container.

Nanako: (ΩДΩ)!!!

"Where is my potion?! Nanako's 'Great Success' potion!! It's gone! Why is it gone?!"

[ Meanwhile: The Church ]

Marshall stroked his beard with a sneer, looking at the bottle of liquid emitting a faint purple halo in his hand. He shook it gently. A mesmerizing brilliance emerged.

"Is this the potion that can lift the curse?"

Turning his head, looking at the respectful spy and the glowing potion, Marshall was extremely satisfied. He was very happy that his subordinate completed the task so efficiently.

"You did well!" Marshall praised.

"With these potions, we should be able to turn the cursed people in our Church back. Did those Mages notice you?"

The spy bowed respectfully. "No, Lord Marshall. Everything went very smoothly. No one noticed it was our Church's doing!"

Marshall laughed loudly, extremely proud.

For their Church. Mastering this first-hand potion meant they could explore the burning ruins deeper. To explore the Volcanic Ruins this time, the Church sent two Archbishop-level figures.

And now. Lord Augustus, Commander of the Templar Knights, was stationed near the ruins with his powerful Knight Order. If this potion really worked, it would definitely help Lord Augustus! And for him, it would be a great merit.

"Quick! Go to the back hall. Let's test if this potion really has such magical effects! Hahahaha!"

[ Alchemist Guild ]

"It's over! It's over!" Nanako (ΩДΩ) grabbed her twin-tails.

"It was clearly here just now! Nanako just took a small nap! How is there not a drop left when I woke up?!"

Lynn: "..."

[ Inner Voice ] [ What else could it be? Definitely targeted by someone... ]

[ Inner Voice ] [ So why am I not surprised at all? Also, with Loli Master's vigilance, this is absolutely normal. ]

[ Inner Voice ] [ Just like how I openly take a few gold coins from her stash every day, and Loli Master never notices. ]

[ Inner Voice ] [ But it doesn't matter. This potion isn't worth anything. If we want, we can brew tons of it anytime. ]

On the other side. Elena didn't give up. Staring wide-eyed, she hugged the big alchemy furnace and shook it hard upside down.

Finally. Under her focused gaze. One drop of potion fell into the cup. Drip.

"There is a drop! One drop left!" Elena stared, holding the cup. "No matter what, let them try the effect first. If it really works, even one drop should..."

The pigs immediately opened their mouths, scrambling to get close. They really had enough of being pigs!!

But just as Elena was about to test it on them.

Lynn suddenly froze. His gaze was instantly attracted by the unusual color of the potion.

Why do the color and smell feel a bit... wrong?

"Wait!"

Lynn walked over doubtfully and took the cup. Sniffed it. Frowned slightly. Poked it. Feels familiar.

He dipped his finger in a little and licked it.

Instantly, Lynn stiffened in place.

[ Inner Voice ] [ Th... This fcking is... ]*
