459 A potion to grow stronger in a short time

Vincent, Kazumi, and Lilith sweated bullets. This subject was on their minds for an entire week. However, it was different than they thought. Instead of the lamia kingdom, their classmate mentioned the Selos kingdom.

“The Selos Kingdom, you say? My precious student. Hmm. Let me think of a suitable answer because this is a ~rumor~ after all.”

“I believe this rumor stems from the information circulating in the academy about the Selos kingdom not participating in the yearly grand noble academy tournament held in the dwarven lands, the Molten Rock kingdom, correct? If so, then the possibility is questionable, yet it sounds dangerous to think about it.”

“Students, as you all know, many high-ranking nobles will go to see the tournament. Thus, even if it is a rumor, our hearts will not stop worrying about this subject.”

The Lusterfall kingdom, the Berlucia kingdom, the Elvenguard kingdom, and Molten Rock kingdom students will be the only ones participating. Thus, there will be many students of the best current and last four generations participating. High-ranked nobles and possibly their parents would go there as well.”

“If the rumors are true. Then...”

*Bam* “I thought my ~students~ would be here.” Maria entered loudly by opening the classroom door with a push and glared at the students for making Ming Xiao Fan keep his mouth endlessly moving.

“Ahem.” Ming Xiao Fan cleared his throat and said, “Rumors can be deceiving, yet they can be truths or twisted truths. Then become stronger and protect your loved ones. Time won’t be wasted if it is used correctly.”

Ming Xiao Fan apologized to Maria for keeping the students for too long and left for Class B.

.....

[Does that mean something bad might happen five months from now?]

-I hope not. But one thing is for certain. I must not go to the dwarven kingdom, Molten Rock kingdom, or whatever they call it, and risk entering into someone else’s problem.-

[I agree with your judgment. However, if the rankings will involve ranked fights, it’s not like you are going to reveal your true power and defeat five students by yourself.]

-Yeah...-

*Sigh* “Are you guys waiting for the ceiling to fall on you or something?” *Sigh* “Follow me to the magic class.” *Sigh* “Mana isn’t going to grow if you sit and act surprised.”

The class followed Maria, and they had the usual meditating lesson. Vincent couldn’t focus that well.

Now that Vincent had become a noble and had a place to call home, he felt bummed to lose everything all of a sudden. If war really erupted, he would have to start everything from scratch.

If Vincent was requested to fight because he is a person registered as a noble citizen of the Lusterfall kingdom, his secret might be revealed one day.

It was a dilemma. Will his allies fighting against the same enemy suddenly turn on him? Would both kingdoms decide to hunt him and his family down?

The class ended. Vincent shook his head and tried to remove his thoughts.

Later, Vincent asked if Maria knew anything about the rumor, but she didn’t know if it was true or false.

*Saturday Morning*

That is what happened in the last three days. Today was Saturday. It was a day Vincent planned to visit the potion shop. Even if the shop didn’t have many potions available, Vincent hoped to meet with the alchemist and receive Darwin’s gift.

Vincent, his wives, and Plow went to Paradise Island and headed to the potion cart on the coin road. After arriving, they saw one or two students leaving with a frown. It appeared the potions available weren’t to their satisfaction.

From the large window of the cart, a woman in her mid-thirties was wearing enough makeup to make her look young and attractive. She wore elegant clothing, yet the neck of her shirt was quite long and revealing.

The curves of her abundant chest would make any man have difficulty deciding where to look at. The potions, her face, or her chest.

The woman looked at Vincent, and their eyes met. She seductively smiled when noticing a young-looking man surrounded by three women, a white wolf, and a blue fox familiars.

“Hey, boy.” *Wink* “You look tasty, unlike the other kids, but your company doesn’t appear to be enough to satisfy you. How about a libido potion, sexy boy? Or perhaps...” The woman smiled and bit her bottom lip. She continued, “Or perhaps me? Hehe.”

Vincent, Kazumi, Iris, and Lilith froze from the woman’s words. It was so abrupt and unexpected that they couldn’t think for a moment before a familiar sound broke their daze.

*Bark! Bark!* [Best girl Lupa isn’t enough? Humph, my mate doesn’t need weak humans like you, thot!]

*cough* “It is okay, Lupa. But could you tell me you taught you that word?” Vincent asked to change the subject. He feared the impatient Lupa might attack the woman if he didn’t stop her.

*Woof* [Sister Kazumi taught me many new words. They sound very interesting.]

[Ahem. Please do not mind Lupa’s words. I merely helped Lupa learn about human culture and how to live in human society.]

‘Kazumi...’ *~Sigh~* ‘she is till teaching Lupa problematic words...’ Vincent thought with a long sigh.

“Hey, sexy boy.” *Wink* “Two silver can make you a temporarily happy boy. But” *Wink* “The real fun is free, hehe.” The woman kept flirting with Vincent from a few meters distance and in front of his wives.

Ester whispered, “Should we call her out?”

Iris whispered, “But she is not wrong.”

Ester whispered, “That woman is flirting with our husband. We should not accept such behavior.”

Lilith whispered, “This is getting interesting, though. It’s like the flirting I read in books. The ones where the protagonist is too dense, and he ignores the woman’s intention.”

Ester became shocked to hear Lilith say this. She frowned and whispered, “I don’t mind sharing Vincent with my good sisters, but it’s not like I accept going with every woman he meets.”

Iris nodded and whispered, “By Vincent isn’t that type of man.”

Lilith slyly smirked and whispered, “Don’t worry, Iris. Our cute sister Ester is jealous. Look at how she is blushing.”

“...” Ester moved her gaze at the woman flirting with Vincent. She glared at her chest as if it was the problem. It was obvious Ester’s inferior complex triggered her fury. She wanted to pop the woman’s ballon-like chest.

Vincent approached the woman. He smirked and said, “A woman is beautiful when she doesn’t lie. I know most of your words and appearance are to suck my money dry. I know how a professional salesman works.”

Vincent recalled how some stores would have cosplayers in front of their shop to sell their wares. Others would have attractive models. This was a trick of the trade to attract customers when they were on the fence about buying something.

Vincent was one of the many who was attracted to such a publicity stunt. One day, there was a lot of hype on the internet about three famous cosplayers cosplaying as the green-eyed hero and his two lovers, the wild ice twins.

Vincent ended up going to the shop, and he understood how the hype was real, and the three cosplayers amazed him. Vincent was so happy at that moment that he bought a limited edition of the green-eyed hero, which cost a lot of money.

The book he bought was a limited edition, but it was printed in a huge volume that the second-hand online markets were flooded with many copies. In the end, its value decreased.

Vincent learned never to jump on the hype train and keep his act. When there was a similar activity, Kevin went with Vincent to help him resist the urge to purchase.

“Trying to be a smart boy? Hehe.” *Wink* “You are a first-year, I see. Do you have something interesting to show this bad girl?” The woman said.

Vincent became annoyed and inspected her stats. He wanted to call her by her name to intimidate her, but it became a problem.

“...” Vincent couldn’t call her honey all when his wives were behind him. She wasn’t a noble, so she didn’t have a surname either.

“Ahem.” Vincent cleared his throat and said, “What potions do you have available?”

“Hmm. Sexy boy isn’t that fun.” Honey looked a little unsatisfied when Vincent didn’t fluster like the other teens.

*Clink, clink* Honey placed five potions on the table for Vincent to choose from.

“The potions available are Minor Cleanse Potion, Perception, Regen, ~Vigor~, and Bloody Heart Pump.” *Wink* “Vigor potion is the non-erotic name. It gives a lot of energy, but many good boys also turn into ~bad~ boys, hehe.” Honey explained without a hint of shame.

Vincent used inspection and raised his brows in surprise. It was difficult to preserve his points since all of them were enticing. Even the vigor potion with stamina regeneration and a duration of one hour was enticing when in the presence of Sakura.

Regardless of the four ordinary-sounding potions, the fifth potion was the most eye-catching. He began to wonder why it wasn’t out of stock.
