Chapter 81: Taking the magic potion and feeling emotional
It was noon, the sun was shining brightly outside the window, and the breeze was blowing, but the city of Merova was still a bit cold in winter.
After the two made out on the sofa, Kesha, who had a rosy complexion, put on her apron and went to prepare lunch, while Lane made a call to a ceremony and celebration company.
Tomorrow is December 25th, his 20th birthday.
Although Renn didn't really care about birthdays, he still had to celebrate them to some extent.
"...According to my conditions, how much does it cost to decorate the courtyard of the villa and hold a bonfire party?"
"Mr. Ackerman, the birthday party you are holding is very small. We will not only decorate the venue, but also provide drinks, ingredients, greeters, hosts... In short, 300 to 400 gold coins are enough."
"This isn't cheap either... isn't it said that the holiday will start from the Holy Fire Festival? Will your company's employees still go to work tomorrow?"
More than 300 gold coins. According to Ren's rough estimate, it is roughly the purchasing power of hundreds of thousands of soft girl coins on the earth.
"Mr. Ackerman, you are joking. Our Lanxiang Etiquette Company's employees have to go to work even during the Chinese New Year... After all, it is a celebration company, and business is only good during holidays."
After talking for a few more words and reaching an agreement on the price, Lane hung up the phone.
When he arrived on the first floor, Kesha was cooking in the kitchen. Seeing that the sumptuous lunch was not ready yet, he followed the small stairs and went down to the dimly lit basement.
Last time, the cursed spirit that resided in one of his storage rings - the "Headless Horseman" went berserk and attacked King Dumbun.
Although after a fierce battle, the Headless Horseman was suppressed by Kesha who arrived in time, but the basement was also damaged.
Since money has been tight recently, Renn did not find anyone to repair it, but just cleaned up the rubble and rubbish himself.
However, not all buildings have been damaged. There is still a training room and laboratory deep inside that can be used.
Buzzing~
Ren pressed his hand on the laboratory door, and a faint blue light emitted from his palm. As the energy of the stars was injected, a six-pointed star pattern appeared on the dark metal door, and the door trembled and slowly opened from the middle.
A kerosene lamp was lit, and under the light of the fire, rows of potions of different colors were displayed on the counter.
In addition to [natural sources] that increase the speed of cultivation, there are [blessing potions], [soul-condensing magic liquid], [spiritual awakening potions], etc. that can enhance mental power, defend against the erosion of spiritual bodies, purify mental pollution, or restrain resentful soul bodies.
has the most potions.
The second impact is expected to peak in January next year, so we need to make some preparations in advance.
Renn pulled out a tube of dark green "Soul-Condensing Demonic Liquid".
"It's a pity that I, a demon hunter, have only learned a little bit about potion and alchemy. I can process and purify magic potions, but I can't even think about making them...otherwise, there is no need to worry about not having money to spend."
He picked up a beaker on the experimental table with a little regret.
Pour in two tubes of soul-condensing magic liquid, add two emerald-like dark eyes, and then pour in a few drops of ice soul dew.
In the strange and fragrant atmosphere, Ren began to stir with a glass rod, and the emerald-shaped dark eyes in the beaker quickly dissolved into the liquid containing ice soul dew.
Then, the energy of the stars in his palm condensed into a faint blue spiritual fire, letting the flames lick the bottom of the beaker.
[Natural Source], [Holy Water], etc. can be reused.
But more magic potions are highly resistant. Usually, after a transcendent takes a certain magic potion several times and obtains certain enhancements, it will be basically ineffective when used again.
During this period, he and King Daimao took [Blessing Potion] and [Awakening Potion] several times, and their mental strength and mental resistance were greatly improved.
Only the soul-condensing magic liquid, which requires simple treatment before being consumed, was left unused.
The blue flame burned, and various colors in the beaker flashed rapidly, like a colorful and ever-changing liquid mass.
"Next... drop a drop of blood!"
When the heat was almost done, Ren bit his finger.
next moment.
Woohoo!
Inside the beaker, various colors were suddenly confused, as if many creatures were howling, and the liquid was like a rainbow that was constantly stirring and rotating, and finally became clear and transparent.
It worked.
Lying on the stone bed nearby, after checking that everything was correct, Ren raised his neck and drank the high-purity [Soul-Condensing Demonic Liquid].
"Ugh~"
The taste of this "Soul-Condensing Demonic Liquid" is much more disgusting than the previous [Blessing Potion] and [Awakening Potion].
It was choking, spicy, and extremely fishy, like a collection of rotten food in the sewer. It was filled with an indescribable nauseating feeling that went down the throat.
'Fuck, this is what the witch Josephina said--a little peculiar smell? It's just like eating food...'
Ren covered his mouth, barely able to spit it out.
The next moment, he groaned again and held his head.
pain!
Intense pain suddenly attacked his brain.
It was as if someone had roughly split open his skull with an ax and poured a can of hot molten iron into it.
Ren suddenly felt like he had a splitting headache, and his head felt dizzy, as if it was filled with all kinds of things.
He gritted his teeth and cursed:
"Josefina...what a high-level secret handling method, the experience is extremely bad!"
This potion, after being purified and processed according to the method of the nightmare witch... the effect of taking it is too painful.
But soon, all the pain disappeared.
After Ren came back to his senses, he suddenly felt a little scared.
In front of him, multiple strange shadows appeared.
The female ghost in red with disheveled black hair, the faceless ghost bug with emerald green eyes, the fallen angel with a wolf head, the grinning weirdo with a cleft mouth... They were like a group of unjust ghosts, all of them staring at him with hatred.
They drifted forward slowly, getting closer and closer, and even the blue-black skin on their faces and every pore were clearly visible.
Suddenly, they let out a howl and opened their bloody mouths!
"snort!"
Ren snorted coldly, and immediately sat up. His palm was instantly filled with concussive light, and he punched into the void!
Click... click~
The atmosphere actually let out a cracking cry, shattering like a mirror, and the phantom movements of many evil ghosts and spirits stagnated, slowly dissipating like blue smoke.
Just an illusion?
Ren couldn't help but frown. He didn't notice the fluctuations in mental power that would occur after the death of the wronged soul.
This means that those spiritual bodies just now do not exist, they are just phantoms.
However, after they appeared, they objectively caused changes in the nature of the spiritual energy in the surrounding air, and they could also cause certain mental harm to people.
Between existence and non-existence, it can interfere with reality...
"It's such a troublesome and troubled time."
Ren shook his head, opened an iron box on the experimental table, picked up an off-white storage ring, and stroked it gently.
There is a string of golden runes on the surface of the ring, flowing with a slightly fiery radiance. This is the sealing sacred text formed by the "flame of the sun", which imprisons the resentful spirit - the "Headless Horseman".
'Perhaps, this powerful resentful spirit can come in handy in the future.'
Ren thought about the second impact, put back the ring, closed the laboratory door, and returned to the first floor of the villa.
At this time, Valkyrie had already prepared lunch.
Red-leaf golden chub, white mushrooms, dried shrimps, vegetable salad, braised pork knuckles, roasted lamb... At the time of farewell, Kesha showed off her cooking skills and cared for Renn.
There was also rapeseed and egg drop soup, the staple food was bread, and finally there was a fruit plate. She served these things quickly, and even put a pair of chopsticks on the table.
Although there are chopsticks in this world, they are far from mainstream.
People are still accustomed to using knives and forks, but Kesha knew that Ren was very proficient in using chopsticks, so she prepared several pairs at home.
The lunch was very satisfying, the fiancée was attentive and virtuous, but Ren was a bit unappetizing.
"Ren, what's wrong? Is it not to your liking?"
After working in the kitchen for a long time and serving the dishes, Kesha took off her apron and walked over.
Looking at her boyfriend at the dinner table, who was not using a knife and fork, her beautiful eyes were a little confused, because it was all based on his taste.
"No, no, it's great. It's just that I just took the magic potion and it's a bit off my appetite... Xiaoyue, let me serve you first."
Having just experienced the sour and refreshing taste of "Soul Condensing Demonic Liquid", Renne needs to take a breather.
So he stood up and pushed Kesha to sit down.
The food culture in this world is very particular, including bread and cheese, stir-fry dishes, snacks... everything is available, as well as table manners, seasoning combinations, eating methods, etc., which are all very interesting.
Of course, this is only for the upper aristocratic class. Common people are not so particular.
Renn began to serve his fiancée.
He took out the plate of the most delicious mutton, lamb shank, and took the seasonings to mix, including soy sauce, chili powder, salt, sesame oil, etc.
He cut the tender mutton and tail mutton into meat slices about 3 square centimeters in size about the size of a thumb, and each slice was lean and fat.
Then mix them fat and lean, and skewer them one by one on a special wooden skewer. Each skewer has about six or seven pieces of meat. Add soy sauce and seasoning, mix well, and brush the soy sauce on the meat.
Brush it up and down a few times, and brush the roasted meat with sesame oil.
After all this processing, the mutton is red in color, spicy and fragrant, shiny, not greasy and not tangy, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the meat is so delicious that it makes people drool.
He held her flexible and slender waist with one hand, picked up a bunch of prepared mutton with the other hand, brought it to her mouth and fed it to her.
"Ren, I'm not a child, I don't need you to feed me."
Kesha opened her red lips slightly and took a bite. A charming blush appeared on her face as white as snow.
She felt happy and sweet about her boyfriend's tenderness, but also a little embarrassed. She didn't know how charming her shy little girl posture was, like the brightest flower, which even made Ren a little stunned.
"Huh, I'm going to feed you like a stupid domestic cat."
Ren seems to have discovered another way to train his girlfriend besides the bed.
During the entire lunch, he held her in his arms and fed her like a child, making Kesha feel both sweet and shy.
Except for her vague memory of childhood, she had almost never been treated like this, and she had never thought that one day she would be so intimate with a man.
Now in front of him, I have completely lost the posture of a Valkyrie...
"Hey, Xiaoyue, eat some more." Ren En smiled broadly and handed another small piece of bread to her mouth.
"It's almost done. You'll gain weight."
Kesha shook her head and refused to eat anymore. After becoming someone else's woman, she became more and more concerned about her body and appearance.
"It doesn't matter, I like plumper women, hehe, it feels great."
"Humph, gangster, bad guy..."
Staring at her towering chest, Ren couldn't help but smirk, while Kesha lightly punched his chest with her show fist, coquettishly.
After that, he finally got rid of the influence of the potion and gained an appetite. The two of them just flirted and finished the sumptuous lunch.
'Perhaps we should get married early and have a child...'
After lunch, Kesha was washing the dishes in the kitchen when this idea suddenly came to her mind, which shocked her and made her blush to the roots of her ears.
She is a bit cold and hates men at heart, but she would have such thoughts... Is this still her original self?
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
A touch of blood spread from Kesha's pupils, turning her crimson eyes completely red. It was an extreme, life-devouring bright red. As her eyes opened and closed, countless creatures could be vaguely seen struggling in the sea of blood...
Her eyes soon became cold and domineering, full of the meaning of a god looking down on the common people.
Staring at the sparkling blue diamond ring on the middle finger of her right hand - this was Ren's proposal ring... her expression suddenly changed, which was very wonderful.
"Haha, interesting, a little brat... you want me to marry you and give you children?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After a moment, the corners of the Queen's mouth slightly curled up, and a thrilling smile suddenly bloomed on her stunning face.
Just like a meteor piercing the vast night sky, the ice and snow on the silver-covered earth melted in an instant... The vicissitudes of the sea, the ups and downs of the world, amazed the long time.
Even though her appearance remains the same, the Valkyrie at this moment, her beauty, and her style transcend the mortal world.
This is the charm of female vampires.
A high-ranking vampire, with a long life of more than a thousand years, a noble education that goes deep into the bone marrow, and countless bloody killings, can give birth to a beauty that is full of danger, magnificence, death, nobility, and stunning beauty.
"Hmph, ridiculous little man, let me give you a chance..."
The queen in the kitchen stretched out her hand, and a stream of blood flowed into the void.
But the moment the scarlet blood light flew out of the window, the blood color gradually disappeared as if fading, and turned into a ray of golden light, blending into the bright sunshine outside.
Blood energy, which is essentially on the dark side, can be converted into sunlight, completely ignoring certain laws.
If there were demons here, they would probably be shocked. This is almost equivalent to someone destroying a mountain with a bucket of cold water and then burning it with water.
The blood in her pupils dissipated, and Kesha returned to normal.
But she didn't seem to notice anything. She was just stunned for a moment and started to wash the dishes.
…
"Archido, that wise mortal
The time woven by the gods indicates that he will suffer hardships
He is still as bright as a star among the Sons of God
His mother was Mielikki, a goddess who ruled over the forest
He was born in a cave in the woods when the goddess and the hunter slept together
For this reason, the gods gave him glory and strength
It also gave him a lot of hardships
…”
In the living room of the villa, Renn did not notice anything unusual. He was flipping through a book with a simple cover called "The War of Achido".
This epic is from the collection of the Valkyrie's cousin, Catherine. It is said to be translated from an epic of the elves.
By the way, I haven’t seen that cute and cute young lady for a while...
As I was thinking this, the phone on the table suddenly rang.
"Boss, good news, the 'Plastic Brotherhood' plan has been successfully implemented... Please give us instructions on the next step."
