Chapter 13-2

(T/L: Its spoiler, but I want to make It clear, so theres no confusion. Yes! Sword has conscious, How much? Youll find out in the next 2 Chapters.

Oh! Ill post another chapter in the evening (In Asia Time, Morning for westerners? Be sure to check It out)

Ill think about the protagonist later. For now, I need to persuade El Tesoikve

Ive finished grinding everything.

The medicine is also ready.

Ah, well done everyone.

As Sion moved, the chefs quickly stepped back and made room for him.

On the table lay finely grounded Limpia Macina and the warm potion prepared side by side.

Now, all Sion had to do was mix the two and drink it to gain immunity to mental domination.

Sion looked down at the two bowls and immediately reached out his hand.

He dumped all the Crimson Limpia Macina into the potion.

Then, without even stirring, he drank it without hesitation.

It feels like something is clearing up.

After drinking the potion, Sion didnt move for a while.

The bittersweet and sweet taste lingered in his mouth and went down his throat.

His mind became lighter and something vivid seemed to rise, then immediately returned to its original state.

How was it?

Kaltz approached Sion while being conscious of his surroundings.

Hanette followed closely behind and perked her ears.

Well its subtle.

The taste is subtle?

The feeling is also subtle.

No, then why did you drink this?

They say that drinking this clears the mind.

Just for that one thing, you spent so much money?

Dont you have to do that much to awaken your magic power?

Kaltz was taken aback by Sions response. So was Hanette.

Awakening magical powers required a certain amount of innate talent.

Please sit.

Yes.

Fred sat on the main seat of the table, and Sion sat next to him.

Fred opened his mouth, again, conscious of the envelope in his pocket.

Where is your fianc?

She is waiting for me in the reception room.

Is she uncomfortable?

Yes. She may not express it, but didnt see any signs of discomfort.

Thats good enough. Shes just enduring it for my and your sake?

Sion realized that it was a compliment.

Most nobles still treated Hanette as a notorious young lady.

The fact that such a notorious young lady was suppressing her true nature and waiting for them was a judgment that things had improved somewhat.

Contrary to what the public may know, she is a kind and gentle person. I hope that at least you, father, will see my fiance in a favorable light.

Sion spoke honestly, but with a hint of dissatisfaction.

Hanette was naturally gentle and virtuous, and tried not to harm innocent people if possible.

Since both families hoped for a good relationship between Sion and Hanette, it was possible to gain some benefits by going along with it.

Even if he didnt receive any special treatment, it was still a minimal loss as he could improve her reputation.

If thats how you feel, then, take it.

Finally, convinced, Fred took out an envelope from his pocket.

Sion stared at the envelope in silence.

What is this?

Its what you need.

Can I open it?

Do as you wish.

Sion cautiously reached out his hand and took the envelope.

Upon looking inside, neatly arranged notes were there.

It was a similar amount of money he received before leaving for Adelaira Dukes mansion.

I can buy the Holy Water with this. If I have any left, I can go to the auction house to find something as well.
