Chapter 116 Magic Grimorium

Alcoberg Town,

Aizel and Soren stayed in town for three more days, trying different types of alcohol and avoiding any potential trouble. Fortunately, their stay came to an end without a hitch, and they completed their mission successfully. As a result, they were summoned to the academy.

Damaris' family presented Aizel with two ingredients for the mind potion as they were about to leave town.

Though Aizel suspected there was an ulterior motive behind the gift, he didn't give it much thought at the time. He saw an opportunity to take advantage of his status and exploit it.

The gift included mandrake roots and white petals from the Tulipa flower, provided by Kyle. After receiving the gift, Aizel, and Soren departed.

"That technique of yours, is that something you created yourself or just gave it a name?" Aizel asked.

As they rode on their horses towards Felgura town, Aizel found himself growing bored of the journey.

To pass time, he decided to engage Soren in conversation and extract whatever knowledge or information he could from him.

"It's mine; haven't you made your technique yet?" Soren replied.

"Naaaa... I never really needed it."

"You should make it; a self-made magic or technique is always more powerful than anything you can learn from a Magic Grimorium."

For the first time in this world, Aizel's ears perked up when he heard the term "Magic Grimorium."

"What is this Magic Grimorium you speak of?" He asked.

Soren turned his gaze towards Aizel and inquired, "Hasn't the war goddess taught you anything?"

"You can consider me more like her servant than her student," Aizel replied.

"Hmm…The Magic Grimorium are ancient books of incredible power that contain knowledge of spells and techniques, the benefits and drawbacks of various magical elements, and how to learn and master them.

"These books are essential for any aspiring mage seeking to harness the power of magic.

"If you want to learn Grade III fire techniques and spells, or how you can manipulate them better, you have to learn it from the Grade III Ignis Magic Grimorium."

"So, they are basically grimoires," Aizel thought.

"Where can we get those?" He asked.

"You will get one from the institute... You can get two because of your dual core.

"As your core advances through grades, you will require more advanced Grimorium, which can only be provided by institutes, nobles, or the royals."

Soren finished his explanation, and Aizel absorbed all of it, already planning a future conversation with Vespara. They arrived in the bustling city of Felgura after a tiring day and a half of nonstop travel.

Soren went to his household and Aizel headed straight to the potion shop.

Both of them had to report their activities from the past seven days at the institute the following day.

As Aizel entered the potion shop, he was taken aback by the sight before him.

Daisy was wearing a noble lady outfit, which had seemingly transformed her into a goddess.

Her light-yellow gown was embroidered with delicate flowers and intricate designs in gold thread. The dress was cut off at the shoulder, leaving her shoulders bare. The form-fitting accentuated her perfectly shaped bosom and flowed all the way down to her feet.

A slit on one side of her dress revealed one of her stunning legs, and a small necklace hung around her neck, complementing her golden flowing hair, which cascaded down like a waterfall.

Aizel's gaze locked onto Daisy, and she blushed as she felt a tingling warmth spread across her face. Vespara noticed the exchange and quickly stepped up to Aizel's ear, leaning in, only to whisper, "Make her yours before someone else steals her away from you..."

As Aizel stood there, his gaze fixed on Daisy's stunning appearance, he was in a complete trance, enthralled by her beauty.

Vespara attempted to get his attention by whispering in his ear, but he seemed oblivious to her presence, lost in his own thoughts.

"Ahem… Aizel?" Daisy slowly called his name.

Aizel's gaze shifted away from Daisy as he became aware of his actions. He stumbled over his words as he tried to explain himself quickly.

"This isn't what you think; it's just that I have never seen you like this before.

"But why are you dressed like that? Are you going somewhere with her?" Aizel asked.

"Nope, but I am preparing her for an event." Vespara interrupted.

"Event?"

"Yes! Soon there will be a gala party that is organized by the nobles, who are enjoying their accomplishments and victories over the riot.

"You guys from the institute will also be required to attend it as the royal family will be there.

"So as a date for the evening, I and Daisy will be joining you," Vespara said with a smile.

"I can understand about Daisy, and I will be happy to take her with me, but why are you coming with me, hag? Don't you have anyone else in your life?"

"It seems like you really don't want me to make the mind potions…"

"Oh, come on, it was just a joke; I will be happy to take two gorgeous women with me. Who in their right mind can say no to a war goddess, hahaha..."

With the mind potion at stake, Aizel's demeanor abruptly changed, doing a complete 180.

"Good, my pretty boy, so how was your mission?"

"We didn't have to do anything; just when we reached the town, Soren beat some guys' asses in the bar, which made them leave the town after that.

"Then we heard that all the guys that were making problems suddenly started retreating somewhere, so we spent a week doing nothing.

"Oh yeah! I got some blue spring grass, mandrake roots, and white petals of Tulipa from there, and we even killed a Grade III Pafugl."

Aizel gestured to Vespara and called forth the ingredients, handing them over to her.

"Good, now you only need four more ingredients before I can make the potion for you.

"Meanwhile, take Daisy back with you and enjoy some quality time with her now; I have important work to do now, sho, sho…."
