2026-11-08 06:00:39Carl was not the only one who felt that there was something amiss. Some of the other apothecaries had noticed it too. Everyone started murmuring among themselves and shared differing thoughts.
All of a sudden, one of the imperial guards made a loud announcement, “Minister of the Interior, Marquess Lawrence, has arrived!”The entire hall fell silent and everyone turned toward the entrance. A scholarly-looking middle-aged man walked into the hall surrounded by a group of i

Dorothy glared unhappily at Carl. “Weren’t you going to use my formula to make the drug I told you about? Why are you going back on your word now?”Carl had a twinkle in his eye as he said, “I was just listening to your suggestion. I didn’t say I was going to listen to it.”“If you weren’t going to listen, why did you tell me to get those ingredients?” Dorothy gnashed her teeth angrily.“That’s because I can use the ingredients you were going to get.” Carl did not give Dorothy any chance to use her formula and stopped her from arguing further. “Stop wasting time. Help me to process these herbs now.”Dorothy scoffed and was clearly annoyed, but she started preparing the ingredients anyway.During this time, Carl also went to get more ingredients, then set up his cauldron in an unhurried manner.Carl and his team were considered slow compared to the rest. That was because

The transformation in the Winged Demonic Wolf shocked and unsettled everyone. Many got ready to defend themselves in case the wolf suddenly lost control and began attacking them.Dorothy was also wary as she stood behind Carl and said with a glint in her eye, “Carl, don’t worry. That Baron Bradley was probably trying to get his magical beast to absorb the blood, but it looks like his attempt wasn’t successful. The wolf looks more like it’s trying to protect itself from the blood.”The cyclone of knives gathered around the wolf and gave off a powerful energy.Just then, the wolf suddenly opened its mouth and spat the one drop of purplish-black blood it had swallowed earlier right out.Bradley immediately got out a bottle to store the blood.The cyclone disappeared after that and the wolf was drained of all its energy. It lay limply at Bradley’s feet and whined unhappily.Bradley consoled it for a moment, then began ins

Lawrence continued with his introduction of the gigantic beast from the Abyss by highlighting its special characteristics, “More terrifying than its gaze and roar, however, is its blood.”His expression became very solemn as he said in a grave voice, “The blood of this Abyss beast can influence another person very easily and it is a poison that seems more like a curse than a mere toxin. Anybody who touches or even goes too near the blood will become overly agitated and lose their mind completely. Even superhumans will find it difficult to remain calm and resist the urge to kill everything in sight.”One of the apothecaries exclaimed, “My Lord, is this beast really that frightening?”“It’s even more frightening than you can imagine,” said Lawrence in a deep voice. “I don’t know how else to explain how frightening it is except that it took the royal wizard, Raphael, three Sunlight Knights as well as many

The wizard tower that did not look very large from outside turned out to be humongous on the inside.Carl looked around and managed to keep a straight face since he had seen this sort of magic within Bryant’s castle too.His gaze froze when he saw a gigantic steel cage next to him. A frightening monster was chained to the cage with thick steel chains.The monster was huge and stood on two legs. It had a round and protruding belly, threatening, long horns, bloodthirsty eyes, fangs that hung out of its mouth, and thick arms that ended with three huge claws. It was a terrifying sight to behold.Before Carl could take a closer look, the huge monster suddenly opened its mouth and began to roar furiously. The frightening roar it made threatened to burst eardrums and struck terror in everyone’s hearts.What kind of monster is this? Carl could not help but take two steps back. He was about to look at the monster before him more carefully when he heard Do

“He… seriously made it to the next stage?” Joel’s eyes widened as he watched what was happening above Kane’s back. He could no longer hide the shock he felt inside as well as the tinge of jealousy in his eyes.The chance to reach the next stage was right in front of him. Kane seized the chance to summon all the energy he had within him in order to reach stage five.Just then, the fifth glowing circle behind him suddenly disappeared.The surging blood in his veins calmed down as though someone had poured cold water all over him and the intense energy dissipated too. Kane could not control the disappointment and agitation he felt inside, so he practically flew to Carl’s side and asked in an amazed yet anxious voice, “Why didn’t I make it to the next stage? Why?” He had been so close!Carl blinked a few times, then hung his head to show his remorse. “I’m really sorry. My skills weren’t good eno

Even though Carl had not made anything yet, preparing the herbs and drawing the essence from certain plants helped Dorothy draw a few conclusions about what Carl was planning to concoct. She got a little excited and whispered, “Are you going to make a poison blend?”Carl did not say anything in response. Dorothy was equally well-versed in these things, so there was no way he could hide it from her.“Aren’t you being a little too bold?” whispered Dorothy. “If you end up poisoning him to death, how are we going to get away?”Carl nearly rolled his eyes and snapped, “Who said anything about poisoning him?”“Aren’t you doing that?” Dorothy looked at him as though she knew exactly what he was thinking about. “This poison blend you’re going to make isn’t really pure enough and isn’t a very aggressive one. In fact, it seems pretty gentle, and that makes it great for fooling o
