Level Up With My Bastard System in Fantasy World

Chapter 7 : How to Make Potion

“System, what do you mean by learning to make potions?”  asked Timothee still confused by the quest System 666 had given him.

[Host will find out what the System intends to do with this quest]

This bastard system didn't say what its real purpose for giving this quest to Timothee.  After talking with System for a while, Timothee realized that System was hiding something from him.

[System hope Host doesn't think anything strange to the God System]

Timothee was silent when he heard System's words which sounded very cold to his ears.  It seemed that for now Timothee had better think about how to heal this vulnerable body.

He didn't know if learning to make potions would help him to heal the curse that was in his body.

Timothee put the empty tray of porridge back onto the small table next to his bed.

While thinking how he could tell Violette to teach him to maks potions.  It was then that Timothee asked the System a question.

“System do your quest 3 that you just gave me have a time limit for completion?”  asked Timothee have thinking of asking this question.

[Regular quests given by the system have no time limit, unlike the daily quest that must be completed on the same day.  However, after the Host has completed a regular quest, the quest's requirements will last until the next day]

Timothee listened carefully to the explanation the System gave him, he just found out that the quest given by the System did not have a time limit.

So, he could casually complete the quests.Timothee planned to have a casual talk with Violette and ask her to teach him about potions, but he was sure that Violette wouldn't instantly teach him how to practice making potions.

Sooner Timothee asked Violette to teach him, sooner Violette would let him practice making potions.

As Timothee was deep in thought thinking about a plan to complete his quest, he was suddenly startled by a knock on his door.

Not long after, Violette appeared from behind the door carrying a bowl filled with medicinal herbs for Timothee.

“This potion will help you recover your body, Young Master,” Violette said as she handed a bowl of medicinal herbs to Timothee.

“Is it as bitter as yesterday?”  asked Timothee timidly when he saw the medicinal herbs in front of him.

Timothee could see Violette nodding her head excitedly, it seemed she was happy to see Timothee tormented drinking her bitter potion.

With his brow furrowed and his eyes also closed, Timothee finally got up the courage to take a sip of the medicinal herbs at once.

Timothee immediately returned the bowl of medicinal herbs to Violette after he had finished the medicinal herb.  Quickly, Timothee reached for the dessert he had set aside earlier to neutralize the bitter taste he was feeling.

“Your potion is very bitter, Vio."

It was heard that Violette just chuckled happily when she heard Timothee's complaint to her.

"By the way, Vio.  Can you help me?”  Timothee started the plan he had made earlier.

“What is it, Young Master?”  Violette asked curiously, because Timothee rarely asked for her help.

“Will you teach me about making potions?”  Finally, Timothee said those words too, currently he was waiting nervously for Violette's answer.

“Hmmm... I don't know, if Young Master is interested in potions,” Violette replied slightly surprised.

"You're right, I just wanted to give it a try, who knows I might make a potion that isn't bitter as yours," Timothee replied with joke to Violette.

Unfortunately, Violette didn't laugh at his joke, Timothee instantly shut his mouth after seeing Violette's reaction was not what he expected.

“Young Master, learning to make potions is not easy.  Just to make basic potions takes years of study. Are you sure you want to learn it?”  Violette asked with a serious face that Timothee had never seen before.

“No, I do not want!"  Timothee thought screaming in his mind.  "Of course, I'd be very happy if you'd be willing to teach me," replied Timothee nodding his head.

Violette sighed, “Okay, I'll teach you.  But, not now considering your body is not feeling well.  I will give you some books for Young Master to study, in a week I will test you and will decide if you are serious about studying potions.”  Violette said at length explaining the arrangements she had thought of for Timothee's request.

"I'd be happy to learn it," replied Timothee, widening his smile, glad that at least Violette would teach him.

“Get some rest,” Violette said briefly allowing Timothee to go back to rest.

Violette took the empty trays of Timothee's breakfast, then went out of the Timothee's room.

After confirming that Violette was out of his room, Timothee again called System to discuss with him.

“System do I really have to practice potions to complete the quest you gave me?"  asked Timothy.

[That's right, don't worry Host can finish the quest slowly]

“In that case, okay.  Oh yeah, don't I get rewarded after completing your quest?”  Timothee wondered if he didn't get rewarded, it seemed he could only the first time he completed the quest.

[System has rewarded Host.  The system has notified the Host that the rewards obtained after completing the quest are entered into the inbox]

Timothee could see that the System had mocked him subtly.  Timothee had no memory of the System notification telling him that his prize had gone to his inbox.

"Inbox."

Seen in the inbox window Timothee's login has two unopened messages.  Excitedly, Timothee clicked his messages to see what prizes he would get.

[Does the Host want to open the gift box that has been obtained?]

An inscription appeared when Timothee opened one of the messages he had not read, this message he got after completing his daily quest.

"Yes."

Ding!

[Gained 100 exp

Get 3 skill points

Getting 1 random box]

"Wow, that's a lot of prizes!"  Timothee's eyes gleamed brightly when he saw the generous gifts System had bestowed on him.

“System, what are these skill points?”  asked Timothee confused as he saw himself getting something he didn't know how to use.

[Host can increase the acquired skill with this point]

“I can get skills?”  asked Timothee widening his eyes in surprise when he heard System's words.

[Host can achieve skill when doing something repeatedly]

"Great!  I'll try to get a skill that will help me,” said Timothee excitedly knowing that he could get a skill.

Then, Timothee pressed one more message that he got after completing his quest 2.

Ding!

[Gained 10 exp

Getting 5 potions

Get 10 gold coins]

“Gold coins?  Can I use this system?”  asked Timothee again excited when he got something he had never gotten from the System.

[Gold coins can only be used in the System shop.  The system store will open when Host is at Level 5]

“I didn't know you had such great features like this!”  Timothee was thinking of leveling up as quickly as possible at this point, curious about the contents of the shop provided by the System.
