Chapter 366: Potion Brewing (1/2)

”No problem. Just tell me the materials,” Lawrend replied.

Before long, they reached the Mage Guild.

The Mage Guild of this city was quite different compared to the Mage Guild in Sheron Port City. There are a variety of mages wearing different outfits and mage pins.

They approached the receptionist's desk.

”Hello, High Mage. What can I do for you?”

A busty and beautiful female receptionist greeted the three of them.

Lawrend nudged Nao towards the front.

Nao started listing out materials that were foreign to Lawrend's ears. The receptionist looked at him in surprise.

”You're a Potion Brewer? That's very rare in the kingdom,” the receptionist replied.

”Yes. My Young Master here wants me to make some for him,” Nao replied.

”Alright. That will be 50,000 gold. Would you like to pay using points or gold?” the receptionist asked.

Lawrend widened his eyes in disbelief. Although he was rich, 50,000 gold is still a lot.

”How many portions is that?” Lawrend couldn't help but ask.

”That's 100 portions and the minimum amount of portions that we sell,” the receptionist replied.

”Did you know about this?” Lawrend turned to Nao and asked.

”Yes. There is not a lot of demand, so the Mage Guild only sells them in bulk. After all, not every portion is even going to be successful,” Nao replied.

”How powerful is that potion you're going to brew?” Lawrend asked.

”Because I'm not that good at potion brewing yet, it can only work up to Beginner and True Mages,” Nao replied.

”Hmm… That's quite low.”

Lawrend held his chin as he pondered about it.

”Don't worry, Young Master. I will get better soon!” Nao said determinedly.

He would do everything he could to stay as Lawrend's butler. After all, he wouldn't be anything if he lost this opportunity.

”Alright… How about tools? Do you need any?”

”Yes. I need some potion brewing tools too,” Nao replied.

Lawrend rubbed his temples in worry. He couldn't help but think that this was all a mistake.

”Thank you for doing business with us,” the receptionist said and bowed to Lawrend as they left the Mage Guild.

In total, they spent a total of 75,000 gold. It was a lot of money, and Lawrend used up a lot of his savings. He stared at Nao intently, contemplating whether to sell him as a slave if he was actually not good at potion brewing.

They rode a carriage again and returned to the inn.

”Master, you're back,” Humility greeted him inside their room.

”Nao, do you not need a special room for potion brewing?” Lawrend asked in worry.

Although he doesn't know potion brewing, in his past life, chemistry is usually done in laboratories, where a fan sucks out the toxic fumes that the chemical reaction makes.

He guessed that the same is true for potion brewing.

”No, Young Master. Unlike the other potions, a Healing Potion doesn't need a special lab,” Nao replied.
