Chapter 26: Ten Days (2/2)
[Energy Points: 500+12→512]
Kadyn also started teaching Elora potion making—he couldn't stop smiling when he remembered her face after learning that he could brew potions. She was shocked beyond belief. She had a healing element and her dream was to become a famous potioneer. That's why she knew how hard it was to become one—to know that her brother, who was less than nineteen, had become a potioneer, was something to be bragged about.
Moreover her brother's achievements didn't shock her the most. It was she—herself—who brewed Soothing Potion in just a practice of five days. After that event, her smile came back and her face shone with confidence that she lacked before.
However the only regrettable thing was that she had no healing spell. If she had one such spell, the shop would become even more popular. After all everyone needed to heal from big or small injuries. Although other magus looked down on them, their value couldn't be denied.

Kadyn stood in front of the Spinning Wheel and spoke. ”Spin!”
So the wheel started rolling and 10 points vanished like smoke in the fog. His hands clasped in agitation, sweat trickling his forehead. ”Come on!”
”Better luck next time!”
He had already expected it and once more rolled the spin.
”Better luck next time!”
Once more.
”Better luck next time!”
”...”
After the fourth try he stopped, peering at the wheel speechlessly. He had the urge to curse the system, but he remembered it would cost him ten energy points, so he swallowed his indignance.
”Last time.” He exhaled deeply and once more the wheel rolled. Kadyn stood languidly. He had no hope to get any lottery—when he thought the same notification would appear again, the change occurred. ”Congratulations on winning a lottery.”
The elation at this moment he felt could not be described in words. Then, he remembered the last lottery and his smile froze. He rushed to check the thing that he won and saw a scroll in front of the wheel. He rushed to grasp it as it would run away and opened to check what was inside.
”Healing spell?”
”What would I do with a healing spell?” Kadyn frowned.
”Just give it to your sister.” The system chimed in.
”I should give her? But didn't you say last time that I can't give a lottery to others?” he asked suspiciously.
”Uh, cough, you can give non-living things to others.” System replied after a short, awkward silence.
”You're contradicting your own words.” Kaden wanted to know the reason behind his contradicting words, but the system refused to answer.
