Chapter 1008: No Longer Going To Avoid (1/2)

*Whoosh!~*

Abruptly, Davis waved his hand and caught an object that came flying at him.

Everyone became startled!

”You have not disappointed me...” Princess Isabella domineeringly echoed from her seat as she rested her chin on her palm, her thick thighs stacked upon itself.

Davis inwardly chuckled at her performance and opened his palm, and saw the object. It was none other than the fifty milliliters of Million Emerald Vines Calamity's nectar.

He had given her some vials to strut off and to make people believe that she truly held the nectar, but obviously, most of it was with him.

Davis cast a look at Princess Isabella and smiled. Originally, he possessed no idea of publically faking a breakthrough, but because of many factors such as Isabella's provocation, his deal with Dalila Leehan, he simply did not want to lose as the urge to win increased over time.

Many times, he felt that winning or losing felt childish as he was influenced by many shows he watched on Earth. However, he also understood winning or losing isn't the same as in the modern world, as winning or losing most of the time ends up deciding one's fate. It could be in no way considered childish as their lives literally depended on winning or losing.

He took his gaze back after musing but looking at the people eyeing him, no, eyeing the nectar like crazy; he practically experienced a chill on his spine that made him instantly uncomfortable.

'What the... These people... this nectar attracts so much desire than a seductively dressed woman...'

He promptly kept the rewards in his spatial ring and could see the absolute disappointment in people's faces as their expression changed into reluctance and unwillingness. Some even gasped in disappointment as they heaved a sigh, knowing that Alchemist Davis had no intention to share the precious nectar with them even if they gave him a delicious deal.

Dalila Leehan also became disappointed. She knew that she had no chance to ask for the nectar and would not be entertained, perhaps even publically teased and humiliated. However, she remained extremely curious about two things and wanted to question.

But before that, she threw him an object.

Davis caught it before he realized that it was a messaging talisman to contact her. Noticing the grade of the talisman, he was a bit astonished as it was a higher-grade talisman that was able to connect two people from as far as three Territories apart.

He inwardly nodded and kept it in his spatial ring.

”What is the name of this potent Body Tempering Pill?”

Davis hesitated for a moment, thinking if revealing the name would invite trouble, but he suddenly had an epiphany.

'If I have all this power, not to mention, Fallen Heaven, why am I so aversed to troubles that I take so many precautions to avoid them?'

'I know that it is simply because that it's a drag, but... you know what... I won't take the initiative to avoid troubles. Let trouble come to me, and I'll just squash it myself!'

His hesitation was only for a moment before he smirked, ”It is called the Enlightened Martial Surge Pill. As for the effects, it is the same as I explained before, only useful for reaching a breakthrough.”

”I see...” Dalila Leehan furrowed her brows.

Even with her current knowledge, she had never heard about this pill before.

'I should ask my seniors and elders about the origins of this pill after I return. Perhaps, the Glorious Pill Palace from the mid-sized Territory might be in possession of it, and in that case, I can accept that such a pill has transcended what we are capable of...!'
