Chapter 237 237 – A Miraculous Potion
We spent our time slowly atop the tall wall. Tristan leaned her head again, and I caressed her hair softly with my hand.
Suddenly I felt really happy but a bit nervous at the same time. Back in Horizon Online, I would've never imagined myself sitting like this with Tristan. She always kept her distance and sometimes was angry at something trivial. I knew that was just her tsundere kicking off, so I teased her for some time.
"Hey, Arthur."
The silence was broken as I felt the weight pressing against my shoulder was lifted. Tristan looked at me seriously."
"How will you fix my boobs problem? You said you could fix it?"
Even though she smiled, I felt like she was seriously judging me, which was dangerous. Her eyes turned into a slit, like a crescent moon, as her face leaned closer to mine.
"Ah, about that."
The corner of my lips curled up into a grin. I had prepared for this since in Lima Port City. I knew that Tristan would eventually whine about her boobs even though she was beautiful the way she was.
"Look at this."
Saying so, I took out a clear pink liquid in a round bottle with a heart-shaped lid. Tristan leaned back and looked at the bottle curiously.
"You know what?" I looked at Tristan while moving around the bottle in front of me.
"It's truly a shame. After you were gone, this potion was successfully developed. Although the material required to make one potion was really rare to the point you needed to raid Level 85 dungeons many times just to secure one kind of material, the effect of this potion was miraculous."
"W-Wait."
Tristan's face lit up in realization. She knew what kind of potion I held in my hand. It was a dream potion someone like her would be dying to get. But I ignored it and continued.
"There are only 5 potions managed to be concocted in two years before the last potion maker was gone for good. I have 3 of them. Maybe I will give it to you if you can guess the effect." I smirked, putting the potion back in my inventory before she snatched it from my hand.
"Grr…! Give that to me, Arthur!"
"Not so fast, washboard. Guess the effect first."
Seeing my smirk, she growled in an attempt to intimidate me. Then she pouted and threw her face away.
"Hmph! Do you think I will be interested in something like that? I told you that I love myself! Besides, I had boobs and will regain them in 6 months!"
"But that's you as Isabelle. Imagine, Tristan. I have 3 potions. If the effect written in the potion's description is correct, then… you might have them just 2 sizes smaller than Garcia."
At that moment, I noticed her body twitched in interest.
"2 sizes smaller than Garcia means it's almost as big as Rania. Are you sure you're not interested in it? I can give it to Rania and make her boob grow similar to Cecil's size. If that happens, you will not have the chance to win the duel."
"Arthur, do you hate me?" Tristan looked at me with a stoic expression devoid of any emotion.
"Nope. I love you." And I replied with a straight tone.
Slowly, she stood up. Her dress was fluttering due to the wind, and she looked down at me.
It happened so quickly. She suddenly jumped at me, pushing us down the wall, and shouted.
"Then give it to me!"
"We're falling, idiot!"
"I don't care! We won't die if we fall anyway. So give me the potion!"
"Alright, alright. Calm down!"
I immediately put myself under her and pulled her into a hug to protect her.
Krsk! Thud!
Thankfully, the bushes made the landing not that hard, and the dirt under me was a bit soft. Still, the ground cracked, and the dust kicked up, creating a cloud.
At that moment, I quickly took out three similar potions and gave them to Tristan.
"Here."
She immediately snatched them and put them into her inventory. Her expression turned into an indifferent one as she stood up.
"I will tell Rania that I will accept the duel. As for the time, it's up to me, alright?"
"Yeah, do as you please."
"Fufufu, I hope you're ready, Arthur. I am not as clueless as you thought I was." With a small smirk, Tristan walked away from me.
I raised my head and coughed a little. The dust was really thick.
The knights ran toward me, asking whether I was okay and what had happened.
I brushed them off, saying I was fooling around, and slipped down the wall. I also showed them that I was okay by jumping vertically after bidding farewell, high enough to see Tristan talking to Rania in the distance and crossing the wall.
When I landed on the other side and walked away casually, looking forward to Tristan's change, I remembered that I had forgotten to tell them about the dinner. But I did tell Rania to visit my mansion tonight to introduce her to the others.
"Three potions, huh?" I muttered as I took a clear-pink potion that I hid in my inventory. I raised it and aligned it with the sun, making it glitter beautifully. "I lied about it."
I only gave Tristan 3 of them while I had all 5 created potions because I didn't want her to be a monster. Her body proportion wasn't fit enough to have E-Cup boobs; a C-Cup was enough.
"I can't imagine if someone who is only 160cm tall has E-Cup boobs…That's too much. And besides, Tristan is short, so having a C-Cup would be enough to boost her confidence. It will also be the same size that she had before as Isabelle, so I hope she will be satisfied."
As I walked down the street to return to the Academy, the potion was gone from my hand with a mote of blue light.
These potions were actually my order to my alchemist friend. I planned to give it to Tristan for her birthday present, but she was gone before I could give it to her. And at that time, I still procured the materials needed.
That was also the reason why I didn't go with her on her secret quest and felt really guilty and powerless. However, that also drove me to be stronger, as I was angry and killed all monsters in that dungeon, boosting my Level past 90 and making me want to be the strongest.
"I am glad I can give those potions to her," I muttered as I hummed in a good mood.
Everything went just like how I wanted it to. This bonus stage was truly a blessing for me, and I was happy. Still, I wanted to know the truth about what lay beyond the end of the world.
If what I saw at that time was something real, I needed to visit all world-end borders, just like Goddess Lilith said to me.
"I guess I will go on a journey to check them after the duel between Rania and Tristan. Oh, I also need to deal with the Royal Family."
Not only that but there was also the Pope. I wanted to meet and talk to her too.
"Well, the Holy City is close to the west edge, so I can stop by there after meeting with the Pope in the final to prepare to go to the World-End."
I was looking forward to it. But before that, I wanted to surprise Eliza a little bit.
"Let's make a little stop first."
