Chapter 618 Nao, The Potion Master

‘Now where is Nao…’ Lawrend thought to himself.

He carried Ramiela in his arms in a princess carry. He carried her down from the rooftop and headed to her room.

Lawrend tried to think about where Nao would go. She was a butler that could create potions. Well, there was only one place in the city where someone could create potions without worrying about any explosion.

“She’s in the Mage Guild.”

Lawrend dropped Ramiela on her bed in her room and left. He exited the castle once again, but this time, he flew up to the sky. He arrived in front of the Mage Guild within a few seconds.

The mages around looked at him. It was forbidden to fly in the Royal Capital, after all. Instantly, many of them recognized him.

“It’s him! The Emperor is here!” someone shouted.

By now, everyone had already heard about the news of Lawrend taking over the Blumin Empire. His fame was hard to not know unless someone literally lived under a rock like Patrick, the starfish.

“Emperor!”

“Emperor, please teach us magic!”

“Emperor–”

Lawrend was asked bursts of questions. He didn’t understand any of them as they swarmed him like bees.

“Move away. I’m not here to teach magic. I’m here to pick up my butler,” Lawrend said.

The crowd of mages immediately moved away. They were afraid of angering him. Lawrend was satisfied seeing their obedience and entered the Mage Guild.

Similar to the outside, there were a lot of mages inside. Some of them stopped and glanced at Lawrend before shaking their heads. They couldn’t believe he was there.

Of course, many mages also followed behind him from outside. They couldn’t say anything, but it was hard to know if they were following Lawrend or not because he was heading towards one of the counters.

“Hello, is Nao here?” Lawrend asked the receptionist.

It was a woman, and she froze after seeing him.

“Y-Y-You are…” she stuttered.

“I’m Lawrend,” he replied.

“Yes, Emperor!”

The receptionist ran away from her post and went to fetch Nao. Lawrend waited for a minute, and the receptionist came back with Nao.

She wore an apron over her butler uniform. She looked like a chef butler. Couple with her long hair, she looked cool and cute at the same time.

“Master!” Nao ran to him and embraced him.

She missed him very much. Even though she wasn’t that close to him, she still liked him. Just like the others, she thought about him a lot every day.

Lawrend rubbed her back and pushed her away. He stared at her messy apron and understood that she was working hard on her potions.

“How much progress have you made?” Lawrend asked.

“I’m a High Mage now, Master. It’s becoming easier and easier to create potions,” Nao replied with a smile on her face.

“That’s great. You’re improving very fast. Soon, you will be an Arch Mage,” Lawrend replied.

“Thank you, Master. It’s thanks to your teachings and for you modifying my mana pathways, hehe.”

Nao slightly blushed at the mention of him modifying her mana pathways. That moment for them was very hot and erotic. She remembered what they did back then.

“Let me see your work.”

“Yes, Master. Follow me.”

Nao led the way inside the mage guild. The mages in front of the reception desks realized who Lawrend was and wanted to exclaim, but the others from outside shushed them just before they did so.

In short, Lawrend was able to have a peaceful experience.

Nao arrived in front of a door and unlocked it with a key. The two of them entered inside, and Lawrend scanned the whole room.

There were shelves and shelves of potion bottles. Most of them contained liquid inside them.

“Were you trying out different mixtures?” Lawrend guessed.

“Correct, Master. I tried slightly modifying the recipes and kept them for future references,” Nao replied.

She brought him in front of a desk in the room. There were many ingredients lined up all around it. Some were on tables on both sides of the desk, and others were on the floor.

Overall, it was very messy in appearance.

“You have so many ingredients. Some of them I’ve never heard before.”

Lawrend was impressed by her dedication to potions. It seemed like his hard work teaching and helping her was a great success. She was now a true potion master.

“Do you have any successful products?” Lawrend asked.

Nao opened a drawer and grabbed a bottle from inside. It was filled with a semi-transparent red liquid. It had a similar appearance to cranberry juice.

“This. It’s an aphrodisiac,” Nao said and passed the bottle to him.

“What do you want me to do with this?” Lawrend asked.

“M-Me…”

Nao blushed after saying those words.

“Hoh?”

Lawrend was amused at her boldness. She was rarely like this.

“Who told you to make this?”

Lawrend understood her well. He knew that she wouldn’t make something like this. One of his maids must’ve asked her to make one.

“Sister Humility told me to make one for us.”

“I knew it. So, how strong is it?” Lawrend asked as he swished the liquid around.

“You will go on for 24 hours,” Nao answered with a red face.

“Hmm… Are you sure you can last for 24 hours?” Lawrend asked with a slight smirk on his face.

Seeing his smirk made Nao’s heart skip a beat. She couldn’t help but imagine that and took a deep breath. She had heard her Sister Aleshia and the others discuss about the effects of an aphrodisiac.

Ever since Lawrend ravaged Ember like a monkey, every one of his maids wanted him to do it to them like that. It was their wet dream to suffer from Lawrend’s maximum penetration abilities.

“Anything else that succeeded?”

“Mm. There is a potion that could speed my absorption of mana two times better than the conventional recipe.”

“Good. Alright. I will give you your reward,” Lawrend said.
