Combat Maid Harem

Chapter 226 – A Potion Store

While he was waiting, he entered their room and sat on the bed. He examined his staff once again.

Lawrend waited for almost half an hour when Amene and Grape arrived while following behind Aezel. They were all wearing their maid uniforms while they had hoods over their heads to cover their cat ears.

"Master, you called for us?" Amene asked.

"Mm. The two of you watch over the mansion. I and Aezel will go out for a while," Lawrend replied.

"Yes, Master. We will take care of the mansion," Grape replied.

Lawrend then stood up from the bed and exited the room. Amene and Grape escorted the two of them outside the mansion.

"Take care, Master and Sister Aezel!"

"Be careful, Master and Miss Aezel!"

Amene and Grape waved their hands in the air.

Lawrend walked out with Aezel. They rode in a carriage. Once inside, Lawrend turned to Aezel.

"Fufufu. I guess you saw it?" Aezel asked in confirmation.

"I did. You enjoyed it even though you bled?" Lawrend asked her in confusion.

"Fufufufu. I didn't know that I had that kink before I met you, Master," Aezel replied with a smile.

"Again?"

Lawrend face palmed himself. Was he really that influential? All of them used the same words. 'It was his fault.'

"Huh?" Aezel raised her head and blinked at Lawrend.

"Nothing, nothing. I just thought of something," Lawrend replied awkwardly.

The inside of the carriage became silent. They continued riding the carriage until they stopped in front of a tall building.

"We're here?" Lawrend asked in surprise. It didn't feel that long for him.

Aezel nodded her head and exited the carriage. Lawrend followed behind her.

There were the words, "Kajideen's Potion Store" painted on the sign.

"How did you know about this place?" Lawrend asked her in surprise.

Aezel shouldn't know such a place since she's a demon.

"I bought potions here before, Master," Aezel replied.

"You did?" Lawrend looked at her in amazement. It seems like he underestimated her. She's a demon, yes, but that doesn't mean that she doesn't live like a human here.

"Mm. Let's enter inside okay? I will show you what I bought," Aezel said before she grabbed his hand and pulled him inside.

They entered the store. It had a wooden counter all around the store and various medicines were displayed on shelves behind those counters. Staffs were standing and waiting for customers to come near them.

"Hello customers, what would you like to buy?" A skinny and short woman mage in a blue cloak greeted them with a smile.

"I would like a potion that can numb pain and a recovery potion," Lawrend replied.

"Follow me. I will go get them for you," the woman beckoned them with her hands.

"Master, that's what I bought." Aezel pointed to a medicine bottle on the shelves.

It had the label, "Nutrient Supplements For Mothers."

"Ohh! You are really caring for the baby," Lawrend said to her with a smile.

Realizing that she really cares for their baby, warmed Lawrend's heart. He felt even more pressure to find a way to solve their problem. If he failed, Aezel would surely be forced to either kill him or kill the baby. He was sure that she would choose to kill him instead.

After all, she was such a perfect mother right now. Lawrend stared at her in a daze.

"Master? Master!" Aezel called out to him.

"A-Ah! Yeah? What is it?" Lawrend broke free from his daze in confusion.

"You have been staring at the shelves and squeezing my hands all this time," Aezel said with an innocent look on her face.

"It was nothing. I just thought how good of a mother you are," Lawrend said to her with a smile.

"Fufufufu. It's one of my best qualities," Aezel replied with her head raised proudly.

The staff who greeted them earlier looked at them awkwardly. She was a single woman. Seeing a couple flirt in front of her made her feel awkward.

She then led them to one of the counters.

"Gerald, this mister here wants a Desensitizing Potion and a Healing Potion," the staff said to the male mage behind the counter. The items she just said were the correct names of the potions Lawrend just said.

He never had any interest in potions, so he had no idea what they are called.

"I got it." The male staff nodded his head and left. He looked through the shelves and got what Lawrend needed.

"Here, sir."

The male staff pushed a potion vial and a potion tube(a test tube) towards Lawrend. One was the Desensitizing Potion while the other is the Healing Potion.

"Do you have more? I think I need 100 of each," Lawrend said.

"…"

The male staff stared at Lawrend in shock.

"Sir, this one potion is 200 gold—"

"Did I stutter?" Lawrend interrupted.

"N-No…" The male staff shook his head and entered the door leading inside their storage room.

He came back out with a big box. The male staff placed it on the counter.

"This contains exactly 100 bottles of Desensitizing Potion," the male staff said.

Lawrend pulled the box closer to him and opened it. He looked at its contents. There were five stacks of the potion vials inside. Each stack had a layer that had 20 vials each. For a total of 100 vials in the box.

While Lawrend was doing that, the male staff also grabbed a box of the Healing Potion. This time, he had to go inside twice as the Healing Potion is much bigger. In total, there were three boxes in front of Lawrend.

"How much is all of these?" Lawrend asked.

"Since you bought the Desensitizing Potions in bulk, we offer you a 10% discount for them. In total, your bill is 120,000 gold," the male staff said.

"Wow…" Lawrend exclaimed in shock.

Even he himself doesn't have that much fortune.

"How about I pay half? You can claim the other half in this address tomorrow," Lawrend said as he gave him the address to Humility's mansion.
