Chapter 136: Last Sale II

“Ladies and Gentlemen. What you just drank is the newest creation that we made. It is called Moonshine. Drinking a glass of Moonshine allows one to enter a state of enhanced sensitivity and perception, about 50% increase that will last for four hours based on my judgements. This product is this Old Man’s little gift for you for attending our last sale.”

The hall was silent after Richard’s words. Although there already had an idea on what the effects are, they still couldn’t help but be stunned when he heard him describe it. What a phenomenal drink! It had to be known that consumables that could elevate one’s senses and perception are extremely rare! Owing such item would cost a tremendous amount if wealth, even those who bought won’t casually use these items, yet Richard magnanimously given everyone not only a glass of it, but an entire bottle! This must’ve cost him all of his wealth! It seems that this will truly be his last sale and contribution.

“If there’s any misgivings that I have for Moonshine, it would be the fact that drinking multiple servings doesn’t create any additional effect. In the end, we could only adjust the ingredients used. As a result, even though it’s a liquor, no one will develop any sort of tolerance from it. Each time you drink it would be similar to the first time. We also planned on selling it for only 1 gold card, at least that way, everyone gets to enjoy it.”

Hearing Richard sigh in disappointment about his complaints about Moonshine, was akin to a resounding slap in their faces. This old man was so insincere, he already managed to create a world shaking liquor yet he was still unsatisfied!At the same time, hearing him say that he will sell these at such a low price caused a huge explosion on their heads.

“1 gold card!? How come? That’s so cheap!”

“I know! In my opinion this should worth at least a several hundred of gold cards, not a single one!”

“Oh you merchants sure are evil! Esteemed Richard already said that he will only sell them for 1 gold card! Why don’t you just respect his decision?”

“Hmph! You’re just saying that because you won’t be able to afford it once it passed a certain price.”

“Y-you!”

Noises of discussions and arguments immediately filled the hall, almost everyone was expressing their own opinions about Richard’s decision. Some were saying that he should raise the price so that he could at least have some retirement funds. Some wanted it to remain cheap so that they could afford as many as they could and give it to their descendants, without a doubt this will raise their efficiency of training by at least twofold while only exerting half the effort.

“Please calm down everyone.” Richard spoke and silenced the crowd. “I know that you only want the best for us, but our decision to sell it this cheap won’t change. Our goal is to have as many people enjoy it.”

“Esteemed Richard, may I ask if our clan could purchase a hundred bottles of Moonshine? I am willing to pay at a moment’s notice.” A man from a noble background raised his hands and asked Richard. The crowd erupted into a frenzy once more, that’s because just after this man expressed his desire to purchase Moonshine, the rest also did the same thing. Richard smile wryly at this scene, he raised his hand once more and said.

“Placing orders will occur later in this event, why don’t we move on first? This old man has more in store for you people.” He then looked at Anne and said, “Would you like to do the honors Young Miss?”

Anne stepped forward and smiled, she bowed towards Richard and replied,

“It would be my pleasure Director.”

She then faced the crowd and flashed a sweet smile that captured at least a few hearts of the young men present in the event.

“Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen, my name is Anne Fiore, student of the current batch of Genius Class of Heavenly Cloud Institute, and I will be your hostess for today’s event.”

“Before we start today’s event, I would like to inform you about some important details to pay attention to.”

“First would be the fact that, Moonshine isn’t only the product that we are showing today. Since this may very well be the pavilion’s last showcase, Director Richard went all out so please sit down and relax. I guarantee that everyone won’t regret attending this event.”

“Another thing, we would be more than happy to sell all of our products with everyone here but we have to follow a thorough process. The said process will be revealed later but the gist is that we have to secure that anyone who will get their hands on our products are genuine citizens of our kingdom.”

Anne paused after saying this, letting the crowd remunerate on her words. Seeing that no one had violent reactions about it, she turned around and gestured towards one of the servants. Two people nodded and brought a golden platter that has a set of silver colored vials on top of it. They carefully placed it on top of a stand beside Anne and went back to their posts.

Anne then faced the crowd and spoke: “Everyone, I introduce to you the Body Restoration Fluids. I figured that it would be best to see it’s effects first before further discussion. Would anyone like to participate in a little experiment?”

As soon as she asked this question, at least couple dozen of hands were raised, most of them came from teenager guys who thought that this would be a good chance for them to gain a favorable impression from Anne.

“What a bunch of sluts…” Ellen whispered within the crowd. Thankfully no one heard her or else Bradley would have a difficult time.

“This brother.” Anne pointed onto a random person who’s raising his hand, “Please come up to the stage.”

The chosen guy smiled like an idiot and nodded repeatedly, he can’t help but to puff up his chest a little. In his mind, he was drowning with the thought that, out of dozens of guys who wished to participate, she chose him. Unfortunately, Anne doesn’t share the same thoughts…

‘He looks extremely weak. He’ll be tired easily, perfect to use a guinea pig.’Still wearing her sweet and seductive smile, she asked: “Would you mind showing off some of your techniques with us? Just a couple of moves will suffice.”

The youth almost had a raging hard on when he heard her delicate urging, he nodded like a horny rabbit and enthusiastically took out his sword and executed some of the moves he learned. Judging from the energy fluctuations around him, he went all out and displayed his strongest techniques one after another. He managed to execute five moves at the most before stopping due to exhaustion. He felt dizzy and weak already but he didn’t mind, if his exhaustion will garner a favorable thought from this goddess in front him, it was well worth it.

“Everyone, please observe his state carefully.” Anne’s voice echoed at the hall, she then stepped forward and moved closer to the youth. The youth’s heart sped up, he nearly fainted from exhaustion and too much stimulation that Anne unconsciously radiates. She got very close to him, so close that their faces were inches away. Everyone’e heart sped up, but what happened next went out of their expectations.

Anne grabbed the collar of the youth and lifted him up like she was picking a dress. She then flashed a sweet smile before tossing him onto a barrel full of water. Everyone was dumbfounded, some even laughed at the scene. The youth was specially struck dumb.

“What gives?” He moaned in frustration, for a second there he thought that he’s finally going to become an adult but his dreams were shattered by the cold temperature of water drenching his entire body.Anne did not reply, instead she uncorked a Body Restoration Fluid and poured all of it’s contents in the barrel.

“You’re exhausted right? Take this time to recuperate in there.” Anne said before stepping back.

The youth was puzzled but did her instructions anyway. And when he did, he almost couldn’t believe what he felt. Without even urging it consciously, his body took initiative to greedily suck the medicinal efficacy on the waters.

The people who were observing, specifically the experts, saw and felt this scene and was instantly shocked. From their perspective, this recovery was simply too astonishing! They could also feel that the youth’s body was being constantly strengthened while he soaked in there. Others are puzzled by their reactions but when they heard their explanations, they too were similarly shocked. What a frightening medicine! But also what a waste! Of all the people who would have the luck to experience this, it would be that youth over there. They can’t help but become slightly envious.

Five minutes later, the youth stood up. Not even minding that he clothes were still dripping with water, he inspected his body and has yet to close his mouth in shock.

“Everyone, you’ve all seen it first hand. This is the effect of the Body Restoration Fluid. It speeds up the body’s recovery from exhaustion while simultaneously strengthening it. The more the body is exhausted, the more effective this product gets.”
