The Moonlight Swordsman

Chapter 309 Sir Lui Veron





"Here's what I want. If a mage from my Kingdom wins this competition, I want the priority of betting over the next battle. 

"None of you can ignore or deny it, especially you Lacaris. I am generous, right?" The Queen said.

[Master this bitch planning something]

But for that, their mages need to win the competition"

Lacaris kept a calm smile on his face and gave a small nod.

However, beneath his composed demeanor, his knuckles clenched tightly, betraying the intense emotions he felt within.

Now I really hope Ginger wins this,"

[It will be difficult but any other kingdom wins will also do us a favor]

"We have wasted a lot of time nowwww....Let's call upon the great alchemy mage "Sir Lui Veron."

Everyone looked at a man who was walking toward the stage.

He stood out amidst the crowd, dressed in a casual and comfortable shirt paired with half pants and simple sandals.

His hair was medium length and put in a small bun in a casual way. The dark circles under his eyes hinted at weariness.

"Sir Lui, how excited are you today to be the judge for this competition," Shoka asked.

"Huhhh...ummm.. Very,"

"Who do you think has the most chance of winning this competition?"

"Ummm... He rubbed his chin and yawned a little and replied, "Whoever brews the best potion,"

Shoka's brows twitched a little but he still maintain his smile.

"So which potion are you going to tell them to brew for this competition?"

As Sir Lui stepped forward, a hushed anticipation fell upon the participating mages. Their ears perked up, and their gazes locked onto him, eagerly awaiting his words.

"..... It will be Essence of Ethereal Vision," Sir Lui replied.

"Essence of Ethereal Vission, that's easy...

"So easy, I will definitely win...

"There might be some twists....

The participants' voices filled the stage as they engaged in animated chatter upon learning about the potion they were tasked with making.

"Tell us more about it, Sir Lui,"

"Ummm.... everyone will be provided the ingredients to brew the potion...

"Such as Iris petals...umm, the essence of sylphs whisper... what do we need more...

"huh... Lunar Lotus Pollen and magic crystals, that's all ingredients required to brew the potion."

"And what's the challenge in this Sir Lui?" Shoka asked.

"Umm... I don't know why you need to add more challenges just to brew potion... 

"Well like I care for it... oye bring that cage....

A person walked towards him and gave him a small box and then left the stage.

"There is a Last Stage Grade III Uglorious Shadow Ethereal entity inside of it. I have many more with me.

"The potion you make....ummm...should be effective so that you can break its illusion and see the monster clearly after drinking it.

"You will have to face the monster one on one. Now I know...um... many of you are not good in battle. 

"So I will give you a powder that you just have to throw on the monster and it will die instantly.I think you should take a look at

"So the twist is if their potion isn't effective and they can't see and kill the monster, they will dieeeeeeeeeeee." Shoka yelled.

"YEAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!"

"Ummm.... I can't understand why such talented mages need to die... but like I care," Sir Lui said while rubbing his chin.

"Whoever kills the monster fastest will win the competition..ummm.. remember there is no luck in this.

"Only the effects of your potion will be able to help you... so brew the best potion you can as if your life depends on it...wait a minute...umm... Yes, your life really depends on it."

"First take your position and take your time to brew your potion...um..don't rush to die early," 

Having said his piece, Sir Lui quietly left the stage.

He walked toward a designated sofa where he comfortably reclined and began to slumber, emitting deep, resonant snores that filled the vicinity.

"Ginger can do this right?" Aizel asked.

[We don't want to lose our potion maker that early]

"I believe in her, you should too Aizel," Daisy replied.

"I believe in her, I am just worried. What if... fuck why I am thinking like this,"

"Brewing the potion won't be a problem for her. In the end, how effective it will be against a Last Stage Uglorious Shadow," Seraphine said.

  "Is it difficult to kill that monster?" Aizel asked.

"Hmm.. It can't be perceived with normal eyes and have many illusions to play with its prey.

"Even your attacks won't do anything. Only some special methods can allow to kill that monster which targets its weak points.

"Interesting,"

"Now it depends, can Ginger perceive that monster and its attack with the help of a potion and can kill it with that powder that guy mentioned,"

Seraphine nodded.

Suddenly Shoka clicked his fingers and the stage started to expand and expand big enough for everyone. In front of them were many big pots, cauldrons, ingredients, tables, and equipment were placed.

The mages quickly moved to their tables, each one eager to commence their potion-making endeavors.

"Now let's commence the first competition of the INTERKINDOM TOURNAMENTTTTTT....

"YEAHHHH!!!!"

"YEAHHHH!!!!"

"YEAHHHH!!!!"

The announcement marked the start of the competition, igniting a fervent energy among the mages as they delved into their intricate potion-making rituals with meticulous precision and unwavering focus.

Hazel's deft fingers picked the delicate Iris Petals with elegant movements. The bright colors of the petals stood out against her steady touch. 

Gently, she ground the petals into a fine powder, harnessing the essence locked within their fragile beauty. 

Pouring the powdered petals into a silver cauldron, she added purified water, the liquid shimmering as it mingled with the potent floral concoction.

With utmost focus and precision, each mage in the competition began their potion-making process.

The stage was filled with hushed intensity as everyone understood the importance of taking their time.

No one wanted to be in a hurry and risk making their potion less effective. 

This was a task that required meticulous care and attention to detail.

The more effective potion was the only way to beat the ethereal creature that was waiting for them.
