"The amount of potion has decreased again!"
That evening, Morgan Le Fay looked at the bottle of pink aphrodisiac potion in the room. The amount in the bottle was clearly reduced by a tenth. Her eyes held a coldness. She hadn't expected anyone to dare to come to her room a second time.
"Good, no matter which rat it is, I'll catch it!" Looking at the potions on the bedside table, Morgan secretly made up her mind, her eyes filled with murderous intent. To dare to provoke her again and again... Good, very good!
On the evening of the third day, it was still raining incessantly. Artoria stared intently at Asher, watching him drink the fish soup in one gulp.
"How is it?" For the first time, a look of joy appeared in Artoria's normally calm eyes. She could roughly deduce from Asher's expression that this time, the fish soup should be quite successful.
"You've improved a lot, Lily is really amazing," Asher praised. The bowl of fish soup Artoria brought yesterday was full of problems, but today, she had managed to reach such a level. It was truly impressive. At least, Asher believed he couldn't do it in just two days.
"So, it's qualified?" Artoria asked.
"Qualified," Asher nodded, then looked at the girl in front of him with suspicion. Why did Lily's face look a little red?
"That's good then," Artoria lowered her head, taking the empty bowl from Asher. "I'll come find you tomorrow evening."
"Still fish soup...?" Asher tried to ask. Was Lily determined to stick with fish soup? If they had to make food, couldn't they try something else?
"Last time tomorrow night," Artoria looked up and said,
"A decisive battle."
It sounded as if she was going to duel someone. Although he didn't understand what Lily was up to, it was rare for her to be interested in things other than martial arts. Asher didn't want to dampen her enthusiasm, so he nodded and smiled, saying, "I'm looking forward to it."
Time unknowingly passed into the night.
"I never thought Lily would actually make fish soup."
Morgan Le Fay leaned back in the bath. In the warm
water, all the fatigue of the day seemed to melt away. She had spent almost the entire day in the magic workshop.
"Me neither, and she even went to consult the palace chefs," Guinevere clutched her chest, her fair toes lightly touching the water's surface as she stepped into the bath.
"She used to be obsessed with martial arts and military strategy, but now she seems to have changed a lot," Morgan looked at the smiling girl sitting beside her. Her skin was fair and supple, making one want to gently bite it.
Guinevere didn't continue the conversation. She only knew about Artoria's past from the people closest to her, but she didn't truly understand.
"Princess Morgan, I haven't seen you all day today. Were you busy with other things?" Guinevere asked softly.
"Sort of," Morgan said slowly. "I was refining the only bewitching potion in this world..." Her voice suddenly quieted. "Anyway, I was pretty busy."
"You must have worked hard." Guinevere was smart enough not to pry, a smile on her face. She noticed that Morgan's face suddenly showed a sadistic smile that only hunters exhibit when they've caught their prey.
"What happened?" Guinevere couldn't help but shiver a little. The aura Morgan was exuding at that moment was simply terrifying.
"A rat stepped into the trap," Morgan Le Fay put on her bathrobe, her perfect figure concealed within it. "I need to go see which rat snuck into my room."
When Morgan Le Fay returned to her room, as she expected, there was no sign of the "rat" in the room. But Morgan's goal from the beginning wasn't to trap the rat, but to find out which rat it was. She took out a bottle of white powdered potion and sprinkled it on the floor. In that instant, a faint light glowed in the dim room.
Immediately after, a figure gradually appeared before her. That figure quietly opened the door, called out something, and after confirming no one was there, walked into the room.
"Lily?" Morgan had just been thinking about how to get revenge on this rat, but upon seeing the girl, those thoughts abruptly vanished, and her face showed a look of surprise and uncertainty.
How did Lily end up in my room taking potions? Could it be... that she was making fish soup these past few days because Morgan's eyes flickered slightly, and she slowly exhaled, sitting on the edge of the bed. It seemed she needed to find time to talk to Lily.
She wasn't against Lily and Asher being together, but it shouldn't be so soon. The only reason she would make a move on Asher was because he was a boy, and once or twice wouldn't matter it was simply that she couldn't resist sneaking a taste.
But Lily was different; she was still young and shouldn't be doing such things so early. If she wasn't mistaken, she should be carrying the fish soup to Asher now, right?
Morgan looked up, lost in thought.
How should I guide Lily later?
She wasn't in a hurry to stop her sister now, because among the potions she had on her bedside table, two were aphrodisiacs: the pink and red ones. But the pink one was only effective on females, and what Lily took was precisely the pink one. In other words, even if Asher drank all the fish soup, it wouldn't have any effect.
"How should I guide my sister later?" Morgan fell into deep thought.
"Can I come in?" Asher was practicing Rune magic in his room when Artoria's voice came from outside the door. Even without thinking, he knew she had probably made fish soup again.
To be honest, Asher was getting tired of fish soup, but he really didn't want to dampen Artoria's enthusiasm, so he temporarily stopped practicing and said,
"Come in."
Artoria entered the room and placed the fish soup by the bedside.
"Drink it."
From her tone, it sounded like she was forcing someone to drink poison. Asher glanced at the fragrant fish soup. Although he was truly tired of it, he still picked up the bowl and drank a few sips, then nodded gently, praising,
"Mhm, the taste is even better than yesterday. You go back and rest first. I'll finish it later."
Artoria hesitated, then asked cautiously, "Can I stay a little longer?"
"Of course, you can leave whenever you want, it's still early anyway," Asher nodded readily. Artoria felt a weight lift from her heart. She didn't need Asher to drink all the potion. She had added a lot this time; just two or three sips should be enough. All she needed to do now was stay here. The last time it had no effect was probably because the dosage was too small. This time, she added nearly half!
Looking at Asher, who had started practicing Rune magic again, Artoria carefully observed his expression.
One minute, ten minutes, half an hour... Time unknowingly passed an hour.
"No effect...?" Artoria muttered to herself, somewhat astonished.
Did he not drink enough? No, that can't be... I added so much today, how could there be no effect? Did the potion lose its potency?
Knock knock.
Just as she thought of this, a knock suddenly came from the door. Then the door opened, and Morgan stood at the doorway, looking at Artoria.
"Lily, come to my room for a moment." Under Morgan Le Fay's gaze, Artoria's heart fluttered. She glanced at Asher, who looked natural, and finally lowered her head and stood up.
"What happened, Sister Morgan?" Asher asked, puzzled. He could sense that the atmosphere between the two sisters seemed a little strange.
"Nothing, I just want to have some sisterly bonding with Lily. You continue practicing," Morgan said with a smile, then led Artoria out of the room. Asher didn't pry. After watching them leave the room, he looked at the fish soup, which was still mostly full, and sighed.
There's still so much.
He decided to practice first. Asher raised his finger and continued his Rune magic practice.
Knock knock.
Not long after, a knock came from the door, followed by Scathach's voice.
"Disciple, may I come in?" After Asher said, "Please come in," Scathach pushed the door open and entered the room.
"Is something wrong, Shishou?" Asher looked up, unable to resist looking at Scathach twice. She was wearing one of the few outfits Asher had specially prepared for her yesterday. The dark red dress contrasted sharply with her fair skin, making one marvel at her beauty at first glance.
"Can't I come over if nothing's wrong?" Scathach teased with a smile in her voice.
"No, I welcome it. Shishou can come over anytime," Asher quickly added. "Besides, I've finished practicing for today."
Scathach nodded, her gaze sweeping around the room, soon landing on the bowl of fish soup by Asher's desk.
"Lily made you fish soup again today?"
"Yeah," Asher said helplessly. "If possible, I hope she can make something else next time."
"It gets tiresome eating the same thing repeatedly," Scathach said, understanding.
"I'll find a chance to tell her next time," Asher said, then thought for a moment. "Or how about Shishou drinks it for me? Lily would probably be sad if she saw I didn't finish it."
"You've already had some?" Scathach asked. Asher nodded gently. "I don't think Shishou would mind this, would you?"
"You understand me quite well," Scathach smiled, walked to the bedside, picked up the fish soup, and took a sip.
"It's a bit cold now, but the taste is pretty good, quite sweet," Scathach commented.
"Lily improves very quickly," Asher said.
"She has good talent in both cooking and martial arts."
As Scathach spoke, she drank all the fish soup, then glanced at Asher, who was still practicing Rune magic. "I won't disturb you for now. You continue practicing."
"Leaving so soon?" Asher looked up at Scathach, who had stood up. Scathach nodded. Ultimately, she had only come over because she happened to see Morgan Le Fay come to her disciple's room, but unexpectedly, Morgan left with Lily not long after. So, there was no need for her to stay and disturb her disciple's training.
Scathach began to leave the room, but just as she reached the doorway, she paused slightly.
Why suddenly...? Her chest felt as if flames were burning within her. Scathach's cheeks gradually flushed with a faint blush, and her red eyes stared at Asher, who was practicing Rune magic.
"Disciple," she called out, her gaze a little unfocused.
"Did you forget to say something, Shishou?" Asher looked up, puzzled.
"It seems you haven't fully Mastered your Rune magic, have you?" Scathach slowly walked back and sat on the bedside. She first lowered her gaze, then quickly raised her eyes to stare at Asher.
Just this simple action, however, stirred Asher's heart. He had no idea his Shishou could possess such charm. Just a look made it impossible to tear his eyes away, as if it was captivating his soul.
"Of course. Didn't Shishou say before that Shishouing all Rune magic isn't that simple? One must build a solid foundation before practicing new Rune magic," Asher said, lowering his head. He didn't dare to look at Scathach, because he could feel the warning light in his heart had turned from green to rapidly flashing red.
"Why are you looking down when you speak?" Scathach's voice lingered in Asher's ears. Without giving Asher a chance to speak, Scathach cupped Asher's face, staring into his eyes.
"Shishou, have you been drinking?" Asher felt his heart rate uncontrollably quicken, and his voice became somewhat hoarse.
"I'm perfectly normal. It's just your imagination," Scathach smiled faintly. But this normally calm smile now brimmed with temptation, for as she smiled, her eyes shone with desire, and the blush on her face significantly enhanced her charm.
"I'll teach you new Rune magic now. Do you want to learn?" Scathach had already raised her finger as she spoke.
"Rune magic that can bind others."
