462 I give no second chances to trash
Until the last day of the week, Vincent only found one non-story book. It was about different types of fertilizer and compost. However, it was about fertilizer made from magic beasts or plants he had never heard of.
That Friday, Vincent went to the physical class while Lilith went to the history class with Nick, Clair, and Jun Ye Rim.
Nick and Clair promptly agreed to go with Lilith and make sure she didn’t feel uncomfortable. After getting to know Lilith and her condition, the two of them were reassuring.
On the other hand, Jun Ye Rim agreed to stay near Lilith. But she made it seem as if Vincent begged her to accompany Lilith.
*Day 131 – 17 October – Saturday*
Saturday arrived, and today Lilith woke up first. She didn’t sleep too much after often waking up and looking at the time.
Lilith was impatient to get her hands on the potion she had never dreamt of having before she was saved. Her impatience surprised everyone around her. This was the first time Lilith wanted to go somewhere with lots of people.
They went early in the morning to visit the potion store and Honey. However, to their dismay, there were already teens leaving with a frown.
The curious Kazumi went ahead and overheard one of the teens mentioning how the slimming potion was already out of stock and how it cost three times to preorder it because it is the most selling potion.
.....
Kazumi glanced at the teen’s hand, and there was a ticket with the number twenty on it. Lilith had to wait for a long, long time before it was her turn.
[Hey Vincent. This girl has the number twenty, and she didn’t manage to buy a potion. Seeing how excited Lilith was this morning, I think it would be best to get the slimming potion Honey mentioned last week.]
[I don’t think a soon-to-be-expired potion will have disastrous side effects. You can heal Lilith if anything happens either way.]
Vincent looked at Lilith. “Lilith... I have bad news to tell you.”
“Bad... news?” Lilith frowned as if she knew it was about the potion.
“The potion you want is already out of stock, but there is still the potion we talked about last week. Maybe she saved it for you.” Vincent said, hoping Lilith’s cheerful mood didn’t become sour.
Ester, “Don’t worry, Lilith, there is no hurry. We don’t mind the way you look.”
Lupa *Woof* [No drink for sister Lilith? I bite her ass!]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIris, “I can make you a refreshing herbal drink that can make you healthy.”
Lilith felt reassured to hear Ester and Iris’s support. She noticed Vincent frown at Lupa, which meant she most likely said something about starting a fight because of her.
“Thank you, everyone. ” Lilith said. She held Vincent’s hand and asked him to approach Honey.
“Good morning, sexy Vincent and lucky girl Lilith.” *Wink* “I can see the harem gave the two lovebirds some space, hehe.” Honey teased.
She tapped the desk-like windowsill and continued, “I am regretful to ruin your happy mood, but the slimming potions and the bloody heart pump potions are out of stock.”
“The slimming potions are sold out because less than twenty were sold. Some darn students like to sell them at a higher price later. Regrettably, for me, I can’t increase the price of the potions as I please because I would have no customers after a while.”
“On the other hand, we didn’t increase our bloody heart pump potion stock. Unexpectedly, two students came early in the morning and bought the remaining stock. When I asked, I heard sexy Vincent’s name as the reason.” *Wink* “Thank you for selling our unsellable stock.” *Wink*
[I saw one classmate from the physical class walking with another student from Class B this morning. The two of them had a red potion in their hands while smiling. They must be the ones to have made the purchase after watching you try to get used to the new stat growth.]
-I am lucky to have bought ten potions then.-
*Wink* “Fret, not lucky girl, Lilith. I have the slimming potion we spoke about last week.” Honey said, yet her playful smile became serious for a moment. As if there was a problem.
“Is there something wrong with the potion?” Vincent asked out of concern.
“Yes. I had found a slimming potion behind an ingredient box. I thought it was still good. That is why I mentioned it last week.”
*Sigh* “But when I asked Eros if it was good to drink, he told me it is expired and drinking it will have a small chance of giving a stomach ache. But it should be a minor inconvenience because it will work as intended.” Honey said.
“I’ll take it.” Lilith didn’t back down. She believed a little stomach ache would not hinder her goal of losing weight.
[Looks like Lilith made her choice.]
Vincent, “...”
“Okay, lucky girl Lilith. It will be three points as agreed.” Honey said. She shamelessly asked to be paid for an expired potion.
However, Honey didn’t mention how the alchemist Eros told her to throw it away. Sometimes it is better to listen to a professional’s advice.
After the transaction was completed, Honey placed the potion on the desk-like windowsill. Vincent focused his gaze and looked at its stats.

[Name] Rejuvenating Potion
[Grade] Uncommon
[Description]
A potion made by Eros Rafael Bellini. Rejuvenating Potion will help the user become healthier and lose unwanted fat. This potion is best taken on an empty stomach.
[Effect]
*Fast Metabolism (60min)
*Fast Digestion (60min)
*Fast Energy Expenditure (60min)
*Fast Bowel Movement (120min)
.
-I don’t see a negative status.-
[It might be the Fast Bowel Movement. But the unwanted waste needs to go somewhere. Otherwise, the fat would magically melt.]
While Vincent and Kazumi considered whether it was safe to let Lilith drink or return the potion, Lilith swiftly grabbed the potion and chugged it in one go.
*Burp* “Oops, sorry.” Lilith blushed. A smile soon appeared on her face. “I want to run on my feet in the track race next time. I don’t want to remain slow and have to be helped like when we went to Oken Village. I want to be by your side and help instead of being helped all the time.”
*Growl* “I think I am hungry now.” Lilith said immediately.
[The potion had many buffs to make someone feel hungry. I guess we can let Lilith eat something. Paradise Heart park isn’t too far of a walk from here. We can go to eat something there.]
“Let’s go to eat something then. ” Vincent said before leaving to find a place to sit.
A few minutes later, Lilith’s stomach kept grumbling. Even after eating a small salad, she began to sweat, and her condition didn’t look too great.
“Let’s go back. I think Lilith needs to go to the bathroom.” Ester insisted.
“Sister Lilith’s face looks pale. I need to use some of the grown herbs for a healthy drink.” Iris continued.

-What happened?-
[Kilo Blackheart is approaching us, and it doesn’t look unintentional.]
“Hey lovebirds... or should I say pig lover, bugger off, you are tainting my eyes. ” Kilo said. He crossed his arms. Behind him were his servant and a couple of other students with their servants behind them.
“Look how sweaty she is. Yuck!” One of the students beside Kilo said.
[Does he think you are going to challenge him again? I say we should kick his ass this time.]
Vincent stood up and requested politely, with his fingers cracking as if they wanted to clench into a fist, “You should apologize. Didn’t I say that the last time we met? Or do you have a bird brain?”
Ester, Lupa, and Iris became angry while Plow licked Lilith’s hand to help her feel better.
Ester stood beside Vincent and glared at Kilo.
Lupa viciously barked as if she wanted to paint the stone-tiled ground red.
Iris frowned, yet she kept holding Lilith’s hand for support.
The three of them looked like they wanted to fight.
The audience gathered quickly as they knew something like this was about to happen. They looked at both sides and wondered if there was going to be another contest. The last one they made was exciting.
“Why is your servant glaring at us? I will teach her a lesson of how to respect a noble.” Another one of the students moved forward and raised his hand to slap Ester’s face.
Vincent’s patience snapped. His anger became uncontrollable, and his eyes gleamed green. Bloodlust seeped from his body, and his glare became intimidating.
“I gave you all one chance not to insult my wife again. When I asked politely, you human trash dare to hit my wife.” Vincent slapped his hand away from Ester’s face.
“Did you think I would challenge you to another stupid contest? I give no second chances to trash.” Vincent said while his domination aura spread by a few meters. It could be felt by everyone who wasn’t his retainer or familiar, and their bodies started shivering.
“What is happening? Why is our body shivering?”
“Look at Kilo Blackheart and those around him. They are sweating and heavy breathing. I think it is because of Vincent Lionheart.”
“No way! Is his intimidation intent this potent? Isn’t he a first-year?”
Some of the audience left, while those that remained felt fear and intimidation. Yet they understood something was about to happen, and it excited them.
[Vincent, calm down! You have become possessed by rage again!]
