Lord Of Succubi:Transmigrated As A Dual Cultivator In Isekai Of Magic

Chapter 96 Chapter 96 Elixir

Effortlessly, he pulled upwards, loosening the soil below, and breaking the Icecore Grass free.

Overhead, the gibbous moon's rays broke free from beyond the ambush of storm clouds. From the skies right down to the earth, arrows of silver streaks shot out, covering the entire arena in a warm glow of pale silvery light.

On Nexus' forehead, lines of sweat began to form.

His face glistened with sweat under the moon, as he undertook the daunting task of reaping the field by himself- with no tools.

A short while later, without stopping for breaths or pausing intermittently for a short break, Nexus had managed to rip out a decent portion of the field. Next to him, the bundle was piled high. Its Blueish green looked next to black under the moonlight.

"System, take this whole pile into the spatial storage system, and bank it for much later!"

[AFFIRMATIVE.]

In a second, it was all gone.

The pile had disappeared.

Nexus stretched his back, and heard it snap back into place with a cracking sound.

And then, he withdrew himself away from that area completely.

Half an hour later, a blazing campfire literally appeared out of nowhere. Next to the bonfire, Nexus had set up his own sleeping bag, and was settled in comfortably.

Gazing up at the stars, with a dreamy look on his face, and with the wild fire cackling beside him, he mentally checked all the boxes he needed to check;

"Seriously. . .I can't believe no one's discovered the secret of this phenomenal grass. . ."

His mind went back to all the pharmacies he had checked while job hunting;

". . .not even the top range pharmacies had them. . .I might just be the only one in possession of this knowledge. . .well, at least I'm not some foreign spy sent to hack their resserves. . .I can take full advantage of this situation without feeling some type of way."

Sleep began to creep in, steadily pulling down his drooping eyelids, slowing his breaths, and mulling his mind. Nexus welcomed the doze gladly. That night, he dreamt one of his favorite dreams to have- he had a shit ton of money and was rolling in them vibrantly.

-----------------------

Morning came quicker than expected.

Noiselessly, Nexus' eyes fluttered open like a flirting butterfy.

He was on his sides, his right hands was under his head, his other hand was resting on his thigh, and his both his legs were curved at a forty five degree elevation. His whole body stretched into consciousness, and he turned over- catching the full glare of the risen sun right in his naked eyes.

"Damn it!" he howled aloud.

His sun-struck, blurry vision finally settled, and his eyes readjusted to the light of the sun.

"Shit, I really slept through the night without stirring huh?"

He did.

Nexus was that tired.

Next to him, where the burning fire had been was nothing but a pile of smoldering ash. He sat on and took in the view. On all sides, the open grassland stretched out before him was every bit as resplendent as he remembered it.

In the sea of blue and green, the tall blades of Icecore Grass swayed slightly under the influence of the shifting wind. In the sky above, the fiery golden ball had risen to a decent level- showering the entire landscape with its light.

Nexus was up on his feet in a minute.

He felt refreshed!

The bags had disappeared from under his eyes. The bloodshot look in his face had ebbed almost completely. Color had returned to his cheeks, and his rosy countenance glowed under the sun.

After stretching his limbs, he did a couple of push ups, a few sit ups, and some light jogging on the spot. Then, he had some beef jerky for breakfast, and bounded off towards Castra- the city that would make him wealthy.

-------------------------

"System, what's the move?" his voice echoed into the lonely road as he approached the outskirts of the city;

"What's the special way to make the Icecore elixir?"

He was already within trekking distance to the city's commercial center, but and he wanted to make sure everything was all good before he stepped in.

[USING THE RAW MATERIAL BANKED IN THE SPATIAL STORAGE, THE SYSTEM HAS SUCCESSFULLY MANUFACTURED A THOUSAND VIALS OF THE ICECORE ELIXIR.]

Nexus' smile was as wide as the sun above.

"Shit, nice work system! Sorry for fuckin' about yesterday. I didn't mean it when I said I wanted to kick your arse. . ."

Of course the system didn't reply, but that didn't stop Nexus from continuing his monologue;

". . .I can't just walk into town, and buy a shop and start selling. . .I need to get a lay out of the land first. . .yes. . .I need to get a proxy through which I can use to test the waters. . ."

His eyes twinkled as he hit the jackpot;

"I NEED A SUPPLIER!!!"

Lightning sparked through out his being- gifting him the electrifying feeling that came with being a man on a mission. Approaching the city, and striding with the confident strut of self assured man, Nexus' steps suddenly came to a halt in the middle of the road.

With nothing but abandoned real estate on both sides of the road, Nexus straightened out his garments right there. Using his hands he brushed up his hair, and bundled it into a neat pony tail.

He chuckled to himself as he cleaned up his bearded face;

"I damn near forgot I had a fake face on. . ." he touched his soft wisps of hair growth on his soft face;

". . .I guess I'll be holding on to Ni Yang for a while longer. . .just to be safe from prying eyes and nosy people."

It was a smart gambit.

"Now, now, I'll certainly need some samples. System, hand me a few vials of the stuff."

[AFFIRMATIVE.]

From the spatial storage, Nexus extracted a few vials of the elixir.

He held up a single vial up to the sky- examining it in the sun. The system had packaged it properly in transparent glass vials that were barely the length of his forefinger.

In the light of the sun, the sparkling liquid shone with a deep sea green- or blue, depending on the point of view. It shimmered with the flashiness of a coruscating liquid. Really, it was every bit as inviting as candy to a baby.

"The system really outdid itself with this shit. Damn."

Nexus lowered it away from the sun, and began to stash them away in different compartments of his combat pants.

"There's no way any sound business savvy person would pass up this opportunity."

He pressed on with the glass vials jingling against each other in his pocket.

--------------------

A short while later, Nexus entered the commercial hub of the city.

The smell- Nexus had forgotten the smell.

It was like a cacophony of different scents. The spicy food from road side vendors curled up from their food carts and saturated the air with the sizzling mouth watering smells. Perfumes and oils of every kind, and of every shade curled out of the stalls and wafted through the throng.

All of that, combined with a host of other goods, colluded together and rolled up into the atmosphere.
