The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 342 342 - Potion

Aiden was now on his way back toward the wooden cabin, his mind currently going through his plan one last time.

He wanted to make sure that there was no way that he would fail the assassination, and it all depended on one thing and one thing only, those vials that he had in his hands.

He could only hope that everything would work. He knew that it had worked on Evelynn, in fact, a little too well so he wasn't too worried about that part at all.

'Wait, I forgot to find a solution to her mana problem!' Aiden realized as he was still flying away. 'Well, it's late now.'

Aiden knew that there was no other choice, he knew that David would probably be waking up soon, or maybe he had already woken up. As for Garestsa, she would soon be arriving at the wooden cabin to continue her training.

'Let's just make all of this work!' Aiden prayed in his mind, completely forgetting about Evelynn for the moment.

He would focus on her problem after he had finished his Trial Objective, that was his plan. He knew that he would probably gone before being able to meet her again which would mean that he would have to come back to this world.

"Let's just hope that she doesn't believe everything that she hears about me," Aiden told himself as he knew that she would probably be wondering why many people would talk about the director's death.

And since Aiden and Garestsa were the only ones with direct contact with him… well… the suspect would be extremely obvious since Aiden wouldn't be in that world anymore.

As Aiden was about to arrive at the top of the mountain, he saw the figures of two people swinging their daggers mindlessly. They both looked at Aiden with a strange look in their eyes.

"Where were you?" David asked right away as this was the first time that Aiden hadn't been in the wooden cabin when he had woken up. He had found it quite weird, however, he knew that there could be many reasons as to why something like that happened.

"I just went to pick up something for your training, a little potion that would make this whole training a lot more efficient," Aiden replied as he knew that the two of them would be interested immediately.

A potion that would accelerate their growth, that was basically what Aiden had just said, right? There was no way that they would be refusing such a thing, in fact, they seemed excited to see what it would be like.

lightsnοvεl Aiden quickly landed on the ground as he slowly got closer to them with two blue vials in his hands.

"Are those the potions?" David asked as he had an idea as to what those potions might be.

They strangely looked like the potion that they had first crafted when Aiden had tried to learn Alchemy.

"They are." Aiden smiled.

David was intrigued as he was almost sure that those potions would be increasing their mana output. However, what would be his reaction when learning that it was actually completely the opposite?

"And how are those two little things supposed to help our growth? What are the effects of those potions?" David asked as Garestsa got closer wanting to hear what it would be too.

Aiden had already prepared every single answer to all the possible questions, so it was quite easy to answer them. In fact, it was extremely simple.

"They will restrict your access to your mana for one hour," Aiden said, completely lying while keeping a straight face. 

He knew that for his plan to work he would have to lie, a lot for that matter. There were many things that depended on that ability.

"Restrict our access to mana!" The two of them shouted at the same time as they had never heard anything like this in the past.

It was mindblowing, they had never thought that something like that could even exist in the first place.

"Is that really possible?" David asked a question before asking another right behind. "How will that help us?"

'Just as I had planned,' Aiden mused as those were all the questions that he had expected to receive, so it was quite nice for him to have all the answers prepared.

"It is, I made this potion with Anna a couple of days ago. At least, I gave the idea a couple of days ago, and we made it work. It really is possible!" Aiden exclaimed with a huge smile on his face.

This smile wasn't fake as he was extremely happy with the success of his collaboration with Anna.

"You worked with Anna on this? When? How?" David was dumbfounded, not understanding that such a thing was even possible.

There was simply no way that he could have found time to do this, Aiden was always with David. They trained and slept together, so how couldn't he have known about this?

"Oh, I told her earlier this week when you to sleep before me."

David nodded still perplexed, however, he remembered that he was the one who would be going to sleep first most of the time.

"Hmm… alright, but you didn't reply to my question from earlier, how is this going to help us get stronger faster?"

That was the only thing that David truly wanted to know, the rest of it was only details that he would be able to confirm later today.

He would just go ask Anna when they had created this whole thing.

"The reason as to why it will make you stronger is simple. By restricting your access to mana, you will need to actually use your body without any exterior help which will, as a result, accelerate the growth of your muscles. However, keep in mind that you can refuse to take it."

Aiden said with a smile. "However, I recommend it, I even used a similar potion when I was young."

Aiden had just lied at the end, but it seemed to have worked as David was even more interested when he heard that.
