chapter 1261  spreading the word

    "...and i think that''s the last of the verdant bluegrass and verdant treeslugs we have."

    finishing up what looked to be the final batch of elixirs he''d concoct for the meantime, valyr nodded in satisfaction as he noticed the liquid within the vials take on a cool lavender color.

    chucking the two elixirs into his spatial bracelet after that, he then moved a bit closer to where thomas was, wanting to see how the man''s final batch of beauty elixirs would turn out.

    considering that the two of them had spent an entire half day scouring the outer region of the verdant woodlands for the materials they needed, it was no surprise that the two spent a lot of time using them up to concoct the elixirs.

    then again, even with the two of them gradually getting the hang of making the elixirs over time, due to the sheer amount of verdant bluegrass and verdant treeslugs they collected, it still took them an entire day to finally run out of it.

    "...done." shaking up the vials he held for a bit more, thomas looked at them with a bit of expectation, hoping that the liquid inside the vials would take on a similar color to the vials valyr made.

    yet, even though he had improved the most between the two in terms of concocting the beauty elixir, the best result that greeted the man were two vials that had its murkiness replaced with a slight shimmer.

    seeing that the final batch of vials he made only had a slightly stronger shimmer to them, thomas let out a long sigh before giving them to valyr for safekeeping.

    "i''ve already concocted these elixirs over hundreds of times already," he complained in a slight murmur. "yet, the elixirs i end up making are still nowhere near the ones you make."

    "i''ve already spent an entire day straight concocting these elixirs, but why does it seem like it''s impossible for me to make the elixirs the way you do it?"

    "all the more reason to head back to the village, then," replied valyr with a chuckle, to which thomas nodded in agreement.

    "though, before we do that..."

    "how about we take a picture first?"

    ...

    "so... why did you take those pictures before we left the verdant woodlands?"

    after trekking through the outskirts for a couple hours, the two eventually found themselves back at the village, only to then immediately head to one of the nearby inns to clean themselves up.

    using some of the drops they got from the monsters they killed a couple of days earlier, the two were able to grab themselves a fresh meal and a room for them to stay for the night, giving them enough peace of mind to do what they needed to do next.

    "for the forums," replied valyr as the two of them headed to the center of the village. "just before we left the forest, i made a post on the forums advertising our product."

    "oh?" raising his eyebrow in curiosity, thomas asked back, "how did the others respond, then?"

    "well..." just as valyr was about to respond to the question, he soon began to hear a cacophony of voices echo from the direction they were heading.

    becoming silent for a bit as he understood what was going on, he soon glanced at thomas with a smile before pointing at the place where they planned to sell their elixirs.

    "from the looks of it, the effects of the advertisement turned out to be far better than i thought."
