Zongman: Don't move, Aisi, your family still owes me money

"For us elves, mating is just a way to reproduce offspring. Because of this, we don't casually have physical contact with others."

"But it seems to be different for you humans."

"The act of mating is actually an expression of affection or an act of pleasure."

"Of course, I'm not saying that this kind of thing is bad, but..."

Livilia paused and looked at Merlin with a cold face.

"Young man, you still have to learn to respect yourself."

After saying this, Livilia turned around and left the basement.

"Ah... Miss Livilia, this is... a mistake..."

Merlin curled his lips and had to swallow back the words he hadn't finished saying.

Rather, even if he really said it, Livilia probably wouldn't believe it.

After all, no one seeing such a scene would think that nothing happened last night.

Unless it is a child who is as innocent as a blank sheet of paper, he or she may believe that it is a misunderstanding.

"Well... never mind. I can't explain it anyway."

Merlin thought for a moment and immediately suppressed the depression in his heart.

Besides, he would definitely develop a relationship with Hestia and Lily to that level in the future anyway.

So even if I’m misunderstood, it doesn’t matter.

However, Livilia's arrival made Merlin certain of one thing.

"It looks like a big fish has taken the bait."

Merlin's mouth curled up slightly, and he quickly put on his clothes and went outside.

At the entrance to the dilapidated temple, Livilia was standing by, obviously waiting for him.

As for Aina who had run away earlier, she was nowhere to be seen. She probably went back to the guild.

Forget it, I’ll apologize later and stabilize the big customer first.

Merlin walked quickly forward and came in front of Livilia.

"Ms. Livilia, so, what do you want to talk about?"

"Almighty Potion."

Livilia uttered the word softly.

"Young man, haven't you foreseen this situation?"

Livilia said this, looking at Merlin with an unusual glint in her emerald eyes.

"How could that be?" Merlin smiled and shrugged, then raised his hand and pointed to the abandoned streets inside.

"Ms. Livilia, if you don't mind, how about we talk while we walk?"

After hearing this, Livilia blinked and looked at Merlin in surprise.

"Young man, you are really cautious. It would be better if you could be as cautious in your private life as well."

Instead of staying in one place, they chose to talk while walking, which was obviously to prevent being overheard by others.

Even if someone is following you, they can find out immediately.

"Cough cough..."

Merlin's face flushed slightly, and he quickly changed the subject.

Chapter 37 Livilia: Any Conditions Are Okay

"So, Ms. Livilia, you want to buy the all-purpose potion?"

Merlin asked.

"Yes, if possible, can you provide it in large quantities?"

Livilia nodded slightly and asked.

Of course, when she actually asked this question, she didn't have much hope.

After all, such a rare recovery item would probably not be produced in large quantities even if the young man in front of him was a genius.

It is naturally impossible to provide it in large quantities.

"I don't know, Miss Livilia, how many bottles do you want?"

Merlin didn't say yes or no, but instead threw the question to Livilia.

"Eh?"

"Um... ten... no, twenty bottles are available?"

After Livilia hesitated for a moment, she looked at Merlin with some anticipation in her eyes.

Since Merlin in front of him can say such words, it probably means that he has some confidence.

Because of this, Livilia doubled the quantity in one go.

If they could have twenty bottles of the almighty potion, then next time their Loki group might be able to expedition to the 55th floor.

There is no exaggeration in this.

Judging from Ais's performance after drinking the almighty potion, if all the cadres in the Loki Group could have two or three bottles of this potion, it would be able to play a role in turning the tide of battle at a critical moment.

"Twenty bottles? Well...it's not impossible."

Merlin replied with deliberately ambiguous words.

He knew very well that too much of a good thing would become cheap.

And now that Livilia would take the initiative to find him, it means one thing.

That is, Livilia cannot copy or imitate this all-purpose potion.

You know, even the strongest magician in Orario can't copy it.

Then don't worry, the second one will appear.

Since no one would secretly copy it, the price would naturally be entirely decided by him.

During these two days, Merlin also went to several potion shops and investigated the prices of some potions.

Because of this, he was a little undecided about the price of the bottle of almighty potion in his hand.

So, his strategy was to throw the problem to the other party.

"Isn't it impossible? Well... could it be that there are some difficulties with the materials?"

"If that's the case, there won't be any problem with us providing the materials."

Riveria suggested.

Her words also made Merlin realize that Livilia might have seen the ingredients of the almighty potion, so she could say such words as providing the materials.

At the same time, Livilia's words also contained the meaning of testing him.

If he mentioned ingredients that were not included in the all-purpose potion, then it would be obvious that he was deliberately deceiving people and asking for too much.

Doing so might not only make Livilia unhappy, but might even end the deal.

The opponent is one of the few first-level adventurers in Orario, the strongest magician, Jiu Mo Ji.

So here, you can't be careless for a moment.

"Hahaha, Miss Livilia, you're joking. Those materials aren't worth much, so there's no question of them being in short supply."

Merlin smiled and rubbed his head, his brain working rapidly.

How to maximize benefits while telling the truth is what he needs to do most at the moment.

After hearing Merlin's words, a hint of surprise flashed in Livilia's eyes.

This young man hadn't deliberately lied. He could have easily spent a fortune on the material, but he had proactively disclosed its value.

Could it be that she had misunderstood, and the boy in front of her was not the profit-driven type?

Just as Livilia was thinking about whether she should redefine her evaluation of Merlin.

Merlin spread his hands and said seriously.

"The trouble is, I'm an adventurer, Miss Livilia."

After Merlin finished speaking, Livilia was stunned.

They weren't talking about potions, so why were they suddenly talking about professions?

Just when Livilia was a little confused, Merlin explained.

"An adventurer's job is to enter a maze and explore, not to refine items like this."

"Actually, I only offered these almighty potions to raise funds for exploration. I don't plan to do this business long-term."

Merlin said this sincerely, without a trace of falsehood in his words.

That's right, he didn't lie at all, so even if Livilia in front of him had the ability to see through lies like a god, it would be useless.

After all, everything he said was true.

Whether you are selling the Almighty Potion for money or not planning to continue to rely on selling the Almighty Potion for money, this is a fact.

Because of this, even the elves, who were very sensitive to emotional fluctuations, could not tell that Merlin was lying.

Because he didn't lie at all, he just told the truth.

"Uh...is that so," Livilia pursed her lips, a trace of gloom creeping over her beautiful face.

Because she understood that everything Merlin said was true.

An adventurer's main job is indeed adventure and exploration, and making items for this kind of recovery potion can't even be considered a side job.

Then all of a sudden, the situation became a little troublesome.

And from Merlin's previous words, it is not difficult to infer one thing.

That is, maybe this time, the all-purpose potion she can buy may be the last batch.

And this is not what Livilia wants to see.

After all, the Loki clan’s expeditions were not just once or twice.

This year's expedition plan includes the exploration of the 58th and 59th floors.

If possible, it would be best to explore up to the 59th floor this year.

Now, the farthest they have reached is the entrance to the 54th floor, and they have not even fully explored the 54th floor.

You have to know that this is only the 54th floor. If you go to deeper floors, the monsters there will be more powerful and more dangerous.

In fact, there were many deadly dangers in this expedition, and there was also a certain amount of luck involved in being able to retreat to the ground without losing any manpower.

If they had the Almighty Potion, a rare item that can increase their overall ability value by nearly 20%-30%, it would not be so dangerous.

Thinking of this, Livilia pursed her lips gently, and a serious look appeared on her beautiful face.

On one side is the entire clan's expedition, and on the other side is personal gains and losses.

The decision to make is obvious.

Livilia exhaled lightly, raised her head and looked at Merlin, and said solemnly.

"Young man, if possible, could you continue to provide this all-purpose potion to our Loki clan?"

"Of course, I know this kind of work is definitely not what you want, so I will give you corresponding compensation."

"As long as it's within my capabilities, any conditions are acceptable."

After hearing this, Merlin's mouth curled up into an extremely bright smile.

Ah, that's right, this is exactly what he wanted.

"Is that so? If that's the case, then Miss Livilia, my request shouldn't be difficult for you."

"Gulu."
