Potion Maker Chapter 11: A secret

"Ah"

Standing in his mental space, Will was dripping with sweat.

After leaving to check on his surroundings for a moment he found out he was still in the forest, so he went back to continue his training in his mental space.

Watching the stars twinkle in the distance, he started to think about his life in his original world.

Back in his original world, Will was an average worker, he had an average pay and a life you would expect a single man in his early twenties to have.

He either ate premade meals from the store down the street or had instant noodles.

When he wasn't working he'd stay home and play games and watch live action wuxias, he would also have constant "alone time" with his computer screen as his companion.

His grip was unmatched when he arm wrestled…

Looking up at the vast reaches of his mental space he started to think about his potion ability.

What he really needs right now is strength, but the stronger the potion the more energy needed.

If he doesn't have a main ingredient and he wants to do a four times strength enhancement, he'll definitely without a doubt fall unconscious.

According to the novels he read, snakes tend to posses the bloodline of dragons, and dragons are powerful.

The only question is if the dragon bloodline exists in this world?

If it does he'll need to capture a snake that has purified it's bloodline and acquire its blood, or even a few scales should work as a main ingredient for a strength enhancement potion..

Even with a main ingredient, at his skill level he will still pass out from mental fatigue.

At least he wont have to deal with the side effects of sleeping for hours and having a splitting headache..

"I need to get stronger in this world, why did I have to appear here?"

Will couldn't help but detest his fate, he gets sent to another world just to become everyone's enemy?

When he fights back he is evil?

Am I supposed to just let you kill me?

Are you all stupid or something?

'Maybe, maybe I could use the blood of humans as a main ingredient, I'll have plenty of enemies after all'

Will thought, because humans are able to posses amazing abilities, and they tend to be skilled at multiple things, although the quality of the blood would be terrible because humans aren't divine beings, he could still use their blood as a main ingredient if he has a high quantity.

The thing is, would he become a demon by doing this?

Does it really matter?

The whole world will consider me a demon even if I do good deeds.

Will's mind was going through many things at a rapid speed, he was still trying to figure out how this world works.

One thing was clear to him though, if the heavens reject you, the world will reject you.

The thought process of the people of this world are as such.

If you are not a demon, what other reason would the heavens have for rejecting you?

So you must be a demon.

Enjoying the peace and quiet of his mental space, Will rubbed his face.

"I've been in here for five hours? I should go check my surroundings again"

With a ripple, Will left his mental space.

In the depths of his mental space, there was a glowing sphere of light floating above.

In this sphere of light was a young girl curled up asleep, she was in a snow white dress that fluttered gently in the energy currents.

A divine aura leaked from her body as her skin, like a flawless gem sparkled in the light of the stars of Will's mental space.

In the mental space the system spoke to the girl.

-Princess, like your father wished I have found you someone that can protect you in the future, someone that can free you from this curse.

At the mention of her father the young girl's eyelashes shook as a sparkling tear slid down her flawless cheek.

-Your father, the god of the universe died to ensure your survival. You only need to be protected until your power awakens, but until then. Princess, daughter of the god of the universe, I will have this boy protect you.

-Can he break this curse that was put on you, can he awake you from your slumber?

-Should I tell him that he is protecting the daughter of the one who created the universe?

The system was actually a servant that worked for the god of the universe, he became Will's system by merging with his computer and the modded version of Potion Maker.

This explains how the system can sell stuff to the gods, doesn't it?

Too bad Will might not find out even after the seas dry up and the rocks turn soft, but if he manages to find the princess floating in his mental space, he will naturally find out all of this.
