Chapter 172 True Antidote Elixir
Chapter 172 True Antidote Elixir
-----
When I entered the room, I found Acorn in the floor crying. Without thinking it twice, I quickly helped him lift up and cleansed his tears. Titan and Achlys quickly ran to my side and also helped Acorn lift up.
"What's wrong buddy?" Wondered Titan, petting his head. "You look all tired, how long have you been working?"
"Ugh…. I just can't stop until I find something, I can't give up, Titan!" Cried Acorn.
"What happened here?" Wondered Rita.
An old Fairy lady approached us; she was the guild master of the alchemist guild.
"We ran out of materials so we can't continue until we gather more. But Acorn doesn't want to give up and keeps on wanting to continue, he was about to go out to gather herbs on his own with his current state! He'll get himself killed like this!" Sighed the old lady.
"Thank you for worrying about him. He's not like this at all…" I sighed. "Acorn, we can go look for herbs for you, but how about you try this first?" I wondered, taking out the item I had just acquired.
"W-What is this?" He asked, holding into the item as if it was precious. As he was an Alchemist, he was able to appraise items, so he quickly realized what it was as he read its information in a game-like window that appeared in front of his sight.

[Fairy's Regretful Tears (B Grade)]
A special Item, it is made by gathering a hundred tears from a beautiful and young fairy who was heartfully regretful of something they had done and wanted forgiveness above all. This item can only be made by the tears of an innocent soul that has been mistreated by the darkness of the world. An incredible rare item, it can be used as a material for potions, its special effect might grant the power to easily dispel curses or diseases.

"T-This is… Fairy's Regretful Tears?" Wondered Acorn. "This item can… It can help!"
Acorn desperately ran back to the boiling Magic Cauldron which possessed a sparkly liquid inside, as he quickly decided to use the item.
"L-Lady Planta, can I use it?"
"Yes, sure!"
"A-Alright…"
He quickly opened the bottle and ended pouring everything in the cauldron, but nothing seemed to have happened.
"Nothing…?" I wondered.
"Something like that won't just work out of nowhere…" Said the guild master.
"Synthesis!"
However, Acorn had yet to use the powerful ability of Alchemists of high level, [Synthesis] a Skill that allows the combination of Materials by spending Mana and infusing it into the Magic Cauldron, enchanting the power and effects of materials merged together through the Alchemy Skill.
FLAAAASH!
Suddenly, an enormously bright flash of white light emerged from the cauldron, illuminating the entire room and blinding everybody momentarily.
"W-What was that?!"
"My eyes!"
"The cauldron exploded?! Acorn!"
"No, I'm fine… but this light… this is an Elixir, a True Elixir!"
As the light reseeded, the cauldron stopped shining. Within it, there was the beautiful liquid shining bright pink, almost gold, in fact. The sight of this liquid was so shocking that everyone of us stopped as we looked at that in silence. And its description was…

[True Antidote Elixir]
Item Type: Healing Potion, Restorative Potion, Curing Potion, True Elixir, Consumable.
Item Quality: A+++ Rank Quality
Item Level Requirement: No requirement.
Item Cooldown: 24 Hours.
Item Description:
A True Antidote Elixir created by the combination of several high-quality materials together. The last material to be used was the ultimate catalyst, the tears of a fairy. It contains the power to heal many wounds, diseases, or incredibly strong curses. Additionally, it can fully restore Satiation once consumed, alongside restoring 50% of HP and MP.

Apparently, this item was really it! Maybe we can really heal what had happened to everybody with this one! It was so hard to make and uses so many unique materials though, it probably is an amazing healing item without many that could be equal to it! However, it had a 24-hour cooldown after consumption, so it didn't allowed people to drink more within 24 hours. I guess that's a way to make it fair so people can't abuse this in Boss Battles, maybe?
"With this… surely…!" Acorn quickly filled a small bottle with the liquid and ran towards a patient nearby, asking him to drink it.
"Please, drink this!"
"Ugh… Guh…"
The young man slowly began drinking until he emptied the entire small bottle. Nothing seemed to happen for a few seconds. However, right after roughly 20 seconds, his entire body began to glow brightly, the many weird, black-colored tattoos that had begun spreading over his body started to dissipate, disappearing completely. His entire body was purified, and his stamina was brought back alongside his health and mana.
"Aahhh…! Ah! I am okay?!" He asked in shock, jumping out of bed, the man began doing exercises right there without problems, and after a quick check on its status, it said that there was no Curse inflicted on him anymore.
"It worked… IT WORKED! This item… did it! Thank you, Lady Planta!" Acorn cried, seconds before suddenly falling asleep over the floor.
"I-I guess he really worked hard for it… I feel like I stole the show with this item now." I sighed.
"H-How did you even got this item?" Wondered Nieve.
"I acquired it after our talk with Florie, the System gifted it to me… Apparently, it was a reward because I choose to protect and heal her instead of killing her, as the quest had recommended when it appeared as Florie transformed." I said.
"I see… This "System" is so strange and mysterious…" Nieve said. "But with this, we can surely heal the Queen and the other fairies! We have to begin sharing this right away!"
And like that, we spent the next few hours sharing the Elixir with everybody that was affected by the Disease Curse, including the Queen of Fairies.
When everything ended, even the Fairy Queen was able to move, and she was radiant, filled with life.
