My Love Debts Are Everywhere!

Chapter 106: Loser Kruger

Nighttime

Inside his room, Leon sipped coffee, calmly observing the beautiful starry night sky through his open window.

However, beneath this serene exterior, his mind was consumed by the events of the morning.

"The hall of glory, the kneeling statues of the Demon Emperors, the big altar, a mysterious black sword resembling the Holy Sword of Zenith, and the enigmatic white-haired middle-aged man with a blindfold... Was it all just a dream?" Leon wondered as he gazed up at the starry night sky.

Honestly, Leon couldn't shake the feeling that it wasn't a dream at all; everything felt too vivid, too real.

Moreover, in a world brimming with fantastical elements like magic, experiencing something akin to this morning seemed entirely plausible, didn't it?

Taking another sip of his coffee, Leon sought to clear his muddled and confused mind.

After calming his mind with each sip of coffee, he was finally able to sort out the events that had happened to him one by one.

"The Hall of Glory, with the statues of the Demon Emperors bowing their heads..." Leon blinked a few times, reflecting on the memory.

This afternoon, when he visited the Hall of Glory to investigate, he found it devoid of the statues of the Demon Emperors, unlike the one he had encountered while following the blue butterfly, leaving him deeply perplexed at the time.

"Could it be that I'm actually traversing into a different dimension?" The thought struck Leon, momentarily stunning him before a small chuckle escaped his lips.

With a final sip of his coffee, Leon sighed, placing the cup on the wooden table by the window, then turned his gaze back to the tranquil stars in the night sky.

"No matter how much I speculate, it all comes down to mere assumptions," Leon said calmly, though a hint of helplessness tinged his voice.

In the end, he decided to set aside these unnecessary thoughts and refocus on his ultimate goal: regaining his hero power.

Without his hero's power, he would have remained in the dilemma, ignorant of whether it was just a dream or not.

Furthermore, he happened to recall his conversation with the white-haired, blindfolded middle-aged man at the altar, who had mentioned that curing the devouring poison within him could establish a connection with the black sword embedded in the altar.

Despite Leon's lingering doubts about whether it was all a dream, he reasoned it was worth a try, right?

Moreover, Leon felt an urgent need to regain his strength as soon as possible, whether to seek revenge on Velix and his subordinates or to protect his three little daughters and Liliana.

With this determination firmly set, Leon felt a surge of revitalized spirit.

"Incidentally, tonight is the night I'll concoct the antidote, as the alchemy furnace I've been awaiting has finally arrived," Leon said, a smile gracing his lips.

Swiftly, Leon closed the window of his room and made his way to his reading desk with deliberate steps.

Under the desk, he reached down and retrieved a red alchemy furnace, carefully placing it on the reading desk.

"What a magnificent alchemy furnace..." Leon smiled inwardly, admiring the craftsmanship as he carefully observed it.

He had actually requested this alchemy furnace from Liliana the previous night, but due to the challenge of finding a suitable one, it arrived only this afternoon.

Then, with his three daughters having played in his room until the afternoon, he had deliberately hidden it in advance for use tonight.

"Tsk tsk! With an incredible alchemy furnace like this, even though my alchemy skills are average, I'm quite confident I can concoct a devouring poison antidote," Leon said smugly, clicking his tongue slightly.

Initially, he wasn't entirely convinced of his ability to succeed 100% in creating the devouring poison antidote.

Recalling what was required, concocting the antidote for the devouring poison demanded a high level of alchemy skill, while his abilities could only be classified as average, leaving him feeling insecure about the task.

However, that was then; the situation is different now.

In the past few days, during his spare time, he has devoted himself to reading several alchemy books and enhancing his skills in this field.

Moreover, armed with advanced knowledge of poisons from extensive reading and possessing an exceptional alchemy furnace like this, how could he possibly fail?

If he were to fail, his name would not be Leon Kruger but rather Loser Kruger!

Chuckling slightly, Leon quickly snapped out of his reverie and proceeded to gather the necessary ingredients.

He retrieved the big black box containing the main components for making the antidote from under his desk and placed it on the tabletop.

Afterwards, he carefully opened it and examined the smaller boxes inside.

"With so many basic ingredients available, I could probably prepare numerous antidotes, couldn't I?" Leon said with a slight smile, jesting with himself.

With precision, he removed the smaller boxes and arranged them on the table.

He made sure not to forget the two bottles of Liliana's blood essence, the most crucial ingredient for making the antidote for the devouring poison.

After neatly organizing everything, Leon cleared his desk to create space for his alchemy work.

After a few minutes, Leon completed all his preparations and surveyed the alchemy furnace and the arranged ingredients on the table.

"Everything is ready, and now it's time to begin," he declared, his palms clenched and passion burning in his heart.

With all the recipes clearly outlined in the forbidden book by Jared Crimson and having committed them to memory, Leon had nothing to worry about.

Without further delay, Leon swiftly began separating the ingredients and measuring the required amounts.

For a single devouring poison antidote potion, two fire seeds, one tricolor flower, and one frozen leaf were necessary.

Meanwhile, one drop of Liliana's blood essence was required for each antidote potion.

Considering the abundance of ingredients at hand, Leon was confident that he could likely produce over a hundred antidotes for the devouring poison.

Subsequently, Leon prepared his alchemical furnace and added the ingredients one by one.

First, he placed the two fire seeds, followed by the tricolor flower, and finally the frozen leaves.

With all the ingredients added, Leon meticulously regulated the temperature to ensure that the distinct properties of each ingredient did not cause them to interact destructively.

Leon continued his work for an hour, and before he knew it, he had reached the final step.

"Just the last step..." Leon muttered excitedly as he stared at the puff of liquid inside the alchemy furnace, carefully taking a drop of Liliana's blood essence that he had prepared.

With the realization that this was the concluding step, Leon felt both nervous and excited.

This was the pivotal moment that would determine his success or failure.

With a deep breath, Leon calmed himself, his golden eyes reflecting an uncommon determination.

"With this, I, sword hero Leon Kruger, the most handsome hero in the world, shall return! The world... brace yourself!" With a lopsided smile on his lips ?, Leon poured a single drop of Liliana's blood essence, and then...

*Boom!*

First attempt: Fail!
