Roy Clive and Dennisa Rivers recovered from their amazement, bowed deeply before Damien, and said in a respectful tone, "Thank you, Senior Azrael."
Damien nodded and said in a serious tone, "You should take these two pills now before they lose their effects slowly. But remember that you should abstain from any venereal activities during this month once you take these pills. Otherwise, you two might face grave consequences. Of course, I know exceptional and decent youngsters like you two don't indulge in such activities, but I am giving a warning anyway,"
Roy and Dennisa's expression became rigid when they heard that they couldn't indulge that they would have to control their promiscuity for a whole month. It was as if they were told to hold in their pee for a whole month.
They couldn't imagine continuing their daily lives without these activities for a whole month and wondered what it had to do with the pill.
"Why the long faces? Don't you want the pill?" Damien asked in a veiled tone.
However, when they thought about the miraculous effects the pills can bring about, they didn't think much and gulped it down before Damien asked them to give it back.
Damien mockingly smiled as he saw the two greedily gulp down the pills.
'What a bunch of idiots…'
Just as Dennisa took her pill, she experienced sudden changes in her skin. Her skin's texture became silky and seemed to have a glowing effect, increasing her charms. Even her hair became even thicker and smoother.
Dennisa's brows raised, feeling such astonishing changes on her body, and an exuberant smile emerged.
Meanwhile, Roy's body was also undergoing some changes. His muscles became even more prominent, and he could even feel his little brother becoming vigorous as if he ate an aphrodisiac. He felt like he couldn't wait to ram his rod inside someone and test how his sex drive improved.
But he felt frustrated again, thinking that he has to refrain from any sexual activities for a whole month.
His body was feeling more energetic than ever, and it was like he could expend more ethereal energy than usual.
The others were also astounded seeing the amazing changes on Roy and Dennisa's bodies. Now that they witnessed the benefits, they desperately wanted one. But they thought how to request one from Damien when he himself said that these pills were exclusive and a gift meant for Roy and Dennisa only.
Harvey Rivers couldn't hold his desires in any longer and asked Damien in a flattering tone, "Alchemist Azrael, is there by chance more of these pills? I am sure we could compensate you handsomely, or you can quote any price, and we won't hesitate to pay."
Everyone's ears perked, especially the two women as they waited in anticipation for Damien's response.
Damien sighed and said in a pitiful tone, "Unfortunately, these two pills are the only ones I had made so far. It was only recently I even finished formulating its medical formula, and so I didn't have time to concoct more. And the condition of the herbs is so stringent that it's very hard to find those kinds of herbs in the condition I want. I think it will be a while before I could concoct these pills again."
All of them got disappointed hearing his reply and thought that it was to be expected as such miraculous pills couldn't possibly be made in mass.
Damien had actually been working on a beauty pill when Valentina hadn't transformed yet. He was hoping to come up with a beauty pill that could remove Valentina's scars.
But after she transformed, he never had the need to work on it. This time, he merely modified some parts of his unfinished work and came up with the pink pill, which he gave to Dennisa.
Valentina was confused by everything that was happening. She was wondering why Damien was helping these two out by giving them such special and amazing pills.
But then she remembered how Damien said that he would first let them feel as if everything was going their way and feel on top of the world. Only after that would he make them fall hard.
She remembered his exact words, 'The higher they fly, the harder they fall.'
Valentina couldn't wait to see what Damien was going to do.
Roy and Dennisa once again bowed deeply, this time by putting more heart into it as they felt like they couldn't thank Damien enough for gifting them with these pills, which nobody else even had the chance to get their hands on.
They couldn't imagine the amount of Spirit Stones these pills would sell for despite being a Rank 4 Pill.
Now they realized it was only a matter of time before the name Azrael truly began to cause waves in the whole world. Even the Xeton Emperor might get more interested if he knew the kind of miraculous pills Damien could make.
And they couldn't imagine the potential connections Damien would be making as even the supreme existences would try to befriend him as they know with Damien's talent, it would only be a matter of time before he could concoct Rank 7 Pills.
They felt that if they don't make solid ties with Damien now, then it might be too late in the future. Now Harvey Rivers completely decided to make sure that his daughter does not do anything vicious to Valentina.
He didn't want to attract Alchemist Azrael's hostility and lose out on all the potential benefits he could get. Building strong ties with Alchemist Azrael seemed more important than his daughter's popularity.
Herwin Clive's thoughts were no different, and he cleared his throat as he said formally, "I believe we should also present Alchemist Azrael with a gift. Otherwise, it would look like we are too ungrateful not to reciprocate his kind intentions. Don't you think so, Harvey?"
Harvey nodded with zeal, "Very true. We heard that your disciple has a special ethereal seed known as the Blood seed. Fortunately, when Herwin and I went for a recent tour, we came upon a fearsome man-eating ethereal beast known as the Bloodthirsty Ape. It is a Peak Level Sky Ethereal Realm beast known to not even leave a single drop of blood in their victims after they are done eating them. Of course, we took it down easily and also harvested its ethereal core."
Harvey flicked his fingers as a light red ethereal core floated in his palm.
He looked at Damien and said with a smile, "Do accept this gift from us. It has a rich blood essence, and I am sure you could make some pills using it, which could be beneficial for your disciple. The Bloodthirsty Apes are very less in numbers, and it is rumored that not more than ten exist in the whole empire. We were just lucky to come upon one. So it's only fair that you have to accept this rare gift from us."
Valentina's eyes sparkled when she saw the red ethereal core, and she couldn't wait to taste it. Even though she felt that it would nowhere be pleasant as Damien's blood, she was at least satisfied with the fact that she could increase her cultivation.
Even without Damien telling her, she could feel it in her blood that her cultivation would increase just enough to pummel Dennisa Rivers.
Damien inwardly scoffed and could see how these two are stressing the fact that the ethereal core on Harvey's hand was rare enough to equal the two pills he had given away.
However, he had to admit that the red-colored ethereal core would surely help him concoct a pill that could advance Valentina's cultivation at least by a few levels. He couldn't thank these two clowns in front of him for giving away such a valuable thing for free.
He had no way of getting his hands on one anyway, as even with Misty, he doubted if he could defeat a Bloodthirsty Ape without the risk of losing Misty.
Damien nodded and said in a cool tone, "If you both insist, then I shall not shy away."
Damien gladly accepted the ethereal core from them, and Herwin and Harvey were pleased to see that Damien accepted it.
Now they were sure that they were at least starting to build a friendly relationship with Damien.
Damien got up and said, "Now that we have sorted out everything, I will take my leave now."
