A cat toy? Is my Transformation Potion for you to use to turn into a cat-man and amuse your wife?

Those are for getting you out of trouble. The free potions he sells are very stable, and after transformation, you can temporarily possess the abilities of the transformed species.

For example, a cat's jumping, climbing trees, and speed.

Lance never dreamed that his Transformation Potion would be used as a tool to enhance marital harmony.

No wonder so many people came into the store yesterday and today to buy the "Unstable Transformation Potion".

Okay, okay.

Is this how you guys play the game? Raising the price this afternoon and moving these Transformation Potion to the "Daily" category isn't unreasonable, is it?

That's not right either.

Simon's wife played with him with a cat toy all night, so why was he so weak? Oh, they're married, maybe the novelty helped strengthen their relationship.

It can help an old married couple rediscover the feeling of youthful romance, which can be considered as using his concocted Transformation Potion for a good purpose.

A harmonious relationship between husband and wife is essential for a happy and fulfilling family life.

Couples who argue frequently will have their family fortunes affected.

The Transformation Potion can enhance the relationship between husband and wife, so the black dragon who concocted the potion should be able to gain some merit.

Whether or not one has accumulated merit is uncertain, but one's fortune should be better.

I made money, did good deeds, and felt happy.

"Drink some nourishing potion to replenish your depleted Vital Energy, and your problems will naturally disappear."

While Lance was chatting with Simon, the young dragon had already put on a nurse's uniform and a mask.

The dragon once said that when selling potions, you must give customers the impression that you are very professional.

To be honest, wearing the nurse's uniform that the dragon tailored for her did make her look very professional.

In fact, her real professional skill is governing a country.

I wonder if the dragon discovered this advantage of hers.

Are you sure?

Simon was a little skeptical of the owner of the Mystical Shop in front of him. He was just a shopkeeper selling various goods, not Potion Master. How could he possibly diagnose his symptoms? "Yes, I'm sure."

"You can even heal Extraordinary Person?"

"I can treat some simple and common symptoms, but for more complex ones, I need to do some research to see if I can treat them."

Simon thought about it and realized that the owner of the Mystical Shop was right. After all, he dared to sell potions. If he couldn't even diagnose some simple symptoms, what kind of owner would he be?

Listen to the owner of Mystical Shop and buy a few bottles of nourishing liquid.

"Boss, did you sell that Lightning Battle Sword that you had hanging on the wall yesterday?"

"Yes, it was bought by Xia Lulu, the sheriff of the Alchemy City. Today's prized possession is a Mythical Card."

Card name: Monkey Bro.

When in danger, you can summon the Mythical Card "Monkey Bro". When summoning the card, shout "Monkey Bro, Save Me!"

The Monkey Bro King will appear and help you subdue demons and monsters, turning danger into safety.

Simon and some other Extraordinary Person gathered around the counter and stared at the cards for a few moments. On one of the metallic purple-gold cards was a handsome monkey carrying a golden iron rod on its shoulder and riding on auspicious clouds.

The handsome monkey on the card has its back to everyone.

The monkey's golden armor, amethyst crown, and shoes are so cool! "Boss, do you have this cool armor that Monkey Bro is wearing in your store? If so, how much is it? I'd like to see if I can afford it."

"Phoenix-Winged Purple Gold Crown, Lotus Root Silk Cloud-Stepping Shoes, Chainmail Golden Armor. Authentic ones are unavailable, but imitations are available. Priced at 50,000 gold coins. Besides their aesthetic appeal, they also possess exceptional defensive capabilities. If any of you are interested, you can have them custom-made for you."

"Fifty thousand gold coins? That's more expensive than yesterday's Lightning Battle Sword! Boss, this isn't selling a product, it's robbery!"

"You're insulting me? If I were to rob someone, I could easily earn hundreds of thousands or even millions of gold coins in a single day."

"Boss, you're really good at bragging."

boast?

The dragon is no exaggeration.

If he were to commit robbery, he could loot all the gold and jewels in half of the Alchemy City.

The gold and silver treasures of half an Alchemy City... converted to gold coins, they must be worth at least a million, right? Ignorant humans, you should be glad the demon didn't turn into a dragon.

"Mythical Card, Boss, isn't the card maker who made this card a bit too arrogant? Cards that have given birth to Card Spirit don't dare to call themselves Mythical Card, but this card that's being sold in your temple dares to be classified as Mythical Card. If the other card makers in the Alchemy City knew about this, it would probably attract a lot of questions and even challenges from them."

Boss, it's better to avoid trouble. I suggest you change the classification of this card.

Simon thought the owner of the Mystical Shop was alright. The prices of the goods in the store were a bit high, but since the store's prized Lightning Battle Sword had been recognized by the sheriff yesterday, it meant that the quality of the store's goods was guaranteed.

I'm just giving this boss a friendly reminder; whether he listens or not is up to him.

Anyway, he wasn't lying; Alchemy City does indeed have quite a few proud and skilled card masters.

Some of the other Extraordinary Person in the store nodded in agreement with Simon's words.

Only one Extraordinary Person being stared intently at the Mythical Card [Monkey Bro].

As if he had just realized something, one of the Extraordinary Person shoved Fried Rice, who was staring at the Mythical Card, with his body.

"Clayton, aren't you a Source Energy Card Maker? Don't you always say that your card-making skills are no less than those old guys?"

Now your chance has come! If you can defeat the Mythical Card Monkey Bro in the Mystical Shop, your name will become famous Alchemy City.

"Get lost. I think you want me to be beaten to death by the Monkey Bro's iron rod on this Mythical Card. You're not card makers, so you don't know what kind of power this card contains. I don't blame you."

Because I don't know exactly how powerful this card is, but I know that bringing [Monkey Bro] home for 50,000 gold coins is definitely worth it! I just regret not having that much money. If I had 50,000 gold coins, I'd bring [Monkey Bro] home without hesitation!

Clayton's eyes gleamed with a green light; he desperately wanted to bring [Monkey Bro] home. This card, in terms of both skill and design, far surpassed any other card he had ever encountered before.

Outsiders might not be able to tell, but he can! The Monkey Bro, carrying an iron rod on his shoulder, exudes a carefree, unruly, and indescribable aura, all conveyed through just his back view.

This card possesses all the necessary conditions to create Card Spirit! He even suspected that the card maker could create Card Spirit from the [Monkey Bro] on the card at any time!

Why didn't the card maker do this?

Creating a card that can give birth to Card Spirit is the ultimate goal of every card maker! If a card that gives birth to Card Spirit can survive in the world, the card maker who created it will be recorded in history.

Even to step into the legendary Supreme Hall! "What a pity, what a pity!"

Clayton's eyes showed heartache; he was so close!

Just one step away, [Monkey Bro] will become a true Mythical Card.

"What's such a pity?"

"Card Spirit." Clayton sighed, heartbroken. "The card maker who created the [Monkey Bro] card should have made sure that [Monkey Bro] would have Card Spirit when completing this card."

But for some unknown reason, this powerful card maker failed to reach that point. Perhaps it was due to his own limitations, or perhaps he made a mistake in his final step. In any case, it's a great pity. This powerful card maker definitely had the ability to leave his mark in the Supreme Hall.

"Boss, next time you see the card maker for ' Monkey Bro,' could you ask him for me?"

Lance glanced at the young man Clayton with interest; he was a source energy card maker with a keen eye.

"I've asked you that question before."

"What did the card maker say?"

Clayton flashed in front of Lance, staring intently at Lance, as if afraid of missing a single word.

He said that whether or not a card should be given Card Spirit is not something he can decide, but rather something that "Monkey Bro" should decide.

He's only responsible for creating the cards, not for giving them a soul. He doesn't have that ability, nor does he want to make decisions for the characters on the character cards.

"This is too capricious and arbitrary! In the eyes of us card makers, the cards we create are like our children. Every card maker wants their 'children' to be so outstanding that they can sweep away the 'children' of other card makers."

The card maker for "Monkey Bro King" clearly had this opportunity, so why was he being so willful?!

Indeed, the most talented card makers are all eccentric individuals with strong personalities.

As for children? Forget it. When he made character cards, he treated the characters on the cards as people, not as objects.

The cards he creates include both combat and everyday types. If he fails to create a character card halfway through, he will not continue making it, nor will he think it is due to his lack of ability.

He would feel that the characters on the cards refused to even glance at the world.

He used to keep all the character cards he made on Black Dragon Island, only carrying some cards with strange abilities with him.

Over time, the character cards he created gradually disappeared.

"This card maker has a really good attitude."

Clayton hesitated for a while, then went back to stare at the card. It was so cool; he really wanted it.

This card is absolutely worth every penny! "Clayton, you're done for. Looks like we'll have to wait for other card makers to teach the boss's business partner a lesson."

"Don't even mention the other card makers. In the entire Alchemy City, apart from those three top card makers, all the other card makers in the Alchemy City have come. If they see this card, they'll have to kneel in front of the counter just like me. Maybe a wealthy card maker will even buy this card as if it were a treasure."

"You're overthinking it. My store's prized possession isn't something you can just buy with money. It depends on whether my prized possession is willing to go with the buyer. If it is, then give me the money."

"If you're not willing, even if you offer 100,000 or 200,000 gold coins, I won't sell."

To be a shop owner, you must have a personality and some quirky rules.

This will make your store stand out and can be considered a unique form of marketing.

As for making money, he's not in a hurry.

If Saint Blue can't hold on, borrow another 100,000 gold coins from Andre.

If that many gold coins are still not enough, then he can go to the Dragon Domain and borrow some money from those city lords. If one city lord lends him 50,000 gold coins, five city lords will lend him 250,000 gold coins. With those guys' current wealth, 50,000 gold coins is nothing to them.

"Dragon Cub, watch the shop. I'm going to stay in the backyard for a while."

"Oh."

Lance walked towards the backyard. The store belonged to Luna's family, and the backyard was where Luna's family used to live.

When someone contacts him, it's always something extremely urgent, and all the messages they send include a small flag.

It's Ticia.

Upon arriving in the backyard, Lance casually found a place to sit down, and the projector automatically flew out of the Diamond Cutter and hovered in the void.

Ticia's figure appeared on the projection screen.

"Your Excellency, a red dragon has appeared in our Holy Blue! And it seems to be a pure-blooded red dragon! On his first day in Holy Blue, he went to the Dragon God Temple, and then said he wanted to see you. I told him that you were out traveling and I was not sure when you would return."

The Red Dragon asked me to contact you, saying he wants to meet you, the human who built the Dragon God Temple, and that he will not leave Holy Blue until he sees you.

If that were all, it wouldn't be so bad, but this red dragon eats way too much. It can eat the equivalent of two days' worth of food for almost half of the citizens of Saint Blue City in a single day.

He hasn't done anything too outrageous, and we can't punish him, so, Viscount, could you please come back?

Red Dragon?

A pure-blooded red dragon has appeared in Saint Blue?

The image of the red dragon that had once appeared in Red Dragon City of the Dragon Domain flashed through Lance's mind.

Silvi said that a pure-blooded red dragon once flew to Red Dragon City and warned him not to call the First City Lord "Red Dragon King".

Could the red dragon that appeared in Saint Blue be the same red dragon that once roamed the Dragon Domain?

Without Dragon Island appearing, Pure-Blooded Dragon in the Four Regions shouldn't be so numerous as to be commonly seen.

If the Dragon God Temple weren't in Saint Blue, there wouldn't be any dragons appearing there.

"He didn't transform into a dragon-human form like the Lightning Dragon Eileen?"

"No, it has always been in dragon form."

"They ate and drank our food, but did they pay us?"

"No, he said he was a guest from afar, and it was our duty to entertain him. He also said he was a child of the Dragon God, and we at Saint Lan should try our best to meet all his requests."

???

So outrageous? No wonder human heroes like to chase red dragons and fight them, they really deserve a beating.

How about we contact Leige? Have Leige go to Saint Blue and steal that red dragon?

Or perhaps Ticia could deliberately lead the red dragon to do something detrimental to Saint Blue, and then let Leige openly and legitimately go to Saint Blue to subdue the red dragon.

With Leige's strength, defeating a pure-blooded red dragon would be no problem at all.

"Has that red dragon done anything else outrageous?"

"Yes, he ate all the big fish you kept in the lake."

"?!?!"

What a beast! He raised them all winter, and even though it's April and May is the time when the fish are spawning, he resisted the urge to fish, and this evil dragon ate all the big fish in his lake?!

He's going to shove that damned red dragon into the Squid Girl's mouth!
