I thought this fair-skinned, tall young man was Old Man Lance's grandson, but I never expected him to be Old Man Lance living a second life.

Before the old man left the Bronze Guild, he often told them that no matter how old he was, with his talent for concocting potions, he might live a second life someday.

As it turned out, the old man really did live a second life, and the current Old Man Lance is much younger than they were.

Running away was out of the question, because Old Man Lance could really turn a person into a paper doll, and he could even make sure that you would live after you became a paper doll.

They had seen the old man smash several Extraordinary Person tried to rob him into paper cutouts and stick them to a tree.

I don't want to be turned into a paper doll, and I certainly don't want to become a "Real-Person Portrait" in Old Man Lance's house.

"Old Man Lance, we were wrong. We really didn't know you sent it."

"Cough cough cough cough. Old Man Lance, we really didn't know that you gave us this medicine, and we never expected that you could live a second life. It's only a matter of time before you become a [God-level] Extraordinary Alchemist."

Louis tugged at Dalton's sleeve, interrupting Dalton.

The young lady of the City Lord's Mansion, Joanna, is here. If she finds out that the Sword Intent Scroll was given to them by Old Man Lance Old Man Lance, she might resent him.

There's no need for that; let this young lady continue to resent them.

"Oh, right, right, that's right. Grandpa, you're so young, it feels a bit awkward to call you Grandpa. How about we call you Brother Lance from now on?"

"The medicine has few side effects. Drink it, complete the discharge procedures, and go home."

"How big is 'not big'?"

When Old Man Lance said the side effects were minor, he meant that you wouldn't die from drinking it.

As long as it doesn't kill you, the side effects are minimal.

"If any side effects occur, they will disappear within ten days."

"Really?"

"Um."

Louis, Dalton, Bazel reluctantly picked up the medicine that had been sitting on top of the cabinet for three days.

Old Man Lance was definitely not lying when he said the medicine could heal their injuries.

The side effects are minimal. Just take it with a grain of salt, don't take it seriously.

If it weren't for Old Man Lance's sudden appearance at the hospital, the medicine, which had been sitting in the hospital for three days, might have had to sit for even longer.

I will definitely drink, but when I will drink is hard to say.

Sigh. There's no escaping it now, so let's drink.

I uncorked the bottle and smelled the liquid. It smelled nice, with a faint medicinal fragrance. The color of the liquid was normal, a light golden color.

"Shall we have a try?"

"Let's have a toast, and after we finish, the three of us will hit the road together."

"???"

If you can't speak properly, can you please not speak at all? What the hell is this about the three of us traveling together? Anyone who doesn't know the situation would think the three of us committed suicide by poisoning ourselves.

The three of them drank the pale golden liquid in their hands one after another. The moment the liquid entered their mouths, the surging extraordinary medicinal power began to repair the injuries on Louis, Dalton, and Bazel's bodies.

External wounds scab over and fall off, and internal injuries also heal rapidly. At the same time, adverse reactions to the medication also appear.

Louis, Dalton, and Bazel's ears turned into pig ears.

Upon seeing each other's ears, the three hurriedly touched their own noses and mouths, relieved to find they were alright.

The nose didn't turn into a pig's nose.

Its mouth didn't turn into a pig's snout.

If my ears turn into pig ears, I can barely accept it; I can just wear a hat when I go out for the next few days.

It's not a big problem.

How are you feeling?

"Good. The adverse reactions are indeed as Old Man Lance said... not very serious. Mr. Lance, you didn't come here just to see the side effects of the medicine with your own eyes, did you?"

"You're overthinking it. I just want to give you guys a good beating. Alright, stay here tonight and rest. Go home tomorrow after you're discharged."

"Grandpa, what about you? Everyone misses you. Aren't you going back to visit them?"

"I don't have time right now, I'll talk about it later."

"Alright then. Um, sir, there's one more thing I need to trouble you with."

"Explain?"

"Could you lend us some money? We don't have enough for the trip."

At 7 p. m., two rather conspicuous stalls appeared on the brightly lit Commercial Street.

A Amethyst Young Dragon, barely taller than a person, was wearing a floral dress and a colorful Alpaca Hat, skillfully making takoyaki (octopus balls).

The young lady of the City Lord's Mansion was collecting money and packing boxes for customers.

Not far from the stall, two people dressed in uniform waiter outfits were acting cute and calling out to customers.

Delicious and nutritious takoyaki, three skewers for every Nuo Silver, ten skewers for every three Nuo Silver, meticulously crafted by the adorable young dragon Your Highness has been in charge of cooking for 350 years.

Clean, hygienic, and healthy; it can beautify girls and help boys grow taller. Don't miss it!

Parents with young children who buy ten skewers of takoyaki will receive a small cup of sweet and sour medicinal beverage that can help regulate a child's spleen and stomach.

A boy who brings his girlfriend buys twenty skewers of takoyaki and gives her a small cup of kidney-strengthening medicine as a gift.

Married couples who have been married for over 30 years can buy ten skewers of takoyaki and receive two small cups of health-preserving liquid as a gift. Drinking it will guarantee that you won't experience back pain for three months.

Many young people were drawn to this unusual combination and gathered around the stall to watch the adorable young dragon Your Highness make takoyaki.

The takoyaki made by Your Highness is indeed delicious; you can smell the aroma from far away.

However, what truly attracts young people is the small cup of health-boosting liquid that's given away for free.

Twenty skewers of takoyaki would only cost six Nuo Silver, which is perfectly affordable.

Some shy boys were embarrassed, until a pale-faced young man bought forty skewers of takoyaki in one go and drank the two complimentary Kidney-Strengthening Body-Fortifying Potion on the spot.

Some of the young men stopped hesitating and took out their money to buy takoyaki and drink the kidney- Kidney-Strengthening Body-Fortifying Potion.

After taking the medicine, I felt much better instantly.

"Hey guys, come over here! If you think the Kidney-Strengthening Body-Fortifying Potion is pretty good, please come over here. The Kidney-Strengthening Body-Fortifying Potion sold here is far more effective than the small cup you drank before."

There are only a hundred bottles of the Kidney-Strengthening Body-Fortifying Potion, each costing one gold coin. Those who have purchased takoyaki (octopus balls) have priority in purchasing.

The vendor selling the medicine was Louis, while the people standing on the street hawking their wares were Dalton and Bazel.

Lacking travel expenses, they came to work for Old Man Lance.

As for Old Man Lance, he sat on the second floor of the coffee shop across the street, sipping red wine, listening to music, and eating desserts, enjoying the attentive service of the adorable Catgirl Maid.

The old man is still the same old man; he never shortchanges himself when it comes to enjoying life.

I feel bad about spending money.

But if the money is spent on himself, he doesn't feel the pinch at all.

The adorable young dragon Your Highness was inwardly cursing the evil dragon. She was still a minor, a child! The dragon was treating her like this; he was employing child labor! He had promised to bring her to the human world to play.

He did bring her.

But she wasn't the one being played.

It is an evil dragon.

She, Your Highness Imperial Daughter of the Farolyn Empire, is responsible for making money for the evil dragon. How infuriating! (◣ω◢)

P. S.: It's too difficult. Don't those masters who write 20,000 words a day need to think about the plot? When I think about the plot, write, delete and revise, it takes me at least three hours to write one chapter.

Go to sleep, everyone. I'll try to write another chapter. Don't wait, check back tomorrow after you wake up. The update might be a bit late.
