Chapter 544 Time to Gamble
Chapter 542 of "Primordial Villain With A Slave Harem" begins with suspense: Aurora flinched with fright before glancing at me, and a hint of anger crossed her... Don’t stop reading!
Aurora flinched with fright before glancing at me, and a hint of anger crossed her eyes. "You keep scaring me like this...! One day I'll accidentally drop something expensive."By the time she finished her statement, her arms were already wrapped around my waist, and she was busy nuzzling her head into my chest. My hands quickly found themselves cupping two heavenly mounds while pulling my beloved woman into a firm embrace.
"No dice, I presume."
Aurora sighed exasperatedly while shaking her head before looking up into my gaze, letting me notice the heavy bags under her big, beautiful eyes. She must've pulled an all-nighter.
"I've done everything I can, but these elixirs defy all logic and magical principles I know. They're... I want to say they're the four elements in their rawest possible forms, but I can't do that and remain academic, as that's just a hunch I can't prove in any shape or form. But what I can say with certainty is that they're not normal elements. They're alive in a way I can't explain. Whatever these are, they're beyond me, and I'm afraid they're beyond the means of the greatest alchemical minds of the Iskaris continent as well."
*Sigh...*
I couldn't help but sigh. I already expected her re
Fire was my favorite basic element.
Thus, while supporting my plump princess with one arm, I used my other arm to grab the elixir that was filled by what me and Aurora assumed to be the raw form of the fire element.
After that I opened a to a large clearing far from civilization as well as my home, cautious what the result of my reckless behavior might become. I didn't want to burn the forest down, nor ruin my home.
I placed Aurora down on her two legs and walked a good distance away from her.
I held the crimson vial in my hand and glanced back at Aurora, who eyed me with a worried gaze while anxiously biting into her lips.
Despite her obvious disagreement with my decision, she made no attempts at stopping me. Aurora understood that my path wasn't always about safety and caution. I tried to minimize risk whenever reasonable, but when I felt the rewards to be too tantalizing, I was ready to accept great risks. This mentality of mine was why I was where I was only a few months into my transmigration.
I lifted the vial to my lips and felt the heat radiate from it even before it touched my skin. My grip tightened, and for a moment, I hesitated. Not out of fear, but because I wanted to savor this moment. I perfectly knew that it was the calm before the storm.
Once done, I raised the fire elixir higher, letting the liquid pour into my mouth. It hit my tongue like liquid flame, burning its way down my throat in a way that was nearly unbearable. Nearly.
However, the moment the elixir reached my stomach, everything changed.
