Chapter 86: A plan to make it big

From the looks of it, Krillin and his gang definitely didn't expose the truth of the consequence of offending Marvin to anyone. Being beaten by the trashiest ability user was an embarrassing event for them. Thus, the entire school still didn't know that Marvin was no longer a rank-1 ability user that anyone can bully.

"They will still pick up on me," Marvin said under his breath as they made their way to the infirmary.

Thankfully, along the way, they met with no troubles.

A few minutes later, they entered the infirmary.

"Hello students, how may I help you?" A nurse with wavy golden hair and ocean blue eyes asked but her eyes interestingly stared at Marvin whose silver eyes and handsome face were hard to not continuously stare at.

Is this what a celestial face looks like?

"My friend broke his finger. We would be troubling you to heal it." Marvin replied.

The school has a lot of fights going on. Broken fingers and bones were a common sight. Thus, the golden-haired nurse didn't felt startled by Liam's broken forefinger.

"I will gladly help. Please sit here," the nurse said, and Fatty Liam sat down on the seat near the nurse while saying: "Thank you!" before the curvy nurse eagerly and gently healed Fatty's forefinger by using her healing ability.

She placed her hands over his broken finger. A green light shined on the nurse hands and his broken finger completely healed

"Come again often," the nurse said while looking at Marvin before he and Fatty Liam stepped out of the infirmary.

"I will be going to the rooftop for fresh air. You wanna follow?"

"Why not? I got a bag of choco sticks in my spatial rin. You want some?" Fatty offered some of his snacks to Marvin, but he shamelessly took them all.

"Consider it payback for what I did."

"I won't bicker with you," Fatty pulled out a big packet of cheese-flavored lays from his spatial ring.

He came fully prepared!

His spatial might only be storing foodstuff!

"Fatty, why didn't you fight back?" Marvin asked while leaning against the wall, and gazing at the clouded white skies with gentle sunshine.

"What do you mean?"

"I know you are powerful enough to take them all down."

Fatty eyes opened wide in disbelief.

How does he know?

He has never told anyone about how strong he truly is.

Not even his mother!

So how could Marvin know?

His facial expressions were pretty vivid and Marvin determined what he was thinking.

"It was easy to guess that you are strong. Your grandpa is a famous Alchemist. I recently became a rank-10 talisman master myself and I know how easy it is to make money for a person with a magical profession. Since your grandpa is an alchemist, you are surely not lacking in money. Eating magical beasts cores like candy must be easy for you. Lastly, I can sense magic power. I felt your powerful magic power fluctuation when you were being beaten by the bullies, from that I determined you are at least a rank-10 Fire-type ability user."

The day after he received the skill Inspect, Marvin already knew that Fatty Liam was a rank-5 mana channel opening expert. At that time, he didn't know what that term means and he also had no interest in prying into Liam's secret. But he was now curious about why Fatty would silently endure the beating rather than exposing his strength.

Fatty bitterly smiled and said, "I can't help it. I lack control over my ability and it's sure death if I use it without learning how to control it first. You know, I killed someone precious to me because of my incompetence. Anyway, I promised my old man that I won't use my ability while fighting against humans before I can control it, I don't want to mistakingly kill someone and get jailed for life,"

A melancholic and sad look appeared on his face as he revealed his secret to Marvin. Liam didn't fight back against the bullies even though he could beat them all, it's because he'll burn them to death and might even get jailed himself.

Marvin didn't ask who that precious someone was as that will open Liam's old emotional wounds.

Marvin patted his shoulder and said, "Cheer up. By the way, I have a huge opportunity to obtain a successful future, and I'm thinking of letting you in on it,"

Liam was a coward but a trustworthy person. Marvin had plans to make it big and he needed trustworthy people that have access to magical resources.

"Haha, I can't always leech off of my gramps. Bro, just say the word. What part do I need to play?"

Fatty Liam was fast to catch up with his words, and he didn't disappoint Marvin's expectations.

Hearing his words, Marvin smiled silly, and replied, "Leech off your gramps. I will give you a list of herbs. Use his status to get as many of those magical herbs as you can from Heaven's Alchemist Guild. They probably wouldn't stop you since you're the grandson of venerable Alchemist Williams who created magic power sensing pills!"

Marvin had seen Liam's grandfather when he visited his home but at that time he didn't find him impressive as he was a seemingly old man. He got information about Liam's gramps from the network just some months ago and the magic power sensing pills were a hot item he created. These pills are famous and used by experts who have reached the realm of "Magical beings".

Hearing his words, even fatty became happy.

So I just gotta do what I am best at!

That's gonna be easy.

He has run rampant in the lower District by using Gramps Williams's name, and although he was spoiled by his grandfather, fatty Liam never did anything bad since he was kept under the strict stick of his "Mother".

"Though what do you need the magic herbs for?" Fatty Liam asked.

"To create a pill that will shake the entire world. The pill can help open mana channels!"

Hearing his words, Fatty felt like he will die due to a heart attack.

Cash appeared in his eyes, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Holy Fuck!"

He only calmed down after a while.

An alchemist was needed to create a pill. Thus, fatty Liam asked,

"Will we be using my grandfather to create this world-shaking pill? Its content is beneficial thus I am sure gramps will share it with the entire race without thinking about the profit. Though he'll hand us a fair share that's all."

The Mana channel opening pill was beneficial to the entire human race!

But it was too big for a profit for Marvin to happily give it away!

He wanted to milk all the benefits he can from this pill!

There's no way he will give the recipe and secrets of this pill to anyone.

"We won't be. We won't be needing an alchemist."

"Then what? How are we going to "

"What do you think?" Marvin flashed him a mysterious smile.

Seeing his smile, Fatty was reminded of what Marvin said.

He was a rank-10 talisman master!

Now that he is asking for herbs, could it be?

"You are an alchemist?" Liam exclaimed, shocked by his thoughts.

Marvin didn't decline nor agreed.

He wasn't an alchemist but was planning to become one.

"Here are the ingredients you need to get. There is only 50% of the required herb listed in the list. Get as many as you can without raising suspicion." Marvin said before handing out a list to fatty Liam.

How fatty Liam do it, is up to him.

Marvin didn't give the entire recipe of the mana channel opening pill.

Fatty understood his reasons for not trusting him entirely.

He would do the same if he was the one in possession of the recipe.

"I will get them in a day or two, but there is one herb that even the guild might not let me take." Fatty honestly replied after taking a look at the recipe.

"Get what you can before the end of this month, the next month I'll set out to the wilderness, and get the remaining magical herbs," Marvin said.

He was planning to go to the wilderness all by himself to search for the herbs which they will not be able to obtain from the Heavens Alchemist Guild.

"I'll come with you, I don't think I can use my ability in the stronghold but nothing is stopping me from letting my fire go berserk against a horde of magical beast," Fatty Liam said with a laugh.

"I thought you were a coward that will prefer to take the backseat to enjoy the ride to the peak."

Fatty Liam rolled his eyes and seriously said: "We'll need a market to sell this good. This pill will attract serious troubles. The families will try to uncover our identities even if we sell them in secret, and they won't stop at anything before they get their hands on the pill recipe."

"Ever heard about the Mystic Shop?" Marvin asked.

Who hasn't heard about the mystic shop?

It's not like fatty was living under the rocks.

He nodded his head, and said, "Yes, what about it?"

"I got personal relations with the owner of the mystic shop. The rest you can infer by yourself." Marvin said, he was gonna invite Leilani as his last business partner.

He was sure she wouldn't decline as the profit of the mana channel opening pill was too good to be true.

Furthermore, the protection provided by the Mystic Shop will keep their identity safe. They will be anonymous and the families won't be able to bother them.
