memory herb

Hahahahaha!!!

Isn't it the kid who walked in alone in the slugs den??

Hahaha he doesn't he didn't even bring even just one giant slug corpse but he walks out with injuries...

Hmphhh even if the slugs are slow they are quite strong you know. Walking in to their den alone with just rank 2 warrior apprentice cultivation is a suicide. He is pretty lucky that he's alive and walks out without a melted body parts

The boy didn't mind their mockery and just whipped out his phone .

Ring!!

Ring!!

After Ace hang up he received another call.

Brother Ace where are you!! Jack's voice rang out of his phone.

I'm in my house... The one I received from grandpa at my 13th birthday.

Ohh you had a house!! Can I just stay there?? I really don't feel like using the money that you gave me..

Ace feels like this conversation is becoming more annoying but he chooses to comply to the future big shot.

Yeah sure... Just use that money to buy some new clothes.. A lot of rooms are free here.. Just bring your things and move in...

Okay!! I will just pack my stuff ! Jack answers cheerfully...

Okay back to the topic why did you call me?? Ace asked.

Ohh yeahh I almost forgot... Ace where can I sell some herbs? Jack questioned.

Dunno... That depends on what herbs are you selling... Ace answers lazily..

Ohh! I'm planning to sell memory herb...

What now???! memory herb?? How can you even get that?? Ace's laziness went away after hearing the name of the herb..

Ohh I got a lot in the slugs den..

There's no way memory herb grows there!!... Okay I won't ask you questions about the herb. But don't sell it there... There's no market prize for a herb that don't even exist in human domain.

What!! Jack got shocked at Ace's answer but he didn't doubt him he even want to laugh hearing Ace's reaction... That herb is a pretty common drop... Every slugs he kills it will drop at least 3 memory herb.

How many herbs do you have?? Ace questions..

Mmmmm at more than a hundred?? Jack glanced at his inventory showing a stack of 368 herbs....

Okay I will buy those with 700 dollars each... Well we can't search for that herbs market price and you will definitely be questioned if you sold those outside... Besides only few people know that herb even exist and even fewer people who knew how to refine it into a pill.

Yeah Ace I can sell it at 700.. I got 368 here I will bring it there....

Yeah see ya!. Ace hangs up excitedly from jacks herbs.

How the hell did that guy get that??? Even I only got to refine memory herb 37 times in my 80 years of working experience...

I can refine those herbs into 3 types of pills. Memory pill that enhances memory while getting a chance for enlightenment for a short period of time. Muscle memory pill that can help his body memorize any move that his body used. Or enlightenment pill which gives him an enlightenment effect for a certain period of time, which needs a lot of rare herbs that with his current status it is impossible to get..

Ace orders a lot of mechanical components to make a body guiding armor. You will only need to download a video of the movements you want to copy and after you equips the armor it will guide the users body with the muscle Memory pill it will bring out even more magical effect. He also bought the materials for mechanical gravitational array, an array combined with technology.. he also bought a bunch of body supplementing herbs for his body tampering for the future.

Ace main job is mechanic but with his current situation he won't be able to put his skills on use and he plans to be an alchemist, to shield himself from his enemies as well to receive the protection of his family. With an alchemist identify he will be able to receive more money, respect and more connection unlike being mechanic which consumes a lot of money and time. But he can easily make those trinkets with his skills.

Mmmm he waited for an hour but The one who arrived first is jack on a taxi not his delivery.

Jack come on in.. Ace invited Jack on his house after he got out of the car.

Jack came out with a dirty stains on his skin and clothes, he also had a little bruises over his body but there is no fatal injuries. He didn't have much baggage and just brought a newly bought bag full of clothes, he looked like he rushed to get here.

Why are you covered with injuries?? Ace found jack's face pretty funny but he hold his laughter back.

.. Well I hunted a bit of giant slugs for some experience. Jack mixed the truth with some lie and answers Ace.

Wait why did your cultivation just got up from warrior apprentice 2 to warrior apprentice 5??Ace has a higher cultivation than jack so he easily found the difference in him.

Well I got a big opportunity in my hunt earlier.

Ohh! Here are the herbs. Jack changed the topic and directly dump all the herbs he got from his inventory. Ohh will you buy my giant slugs corpse??

Wait- wait. Where are you getting that!! You don't even have any storage equipment!!.

Ohh!! That?? its my new powers? Jack used an poor excuse and nervously lied.

Bahh!! Newly awakened powers??please I'm not a kid... Im not going to ask you to explain yourself because we all have our secrets. But don't do that In front of others.. Don't say I didn't warn you!..

Ace is tempted to experiment on Jack but he knows if that is so easy the Jack in his past life couldn't be alive to be a general of humanity.

Tha-thanks are you buying my giant slugs corpse or not??

Well I will buy 14, its not really that rare of a monster but its meat is enough to feed 10 people and it can be considered a delicacy and a unique food. I will buy it 500 each.

Ace picked up his phone and immediately sent the money at Jack.

Ding!

You've receive 265,600 star dollars.

Yeah! I'm rich now!! Jack said excitedly.

Yes you are.. You don't need to be stingy at the 10,000 that I gave you..

The two continued walk into the hallway and Ace asked Jack to drop off the snails straight into the kitchen since he had a strange storage space.

Hey!! Ace kicked the door and greeted the slaves..

Who can cook here! Raise your hands!.

Half of the elves one naga and 5 beast man raised their hands.

Who is confident in their cooking??

All the beast man as a large group of elves lowers their hands.

You!, you! and you! Go to the kitchen. Ace pointed at the 2 elves and the 1 naga who raised their hands.

Ace left with the 3 and the group of slaves just continued trying to refine pills.

By the way did your hunt go?? Ace asks jack who just came back.

Well it was okay. Its just bit inefficient though.

How many did you hunt?

120 plus?? Dunno.

And you call that inefficient. Ace said sarcastically.

Well maybe I can just hunt a higher level monsters.

You can but even with your newly upgraded cultivation the only thing you can safely hunt is the giant slugs.

What!!??

Hmm umm you probably just used the slowness of the slugs to hunt them down.. Most of the monsters near the city is fast or at warrior apprentice 6's speed, and they are really strong. You need to be at least at warrior realm to be able to safely hunt those.

Mmmm maybe I will just stick to giant slugs then....

by the way if you got anymore of those memory herbs give them to me I will give you the same price. Their pretty useful for me...

Ace can replant the memory herbs but it probably will take some time to mature ,but if he bought them at the price of 700 dollars he already considers himself to getting a bargain.

MNM yeah I can. Do you need a steady supply??

Yeahh it will be great if you sell it to me each week. If you can't monthly would be good too.

K weekly then..

Ace is quite surprise that jack agreed easily.

Hey did you have a problem with your hunt??. Ace casually asks.

Well I don't have enough reach with my weapon. It is a hassle to get hit by the slugs even with your equipment you know...

The food Is ready!! The slaves announced.

Give me two plates and deliver the rest to others, you three should eat too .

Ace and Jack settled themselves to one of the tables in the living room and started eating..

Munch munch. I will teach you how to use swords and knives. You and your sister have no proper education any weapon handling since auntie got kicked out of the Spades house so you should probably call her too since you both are just starting to build your foundation and auntie can't teach you anything since she has no cultivation.. Ace said while eating.

Yeah that would be so much help for us. Ace. cheerfully said..

Then you go call your sister and make her come tomorrow...

Mmnnmnnn.. This is quite tasty.

...........

After a few minutes Ace machine parts and materials arrived. He just pointed Jack the available room and locked himself on the masters bedroom...

He skillfully arrange a set of armor and with a little modification he installed a nutrition dispenser. A little device that will continue to pump all the nutrients that his body needs while moving on his own. He just needs to put the body supplementary herbs he bought and the little device will do all the work and will pump the nutrition if his body needed any.

He also made a helmet so his head would be steady and protected while sleeping it also has the function of feeding him the pills in interval. He's not planning to study since Jack said he will be supplying Ace weekly. Memory pill might be the most efficient way to use the herb but, after he got back from years of working hard Ace wants to experience the luxury of being lazy.

He made a batch of muscle memory pill and store it to a bottle from his armor.

Before Ace can lazily train he made a gravitational array that he connected his newly made control panel. He sets the gravity to 3 times and made him immediately kneel because of the pressure.

He played a video of an elite warriors showing off his fancy sword style and immediately fell asleep. Surprisingly his body started to move along with the man in the video while sleeping.
