Chapter 205 - At the Adventurer's Guild

The day after ordering the magic tools at Inba's shop, Yuri visited the Adventurer's Guild in the morning. Taking advantage of a summons from the guild, he had declared a holiday from the Magic Stone Tool creation guidance. It was Yuri's judgment that Faren was tired from the unfamiliar work, though in reality, that wasn't the only reason. His thirty seven years of life experience in his previous life were not just for show.

The matter that Naval, the Guild Master of the Adventurer's Guild, brought up to Yuri was...

"Potions? The ones I made?"

It was a request to sell them some of Yuri's homemade potions.

"Well, I don't mind selling them, but why? They're just low-grade potions made by a child through trial and error."

Yuri said this from the bottom of his heart, but the adventurers listening nearby all retorted internally, "What part of that is a low-grade potion?!"

"The method might be for a low-grade potion, but the ingredients you're using are anything but ordinary, aren't they? You don't use the livers of Monocorn Bears or Bicorn Bears in a normal low-grade potion, do you?"

"That's right!" the adventurers thought to themselves.

"Well, yes, I did substitute some of the ingredients with what I had on hand."

"Treating a monster's liver as something you just have on hand..."

The Guild Master was taken aback by Yuri, who casually treated an ingredient that would cost several gold coins as something he just had lying around, but Yuri had his own justification. Where he lived, these things were actually easier to obtain. What was wrong with using what you have?

"No, I'm not saying it's wrong. I'm just impressed at how different things are from down here."

The Guild Master shook his head to clear away the unnecessary sentiment and formally requested the potions from Yuri again.

"Anyway, whether it's because of the ingredients or something else, your potions are highly effective, Yuri. The guild wants them, no matter what. But since the ingredients are what they are, honestly, what's the cost price?"

These were potions made with things like Monocorn Bear liver at the very least, and possibly even Gambit Grizzly or Tyranbot liver. He couldn't buy them without confirming the cost price first.

"They're not that expensive. Even if I say I use the livers, the amount used in a potion is minuscule. Besides, I source all the ingredients myself."

For Yuri, he was just making them as part of his Pharmacology practice. Honestly, he wouldn't mind giving them away for free, but it seemed the Adventurer's Guild couldn't accept that given their position. After hearing the ratio of raw materials, the Guild Master seemed to ponder for a moment before offering a price about twice the retail price, not the purchase price, of a commercially available low-grade potion.

"Are you sure? Is it really okay for me to receive this much?"

"It's fine. The ingredients are what they are, and the effect is almost on par with a mid-grade potion."

In terms of effect alone, a normal mid-grade potion would probably be better, but...

"There's something called a cooldown time. The higher the grade of the potion, the more restrictions there are on consecutive use. But your potions, Yuri, have a short cooldown time for how effective they are. That's a great help to adventurers."

"So that's why. But Guild Master, these are just homemade potions for my own use. There will be some variation in the ingredients and effects."

"Yeah, that's fine. We'll sort that out on our end."
