Asura Conqueror

Eva went to the bathroom as Nexus instructed him to.

'What's the big deal? Why the bathroom?' Eva wondered.

She began drinking the potions first. 1 potion every 2 minutes. As the liquid entered her body, she still couldn't feel any changes. But after a while, she could sense her mana was starting to react. She felt a grumble in her stomach. A few seconds later steam was coming out of her body. Eva didn't stop and continued to ingest them.

Her body started to smell bad and her stomach started to churn. An explicable feeling could be felt all over her body now that she's taking the pills.

She directly sat on the toilet. Her skin had black oily substances going out of them. This went on for a good while.

--------------------

Marcus arrived at the living room inside the 'Destrucstone'. He went to the alchemy room to check on his two companions.

Nexus stood beside the shelves, reading.

"How was her progress?" Marcus strolled in.

Nexus placed the book back on the shelf and looked at Marcus "It's only been like what? An hour or two and you're already asking that? She's in her room right now ingesting the needed medicines."

As Nexus finished what he said, Eva strolled in. Her hair tied into a bun.

She already changed her clothes. Eva was now wearing white clothing, something similar to a Hanfu. Nexus was the one who placed this in her room. She liked it so she wore it.

Nexus looked at her, spellbound.

She no longer had eyebags. Her skin looked a lot whiter and smoother. Also, the Hanfu-like clothing could not hide how big her boobs were.

The models on billboards shown on buildings which were ladies from 2nd rate countries could hardly compare to her body.

Eva's currently embarrassed. What happened in the bathroom was something she never wanted people to know.

It was mixed with happiness too. A while ago, when she looked in the mirror, she could see that she looked more beautiful.

"Ahem" Marcus coughed bringing Nexus back.

"Big Sis you look extremely dazzling. Look, my cat can't take his eyes off you."

Eva blushed as she looked at Nexus who was currently glaring at Marcus.

"I didn't know that those pills and potions could also enhance beauty. It's just that process..." Eva's voice trailed off at the end.

"That happens to all of us who take those on our first time. In the second round, it won't be as much as the first. On the third and last round would just be the oily substance that will come out. Those things are what block the pathways where mana travel." Marcus explained trying to make himself sound like a profound teacher.

"I still have to do it two more times?" Eva asked. The tribulation she went through on that toilet was insane and if possible, she didn't want to experience it again.

"Don't worry Big Sis, not only will mana be able to enter your body a lot easier, but you'll also become a lot more beautiful. That means you'll be making this cat beside me drool." Marcus poked fun at Nexus who was beside him.

Marcus already feels comfortable being around these two. Unlike the first day he came to the mortal realm where his mind was in utter turmoil.

He didn't even trust the cat back in the heavenly realm. Though he was useful by giving him the technique back then, he still didn't trust him.

"You!" Nexus raised his voice.

"What me? You messed with me a lot of times and now we're even." Marcus recounted the time's Nexus messed with him including the ones in the heavenly realm and the one when they just arrived in Planet Loira.

Nexus countered with a few defenses. Saying that it was Marcus' fault for not trusting him.

Eva laughed seeing the two arguing. She went to the table to grab her skill book.

"Big Sis, how is it? Is holy magic to your liking?" Marcus and Nexus stopped and went close to her.

"Mhm, I love it. It's like holy magic is calling me to practice it. Light magic is also really interesting. Being able to bend light at will is something I look forward to." Eva slightly smiled.

"You probably have an extremely strong affinity to it. Ohh, or you could have a physique that is related to holy magic." Marcus searched for things in his head.

"People with lots of potential can be found in different places. I wouldn't be surprised that there is a true genius anywhere in this country or any of the close countries." Nexus grabbed an alchemical apparatus that had liquid inside and began shaking it.

"By the way, while I was reading the alchemy book a while ago, I had an idea," Eva looked at both of them.

That got the attention of the boys.

"So I got a degree in something related to business, and I was thinking that potions can't only be used for curing or strengthening people. So why don't we place it on drinks like beer, wine, and others? I know that there are a lot of businesses that do these but as you said, this is a unique book. The things that could be concocted by our business will be of higher quality compared to the others. I already thought of ideas, something like people should buy both a drink and pill and take it together to make it taste good and have better effects."

Marcus and Nexus' eyes went wide. They once talked about making a business but both of them had no idea how. They'd probably bankrupt the place. They thought of waiting for Marcus to breakthrough and use 'Army Manipulation'. But now that they have Eva, things will be a lot smoother. Plus now they know what business to go into.

"We should run a bar," Nexus exclaimed.

Marcus grinned and said, "We should totally run a bar."

"I have to study about business a lot more and freshen up my memories so don't get too excited yet," Eva said seeing the two boys in front of her getting excited.

"Eva, there's no rush. Take your time. You're learning a lot of things right now so it would be best if you take it slow. You could have even rested today." Nexus didn't want Eva to be overworked again. She's only an Elite.

Marcus nodded, "Nexus is right Big Sis. We never said that we would start right away. We'll be building one when we reach the 2nd rate state."

Eva smiled at them. Touched by how caring they were. It's like she finally found a family other than her sister.

They talked for a while about the future until Eva insisted that she had to start practicing. Nexus would stay here by her side.

Marcus on the other hand has to find someone.

-----------------------

9 pm Outside a luxurious villa.

Marcus tailed the bastard the whole day. He asked Nexus to check how strong the people guarding him were and he confirmed that they were at rank 1 Commander, two of them. The other guards were just Elites.

With the Stone of Destruction, he didn't have to worry about getting found out by the two Commanders. It was like there was a veil covering him.

Marcus in his red robe is now standing beside a tree in a villa. Nikolo Krimz, the heir of Kellar Core Traders and the one who Marcus is following.

The villa was only two stories. It had an air of luxuriousness to it.

Nikolo is currently having a party. There were people outside by the pool but Nikolo wasn't one of them.

He was also told by Nexus that the 2 commanders were high on alert.

The elites weren't there. They had to pick up important guests.

Marcus of course has no plans on fighting them. He is currently in no position to mess with commanders head-on.

Soon a black-haired man with a long nose who looked to be in his early twenties walked out and went near the pool, where the jacuzzi was at.

Marcus eyed him. He then activated the 'Destrucstone' and used 'Lightning Form' and zipped towards Nikolo.

As he got closer the Commanders noticed the disturbance in mana.

Marcus thought he was so slick but he underestimated the Commanders as they reached by the side of Nikolo.

Marcus deactivated 'Lightning Form'. He was now in a pinch. If he fights, it'll be like digging his own grave. Fighting one injured commander last time was already tough. Now he has to fight 2 fully healthy ones.

He could at most reach rank 9 Elite with the stone. This is without adding emotions to the equation.

If he runs away, it'll hurt his own pride.

'I could still turn this around. My spells and techniques are of higher rank than theirs.' Marcus thought. He could only bet that the difference in the quality of spells taught in skill books would give him something to work with.

Both the commanders stared at the red-robed man in front of them.

News that a vigilante has been roaming around Levi City has already spread and naturally, these two knew who this person in front of them was.

The people by the side already ran away. Nikolo on the other hand didn't. He wanted people to see how brave he was.

'His target is clearly the young master. If he dies, we'll surely get hanged.' Thought one of the commanders.

The other one attacked right away. He gathered mana to his hand and conjured a water spear. The commander then dashed towards Marcus.

He stabbed his spear but missed. The red-robed man turned into Vermillion lightning.

Marcus conjured a vermillion colored javelin and threw it at the one who attacked him.

'I'll just try my best to enjoy fighting with these guys. To push my limits.'
