The Bizarre Wizarding World-Chapter 203 - 163 School Heritage and Magic Erasure Potion (4.4k)_3
Betty shook her head, knowing Lillian's personality and no longer trying to persuade her.
"Although my favor might not mean much to you, if converted into Magic Stones, it would be at least five figures ...
Moreover, although the Magic Erasure Potions aren't expensive, they are always in high demand and limited by raw materials. Those madmen heading to the Underground Cave would fight bloody battles for it! Getting it from places other than the Underground Cave..."
"Betty."
Betty paused and sighed,
"Alright, alright... I can't argue with you."
Saying this, she reached out to pat Lillian on the head.
But the next second, she was stopped by Lillian's piercing gaze as if it were something tangible.
Seeming to cover up her embarrassment, Betty cleared her throat and turned to Colin,
"How many Demon Extinguishing Potions do you need?"
"I'd like to first understand the specific amount of Demon Extinguishing Potion needed to completely erase Magic Power."
Colin pondered for a moment and then asked,
"Are you an Advanced Wizard Apprentice?"
"Yes." Colin nodded.
"A minimum-quality half-bottle will last about 24 hours," she explained. "During this period, as long as the Magic Power produced inside your body doesn't exceed... um, about ten times your own Magic Power, it will remain neutralized."
The target audience for this Demon Extinguishing Potion isn't Apprentice Wizards, and its design isn't really meant to completely eradicate Magic Power...
But when used on Colin, it's an overkill—half a bottle would suffice to eliminate all his Magic Power.
"I understand," Colin nodded and, after a moment's thought, said, "I might need forty-five bottles."
If what Betty said was true, those forty-five bottles should last him about three months.
Three months – enough time, with his previous rate of practicing Circulation Meditation and the complex practice method he later discovered, to push his progress in Tin Saint Meditation to the golden level.
"That's possible," Betty said with a slight frown—forty-five bottles were still within her limits.
Taking a pause, she continued, "For Lillian's sake, I'll give you a discount, nine thousand Magic Stones for forty-five bottles."
'Nine thousand Magic Stones?!'
Although he was somewhat prepared, he was still slightly startled by the price.
"That would be acceptable," Colin breathed lightly and said, "Thank you, Lady Betty."
After Colin spoke, it was Betty's turn to be surprised.
Nine thousand Magic Stones wasn't much for an Official Wizard, but for an Apprentice Wizard, it was definitely a substantial amount.
She hadn't expected Colin to agree so readily.

Lillian, standing beside them, was also surprised; she even thought of offering Colin some Magic Stones to borrow.
Realizing her intention, Betty casually spoke,
"I'll need some time to arrange the stock... come here with the Magic Stones three days later to collect them."
"Alright," Colin responded gravely.
"Since everything is settled, it's also time to leave," Lillian said.
"Lillian—" Betty reluctantly spoke, "You hardly come by, and you're leaving so soon?"
"Betty, you know I have other matters," Lillian said, her voice softening slightly in apology.
"Well, alright." Seeing this, Betty didn't persist and sighed as she said goodbye to Lillian.
Stepping out of the gate,
Lillian stopped and said, "I'm heading back to the School. Are you going to the School too?"
Colin shook his head.
"Then that's it, goodbye."
"Lillian senior," Colin suddenly called out to her.
"What is it?" Lillian asked, puzzled.
Colin paused, and placing his right hand on his chest, he bowed slightly as he sincerely said,
"Thank you, Lillian senior. The Demon Extinguishing Potion will be of great help to me. I will remember this favor."
Lillian was slightly taken aback, an expression of surprise crossing her delicate features; she clearly hadn't expected Colin's gesture.
"No need to thank me, Colin junior," she responded lightly, "I'll be going ahead then."
"Alright, goodbye, Lillian senior."
Colin watched as she boarded a public carriage.
A breeze lifted the curtain of the carriage window, and in a fleeting glance, he thought he saw Lillian's usually stern and cold expression thaw a little.
