"I must say d your rea to that mana potion was quite ued. From what I could tell you were literally overflowing with energy, something that should be impossible." Miach said seriously.
"What do you mean?" I asked fused while giving up my goddess off me since she had me in a death grip.
"Mana potions no matter how good are only supposed to refill the drinkers mana. The leftover effects of the potion are wasted after that. In your case however the small amount of a lootion you swallowed not only refilled your energy but also exceeded your maximum amount as well and not by a small amouher. It's just my theory but I think that it has something to do with that skill of yours. Maybe what it actually does is vert any mana in your body to this cursed energy of yours and so the potiorying to refill a mana reservoir that erpetually emptying." he expined seriously.
"If the version of mana to cursed energy was effit enough that might expin why I got so much out of so little as well." I said finding his theory reasonable.
"Indeed, speaking of you try and guess roughly how much the small amount of the potion you drank gave you so that Naaza and I try and make a diluted version that would be safe for your ption?" Miach said and I was surprised by the offer.
"I might be a little off but around twenty times my previous full amount. After that experience however I imagine my magic stat will increase drastically." I said holy.
Miaodded before starting to mutter with Naaza over the right amount to dilute a mana potion by to achieve the same effect as a normal lootion. To me though it was a bunch of nonsehat I couldn't uand at all. Sounded like chemistry and I fluhat css by a lot. Choosing to stop wasting my time with the two potion makers I turned my attention to the more pressing matter at hand, a certain gy goddess.
"Uh Hestia could you perhaps let me go now? My headache is going away but you doly weigh nothing you know." I said and I could have sworn that I saw a vein pop on her forehead.
"Are you calli?" she asked with a dangerous glint in her eyes.
I shook my head vigorously "Not at all but I am rather unfortable like this." I said holy.
While she was fairly soft that didn't mean having y five pounds of goddess sitting on your chest was fun. She looked a little peeved but still got off me which was a literal weight off my chest a me finally sit up. As Miach promised my headache was easing up over time and was now muanageable than say five minutes ago. I remember that something had happeo my cursed energy just before I passed out from mind zero but I wasn't going to risk it by experimenting until I was clear of my current dition.-
"You had me terrified when you burst into fme like that, I thought you were going to die!" Hestia spoke and got teary towards the end.
I reached out and rubbed the top of her head "While I am happy you care so much, have some faith. I am nothing if not stubborn and won't let just anything cim my life you hear me?" I asked with a fident smile.
"Umu, I'll find your soul and torment you for a thousand years if you leave me for no good reason uood?" she asked with her own smile.
"Sounds like a drag, I think I'll pass." I joked ah ughed.
"Good to see you are back to fine spirits. Naaza and I are done figuring out how much we should dilute a normal mana potion. With the information you gave us this new diluted potion should restore your reservoir and not overflow it by more than a small amount at most which will be fixed as yic stat increases." Miach said after we finished ughing.
"Thanks for the trouble, just let me know what I owe you and I'll pay you back when I ." I said thankfully.
I meant it too si was better for me to have found out about my sensitivity to mana potions in a semi trolled enviro rather than by chugging a full undiluted potion in the dungeon and exploding pathetically. I might be wrong but I am pretty sure the only reason I didn't explode from the small amount I drank earlier was because regrowing Naazas arm was just that expensive. by my calcutions the amount of energy I used was the same as I would normally have at H rank magic at level two.-
In other words I had used WAY more cursed energy than I had any business with at my current level ress. It probably wasn't a pointless amount of danger I suffered even if we disregard Naazas new arm as since I had pushed my energy and teique beyond it's current limits my stats were likely to show great improvement on my update. It may even be enough to be time for me to ehe dungeon for the first time.
Miaterrupted my thoughts with something that caused my brain to short circuit for a sed. "Oh no we could never accept your money after you risked so mud gave my child back her arm and I pray her hope as well. All your potions at the blue pharmacy will be free for as long as you e here." he vowed solemnly.
As you imagine I had trouble accepting this vow as it made no sense logically and could even be sidered foolish from a business standpoint.
"Wait! While I appreciate the sehat is far too much to accept! How about you give me free mana potions sihose should be the cheapest to purchase sihey are so heavily diluted? AH! Wait I request a potion as well, ohat if you succeed will bring you a great deal of money?" I spoke hurriedly while getting a great idea towards the end as well.
"We accept the mana potions being given for free since as you said them being so diluted makes them much cheaper. What is this potion though and how would it bring us a bunoney?" Naaza asked before Miach could speak again.
"Have you ever gohrough the dungeon square when people are ing from the dungeon?" I asked and they both nodded fused. I ti this point "Then you are likely familiar with the stench they leave behind as well. My idea is a potion that removes this smell or at least hides it until the adventurer bath. If you advertise correctly I 't see why this wouldn't immediately bee a big hit iy and perhaps further."
