The next day arrived. After being informed by Maria that Nash had not left the basement since the day
before to eat or drink, Hera felt her heart break. Thus, she was now carrying a meal down to the
basement for him.
While she did not understand alchemy, she was certain that Nash’s prolonged work on it must have
exhausted him. Not eating all day would have certainly worn his body down.
When she pushed open the basement door, Hera caught a whiff of a -refreshing herbal aroma.
She spotted Nash sitting cross-legged on the cold floor with his eye closed.
This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.
“Honey?” Hera called out yfully.
Nash slowly opened his eyes, his bloodshot irises catching Heral attention.
Hera felt her heart seize as she rushed over, her voice trembling.”
Your… Your eyes…”
Nash softly smiled. “I’m fine. I just haven’t gotten any sleep for t long.” His red eyes were the result of
excessive usage of his Th
Eye, but he brushed it off with a casual excuse to prevent Hera worrying.
Hera ced the meal to the side and said in a tone that was filled with authority, “Go on. Quickly eat
and off to bed you go!”
“Mm, the pill will be done in no time I’ll eat soon,” Nash replied as he looked at Hera’s slightly
displeased expression.
Hera sat down next to Nash. She touched his face gently, her eyes. reddening as she said, “Honey,
you’re working so hard.”
Nash grasped her hand and kissed it lightly. “Snatching someone. from the gates of hell is no easy
task. You go rest. I’m already at the final stage and can’t afford to be distracted,” he replied with a soft
chuckle.
Hera leaned over, nted a kiss on Nash’s cheek, and said, “You’d better eatter, or I’ll be really
upset!”
“Yes, my wife!” Nash grinned.
Hera giggled. “You rascal! I’m off, then!” She wanted to stay with Nash longer but was worried about
disturbing him. If her interferenc led to the failure of the alchemical process, it could have dire
consequences. Hence, Hera left the basement.
Nash took a Rejuvenation Pill and stoked the me to the max. A peculiar and eerie wave of heat
swept over him. The blue light in t
Divine Farmer’s Cauldron began to distort. Just what kind of n was a third-grade pill fire that it
seemed to even threaten his soul?
Nash took a deep breath. He had even considered using his finge test out the me’s power.
Two ordinary pearl-sized pills were spinning around swiftly in the Divine Farmer’s Cauldron. This
tempering stage would take about hours. Nash activated his Third Eye to observe the toxins sepa
within the pills.
Outside the vi, not far away, Sydney gritted her teeth while scanning a code to transfer money to an
elderly man. Meanwhile, the said man smiled with satisfaction.
“If your driving skills aren’t up to par just hire a driver. You’re lucky I’m as fit as a horse. If it were
anyone else, they’d be pushing up daisies. by now.” After saying that, he held his hands behind his
back and walked away slowly.
“That old coot! If only I hadn’t hit the brakes earlier!” Sydney fumed
Hér grandfather’s birthday was in a few days. He initially arranged for someone to deliver an invitation
to Nash, but she felt that the core members of the Zell family should be the ones to deliver it personall
to show their sincerity.
Hence, she had personally driven to Royal Bay to hand Nash his invitation. It was indeed quite a show
of sincerity.
She had been driving for a long time without any issues but ended i in an ident at Royal Bay. No, it
was not an ident at all. The mi had clearly set her up.
He continued crossing the road even after she had honked at him was obvious that he had been
attempting to stage an ident.
However, she had not adhered to the speed limit signs within the estate either, so she took the 80,000-
dor fine as a lesson lear
Sydney returned to the driver’s seat and went on her way, this time a careful speed of 20 mph.
Meanwhile, Hera was taking Helena out for a walk when she happened to run into Sydney as she was
getting out of her car. “Hera, is Nash home?”
