They stayed like that for a while and the first to recover his composure was Isengar who raised his fist to his mouth and coughed slightly as he inhaled from his pipe.
Hearing the cough, Adryan also recovered and felt that his chest no longer felt as tight as before.
The weight was still there but now he could breathe easier and not feel like he was suffocating.
Seeing that his student was watching him, Isengar nodded slightly before speaking.
"You know you can use Grievius's characteristics to advance when you manage to fully digest the Provocator potion"
As Isengar spoke he saw how Adryan put a hand to his head and began to scratch himself with an expression of embarrassment, this made him show an expression of alarm.
"Adryan don't tell me that you..."
Isengar spoke in an incredulous voice as his pipe fell out of his mouth.
The redhead simply nodded as he spoke with a somewhat awkward voice.
"The potion was fully digested at the party and I was planning to collect the ingredients after I handed over Grievius's characteristics to you."
"This is ridiculous...."
Was all the detective said as he put a hand to his forehead and his expression was one of disbelief.
Looking at the redhead while still having his hand on his forehead, Isengar asked what he was missing.
"I need 80 ml of Blood of a Fire Lion,10 drops of Sun essential oil and 5 grams of solidified lava"
Hearing the materials the redhead needed ,Isengar could only nod weakly as he heaved a heavy sigh.
"I have the blood of the fire lion and the solidified lava but not that oil, you should be able to buy it on the black market under the Bravehearts Bar"
Nodding at Isengar's words, Adryan added to his schedule to bother the old man today when he visits Bravehearts Bar.
"So how much would it be for blood and lava?"
Picking up his pipe and cleaning it with his blue handkerchief, the detective replied in a flat voice.
"Fire lion's blood is an excellent material for most medicinal potions and also quite annoying to get so it would be 250 pounds for it, solidified lava is a good ingredient for special bullets but it's quite easy to get if you know where to search so it would be 60 pounds"
When he heard the price, Adryan just nodded, 310 pounds for the complementary ingredients of a sequence 7 potion was already normal and he could already imagine the price of higher sequence ingredients.
Pulling out his wallet and in front of the eyes of the detective,Adryan counted out 310 pounds and handed it to Isengar who had a quivering eyebrow.
"I'll bring you the ingredients in a moment, wait here"
It didn't take long for Isengar to go to his hidden storeroom and bring back two medium containers sealed with a wall of spirituality and place them in front of Adryan.
Who released the seal of one of them to see that inside there was a vial of blood that was emanating a high temperature and felt the desire to drink it, Adryan closed the container again and re-formed the wall of spirituality before the eyes of Isengar.
Checking the other one, Adryan saw how there was a black bag and opening it, Adryan saw inside these some black stones that have weird form.
Resealing the container and putting the two inside his jacket, Adryan thanked Isengar who just nodded with a small smile.
Also keeping the Hangover Time as well as the container with the characteristics of Grievius, Adryan gave a small bow and said goodbye to Isengar who stayed in his living room smoking.
Being in another public carriage, an idea flashed in the head of Adryan who had a short stop at a store to get back on the public carriage with a cloth bag in hand.
Now he continued his way towards Bravehearts Bar while a smirk formed on his face.
Standing in front of the old man who had a hand on his forehead and gave him a tired look, he asked him for 1 pound and then told him to follow him.
Adryan followed the old man to the end of the bar that was guarded by 2 muscular men who had weapons on their belts.
Walking through the door, Adryan could see the closest thing to the street market of his previous life.
It seemed that the basement of the Bar was a very large warehouse in which it looked like a small market with stalls on the sides, vendors who talked loudly trying to promote their products and shops that sold amulets.
Adryan didn't give any importance to the amulet shop since he well remembered what Klein said about them.
And he didn't have the knowledge or inspiration from it to know which was real and which was a scam.
So the only thing he sat down in was looking for the oil he needed and after half an hour asking between the stalls and one or the other trying to rip him off, Adryan arrived at a stall whose roof was a white cloth.
On the table of this booth Adryan saw a large bottle with bright yellow liquid like the sun and he felt a slight attraction to it.
'Bingo' with a smile Adryan approached the stall and seeing how someone approached the vendor, he got up with a business smile.
"What would you like to buy at good Jimmy's stall sir?"
"What is the yellow liquid in that bottle?" the redhead asked as he pointed to the bottle from before.
"That would be a bottle of Sun essential oil exported directly from Intis sir"
said the seller, looking at the bottle that the man was pointing at with pried.
Adryan with bright eyes spoke.
"How much would it be for 10 milliliters?"
"90 pounds sir"
Adryan's expression turned sour and the vendor just crossed his arms as he whispered indignantly.
"You must know that getting this oil was a pain in the ass, you know how Intis believers are, so if you don't like the price, why don't you go to hell"
Adryan just grunted as he took out the money and paid the man who now had a bright smile and pulled out a scale from under the table along with a vial.
'Klein would have convulsions if he knew how much I spent for oil.....' Adryan thought as he watched intently as the vendor poured the oil into the vial.
Adryan was now again standing in front of the old man and the much loved Maric was on one side of the room playing cards not interested in what the others were chatting.
"That would be all, old man, thank you very much. I would also like to speak with Mr. Maric alone."
Maric put down his cards and looked at the redhead with a raised eyebrow while the old man just looked at the two of them before nodding and leaving the room.
When they were alone Adryan shot Maric a smile before pulling out a silver knife and putting up a wall of spirituality.
Seeing the redhead's actions, Maric became serious and dropped the cards while looking directly at the redhead.
"What do you want to talk about ?"
Adryan took a medium pot from his cloth bag and placed it on one of the pool tables.
"In fact, I didn't want to talk about anything, I just wanted you to watch my back for a few minutes"
Maric's brown eyes gleamed with maliciousness and he began to slowly get up from his chair along with his zombies.
But before he could say or do anything Maric watched as Adryan pulled out a spiritually sealed container and undoing the seal he pulled out a red vial.
Opening it, he poured the liquid into the pot, being that Maric had passed for Werewolf his senses had sharpened to the extreme and being a greater sequence now those senses sharpened even more, that's why he was sure that that red liquid was the blood of some animal.
'He's not going to think about advancing here, is he?' The doubt in Maric's mind was answered when he saw how the redhead took out another container and releasing the seal, he took out a bag and threw some black stones into the pot.
After that he saw how he took out a vial with a golden yellow liquid and poured it into the pot.
"I decided to advance here because I am being watched by the Nighthawks and advancing in my house is very dangerous"Adryan spoke in a cheerful voice as he watched the ingredients in the pot interact and reached back into his jacket.
"Wait what did you say?"Maric responded instinctively but Adryan completely ignored the question.
Before Maric could process Adryan's words, he took out one last container and undoing the seal he took out a red stone from it and after looking at it for a few seconds he threw it into the mixture in the pot.
"Don't worry I made sure I lost them before coming here so you won't have to deal with the officers."Adryan added calmly as if he was talking about the weather and not how he had lost the Nighthawks.
"..."
Maric just had a blank face and could only watch as the redhead finished making his potion, and he poured it into a glass of wine that was there.
The potion was bright orange in color and gave off strong heat. Adryan closed his eyes for a few seconds to meditate and calm his emotional state.
Knowing that it was already too late, Maric could only sit back in his chair and command his zombies to do the same, but they all kept their gazes on the redhead who had opened his eyes.
Looking into Maric's malicious brown eyes, Adryan just raised the glass with the potion as if he were raising a toast.
"Cheers Mr. Maric"
Saying this, Adryan raised the glass to his lips and began to drink the potion in large gulps.
Adryan could feel the potion going down his throat, he could feel it burning his throat and his skin and hair began to smoke.
Closing his eyes, Adryan entered a meditative state to control the effect of the potion on his body.
Adryan could feel how his spirituality shot up and multiplied several times what he had, he could also feel how he was getting hotter representing his new ability with fire.
After a few minutes the smoke coming out of Adryan's skin stopped and only the excess of spirituality remained, the redhead continued meditating to control this and after 10 minutes he opened his red eyes that now seemed slightly brighter.
"Congratulations"
Turning his gaze to Maric, Adryan gave him a slight smile as he held out his hand and a beautiful orange flame formed in it.
This orange flame took on the shape similar to that of a raven that spread its wings and began to fly around the room.
Watching how the fire raven flew across the room and how he could control it a smile formed on Adryan's face.
Controlling the fire raven, Adryan made it do a quick zigzag turn before shooting towards him and he just held out his left hand and snapped his fingers making the raven disappear.
"Thank you for taking care of me Mr. Maric"
Was what Adryan said before forming a fire hat in his right hand and a cane in his left hand and giving a deep bow to Maric whose eyebrow trembled just like his hand.
"You finished?"
Adryan gave him another big smile before pulling about 10 pounds from his pocket, walking over to where Maric was sitting and placing the money on the table in front of him.
"Nice doing business with you" as he said that he placed the fire hat on his chest and bowed again to Maric whose hands were shaking.
Seeing this, Adryan kept his smile, the fire hat and the cane disappeared and the redhead went to the door of the room.
When he opened it the wall of spirituality fell apart and the redhead turned and winked at Maric before leaving the room.
Now alone, Maric let out a strong growl as he closed his eyes and meditated, and his hands that were still shaking slowly slowly stopped shaking.
The reflection of a blonde, blue-eyed woman appeared in the window and she looked at Maric who was still meditating.
