Chapter 3

"Helen. This..."

"Y-Young master seems to be asking for more?"

"Right? Is that correct?"

Sylvia widened her eyes and picked the spoon up again. This time, she scooped a larger amount than before and poured it into Raon's mouth.

"Ooh-ooh!"

Raon's eyebrows shot up to form a mountain... But he still did not cry. He jerked his hands faster.

"Oh..."

Sylvia's lips parted.

"Do you think Raon understood my intentions?"

"Definitely! It seems that the young master recognizes your intentions and is enduring it."

It was obvious from his scrunched-up expression that he found it bitter. But as he was asking for more, it was clear that he understood and was going to endure the ordeal.

"Raon!"

Sylvia couldn't help but hug Raon tightly.

'Just give me more of the medicine. Faster.'

Raon waved his hand as he tapped on Sylvia's shoulder.

'Even if it is a little bitter, this is nothing. I cannot miss this opportunity.'

It wasn't just any normal medicine. What he needed the most was an elixir with fire properties. Though it was bitter and hot, to the point that his tongue felt numb, he had to finish it all.

"Look at Raon! Don't you think he eats like such a sweetheart?"

"Of course!"

Raon did not let what Sylvia and Helen were saying bother him, swallowing the elixir the moment it passed his lips.

'Though I don't know what it is, the effects are insane.'

The moment he drank the elixir, a fiery energy started burning in his stomach-as if starting a blast furnace. The heat flowed through the mana circuit and started to drive out the ice.

'The effect and concentration of the medicine is just right.'

A strong elixir could actually be poison for a child's weak body.

It seemed that Sylvia and Helen had ensured that the concentration of the elixir was suitable for absorption.

Blerp.

Raon gave a small burp after licking off the remaining elixir on the spoon. He closed his eyes.

"Milady."

"Yes. Let's leave him to sleep."

Sylvia and Helen watched him, evidently moved as their eyes shone, before leaving.

"Whew."

Raon opened his eyes immediately after they had left.

'I don't think they will return for some time.'

And even if they did, they would not bother him.

Since he already had both food and medicine, there was no way either Sylvia or Helen would wake him. Therefore, it was the best moment to practice.

Raon brought the warm energy filling up his body forward and began his practice with the Ring of Fire.

'It will be faster to create the 'Ring of Fire' and melt the ice, thanks to the elixir.'
