The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 309 309 - Finding the Manatrum

'I'll try to end this one fast, I don't want to waste too much time on the first potion, after all,' Aiden thought as he knew that there would be a lot more things that he would need to learn in the future.

He needed to learn as much as possible in the month that was to come, that was the only that his shop would actually succeed.

He still didn't know how he would be able to gain Reputation Points, however, he had several ideas and the one that made the most sense was quite simple.

He would gain more and more points as his shop would be getting more popular around this new world.

Who knows, he might be able to use this knowledge in potions to learn the one that Alex, the scientist who was in the first trial had made to make people stronger.

"Take this!" Aiden shouted as he appeared behind the Cyclops cutting both of his angles, wanting that monster to go down.

And the Cyclops exactly did so as it slowly but surely started falling down, now on its knees.

Aiden's goal was now achieved, he could actually reach the Cyclops's neck and that was exactly what he had aimed to do as he ran forward, making sure that there was an aura coating his dagger.

*SLASH*

Without wasting any more time, he slashed the neck of the Cyclops.

Its head was now on the ground rolling away from its body.

Garestsa who was a couple of steps away had her mouth wide open, shocked by what she had seen.

Seeing how he had killed the monster with zero hesitation, she realized that she had been extremely lucky that she was still alive.

She remembered the look in his eyes from the duel that happened between the two of them. She remembered how ruthless he was, diving from the sky and going in for the kill.

Garestsa still had no idea who it was that saved her, but she thanked him whoever it was.

"Just where did he learn those skills, though?" She whispered to herself as she hadn't seen anyone fight like that in her life.

He wasn't using any mana, simply running toward the monster mindlessly slaughtering it as if the monster was only a simple insect that had been waiting patiently to be trampled on.

She knew that he came from far away, but why hadn't she heard where that place was?

Why hadn't she heard anything about that place?

Was it kept secret by someone or had Aiden simply lied about his background?

Both options were possible and Garestsa had no idea how to decide the true one.

"See that? I told you that those monsters are nothing to be worried about," Aiden exclaimed as he slowly walked back toward her, completely ignoring the monster that was on the ground.

Hearing how confident he was, Garestsa had no choice but to appreciate having him protecting her, it was quite a nice feeling to have.

"Good job!" Garestsa answered, removing all the previous thoughts in her mind as it was time to continue exploring the surroundings.

Aiden had a feeling that the Manatrum shouldn't be too far away from them as he continued to look up at all the trees that were surrounding them.

A couple of moments later, they were only a few meters away from the Cyclops's dead body, it seemed that Aiden had finally spotted the Manatrum.

"Look up there! I think that's the plant," Aiden shouted to Garestsa as he flew up with the piece of paper in his hands.

He wanted to make sure that he wouldn't be making any mistakes which is why he started comparing every single thing to the picture he had received from David.

"I think that's it," Aiden exclaimed as he took as many as he possibly could.

He wanted to make sure that even if he failed to make his potions he wouldn't need to come back here as it would make him lose a lot of time.

He took a handful for both him and Garestsa as he went down the tree.

"Alright, pretty sure we got everything that we needed, so let's head back," Aiden as he walked back toward their working spot which was situated around ten minutes from here.

"I'll just make a little sign over here, that way I'll know where I can find Manatrum in the future," Aiden said as he took his dagger and made many slices in the trees surrounding the area.

That way it would be quite easy for him to find the spot in the future.

***

A few minutes later, they were both in front of their cauldrons which had finished heating for a long time.

They were now waiting for David to appear in front of them, however, it didn't seem that it would happen as it had been at least a minute and he still wasn't there, in front of them.

"I guess he went somewhere else in the meantime, well he told us what to do either way," Aiden said out loud.

Garestsa obviously agreed as she couldn't think of any other reason for such a thing to even happen in the first place.

***

The director was currently watching them from far away with a spell which made that possible, he could also hear every single thing that they would be saying.

He had to admit that it was quite funny hearing them, wondering about where he had left.

But, he was quite happy with how rational-minded Aiden was, not panicking at all, keeping his mind focused on the task that was ahead of him.

lightsnοvεl.cοm It also made sense for Aiden to be acting that way since he only had a single month to practice every single thing that he would need to do.

***

'Alright, so the first step is to add the Manatrum,' Aiden thought as he did exactly that, slowly but surely dropping it inside the cauldron.

He made sure that all of the plants went in without any exceptions.

'Now I need to prepare my water,' Aiden thought as he looked around, realizing yet another problem.

He couldn't make water magically appear before him.

"Oh, fuck we need water," Aiden exclaimed as he looked around.

He was currently doing his utmost best, however, there were still no signs of a river.

'I need to fly up, get a better view of everything that's around us,' Aiden thought as he flew as high as he possibly could.

Then, as he was in the air, he made a 360 making sure that he didn't miss anything.

"There's one over there, I'll go get some," Aiden exclaimed as he went back down and took both of their buckets.

'Why didn't we think of that before?' Aiden thought.

Well, the director hadn't told them to do so, but still, they should have thought about it.

***

A few moments later, Aiden was back with both water buckets and both Garestsa and Aiden were now finally ready to start making their first potion.

Well, it wasn't Garestsa's first time, but she didn't seem confident one bit, so it might as well be her first time.
