Remi used [Blizzard] to make snow so that she could turn the potions into smoothies.
Nobody said no to berry flavoured smoothies.
While Remi was confident, Thor had been listening to the parts of the conversations which related to ruining someone's potential with too much of a good thing. He trusted his little sister, but she got too enthusiastic about her projects, and she didn't study humans much. There was a risk that like the first day's Royal Rank soup, this was going to overwhelm them, but because this was a potion forcing them to gain power, it might cause permanent damage.
[Just wait, you will soon see that I know what I'm doing. It's even in the book as a safe advancement formula for baby Elites.]
Karl examined the potions that she had made, and while they did have some Commander Rank ingredients, they were in minimal doses, and heavily watered down. The potions could be considered Awakened Rank, at least after they were mixed with the ice to make a smoothie, so they should be safe enough.
[Potion of Advancement] was what the System called them all, though Karl knew they had been tailored to each individual student. Fortunately for everyone, Remi had labelled all of the potions before she mixed them into smoothies, so there was no confusion as the began to pass them out to the students.
Much to the dismay of the rest of the trainees, and the suspicion of the recipients. They hadn't forgotten what the cleansing drinks had done to their insides.
"What is with this unfair training bias? We get extra work on our combat skills and mental fortitude, and they get smoothies." One of the Rangers complained.
Karl shrugged. "If it helps, I gave the Cerros and the Moor Cats a special treat."
The all looked to where one of the cats was happily nibbling at a bowl of Commander Rank meat, and the beast covered it protectively.
"That does not make it better at all." Pat, the Ranger bonded with the cat in question, remarked.
Karl could have sworn that the cat laughed at him as it resumed eating. The humans had gotten a pretty decent lunch, specifically chosen by the Clerics with the help of the apartment kitchen to include some higher rank ingredients to spike their energy in what Lotus assured them was a safe way.
But the cat got an entire bowl full of the good stuff. No filler, no nonsense. Just meat.
Remi did have mercy on the Rangers, and Nikki The Tiger Monk, and she passed them out similar smoothies as well. But that was part of the plan to distract the other five from their suspicions about being suddenly given treats.
They had already gotten a fancy lunch, and now a fruity drink that wasn't served with the meal? That was suspicious. But when everyone had one, it was less likely to be some sort of nefarious plot. Or so they assumed until the potions started to take effect.
{The system is showing me something weird.} Appeared in Karl's vision, thoroughly confusing him until he realized that there was a name tag before the words, indicating that it was sent by Sybil.
How had she done that?
Karl searched for the option, then focused on the words and realized there was a function button beside them with no label that he had simply hidden as useless.
"What do you see, Sybil?" He asked out loud.
The Rogue's eyes lit up in excitement. Someone had seen her message!
She had tried to use the mind talk thing that Karl and Lady Rae used to make their plans, and it worked. Well, mostly. It was supposed to go to Rae, but Karl got it instead.
