Going from radio silence to explosive popularity was something they all eventually decided on.
They figured they only got lucky with getting their first client.
And they really just did, for only the desperate would allow a guild with nothing to show for to do something as difficult as to rescue people.
But they cannot rely on luck and strays if they plan to get closer to their goals without sounding like a cult or deluded quack doctors.
And what better way to do that than by focusing on something that wasn’t too out there while gaining a reputation?
Obviously, nothing about it screamed normal, but saying you could rehabilitate beasts was far easier than convincing humans that you could cure them without showing all your cards.
For how many people would willingly put their blind faith in young men with nearly zero credibility?
Especially when none of them would be willing to explain what was up.
But what more when they actually succeed with curing people?
Pandemonium.
What lengths would people be willing to go to upon realizing that not everyone could be cured right away?
They only had five containment cubes, and after realizing how beneficial it was, Luca had tried looking for ways to make them, but so far, nothing.
D-29 thinks that just like the other Dungeon amenities, they might have a better answer after upgrading to level 4.
It sounded pretty easy until the resident penny pincher almost fainted from the requirements.
10 million CP.
Ten million when they couldn’t even find the funds they desperately needed for their barn and the respective animals?!
So, they thought of the purification cannon which could be a good thing to use.
But not only would they be unable to afford the energy crystal cost but they also won’t be able to fully solve those whose cases were similar to the Duke’s unless one was willing to take a cannon to the mouth.
Then there were the pills.
Now those sounded promising until Xavier heard how it was made and decided that it’s not happening, not unless they find other ways to create that without having to rely solely on Luca’s spiritual energy.
That surprised the little guide who thought they’d actually go that route, but everyone agreed, and honestly were just more surprised at how Luca’s spiritual energy was the main ingredient for it.
"The low-grade pills, I can actually make them when I’m overcharged."
It was an embarrassing fact and something that would surprise even the most pampered guide, but Luca was capable of reaching this point because Xavier was generous with him.
And also because he’s in such an energy-dense space that he’d unconsciously overcharge.
"I think it does help in keeping my energy levels stable. It’s just the other grades that would take a bit of effort to make in large quantities."
"I get overcharged sometimes and make a few pills here and there when you’re not here..." trailed the shy guide.
Xavier did not expect that answer and almost wanted to ask for details until he saw the little mop’s face and figured he’d just ask when they were alone.
Luca nodded obediently, and the Prince had the urge to pat his head if not for the alarm that warned them about their appointment. freewebnøvel.com
