I’m Not an Evil God! Novel - Chapter 36 - Experience the Potion!
James had no idea of the sensation he had caused.
However, he did not care now. After all, his original intention was to reduce the trouble that he would face in the future.
But he did not know that he would cause such a huge commotion.
Nonetheless, even if he knew, he would not care.
The most important thing now was to get Elise to quickly refine the potion. That way…
On the one hand, he could resolve the issue of the accumulated sacrifices.

On the other hand, he could quickly increase his strength.
Although they might not be able to refine those Platinum-rank potions for the time being, James believed that one day, Elise would be able to refine them.
Furthermore, it wasn’t just the Chaos Potion that could increase one’s strength. There were many other potions that could increase one’s strength as well.
James believed that by combining the sacrifices with the potions…
He would be able to reach the Platinum rank before long.
When he reached that level, he would truly be able to dominate Saint Laurent City.
With great anticipation, James returned home.
Then, he entered the cellar.
After that, he gave all the tools to Elise.
“Now that the tools are in place, Elise, do you need anything else?”
“No, Mr. James. The only problem now is what potions we can refine.”
Although they had many sacrifices on hand, they did not have a complete collection.
Furthermore, many sacrifices could not be refined.
They also lacked one or several ingredients. Thus, they could not refine all the potions.
Moreover, Elise could only refine a few potions.
In that case, they didn’t have much choice.
Elise started to choose from among the sacrifices.
“The egg of a Giant Chaos Wolf, the tentacle of an Autumn-Eared Octopus, the tooth of a Mighty Black Wolf, and the horn of a Black Armored Rhinoceros…”
Elise chose a portion of ingredients as if she was at the market.
James was relieved to see Elise familiar with this, as if she was in her own home.
This would be Elise’s home ground from now on.
James didn’t know anything about potions. Moreover, he couldn’t even recognize all the strange chaos creatures.
In this situation, he could not help at all.
Thus, he could only watch Elise perform.
However, this was a good thing. After all, ever since Elise had arrived here…
She had always felt a little guilty as she felt that she had not helped James in any way.
Even then, she had allowed James to keep her. This made her feel guilty.
Thus, she had been holding back her discomfort with the various sacrifices and had been trying to help James.
Even though James had stressed over and over again that this was not the case, and the girl’s existence itself had an extraordinary significance…
This kind of comfort had never been effective on this young girl.
James, who was not experienced in society, could not do anything about this situation. He could only leave everything to time.
Now, seeing the young girl walking among the sacrifices with a confident smile on her face…
James was genuinely happy for the young girl.
You’ve finally found your meaning, haven’t you, Elise?
Elise deftly picked out a set of ingredients from the various offerings.
After that, she returned to his original spot and began assembling the various tools with some unfamiliarity.
After all, she had never seen these things before, even though she had refined potions in the village.
However, the tools she used at that time were all made of stone, while the utensils she used now were made of glass that had been fired in a kiln.
Thankfully, these glassware were the same shape as the stoneware she had used in the past.
After all the preparations were done…
Elise began refining the potion.
This was not her first time refining this potion. Instead, she had refined it many times in the village.
Therefore, the entire process of refining the potion went very smoothly.
In his anticipation, James looked at the potion that Elise handed him.
“What potion is this?” James asked curiously.
“This is a basic Silver-rank potion, the Spiritual Energy Enhancement Potion!”
“Spiritual Energy Enhancement? How much will my spiritual energy increase by?”
“Around 5%!”
At this point, Elise seemed a little embarrassed.
“This potion is only a Silver-rank potions, so its effects are average.”
“If I have the ingredients, I can refine a Gold-rank potion, the Spiritual Energy Surge Potion!”
“That potion can increase one’s spiritual energy by 20%!”
James stroked the young girl’s head, as if he had sensed her reluctance.
“It’s alright. You’re already very impressive to be able to refine the potion!”
“Silver-rank potions are enough for me!”
“As for Gold-rank potions, let’s leave them to fate!”
After hearing his words of consolation, the young girl’s mood clearly improved.
The girl decided that she would definitely refine a Gold-rank potion. Otherwise, she would disappoint Mr. James.
Looking at the light red liquid in the small test tube, James asked curiously, “Are you supposed to drink this directly? Does it need any other preparations?”
“Yes, Mr. James, you can just drink it.”
Even though James knew it was a potion, he still felt a little uneasy.
After all, this was the first time he had seen a potion, and also the first time he was going to drink one.
Thus, his mood inevitably fluctuated.
“Let me try this legendary potion and see how it tastes!”
With that, James downed the red liquid in one gulp.
He did not feel anything when he drank the potion.
Its taste was similar to fruit juice bought on the streets.
However, he soon felt his lower abdomen begin to burn.
It was as if a spark had lit up on a grassland.
For a moment, James felt as if he was in a furnace since his whole body was on fire.
His body became extremely hot.
His body was also drenched in sweat.
He looked like he had just taken a bath.
It was only a short five minutes.
However, James felt as if he was being burned for five minutes.
“It’s really so hot!”
He wiped the sweat from his face and spoke to Elise.
“How is it, Mr. James? How does it feel to drink the potion?”
“It’s excellent!”
James simply felt that he was in an excellent condition now.
Thus, he was in high spirits.
It was as if he had just had a good sleep and was full of vitality.
Furthermore, he felt that his spiritual energy had become much stronger.
Even though the Spiritual Energy Enhancement Potion only increased his spiritual energy by 5%, to James, who had the strength of a Gold-rank expert…
This was already a significant increase.
The feeling of his strength increasing was very obvious.
“My spiritual force has increased by 5%. As expected of a Silver-grade potion!”
James was surprised to feel the changes in his body.
Although his strength had increased to the Gold rank by eating all kinds of sacrifices…
After reaching Gold rank, he could clearly feel that the improvement in his strength had slowed down.
Under normal circumstances, it would take about two weeks for his spiritual energy to increase by 5%.
However, when he used this potion, he achieved this effect in just five minutes.
Indeed, alchemists were the most valuable profession in the world!
No other professions were more valuable!
