Under the enthusiastic gaze of the waiter, Kaede Sato quickly swiped his card and paid 50 million Union coins. He then received the potion that could open the door to a whole new world for ordinary people.
After Kaede Sato received the Catalytic Potion, he did not choose to stay in the room anymore. He quickly left the room and left the top floor of the cruise ship with the help of the waiter who had led him here.
After that, Kaede Sato, who was on the deck, did not wait for the cruise ship to return to the port of Red Lotus Town. He immediately released the Crosshead Bat and let it fly him back to Red Lotus Town.
In fact, the cruise ship stopped a few nautical miles after leaving the port of Red Lotus Town. Therefore, with the help of the Crosshead Bat, Kaede Sato quickly returned to Red Lotus Town.
The first thing Kaede Sato did when he returned to Red Lotus Town was not to quickly find a safe place to consume the Catalytic Potion. Instead, he inquired about the location of the best clothing store in Red Lotus Town.
He had already received the news through the mission communicator. Rocket would gather all the contestants who had passed the first stage of the newcomers' tournament by the afternoon of the day after tomorrow.
Therefore, Kaede Sato had to hurry up and find a good tailor. He had to ask the tailor to make three sets of satisfactory clothing with the special fabric he had just spent a lot of money on.
This matter did not take long. After paying one million Union coins for the production fee, Kaede Sato quickly came out of a high-end clothing store in the city center of Red Lotus Town. The owner of the store promised to deliver the goods in the morning of the day after tomorrow.
After Kaede Sato finalized the matter of the clothes, he went to a high-class hotel in the city center and booked a room there for two days.
Although the system had verified that the Catalytic Potion did not have any side effects, Kaede Sato still let the Swamp Monster and the Crosshead Bat stay in the room for safety reasons. He then took out the Catalytic Potion from his space bag and drank it.
The translucent Catalytic Potion tasted like plain water. There was no taste at all.
Ten seconds passed. One minute passed. Ten minutes passed. However, the Catalytic Potion seemed to take effect very slowly. Kaede Sato did not feel anything at all.
"It can't really be plain water, right? Even if it failed, there should be some reaction. It's been eleven minutes, why isn't there any reaction at all?"
Kaede Sato thought to himself as he looked suspiciously at the empty glass bottle in his hand.
When he first drank the potion, he was quite excited and nervous.... but after a long time had passed, he still did not see any reaction. If he had not tested the potion again, he would have thought that he had just drunk a fake potion.
After another ten minutes, Kazuto Sato saw that there was no abnormal reaction in his body. He suddenly smiled bitterly in his heart. He guessed that he was just unlucky to have encountered the failure rate of the potion.
Half an hour had passed since he drank the Catalytic Potion. If he had succeeded, the Catalytic Potion should have worked by now. Since there was no reaction from the beginning to the end, the result should have been a failure.
"Maybe the 'no side effects' mentioned in the information means that there are no side effects at all. Sigh ~, it's just 50 million Alliance dollars going down the drain. If it fails, then so be it. But why do I feel a little heartache? How disappointing. I was looking forward to it."
After such a long time, there was no reaction at all. Kaede Sato knew that he had failed. He could not help but feel very depressed. After a sigh, he stood up from the chair.
However, as soon as Kaede Sato stood up, he suddenly found that the scene in front of him began to distort strangely. Then, a heart-wrenching pain exploded in his mind.
However, Kaede Sato's willpower was still amazing. He did not cry out, nor did he fall to the ground because of the intense pain. He placed his hands on the table and clenched his teeth to hold on.
For a moment, Kaede Sato's whole face was distorted by the pain. It became very ferocious. His eyes were frighteningly bright, and a dim blue light appeared in his eyes.
At the same time, his heart began to beat faster. Kaede Sato felt like he had run a few kilometers with all his strength. His whole heart was so uncomfortable that it felt like it was going to explode.
After a while, Kaede Sato's face was flushed red. He was sweating profusely, and his whole body was soaked.
Time passed by. In the end, Kaede Sato did not know how long he had endured the terrible pain. He only knew that he was very tired and could collapse at any time.
Suddenly, darkness came. Kaede Sato's consciousness quickly faded, and then his whole body collapsed on the wet ground.
When Kaede Sato regained consciousness, he found himself lying on a soft bed. It was already bright outside, and the sunlight stubbornly shone through the white gauze curtains into the room.
"Kamal ~"
"Rawr ~"
Seeing that Kaede Sato had woken up, the Giant Swamp Monster and the Cross Symbol Bat that had been guarding the bed immediately cried out in surprise. They hurriedly rushed forward and looked nervously at their trainer who had suddenly collapsed to the ground yesterday.
"It's already eight o 'clock in the morning. It seems that I couldn't endure it in the end. I fainted because of the pain. In the end, it was the Swamp Monster and the others who put me on the bed."
Kaede Sato turned his head with difficulty and looked at the time of the ancient alarm clock hanging in the room. He immediately knew what happened after last night.
"Thank you for your hard work last night. Don't worry, I'm fine."
Then, Kaede Sato touched the Swamp Monster and the Crossbow-Bat in front of him with some difficulty and comforted them with a hoarse voice.
As soon as he spoke, he suddenly felt that his throat was very dry, and a strong cough suddenly appeared.
With the help of the Swamp Monster, Kaede Sato felt weak all over and got out of bed. He struggled to pick up a glass on the table and then went to the water dispenser.
After drinking eight glasses of water in a row, Kaede Sato felt that his throat was wet again. At the same time, he felt that he was alive again, and his bodily functions began to gradually recover under the nourishment of the water.
"Have I succeeded or have I failed? It doesn't seem to have changed. "
In the bathroom, Kaede Sato was naked and let the huge showerhead shower him with hot water. He used his hand to wipe off the water vapor on the mirror in front of him and then stared blankly at himself in the mirror.
After his body had recovered a little, Kaede Sato began to carefully examine the changes in his body. He knew that he must have been drugged by the 20% success rate of the Awakening Potion last night. Now, he was already a superhuman.
However, until he couldn't stand the stench on his body and went into the bathroom to take a shower, he didn't notice any obvious changes in himself.
Yes, Kaede Sato felt that his spirit was much better than before, and that his eyes were much brighter than before. So far, he didn't notice any signs of him becoming an esper.
He couldn't even bend the spoon to prove that he was an esper. If it wasn't for the dim blue telekinetic glow on the spoon, Kaede Sato would have doubted if he had really awakened as an esper.
Kaede Sato stared at the super-small spoon in his hand. His eyes were bloodshot and he was about to become cross-eyed, but there was still no movement from the spoon in his hand.
"Maybe my talent is too weak. Forget it, I'll find a chance to ask Mia. This kind of thing needs to be verified by an expert."
Looking at the awkward situation, Kaede Sato could not help but give up. His heart was filled with resentment toward the super-small spoon in his hand.
Although he had already expected this to happen, when he was faced with it, he still held on to the hope that he would awaken as an esper with outstanding talent.
However, the cruel reality told him that he was not a protagonist like Na Zi who was loved by the world. He was just an ordinary person who relied on external forces to awaken his superpower.
