The scent of soup filled everyone's noses, making Alec feel hungry even though he despised Lathel.

"Smells great!" Lilith spoke up, her face filled with excitement like a child seeing candy: "Lathel... quickly, give me a plate of soup."

Lathel: "…"

"Lilith, I don't know if this cauldron of soup has any uses or any harmful effects. In general, if you eat it, I will not be responsible."

"No problem!" Lilith said arrogantly: "I am a high-level Pharmacist Enchanter, a little poison cannot harm me."

"But…" Lathel was about to say something more, but Lilith interrupted.

"Alright! Don't talk too much!" She approached the cauldron, took out a large spoon from her space bag, scooped up a spoonful of soup and began to enjoy it.

As the soup entered her mouth, Lilith opened her eyes wide, her hands loosened, causing the spoon to fall on the ground.

Lathel frowned upon seeing that: 'Not good! Is the soup really inedible? Is the poison still there or is it because I can't turn the herbs into soup?'

Lafien also frowned, feeling a bit worried. Alec who was standing far away laughed: "Hahaha... like I said, how can herbs be made into soup?"

"Lathel, the Fifth Elder was poisoned because of your soup, you must…"

Before Alec's words could finish, Lilith screamed loudly.

"AAA!! So delicious!"

Lathel: "…"

Alec: "…"

'Sister! Next time, don't make such an expression, okay? I have a heart condition, my heart can't take it.' Lathel thought to himself.

Lilith's eyes shone as she stared at the cauldron of soup: "Even though it's not in pill form, after being processed into soup, the medicinal substances inside the herb do not disappear."

"On the contrary, they are perfectly combined. The most important thing is that the poison inside the poisonous moon flower can be combined with other medicinal substances."

"This cauldron of soup is both healing and delicious. And the most special thing is... a cauldron of soup like this is enough for 10 - 15 people."

"The same amount of ingredients, but if prepared into pill form, it can only be enough for 3 people. But if you make a pot of soup, it's enough for 10-15 people."

"Lathel…" Lilith's eyes shone like two stars as she looked towards Lathel, smiling excitedly: "You have created a miracle!"

Lathel was startled, he shook his head and said: "It's just luck. I don't know how to prepare medicinal herbs, so I just wanted to cook a cauldron of delicious soup."

"Instead of saying I created miracles, it would be more accurate to say I was lucky."

"Don't be modest, I know your potential won't stop here." Lilith said as she picked up Charlotte and placed her in his arms: "I'll give her back to you, but..."

She used her index finger to lightly touch the tip of his nose: "You are not allowed to ignore me, understand?"

Lathel sighed: "I know, but I won't allow you to threaten me with Charlotte and Lafien. If there is a next time…"

Suddenly, he frowned, his eyes filled with threat and determination: "I will not let you go."

Lilith was stunned when she saw that, but right after that, she suddenly pursed her lips, and her tears started flowing out like rain.

Lathel: "…"

"You… you yelled at me."

"Ack! This… I just…"

"You promised you wouldn't yell at me again." Lilith cried so much that even Alec and Radius felt heartbroken.

"I… okay, okay. I won't yell at you anymore, okay?"

"Huh!" Lilith pouted, her tears immediately stopped: "If you yell at me again, I will punish you."

"Alright! I won't yell at you anymore, but I also don't expect you to bring out my friend to threaten me." Lathel did not give up and spoke firmly.

"Good! If I bring your friend out to threaten you, I will be punished by you."

Lathel: "…"

He felt that the word 'punishment' in Lilith's mouth was a bit wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong.

"Enough!" Alec shouted, his face extremely fierce. In fact, he also felt extremely uncomfortable, extremely angry, and unfair...

He was the main character, he himself realized that. But Lilith from the beginning to end only paid attention to Lathel and did not pay any attention to him.

Even though he finished faster than Lathel, even though he created products that were definitely more advanced than Lathel's, Lilith didn't look at him at all.

She even considered him a nuisance, making him feel extremely uncomfortable, angry, and unfair...

Ack! Although he had said this previously he is now saying it a second time to describe his current expression.

"Fifth Elder, you favor him alot, I don't believe that nonsense soup is better than the pill I just refined."

Lilith glanced at Alec, then picked up the spoon from the ground, used magic to clean it, scooped up a spoonful of soup, and held it out to Alec.

"Try it, if I was wrong, I will apologize to you here and compensate you accordingly."

"If you are wrong, then you must accept all the conditions Lathel said."

"Good!" Alec was not afraid at all, he angrily walked up to Lilith, and took the spoon in her hand.

Looking at the soup in the spoon, Alec suddenly felt a little uneasy. He frowned and said: "Wait! If I drink this nonsense soup and get poisoned, who will be responsible?

Lathel felt a headache, he realized that Alec was the type of protagonist who was so petty that it made him feel uncomfortable and angry.

Without waiting for Lathel to speak, Lilith and Lafien immediately replied: "I will take responsibility."

Lilith and Lafien were startled, they looked at each other, sparks seemingly shooting out of their eyes.

"You should worry about yourself first." Lilith said contemptuously.

"Ah! What the hell happened to the person who used Lathel's friend to threaten him?" Even though Lafien was imprisoned by Lilith's magic, she was not afraid at all.

"Huh! How can you understand why I did this? After all, you are just a stupid girl." Lilith crossed her arms, her expression extremely arrogant.

"You should release me from this confinement and I will fight you."

"Do you think I'm as stupid as you?"

"AAA!! Lilith! I will kill you!"

"Hahaha… by the time you kill me, I'm afraid Lathel and I will have two children, a boy and a girl."

"Huh! Then I will give birth to 5 children."

"You… Why will you give birth to so many children?"

"I don't care, you…"

"Enough!" Lathel shouted, his face red, as he felt embarrassed for Lilith and Lafien.

He felt that this topic was going further and further, becoming more and more ridiculous.

"Can you guys be quiet for a bit?"

Hearing that, Lafien and Lilith pouted and bowed their heads, but they did not dare to refute him.

"Lilith! You should get to the point, if you continue talking nonsense, I'll take everyone and leave, then you and Alec can do whatever you want."

"Ah! Don't..." Lilith raised her head and looked at Lathel with a pitiful face.

But he did not show any emotions, he said seriously: "Then get to the point."

"Okay, can you stop yelling at me?"

"If you're serious, I won't yell at you anymore."

Lilith pouted and said to Alec: "After all, I am his teacher, of course I am the one that will take responsibility."

Alec frowned and silently said to his teacher: "Teacher, do you think there is poison in this soup?"

"There isn't! It's completely safe. But…"

"Teacher, just say it, I'm sure this soup is not normal. How can someone use herbs to make soup? Surely the Fifth Elder favored Lathel."

"No, I think… you lost, Alec."

"Heh?! Teacher, what the hell are you talking about? Why did I lose?"

"Try to taste that spoonful of soup first, then I will tell you."

"Good!" Alec nodded, and drank all the soup on the spoon.

Then, the taste of the soup exploded like a bomb inside his mouth. The sweet taste, carried a bit of herbal flavor that stimulated his taste buds and brain.

Alec now seemed to be immersed in the flavor of the soup, in his mind he swam in the soup, and bathe in it.

As the soup entered his stomach it immediately radiated a warm energy source, that energy quickly moved throughout his body, making him feel extremely comfortable.

It seemed that some of the poison in his body was also dissolved by that energy, and completely disappeared.

He slowly bowed his head, and looked at the soup spoon in his hand, as he could hardly able believe what had just happened.

"Do you understand?" Alec's teacher said, his voice also filled with resignation.

"That girl is right, Lathel's soup is better than the medicine you just made. Alec, we lost."

"Teacher, what the hell are you talking about?" Alec still did not accept the truth, he tried to argue: "Why did I lose? I haven't lost yet."

"Alec, sometimes… we have to accept the truth." His teacher spoke up: "In terms of quality, even though Lathel's soup is in liquid form, its quality is perfect. The medicinal substances inside are perfectly combined with each other, without any excess medicinal substances."

"In terms of quantity… with the same amount of ingredients, you could only refine 3 pills. But he can cook a pot of soup, that pot of soup is enough for 10-15 people to use."

"Besides… this dish is very delicious, its taste… you can also feel it."

"In every aspect, he…overwhelmingly defeated you."

As Alec heard his teacher speak, he clenched his teeth, and angrily broke the wooden spoon in his hand.

His hands were clenched so tightly that they turned white, and he was so angry that his whole body was shaking.

"Alec, this failure is not humiliating. There are only a few people here, and besides, Lathel also said that no matter what the results are, they can't spread the word."

"It means you haven't lost anything, you're still Lilith's student. Taking a step back is not a failure, it's a way to get better."

"Listen to me… accepting defeat this time will only benefit you, not harm you."

His teacher said a lot, but at this moment, Alec's anger seemed to have taken over his mind.

But… after a while, Alec finally sighed, he said: "I lost…"

Hearing that, Lilith smiled: "Good! So this time, I declare, the winner to be Lathel."

She glanced at Lathel, winked and said: "You will also receive a reward."

Lathel shivered at Lilith's wink, he felt that the reward she spoke of was definitely not something good.

Lilith threw a small flask to Lathel and said: "It's like a space bag, but used to store liquids, prolonging their use."

Lathel nodded: "Thank you, Lilith."

Lilith also smiled and said: "Is there a need for thanks between you and me? Okay, you and Alec go to the 3rd floor to complete the procedures to become my students, I will wait for you on the 30th floor."

After she finished speaking, she left. Alec also spoke at this time: "Lathel, this time you won, but next time, I will definitely win."

Lathel shrugged: "Hopefully there won't be a next time."
