After grumbling a bit at Eulalia, Arabel cald down and decided to hide from the gazes of the master and his disciple. She finally understood why they were watching them so closely.
She would also have looked at the couple with bewildernt if, instead of being on duty, they had left in order, as Eulalia put it, to satisfy their "natural instincts."
Eulalia followed her into the tent to find out the details of their absence. Not what she imagined, but the real reason for their absence.
Realizing that it would soon be duty ti for Alois and his disciple, Idan returned to his tent, where Nemo followed him.
"What happened?" asked Nemo, speaking to Idan through the ntal link they had established. Idan understood that he had to give an explanation.
"We t that woman in black that the master was chatting with at the Adventurer's Guild building," Idan replied, surprising Nemo.
Nemo rembered this woman well. She made a strong impression on him. He even suggested that maybe she was stronger than their master Milica. And he was right.
"She's a Valkyrie," Idan said, and these words, transmitted through a ntal link, gave Nemo a strange feeling. The wound that was tornting his right side suddenly began to heat up, and he unconsciously grabbed the pendant hanging from his neck with his left hand.
Idan did not notice the sudden change in Nemo's behavior and continued, "She followed us because she sensed Arabel's bloodline and invited her to talk."
At that mont, Nemo's thoughts were so confused that he couldn't hear everything. Sighing, he finally pulled himself together and began to listen attentively to Idan.
"Arabel talked to her and we resolved so issues. Besides, we made a small deal. Now we have insurance in case sothing goes wrong," Idan sumd up, recalling their eting with Sierra.
Nemo was very interested and wanted to know more details, especially about Valkyrie herself. However, Idan did not go into details, and Nemo had to step back.
At this ti, Arabel also briefly told Eulalia about what had happened, without hiding or going into details.
Eulalia was in complete shock. She couldn't even imagine that such a powerful Valkyrie had been watching them all this ti. Eulalia had already seen Arabel in this form and was in awe of her beauty and strength.
Now, having learned that a real Valkyrie was following them, Eulalia had mixed feelings. On the one hand, it scared her, but on the other, it made her want to get to know her and see her in her true form with her own eyes.
After the explanation, they both went to bed. Arabel couldn't sleep; she was waiting for Sierra to bring them her blood essence.
"The vial is at the entrance to your tent, you can take it," Arabel heard Sierra's voice in her head as she lay and thought about what had happened.
Wasting no ti, she stood up and looked outside. As Sierra said, there was indeed a small vial of red liquid at the entrance. Picking it up and looking around, Arabel found no one nearby and returned back to the tent.
She was surprised that no one paid attention to how Sierra delivered the vial of blood essence to the entrance of her tent.
Even Izzy didn't notice her, which once again confird Sierra's mastery of the art of hiding.
"Idan, Sierra fulfilled her part of the contract and brought the blood essence.", — Arabel ntally inford Idan.
Idan, who was lying with his eyes closed at that mont, opened them and was about to get up and go to Arabel, but he rembered in ti that they were in different tents. He didn't want to embarrass Arabel and create more misunderstandings between them and Alois and his disciple.
"Wonderful", Idan replied ntally, sharing Arabel's joy.
[Ding! The task "It is necessary to obtain the essence of the Dark Valkyrie's blood in any way" has been completed. The reward is a coupon for making "Blood Essence Elixir" provided by the Supre Alchemist System].
After a while, the System announced the completion of the task. Initially, the couple thought that this task would be too much for them, but thanks to an unexpected case, they coped with it very quickly and easily.
This event once again confird that in this world, things can go wrong as they expect.
Just like last ti, a small coupon appeared in front of Arabel with the inscription "Coupon for the preparation of "Blood Essence Elixir"".
"System, how do I use it?" Arabel asked, holding the coupon in her hands. Last ti, a similar coupon allowed her and Idan to open the "Trade" function in their System. Then everything happened by itself, without her intervention.
[Direct the Soul Force to the coupon, and you will find out] — the System answered Arabel's question.
Following the System's instructions, Arabel channeled her Soul Force into the coupon. As soon as her Soul Force touched the coupon, it disintegrated into particles and flew into her body.
[Ding! A new function called "Alchemy" has been opened in the System] — as Arabel suggested, a new function has appeared, but this ti it was related to "Alchemy", since the coupon was from the Supre Alchemist System.
"Here's another new function!" exclaid Arabel. This is the third function related to the next "Supre" System.
Their suspicion that after they helped Nemo ta a unique creature, the "Beast taming" function would open, which would be linked to the "Supre Beast Taming System", no longer seed so absurd.
"And what does this new function do?" asked Arabel curiously, opening the new function window.
In the window that opened, there was only one category called "Recipe", which contained the only recipe for "Blood Essence Elixir".
Arabel's expectations weren't as high this ti as they had been on previous occasions, so she wasn't too surprised.
"Let guess: to unlock other recipes, do you need to complete tasks or buy them in the "Trade" function for System points?" Arabel asked the System.
[Yes, you're a fast learner, Host!] — the System replied.
Arabel's right eye twitched after hearing the System's words.
She checked the only available recipe and cursed softly when she saw the ingredients.
## "Blood Essence Elixir (Simplified)"
To prepare this valuable elixir, you will need the following ingredients:
**Blood Essence** required to raise the bloodline level of the race – 100 ml.
** Vital alcohol** – 50 ml.
**Host's blood** – 100 ml.
**System Points** – 500 cp. (Service for cooking and for small ingredients not listed)
- The probability of success of this process is 50%. As a result, you can get 1-2 vials of Blood Essence Elixir, each 100 ml.
"Damn it, the making needs additional ingredients, my blood, and System points, and there's still a chance of success?" Arabel didn't know how to react to this.
Although being able to get two vials instead of one was a little comforting, it couldn't outweigh the other circumstances.
Arabel decided to postpone the decision until later. Despite her dissatisfaction, she understood that this "Blood Essence Elixir" would be useful not only to her, but also to Idan.
Now that she had dealt with the task, she needed to find out how much they could sell the "Legendary" rank Dark Valkyrie Blood Essence for.
To find out, Arabel opened the «Trade» window and scanned the vial on her hand. When she saw the price of the vial, she almost dropped it in surprise.
