Chapter 38- Potion

Hey minna-san.

I really wanted to write this chapter sooner but I'm down with food poisoning (still) these past 3 says. Hope I get better soon.

This chapter will be short, but the next chapter is supposed to be an R-18, probably.

----------------------

Earth POV:

"Alma? Of course, come on in."

Wu said so and opened the door. Entering the room, following that, was the figure of an old lady. Although her figure was small, only about 1.60 meters tall, as she walked she radiated confidence and charm, with her long black hair waving behind her, her black eyes that sparkled, full of life, and a big smile full of white teeth on her face.

She must have been extremely gorgeous back when she was younger.

Her face had wrinkles of laughter, making you think she is probably a very positive person. Her whole being was very comforting and welcoming to be around. As she entered, Wu closing the door behind her, she looked around the room with a curious expression on her face.

"I see, I see..."

She mumbled to herself quietly. Alma suddenly turned and glared at me, making me flinch.

"Wh-what is it?"

I asked her with a weak voice.

"You probably have terrible luck, don't you?"

My eyes opened wide with surprise. Wu also seemed to be taken aback at her words, his attention now fully on her.

"How did you know?"

Wu asked. Her attention shifted again to the room, ignoring Wu's question, her eyes kept exploring the room.

"You two seem like a perfect match. The manly, controlling and a bit perverted husband with the naive, unlucky and weak wife."

"Hey! Who are you calling a naive wife?! I am NOT his wife!"

I got angry. Her words were really 'spot on'.

"Yet."

Wu corrected my words.

"Huh?"

"You are not my wife yet."

I glared at him angrily, making him chuckle in response.

"That's enough, you love birds. I have the potion here for you, and I have no time to stay here at all. If you have any extremely bad side effects, text Maya Goldleaf for treatment."

(AN: Goldleaf is Maya's family name.)

As she said this, Alma pulled out of her spacial bad a small vial full of a silver fluid of some kind. She threw this towards Wu and left the room the moment it touched his hands, only stopping behind to tell him this:

"I think you are going to be amused by the side effect of this one. Just make sure to erect a spacial dom around the both of you, before he drinks it."

After she left I looked at Wu with worry. Her words have no positive outcome for me it seems.

This sounds very bad for me, but I can't go around drinking it.

Wu draw close to me, erecting a spacial barrier around us, as Alma told him to do.

"Are you ready?"

"No... But I have no choice, do I?"

"I promise to take good care of you, no matter what happens, ok?"

I sighed in my heart, excepting my fate, and nodded in agreement. Wu handed me the vial, the cork already open. I put it to my mouth, emptying the whole thing in it and swallowing the silver liquid quickly, before I'll lose my nerves. A minute passed, and nothing happened....three minutes...seven minutes...

"Nothing is happening..."

Wu seemed a little disappointed. He probably became intrigued at the old lady's words, and now that nothing was happening, he felt annoyed. This look on his face angered me.

"Why the heck are you disa-"

As I tried to take a step toward Wu, wanting to scold him, I felt my body grow hot and my balance was lost. I managed to keep on standing, but as I tried to move, I wobbled and couldn't walk straight.

"Earth? Are you ok? You look a bit... Um... Drunk, I guess..."

"Wha- don't talk *hick* nonsense, I'm not *hick* drunk!"

My mind was growing fuzzy and my body growing hot.

Hot...So hot... I can't... What is happening...?

"Honey, let me help you back to the bed, ok?"

Wu reached out his hand trying to grab my shoulder, but as soon as his hand touched it, a new feeling took place, one that made my knees grow weak, my cheeks grow red and my breathing to grow heavier.

"Wu... Help... My body feels weird... So hot..."

I was in total control of my body, yet not. My mind was clear, yet fuzzy. Although Wu tried to use [Cooldown] on my body, I could feel my little brother down there growing hotter and hotter, starting to rise from his slumber. My cheeks turned even redder in embarrassment and I quickly squatted down, trying to hide it between my legs.

"Earth-"

"Stay back!"

I shouted as he tried to come closer to me.

Like hell I'm gonna let him see me this way!

My lower body was growing hotter by the minute and it was becoming hard to suppress myself, almost wanting to forget everything in order to get some relief.

"I can hear that you are turned on, you know? Let me help you."

Wu's elf ears detected my situation. He didn't seem bothered by it at all or even a little bit disoriented.

"Aren't you *hick*....too calm *hick*...about this situation...?"

I managed to squeeze out my question between the heavy gasps and hiccups.

"To calm? Aren't you mistaken?"

Huh?

I lifted my head to see the shocking sight of something huge.
