Farewell

"Oh, what is it?" Ning asked as he walked forward toward the old woman. 

She put the final few drops of some liquid and shook it violently. 

"Here," she handed it to him. 

Ning looked at the slightly golden liquid and asked, "What is it?" 

"Drink it," the old woman said.

Ning opened the stopper and downed the vial in one go. As it reached his body, he felt a warm sensation pass through his body. Suddenly, he felt like he wasn't hungry anymore.

"I feel satiated," Ning said.

"Right? With this potion, you will get all the necessary nutrients for your daily life, and it will also numb your stomach so that you don't feel hungry," she said.

"That's not bad," Ning said.

"I know, I have so many more ideas to go through. So many more potions to make," she said.

Ning smiled. "I'm leaving now," he said suddenly.

The old woman stopped. "What?" she asked.

"I'm leaving. Now," Ning said.
