Recorded In The Kingdom’s Annals Of History

“Father, Sisters, I’m fine, and I’m not being bullied! The thing is, the Winter Nation attacked the academy.”

Rose Weiser told them everything that had happened at the Royal Academy, but she hid the fact that Watson gave her an offer.

She had already thought about rejecting Watson. If her family knew that Watson had tried to rope her in, they might, for the sake of Watson’s fame, make her give up her original dream and join Watson instead.

“It turns out that the people who bullied you are not from the Royal Academy but the Winter Nation. They are really bold. They had clearly forfeited the qualification to participate in the final competition, but they secretly returned to the academy to cause destruction. Fortunately, the kingdom’s strongest genius was there.”

Robin heaved a sigh of relief and stroked his beard.

Rose’s second sister, Stella, came to her side and wrapped her arms around Rose’s shoulders. “Rose, is the kingdom’s strongest genius handsome? After he saved you, did you have any reaction to him?”

“Watson is a very handsome young man. I thanked him properly after he saved me.”

“Really, Rose, you know that is not what I meant. What I want to know is what you, as a woman, think of Watson! There are many scenes in fairy tales where a hero saves a damsel in distress. Did you and Watson take the opportunity to—” Stella had long hair that covered half of her face. As she spoke, the corners of her mouth curled upward slightly, revealing a somewhat amused expression.

“You’re so annoying, Sister Stella.”

Rose blushed and broke away from her sister’s embrace. “A genius like Watson would never have anything to do with me. You’d better stop talking nonsense, or I’ll ignore you. I’m going to take a shower first.”

Rose turned around and disappeared from the sight of her family members. That made Stella shrug her shoulders helplessly. “It’s just a joke. Rose is still so shy. Even if she can’t have anything to do with Watson, it’s still good to have a meal with a genius and get close to him.”

“Forget it, Stella. It’s not like you don’t know our sister’s personality; she is shy. Sometimes, I worry that she won’t be able to find a husband if she continues like that.” The eldest sister, Priscilla, tried to smooth things over. “Let’s continue working. Recently, due to the scarcity of medicinal herbs, the amount of medicine produced has been decreasing. This year, our income from medicine is less than half of what it was in the past few years! At this rate, we must choose to either cut down on expenses or change careers.”

“The potion-making trade is not doing well. It has been like that for quite a while. If it really doesn’t work out, we can close half of our stores in the royal city. How about that? After all, because of His Majesty’s policy, the number of geniuses entering the Royal Academy this year is ten times that of the past. Those geniuses will definitely need potions during their fights. At the same time, the Holy Dragon Kingdom and the Winter Nation might also go to war. When the two kingdoms fight, the supply of potions in the army will also mean a large sum of money for us. I think that as long as we can hold on until then, we still have a chance for revival.”

“We don’t know when the war between the Holy Dragon Kingdom and the Winter Nation will start. After all, the Holy Dragon Kingdom is protected by Sword Saint Reid, and now there are many geniuses led by Watson. Under such circumstances, will the Winter Nation really dare to invade us?”

“Perhaps we should look forward to Rose’s breakthrough in potions. After all, even though she is not good at socializing, her talent in potions is higher than ours! If Rose has a breakthrough in potion-making, she might be able to change the current situation of a sluggish potion-making market.”

The three women and Robin were chatting with each other. Their expressions were somewhat melancholic. Recently, their production was not too ideal, and they were almost at the bottom. They did not tell Rose about those things to protect her from the truth. Instead, they supported Rose in studying at the Royal Academy.

However, if the family did not make any changes, they might not even be able to afford the tuition fees for Rose to study at the Royal Academy.

“The reason why the market for potions in the kingdom has shrunk so much is not only because the potions themselves cannot remove impurities 100%, but also because of the recent appearance of a large number of platinum-tier weapons in the kingdom!”

Robin sighed. “You all heard that His Majesty recently discovered a breakthrough in the research and development of platinum-tier weapons, leading to the mass production of platinum-tier weapons. Those known as platinum-tier weapon wielders in the Royal Academy’s tournament are the best example. Now, as long as you spend 10,000 gold coins to buy a platinum-tier weapon, you can get platinum-tier power. Who would spend money to buy potions that have poor and terrible effects?”

That was the core industrial chain of a kingdom. When an industry had a breakthrough, the other industries would either develop or be suppressed.

Like potions and weapons, the essence of both industries was to increase the cultivator’s strength, and the improvement that a 10,000-gold-coin platinum-tier weapon could bring was not something that even a 100,000-gold-coin platinum-tier potion could do. Under such circumstances, no one would buy potions.

“Speaking of potions, look, there seems to be something on the ground?”

Just as Robin and the others were feeling troubled, Rose’s third sister glanced at the ground. A black-and-white bead had appeared where Rose had been standing.

“What is that? It looks like some kind of gem. Is it one of yours?” Stella asked.

Everyone shook their heads and said, “No.” Robin touched his chin. “Obviously, that doesn’t belong to the family. Judging from the position, Rose must have dropped it. Is it one of her latest potions? But it’s the first time I’ve seen a solid potion as shiny and beautiful as a gemstone.”

“It’s possible. As for whether it’s a potion, we’d know after we’ve tasted it.”

Stella wiped the surface of the bead and put it in her mouth. Her throat moved, and she subconsciously swallowed her saliva. She felt like the black-and-white bead seemed to contain some magic power. She wanted to eat it in one gulp.

The eldest sister, Priscilla, frowned. “Wait a minute, Stella, why are you so reckless? I haven’t confirmed if that is a potion yet. What if that is a gem that Rose bought from a jewelry store? Even if that is really a potion, if it contains a lethal poison, won’t your life be in danger if you swallow it?”

“Sister Priscilla, you’re overthinking. It can’t be a gem. If a jewelry store sells gems of that color, won’t they suffer a great loss? Besides, even if that thing is poisonous, Rose will definitely be able to cure me. Besides, as a gold-tier potion-maker, what kind of poison can kill me instantly?”

Waving her hand to signal Priscilla not to worry, Stella put the bead to her lips and stuck out her tongue. “Perhaps this bead is a new type of potion that Rose made from the knowledge she learned at the Royal Academy! I’ll just lick it. It’s no big deal. I’ll just treat it as a test of Rose’s achievements in school.”

As she spoke, Stella could not help but touch the black-and-white bead with her tongue. The bead had an irresistible attraction. Everything she said to her family members was an excuse. She could not resist the seductive fluctuations from the bead as if she was possessed.

Whoosh!

As Stella’s tongue collided with the black-and-white bead, it instantly disappeared, turning into a ray of black-and-white light that entwined and entered her body through her throat.

Stella clutched her neck with both hands and began to cough violently. A hazy white light appeared on her body, and white feathers emerged from the surface of her body, tearing the clothes that covered her body.

“What’s going on?”

That shocking scene shocked everyone. Robin, who was the first to react, quickly approached his daughter and reached out his thick palm to pat her back. “Quick, Stella, spit that thing out.”

Unfortunately, it was too late. Stella did not vomit. Instead, Robin’s hand was pushed back by an unknown force. He took a few steps backward and stared at his charred palm in disbelief. The tender flesh of his palm felt as if it had been burned by lightning.

“D*mn it, Stella, I told you not to eat it! It’s fine. Go and get Rose,” Priscilla shouted anxiously.

Just as everyone looked confused and did not know what to do, Stella, who was in pain, suddenly let go of her hand that was holding her neck. She spread her arms, and the feathers on her body turned into faint light spots. Six enormous wings stretched from her back, followed by a floating glowing circle above her head.

A holy chant appeared in the air. Stella’s hair was suddenly dyed platinum, and even her eyes and eyelashes were the same color.

Slowly, she opened her eyes and stared curiously at her family around her.

“What’s wrong with you?”

“Stella, why are you asking us? Tell us what’s wrong with you. Do you feel unwell?”

“I don’t feel unwell. It’s more like I’m very comfortable now. It’s as if I’m floating in the clouds. Furthermore, my body seems to contain an endless amount of power.”

Stella raised her right hand, and the hot light formed a dazzling feather coat on the surface of her body. Then, she clenched her fist, and with a bang, the ground immediately exploded, revealing a deep pit that was several meters deep. Robin and the others were so frightened that they hurriedly retreated.

“I feel like if I punch now, I can blow up a small mountain. My current strength should be at the peak of gold-tier. No, it seems to be even higher! Is that the potion developed by Rose? It’s so amazing!”

Feeling the power of her own strength, Stella noticed the six wings on her back and the halo above her head. “Wait, what are these wings and the bulge above my head? Is it a tumor? Did the potion change me? Father, look at me. What have I become?”

As a potion-maker, Stella knew that some potions could turn people into non-human creatures to increase their strength. However, non-human creatures were usually hideous. That made Stella terrified. All women loved beauty. If she became ugly because of an increase in her strength, she would rather not have that strength.

When she asked in fear, Robin and the others looked at each other with strange expressions.

In the end, it was Priscilla who said, “Stella, don’t panic. You’re not ugly! Do you know what you look like now? You’re like a race that exists in ancient legends—an angel. “

….

Rose Weiser soaked in the bath and let out a long sigh of relief.

“As expected, a hot bath is the most enjoyable thing in life, especially after being frightened. It’s so comfortable to soak in a hot bath!”

Lowering her head, Rose looked at the shallow scars on her skin. Recalling the injuries she had suffered during the day at the Royal Academy, her nerves tensed once again. “Fortunately, I have Watson’s help. Otherwise, these wounds would have become even deeper, and it would be impossible to remove them with potions! I can remove them with some of my gold-tier potions.”

Rose thought of Watson’s invitation to her. At that time, Watson had a handsome smile on his face. That made her feel embarrassed; she buried her head in the water and blew bubbles under the water.

“Watson saved me, but I still rejected his request. Now that I think about it, my brain must have been damaged at that time! The potion-making industry in the kingdom is already in a terrible state. My family had to bear a lot of responsibility to send me to school. If I borrowed Watson’s fame, I could make the trade flourish again. But I only thought about my own dreams. I am really too selfish.”

Her family had to scrimp and save to send her to school. They had used up a few assets. After all, the tuition fees at the Royal Academy were costly. Even though her family did not say it, she was not a fool and had already noticed it.

If abandoning her dream could make her family live a better life, it might not be a bad choice.

“I wonder if it’s too late for me to change my mind now? Watson said that if I changed my mind, I could go to him at any time. Oh, right! He also gave me a strange bead and asked me to study it. I’ll take a look and see what that bead is.”

Rose climbed out of the bath and picked up the tattered uniform that was covered in blood and dust. That uniform was also very expensive. It had cost 1,000 gold coins each, so she did not throw them away. Instead, she planned to wash the clothes and mend them.

However, when she picked up the uniform, she realized that the bead was not there.

“Where is it?”

After shaking the clothes, Rose fumbled in the bath for a long time.

“Still can’t find it!”

“Did I drop the bead when I arrived home?”

Recalling everything that had happened after she returned to her family, a bright light flashed in Rose’s mind. The bead might have fallen out of her trouser pocket because of a gap in her uniform.

“I have to find that bead. If Watson knew that I lost it, he would definitely not agree to my request.”

With that thought in mind, Rose put on her uniform and prepared to go outside to take a look. Just then, she heard the voice of her elder sister, Priscilla, from outside. “Something bad has happened, Rose. Things have gotten out of hand because of you. Come out and take a look.”

What happened?

Rose’s heart skipped a beat. She had just returned home and had not done anything. What happened? All she could think of was that lost bead. 

Just as she was speculating, she suddenly heard Priscilla’s voice from outside. “We found a black-and-white bead, and Stella ate it.”

It was just as she had expected.

Rose’s vision went dark. She felt as if she had been struck by lightning and almost fell on the slippery floor. Watson had given that bead to her. She did not even know what it was for. How could Stella have eaten it? It was too reckless.

Before she could react, the bathroom door opened. Her eldest sister, Priscilla, rushed into the room. When she came in front of her, she grabbed her shoulder and shook it. “Rose, did you make that black-and-white bead?”

“No, it wasn’t me. It was someone else. I’m sorry, Sister. It’s my fault. It’s all my fault for not looking after that thing.”

She was worried that something had happened to Stella. Rose began to speak incoherently, tears welling in the corners of her eyes.

If that unknown bead had put her sister in danger, she would never forgive herself.

“Rose, what are you doing? Why are you apologizing to me?”

Glancing at Rose in confusion, Priscilla smiled. “It doesn’t matter, Rose. Even if you worked with others to create such a potion, you’re really amazing. You’re the pride of our family.”

Huh?

Rose’s mouth was wide open. She thought that something had happened to Stella after she swallowed the bead, so Priscilla came in to question her. However, it did not seem to be the case.

Just as she was puzzled, Robin rushed in with an uncontrollable smile on his face and gave her a thumbs up. “Rose, your sister is only half-right. To be able to develop such a potion, you’re not only the pride of the Abedor family, but you’re the pride of the kingdom. They can record this moment in the kingdom’s annals of history.”

The kingdom’s annals of history? Was it that big of a deal?

What was that bead for? Why were her father and sister so excited? Rose was at a loss. At that moment, she saw her second sister, Stella, walk into the bathroom.

It was difficult to describe Stella’s posture. Her long platinum hair fluttered in the wind. Six enormous wings flapped, allowing Stella to float in the air easily. Some feather-like spots of light were scattered in the air, making her look holy.

Stella looked at Rose, her eyes shining so brightly that Rose did not dare to look directly at her.

“Rose, I don’t know how to thank you. Your potion allowed me to evolve from a human into an angel, and it also allowed me to obtain platinum-tier strength! You should have told us about this earlier; there’s no need to hide this from us?”

Platinum-tier strength?

Angel?

Rose Weiser’s face twitched when she heard that, and her consciousness began to blur. So the bead that Watson gave her was such a powerful thing, and she had treated it as an inconspicuous thing, completely ignoring it. It was too stupid, but a potion that could turn a person into an angel? Did such a powerful thing really exist?

‘So it’s a potion that can turn a person into an angel, and I lost it.’

People would temporarily give up thinking when they were enduring things that they could not understand. That was how Rose Weiser was in at that moment. After muttering for a short while, her eyes rolled, and she fell to the ground..
