Yuki took a deep breath to calm herself down as she pulled out her phone and looked at her own bank account. "Just under 3 million, which was made in just a few days. If I were to sell my recipe and someone takes it and improves on it, then I would end up losing my source of income. So, while 10 million is very enticing, I will not sell. By holding a monopoly over these kinds of potions, I will be able to increase my profits tenfold, which makes 10 million or even fifty million not worth my time. Luckily I am not hurting for money, or I might have screwed myself."
Yuki closed her laptop and leaned back, looking up at her ceiling. "I will make as much money as I can before things die down." With this thought in mind, Yuki stood up, fixed her panties, and walked to her bedroom to go log in.
Inside the game, Yuki logged in inside an inn where she had logged off the night before with Chi. One thing she liked about the game was when you were teamed with someone, even if you both logged off, your team never broke, so they never had to keep reinviting each other. The only communication you could do at long distances was through either a sect or guild chat, team chat, or private messaging. As for the difference between a sect or guild? Guilds were formed by small groups of people and could only have a max of 200 players at a time. As for sects, they could only be created if you owned a mountain. This information was all written in detail on the Soul Fusion Online home page. The requirements for a sect were actually insane and were something only those who worked hard at the end game could achieve. They not only required high cultivation but also many resources.
Yuki carried Nergal in her arms and petted its head as she walked to the trade skill guild to rent a room. She rented a medium quality room and went and sat in front of her storage chest to see what kinds of items she had. "I have almost 10,000 stalks of blue grass. Originally for the LQ Heavenly Health Potion, I needed 1 lavender, 1 chamomile, 1 blade of blue grass, 20 milliliters of water, a drop of blood, three slivers of bone, and a pinch of wild yam root. If I were to double the ingredients except for the water and blood as well as add in..." Yuki looked over the herbs she had harvested the past few days and spotted something that might work. "100 year old wild ginseng… If I were to grind a bit of this up and add it, I wonder if it will boost the effects. But first, I will test a few things out..."
Yuki's idea was that the potion recipe's ingredients only had to be doubled to make the effects stronger, but she also decided to concentrate the mixture so that it would condense the nutrients that made up the potion. "Now then, the concentration of herbs seems to be good so let's add in 2 milliliters of blood to thicken the solution a bit, and instead of slivers of bone, let's grind them down so they will dissolve better. 2 pinches of wild yam root and a pinch of 100 year old wild ginseng."
The pot Yuki was cooking in suddenly glowed so bright she had to close her eyes, but when she opened them again, she saw a pale pink fluid in her pot. "Did I do it wrong?" Yuki frowned but still took out a vial and filled it up.
[New Potion Discovered: Please enter a name….]
[Rarity: Rare]
[Instantly heals 100 Health and 60 Mana, then 70 health over 20 seconds and 20 Mana over 10 seconds.]
[Can be mass produced through trade skill window.]
"This..." Yuki looked at the information of her new potion, feeling a bit stunned. "You can't even buy mana potions! But here is a potion that recovers both Health and Mana!"
Yuki thought for a moment before entering a name for her new creation. "Sticking with the Heavenly line, I will name this Heavenly Rejuvenation Potion."
[LQ Heavenly Rejuvenation Potion]
[Rarity: Rare]
[Instantly heals 100 Health and 60 Mana, then 70 health over 20 seconds and 20 Mana over 10 seconds.]
"Hmm? Even though it heals more than a regular potion, the system still marks it as low quality?" Yuki's eyes lit up because this meant to her that she could make higher quality versions later on. "Now that I have made a new potion let's back step my process and see if I can still make a medium quality health potion."
After almost two hours of in game time, Yuki's lips were curled up so high they almost touched her ears.
[MQ Heavenly Health Potion]
[Rarity: Uncommon]
[Instantly heals 150 Health, then 100 health over 20 seconds.]
"Finally! It took a while and tinkering to get the quantities right, but it is finally done. Now since I have plenty of materials, let's mass produce these two potions. After which, I will head straight to the marketplace and put them on sale. Let's see… I can do 20 stacks of the rejuvenation potions and 50 stacks of the medium quality health potions. The rejuvenation potion is a rare item, so I will sell this at 500 gold minimum bid with a buyout of 15 platinum. As for the medium health potion… 10 gold minimum bid with 10 platinum buyout. Now, if I were to sell my recipe, I could not control the prices so easily. It just now falls on some idiot to buy a bunch of gold. In a way, I am making myself money twice. Once with gold and once with crowns.
" Wait… Doesn't this mean I am causing the price of silver to go up per crown? Well…. Not that I care. A bunch of big companies have been investing into the game that have millions or even billions. I am just taking my fair share. The higher the exchange value gets, the better it is for me. But just this alone will give me more money than that TradeSkiller guy was trying to give me." With happy thoughts of all the money she was going to receive, Yuki made her way over to the Marketplace.
When she opened up the marketplace window, Yuki almost choked on her own spit when she saw that she made 4 million crowns. Even her potions had all sold, raking in another 17,536 gold or 17 platinum and 536 gold. "I really do not need any items… and I plan to expand my skills to making my own armor and weapons, so I will just stick this all up for sale. As for my potions, let's put this up for sale with my new buyout prices and see where it goes..."
@GreenHat: I'm dying… I am really dying here! My eyes must be deceiving me! When did Heavenly Crafts come up with such an OP item!? Mana!? Who the fuck is able to buy mana potions! No one! They don't exist! Now here Heavenly Crafts has not only a new medium quality potion but this OP potion as well that does both! I don't even want to get into these insane buyout prices...
@WhiteLotus: GreenHat, you said you were only going to the bathroom, but now you are on the forums… Come back to bed!
@GreenHat: Damn woman! We already did it 4 times!
@FingerSandwhich: Wait! Hold on!? Are my eyes deceiving me!? You two actually met up in RL? When is the wedding!?
@GreenHat: Well, you see, WhiteLotus finally sent me some nudes, and I sent some back, and before we knew it, we were in a hotel room… Now we are at my house…
@FingerSandwhich: GreenHat, are you sure you are the one wearing the green hat or are you making others wear the green hat?
@WhiteLotus: He better not, or he will be turned into a sheboy!
@BraveSoul: +1 turned into a sheboy
@Freeloader: +1 turned into a sheboy
@FingerSandwhich: +1 turned into a sheboy
