Chereads / Reincarnated as a Ratman / Chapter 9 - Potion fun

Chapter 9 - Potion fun

After Martin came home from work he went straight to his room "All right, which one of these potions should I test first?" Martin said as he pulled out the potions he bought earlier, he then noticed a small book that Yuna gave him "Well first I should read the instruction book Yuna gave me." He said, "Oh, the potions effects are permanent, but I can reverse the effects by by thinking normal and do the opposite by thinking about the effect, neat." Martin said as he read the book.

When Martin finished the book he closed it and looked at the potions with excitement "What do you think Anris, should I?" He asked 'I don't know, it's your potion.' Anris said, Martin then grabbed the bottle with a purple liquid in it "Alright, first is the embiggening potion." Martin said as he popped of the cork, "Down the hatch we go." Martin was about to drink the potion 'Wait, shouldn't you do this outside, you don't need a broken home.' Anris said "yeah your right, I know a place to test these." Martin said as he put back on the cork.

*30 Minutes later*

Martin was walking through the forest out side the village, holding the potions and a change of cloths, he put everything down except for the embiggening potion and walked a few steps away from the items, "Alright, let's try this again" Martin said as he opened the bottle and drank the liquid, after he drank the potion he sat down waiting for the effects, suddenly his body begun to grow in size rapidly and his pants begun to rip, he grew larger then the trees and kept growing until he stopped, "Woah, didn't expect to grow this big!" Martin said as he got up, the trees only reached up to his knees and Martin surveyed the area he can see "Man, this is great!" Martin said, he then tried to reverse the change, his body then shrank until it returned to normal "Phew, now I just need new cloths and then the transformation one is next." Martin said before noticing the trees he destroyed while growing "looks like there's a new clearing thanks to me." Martin chuckled.

After he put on new pants he then picked up the potion with a green liquid "All right, from what I remember I have to think of what I turn into, should be easy." Martin said as he took the cork off the bottle and drank the potion "let's try the beast-orc version of my favorite animal." Martin said, the white of his fur started to spread and his feet begun to grow in size and grow white fur as well as his hands, his mouth begun to turn into a snout and his tail shortened and grow fur, his body then gotten a little fatter and his muscles gotten stronger and his tusk turned back into teeth, Martin then lost balance and fell.

"Wow, I turned into a polar bear!" Martin said as he examined his new body "I think I might stay like this for a bit, I feel so strong!" Martin said as he gotten up "Though if I want to stay like this, I'm going to have to get used to the extra bulk." Martin said looking at his stomach which then growled "Man, I'm starving, I should head back." Martin said, he then grabbed the potion bottles and shredded clothing and headed back.

*35 minutes later*

"Ok let's go get something to eat then I'll experiment with the transformation potions effects some more." Martin said as he looked for a place to eat, he then remembered that there is nothing to sell at the shop "I forgot, Rasuo will be making weapons for the next two days." Martin said.

*2 hours later*

Martin was wandering around in his room still as a Polar bear-orc, thinking on what he should experiment "should I try body types, it kinda counts." Martin muttered, He then thought about a body type, his stomach then shrank and his body became less fat and more skinny and his pants begun to fall off him, his muscles soon became visible, "Neat, But these pants are a bit to big,I should change back and try the opposite." Martin said as he held his over sized pants, his body then fattened back up to how it was before.

"Alright, let's move on to experiment number two." Martin said as he sat down in his chair, his stomach then grew larger and his body grew fatter, his pants then produced small tears as his body slowly stopped changing, "Man, my belly's like a huge ball of fat at this point" Martin said poking his much larger stomach "Welp, guess it's time to change back into a rat-orc." Martin said as he reversed the transformations back into a rat-orc.

"I like being a polar bear, but it feels weird barely having a tail and moving around that extra bulk." Martin muttered, he then noticed the condition of his cloths "I think I stretched my pants a bit too much." Martin said under his breath "No time to dwell on it now, there's still one more potion to drink, the shrinking one." He exclaimed, Martin then reached into his bag and pulled out a potion with blue liquid "Wait, wasn't there a warning in the book not to drink more then two potions per day, nah, I'm sure it's fine." Martin thought out loud, after he drank the potion he felt dizzy, his body then begun to shrink but Martin was feeling weird, but he still noticed something was wrong as his stomach didn't shrink it stayed the same size as the rest of his body shrank.

"What the hell is going on, I'm shrinking yet my stomach isn't, if I keep shrinking my stomach will be bigger then me and would lift me off the ground!" Martin said woozily before hiccuping, as he reached two feet in height his stomach touched the ground and almost reached his face, before long Martin was lifted off the ground by his own stomach, his body was the size of an ant before it stopped shrinking "I guess I should've listened to the warning, the potions effects aren't kicking in right and I think I'm drunk." Martin said as he rested his head on his stomach "I should try changing back to normal." Martin said, his body the slowly grew bigger but at a slow pace "I'm going to be here for awhile." Martin sighed.
