”Elliot introduced her to me to get her help with regards to silver milk powder.” Answering Susanʼs question, I did not go deep into details, just stated the facts.

”Oh, I see. So how did you two become so close in such a short period?” Susanʼs eyes could not hide her anticipation for my answer to her question. I think this must be the gossip bone in Susan asking this question.

”Anna took a fancy to me. She is the classic princess type. She gets what she wants. But since throwing tantrums and throwing money wonʼt work, she tried to seduce me. Seeing even that did not work, her fancy had turned into an obsession. Honestly, I am kind of afraid that she will force herself on me. Therefore when we are in the Royal palace, donʼt leave me alone in a room with her. That gal is crazy, I say, Crazy!” I honestly narrated how my relationship with Anna progressed. Also cautioned her about Annaʼs tendencies. And how she did not understand that no means no.

”...” Hearing me speak so casually about the Southern Emperor, Susan was baffled and hurriedly eyed Van and old Ben to see their reaction.

”Donʼt worry about them snitching. They are my people. They would never snitch about me.” I assured Susan that Van and old Ben are trustworthy people and would keep the conversation in this room to themselves.

”If you say so.” Despite me assuring her by vouching for Van and old Ben, Susan still watched her words and acted with caution. After all, speaking ill of the Southern Emperor was a minor crime.

”So, what have you decided? Are you willing to try upgrading your bronze grade grimoire to a silver grade grimoire with the assistance of silver milk powder?” Having cleared her doubts and answered her questions, I asked Susan if she was willing to try upgrading her grimoire once again.

”Is this silver milk powder really that miraculous?” Susan found it hard to believe that the silver dust in front of her would help her upgrade her grimoire. I did not blame Susan for being a little skeptical. Excluding the rumors surrounding the silver milk powder, the effects promised by the intake of silver milk powder were too miraculous and too to be true. Therefore a little skepticism is to be expected.

”Yes, it is. Why donʼt you try a little bit?” Since words were not enough, I thought experiencing the effects should be enough to help her decide.

”That sounds reasonable.” Saying that, Susan tried to intake a pinch of silver milk powder I had given to her. But I hurriedly stopped her from doing so.

”Wait, that is highly concentrated silver milk powder; that amount should be enough to prove deadly for a card scholar, let alone a rookie Card student such as yourself.” For my personal use, I had made a separate stock of highly concentrated silver milk powder, which upon dilution amounts equal to kilos of silver milk powder. Therefore even a pinch of this concentrated silver milk powder was too much for a card student. It had to be diluted before consumption.

”Hey, it was you who suggested it,” Susan complained as I was the one who suggested it and also the one who stopped her from acting on my suggestion.

”I did, but I did not ask you to consume it directly. Fetch a glass of water. Letʼs dilute it.” I accepted Susanʼs complaint and ordered her to fetch some water to dilute the concentrated silver milk powder.

”Here you go” Soon, Susan brought a glass of water from the kitchen and handed it to me.

”Behold!” Taking the glass of water from Susan, I dissolved a pinch of silver milk powder, and soon the water turned into shimmering milk.

*Gasp* seeing the glass of water turn into a glass of milk, Susan gasped in astonishment.

”Just take a sip of it. That should be enough for you to experience the greatness of the silver milk powder.” I handed the glass of silver milk to Susan and advised her just to drink a sip of it as that should be enough for her current active soul control percentage.

”Okay,” following my advice, Susan took a sip of the silver milk water. As soon as the milk entered her mouth, Susan felt soothing energy on the surface of her tongue as it gently flowed through her food pipe into her stomach. As if pouring oil to the fire, Susan suddenly felt the soul energy in her rage as the silver milk water entered her stomach.

Feeling the volatile soul energy in her body, Susan hurriedly sat down in a lotus position on the couch and started to focus on tempering her active soul control percentage. And after a good five minutes, Susan opened her eyes, which were filled with great astonishment experiencing the miraculous effect of the silver milk water.

”Wow, this Silver milk powder is just marvelous. If I had such miraculous powder back in my high school years, I would have easily broken through and become a card apprentice back then. Wyatt, this really has more benefits than advertised.” It did not take long for Susan to convert into a firm believer in silver milk powder.

”Good, now that you know that silver milk powder works, what have you decided? Will you give it a try?” Seeing excited Susan, I asked her if she was willing to upgrade her bronze grimoire to silver grade grimoire with the assistance of silver milk powder.

”At first, I was skeptical because of all the rumors surrounding this powder but having experienced the effects of silver milk powder first hand; I am willing to take the chances.” Susan agreed to upgrade her bronze grimoire to silver grade grimoire with the assistance of silver milk powder.

”Great!” I exclaimed, hearing Susan agree.
