Chapter 91 Original Spirit Water—Alec is adopted
Thank you Xenon7926 for your 3 Golden Tickets (^_^)

When Alec saw that text, his eyes widened, and his face was filled with disbelief. Malina, who was standing next to him, was also very worried, even though she already knew that Alec would definitely lose.
Although Alec lost, it wasn\'t a big deal, on the contrary, this bet was just a breeze.
But what Alec lost was the \'Original Spirit Water\', and a single drop of it was enough to compete with a 6-star pill.
In that jar, there were 3 drops; just 3 drops of \'Original Spirit Water\' was enough to make the entire capital crazy, even if you had money, you couldn\'t buy even a single drop.
Malina\'s heart was bleeding. \'Original Spirit Water\', that was \'Original Spirit Water\', there were even 3 drops in that bottle.
Malina bit her thumb and immediately thought about how to get the bottle of \'Original Spirit Water\' back.
Alec was different this time. He took a step back and muttered: "No way, that\'s fake... that\'s right, your ID card is definitely fake."
Lusha now spoke up: "Fake? Are you stupid? The ID card cannot be faked, and on the card there is also the royal seal and the seal of the Duchess."
"Alec, you insulted the Duchess before, scolding her in public."
"Ah! This crime... I\'m afraid you will be locked up in a dungeon for at least a month. If it\'s worse, you\'ll be forced to work as a slave in an ore mine for a year."
"Hehehehe… Alec, what punishment do you think awaits you?"
Alec\'s mouth trembled, and he continuously shook his head as if he didn\'t want to believe this truth.
"Well… you don\'t admit defeat?" Lusha continued speaking, her words filled with mockery, like an arrow shooting straight into Alec\'s heart.
"I…" Alec gritted his teeth and wanted to say something more, but Medos\'s voice rang in his head.
"That\'s enough, Alec… we don\'t need to mess with them too much. \'Original Spirit Water\' is precious, but in this place, we can\'t do anything but give up."
Hearing that, Alec became even angrier, but it was just as his teacher had just said. There were too many people here. If he doesn\'t give up and continues to refute, he will be exposed as a petty person.
However… it was \'Original Spirit Water\', 3 drops of \'Original Spirit Water\', his heart was bleeding.
He planned to save them for when he reaches a high level and use them to advance his magical and physical power to new heights.
Or, using them to save a beautiful girl who is in danger was also extremely worthwhile.
But now it\'s different, just because he was a little angry, he let anger completely take over his mind, causing him to lose his ability to reason.
\'Could it be… it\'s all part of his plan?\' Alec thought to himself, feeling extremely scared.
\'Certainly so. He knew that the person who adopted him had a higher position than the Marquis, so he tricked himself into the trap he had prepared in advance.\'
\'He\'s so scary. Lathel, I have to take you seriously. Not only are you good at deceiving women, but you are also a devil full of cunning plans.\'
If Lathel knew what Alec was thinking, he would surely scream: \'Are you stupid?\'
However, Lathel didn\'t know what Alec was thinking, but Alec looked at Lathel like he was a cunning monster smiling.
Lathel took a deep breath and threw the bottle containing 3 drops of \'Original Spirit Water\' towards Lathel.
Lathel was also startled and took the vase.
Alec said confidently: "This time I give up. I, Alec, am a man, losing is losing, there is nothing to refute."
"At least, I\'m not like someone who only knows how to cling to women\'s skirts to survive."
After speaking, Alec snorted in contempt, then turned to leave when Malina suddenly spoke.
"Excuse me… I… can I use…"
Lusha suddenly interrupted Malina\'s words: "Hehehe... are you planning to use another medicine to exchange for the \'Original Spirit Water\'? Go to sleep, maybe you\'ll dream about it, hahahaha..."
"You…" Malina was so angry, she almost revealed her true nature.
But Malina was a \'professional actress\', she immediately calmed down, then looked worried and said tremblingly: "I... I just feel like it\'s just a small bet, and there\'s no need to take such a precious thing."
"I… I\'m just worried about Alec, maybe that\'s very important to him."
"No need, Malina! I said, I accept my defeat." Alec said firmly: "I\'m not the type to be petty and break promises. It\'s just a bottle of \'Original Spirit Water\', later on, I will have things that are many times more valuable than the bottle of \'Original Spirit Water\'."
Malina: "…"
She felt like crying. She then thought to herself \'Why is this bastard so stupid? Can\'t you see that I am trying to help you get back the \'Original Spirit Water\'?
"Hahahaha… You guys amuse me…" Lusha floated in the air, she held her stomach and laughed loudly: "Malina, at first you didn\'t stop this bet, it was only when you saw that Alec lost his \'Original Spirit Water\' that you spoke up?
"You don\'t care about Alec at all, you only care about the \'Original Spirit Water\'."
"You…" Malina gritted her teeth, she suddenly grabbed Alec\'s arm with both hands: "Alec, everyone thinks I\'m a bad person, do you think so?"
Alec was angry, but when the beautiful woman held his hand, he immediately forgot everything. His face expressed joy as he said: "No! They don\'t understand you, but I understand you."
"Malina, even if the world is against you, I will fight the whole world to be by your side and protect you."
"Alec…" Malina raised her head, her wet eyes looking at him.
Alec smiled and said: "Don\'t worry, it\'s just a bottle of \'Original Spirit Water\'."
Hearing that, Malina had an admiring look on her face, however, in her heart she was scolding Alec: \'Just a bottle of \'Original Spirit Water\'? Are you stupid?\'
But she couldn\'t reveal her true thoughts. She looked at Alec with an admiring face and said: "Wow! Alec, you\'re so cool. It\'s like \'Original Spirit Water\' is just a bottle of mineral water to you."
"Of course…" Alec smiled confidently and looked at Lathel: "This time I lost, but next time, I will definitely win."
Having finished speaking, Alec turned and left. Malina glanced at the bottle of \'Original Spirit Water\' in Lathel\'s hand. She was pained that she had lost it to Alec, but in the end she had to turn around and leave.
When Lathel saw Alec and Malina leave, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Lilith also waved her hand at this time and said in annoyance: "Enough, why are you gathering here?"
The surrounding people, of course, knew how precious the bottle of water in Lathel\'s hand was, but his status was now much different than before.
Now they were all aware that he was a member of a powerful family, and it was well known that the power of a duchess was extremely terrifying.
Most of the people here were just students, and their status is just that of small nobles, while Dukes or Duchesses were like giant monsters, of which they would be afraid.
Besides... This young man is also a student of the Fifth Elder, and the Fifth Elder even protects that young man.
Those two things alone were enough to make everyone silent, not daring to look at Lathel more.
Lathel felt the worried and scared eyes of the people around him and could only sigh.
He raised his head to look at Lusha, frowned, and said: "Lusha, you... are a little different from the first day I met you."
"Hehehe…" Lusha smiled and said: "Anyway, I am no longer an employee of Enchanter Tower. Without being constrained by the rules of this place, of course I can return to being myself."
"Heh?!" Hearing that, Lathel was a bit surprised: "So... you quit your job?"
"That\'s right."
"Why? Because of what happened that day?"
Lusha smiled and said: "Hehehe... no, I wanted to quit a long time ago, it has nothing to do with you."
"So… will we still meet?" Lathel looked at her and asked.
Hearing that, Lusha smiled mysteriously: "Maybe it\'s possible... but I don\'t know when we will meet again. Maybe 10 years from now, maybe 100 years from now."
Lathel sighed, it seemed that everything he thought had crumbled into ashes.
It\'s okay, what belongs to me will definitely belong to me. Whatever doesn\'t belong to you, I\'ll let go happily.
He smiled and said: "So... good luck to you."
"Hehehe… goodbye." Lusha smiled and waved her hand, then threw a fist-sized stone at him and disappeared.
Lathel shook his head, as he felt that the meeting between him and Lusha was like a dream.
But anyway, he and she didn\'t see each other much. This was also the third time he had seen her, so he wasn\'t too sad when she left.
Lathel looked at the stone that Lusha had just thrown at him. It was a two-colour elemental stone that was white and purple.
He, of course, knew the value of this stone, he silently thanked Lusha, then placed the stone in the space bag.
Suddenly, Lathel shivered. He looked towards Lilith and saw her pouting, her face showing discomfort as she looked at him.
"Ack! Teacher... you... are you looking for me for something?"
"Huh! When you see a beautiful woman, you forget me. In your eyes, am I still your teacher?" Lilith said sulkily.
"This… of course you are still my teacher." Lathel said embarrassedly.
"I feel like you don\'t consider me your teacher."
"Impossible. Why do you say so?"
"What?!"
"Ack! What I mean is… I respect you very much."
Lilith pouted: "Follow me..."
"But… I still want to go to the library." Lathel pointed to the library and said.
"Follow me! We all know what\'s in the library, and what\'s not in the library."
Lathel heard that and looked at Lilith with contemptuous eyes: "So why don\'t you tell me how to control Anaconda Flame?"
"This is a challenge for you." Lilith said with righteousness.
Lathel: "…"
"Okay, then I\'ll find a way to control it myself. Anyway… ack!"
While Lathel was speaking, Lilith grabbed his collar and dragged him away. Of course, he couldn\'t resist.
…
Outside, Alec and Malina walked together. At this time, Malina was no longer holding Alec\'s hand.
She secretly took out a handkerchief, quickly wiped her hands, and said with a smile: "Alec, do you have anything else like \'Original Spirit Water\'?"
Hearing that, Alec shook his head: "No, but trust me, I will show you that my value is a hundred times higher than that bottle of water."
Hearing that, Malina glanced at Alec, her eyes filled with contempt, but it quickly disappeared: "Of course I believe you. Alec, you\'re so cool; you just give out Original Spirit Water without even blinking an eye."
Hearing that, Alec thought that Malina was praising him, and this made him feel that what he did was right.
Suddenly, he remembered something and said: "Malina, since you adopted me, I hope you can agree to one condition."
"Alec, even though we just met, I trust you a lot. Don\'t talk like we\'re strangers." Malina smiled as she spoke, her smile was like green leaves catching the sunrise.
Seeing this, Alec became even more emotional. He said: "Malina, I want you to help me find a place for my organization to operate."
