Start By Becoming Mangaka 676 Love Drug Incident (Patreon)

Yuuki saw both Akane and Makoto were making something in the living room. 

"So what are you doing?" Ranko asked. 

"Onee-chan taught me how to make something, but I'm not sure what it is," Makoto said. 

Akane laughed, "Haha, I'm teaching her how to make a love drug."

"..." 

"Love drug?!" They were surprised when they heard it. 

"O - Onee-chan, I - I'm not sure that I need this drug," Makoto felt a bit embarrassed when she thought that she would create this thing. 

"Don't worry, even though it is a love drug, the effect is only making yourself more beautiful in front of your surroundings," Akane said. 

"Is it? But why does it smell so bad?" Yuuki complained. 

"It was a failure," Akane said. 

"It's a failure?!" Makoto was startled. 

"Why did you teach her that?" Ranko asked. 

"It's for her to be careful since there is a stray witch that has sold this drug to random people," Akane said. 

"Is that okay?" Yukana was a bit worried. 

"You have a protection charm from him and I'm sure that you guys will be alright," Akane said. 

"Have you caught the culprit?" Yuuki asked. 

Akane nodded, "I have planned to catch it, but can you help me?"

"Do you want me to help?" Yuuki asked. 

"Yeah, I believe in my power but I still want to be careful," Akane sighed and said, "I have wanted to ask Rossweisse but she has gone back to her hometown." 

Yuuki nodded, "So when are we going?" 

"It should be tonight, I know the location of this stray witch but it is better to be careful," Akane said. 

"...." 

Yuuki was a bit speechless at this woman who asked him to go with him today. He thought it would be three days or a week but it was tonight. 

"Can you?" Akane asked.

Yuuki nodded, "Yeah, I can help you." He thought for a bit and asked, "So the effect is only something akin to make up? Making yourself be more attractive or something?" 

Akane nodded, "Yeah, it depends on the price." 

"For information, how much is the price?" Ranko asked. 

"The cheapest should be 1 million Island Coins," Akane said. 

Ranko and Yukana sucked a deep breath when they heard it. 

"Is it really that expensive?" Makoto was surprised. 

"Of course, even though the ingredients are quite easy, it takes a long time to make it," Akane said, and continued, "Every magician needs a lot of money for their research, so 1 million is a normal price." 

Yuuki started to think that he could rob the money of this stray witch. He looked at her and asked, "So why are you hunting this stray witch? Is there any kind of quest or something in your organization?" 

Akane nodded, "That's the gist, we a legal witch that is entered an organization also need to work to get money, for example, this quest where I need to catch this stray witch." 

"Onee-chan, I also want to do a quest too," Makoto said. 

"Hmm, I guess that would be a good experience for you, I will call the broker and you can meet her tomorrow," Akane said. 

"So what is the payment?" Yuuki asked. He was curious about what kind of currency that was used by the witch. 

"The reward is gold," Akane answered. 

"How much?" Yuuki asked. 

"It should be 10 kg of the gold bar since this stray witch has caused a lot of trouble," Akane said. 

"......." 

"I don't know that witch can make a lot of money," Yukana sighed when she thought about it. 

"Yuuki, can I become one too? Magician or witch?" Ranko asked him. 

"Hmm, for you, it isn't a magician, but something similar to Sacred Gears user," Yuuki said, and added, "Still, that thing is dangerous, I have given you something akin to protection when you're in danger, that necklace will open the seal inside that will teleport you back to me." 

"......." 

"That's incredible," Akane was amazed and looked at him, "What is your magic? I have been curious for a while." She saw that he could do a lot of things. She thought that he was a Sacred Gears or Longinus user but it seemed that it was more than that. 

Yuuki only smiled, "I'm only a normal magician, nothing special." 

"...." 

They wanted to spit when they heard his words. 

"Normal magicians won't have a connection with the governor of Fallen Angel and Maou from the devil world," Akane snorted. 

"Anyway, I will help you later," Yuuki said and asked, "Is it related to Khaos Brigade?" 

Akane nodded, "Yeah, it should be, their organization needs a lot of money, it is normal for them to use this method to raise money." She sighed and said, "The love drug is better, I have heard that they can even create a fake Phoniex Tears, even though the effect is lower but it is cheaper a lot of people have bought it." 

Yuuki nodded since he believed a lot of people would be attracted to the effect of Phoenix Tears, especially when that person had lost their limbs or would die tomorrow, such a drug would be sold at a very high price. He started to think that it was very easy for him to create money. He looked at her and asked, "You're going to give me some of the rewards, right?" 

"Of course," Akane nodded and said, "I have asked for your help, of course, you will get part of the reward." 

Yuuki nodded and thought that it was better to hunt a stray magician since the money was a lot and it would only take one day for him to solve it. His job as a bodyguard for rich people was also good but it needed a lot of days to finish it. 

"Good, let's catch this Stray Magician tonight," Akane said. 

"Onee-chan, can I come too?" Makoto asked since she was curious. 

Akane looked at him in response. 

Yuuki nodded, "Don't worry, I can protect her." 

Akane nodded, "Prepare yourself." 

Makoto nodded and asked, "Where are we going tonight?"

"Shibuya."
