Chapter 155: 149: Jar of Capturing Life

"Do you know, Ferris?" Ryu asked straight to the point. "She's been asleep and wouldn't wake up. Maybe you know how to wake her up?"

Lizzaforth inspected the growth of his herbs as he said, "Ah. Yes. Yes. Ferris. The last time she came here was to ask about the Legion steel. .. and. .. love. .. and. . ."

Ryu was having a hard time understanding Lizzaforth, and he came closer to where he was.

Lizzaforth shot Ryu a look and nodded to himself. "I see. So you're the one, ey. .. Ohohoho! Youngsters nowadays!" He then went back to attending his plants.

Ryu's patience was running thin. "Do you know how to wake her up?" he repeated.

"Patience, my boy, Ferris wouldn't be waking up anytime soon no matter how much you ask me."

"So you don't have an item to wake her up?"

Lizzaforth put down his bug spray and faced Ryu. "Faux told me about Ferris's condition, and I'm afraid that even I couldn't bring a soul back from the cycle of reincarnation once it left the body."

Ryu's fists clenched, and he briefly closed his eyes. He could only rely on Tethyt's Jewel now. "Do you know about the lost Jewel of Tethyt's?

Lizzaforth went to another side of his garden and inspected each bud of his plants. "Yes. Though no one knew what it looked like, nor do I have a picture of it if that is what you're looking for."

Ryu grumbled. He was beginning to think that it was a waste of time even to come here. Lizzaforth was supposed to be a legendary Alchemist, and his expectation was high. His excitement died down together with his hope.

"Then. .. do you have an item that could store living things in a storage ring for only temporary?"

"Ohohoho." Lizzaforth laughed. "I do have an item that lets you capture living things in a jar called Capturing Life. It can be stored in your traveler's ring. It has a capacity to store ten living things each."

With a swipe of his hand, a dimension rift appeared, and Lizzaforth rummaged through it. "Now where is it?. .. Ah. .. here it is. . ."

Lizzaforth pulled out a jar made of glass with a cork seal. It looked ordinary, and it was relatively small enough to fit in a palm. There was nothing special to it except the carvings of spells on its crystal front. 

"Behold the mighty Jar of Capturing Life. I made it myself, and there are no others like it out there."

Ryu's mood somewhat brightened, but he was still skeptical. Especially about the naming sense. "They aren't going to die in there, are they?"

"Nope. As long as they have food and water, they'll live. Gravity is constant inside no matter how much you flipped it and if you want to free them, just break the glass, and they'll be back to their regular forms."

Lizzaforth sharp nails poked the glass while grinning. "I designed this for hunters to capture beasts. Though it couldn't capture those Rank-A and above, it could store those below it with no problem."

"Does it have a constraint in time?"

Lizzaforth's eyes twinkled. "Of course. Every item has one or more constrictions. Even the great me couldn't escape that natural law of creation."

Ryu frowned and grumbled. The old man was talking too much.

Lizzaforth flexed a finger. "Thirty days upon use before the spells and carved symbols fade."

Ryu thought for a second. He was not confident that they would find the exit within thirty days in the second Islet. But it was better than nothing. 

"How much are those? I need at least three." Ryu estimated that he needed three bottles at least if he wanted to carry the halfbreed and slaves inside his storage ring. He'd only take the weak ones who didn't know how to fight and take them to the exit. 

At least he tried to help them like what Ferris did to him and hoped that they'd make it out alive. This was all he could do for them.

"Hm. .. how much will you offer for three?" Lizzaforth grinned.

Ryu brought out all his items except Nereid's Grimoire and the Legion Steel. The Grimoire was too valuable to be given or exchanged while he needed the Legion Steel for his Seal of Promise with Rigulus.

"I only have these at the moment." Ryu laid the precious stones he acquired on the grass-covered ground as well as the two storm potions and Ursula's bottle. Too bad about splitting the treasures with Kai and Jane, but he needed those Jars at the moment.

He'll just make it up to them with the precious stones or whatever was left of his items.

"Hmm. . ." Lizzaforth took a closer look at Ursula's bottle before he looked away. "Nasty. .. I don't want anything to do with that witch."

His eyes then glint upon the storm bottle as he picked one. "I think this will do. You can have three Jars of Capturing Life in exchange for just one bottle of this. In addition, since you're a first-time customer, I'll add four Lizard Tails to your purchase."

Ryu agreed, and he stored the rest of his items inside his storage ring. He was actually glad that Lizzaforth chose the Storm Bottle. It was a double-edged item, and Ryu didn't want to use it if he could.

After Ryu made the trade, he asked, "Do you know about the Queens Horned Mackerel?"

Lizzaforth skimmed his jawline. "They are abundant at the Elves lakes and ocean but very rare anywhere else."

"Do you have a picture of what it looked like?"

Lizzaforth snapped his hand, and a paper and pen appeared. "I'll draw for you, boy. Consider it as another new customer perk."

Ryu leaned over to Lizzaforth, but within seconds he was done, and he handed the picture to him.

"Huh?" Contrary to Ryu's imagination, the Queens Horned Mackerel didn't have horns at all. It was just a fancy-looking fish with blue scales and pinkish golden fins that seemed to glow. 

(Pic)

Ryu was more awed that Lizzaforth drew a picture like it was real. 

Must be a requirement to become a legendary alchemist. Ryu thought.

In the end, Ryu and Lizzaforth parted ways, and he was back in his tent. 

The moment he opened his eyes, it was Seraphina's beautiful sleeping face that stumbled into his view.
