Chapter 125: Recovery Pill

Liu Ye's eyes widened at Queen Luna's health and mana but her level and her status, it was understandable. She had access to the best armors and outfits while also being a talented bender with four mastered elements.

What surprised him more though was her almost empty mana bar which showed how much effort one needed to put in order to defeat one of the Fire Spirits. Even if one had a huge team, many would die in the process.

"This potion is too weak for me..." Queen Luna muttered weakly as her mana recovered at the rate of 20 per second. "I need to consume something stronger or we will stay here all day."

Ten of that came from Liu Ye's Mana Potion while the rest was purely her own passive regeneration. It was quite unreal to imagine she had 200 MP Regen when he only had 2, but Liu Ye didn't compare himself with her anymore.

"Do you have anything?" Liu Ye questioned helplessly. "I didn't bring any Large Potions but I will buy some when we reach the city."

"All those store bought potions are useless on me so I have to use special pills when I overwork my brain," Queen Luna admitted and shook her hips. "I have some in the back pocket of my pants. Can you reach down and take one out?

"I can but you need to let me go first," Liu Ye replied casually but Queen Luna shook her head while hugging him tighter.

"No, I don't want to. I deserve my huggies after such a tiring battle," Queen Luna argued and suggested while rubbing his back. "You have long arms so you don't need me to move."

Liu Ye rolled his eyes in response but he didn't quarrel with her even though he knew what was her motive. Queen Luna was perfectly fine with talking and moving but she wanted him to touch her all over while searching for her pills.

Sure enough, when he cautiously reached down, he was met with two tight pockets that were placed directly on her bottom. He tried to be as gentle as possible while checking its content but he could still feel her buttcheek through the soft leather.

"Ahh..." Queen Luna moaned playfully when his whole palm entered into the pocket and it turned out to be empty. Liu Ye was clearly being tricked by her but he still checked the other pocket.

"Do you think this is funny?" Liu Ye questioned annoyed when he found nothing once again. "I'm pulling you away."

Liu Ye wouldn't let anyone play with him like that and jerked Queen Luna away but she stopped him at the length of her arms. She held his shoulders and only tilted her head while looking at him innocently. "What? Are they not in there? I guess I must have thought we would be sitting so I put them inside my vest. Can you reach inside?"

Liu Ye raised his eyebrows and lowered her white bandana to check her expression. He expected her smile playfully but she actually looked down shyly and apologized, "I'm sorry you have to see me in such a state. I think it's because it has been a while since I emptied my energy. My head is spinning so I need to hold you not to fall."

To prove him wrong, Queen Luna let go of his shoulders and momentarily staggered back into his chest. She wrapped her arms around his head and whispered weakly, "Can you reach inside? There is an inner pocket on the right side. You need to first unbutton the vest in the middle."

It didn't look like she was faking it so Liu Ye gave in again, this time being even more careful than before. He couldn't see anything while she was squeezing his neck but her white leather vest was surprisingly easy to access.

Her vest opened wide which revealed her hooded shirt that hugged her chest tightly. Liu Ye couldn't help but notice it probably helped her keep her breast from flying around when she was running and jumping into the sky.

"Is that it?" Liu Ye questioned after finding a bag of small pills on the right side and Queen Luna finally pulled away.

"Yeah, they are special Recovery Pills. Pull out one pill and put the rest back," Queen Luna replied while sticking out her tongue. "Feed me please."

This time Queen Luna couldn't hide the joy from her face which exposed she did it all on purpose. Knowing they were most likely going to fight more Fire Spirits afterward, she for sure knew how to play her cards. He needed to cooperate with her as he couldn't bail out from the possible Main Quest.

"This is the last time I'm doing it," Liu Ye warned as he pulled out a round blue pill and hid the bag on its place. He actually wanted to inspect the pill but he gave up after nothing came up.

"Aaaa," Queen Luna opened her mouth as Liu Ye popped the pill in her mouth and he barely escaped with his fingers when she tried to lick him. It was too easy to predict so she couldn't catch him lacking.

Liu Ye ignored her pout after unsuccessful trap and started watching her stats to see the Recovery Pill's effects. Nothing changed for the first few seconds until her Mana regeneration suddenly exploded.

+60

+60

+60

"Not bad," Liu Ye nodded in approval, but he secretly expected much more. The effects of his Mana Potion were already over so this Recovery Pill should be able to recover 1000 Mana after 20 seconds.

At least that's what he initially thought until Queen Luna shocked him with the truth.

"Mhmm, this pill is great. It's effects last for at least an hour and I usually never feel tired no matter how much training I do," Queen Luna explained while finally letting go of him to stretch. "I should have used the pill before but I didn't expect the Fire Spirit would tire me out."

"Wait, what...?" Liu Ye paused while trying to comprehend what she just said. "Are you saying this pill's effects last for an hour?"

"Yeah? Why are you so shocked?" Queen Luna asked while loosening her shirt to give her chest some air. "This pill is the most desirable item made exclusively by the Royal Family. Many benders would do anything to get their hands on it."

"How much do they cost?" Liu Ye asked with hidden interest but Queen Luna smiled as she caught it.

"Unfortunately, they are limited in quantity and only the highest officials have access to them," Queen Luna replied with a shrug. "If you were to work for me, I can spare you a few."

Liu Ye went silent for a moment while calculating the pros and cons before shaking his head. "No, thank you."

Even though those Recovery Pills seemed broken as they most likely increased the Passive Recovery by 1000 for an hour, he would still find a way to get them in the future.. On another hand, Queen Luna's offer got better every time so it didn't hurt to wait a bit more.
