At this moment an innocent voice sounded and Rayna's body stiffened. She lowered her head and saw that Kove had opened his big innocent looking eyes, as he stared at her with a questioning expression.

"No, no, my son. I wasn't crying." Rayna hurriedly put a smile on her face as she caressed her child's small face. "Actually, something fell into my eyes. But don't worry, now it's fine."

As Rayna was talking with her son, Kadyn turned towards Khrom and said. "Take him away from here and dispose of him." He was completely disgusted by this man. He didn't even leave an innocent child due to his hatred.

Khrom held the man and grabbed him by the neck and cursed. "Shit this is too unbearable." No matter how Calak protested, he didn't loose his grip.

As he looked Khrom's fading back. Kadyn asked in his head. "How should give salary to my workers? Just now Khrom did a dirty job. But he didn't receive any benefit. He isn't like Elora who has potion-making skills. How should I pay to him?"

"You don't need to worry about it." After a brief silence, System spoke. "There is already a system for workers." System paused for a second and continued. "There is a new option at the bottom of your profile—Employee."

Kadyn opened his status window and looked at the end, and indeed, there was an extra option. "Just click on it and you will understand." After explaining the system again fell silent.

Kadyn did as he was told. After that two names appeared: [Elora] and [Khrom]. Kadyn spotted in front of their names the option of Energy Points. However, at this moment it was showing [Inactive]. His eyes glittered and he said. "Active"

Just as he had predicted. The option changed in front of their names and it turned to [Active].

"After activating it, employees would get their energy points automatically if they do any work—or complete a mission—given to them by the shop owner." System explained. "Every task has a fixed value. Similar to the standard price of potions. Though you can sell the potions at a higher price, you can't increase or decrease the value of a task.

"But yeah, if you want to give your employee extra points then bear it in your mind that their value would be halved. Where they need to expend a single energy point, they have to expend two. Everything has its own merits and demerits. It's up to you, how you see the situation."

Kadyn understood and nodded his head. Does that mean the points that I gave to Elora and Khrom would be halved in value? He shook his head and sighed. He turned towards Elora and said. "You arrange a Place for Mis Rayna."

Elora nodded and patted Rayna's shoulder gently. Then she looked at Kove and a warm smile appeared on her face as she exclaimed. "Wow, you are so cute!" then she looked at Melvona and said. "Come here. From now on, he would live with us, you need to take care of him, as his big sister, ok?"

Melvona blinked her eyes and nodded and looked at Kove curiously. Kove also turned to look at her but then exclaimed. "Wow, big sister is so small!"

"..."

"You… you…" Melvona pointed at Kove but couldn't find any word to retort him. Then she dashed away towards the Potion Hall where she was staying with Elora.

Rayna glared at her son and said. "That was rude, Kove. you shouldn't have said that to her."

"But… she…"

"No but," Rayna chided him. "You'll go and apologize to her immediately."

"Fine," Kove signed depressedly when he looked at his mother's stern expression. Elora chuckled and held Rayna's hand. She knew that her emotions were in turmoil at the moment, but she controlled them as her son was in front of her. "Alright, lets go," Elora said and led them to the Potion Hall.

Kadyn looked at their backs and frowned. "I need to build a house." However, when he looked at his Energy Points, a depressed expression appeared on his face. "I need to sell all the potions that I brew for an auction."

As he said, a middle-aged man entered the shop. He looked around and his eyes fell on Kadyn. "Sir, do you have a Strength Increasing Potion?"

Kadyn looked surprised and said with a gleeful face. "Yeah, sure, come. I'll show you. The name of the potion is [Draught of the Bear]. It could increase the strength of an ordinary man or elementary magus by about two times. It could also increase the mana by1.5 times."

"Good, I'll purchase a potion?"

….

After dealing with the middle-aged man, Kadyn didn't have to wait much longer before another customer appeared. He was a student. Though Kadyn didn't know his name, he knew that he was a regular customer.

At noon he ate the food with everyone that Rayna made and couldn't help but praise her culinary skills nonstop. She was a brilliant chef. Elora saw her brother's behaviour and puffed her chest out arrogantly as if telling him: ain't I amazing?

Just like that the entire day passed and the night arrived. This night wasn't like any other night. It was special, especially for Khrom. He looked eager and impatience was written all over his face. He couldn't wait to tear that bastard piece by piece. Kadyn patted his back and assured him. "Don't worry, today you will have your revenge."

Khrom eyed Kadyn and a grateful expression appeared on his face. However, he didn't say anything. He just remembered this favour in his heart. Then he looked at the gate and said. "Why aren't they here yet? It is already midnight."

"Don't worry, there are still two hours," Kadyn said. "However, if they don't arrive after two hours, they could not blame me for being merciless."

Khrom nodded and waited patiently.

Time passed and half an hour later Kadyn exclaimed. He peered into the darkness with a cold expression. Khrom followed his gaze but didn't see anything. "What is it?" he asked.

"A rat," Kadyn replied and stood as he stared at a certain place. After that, a star pattern appeared—in which ten red stars glittered—under his feet as he shouted. "Meteor Shower!"

The sky turned red and a vast number of red meteors fell from the sky. "Fuck, how did this brat discovered us?!" an angry shout came, and then someone punched towards the sky and all the meteors shattered like playing cards.
