This dragon girl raising system is a bit strange.

Thor stayed in the living room for a while before returning to his room.

After confirming that the door was closed and no one was around, Thor immediately opened the system panel.

[Low-grade Marrow Cleansing Elixir *1 (Description): Slightly improves cultivation aptitude.]

In the system's inventory, there are low-level marrow cleansing potions obtained from previous missions.

With a thought, a bottle of pale blue potion appeared in his hand.

Thor held the potion up to his eyes and examined it closely.

The cone-shaped glass bottle was sealed with a cork. The pale blue, transparent liquid inside rippled slightly, emitting a faint glow, and one could sense the intense magical energy within even through the glass.

Despite having the word "low-level" in its name, this low-level marrow cleansing potion is anything but low-level.

If this thing were sold on the black market, he suspected that this potion could fetch at least 30-50 gold coins.

That amount of money could buy 3-5 Yulias, and if converted into weapons and equipment, it would be at least the price of a purple-quality item.

Money isn't the biggest problem.

The biggest problem is that this thing is exclusively supplied to a very small number of nobles, and even nobles of the Thor family's caliber have a hard time getting their hands on it.

If this bottle of medicine were to circulate on the black market, it might arouse suspicion and investigation from others.

In addition, my current strength is weak.

After weighing the pros and cons, he quickly decided that it would be best to use the potion himself.

Thor pulled out the cork and drank the liquid in one gulp. The cold liquid slid down his throat, causing a slight stinging sensation in his esophagus, before quickly entering his stomach.

Immediately, a warm current spread from my lower abdomen, slowly flowing to my limbs and gradually filling my entire body.

Thor felt himself enveloped in an invisible warmth, and then the temperature of that warmth gradually increased.

At first, it felt like being in a sauna, with the perceived temperature quickly rising, turning into an uncomfortable feeling of being covered in scalding steam.

Thor was drenched in sweat, gritting his teeth and enduring the discomfort.

The perceived temperature finally stopped rising.

After persisting for a while, the temperature gradually dropped, and the discomfort gradually disappeared.

Once the discomfort and the warmth around him completely disappeared, Thor felt a great sense of relief.

[Your cultivation talent and aptitude have changed. Please check.]

Upon seeing the system notification, Thor immediately brought up his talent panel to see how much his original D+ cultivation aptitude had improved.

[Name: Thor Blas]

[Class: Mage]

Current level: Tier 2 (50%)

[Talent and Aptitude: C]

[Main Skills: Basic Spellcasting LV.2, Spellcasting Mastery LV.1]

The current qualification level has skipped C- and gone directly to C level.

This is good news, but it's not enough.

If we evaluate a talent level from D+ to C out of 100, it's roughly equivalent to improving from 20 to 40 points.

As we all know, it's relatively easy for a student who scores 20 points to improve to 40 points.

With a difference of 20 points, it's very difficult to improve from 70 to 90 points.

Thor doubted whether taking only a low-level marrow cleansing potion would be enough to improve his aptitude from B- to B.

Leaving aside Yulia, a talent monster with S+ aptitude, even the fat guy Rogge, who's obsessed with figurines, only has A- level cultivation talent.

Thor doesn't know how long it will take to catch up with Rogge.

At best, he has only progressed from kindergarten to primary school, while his competitors are undergraduates and graduate students.

Thinking of this, Thor couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

That's incredible!

Fortunately, when God closes a door, he opens a window.

This window is called System Daddy.

In the short term, completing tasks directly issued by the system can yield fairly good experience.

However, the item rewards for these tasks far outweigh the experience rewards.

After all, very few people do female character side quests for experience points, right?

The previously completed task gave him 5000 experience points, which was a huge sum for a second-tier player like him. However, compared to a fourth-tier player who was normally considered for this task, it was probably not even enough to fill a tooth gap.

"Hopefully, the later quests in Julia's side quest will give more experience..." Thor thought.

In theory, experience gained from later tasks should increase exponentially; he just wanted it to be faster.

This world is not that peaceful.

Nothing is happening now because Thor himself was the scourge of the first chapter, and since he hasn't made any moves, things are relatively calm for the time being.

However, the second chapter will inevitably come.

The second chapter is titled "The Earl's Secret Techniques".

Triggered by a certain count, using the same sacrificial power as Thor in the first chapter, not only turned half the city's inhabitants into zombies, but also greatly enhanced the count's own strength.

It was precisely because of this incident that the kingdom was severely weakened, and the subsequent Red Moon Insect Plague was completely ignored.

In order to deal with these unstable factors, the plan to elevate Yulia to the extraordinary level should be carried out as soon as possible.

After Yulia advances to the extraordinary level, she can not only share 10% of the cultivation progress through the bond, but also act as a bodyguard to protect Thor's safety.

However, Thor still felt a vague unease in his heart.

He remained somewhat worried that Julia might become that uncontrollable factor.

On the very day Julia was redeemed, Thor signed a "master-servant contract" with her on the spot.

This contract was made using a special magic scroll and medium, and it is bound to the soul. In extreme cases, Thor can use "Command Seals" to control Yulia.

The premise is that Yulia's strength cannot be too great.

If Yulia's strength far exceeds Thor's, it could very well cause the soul contract to fail.

"Forget it, we'll deal with that later."

Based on the experience points given by the mission, it's not certain who will cultivate faster.

Moreover, in his eyes, the adorable Yulia would most likely not do that.

"We have no choice but to give it a try."

Even disregarding the perspective of a bodyguard, Yulia must advance to the extraordinary level.

Otherwise, without Dragon's Tears, what will happen to his poison?

He shook his head, dispelling the thoughts in his mind, took out the books he had borrowed from the library that day, and pulled out two sheets of paper. He began to copy down the materials needed for Yulia's advancement to the extraordinary realm.

......

The next morning, Thor woke up naturally, took the list he had written the night before from the table, and handed it to the butler.

"Young master, what is this?"

The butler held the list in his hand, staring at the list filled with writing on both sides, and was slightly stunned.

He roughly counted, and there were at least 30 documents among them.

Among these are mostly rare materials, such as herbs that are hundreds of years old, crystals that are extracted after powerful monsters die, and extremely rare ores.

Getting these things is not easy.

"It's okay, you don't need to gather them all for me."

These are the materials needed for Yulia's advancement to the transcendent realm and the purification of Dragon Tears.

Thor certainly didn't expect the butler to be able to get all of these things.

"Get as much as you can."

"Yes."

The housekeeper agreed, his mind filled with the connections his grandfather had built up across various industries.

It looks like I'll have plenty to do all day.
