Chapter 260
"It is finished. Drink this, and don’t let a single drop spill. It was hard to make it," Sybil said, handing Amelia a wooden spoon with the potion she brewed.
"Wait. You said the other potion fell on her. Why does she have to drink this one?" Killian asked before Amelia could try taking a sip.
Sybil scratched the back of her head. "Fine, just throw it on your body. It should work the same way. I’ll get to pick the pieces of snake skin off of you."
Sybil didn’t see why the snake she killed should go to waste if Amelia wasn’t going to drink the potion.
Amelia felt more nervous to see that Sybil had forgotten she wouldn’t need to drink it. "On second thought, I prefer Killian putting me to sleep. For the last few nights, I’ve been able to sleep on my own. So," she said, pushing the spoon away.
Sybil wasn’t happy to hear this since it cost her a lot to make it. "I had to kill one of my snakes and find a special root to make this. Drink," she said, pushing the spoon toward Amelia.
"See, the snake is exactly why I do not wish to drink. How about you put it in a bottle, and I will use a tiny drop each time I take a soak? You just said I could put it on my body," Amelia smiled, ignoring the pure look of annoyance from Sybil.
Sybil was tempted to just throw the potion on Amelia and get it over with, but beside her was a demon who would set her on fire. "Don’t come back to my cave ever again. You’re just as annoying as your mother. Do whatever you want with it," she said, looking around for a bottle to pour it into.
"Thank goodness," Amelia sighed in relief. She wasn’t sure if she was going to use this potion at all. Sybil wasn’t making her feel safe with drinking or just placing a potion she made on her body.
