Chapter 195: Awake
At the Moon Clan Territory
Janus straightened his back after seeing the report on how efficient the Glawackus powder offshoot compound was for mutants. Excitedly, he called Raine and informed her about his progress.
"It’s ready. You can pick it up anytime you want," Janus said with a dream smile at the thought of seeing Raine once more.
"I’m sorry, Janus. What did I request for you to do again?" Raine asked from the other line.
"About the memory loss powder. Don’t you remember? You asked me to make something that’s also effective on mutants," Janus explained with a frown.
"Oh, I indeed needed that. There’s an emergency right now, but I’ll have Lyne quickly get that powder from you," Raine neutrally relayed. "As expected though, you’re really a genius, Janus. Thank you for your hard work," she praised.
A smile almost stretched towards Janus’s ears upon hearing the simple compliment from the woman he had longed to love and adore.
"Thank you. I will hand this to Lyne then. Please use it carefully. It can be used only once, Raine, and another batch won’t be ready till after ten years since the flower needed to add in the powder only blooms every ten years. And that’s on top of the fact that it’s extremely rare to find," Janus reminded.
"Noted. Thank you again," Raine thanked him again before eventually ending the call.
"Why would the princess need this kind of powder anyway?" Janus wondered with knitted brows. He didn’t dare ask the Princess since he would just often follow her instructions wholeheartedly, knowing that it would please Raine.
Standing up from his seat, he grabbed a bottle of wine from his cabinet. He basically lived inside the King’s holding area, personally looking over him. His room was adjacent to where the man’s capsule was. Looking around, he let out a long frustrated sigh as he consoled himself with the fact that his efforts would eventually be compensated handsomely by having Raine as his wife.
Comfortably sitting on the couch, Janus drank the wine he poured into his glass. He grabbed his mobile phone and began tapping and scrolling on the photos of Raine he had sneakily captured during the events she attended with him. She looked so perfect from every angle, his future wife whom he couldn’t wait to get married to.
