Retaliation of Disabled Girls
Chapter 44 POV Keith Engagement Plan

My eyes were fixed on my family's ledger. Our finances are really falling. I don't know what else to do. Iris was already trying to sell her potions, and my family's business went well, but everything couldn't cover the expenses for our mother's treatment.

The experimental cost of a new magic potion in hopes of curing my mother ate a large commoner. However, if I reduce then my mother's chances of recovery will be closer to zero, less than before.

It makes my head woozy. Since my father's death my mother's condition has started to deteriorate. There are footsteps out there.

"Sister, I managed to make a new potion, try it." Iris opened the door loudly while leaning on the potion bottle.

He put the bottle on my desk. I took a long breath. "What's the meal this time?"

"Just try it first, I'm sure you'll definitely like it" Iris replied confidently.

Iris always asked me to try her new concoction either for my mom or for the market. All that is needed to check the side effects and efficacy of this herb.

Before he could drink it he stopped my hand. "It's better in the training room alone" he added.

He smiled secretively. This behavior confused me, but I just obeyed. 

We arrived at the training room. I straightened this potion, but I felt nothing. Either side effects or the efficacy of this herb. Did this potion fail? However, my sister never made potions that did not have this kind of benefit.

"Try getting your fireball magic out" he asked.

Follow request. A fireball came out of my hand. It feels bigger than usual. I threw this ball against the wall. The damage force is stronger.

"Do you feel like there's something different?"

"My magic is getting stronger. So what's this potion?"

"Successfully." Iris hugged me without explaining everything. I don't understand exactly what he's doing?

"This is a potion to add magic power. In this way even though witches are born with weak strength even can become strong," he explained excitedly.

Not only from weak witches but strong witches would definitely be interested in buying this. The incredible magic power coveted by all magicians can be realized with the potion made by Iris.

I widened my eyes while returning his embrace. "This meal must have sold out loud in the market."

"Yes, Brother."

We both looked at each other with smiles. Gold coins will come to us. Our family finances will improve. Mother's treatment need not be delayed.

***

The potion to increase magic power sold out. Our family finances are starting to improve but the cost of experiments for mother herbs is still lacking. We intend to produce this potion in large quantities. The problem is that our workforce is only a little, which is me and Iris. 

I can only help prepare the ingredients needed while the person who processed the ingredients is Iris. Only the Potion Witch could do it. If we ask the other potion witches for help, they could have stolen this formula. We will be harmed instead.

There is one way that is to raise the price of this herb. However, after that the sales of Iris' new potion even decreased. After I investigated by asking the potion shop owner who sold magic power-enhancing potions, it turned out that the efficacy and price of the potions were not comparable.

I asked Iris to make a new herb that has more potent properties but instead there are side effects. Indeed my magic power became stronger but, I vomited after drinking it. 

While thinking of a way out, I received a letter from the Head of the Moonlight Family to pay a visit to my residence. I don't know what the need is. The current head of the Moonlight Family isn't that great, I didn't expect more.

I greeted him at my residence the next day. The silver-haired man followed me towards the living room. 

"So what are you here for, Mr Moonlight?" I asked without further ado as soon as we both sat facing each other.

"Did your sister make this?"

"Really, why?"

"I'd like to meet your sister and transact with her. I'm interested in buying all these potions, Mr. Skyrise." The Moonlight Family Head smirked.

Everything been? It's a good thing but my gut feeling isn't good.

"Sorry, my brother is busy. You can trade with me only," I said.

Brakes...

"Sister I have ramu-" Iris' words came to a halt as soon as she saw a guest. The door opened wide and I patted my head. I think I should teach him some manners.

"I'm sorry. I didn't know there were guests. Sorry to interrupt." Iris lowered her head many times in embarrassment.

"It's okay, there's something I'm talking about with Miss Skyrise" he said as he looked at Iris.

"With me?" Iris was confused but slowly stepped sitting beside me. He felt bad for being less root.

"I've already told your brother, that I will buy all the magic power-enhancing potions. I will buy at a higher price than the market. On condition that you only sell this to me and stop supplying the magic potion shops," the Moonlight Family Head said with a sneer.

"How much?" Iris seductive. So did I. I hope this guy buys at a high price.

"One hundred gold pieces per bottle."

We gasped at hearing that. The price is ten times higher than the normal price. It seems my bad feeling was wrong. Iris said men's hunch is often wrong.

"We agree" Iris replied quickly.

"I need one bottle every day. Once a week I hope you guys deliver these potions" he added. He started talking informally with us but we didn't care. As long as we can get the money.

In a week we will get 700 pieces of gold, if 3000 pieces a month. Our mother's treatment will go well. Although the Head of the Moonlight Family was not a strong person, he was rich. She must have wanted to increase her magic power with Iris' potion without anyone else's knowledge. That's why we have to supply him only.

"Do we need to write a covenant now?" many enthusiast.

"No need," There was a pause on the saying while looking at Iris. "in exchange I want to get engaged to Miss Skyrise."

I clenched my hands tightly while looking towards Iris. Iris's face looked surprised. So this was my bad feeling before. 

I turned towards the person in front of us with a frown. I wouldn't let my sister get engaged to someone like this. He's a crafty guy, I'm sure of it. "All you need is a guarantee we won't betray you, right? I heard you had a sister, just let me get engaged to her."

Iris pulled my sleeve while shaking her head. I smiled while holding her hand.

"Alright, that can be too. It's a pleasure to work with you, Mr and Miss Skyrise." He grinned and then withdrew. I drove him out along with Iris.

As soon as the horse carriage left, Iris spouted her words at me. "Do you know what Miss Moonlight looks like? Bad rumors about him? I heard he was blind and his face was broken. His attitude is also ugly. Probably the same as that guy. Why did you sacrifice yourself for me?"

"It's okay, I'll be fine. After mom gets better I will definitely cancel this engagement. I don't want to be a family with that person either" I said, holding Iris's shoulders with a smile.

He sighed, looking calmer. "Alright, take care of yourself Brother."

"Of course, my sister."

I hugged my sister to calm my heart. I felt that getting engaged to that guy's sister was a bad choice, but for my family's sake Kurela did whatever it took.

As soon as I came to the Moonlight residence, I slightly regretted my choice. Hunch right. The Moonlight family should not be approached.
