The Romantic Trials Of A Transmigrated Empress-Chapter 258: Potions class.

Because she slept late, Sigrid woke up late the following day. Upon opening her eyes at the lunch hour, she rushed through a bath, dressed up and hurried to the mage estate to teach her first class on magic potions.

Despite rushing, she still found a classroom stuffed to the brim with children and adults, all mages that had come to learn.

Awakening potions were selling through the roof, a gold mine as far as mages could see. So, everyone wanted to tap into the gold mine and enrich themselves.

She was surprised to see such a large volume of students including the Lord mage. The student that surprised her the most was Emmah whose face had not been seen around the mage estate for at least three months. Regardless of her presence, Sigrid put on her best instructors face and looked at the class. Everything she needed had already been prepared on a table.

"You guys are really punctual." She commented. "Did you even eat lunch?"

A mixture of replies were given in response. She clapped her hands. "Oh well, let’s get straight into it. I am the Crown princess Sigrid Thorin-Maximus, your teacher on magic potions.

My lessons will be divided into two categories, theoretical potions, the ones that could be possible but require research and practical potions for daily use that will help you earn money."

Some mages in the class cheered, shutting up when the Lord mage glared at them.

"During class you can address me as teacher Sigrid. When we are out of class, use my royal title." She turned around and waved her hand towards the pot of white paint on the desk. On the dark blackboard, she used the wand to scribble out the words. "Beauty potions."

More than a few female mages in the class sat up. Which woman did not want to be beautiful?

"Beauty, we all want it but not everyone can have it. This doesn’t mean it cannot be bought with copper, silver or gold."

Someone snickered.

"There are different types of beauty potions." She waved the wand and the types of beauty potions were written down on the blackboard. "Radiance elixirs, that make the skin glow. Hair growth potions that make hair silky, voluminous and resistant to bad weather. Perfect smile potions that do exactly what they are called. Graceful potions which will have any commoner mistaken for a noble.

Elegance tonics which improve poise, posture and structure. Youth brew which keeps the skin youthful and wrinkle free."

Some murmurs traveled in the classroom. Sigrid ignored them and continued.

"Youthful brews also have categories because their effects last for specific time periods. A month, a year, ten years, one hundred. It depends on the ingredients that were used in brewing and the strength of the mage that did the brewing.

We have silken skin potions, enchanted eye drops, glossy lips oils and sensory mists which enhance charm and make the wearer smell like a beautiful dream." freewёbnoνel.com

Excitement increased, drowning out her voice. She had to clap her hands again to get the attention of the students back.

"I know that you are all excited but you should know that these potions are not without side effects so I expect you to be attentive. If you are not, you will bring harm to others and be arrested or sued.

Those of you that will be successful at brewing potions of this nature should always remember to include warning labels on their products. For example the radiance elixir that we will be brewing today. While it gives one a glowing skin, if over used, it can cause one to become too dazzling that they are mistaken for a lantern or a sunrise. I will begin the demonstration now, you will watch me, note my steps and later on try it yourselves."

The students leaned in even more eagerly, with some enchanting their eyes to zoom in.

"The ingredients for the right radiance potion are: One rose petal, one drop of fairy dew, one pinch of sugar, a single drop of phoenix feather essence. If you cannot get phoenix feather essence, you can replace it with moonbeam drops, stardust, mermaid scales, mystic rose petal extract.

Some of these things are available in the mage pharmacy and herb hall. Some are not, so those interested in researching radiance potions will have to find the ingredients on their own or purchase them."

She added the ingredients to a cauldron over a small fire, explaining every step critically. Then she stirred it dramatically with a wand.

"I am using a wand and magic, you can use a sudden spoon. Remember to control the fire too, it must be warm not blazing hot or too small.

And those of you that want to use unicorn tears should always remember that there is a risk of one becoming too beautiful that the beauty turns into a nuisance. Also, I have never run into a unicorn. Has any of you?"

The students also took a class on identification of magic beasts. They knew what a unicorn looked like, a horse with a horn. They had never seen one however.

In the cauldron, the liquid turned light red and Sigrid cooled it down with magic. She poured into five different glasses. Each glass held at least two small tea spoons of liquid.

"The moment of truth has arrived. I invite five volunteers to come out for a demonstration."

A nervous girl raised her hand and she was chosen but she had a question. "Teacher princess, what happens if it spills?"

"Then the floor will be competing in the pagent for the most beautiful woman in Eldoria." Sigrid answered.

Some students snickered.

Sigrid took the first sip. Instantly, her skin developed a beautiful shimmer as if she had just stepped out the bath and applied glossy oil to her body. Her hair also became shinier.

"See?" she pulled the pins out of her hair, let it fall and shook her head from side to side.

The volunteers were quick and eager to try out the portions. One was too eager that the glass slipped out of her hands and fell on the head of the Lord mage. His hair and eyebrows transformed, shimmering in some places but not others. They glowed like molten gold, so he was half gold and half his normal white skin color. His hair was gold and black.

The classroom fell silent and the Lord mage scowled in the direction of the poor nervous girl who was trembling so much that it seemed as if she was about to faint.

"The potion goes into the body not outside or else you will look like the Lord mage, like a sick gold mine threw up all over you." Sigrid said, muffling a chuckle. "And it can only be drunk in small doses. One or two tea spoons a day are enough. Long term use will change the quality of one’s skin for the better."

The Lord mage raised his hand and pointed to his head, eyeing Sigrid unhappily. "Fix this."
