Chapter 54: Actually Going Back To Work
After getting her to understand the concept of cheese, Lake thought it was time to go. "Alright, I'll see you two next time." Lake could tell he had made a strong enough impression that he was going to be invited back. Once he was out the door Lake realized he had forgotten to grab any food for his servants but he decided it didn't matter, because if his plan worked soon everyone would be eating it.
The thought of eating it for every meal made Lake happy enough that he decided to follow through on his thoughts of working later. Usually when he said he would do something later it never got done. Lake went towards his room and since it was so close he was there. Opening the door, Lake saw his servants. "Sir."
"Sorry to do this to you, but would you mind setting the Lab up again? I can get back to work now." When it had first happened Lake thought this was going to be a serious problem. He wasn't expecting to just drink one potion and be able to get back to work. If he did, he would have told them to keep the Lab ready.
"It's no problem sir, we'll have it ready soon. We kept the ingredients on the Lab floor so we could get back to work when you were ready." Lake appreciated them being proactive so he told them. "Good work, let's go." Lake just wanted to max out Alchemist to see what his next two skills were so he could decide if he was going to get serious about Alchemy.
If his next two skills were just normal Rare skills and not Unique he might just set aside Alchemist as an auxiliary skill holder. Entering the Lab Lake said. "Get the stations set up." Lake didn't say any more because he realized they weren't alone in the Lab. Solomon was over in the corner looking through some of the discarded potions they had left here earlier.
Lake thought it was weird that Solomon wasn't even hiding his snooping. Lake guessed he was going to play it off once the conversation started. Maybe he thought it would have looked suspicious if he stopped after Lake had seen him doing it; this would make it seem like he was fine with Lake seeing him.
Lake put on his nice and stupid face, he didn't want Solomon to know that he had already caught on. "Hey Lake, did you make these? What is it, an Intelligence poison?" Lake had no idea he hadn't really chosen it for its effect. He had picked it because its description said it was really easy. "I don't know, I already forgot."
Lake could feel Solomon secretly getting mad. Maybe that question had been more important than Lake realized. Solomon probably thought the effects of the potion would help him figure out Lake's skill. "Why don't you taste a little and see." Lake turned around to see Nia had just walked in and she didn't seem like she was going to play along with Lake's acting.
She was openly hostile towards Solomon. This made him think there were more things than just him breaking into Millie's room going on. This was bad for Lake. He was hoping to play both sides a little until he felt it was safe to pick one. His only option was to be subtle. He looked at Nia, and told her with his eyes to go away.
She seemed to get the idea because she turned and walked over to one of the empty stations. "Is this when people come to the Lab every day?" Lake found it odd that both Solomon and Nia were here at the same time and it made him think there was a reason. "Yeah, the Lab's always open, but this is the time that some of the older residents of the spire set for lessons, so there's always a chance one of them will come to teach us something."

Lake noticed a lack of Millie which made him wonder how bad was the tension between them that she would rather miss the lesson then see Solomon. Lake also found it weird that Solomon hadn't tried to turn Lake onto his side yet. He had to know Millie and Nia would warn him about him.
"What's up with Nia, why is she so hostile towards you?" Lake had to ask this or Solomon would find it weird. Lake had pretended to have decorum by waiting till Nia wasn't around to ask. "They think I broke into Millie's room. It happened about a year ago and Nia's been like that ever since."
Lake saw Solomon's angle now, by not bringing it up first he could act all sad when Lake asked about it. It was a good move instead of trying to get Lake onto his side Solomon was acting like there were no sides. It made him look innocent and it made Nia and Millie look wrong. "Why'd they blame you?"

Today was Lake's lucky day apparently, another Legendary skill. That either meant he beat the odds or Unique Jobs defaulted to Legendary skills once they ran out of Unique ones. "Ok I'll see you guys later I'm gonna go see Guild Leader Lucas." Lake grabbed his sword, and walked out the door.
