"And what exactly is this product you want to have the Union selling?" Lucile asked while rubbing hefiudo breasts in an almost subconscious manner.

Hal had just made an official introduction of the new business he wished to have the Paladin Trade union engaged in.

Hal was performing backstrokes in the pool and Lucile had her eyes glued on his body while she rubbed her tits... So aroused was she by the view of his magnificent body, that she soon began to pinch her nipples.

"An all-new alchemical mix designed to make cultivation much more pleasure and much more leisurely.

Basically, it is a single pill within which, there is nothing but happiness" Hal said.

Lucile rolled her eyes,

"I'll take care of coming up with a selling slogan although I do admit that that was pretty good.

Anyway, I was not asking you to tell me what I will be telling the customers, I was asking for actual information on what this pill is" She said.

Hal never stopped his backstrokes as they were quite relaxing for him especially due to the formation at the bottom of the pool... A formation that was powered by blue gems.

"The pill will be refined with energy from my Devil seed but as they will be mass-produced and as they cannot be tailor-made for the many potential customers that I wish to have it sold to, there is a need to be much less sneaky... Just a tad.

The last time I made use of the original version of these pills -then called Devil pellets-, I was connected to the targets enough to make it easier to just start a chain reaction and while I can surely take my time to find connections with which to start the chain reaction, the planning involving the Paladin Trade Union is much more direct.

Plus, any more reason to have the many fools on this continent give up the many blue hems they have is reason enough.

More blue gens means more resources at my disposal."

In all honestly, after the signing of the contract, there was no need for a business pitch as Lucile had basically agreed to accept whatever he said as law but Hal was not interested in taking the position of a dictator especially since he did not have to.

This plan of his was a win-win-win.

It was a win for him, it was a win for Lucile and it was a win fur the Paladin Trade union whose interests can sometimes differ from that of both Hal and Lucile.

Hal continued,

"The pill will be made as though it were a drug. It is going to be addictive and thanks to a little something called Infinity, the addiction will affect anyone who takes it.

Infinity will negate whatever immunity they should have against the addiction and allow it to better bypass their senses and security.

That said, the pill will also help in cultivation and as such, will be marketed.

You take one pill, relax and let yourself be swept off into a blissful trance and while you're in that trance, your body refines the pill's effects with no need for your supervision."

"That sounds quite nice. I think I want one" Lucile said with a smile.

"That would be breaking the number one rule of business," Hal said with a chuckle.

"What's that?" Lucile asked.

"'Never get high on your own supply'.

Anyway, the first batch of the pills will only number a hundred"

"That's little," Lucile said and she was being generous.

On a continent so large with a population in the Trillions, a hundred is smaller than small.

Hal dived into the pool and swam about a good while before he resurfaced never actually having to hold his breath, to say to Lucile,

"And that's the point. Out of the hundred pills, we will have twenty be given out for free and only choose marketable customers to give it to..." Hal said and Lucile chimed in,

"And by marketable customers, you mean the top of the food chain in regards to power and status"

"Maybe not the very top but close to the top. We get them hooked on the product and selling the remaining eighty will be done in an auction before it goes into mass production.

I should have more than willing helpers by then" Hal said but he mumbled the last part mostly to himself while he was thinking up all manner of people he could involve in a production so large. He and Arya could not manage on their own.

One pill per individual would not be enough... And the production of hundreds of trillions of pills was merely the starting point.

Even if he were to spend the production time within the Harem space or any other time-warped location, he would still feel the time passing by and he had so much to accomplish in that period... Namely his cultivation.

'I'll work out the kinks later' he thought just as Lucile took on a thinking pose,

"That sounds good... But we also need to bring some to the lower class... They are your targets as well right?" she said.

"They are but we will not be selling to them... They are important in the long run and essential for my goals but they are also much more easily malleable. We can afford to hold off on getting them addicted for now. Plus, they have no blue gems with which to pay for the pills.

We will be treating this as a legitimate business devoid of any ulterior motives besides being rich and we will completely dominate the supply.

The hard-to-gets in the form of the upper and middle classes are those we should target as they are the ones who can afford the blue gems.

Once we have those idiots hooked, we can distribute to the more lower-class denizens free of charge although we will probably water down the formulas a good bit on account of them being too strong and too quality packed for their frail physiques."

Lucile nodded as Hal swam towards her and then suddenly asked and looked at him as he swam closer,

"Wait a minute, is this why you came here? Is your only reason for visiting just so you could pitch this business?" she asked with a hint of outrage.

"Of course not. I came for a visit. If anything, the business idea only came to mind when I was with you. You were my inspiration..." Hal said before he kissed her neck and suckled on it which was tampering with Lucile's ability to think straight.

She still got her words out though. Albeit breathlessly,

"I find it very hard to believe you," she said, and then Hal grabbed one of her breasts and kneaded it before he grabbed one of her nipples and pinched it between his thumb and index finger.

"Mmnghhh... Oh what does it matter anyway!" she said after two seconds of attempting to hold back a moan.

She grabbed Hal's head and pulled him away from her neck to plant a kiss on his lips.

Hal chuckled into the kiss before he fully indulged in it and they restarted what had been done previously in one of the many rooms of this large mansion.

***

Hal went on to spend two days with Lucile in the Harem space... Two days which translated to about five hours in the real world.

They had spent the two time-warped days having sex and working out the kinks to Hal's new pill business with it already agreed that the Paladin Union will announce having made a partnership with an anonymous Alchemist.

Hal was curious to see how much disruption he would cause when the effects of the pills became much more well-known as well as how hard he would be sought out. He being the mysterious Alchemist.

He was willing to bet that eventually, some of the pills would be bought just to be reverse engineered so their secrets could be stolen but he was not even remotely worried.

The recipe for the pills was of his own making... A mixture of his knowledge as a Devil as well as an Alchemist. They would never be able to figure it out and also never be able to realize how bad and how enslaving in nature it truly is.

He had already given Arya the recipe and she was now working on a prototype from which she would proceed to make the first batch.

She was doing it all in the Harem space so there was time.

For additional workers, Hal would need to do something he had declined to do so far which was to actually get involved with Alchemists.

He did not particularly despise Alchemists, especially since he was technically one himself, it was just that he did not have a passion for the craft as much as he had a passion for Runemastering.

Ironic that it was in Alchemy that he was certified while he was still yet to be certified by the Runemastering masters of the Haron Continent.

Anyway, through Arya's memories, he had decided on the Alchemist to approach; A certain Lady Irma who was a Seventh Rank Alchemist.

Having her on retainer was bound to be good for the start of the Pill business and while her Alchemist rank was impressive, Hal was not too worried as he had seen through Arya's memories that she was much too focused on her Alchemical rank and did not really give that much time to actual cultivation.

Also, her focus on Alchemical development, with which she had hit a block, gave Hal a valuable way in.
