Chapter 1823
Daylight brightened the sky of Tokyo City. Charlie and Ito Nanako were having breakfast together. 3
Nanako turned to Charlie, saying, "I''ll ask the servants to prepare the guest room for you, Charlie-
Kun. You should rest first. You haven’t slept all night. It must be hard for you." 4
Charlie smiled a little and shook his head. "Don''t trouble yourself. I am not tired.”
"How can you not be?" eximed Nanako. She couldn''t hide the distress in her words. "Sincest
night''s battle with Fujibayashi’s ninjas, you haven''t rested at all. Not to mention how you endured
two battles and drove for hundreds of kilometers..." 3
Charlie smiled. "You didn’t rest too. Aren''t you feeling tired yourself?" he asked.
Nanako was startled by his question. After pondering for a moment, she replied, "I''m not really tired.
In fact, I feel as if my body is inexhaustible, filled with renewed vigor. I feel at the top of my game..."

"This should be the effect of the medicine you gave m e, right?” she interjected quickly.
Charlie nodded and smiled. "Yes. Not only can it cure injuries, but it also enhances the body’s
abilities and endurance. Whoever consumes these won''t get tired s o easily."
Nanako couldn’t help feeling impressed. "This sure is amazing. If it really provides me such energy,
then Charlie’s Apothecary Pharmaceutical will definitely be the best pharmaceuticalpany
in the world, right?" 1
Charlie smiled and replied. "The medicine can''t be produced. It is in itself a scarce item. It was
something ancient Oskian doctors left behind, and to use one means one less pill from the archive...
There’s no replenishing the item..."
Actually, the materials required to refine the rejuvenating pills weren''t that difficult to obtain. 2
The problem was that the pill had to be refined using particr energy-spiritual energy.
Reiki was the powerful energy used to transform solid steel into molten metal during the
steelmaking process. 6
If the energy wasn’t there, then the pile of metal ore would just remain as ore even if they were piled
together for tens of thousands of years. 3
As a result, it was actually not that difficult for Charlie to make the medicine, but the possibility of
mass-producing it seemed quite impossible.
Moreover, he couldn''t possibly put such a potent drug on the production line. Such a concoction
would prove too extraordinary for the ordinary person, and flooding the market with it would cause a
frenzy worldwide. And that itself was not a good thing for
Charlie.
When Nanako heard him say this, she felt a sense of regret, but she didn’t dwell on it for too long. 3
Charlie looked at the time. "I''d like to call them so they can make their way to Tokyo immediately."
Nanako nodded expectantly.
Charlie took out his handphone and called Isaac.
Isaac came on the line, asking immediately, "Mr. Charlie, where have you been? I didn''t see you the
entire night..."
"I am currently in Tokyo."Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
"Huh?" Isaac asked in bewilderment. "Didn''t you say you were heading to Kyoto to meet a friend?
Why travel to Tokyo all of a sudden? It''s a few hundred kilometers away." 5
"Something happened to my friend''s family, so I decided to apany her to Tokyo to check things
out." 4
"Oh ya, old man Isaac... how are things proceeding in Osaka?" asked Charlie. 6
Isaac gave a hasty answer. "Everything is going well. A s of today, everything should bepleted
before dusk. When do you think we should head back to Aurous Hill?" 1
"I called you to inform you about this," replied Charlie. "I still have matters to handle in Tokyo, so if
you guys are done, then take the next flight to Tokyo. I will meet you all at the airport. From Tokyo,
we will take a flight back to Aurous Hill."
Isaac blurted, "Mr. Charlie, the private jet can''tnd in Tokyo airport for now due to airport
restrictions." 6
Surprised, Charlie asked, "Why would there be restrictions on private jets in Tokyo?”
