Raviel grabbed the bottle, gave it a quick glance, and downed it in one go.
The moment the liquid hit his throat, he winced and let out a short cough.
"Damn it! How can it be this hot and still taste tangy?"
Garion chuckled, watching him from the side.
"That's one of the side effects. It works great, but the flavor… well, still a work in progress."
Raviel squinted at him. "Wait... One of the side effects? What do you mean by one?"
Garion crossed his arms, looking completely unbothered.
"Yeah. The drink might make your body overheat for a bit, maybe shake your body a bit, and you'll probably see a few sparks jumping off your skin.
He then remembered another side effect.
"Oh, and also don't forget to drink some water later, as dehydration could be a possible side effect too."
Raviel blinked. "What the hell, Garion! You could've said that before I drank it!"
Garion grinned. "You didn't ask."
