The reason for his curses and baffled expressions was that he found the Task incredibly simple and easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One must not forget that since his resurrection in the Harry Potter World, Kai had been practicing potioneering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure, he had gotten little time to do so. But with his background as a scientist, what he could do the best was to follow the instructions in the most accurate and precise way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With such a thorough explanation and guidance, Kai believed he could brew the bestpotionthe Samurai had ever drunk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his mind, and though unintentionally, he had already labeled the tea as nothing but another potion that he must brew using the ingredients given.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The etiquette he must follow, Kai related to the various precautions a potioneer must adhere to while brewing the potion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could he ever fail such a task that seemed inherently suited to him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Kai never underestimated his enemies, either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's why it troubled him more, finding it all so simple?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What's the trick here?Kai questioned himself, frowning.There must be some hidden trap, I am sure. Tch!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kai spent another two hours going through all the data.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he was done, he put the Tablet down and closed his eyes to go over the contents once more in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only half an hour later did he open his eyes\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Kai didn't leave the hall he was in. Not yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, he spent 100,000 Points on buying a Life Halt Tablet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>100000 Points deducted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One Life Halt Capsule will halt your aging by 10 years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can only buy one Life Halt Capsule in the Samurai's Hut, Candidate Red.

Hmmm...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Points stackable, Kai noticed that hoarding them over time was the best strategy over the long term.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long term... Sigh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let's do it then, Kai thought, standing up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kai entered the room, where the Samurai had vanished before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an uninteresting chamber, with almost no furniture. In the middle of this chamber, Samurai Jack was seated, holding a set of clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This chamber was not the destination of the task, as Kai had thought before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after going through the Tablet's data did he get to know that there were several steps involved before he could even begin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the very first step was having a nice bath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kai took a deep breath, approached Jack, and sat opposite him. Then he bowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samurai Jack bowed in return and handed the clothes over to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When you walk out from this chamber through that door,\" he told Kai, pointing at a different sliding door with his eyes, \"you will reach the outer courtyard. There's a well in front of the courtyard, between the hut and the tree's trunk. You can bathe yourself there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Tea Room is on the right side of this chamber, accessible from the outer courtyard. The Tea Room and this room share the wall behind me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When you are ready to serve the tea, knock on it twice and I will know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kai nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked out and found himself face to face with grandness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tall trees, full of greenery, surrounded a pool of water and a well in front of Kai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with the colossal trunk of the tree, all trees felt like overgrown grasses, making it impossible for one to truly appreciate them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cobbled path was leading out of the courtyard as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dreamy, indigo light was falling over the surroundings, Kai noticed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he looked up, he found the blue foggy shimmers in the sky had turned shades of violet and purple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps it was this dimension's way of portraying evening, Kai thought, stepping onto the cobbled path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew water from the well using the bucket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every inch of his body was covered in scarred wounds and filth, his clothes tattered and soiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kai put his military uniform and the six daggers on one side and bathed himself before donning the new set of clothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a black kimono and a pair of white socks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From neck to toe in black, and with short, white hair and reptilian, hazel eyes, Kai looked incredibly handsome, in the prime of his youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He ran his hands through his wet hair and drew a sharp breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air leaned toward the cold a bit, but it was much more soothing than that of Island X. The temperature of this place was also just enough to make a naked, wet body shiver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of wind, there was no sign. But Kai noticed the rustle of leaves and the sound they made.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, another fact crossed his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Never after his mother's death, Kai found himself so free and relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, the task weighed him much, but wasn't it just like brewing a potion?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a smile on his face, Kai walked back to the Hut, his ears ringing with the ripples of water, and nothing else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***************\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>AN:Now you can accessOVER 60 Chapters (across 4 Tiers)of Chaos and Orderahead of Webnovel on Patre0n (+ monthly Chapters).
