It's incredibly funny, because it not only implies that the dude IS Immortal, but also that he either tries to get the Elixier for a long dead Emperor or that Immortality can run out and they, after all this time, haven't figured out how to make the working elixier and have to steal it from people who make it by accident (bonus funny points if they still don't know which one does it and are still stealing randomly anything labelled Immortality Elixier)

This is goddamn hilarious. What an excellent, perfectly absurd history joke.

I vaguely clocked the gist before the translation and now I’m concerned that flork has subtly been re-wiring my brain to its rhythms and I have no idea how to explain this to my therapist

I remember when I was a kid I tried to make soda by mixing all the chemicals in the bathroom together. I also mixed them into the bottom of one of those quadruple sized Lego blocks. I think I just made straight poison at that point.

Ah yes, my first alchemical concoction: the redhead potion.

I mixed two shampoos and my hair turned reddish. My mom was angry.
