"Balbo, I heard you were looking for me?"
"Small matter. Right, Burnside, you're almost done with the things on hand?"
"There's still a little more left, but I've sent someone to keep an eye on it. It'll definitely be done before the discussion."
"It's been hard on you."
"Heh heh…"
After a round of smalltalk, Balbo dived into the main point. "Actually, I need to discuss an important matter with you today."
"What is it?"
"You've heard about Elin having concocted the Catalytic Potion, haven't you?"
"Mhm, someone has told me. Congratulations, Balbo. Elin has finally done you proud." Old Grimm was all smiles at the mention of the Catalytic Potion. The problem that had bothered the Pharmacists Guild for decades was finally solved by Elin. As a member of the Pharmacists Guild, Old Grimm naturally couldn't help but be happy.
"Ai…" Balbo laughed bitterly at Old Grimm's congratulations. "Looks like you don't know yet…"
