Arce mouth was wide open, his jaw dropped to the ground. The cold beauty in his presence had nothing in comparison with what he thought. He had been expecting an old man or woman not this. The breathtaking appearance of the lady with all the necessary endowment in full completeness makes him lost in trance.
" will you keep staring at me? Or tell me what you are for!" Zara asked. She had been getting furious with his action.
"Hmm"
"Sorry, hmm…."
Rubbing his eyes with the back of his hand, he stared at her to be sure she is real.
" Are you really an alchemist? '' Arce asked, still dazed.
" yes, any problem with that? Hmm"
" No problem, just that it kinda shocked me to see a young heavenly beauty as you here."
" you don't know what you are for. I believed that. Excuse me. " standing up heading toward the exit.
Abruptly, Arce stood up. He stretched his hand, wanting to get hold of Zara. Turned back, Zara glares at him with a piercing gaze.
" I believed you were not trying to do what I thought you wanted to do, hmm?" Raising her brow.
Like a robot, he slowly returned his hand to his back. Avoiding her gaze " why would I do that, am just stretching my hand that's all."
" I thought so"
Seeing that the alchemist is about to exit the room. He quickly said " pardon me if I had offended you in any form. " he bowed his head a little.
" hmm hmm"
Nodding her head she went back to her seat. " tell me what you want. I don't have all day "
" sure, sure. Can you concort a pill to make a body building realm breakthrough to essence building realm." He asked respectfully. Since there is no pill like that in their empire. He was just trying his luck.
He was nervous not to be rejected for stepping over the line with his overboard demand.
Staring at him, Zara wait for a few, she said " do you know that their in no such pill in the empire, hmm"
" yes, yes. I know that. Since you are the legendary alchemist of our empire and that could make those heavenly pills, I hope maybe you can concort that kind of pill. Sorry if I'm over demanding."
" that good to know. Don't expect something extraordinary with your measly rank 2 monster beast,"
" sure"
"Ok, about a pill to make a breakthrough to essence building realm, hmm" tapping her finger on her lips, she thought.
Realizing the fact the legendary alchemist is thinking about the pill he asked, he was full of glee " Ancestors let there be a way. Himph, those families who thought they could pull my family down, hmm be dreaming " he thought with his lips curled upward a bit.
"Hmm, because you are the first person to meet our criteria, I will make it for you." She said.
" what! "
Arce jumped up and shouted on top of his voice. He froze and stared with wide eyes and raised eyebrows, trembling. He could not believe what he just heard. He rolls his eyes looking at Zara with his jaw dropped.
" will you shut up and keep quiet?" Zara pointed her finger at him.
Calming down from the delight, he sat avoiding Zara gaze. " sorry am just too happy. I never thought our family would have a chance to get this kind of pill."
" That doesn't mean you should shout like a mad man,hmm?"
Raising his eyebrows, he frowned his face, his gaze met with Zara's. He swallowed what he wanted to say when he saw those deadly gazes.
" himph"
" The herbs and ingredients that will be used would be provided by me. Next time you will be the one to provide that."
" no problem "
" Wait for me while I go and concort your pill," Zara stood up and left.
Arce had smiles all over his face. " I know the legendary alchemist would have a way. The royal alchemist is nothing but a child's play in front of the legendary alchemist. Let see how the royal family behave now, himph" he murmured.
After two hours, Zara walked inside looking exhausted. She sat down and faced him, she brought out two blue pills " these are pills which can assist cultivators to breakthrough from bodybuilding to essence building realm while it can also help essence building breakthrough to another level. " she said smiling.
Seeing the blue pills, Arce fixed his gaze on the pills, smiling while his hand trembling a little.
" Tell me am not dreaming? " he asked.
" you can believe whatever you like. Should I return the pills or you're going to take it right now, hmm?"
Immediately, he grabs the pills and stores it inside his storage ring.
" Thank you, what are the names of the pills?"
" himph"
" after collecting the pills, you are now asking me the name, hmm?"
Arce avoids her gaze and laughs " ah ah aha, not like that am just too happy that's all. Moreover, you can't fault my behaviour,hmm"
Zara smiles " that's true, those pills are called ESSENCE GATHERERS PILLS. Peak bodybuilding realm stage 9 can only use it after solidifying their foundation. It can only be used once. It will assist the cultivators to breakthrough with sixty percent guarantee. For essence building realm it can help in breakthrough with forty percent guarantee. So, both bodybuilding and essence building realm can use the pill"
" ah aha ah, I knew it. A legendary alchemist is different from those fake alchemists we have. Thank you, ahh ahha ah"
Seeing the behavior of the elderly man like this, will bring out a question. what can make him lose his composure. But when they are told there is a pill that can assist cultivators to breakthrough from bodybuilding to essence building without wasting numerous years to stock at stage 9 bodybuilding realm, they would understand. No such pill exists in the empire and the neighboring empire. This is a dream come true for cultivators from both the small families and the big families who can afford the pills. These pills from the legendary alchemist will bring forth a new era in the sky polar empire.
" You can leave now but think you can ask me for another pill. That wouldn't work, you only have one chance and you have used it. Though am supposed to give you one pill and I gave you two. It's because you are the first person that meets me, hmm. And tell others from your factions or whatever you're in. I don't need monster beast anymore, hmm"
" don't worry I will relay the message to my friends and alley. Thank you, thank you. Aha aha" Arce stood up smiling broadly and left.
"Anybody there?" Zara asked
Walking outside, it was already getting dark. But the crowd stood there waiting for the return of the elderly man that went in.
Arce laughs " aha ah aha ah" he looked at the night sky " ancestors your legacy shall continue " he murmurs with a smile all over his face.
The crowd started talking in a hush voice when they saw how happy the elderly man was.
" he had meet the legendary alchemist, see how happy he is"
" sure I believed the alchemist have solve his problem "
" mhmm, but who is this legendary alchemist?"
From the crowd a woman asked " esteem elder, did the legendary alchemist solve your demand? "
All the people waiting outside look at the elder anticipating his reply eagerly " yes, what do you think? You see me smiling like this should have answered your questions, hmm"
Shortly the elderly man disappeared from their presence, leaving after image.
"Hmm"
" Why did the elderly man left suddenly like that, we still got some questions to ask him."
" maybe his gain from the legendary alchemist is great and he did not want to waste his time with us"
" yes he left to report to his family"
As the public were busy talking among themselves. A young lady walked out of the red sparrow tent.
" please am here to inform you that the legendary alchemist will leave tomorrow. So you only have tomorrow, anything tomorrow after the legendary alchemist would have left. And monster beast is not accepted anymore " she bowed and went back inside the tent.
The crowd instantly busted with various talks
" what!"
" leaving tomorrow why? "
"Let me go and report it back to my family"
As they were busy talking among themselves a shadow abruptly passed their front with a great speed and entered into the tent.
thes bi no
"Hmm"
" what was that?"
