"Do you have a time limit or can I prepare some things before I start making the pills?" Alex asked.
"I would prefer if you start right away. I don't want to spend my entire day here in this room waiting for you to prepare," the old man said.
Alex looked at the 12 ingredients and turned towards the old man. "It will take an hour at best to prepare. An hour and a half at most to make the pill," he said. "If you can give me that, I can make a 90% pill."
The old man hesitated a bit. On one hand, that was a lot of time. But on the other hand, he really wanted to see if the young man in front of him could do something like that.
"Fine, go ahead. We can wait," the old man said. Harry wanted to object to the decision. At the very least, he wanted to leave the room to go make some pills of his own. However, he too was very interested in where Alex got all of his confidence from, so he stayed behind.
