"It's settled then," the Emperor said. "We will start our Pill-Creating competition right now. Headmaster, tell them the rest of the rules."
The headmaster nodded and started explaining the rules to the audience members. For the sake of saving some time, the competition between the two monarchs was going to take a maximum of 10 days.
Anyone who failed to make a pill in those 10 days would be disqualified. If both failed, a single day would be added. The days would continue to add up until one of them made a pill.
When that happened, the other person would get a single day to finish his pill or lose.
Once the explanation was done, the staff members of the school began preparing the stage for the two monarchs in different corners. At the same time, the headmaster started making up a list.
Both Alex and the Emperor were provided a list of ingredients that were available in the Royal School's storage.
