Elder Lan was very happy in regards to Alex joining his team as an assistant Alchemist.
"Right, before we finalize this, I want to test your skills. I will be asking you to make a pill for me. Is that alright?" the Elder asked. "Worry not, I will be paying you for this pill as well."
"I can do that," Alex answered and looked around. "Right here?"
"Yes," the elder said. "Get comfortable. I'll gather and check what pill you should be making."
Alex nodded sat on one side and brought out his cauldron, placing it above the furnace. The two other people in the room looked toward Alex for a moment but said nothing and went back to making pills.
Alex didn't focus on them too much, but the fact that there were people in the same room making pills made him feel a little weird about the whole situation. Usually, an Alchemist would get a singular room and wouldn't have to share it with anyone else.
