Five gold, five bloody golds!
This is what it cost for Lizzy to get her alchemy License back. That was it, nothing else. Then they turned around and spent 200 gold on a Mandrake.
That move really baffled the concerned receptionist, who had offered them to pay five gold in installments. Were they rich or poor? Which was it?
Either way, Jack and Lizzy left the Alchemy Tower like thieves, rushing out. They felt like they had dropped a nuke on a children's playground to deal with a little bully.
Meanwhile, in the back…
"Pfft— Hahaha, kid! This was the greatest thing I've seen in my 500 years of (un)life! But with this, we have everything we need to make you STRONG!"
It was time to go back to the Flame Mansion!… and what awaited him was a hero's welcome. His foxes had even practiced human-like clapping for the occasion!
— Clap! Clap! Clap! —
"Woo! Woo! Woo!" (Master, Master, Master!)
