Master Gregory walked down the stairs with a contorted expression. He had decided to leave since it appears that his meeting was pointless. The main purpose of his visit was to procure vitality-based medicinal pills. That was why he had the urgent meeting with Celestina in private, as the matter was related to his life.
However, even though he had found a seller of pill and wanted to purchase them directly, he was told that he couldn't procure them. Despite his status, he couldn't change Celestina's mind.
As Celestina was stronger than him, he couldn't do anything but resign in defeat and leave and come back later to procure on the day of the auction. He just hoped that the availability of the pills would not attract the big families that lived in Southeast Stronghold, as that would make his hope of getting the pills to become bleak.
