"What?!"
Upon hearing the words of the man in green, Holland Keller's pupils involuntarily constricted, his usually calm face now spread with a look of shock, "A 'Grade One alchemist' under thirty years old?"
"Are... are you sure?!"
As the conversation progressed, the intensity of Holland Keller's gaze upon the man in green became like a blade, sharp and penetrating.
"Certain."
The man in green nodded vigorously, "Recently, many alchemists saw him during the 'Alchemist Competition' hosted by the Gagnon Family."
"It was there that he revealed a 'Grade One red flame,' exposing his identity as a 'Grade One alchemist' and joining the Gagnon Family."
The elderly youth spoke with utmost certainty.
"Under thirty years old!"
"Grade One alchemist!"
Holland Keller's eyes narrowed, "If he's a Grade One alchemist, then he can't possibly be a 'monster'! But if he's human, how could he possibly have become a 'Grade One alchemist' at such an age?"
