Chapter 79: Half-heartedly
Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance
This wasn’t a joking matter.
‘Beside Cadgar, is there a single exceptionally outstanding Alchemist in the Black Horn Auction House? And even Cadgar himself would be startled and full of admiration at the ntion of Lin Yun’s na. He even felt that Great Mage rlin would beco Thousand Sails City’s first Artisan.’
Faleau really wanted to ask Hauss if sothing was wrong with his brain.
‘You are in Gilded Rose’s laboratory, yet you want to go work for the Black Horn Auction House, are you brain dead?’
But he decided that he didn’t really care. ‘Forget it, his brain issues don’t matter. I have hundreds of admirers in Thousand Sails City, it’s normal for a few of them to be completely stupid. I’ll deal with you and then go to the reception room. I can’t let Great Mage rlin wait for too long.’
Faleau quickly gave up on this admirer.
“Hmm, Alchemist Hauss, right? You should know these alchemy tools, I won’t introduce them to you. Let’s talk about your work. You’ll work on mixing alchemy potions for the ti being. I’ll have so people deliver so semi-finished potions and you’ll be in charge of handling them.”
“Yes, yes, no problem.”
People were strange sotis.
If Lin Yun had spoken to Hauss with such an indifferent tone, that young, talented Alchemist would inevitably have beco hostile. But since the one who said those words was Faleau, Hauss felt that those instructions were quite proper. Faleau was Thousand Sails City’s most outstanding Alchemist, soone that would soon beco a Great Alchemist. It was already a rare and precious occasion to have him talk to him, how could he hope for more?
After all, great characters weren’t like rlin, great characters needed arrogance deserving of their status!
Hauss could find all sorts of reasons for thinking so highly of Faleau.
If Hauss learnt that Faleau was just doing things half-heartedly because he was in a hurry to et the kind-hearted Boss rlin, who knew what he would think?
“Okay, I’ll be on my way.”
He wasn’t interested in what Hauss thought, so after quickly dealing with him, Faleau hurried to the reception room.
He stopped in front of the door and took a deep breath. He knocked on the door only after calming his heart and unwrinkling his robe.
“Co in.” Lin Yun was looking at the data he had on the Alchemists, and he casually pointed to a chair. “Sit down, Faleau.”
Faleau naturally didn’t dare to trouble him and simply sat across from Lin Yun. A few minutes later, Lin Yun was done looking through the Alchemists’ data so he asked, “Faleau, do you understand why Cadgar sent you over?”
“Yes, I understand...” Faleau naturally knew that Cadgar had seen him stuck at the boundary between Alchemist and Great Alchemist for so ti before he resolved himself to send him to the Gilded Rose. Whether it was Cadgar or himself, they both felt that the only one able to help him make a breakthrough was Great Mage rlin.
“Cadgar talked to
a few tis, and he said that you are among the youngest Alchemists of Thousand Sails City, one with the brightest prospects. He was hoping I could help you, and I agreed. I think that if you are hardworking enough, you’ll beco a Great Alchemist within three months. ”
“Re-really?” Faleau froze, ‘Gr-Great Mage rlin... He is saying that I’ll be able to break through? And within three months!’
Faleau would be suspicious if anyone else claid this...
But who was the person standing in front of him?
He was a peak existence among Great Alchemists, soone only a step away from the Master Alchemist rank. Moreover, Cadgar had been sighing in regret quite a few tis, sad that this Great Mage was spending too much ti on magic at the expense of his achievents in alchemy. If that Great Mage rlin was willing to spend more ti on alchemy, even just a bit, he would have already beco a Master.
Moreover, he might beco the first Artisan of Thousand Sails City.
Unfortunately, this Great Mage’s focus wasn’t on alchemy.
“Yes, three months.” The peak Great Alchemist that even Cadgar admired once again gave his guarantee, making Faleau’s heart race. Becoming a Great Alchemist, even reaching the Master rank didn’t feel as remote as before.
“I... I’ll definitely work hard!”
“That’s good, this is your contract. Sign it if you are fine with it. Later, I’ll show you around my alchemy laboratory.”
“Okay.” Faleau took a glance at the contract and then signed without thinking too much about it.
Lin Yun smiled, as he hadn’t expected Faleau to be so straightforward. This was a magic contract. He couldn’t back out once he signed it, or else the contract’s mana would make him pay a huge price.
“Good, Faleau, welco to the Gilded Rose.” Lin Yun extended his hand and shook Faleau’s. Just as he was about to lead Faleau to his laboratory, knocking sounds ca from the reception door.
“Knock knock knock, knock knock knock...”
Rapid and loud knocks rang out, far less polite than Faleau’s, making Lin Yun frown. “Co in.”
Sure enough, the newcor was Hauss...
“Mafa rlin! What are you up to!?” Hauss entered the reception room filled with fury. He threw his worksheet on the long table, using an impolite tone and even omitting the “Boss” part, using his na directly instead.
“I already said that I am an Alchemist, not a damn Apprentice Alchemist. Why is there no one to help
operate my alchemy tools! Why is there no one to help
process magic materials! Don’t tell
that the Gilded Rose is so poor that it can’t hire a few Apprentice Alchemists? You should know that an Alchemist’s ti is very precious. This is practically a cri!”
“...” Lin Yun scratched his chin and picked up the worksheet in front of him. He didn’t know what to say for so ti. Indeed, the processing of magic materials and the manipulation of alchemy tools were the work of Apprentice Alchemists in ordinary alchemy shops. But the Gilded Rose wasn’t an ordinary alchemy shop. What ordinary alchemy shop could hire fifty Alchemists?
