Chapter 328: Borrow Books
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Books?
Ton hesitated a little before nodding. “Yes, Sir. What kind of books do you want? We have books related to herbs, raw materials, and other general topics.”
This was only a branch of the Elixir School. Although there weren’t many books here, the number was still greater than in the other branches. The main campus gave them more books because Elder Tine was here.
“Bring as many as you can. I want to read them all. If you have extra materials, I’d like to have so, too. I can pay if needed.” Himl Soan gazed up at the sky.
Ton was surprised. “Sir, are you going to make pills now?”
“Yes.” Himl Soan nodded.
Before Ton could say anything, Himl Soan went out to look at the moon. Having stars and a moon in the sky ant there were other planets out there. Maybe he wasn’t in the sa universe as before. Maybe the planet was so remote that one needed a special thod to get here.
He wondered when he could receive news on Gina.
He stopped thinking about it. He had spent a long ti looking for Gina. It was ti that she waited for him. Once he was strong enough to figure out this planet, he would probably find her.
“Sir, the materials and furnace are outside your room. There are too many books, so I only brought a few of them. I’ll take you to the library when you’re free.”
Hearing Ton’s voice, Himl Soan returned to his room. Ton had sent ten portions of materials and a hundred books.
“Sir, here are the things you want. And these are for you, too!” Ton took out the red cores Himl Soan had given him.
Himl Soan was perplexed. He had asked for materials and books. Shouldn’t he pay for them? Why was he being paid instead?
......
“I paid you with the cores when I bought the defective pills. You don’t need to give them back. And here’s money for the materials.” Himl Soan put another core in Ton’s hand.
Ton was speechless. What was this?
If his master learned of it, he would be in so much trouble. “Sir…”
By the ti Ton realized what had happened, Himl Soan had returned to his room with the materials and books. He even shut the door behind him.
Ton didn’t even have a chance to say no. He wanted to cry. It seed his punishnt would never be over. Other things aside, he decided he should report to his master first.
“The master asked for materials and books, and he paid you for those things?”
“Yes. What should I do?” Ton lost almost all hope. His punishnt hadn’t ended, and so new trouble had already appeared.
When would this end? He really wanted to go back to refining pills!
“Alright. I see. Since he has given the cores to you, just take them,” Ein said after so consideration.
Ton was thrilled. “Great!”
“But you still need to stay by the master’s side and give him whatever he wants. Bring him a few hundred books every day,” said Ein.
“What? When can I go back to making pills?”
Even though his punishnt was finally over, he still had to stay with that master. He wouldn’t have any ti of his own!
Ein shook his head in disappointnt. “Idiot! You’re such an idiot! Did you just wait outside the master’s door like you were told to?”
Ton nodded in bewildernt.
That was right!
Wasn’t that what he was supposed to do?
“I really hope you’re not my pupil! The master is going to make pills. Can’t you find an excuse to stay in the room and learn from him?
“Although disturbing people when they’re making pills is a no-no, if the master lets you, you’ll learn so much from him!” said Ein in resignation.
How could his pupil be so dumb?!
If Ein hadn’t been an elder in the school, he would have gone to Himl Soan’s room and seen how he studied the defective pills!
He thought he might be able to learn sothing from Himl Soan. He had been stuck in the Contemplation stage for a long ti.
If he didn’t make a breakthrough in the next few years, he would reach the end of his life. Having talked to Himl Soan, he could see a hint of the next stage. That was why he was sure Himl Soan was an undiscovered master.
As for why Himl Soan was so young…
That was a sign of him returning to his original nature.
He looked like an ordinary young man, and he behaved like one. He had found his original nature!
“I understand!” Ton finally realized what his master ant.
He only needed to ask the master. If the other party agreed, what he learned would help him greatly in his alchemy skills. Even if the master didn’t say yes, such a capable person probably wouldn’t be angry at him either.
They had talked about so many things, and Ton was the one who had invited Himl Soan. Hence, he didn’t think the master would be angry.
anwhile, Himl Soan was reading in the room. He had a photographic mory and would rember everything after reading it once.
He could read ten lines at a ti and would only pause when he noticed sothing important. Otherwise, he could finish a book in a minute.
Firey also read with him. They enjoyed their ti together.
Himl Soan found a map of Stelladom in one of the books. He partially unfolded it, and the map covered half the floor. The room wasn’t big enough.
He took the map outside and spread it on the ground.
“The continent of Stelladom is like a round cake that’s been divided into eight sections. At the center is a big, round city, Cloud City. I ca from the north… Baihin City is here!
“What about further north? What’s that village called?”
