Chapter 38: The Refreshing Herb.



He was quite surprised when the receptionist handed him a two-star badge instead of a one-star.

Apparently, even though he had tried to keep a low profile during the test, he had still managed to achieve a higher-than-normal performance.

Even the receptionist, who had greeted him before, was a bit astonished by him.

According to what he had heard, one could even obtain the third star and have a higher chance of being promoted to the next grade if one scored a perfect score.

Ethan was now unsure if it had been wise to keep a low profile during the test, but he quickly dismissed those thoughts; after all, there was no use crying over spilled milk.

At most, if he managed to become proficient in refining pills within a few weeks, he would directly attempt the test for the next grade.

The lowest-grade pill an alchemist should be able to make was the Basic Recovery Pill.

It was a basic pill that every novice alchemist needed to be able to make.

It was a pill capable of restoring a person\'s stamina to a certain level.

Although this pill was very simple to produce, even for a novice alchemist, its market demand was still very high.

There were simply too many uses for it, so the demand for these pills was always quite high. (Guess in which fields it might be used ).

Infact, during the test to advance from apprentice alchemist to adept alchemist, one had to be able to make three low-grade Recovery Pill Pills.

One had a total of five attempts, so the margin for error was not very high.

Ethan, who had more or less acquired all the basics of alchemy thanks to the system, had decided to train his newly acquired refining skills.

He was eager to put his skills to the test because if the newly acquired skill was as effective as the information the system had downloaded into his head, which was easy to remember, he could accelerate his plan to become rich.

He spent several hours moving from one point to another in the market and eventually obtained only two out of three ingredients.

It wasn\'t that the third ingredient was difficult to find; the problem was that there was only one left, and he was currently competing with another person to get it.

Yes, he was currently in front of a stall selling various items, including some medicinal herbs.

And the Refreshing Herb, an herb easy to find in some parts of the forest, had now reached almost 15 silver coins.

15 silver coins !

Ethan\'s heart bled just thinking about the fact that the herb he wanted to buy had risen in price, reaching 15 coins.

At this point, he was no longer willing to buy it.

He could only retreat and curse the person who had bought it, or at least he would have liked to, but he didn\'t even know precisely who the person was.

Next to him, the person who had just bought this ingredient took it and left as if nothing had happened.

The said person was wearing a brown hooded cloak that hid their body features, but Ethan was sure it was probably a girl.

\'Tch, if you have so much money to spend, why not go directly to the Medicine Pavilion to buy these ingredients?\'

He thought irritably as he started looking for someone else who had the herb.

Indeed, almost all types of medicinal ingredients could be bought at the pavilion, but the problem was that they cost more than what one might find here.

After another hour of searching, he couldn\'t find it and had to return to the sect disappointed.

Just as Ethan was cursing the person who had taken the Refreshing Herb, the person who had just bought it was also cursing him.

\'That little bastard, I hope he dies a virgin,\' thought the girl under the cloak.

"He made me spend more than necessary for this simple herb," she said irritably.

Just as Ethan had guessed, the person under the cloak was indeed a girl.

She had long, smooth golden hair and emerald green eyes that held a beauty capable of captivating anyone.

It was precisely because her appearance attracted too much attention that she had to disguise herself before coming to this city.

"Haa, I\'ve spent more time here than I should have. I need to hurry, or they will catch up with me," she said as she quickened her pace and disappeared into the crowd.

***

In a large, elegant palace many miles away from the Phoenix Kingdom, a young man dressed regally was seated behind a desk.

He had long golden hair tied back in an elegant jade hairpin and eyes of the same color, showing small traces of fatigue.

Currently, he was buried under dozens of sheets placed in several piles on his desk, reviewing them.

At that moment, a light knock diverted the man\'s attention from the sheet.

"You may enter," he said calmly, as if he knew who had just knocked.

The door opened, revealing the figure of a soldier in golden armor who bowed and saluted the man.

Just as he was about to report what he had to say, he was interrupted by the man\'s calm voice.

"Let me guess, my sister has run away again, hasn\'t she?" he said, anticipating what the soldier wanted to say.

The soldier, keeping his head down, simply nodded.

The man did not seem to have any change in expression at this and continued.

"Haa, where did she run off to this time?" he asked as if he was already used to this.

"The last trace she left was in Sun City," said the guard.

\'Sun City?\' the man thought, raising an eyebrow.

"You mean the capital of the Phoenix Kingdom?" he asked, surprised.

"Yes, Your Highness. The princess managed to procure a long-distance teleportation array.

The array masters, from the traces left by the formation, determined that she teleported to the capital of the Phoenix Kingdom."

"Teleportation array, it seems she has become more skilled in escaping," said the man with a sigh as he stood up.

He moved towards the room\'s door, saying, "Very well, I\'ll handle this matter. There\'s no need to disturb my father with this," he said as he left the room.

"Haa, my dear sister, when will you stop making me chase you from place to place?"
