Chapter 33: Medicinal Herbs (13)

Weekly Chapter (4/5)

Sylverine was absent since she had to report on the alchemist to the Academy.

Damien wondered if Popper took her absence as an opportunity to approach him. He didnt seem to have bad intentions, but Damien had to remain alert to unexpected questions.

The robust Poppers advanced age did not allow him to be on the front lines, but he had keen observation skills due to his experience.

A bad lie would be counterproductive.

He handed him his sword in the scabbard. Popper unsheathed the sword slowly.

He swung the sword in a figure eight. Then he raised the sword toward the sunset.

When his eyes narrowed, Damiens heart fluttered.

Its a good sword.

Popper put the sword away in its scabbard.

Damien, who believed Popper wanted to ask something else, received the sword in silence.

Thank you.

How long have you trained with the sword?

It was a simple question, but really hard to answer. He could lie about his past, but he didnt think he could fool someone with so much experience.

Popper laughed when he saw that he was hesitant.

Hahaha! Is it so hard to admit that you havent learned well yet?

?

Popper patted him hard on the shoulder. Damien looked at him puzzled.

He desired to exploit this rare opportunity to get the most valuable reward.

But if he asked for excessive compensation, he might undermine his own feat.

And he couldnt ask Sylverine for advice.

There was something he needed, but he didnt know if it was appropriate.

Actually, his relationship with this order of knights was limited to the problem created by the mad alchemist. That meant that the alchemist had to compensate him. Posted only on

The knightly order had to help him to take the reward from the alchemist.

I need Griffins blood.

Poppers pupils dilated. He had only requested something reasonable.

He gently stroked his beard in silence.

Griffins blood was an ingredient in a Zverev potion.

There were many medicinal herbs that he didnt know about among the ingredients, so he didnt know how hard it would be to find them, but Wiesel was a place that alchemists visited in search of various medicinal herbs.

Griffins blood was the only ingredient that was not a medicinal herb. There were not many demonic beasts in Wiesel, so he had to acquire it through merchants.

But how could a 16-year-old convince a merchant to fetch an ingredient from so far away? They could just as easily attempt to cheat him.

The knightly order could easily obtain a large quantity of this ingredient.

Poppers eyes sparkled. Even though it was a positive sign, he was a bit overwhelmed.

Looks like you planned something interesting again.

He showed that he had expectations of Damien.
