Chapter 1498
Severin exhaled heavily as he prepared to refine the pill. He was working on a relatively straightforward third grade high- rank pill
that required more materials than third–grade medium–rank pills,
He failed midway through his first attempt, and the difficulty was naturally far greater than that of a third grade medium- rank pill.
However, he was not that concerned over those setbacks thanks to Iris ample supply of materials.
The second attempt failed too, but there was stue measure of progress. The orcurred much later in the alchemical process, and
Severin exclaimed, “Not bad! I’m already making this much progress on the second try! Haha! From the looks of it, I should be
able to master this successfully by tomorrow morning at the latest.”
Having sensed the natable improvement, Severin gained confidence and persisted in his refining efforts. Daybreak came, and by
the eleventh refining attempt, Severin was already sweating profusely.
“Rise!” he exclaimed. A smile soon appeared on Itis face as he gently raised his palm and levitated a pill in front of him.”
Success! Haha! Not bad at all, and the color is perfect too!”
Severin chuckled with excitement, eager to share the news with Sheila and the others. However, he decided against it after
some thought. Since he had achieved success and attained the status of a third–grade high–rank alchemist, he thought it wise to
spend ane more day refining to accumulate more of those pills for Sofia’s father, Birk. The surprise would undoubtedly make
both of them very happy.
After carefully storing the pills and taking a half–hour break, Severin continued to select materials for him to continue refining.
The following morning, Severin was about to conclude his work when an unexpected visitor sought him out. The visitor was a
beautiful woman.
“A beautiful woman is looking for you, Severin Maurice and Judith entered the room, where they saw Severin having breakfast.
Severin was
taken aback. He frowned and asked, “A beautiful woman? Who could it be?”
Hall masters such as Rachel and Gracie were beautiful women, but Maurice could not be referring to them because they were
already well–acquainted with Severin’s family.
Judith smiled and said, “Helse, we haven’t met her before, but she is a very beautiful woman, and she’s quite insistent on
meeting you.”
Sheila could not resist making a playful comment. “Tsk, tsk, tsk! Who might this damsel be? Are you going to give us the excuse
that you happened to run into her when you were out on some mission? Sheila teased, glancing at Sofia.
