"What are we waiting for, let\'s go and register Ash as an Alchemist." Leo said to the others. Since they have already been introduced by Ash about the things that one needs to know about the Alchemist Association, then it\'s time for them to do what they were intending to do here, specifically to register Ash as an official Alchemist.
"Okay!" Ash nodded her head, feeling delighted about the thought of officially becoming an Alchemist. She quickly proceeding towards a counter, intending for those people that wanted to register and officially become an Alchemist.
Leo and the others followed behind, curious to know how the Alchemist Association conducts their test for those that wanted to become an Alchemist.
Unlike the counter that sells Alchemist products, this specific counter they were walking towards right now doesn\'t have any people. It was really surprising to see such a thing because they have seen a lot of Alchemists a while ago, which simply shows that there should also be a lot of people that want to become an Alchemist.
It\'s really contrary to what they were thinking as it was only them walking towards this direction.
Soon arriving in front, a really beautiful female elf wearing a tight white receptionist uniform quickly greeted them.
"Hello, Foreign friends! I\'m Ellen, one of the receptionists of this branch headquarters of the Alchemist Association. How may I be of help to you?" Ellen quickly asked.
Further behind everyone, Sebastian was immediately attracted by Ellen\'s beauty as soon as he laid his eyes on her. He turned to look at Dan beside him and whispered, "Do you think if I chase her there would be a chance?"
"Of course. Don\'t you know, Elves especially likes strong people." Dan whispered back.
"Ohhh..." Sebastian nodded his head before turning to look in front once again.
"I want to register to become an Alchemist!" Ash quickly replied, the excitement was evident in her voice.
To be honest, Ash had long been wanting to register herself as an Alchemist officially. But due to the main reason that she lives at Twilight Forest with almost all of her time fully focusing on protecting the Eclipse Village, she wasn\'t able to register herself as one.
Aside from that reason, Ash was also afraid of registering as an Alchemist in a Human territory because of the risk that Emperor Yuta might find out about it and would then come at her.
But right now, it is a different story. This is the territory of Elves, which means that even if Emperor Yuta is a powerful Emperor, he would only have a limited influence and power in this place. Not to mention, there is also no longer any need for her to keep on protecting the Eclipse Village as they are now living in a safe place, the Heart City.
So now that she was finally given such an opportunity by Leo, Ash quickly wanted to grab it and not waste any more time.
"And how about all of you?" Ellen asked Leo and the others behind Ash.
"Oh, we are only here to tag along with her. We are curious to know about the Alchemist Association, so is it alright for us to watch how you will conduct a test for her?" Leo replied.
"Of course, it is okay! We welcome anyone that wants to know more about the Alchemist Association." Ellen said before letting out a soft chuckle. She walked out of the counter and said, "Come with me this way."
Seeing this, Leo wanted to ask about something, but Dan suddenly arrived right beside him and whispered something. Soon, he nodded his head and signaled Sebastian to go on.
"Wait, is it really alright for you to personally guide us?" Sebastian quickly asked as soon as he saw Leo\'s sign. He continued, "What if there would be more people that will want to register and become an Alchemist?"
Ellen paused on her tracks as she turned to look at Sebastian, "No worries, today there should only be her that would want to register."
"Why? Is today special?" Sebastian quickly raised another question.
"Oh, you actually don\'t know what today is?" Ellen dubiously replied. She asked, "Did all of you perhaps only arrived today?"
Sebastian scratched his head and replied, "Yeah..."
"Hmmm," Ellen nodded her head in understanding. She explained, "Today is actually the beginning of the Emerald Event! It\'s a yearly event hosted by the Evergreen royal family that will last for an entire month."
"Emerald Event?"
"Emerald Event is an event where all the participants can form a team or work independently to catch Magical Beasts and bring them back to the Emerald City. Each Magical Beasts is equivalent to a point, and the top 100 people or group with the most points at the end of the month would have the chance to participate in Emerald Elven Battle Competition. This is the final event where one would fight against another to become the champion." Ellen explained.
"What\'s the price?" Sebastian quickly asked.
Seeing this, Ellen can\'t help chuckling at Sebastian. She replied, "There are 5 prices for the Emerald Event. The first four prices would be, 10,000 gold coins, a 5th Star Evergreen Plant, a 20% discount for an entire year on everything in the Emerald Tree Kingdom that belongs to the Evergreen royal family, and 10 sets of the Evergreen armor. As for the ultimate price for the top 1, it would be a Magical Taming book of the 9 Star level aside from those prices I\'ve mentioned earlier."
"For the Emerald Elven Battle Competition, the prices weren\'t still announced yet. But most likely it would again be something really good."
"Th..." Sebastian wanted to ask another question, but Ellen quickly interrupted him, seemingly already knowing what it was.
"The prices last year was a chance to cultivate in the Emerald Tree for an entire week, 10 Elven Flyingboats, 50 tamed Griffins, 100 sets of the Evergreen Armor, 100,000 gold coins, and the last but not the least, a chance to establish business cooperation with the Evergreen royal family." Ellen finished with a smile.
Hearing this, Leo\'s interest was immediately piqued. Both the Emerald Event and Emerald Elven Battle Competition were something that he really needed right now.
A chance to become more powerful, Elven Flyingboats, Griffins, equipment, money, and lastly, a chance to establish a business relationship with the Evergreen royal family was one of the few things that he intended to do here.
Aside from that, winning the competition, or even just placing on a top spot, would also give them fame, which would, in turn, attract people to join them.
If he can win this battle, then he would be able to quickly proceed to the next territory, hence shortening the time required for them to arrive at Aurora Empire.
However, based on what Ellen had just said, there should be a lot of powerful people and forces that had participated in this event. Not only from the Emerald Tree Kingdom, but also from the other nearby territories. After all, the prices that were offered last year were really worth it to win the competition. So, most likely, it should also be similar for this year. Or even more, that is if the Evergreen royal family wants to improve their competition even more than last year.
"Anyways, let\'s quickly proceed with the Alchemist test, shall we?" Ellen said as he motioned for everyone to follow after her.
"Okay!" Everyone nodded their heads before quickly following behind Ellen.
Soon, they arrived outside a huge room with a big glass window that allows everyone to see what would happen on the inside.
Ellen suddenly turned to look at Ash and asked, "What kind of Alchemist products do you know?"
Hearing this, Ash can\'t help feeling embarrassed as she hesitated whether she should tell Ellen her reply. But in the end, she decided to just say the truth and not waste any more time, "To tell you the truth, I only know how to concoct poisons. Would it be alright if I make one?"
Concocting poisons was the only thing that Ash knew about, at least for this very moment. It was simply because concocting those conventional potions like healing potions were somewhat useless for the life she was living in the past. She used poison in order for her to free herself as a slave, to escape from the hands of Emperor Yuta, and to survive living in the Twilight Forest. For her, poison is what saves and protects her and those people living in the Eclipse Village.
Ellen was immediately intrigued after hearing Ash\'s reply. She really didn\'t expect to see someone that walks the unconventional path of being an Alchemist.
"It is alright," Ellen nodded her head and continued, "Is this your first time registering to become an Alchemist?"
Ash nodded her head.
"Okay," Ellen smiled before opening the door of the huge room and motioning for Ash to walk inside.
Before walking inside, Ash turned to look at Leo, seemingly asking for encouragement from within her beautiful eyes.
"I believe in y... No, we believe in you!" Leo said with a smile.
Cassandra and the others also sent their encouragements one by one.
Once that was over, Ash then walked inside the huge room before being followed after by Ellen.
