35- 1-star Alchemy Examination. (I)

-

Soon after, the black robed lady named Luzie started explaining to Adel how the examination went.

"To become a 1-star alchemist, one needs to have the theory knowledge, and practical knowledge.

Therefore, the first test would be a meeting between you and a 2-star alchemist. He'll be asking questions that are at the 1-star alchemy grade, so needless to worry..." She was cut off guard as she let out a loud moan.

In behind Adel and Luzie emerged a fat man in his fifties with a belly the size of a small sheep. His clothing was shiny, hinting that he was a member of a higher standing within the alchemy alliance.

The man wasn't particularly tall, but his obesity made him look like a pig.

He grabbed the young lady's buttocks, which made Adel confirm his assumptions - 'So there exist people who like flat girls, huh...'

Adel didn't know that the fat man didn't care whether it was man or woman, as long as the 'little brother' entered the 'house', he would be pleased.

If he did though, he would just get away from him as far as possible.

It's not like he disliked such people, but... if they were to get on such a level of familiarity, the elder might actually touch his buttocks while he was standing, similar to the young lady, which would weird him out...

-

Adel, on the other hand, was completely oblivious to all of this, as his face remained expressionless.

As the man began speaking in a hoarse tone, Adel gave him a friendly nod, causing the other man to return the nod as he started speaking:

"To begin the examination, you must first spend a sum of 10,000 Dracha coins. Wouldn't it be impractical if everyone came running to try their shot to become an alchemist?

Anyway, let's get started on the first test; and besides, I don't have all day." The fat man winked at the lady, making her lower her head as she had a blush on her face.

Yet, shifting one's eyes at her more, it would expose a disgusted expression that's on her face...

-

Luzie was a receptionist at the front desk of the Alchemy Alliance.

Her greatest ambition was to work as an alchemist.

However, she lacked talent, as she couldn't get past the early stage of the first step despite several attempts and the consumption of numerous treasures that advance cultivation.

She had no choice but to do labor at the alchemist alliance, while doing her best in cultivation and obtaining the necessary knowledge for alchemy.

Because it required both theoretical and practical skills, therefore she was near an expert at that.

Working for the Alchemist Alliance may seem inconsequential, but the income was actually pretty good. She'd get paid a percentage for each pill sold, and while the percentage isn't huge, the more pills she sold, the more income she'd get. Consequently, her annual income is usually six or seven times that of those doing the same job.

Besides, the job she was undertaking was unlike any other job others could do...

Despite the good pay, she didn't want to keep working in this job for another day. It wasn't because of the job's hardship, but rather because of her... physical beauty.

She was well aware that she wasn't particularly attractive. Her assets were very minimal, leaving her unable to even sell her body.

Because she was frequently required to stand in front of the alchemy Alliance, receiving customers, a slew of young masters from prominent families would come over specifically to chat her up, making all kinds of ridiculous demands, including requiring her to have a one-night stand for at least a week.

Even if they didn't contact her after that, she would lower the fees a little if they could at least make her happy.

It was difficult for a man to be satisfied, especially with her flat body. As a result, she is sexually frustrated because she is always left behind when they do it.

Even if she went to brothels, she wouldn't be accepted because of her body shape, so she had no choice but to give up...

But after seeing Adel today... she felt that he might be the man that... can satisfy her!

She didn't know how, but she at least wanted to try her chances with this middle-aged man...

But before she could do that, her image had been ruined by the elder man who grabbed her flat buttocks!

-

Adel would be speechless if he knew what she was thinking. But he wouldn't care because there were so many such examples all throughout the place.

And even if he knew, he would think - ' I'm sorry... I won't have a one night stand with you. You give me the vibe that I'll never see you again in my life... like those how those young masters get face-slapped, and never get mentioned on a novel again...'

-

Back to the current time,

The elder man continued speaking as they started walking:

"The first examination requires recalling the medical characteristics of thousands of plants and herb, including the history and premise of alchemy..."

The elder's name was Kaiser.

Soon, the elder told Adel all the information about the examination. He seemed to have gotten a lot friendlier with him, as he sometimes moved his hands closer to Adel's lower back making him frown inwardly...

But he didn't pay much attention to it as he kept moving here and there, avoiding the elder's touch every time it would come close to hitting him.

He didn't know what weird sh.i.t was happening right now, so he kept listening to what he was saying...

-

Soon, they arrived at a hall that had many participants in it.

It seemed like 1-star alchemist examination would take all the alchemists together with only a 2-star alchemist as the questioner; while the 2-star and above alchemist examinations would have a personal 3-star alchemist asking them.

-

As they arrived in the hall, Kaiser ( the elder ) just casually went straight to the room, before he swept his gaze through the room thinking with a grin - ' A lot more potential partners! '

He was a body cultivator, so he coughed and used his Ki to amplify his cough, before he started speaking "I'm sure you're all confident in your ability to take this test!"

"Ah..."

Everyone was surprised as they heard the voice, as they let out simultaneously a startled sound, before they let out an awkward chuckle...

No one dared to say that they were hundred percent certain that they would pass the examination...
