Allegiance

"I am currently short on people. I want you guys to come and work for me. If you do well, you will be rewarded. Giving you the chance to break through the next realm is also not impossible. You see, other than being an Esper, I also have another identity." Aethelwolf showed them his pill fire. 

As the flame of his pill fire illuminated the surroundings, Kazak and the others were stunned. "Pill Fire! He is an alchemist!" 

Kazak was still skeptical about his claim earlier, but after seeing the intense power of his pill fire, his suspicions were extinguished. In his long life, he had seen numerous alchemists, but he had never seen such terrifying pill fire. Just its heat alone almost burned the surroundings. If it weren't for Aethelwolf's command on the pill fire, everything around them would have already been incinerated. 

After a moment of thinking, Kazak took a deep breath and prostrated to show his allegiance. "Kazak greets the lord."
