Chapter 63

"Look. The King don't like you. And Queen absolutely hates anyone and everyone that isn't her immediate family. So it's unlikely that you'll get any funding from them anytime soon." He told the three Wisdoms who were sitting opposite to him in the dark and danky room which smelled heavily of perfume.

It had come as a huge surprise to him when he found out that The Alchemists had other inventions to their name beside the infamous Wildfire. Like the rose perfume and the sented Oil and soap that they sold at a high price to the nobility.

But despite their talent, they were not good at marketing their products and didn't have many clients which resulted in the poor condition in which he found them.

In fact, if no one lend them a helping hand then their guild would die by the end a decade or two.

Which was why the three wisdoms, who were the co-leaders of the alchemist guild didn't talk back to him when he pointed out how fucked up their situation was.

"And you'll be generous enough to hire us boy?" the oldest and crankiest looking man asked sarcastically "Do you think the products that our guild make are cheap. This is not any pigshit you're dealing with boy. This is art. Pure work of art." The man said as he looked hungrily at the jar filled with green fluid sitting in front of them in the desk.

And if he had any doubts about them by pyromaniac before he met them, then he was now sure that they were indeed fascinated with burning objects.

He once again wondered if bringing them to his lands would turn out to be a disaster or not but then decided that he'll just have to give them a remote location where they would be able to experiment with their precious wildfire without putting his people in risk.

"You're in fact correct. I'm being generous enough to hire you." He said and waved his hand to his men who walked up to the table and put down a big and heavy chest which was filled to the brim with gold.

"10,000 gold dragons. For 6 months of your services. And you're get 10,000 more when you arrive in my lands."

The Wisdoms looked at the glittering gold with an insane fascination and he knew that they would be working for him in no time.
