Marshal Pill Royale pagoda

"Hey Rose! Where are you? Rose? ah- She is out I guess- well, let's get started with this alchemy book, Rasa-Sastra, the name sure sound epic – can you tell me something about this book?"

"[System: Rasa-sastra is the ancient Alchemy-Text or record ever existed and was written by the greatest alchemists of all time, the Methods used are the most genuine and perfect creation by the Author]"

"Y-you just made me nervous you know! So, does this means that the existing methods of alchemy are not complete?"

"[System: Correct]"

As Aarav started comprehending the alchemy Book, he found that the normal comprehension ability using only the mental power is not enough so one need to comprehend Rasa-sastra techniques and methods by reading and performing them inside the conscious-gap to grasp the perfect knowledge, to do so one's heart and mind should be in sync with each other, a small amount of distraction can ruin your Mental-Alchemy practice.

After 5 hours*

"wh-ha-hah- I was only able to grasp a little of this book? That was way harder, it feels like I performed alchemy millions of times, it's really difficult! - hey so, how much knowledge I grasped?"

"[System: 3% of total book is Origin-order mid rank alchemist]"

"nice! Origin order mid-stage, and not even a day has passed, he-he!"

"what are you laughing about?" Rosaria asked

"Hey, Rose when did you come back?"

"it's been 3 hours maybe, I went out to buy some rations, I already made the dinner, would you like to eat?"

"yeah! I am hungry, let's go!"

"Alright, I will get things ready!"

"I also need to make some money, the current amount is not enough, cultivation also requires a lot of resources and those little shits won't pay me at all, maybe I should try my luck at Marshal-pill Royale pagoda auction tomorrow, I should auction some drops of Deity-Neer Ale, it should make some profit!"

"master - come fast or food will get cold."

"Aye- coming!"

Though cultivators don't require food very frequently but Aarav really likes to eat dishes made by Rosaria, she can be considered a great A-Grade Chef.

Marshal-Pill Royale Pagoda popularly known as Pill-hall in the Berifall city, they also conduct large scale auctions and are one of the powerhouses of the city and is a branch of The 'Great-Marshal Royale Pagoda' in Continents-Capital, the owners are one of the 12-Great families in the capital surnamed 'Arkwrights', they have been studying Alchemy for generations and are known as the 'Pill-Lords Arkwrights'.

Pill-Hall in the town is a Neutral-force and provides alchemy services to everyone, though exclusive alchemy services are considered very hard to obtain as they were rarely provided, that also only in exchange for valuable treasures.

Its the morning, Aarav is getting ready to visit The Pill-Hall;

"Rose! I am going out, ok!" he shouted while running

"Oh-h-h-kk! Mm-!" in a sleepy voice

Aarav covered his face with a cloth mask and a long brown robe to hide his identity and went inside the Pill-Hall;

One of the male employees came and said;

"good morning, Sir! Do you need anything, I can help you" he said while rubbing his hands.

"No need! I heard there is an auction today, I have an item I would like to auction, call your Higher-ups!" Aarav replied in a deep voice

"Do you have an Invitation to attend the auction?"

"No! I don't."

"ha! There are just too many like you out there, you look like a beggar, and still I was showing you courtesy but you want to Auction something here, you should know only treasures are auctioned here, not junks- so turn back and get the hell out of here!" he shouted in an arrogant tone

"Ah, is this how Pill-hall treats their customers!"

"Pill-Hall shows respect to only those who deserve it and beggars are not allowed here."

"What makes you think that the item I own is not a treasure? And that I am a beggar?"

"well, your attire gives away all."

The people in the hall started giggling;

The young master of one of the influential family surnamed 'Verli' was passing through, he saw the scene and commented;

"well! Looks like even dogs are allowed to enter Pill-hall now, huh Mr.!" He said with a smug face

"ha-ha! If it isn't Young master Derese M. Verli, please come inside - hey beggar get aside, please come in young master, he-he!" the worker hurriedly went to greet him

"well! Dogs are much better than donkeys, so I guess am fine!" Aarav replied calmly

"Did! He just called young master Derese A donkey!"

The people around started laughing;

"You all shut up!" Derese shouted "and you wanna die! How dare you talk to me like that." He replied while staring intensely.

Aarav didn't say anything, he stood there quietly because he didn't want to make a big scene that could attract a lot of attention and he might have to give up and leave;

Cause of all the noise and disturbance the manager of the Pill-Hall 'Vorin Ulric' set foot in.

"Just what is happening here, so many unnecessary noises?" He yelled

"hey isn't that the manager Vorin, what is he doing here?"

"Sir Vorin, it's that beggar, he is making the scene and is saying he wants to meet a higher-up, when I said no, h-he started lashing out, here Young master Derese was also helping me get him out of here!" the worker replied while smirking and thought;

*with this I would gain young master Derese's favor.*

"Young man! This is not the place where you can come and do want ever you want. Give me a proper explanation or you might not get out of here in one-piece!" he said while glaring

"ha! I just came here to auction an item and I didn't make any kind of scene here, it was this guy who started calling me a beggar and was kicking me out without even checking my item, well I have seen the courtesy of The Pill-Hall so in future I will be more careful not go near you lot!" Aarav replied as calmly as possible

Vorin thought that the speech is well mannered and is quite confident so its better to check as to what he is carrying on him,

"hm-mm, I would like to see your item and also if what you said is true then proper action would be taken against him, now- please can you show me!"

"well, you might not be able to appraise it, but whatever!"

And Aarav gave a normal-looking vase closed with a cork filled with 5 drops of 'Deity-Neer Ale' to Vorian, as he took and smelled it the aura it radiated was enough for him to tell that this was way above all the treasures he had ever seen in his whole life, he felt that it was so strong that if he opened the lid the whole room would be filled with the unimaginable amount of energy, he was surprised and he instantly replied;

"O-oh, Great sir! Th-this i-is - p-please come with me, p-please! I need to take this to Hall-Master or elder for further investigation, I-I really am not eligible to appraise it! Please follow me." He said while sweating

"Manager Vorian, T-this wha- "

"You shut up! I will deal with you later, just you quietly wait here" Vorian shouted at the worker,

the worker was terrified, while Derese Quietly left from there,

"Please, great sir! Follow me."

Aarav followed manager Vorian on to the 1st floor; they went inside the room, the sight was truly magnificent, each and everything inside the room was a treasure and decoration was to the point;

"I will go inform the Hall-master, till then please have some tea!"

"Alright! I will wait here."

Vorian rushed towards the Room of Hall-master and knocked,

"Come in!" the voice came from inside

He went inside the room, there were 3 other people sitting beside the Hall master, all of them were Elders of the Pill-Hall, The meeting for today's auction was going on, the highest one there was a man with white hair and long beard he was the Grand elder, he said;

"what happened? Can't you see how busy Madam hall-master is? Today is the Auction of the year, so keep it short!"

The Hall-master of the Pill-Hall is the Young lady, her face is covered with a veil, beautiful pair of eyes and black hairs, she is wearing a red dress which enhances her white complexion;

"We still don't have any item that can be considered a very-valuable treasure for today's Final auction, though they are some which are good, but not very convincing, so don't waste my time and speak," she said

"I-I met a customer who wants to Auction an item, maybe you should take a look! In my opinion its a high-grade treasure."

"it better be!"

Vorian gave the little vase to her and just as she took the vase, she was startled and instantly opened it, the huge amount of Dense prana filled the room;

"wha-what is this thing? Wh-who brought this?" She shouted

The elders and the Grand-elder were shocked, they all made a very staggering expression;

"t-this is way above any treasure I have ever seen, just what is this? the word high-grade doesn't even qualify here!" Grand-Elder said

"yes t-this aura is way too thick, just who is the owner?" said the 1st elder

"who is the Expert? take me to him now, this is j-just extraordinary!" She said

"yes! He is waiting in the Emerald-Room!"
