Banquet

"Master Bennett, long time no see!' Master Mara walked towards Abel and bowed. She looked a lot younger.

"Master Mara, long time no see!" Abel bowed back.

"Do you have any new work lately?" Master Mara looked at Abel with optimism.

"I've been busy with some other things lately, so I didn't make anything new. But I did break through the intermediate alchemy pattern. There are some questions I want to ask you!" Abel replied with a smile.

He skimmed through large amounts of documents. It said that transforming an intermediate alchemy pattern into an elite one was very difficult. Master Mara was very experienced, so she was the perfect candidate to answer.

"Congratulations, you can ask me anything!" Master Mara said with admiration.

She almost forgot Abel was just an intermediate alchemist since he was already recognized as a master alchemist by honor. The skills Abel had shown almost made her feel insecure.
