Most acolytes could stay awake for a week without sleeping and this was true for Emery as well. Although there were some exceptions, like doing extremely tiring physical or high demanding mental activities such as meditating in the earth origin stone room for a day straight, for example. That was a very tiring hurdle. However, when Emery's earth elemental affinity had reached a new height, the rush of energy to his body made it so he didn't feel the need to sleep at all.
Once Emery's time was up, he smiled in satisfaction looking at what he had achieved. He was a step closer to reaching rank 6 acolyte.
When Emery arrived to his residence, he immediately summoned the big cauldron in the middle of the empty living room. He asked the personal attendant to get him some tables on the side. Emery then placed the mortar and pestle on top of the table and arranged the tier one ingredients in a neat fashion.
