227 Called Over (2/2)

”Yes, although I don't know what he wants to talk about.”

Yilio laughed a little and said.

”Don't worry, this is an excellent thing for you and me, but I will let the Supervisor talk about it.”

Although Krune got puzzled again, he decided to wait to see what the Supervisor had to say.

Ramon was already there once they arrive.

”Hello. I guess this is our first time meeting each other, my name is Ramon Forkin.”

Krune greeted him and waited to see what he had to say.

”Yilio already knows this, so it's basically Krune who I wish to pass this information.”

”Krune, I would like to have you and Yilio to participate in the next solar system junior concoction championship.”

Krune was surprised by that request.

”Me? But I'm just a new member and haven't participated in such a competition before.”

Ramon shook his head.

”That's not a problem, the only requisites are that you can't be over 35 years of age, and must have cultivation under the Divine Soul Realm.”

Krune, as always, still doesn't like to get attention.

”I'm sorry, but I don't have any intention of participating in this competition. I'm the type that likes to keep a low profile.”

Yilio heard that, and his mouth twitched.

”Is it something that the 'Crazy Alchemist' should say?”

Krune almost fainted after hearing that. After that event in the examination, everyone started to pay attention to him. Because of his rainbow hair and irises, there was no way he couldn't be recognized. With time, he began to be known as the 'Crazy Alchemist,' much for his displeasure.

That wasn't all. If it was just the event where Krune destroyed the examination room, the others would have forgotten about him already. But during these months, his number of requests accepted, points earned, and the 3 levels of improvement contributed to his famous image. So Krune wasn't regarded as 'Crazy' only because of the examination room event, but mainly because he was crazily charging up in the ranks. To advance 3 Silver Stars in just five months is unprecedented in their Alchemist Organization Branch!

Even Yilio, who was also considered a genius in alchemy, had only advanced a single rank during this time, being at Five Silver Stars at the moment.

Krune then looked at the Supervisor and said.

”Anyway, it's not like I wanted all this attention. But if I participate in this competition, it would get even worse, so I prefer to refrain from doing so.”

Krune turned around and was just about to leave when suddenly, Ramon made a comment that made his steps froze in place.

”I know that you have been checking for the price of the Elemental Path Stone. What if I say that if you agree to participate, I will give it to you for free? That way, you can use your points in another item or get a second one.”

Krune turned around and asked.

”Are you for real?”

Krune had been afraid that if the Elemental Path Stone didn't work, he would have spent his point for nothing. But if he can get one for free to test first, that would be the best! Krune then started to ponder whether he should accept it or not.

Ramon noticed Krune's struggle and decided to strike the iron while it was hot.

”In addition, I will give you an electronic token that will allow you to buy the items available in the reward system with a 20% discount.”

Krune's eyes lit up!

”Deal!”

More important than his 'low profile life,' is his capital! The more he can save, the better it is!

Yilio, on the other hand, just shook his head.

'To think that an alchemist wouldn't want to participate in the competition. If the other members in the Branch hear about this, would they kill this guy straight away?'
