Chapter 36 - Gift From The Grand Elder (1/2)

After waiting for an hour for the pill to complete the process, Jason couldn't help but asked.

”I believe you must have been into the art of pills making for a long time grand elder, so I want to know if it is possible to make a pill that can cure any illness” asked Jason as he finally have a way to save his mother and since the elder can make a pill for treating internal injuries then there shouldn't be a problem with making a pill for his mother illness.

”There is but the problem is no one has ever been able to make one that could cure any illness” replies the elder as he turns to look at Jason with an awkward smile on his face.

”And I thought you could make one” said Jason in disappointment.

”Is someone close to you sick for you to asked this question” asked the elder.

”It's my mother, she had been ill for a long time and had tried our possible best for a cure but there was never any so I thought maybe you could make one” replied Jason.

”I am sorry that I couldn't be of any help” said the grand elder as he turn his gaze back to the furnace.

”By the way, what were you doing in the beast territory” added the grand elder.

”What were you there that day” asked Jason in shock.

”I happened to be passing by when I saw you trying to shake off the beast. You were lucky that there was a formation protecting the family territory else you won't be standing here right now” reply the grand elder as he stared at Jason waiting for him to speak up.

”Well, I went there to get herbs for my mother's treatment since it is hard for us to afford them in the market”.

”I see, now that you are working for me you won't be short of herbs so don't go into the beast territory anymore” said the grand elder.

”Thank you grand elder” replied Jason with a bow.

”It is nothing besides it is the duty of us alchemists to save the mass from any illness and injuries, so you can treat it as me treating your mother” commented the grand elder.

”Nice one kid, I thought you were going to tell him, but I never knew you were this good at lying without blinking” said the bracelet.

”What other choice do I have other than to lie to him” replied Jason.

While he was talking to the bracelet, the furnace began to bring out steam which signifies that the refining process is done. Getting up from the chair as he went to open the furnace with Jason followed by his side and the moment he opened the furnace, energy busted out with Jason moving back.

”You don't need to be scared, it's just the energy that sips out of the pills” said the grand elder as he cloaks his hand with spiritual energy before picking the pills.

”Who said I was running, I was just making space for you to pick them up” replied Jason in a composed manner.

”But I saw you moving back in panic” said the grand elder.

”I wasn't, so is the pill refining a success” asked Jason with a smile on his face.

'Now he is changing the topic, this kid is really something' thought the grand elder before opening his palm for Jason to see for him.

Now looking at the pills in the grand elder's palm which was sky blue in color, Jason was amazed since it is the first time he is seeing a pill being created.
