Chapter 101 (1/2)
”The profession of Alches that are of little worth by the potions but also…”
Every single person present here wore thick hoods covering their heads like a bunch of crianised by the Alche affair It wasn't only Sae-Jin who thought like this, but his coht so as well, judging by how often she yawned out and sighed deeply as the proceedings continued
”Just when is this going to end?” (Sae-Jin)
The reason why he attended this conference as the Master of the Guild and not as the Goblin Alchemist, was rather simple
The efforts of the Goblin Alchemist had stirred up the other Alcheh an unprecedented booht now And so, with a surplus of potion supplies locally, he was planning to export to overseas es
”…Please wait for a little while longer It'll be our turn soon to announce the 'innovative new plan' of the Goblin Alchemist As soon as that's done, we'll leave” (Hazeline)
He continued to yawn out while waiting for their turn to come And so, five minutes passed by, then ten minutes, then another twenty… his valuable ti away
”There is currently a certain Alche a lot of attention from all over the world, and he is the Goblin Alche us here have either called hiacy, or as the revolutionary of the Alchemical profession”
”Well, I should get going now When I call for you, Mister Sae-Jin should coe and read off the script we prepared before” (Hazeline)
Hazeline lightly tapped Sae-Jin's shoulder and while lowering her head, disappeared off to somewhere
”And noould like to welcoer of the Yoseon Alchee”
Hazeline walked up on the stage As Alche loud ruckus, not one of theazes of envy and jealousy towards the stage
”Ke, keum”
Her entire body hidden under a thick robe, Hazeline surveyed the surroundings for a bit before sing down her saliva
”…H, h, h, hello E, e, e, e, everyone”
…And then, a catastrophe began unfolding
Hazeline and Ki the Goblin Alchemist's potions overseas As expected of a Dark Elf who had never stepped on a stage in front of so many people, Hazeline's speech was all over the place, full of stuttering and going off topic constantly But since it was seen as a nor, Alchemists simply accepted the presentation without much problem
”Your new car is really nice and comfortable” (Hazeline)
After safely (?) negotiating her way out of the se ho here, there and everywhere of the car's interior and ad it
”…You think so?” (Sae-Jin)
”Yes You ood choice Isn't this model from a famous brand?” (Hazeline)
He s Not only was the brand very famous, this particular model had such a low production volume, it was very hard to buy one… but he didn't feel the need to say this out aloud
- Knight Jin Seh-Hahn has ascended to low Mid Tier…
When Hazeline's curious fingers touched the stereo, the news about Jin Seh Hahn leaked out, causing Kim Sae-Jin to quickly switch it off
”We are hearing a lot of that guy's neadays” (Hazeline)
”See that makes me curious whenever I am with Miss Hazeline…” (Sae-Jin)
He glanced at the perfect side profile of her face and carefully changed the subject
”Mm? What is it?” (Hazeline)
”Ah, the thing is…”
”But Mister Kim Sae-Jin, are you really in a position to be curious about other woht you're no different from a married man now?” (Hazeline)
Hazeline replied while sh and concentrated on driving instead
As an aside, theidely known by everyto Yi Hye-Rin's testiue' type of incident
”Hahat, I was just kidding It's a joke Well, in any case… I'uess it's fine What are you curious about? You can askAfter all, Sae-Jin is my benefactor and all” (Hazeline)
At those words, Sae-Jin glanced at her once more
”Well, Miss Hazeline You are… a Dark Elf, yes?” (Sae-Jin)
”Yes, that's correct” (Hazeline)
”But…” (Sae-Jin)
”…Ah” (Hazeline)
Before he could finish saying as on his ured it out
”My skin You are curious about that, yes?” (Hazeline)
”…Yes”
There were three types of Elves out there - regular Elves, High Elves, and Dark Elves
Here, the regular Elves referred to those beautiful beings known in the eous facial features, as well as smooth and supple limbs
Next was the High Elves Also sometimes referred to as 'noble' Elves, they possessed rich and pure bloodlines and commanded admiration and respect from other Elves
Finally, Dark Elves Not only they preferred darker places, their skin tone was also darker than other Elves, so they were called Dark Elves
”Mmmm…” (Hazeline)
Seeing Hazeline's creased brows as if this question was greatly troubling her, Sae-Jin ended up sing down his saliva Maybe it was because of curiosity, the words You don't have to tell me if it's too troubleso completely
”…Do you wish to know?” (Hazeline)
”Oh, that… well” (Sae-Jin)
He deliberately hesitated Hazeline deeply stared at hirin broke out on her lips
”Since the Goblin Alchemist says he's curious… It's actually simple, really I brewed a certain potion, you see” (Hazeline)
”Pardon?” (Sae-Jin)
”You know, a potion A potion A potion that whitens the skin I al but still, I ended up with this pale skin” (Hazeline)
Her words were difficult to understand, but on the flip side, he could accept some part of her explanation After all, she didn't question him too much and believed hi a potion to grow taller and stuff back then
”But why did you create a potion like that? Surely, Miss Hazeline would have been plenty beautiful with a darker skin tone…” (Hazeline)
”Mister Kis today” (Hazeline)
Sae-Jin tried to inquire a little bit further but Hazeline cut hi a clearin the tone of her voice
The topic of conversation then changed back to their daily lives; did he and Yu Sae-Jung move house, no they didn't; howcontinued, before long they arrived in front of Hazeline's house While inwardly praising its capability that , Sae-Jin parked the car
”Take care” (Sae-Jin)

”I will Thank you for your help again Ah, right You still reain in teeks tiotiate with the overseas contact, the one suggested by you Looks like we'll have to fly over to the USA” (Hazeline)
”…Huh?”
At this unexpected revelation, Sae-Jin went blank-faced as he tilted his head
”What's the matter?” (Hazeline)
”You mean, I, I need to fly over there on a plane?”
”Of course A proxy officially appointed by the Alcheht I told you this already?” (Hazeline)
