Chapter 255: Allrounder Ambassador (2/2)
Empress Eleanna grinned. ”Actually, In the palace treasury, there is a medicine called the Heaven Defying Medicine.” Upon hearing it, Yman stopped for a moment. It seemed like the time paused for him.
It was the medicine he was looking for!
Even Sistela who was sitting on his shoulder gasped in disbelief.
When they heard the empress mentioned the Medicine's name, Hilion and Roman had narrowed their eyes at Crimson as they thought that he was so lucky. They knew that Adventurers guild was a big company in the empire, but they did not expect that this person's influence could even make the empress mention that legendary medicine.
”Your Majesty!” Everyone was startled when Crimson suddenly stood up. ”I will trade my soul, just sell to me the medicine!” He declared resolutely. Crimson knew that even though he had one of the major materials to synthesize the medicine, the other materials weren't so easy to find either. It may take him a year to conclude the medicine if he was so lucky to find all the materials. But in reality, it was indefinite of when he will be able to find them all.
That's why upon hearing the empress talked about the medicine. His excitement spans ahead of his thinking.
He even forgot that he didn't have the money to buy it. The Heaven Defying Medicine wasn't a medicine that could besynthesized easily.
Cinde and Rea were speechless at him.
”Fufufu…” Empress Eleanna chuckled. ”I see… let's talk about it later…” she added.
Crimson thanked the empress and hastily said a sorry to everyone before embarrassingly sat back in his seat.
The empress asked them one by one if they had any questions. Hilion raised his hand and asked for further information regarding the ambassador thing.
Empress Eleanna nodded and explained to them that they won't be sent right away. They needed to undertake serious training first. They wondered why the empress wanted to send them as ambassadors and not the real ambassadors. But Hilion seemed to know of the reason. He continued the empress explanation by saying that the Empire of Encantasia wasn't on good terms with the other continents.
”In honesty, all of the major continents were in constant war against each other,”proceeded the empress. ”Even at this moment, the war was still ongoing in the frontline. It is also the reason why we can't send some soldiers to the other continent.” Without a soldier to guard them, most of the current ambassadors refused to partake in the mission.
Although if Empress Eleanna really wanted, she could send them even if it was against their will. But she was not the type of Empress who forced her people to commit something against their will.
Left with no choice, she used the competition to find suitable individuals for the mission.
She needed to find some experts who could be both ambassadors and could also protect themselves while
at the same time act as undercover agents.
Everyone was speechless at the empress's words.
In short, they must become an all-rounder ambassador who could adapt to any situation they were in.
”.....”
Their meeting lasted for 5 hours, but the empress asked them to stay for a bit as she needed to grant them their real rewards from the competition. Excitedly, they followed the empress in the palace treasury.
