Chapter 27: Price For Being Conceited (1/2)
On the same day, after dealing with customers, Kadyn passed the scroll to Elora. The girl looked at him in confusion, and eyed the scroll.
”What is this?” She asked.
”See, yourself,” Kadyn said and walked towards his secret room for practice, of course, without explanation.
Elora eyed his fading back and returned her gaze on the scroll in her hand and opened it slowly. Then gasped in shock. Her eyes widened and her mouth hung open. ”Eight-star healing spell!”
Eight-star spells were a supreme treasure for many noble families in the Upper Town. Many families could only dream about it. Now she has such a spell for herself.
Elora took a deep breath and heaved a long sigh. Kadyn was becoming more and more mysterious day by day.
Where did he get the formula potion formula?
Where did he learn potion making?
What about the healing formula he gave me?
No answer. Of course.
Though she never asked him. Once, he said he would tell everything one day. But when that day would come, who can say?
Elora shook her head, shaking all the distractions off her head. She eyed the scroll with shining blue eyes and entered the Potion Hall.

Kadyn sat at the centre of the formation and activated the Elemental Chaos Formula. Swirls formed around him and vanished inside his body.
He gazed in the far horizon inside the fire pool and saw a star that appeared and disappeared now and then. This was the tenth star on the verge of awakening.
[Energy Points: 464-4→460]
An hour passed but the star was still the same. Appearing and disappearing all the while. Not even a little difference could be seen. However, Kadyn didn't falter and continued to work. He knew this was the last star and it would, of course, take longer than any star took before to awaken.
[Energy Points: 460-4→456]
The period between the blinking of the star decreased and it started to take longer to vanish and smaller to appear. Kadyn thrilled, bursting his confidence.
[Energy Points: 456-4→452]
He placed his entire attention on awakening the star and hadn't realised one more hour passed—this was the time the star awakened.
The entire fire pool trembled and illuminated with crimson light. All ten stars produced amazing glazing burst of light.
All of them burned, mixed with all kinds of fires. There were blue, white, green, yellow, orange and many other colours—it continued to change, never stopping. Though Kadyn had no idea what change in colour implies.
