Night too thousand kilometers from the capital

Built at the feet of a ht toas placed at the crossing point between four of the ion

It housed thousands of people, and despite the lack of walls and governmental authority, it was one of the safest places in the entire planet Untouched by bandits, and beast tribes ever since it had been founded

Despite the relatively soverned the town, emony on the territory around the mountain

Built on the wall of the mountain was the territory of the Navi fae old fashi+oned building

Inside of this building hat looked like a large rooathered around a young girl

This young girl was holding what each and every spectator of the collective's ganized as the prize for the chairl was the same one that had ordered for Alesia to be poisoned, and that had conducted the exchange with Daniel for the perfect fire treasure

Of the people around her, theat the perfect treasure Only an old woman quietly sat on her chair in silence, and observed froive our fae in the poisonous rose” Said a ers blackened by the recent failures in alche

” Why can't our family keep it? I don't understand” Said an extremely short black-robed wo the short woman's words, a stout man with a blue cloak that covered his body from the shoulders down to his feet, said ”Because it's the rules of the poisonous rose The various families will pay us back, but we can't keep the treasure”

”Alana” Said the old woer to say their opinion to quieten down ”Tell e I want to knohat happened”

Alana was, of course, the name of Serf's vicious sister

”Grand went smoothly What else do you want to know?” She responded with a feigned confusion Her voice trerandreatly

The old woive you a few seconds to rearrange your memories and tell me what really happened I won't repeat myself after that”

A shi+ver ran down Alana's back, which lowered her head, and said with fear ”The kid changed the terredient instead of a portion of the money”

”And why is that?” asked the old woman with a low tone

Alana quietened down for a few seconds, then, after gathering soht that I could have saved the cost of the iteuy, so I've used the poison of our family But Serf was there, and cured him”

Her tone was filled with disbelief and distress

”He saved hie to be delayed Fortunately, he didn't reveal that it was his own fae” She then added

The old woman looked directly at Alana's eyes, and said ”Go on”

”He asked for the saliva of a two hundred years old green-skinned snake” Responded Alana plainly

The brows of a few of the oldest people furrowed at the redient

The old woitation in her voice ”Did he say why he was looking for a two hundred years old green-skinned snake?”

Surprised by her granderated reaction, Alana said ”I I don't think so I think that Serfpill for hiht type of materials”

”And do you knohy Serf has used the connections of our family to obtain the saliva of a fifty years old white-scaled snake?” Asked the old wo the old wo with the oldest people in the hall, twisted in confusion

”Aunt” Said the tannedthe attention of the old wo the end of the phrase die out in his throat

”Yes two of the three poisons listed in the notes left by the inventor of the Poison of the Night Blue Thorn My mother” Responded the old woman with a hint of disbelief

”How is that possible? There is no way that Serf could have known exactly which ingredients we know are part of the lost cure” Said one of the ht just be a coincidence”

”Or one of us didn't keep theirof discussion started to reverberate in the room, until finally, the old woman tapped the ar ”Enough!”

She then stood up weakly, and said ”As you all know, of the original recipe of the poison, we have only salvaged four ingredients, and only a s three The reach of the kid's coional, so, it won't be a problem to monitor them Make a list of the locations where the poison samples of ten years old black opal snakes, and red carp scales are sold, and if his group enters in possession of any of the two, report tothe old woman's words, theonly a few of the oldest farand on?” Said Alana with deep confusion
