Chapter 1071: Enraged Party (1/2)
Davis recalled Claudius Alstreim person won third place in the Alchemy Exchange, therefore becoming the first disciple of Grand Elder Lloyd Alstreim in alchemy. Despite how he behaved, Davis knew that he possessed a status that would make people suck up to him.
The people who called themselves youngsters despite being more than fifty years old, some being above three hundred years old, were all seated according to their respective cultivation bases. They were part of the younger generation as long as they were within four hundred years old.
Their ages didn't matter. Therefore, they were seated from the back to the front, ranging from the lower cultivation base to the higher cultivation base respectfully, while the ones with the higher cultivation base sat closer to their leaders in individual seats.
Of course, the youths who possessed greater or uncommon status like Claudius Alstreim always got their way and sat closer to the leaders they were closer with since most of these characters were not from the Burning Sea Brigade or the Brilliant Flame Corps.
Looking at these youths who gritted their teeth in anger and envy while looking at Claudius Alstreim, Davis jested, ”Perhaps you'll be soon buried under a mountain, no?”
”Hahaha! Alchemist Davis got that right!”
Davis laughed back as their eyes imperceptibly flashed. Claudius Alstreim not only seemed to come from a humble background but also humble on the surface. However, Davis knew that he was a prideful person and that pride wouldn't come out unless provoked.
It was a trait he liked in a person's character, whether it may be a woman or a man.
”Now all you of be seated.” Davis regally gestured before he walked back towards the dignified seat beside Evelynn on the sofa.
The youths all responded with a nod as they sat, and Claudius Alstreim returned to be seated with Ravalat Alstreim on the sofa. After all, he was also an alchemist of the Brilliant Flame Corps. He did indeed possess the capability of sitting side by side with Ravalat Alstreim.
Davis sat beside Evelynn and gave everyone a sweeping glance; his gaze constantly memorized the faces present here. The people who knew that they were being observed subconsciously straightened their back, especially the women, as they tried to make themselves seem more attractive and feminine.
He smiled, ”Since all of you seem to have come bearing gifts, I wonder for what reason you all seem to be congratulating me?”
Ravalat Alstreim instantly stood up from his seat, ”Of course! A Law Manifestation Stage Cultivator who has comprehended a Superior Law Manifestation, and that too by practicing the formidable Lightning Laws!
”Not to mention becoming a King Grade Alchemist! All this from a man who is lesser than a hundred years old! ”
”If such a person can't be congratulated, then who are we to receive praises from others!?”
Ravalat Alstreim passionately spoke before he awkwardly laughed, ”In front of Alchemist Davis's achievements, I'll feel too embarrassed to be even praised by my own mother!
”Don't you feel the same, Kayan Alstreim?” His awkward smile turned into one of shrewdness.
Kayan Alstreim's expression imperceptibly fell.
If he were to say no to this, it would be like saying that he was far superior and talented than Alchemist Davis.
He knew that he is currently powerful because of the age gap, and if Alchemist Davis were to reach around three hundred years like him, he would find out difficult to match the other party's prowess.
Kayan Alstreim forced a smile, ”True... If Alchemist Davis doesn't deserve to be congratulated by all of us in the same few generations, then all of us don't deserve the praises that we received in these years of cultivation.”
”Haha... You are all too humble...” Davis chuckled a bit before his eyes landed on a particular person.
”Then, Weiss Alstreim, have you also come to congratulate me?”
Everyone's gaze instantly landed on a person who sat at the back. They narrowed their eyes as they watched him. They were confused as to why he was here in a low-key manner but also didn't want to needlessly provoke a beehive that would end up inviting a calamity for them.
