642 Star Alchemist

The news spread out quickly about the events that happened.

But the information that circulated was confusing.

One side would speak of a fantastic mortal genius who had possibly resolved an insidious alchemy fraud that shortened everyone's lifespan.

The other news spoke of the greatest conman in the Floating Continents of a mortal playing the expert.

But even though many eyewitnesses spoke of this, those who heard the tale would not believe it.

This was because Emeros was a mortal, and he only created twelve pills on that day using bizarre ingredients.

He created three batches of pills that used locally grown plants and monsters found in the Valley Below the Lake. But each time he would make a batch of four pills, he would alter the ingredients and the process of it.

With such a ridiculous foundation and the fact that Prince Terenyos also limited the news, it hindered the fame of Emeros.

Valler was standing before two people who were startled at his report.

Before him was the Crown Prince, Prince Rupert Fardur Powenquis. The man called the greatest and known in the Floating Continents as Prince Magnus. The other was the Lord of Assassin Valler, Jezael Crowlord.

"An alchemy technique that even you can't figure out?" Jezael was amazed.

"Regarding alchemy, you would be equal to a Third Star alchemist here! That's equal to a One Star Alchemist in the Continents Above the Sky! You are the Assassin of the Coated Blade! How can you not understand his methods? Does that mean...?!"

"Yes. Because he combines everything, he would be a Star Alchemist back home! He uses a strange Energy Conversion Circle. And this boy... clearly has an Elemental Core! But his Elemental Core of Fire doesn't seem to cause harm to his body! I cannot even locate where the Elemental Core in his body is!"

"A Star Alchemist! A Third Star in this place..."

"Formidable... it seems Alistair has been secretly preparing for his counterattack!" Prince Rupert thought.

"That's not all... I suspect he has... another elemental core! He is using his Fire Core to hide it and shroud this power! I sensed another strange surge of magic would appear from his body. I cannot tell where... But I can sense it!"

Jezael listened and was amazed.

"You rate him quite high."

"If you were there, you would think so too, my Lord. I couldn't understand it. His knowledge and skills are different. He seems to hold little knowledge of what the Floating Continents has. In fact, I would even say his knowledge of this place's ways and paths is rather shallow. But what he has is a whole different set of expertise! It's as if the foundation knowledge of his magic is vastly superior to ours! And so, the basic things that he has is equal to the superior things of ours!"

"So his very body interests you."

"It houses many miracles that I cannot understand. Master... His power in his body is enough to shake the stalemate in our home! This could be our opportunity to rise above all the rest!"

"Kidnapping him would cause a scandal now..."

"That is why I ask the Crown Prince to aid in attacking Prince Terenyos's public image!"

"...I see. You want me to stir the pot even more so that if we kidnap him, Terenyos will be the suspect!" Crown Prince Rupert smiled.

"The Crown Prince truly is the greatest in this land to see that!" Valler smiled.

"This will take at least a few weeks. But if you claim that he is that useful, then we must see what his memory has as fast as possible. The earlier we gain new knowledge, the better. We have to bind him and make him our slave through that magic. His disappearance would be suspicious. He created quite a spark, and you helped him make it a huge thing."

"I had to, my Lord. Prince Terenyos's business is associated with many of your enemies. If we get this Emeros on our side, Crown Prince Rupert will have one less enemy."

"...That's true. So you exalt Emeros since he will be our ally anyway." Prince Rupert nodded.

"Yes. I recommend turning him into a spy. Prince Alistair found this man, so there must be more to him than we know."

"You have a very impressive subordinate, Jezael." Prince Rupert praised

"The Creed of Crows and this man called Valler is not my subordinate, Rupert. Though he seems and acts as one, our positions are actually equal. He acts that way due to orders. In fact, they are actually of higher ranking than our family."

Rupert was amazed.

"Your... lineage does not bear authority?'

"Power bears authority up there. And it is their Lord and master, who is my own Lord and master. The family of the crows have two faces. Since you will soon be part of my family, you will know this. My line, the Pedagog that took you in... We are but the face that is shown. But our family has deeper roots. Valler calls me Lord, for this is but his mission. But don't think me to be higher than himself." Jezael smiled.

Rupert's eyes widened.

"Valler. Go and do as you have suggested. For the Crow!"

"For the Crow!" At once, Valler vanished and became like a blur of feathers blown off by the wind.

The crow's feathers flew out from the top of the tower where the Prince and Jezael sat.

And soon, a crow appeared and flew out in the great distance.

The crow landed atop the rooftop of another high tower, and he reformed into a human.

"Report," Valler commanded.

"Emeros has been retaken into the school. He wanted to return to the Valley Below the Lake, but he had a crowd of great people who followed him. He had no choice but to retreat." The first assassin answered.

"What of the news of his deeds?"

"Prince Terenyos secretly activated a strange magic that destroyed almost every image-recording talismans, stones, and artifacts. We believe that Princess Yara, Prince Charlton, and Princess Lyra were all involved in this magic fluctuation that appeared. With no proof of Emeros's magic, people now claim this to be some crazy con and scheme that Prince Alistair plotted. Those who witnessed Emeros personally naturally refute these accusations. They all believe that it was Terenyos who wiped all images. But most of the people in the city are suspicious of the claims. Since no record of his acts was done, and given his mortal standing, people are choosing to not believe the miracles of Emeros and called all those who witnessed it as fools who believe a grand con."

"As expected. Prince Terenyos will naturally receive aid from those Prince and Princesses. Where is Emeros now?"

"Our tracking has him inside the Principal's Office earlier. But after a while, he left and returned to a private alchemy lab. Our sources indicate he has reserved the room for ten hours."

Valler smiled.

"Perfect. A private lab, huh? It's like he's offering himself to us on a silver platter!" Valler sneered.

Inside the lab of the academy...

Emeros had finished talking with many of the school's teachers. It was chaos. Aside from Master Teacher Zwelus and Zachary, nearly all the teachers had requested to retract Emeros's license for the absurd claims and scandal he had started.

The teachers were now antagonistic towards Emeros and refused to believe Zwelus's testimony.

But Emeros was very calm and kept silent until the Principal dispersed the teachers and spoke to Emeros.

Emeros remained undaunted by the pressure and trouble that the teachers pressed on him and requested access to the lab and brought all the items and materials he had ordered.

But before he started to work, Emeros was once more bringing up the stats of a certain man he shook hands with.

Emeros was rather amazed at the stats of the physician he had met. There was no one who was like him in the Floating Continent. Even the Principal had job levels that were 3 or 4, and this man had stats even higher than him.

"This guy is definitely tied to those in the Continent Above the Sky. This makes him the perfect person to steal my memories! But the problem is that he is an assassin..." Ermeros frowned.

"In any case... I better prepare. With his power, he will surely sift my memories and try to enslave me... Let's hope for the best." Emeros smiled.
