Chapter 154: 154: Rules

With the red scroll in his hand, Lyon smiled at the infinite possibilities in the near future.

"Hmm? Hubby, why are you grinning like that?" teased Ryona while she knew full well of this young man's perverted nature.

"Hehehe, if you want to know, then I will tell you later but first I need to ask a question to Miss Elise," said Lyon before turning his gaze to the little beauty.

With a slight bow and obvious ulterior motive, he asked Elise who was looking at him amusedly. "Miss, no, Elder Elise, will thou enlighten this young innocent eagle with your answer?"

"Hoh~ What might that be? Seeking my wisdom usually comes with an exorbitant price, but I will cast it on you as a token for my apology," said Elise while raising her nose a little bit.

"Is the Alchemy Union, full of beautiful women?"

The room turned silent at that moment. One could even hear the ice sculpture slowly melting due to the average temperature.

"Pfft!" The first one to let out a hearty laugh was the princess who stood in the far back before followed by her uncle.

Kyoko could only shake her head in response toward this little brother of her while Ryona laughed along with the other two.

"I know some perverts in my life but you are probably the most opened and frontal about it boy," said Elise as she threw out a light chuckle.

Lyon rubbed his hand while smiling as he anticipated the answer, "Well?"

"Hmm, I think there are quite a few beautiful flowers in the garden, but you need to get inside first to take a look," teased Elise.

The young man furrowed his eyebrow as he asked, "Wait, then what this red scroll do?"

"Hehe~, it only gives you a chance to enter the examination to be a student,"

(What?! So this is useless?!) thought Lyon. He couldn't say it directly as the little woman in front of him was probably as strong as Kyoko. If she slapped him, it would be unavoidable.

"Alchemy Union is a closed group that only invited people to be the student, it had no age restriction per se, so don't be surprised if you met a grandpa that is as fragile as ash but still a student."

"Well, of course, that was a rare case since even alchemists cannot neglect their own cultivation level or they would not be able to handle higher grade soul flame," finished Elise.

"So that old man over there is a rare case student?" said Lyon while pointing at the fainted old man.

Elise sighed before nodding, "Was a student, there are certain rules to be followed, and I just revoke his studentship."

Lyon was not surprised by her decision to revoke the old man's studentship. If the old man dared enough to gamble their alma mater, then it was a suitable punishment if they lost it.

"But be careful what you wish for, the Alchemy Union is known as a hellish place for the untalented," said Elise with a smile.

Lyon's eyes turned serious as he looks at the elder from the Alchemy Union before asking a barrage of questions.

"Is there a rule regarding a student romancing fellow students?"

"Eh? No."

"Is there a rule regarding a student romancing the instructor?"

"No."

"Is there a rule regarding a student romancing the elders?"

"Eh?! N-no." *blush*

"Is there a rule for the female students to must wear a skirt in the Alchemy Union?"

"No, oh wait. Yes, well not explicitly."

Lyon shrugged his shoulders as he said, "Sounds like heaven to me."

Elise twitched at his response as she thought (This boy is unbelievable).

She suddenly remembered one of her fellow elders that shared their experience of giving the letter of recommendation to a possible candidate. The candidates would be struck with honor and pride and greet the said elder like their own parents or even a god.

However, the reality in front of her was different from their description. The young man was jumping around like a rabbit expressing his joyous fate but not because of honor or pride but because of the chance of flirting with the girls there.

(If he were to enter the Alchemy Union, would it be a blessing or a curse I wonder). She shook off her thought as she focused on the blue pill in her hand.

The bright color of blue proved its stability and she felt a little surge of mana seeping out from the pill.

"This pill is a type of rejuvenating pill, it will heal your external wounds to a certain extent but I can't fully gauge to what extent," said Elise, leading the course of the conversation.

"Oh my, if it were priced, how much would elder think it will be?" asked Rowland with stars in his eyes.

"Hmm, maybe twenty thousand good grade beads give or take,"

"T-t-t-t-t-t. TWENTY?!"

Rowland was shaking on his boots as he heard the estimated price. With the appraiser being an elder from the Alchemy Union, the prize he would put on display would be unnegotiable.

Princess Aelina covered her mouth in surprise as she heard the prize. She knew the currency for the higher worlds was cultivation beads so she could roughly gauge how much was twenty thousand good grade beads were.

(Th-that's almost a quarter of Luderia's treasures!) thought the princess.

*thud

The sound of pair of knees hitting the ground was heard as Lyon furrowed his eyebrows.

"Oh, Great Nephew Lyon! Would you let this humble uncle sold this magnificent work of yours!" the figure kneeling was none other than Rowland, the uncle of Princess Aelina.

(Damn, you are fast indeed) thought Lyon as he saw his begging eyes.

Lyon sighed before he said, "You don't need to kneel, my uncle, take it as a gift from me."

(You goddamn old fox! I can't refuse because I know you would use Aelina to guilt me!).

"Hah! Thank you so much, my nephew! I will pray so that you are blessed with many children alongside Aelina, my beautiful niece!"

*stomp

"Uncle! We are just taking a stroll!" said Princess Aelina with her red cheeks.
