Emery spent hours in a meditative state, meticulously working to extinguish the heated flames from the newly acquired spirit energy. With each moment of concentration, he sought to consolidate the essence within his core. As the process unfolded, he could feel an overwhelming surge of power coursing through him.

When he deemed the consolidation complete, Emery decided to assess the transformation by checking his updated statistics:

[Emery Ambrose]

[Battle power: 495]

[Soul force: 602]

[Law of Nature: 23%]

[Law of Light: 16%]

[Law of Space: 9%]

[Law of Gravity: 5%]

[Law of Devour: 6%]

[Law of Sword: 1%]

[Law Comprehension: 60%]

With unwavering assurance, she replied, "Of course." Despite the potential hiccup presented by Helena's wood elf origins, Emery recognized the invaluable expertise she brought to the table. Her profound knowledge of wood elf recipes and skills promised a unique perspective that could significantly enhance the offerings of the Merlin shop. Emery was ready to accept her, but fate once again intervened in the form of another unexpected visitor. Winri Lampard, the apothecarist with the divine flame, entered Emery's workshop with an air of determination. She expressed her eagerness to contribute, citing a desire to repay Emery for saving her life.

"I heard you need more artisans; please let me help you," Winri declared, her eyes reflecting a genuine sincerity.

Before Emery could respond, Helena, displaying a newfound assertiveness, positioned herself in front of Winri. With confidence, she proclaimed,

"You are too late, Master Merlin has already chosen me."

Emery observed with surprise as the once reserved and shy individuals had undergone a transformation in their demeanor. The air in the workshop crackled with tension as the two skilled apothecarists locked eyes, each seemingly unwilling to back down.

Winri proved to be no pushover, she met Helena's gaze head-on, she asserted, "Huh!! I am clearly a better choice than you,"

Caught between two talented artisans with their own unique strengths, Emery realized that a compromise was necessary to maintain harmony in his growing team. Stepping in, he defused the tension.

"If you both promise to work together, I will accept both of you," Emery declared, his authoritative tone cutting through the brewing conflict.

Empowered by the addition of Helena and Winri to his team, Emery felt a renewed sense of vigor, akin to a lion granted wings. The collaboration between the wood elf with her unique recipes and the apothecarist wielding the divine flame brought a dynamic blend of skills to the Merlin shop. Karin, their existing companion, seamlessly integrated her talents into the mix. Together, this formidable trio embarked on an ambitious project: crafting a groundbreaking pill that could rival Emery's legendary [180 Celestial Meridians].

In the ensuing weeks, the Merlin shop witnessed an unprecedented surge in activity. Emery, riding the wave of success, began contemplating the prospect of finish the third special job. However, his plans took an unexpected turn when he received a message from Chututlu.

<That woman... She came looking for you>

The reference to "that woman" could only mean Hecate. and the message carried an ominous undertone, suggesting that the Kronos were plotting something significant. With the Earth Moon base nearing completion in just two weeks, Emery sensed that the timing was no mere coincidence.

"That damn Kronos," Emery muttered under his breath. Determined to face the looming threat

"I will give them a proper lesson this time."
