Chapter 394 Idiot! So what if I hit you?

Thaddeus's disciple, of course, remembered Alice.

Most importantly, Thaddeus had instructed before he left that if Alice were to visit the shop again, no matter the time or reason, he should be informed immediately.

"Oh my! It's Miss Alice. Please wait a moment, I'll immediately inform my master. He should be here soon." Thaddeus's disciple, not daring to delay, quickly asked the staff to warmly entertain Alice and her group, leading them to the rest area and serving them the finest coffee.

He then rushed inside, took out a communication crystal, muttered to himself, and the crystal faintly glowed. After conveying the message, the crystal lost its light.

This was how Soulmancers communicated.

The thought is transmitted through the communication crystal to connect with the intended person, which was more efficient than making a phone call or video chatting.

There were no issues like poor signal, and Thaddeus would directly hear his disciple's message in his mind, leaving no room for missing information.

After returning to his Guild the previous day, Thaddeus had presented the divine pill given by Alice, which was originally intended for Ares, the President of the Pantheon Guild.

However, after much research, the entire Guild was baffled about the effects of the divine medicine.

Even if it was a divine pill, it couldn't be consumed recklessly without knowing its effects.

Thaddeus was also intimidated by Alice's reputation yesterday and forgot to ask about the pill's effects, so he had specifically instructed his disciple before leaving. n--o--V()e-/l)-B))1-.n

As they were at a loss, the message from the Mystic Attic arrived.

"Old President, that Alice has returned to the Mystic Attic. Why don't you come with me to see her?" Thaddeus relayed the message to Astraeus after receiving it.

Astraeus pondered for a moment and asked, "The Alice you're talking about is a young-looking lady, right?"

Thaddeus nodded and replied, "Yes, Alice indeed looks like a young lady in her twenties."

Astraeus further inquired, "Is there a young man with an impressive demeanor accompanying her?"

Thaddeus nodded, "Are you referring to that 'Pretty boy'? Indeed, he does have a notable presence."

Slap!

Astraeus suddenly struck Thaddeus across the face with a sharp slap.

Dumbfounded, Thaddeus stammered, "Elder Astraeus, why did you hit me?"

William had mentioned that the pill she crafted the previous night was merely of Legendary level.

And this furnace was also Legendary.

Although both were of the same quality level.

But one crucial distinction was apparent – hers was a pill, while this was a furnace.

It was like comparing an egg to a hen that could lay eggs - a trade only a fool would accept.

"I do like this furnace, but I only have this one pill. Would you consider the exchange?" Alice said, presenting the pill.

Astraeus took the glass vial, opened the cork to inspect it, and murmured, "A Legendary-level pill?"

Hearing this, bystanders doubted the trade would happen.

After all, no one would typically trade an alchemy furnacea for a pill of the same quality.

Astraeus simply asked, "Of course, we can exchange, but could you tell me what the effects of this pill are?"

He wasn't truly concerned about the pill's effects,the question was more of a formality.

Because of William, Astraeus was prepared to exchange the alchemy furnace for anything Alice offered, as long as she liked it.

Alice, surprised that Astraeus was actually willing to make the exchange, hastily explained, "This pill is called Serenity Elixir. Its main effect is to calm and stabilize the mind. It's used when accumulating a certain level of energy and needing to break through a specific level barrier, or to address mental disturbances caused by special reasons or accidents."

Astraeus's eyes lit up with excitement. "Really?!"

He couldn't contain his excitement.

The reason he hadn't allowed his soul to enter the Divine Realm was precisely because the current leader of the Pantheon Guild, Ares, was suffering from severe mental instability.

Now, with a pill specifically addressing this issue, it was worth trading not only the Legendary alchemy furnace but even adding a few magical artifacts.

Others might think the trade was a loss, but if the pill could truly save Ares, any calculation would deem it worthwhile.

After all, what use was a great alchemy furnace if it couldn't produce a specifically needed medicine?

Alice was confident about the pill's effects, as William had informed her. She nodded affirmatively, "Yes, the effects are accurate. There's no need for me to deceive you."

"Then, thank you very much." Astraeus bowed deeply to Alice and then to William.

He believed that William, knowing the difficult situation of the Pantheon Guild, had deliberately sent Alice with the pill to exchange for the furnace.

Seeing the elderly man bowing to her, Alice was taken aback and hurriedly stepped forward to support him, saying, "Elder Astraeus, there's no need for such formality. I'm already fortunate that you're willing to exchange the furnace with me. I should be thanking you."
