At this time, Emery was surprised to find that his injuries had healed. He was aware of the extent of his injuries. He would never have followed them to the reception room if he did not want to put up a strong front for Delia’s sake. He had been struggling. However, Philip's seemingly ordinary pill actually healed his injuries. Emery changed his view about Philip. At first, he thought Philip was a young talent and a man worth following. Now, he felt that Philip was not human. He was a god. Only a god could come up with such an amazing pill. Emery stood up and knelt to Philip. Philip was shocked by Emery’s actions. Delia and Aslan were dumbfounded too. Kneeling was an extremely sincere way of expressing gratitude no matter where they were. Philip was confused. He simply got rid of the Pill Guild, but the problem was not completely resolved yet. Why would Emery make such a grand gesture? Philip quickly helped Emery up. Emery looked at Philip and grabbed th
In a nutshell, victory was in sight, and there was no way the Pill Guild would choose to back off that easily. Although Emery knew that they would eventually make a comeback, it was a matter of time. Given enough time, even a piece of metal could turn into a fine sword. “Did you make the pill just now?” Emery solemnly asked Philip. He knew that Philip was that talent. Philip was the one who could lead the Smith Guild to glory. Philip did not deny it. Since he gave Emery a pill, it proved that he had acknowledged Emery. Philip could hardly develop a force on his own. His initial thought was to build his force from scratch. However, that was easier said than done. Although time passed in the blink of an eye to a practitioner, it would take at least several decades to groom a worthy pool of practitioners. Rather than wasting time grooming them slowly, it was better to take over an existing force. Besides, Philip did not intend to take the Smith Guild as his own. He
Delia was a simple and kind person who had a good relationship with everyone, so they were willing to help her when she was in trouble. In the past, the young sirs of each guild would have been here to attack the reclusive guild already, but things were different now. They were in a pickle too, so they could hardly bother about someone else. After reaching an agreement, Philip informed Emery about his pills. As Emery was one of his own now, Philip kept nothing from him. Although the Smith Guild specialized in weapon smithing, they dabbled in formations and alchemy too. However, alchemy was too difficult to master. Practice depended on the individual, but the Smith Guild did not even have a dedicated master in alchemy. At first, the Smith Guild thought that everything was interlinked. As long as they mastered something, they could replicate the same in other areas. However, the difference between smithing and alchemy was extremely huge. On top of that, the members of the
Aslan quickly set up a room with Delia and two other guild members and had a great time. After a while, Aslan finally remembered that he had something to do. Video games were really detrimental. He smacked his head. If he did not get it done today, it might have an impact on things and delay the progress with the reclusive guilds. Aslan quickly put down his phone and went to work. The private chat between Philip and Emery also came to an end. “I’ll leave these pills with you. I’m here to give you something anyway.” Philip handed a large box of pills to Emery. He knew that Emery was his main troop. He could not deal with the Pill Guild on his own. Once the Pill Guild settled down, they would come after him again. Philip could only hold them back for now. Once his pill-making method became public, things might get difficult. There were many young and talented people nowadays, and the pills he made were sold in large quantities. Someone was sure to dissect and st
“It’ll be too late If something really happens. As for the rest, I’ll make other arrangements.” Philip spoke to Emery in secret. He told Emery about selling and auctioning the pills, and Emery was very quick on the uptake. He mastered everything proficiently and was more meticulous about certain things. Philip was very pleased with Emery. Barring any accidents, all the pills Philip made would be sold through the Smith Guild from now on. Philip gave Emery some pills. Since the Pill Guild wanted to seize the Smith Guild, Philip would take over the Smith Guild first. After everything was done, Philip obtained a note from one of the members. “This looks exactly like a scam. Tell everyone not to trust this note or app!” Philip had to admit that the content of the note was very tempting, but he knew it was just a scam. This note was nothing but a scheme made up by the Pill Guild. They wanted to use this method to separate the guild from Philip. This idea was rather naïv
“I decided to go with you to speak to the other guilds. I’m afraid they’ve been brainwashed by now,” Philip said helplessly. He made a prediction and understood many things. Although his fortune-telling ability was not as good as that of the Zucker family, he could somewhat find something. Skeeter seemed a little worried and said in exaggeration that if this matter was not handled well, everything would end in destruction. Philip marveled at Skeeter’s wild imagination. The Pill Guild's objective was not to destroy the world but simply to control the members. Leaders and elders of major guilds would not fall for this trick, but the members were different. They were weak and had limited resources. Young people nowadays could not stay away from their mobile phones, and practitioners were no exception. Philip looked at the number on the phone that was still growing and scowled. At this time, Aslan quietly slipped away from the game he was playing with Delia. He was su
If Aslan had not wasted some time playing games with Delia, he would not have been late. ‘I must find a chance to compete with him!’ Aslan thought, his fighting spirit surging. Fennel did not say a word until they reached the Smith Guild. “Don't think about it, I won't compete with you. I comprehended all my tracking and concealment techniques on my own.” After saying this, he disappeared in front of Aslan. Aslan felt embarrassed, afraid that Fennel had misunderstood his intention. Aslan did not want to challenge Fennel for real. He simply wanted to see who was better between them. Aslan quickly chased after Fennel, trying to explain. When he found Fennel, he was already making his report to Philip. “They're gathered at this location. I didn’t expect them to occupy a cave.” Fennel frowned. They must have taken many lives in the process. “Their wild ambitions are still burning strong. They’ll definitely turn up at the Smith Guild again.” Fennel heard a lot of ne
The Pill Guild was surprised to discover that Philip was not famous in Highford at all, making it difficult to find any information about him. Even Mila Clarke, who looked like a nice girl but was actually a devil in disguise, was more famous than Philip. The people from the Pill Guild quickly found some inside information, which was released by Philip on purpose. The elder of the Pill Guild returned to the cave to report his findings to Maurice. He went to great lengths to get this information. “Guild Leader, I finally figured out the situation!” he quickly told Maurice what he knew. The others stared at him keenly, waiting to unveil Philip’s air of mystery. “He’s just a casual practitioner. He doesn’t belong to any guild at all! His family members are ordinary people in the secular world. They're his weakness!” After saying this, he pulled a woman over. This was a family member of Philip whom he captured after he received the information. The news could easily be
