"Yes, Sir"
*remember something* "That's right, our Lord want to spread a rumors that we were poor and can't afford any foods for our people" *snickering*
"Huh? Why the Lord want to make such rumor? It will harm our reputation" *confused*
*look at Sebastian* *smile sinister* "Did you forget how cunning our Lord was?" *snickering*
*realized* *smile* "That's true."
They are snickering for awhile
"Sebastian, Anything happen while I'm gone?"
*serious* "It's just an old problems. The greedy vassals that only want more wealth and some bandits that suddenly attacking our territory. But don't worry, Sir. The vassals have been handled with Sir Vincent and the Bandit have been handled by Sir Dalton and Sir Shamus"
"How about..."

Everyone in the room startled

"My Lady, I need to check on something. Please excuse me"
*smile* "Go ahead"
Edward and Jared bow to Lydia then leave.
On the way to the workshop
Edward and Jared walking and talking
"How was your journey, Edward? Where were you went?"
"It's just a business trip, nothing interesting happened. I just went to Scapolite and go back"
"So it's a boring trip. Then do you want to come to Blaze City? There are a lots thing that happened in there. You won't get bored in there" *smile malicious*
"Blaze city?" *curious*
"Yeah, I lived there for a few years. It's already like my other home" *chuckles*
"Come to think of it, My Lord once told me that all the members of research team got dispatched to a far away places started from the normal land until the dangerous land"
*frown* "Ugh..."
*smirk* "And with your level, you must be send to the dangerous ones" *snickering*
Jared explode and started complaining non stop.
*burst out* "Huh! You know, the Land in Blaze City are full with fire. If you didn't walk carefully, you'll burn yourself. And it's really hard to find water in there. The monsters in there are all high rank monsters and they're often gone insane because starving. There is also..."
*meddling* "Alright, alright. Shut your mouth, we've arrived"
They have arrived in the Workshop
In the workshop
Everyone from the research team has been busy making various magic item.
*open the door* "Everyone, Sir Edward has come"
Jared open the door. All the members team stop working
"Welcome, Sir Edward" *they said it together with a smile then continue working*
"So where is it?"
*smirk* "Follow me"
Edward follow Jared to the corner of the workshop. There's a lavish magic item on the table.
*amazed* "This communication device is too luxurious. Compared to mine it's like a rock and diamond. And it's too shiny too."
"Of course, I need three days to made this ones"
*shocked* "Usually you just need a day to made a pair of the devices, but you need three days to made this one? Unbelievable!" *disbelieved*
*stare at Edward* "Don't be too shocked. It's for the royalty, of course it need more time to made it." *smug*
*sigh* "I'll save it for now and report it to our Lord tomorrow. Is there any ORDINARY Communication device that have finished?" *irritated*
Edward put the luxury communication device on his storage ring. Edward emphasized the word 'ordinary' because felt irritated. But Jared ignored it.
"There's one that almost finish and one that just in the early steps."
"Then this pair will be own by you and My Comrades, Vincent"
"That guy will have it too?"
"Yes. Wait! That guy?"
"Yeah, he told me that he's the Second Aide our Lord recently hired. Today in the morning, he handled the troublesome vassals complaints in the meeting room. He look like a calm person but when in that room, he's quiet a domineering and scary persons. He made all the vassals on the meeting speechless with his few word"
*astonished* "How do you know that?"
"Well, they are really loud. I just overheard them when passing by"
*smirk* "Interesting, is there anything else?"
Jared quiet for awhile
"Edward, are you going to meet the Lord tomorrow?"
"Yes"
"Let me come too, there's something that I need to discuss with him"
"I'll go there with a guest tomorrow. You can't tag along. Just use the device if you need to confirm something with him"
*suddenly* "Excuse me Sir Jared, this communication device just need the final touch from you" *show the device*
One of the member team approaching them. Jared and Edward turn around
*take the device* "Alright, you can come back to your stall now"
*salute* "Yes"
The person walk away
*look at Edward* "The final step will take 2 - 3 hours, do you want to wait here or come back first?"
"There's not much work left, I'll relax myself and wait here" *sit down*
"Then do you want to try this?"
Jared pick up something and serve it to Edward
*curious* "What it is?" *suspicious*
*start working* "I tried to make a potion, it's my first time made it. Don't worry, it safe I have drank that myself and nothing happened"
"Why are you a craftsman trying to be an alchemist?" *dumbfounded*
Craftsman are a person that made disposable items such as magic items, meanwhile alchemist are a person that made a consumable item such as potions.
*still working* "I'm a genius that can make everything. I can made a potion too if I want it." *smug*
*doubt* "This are not poisonous right?" *look suspicious*
*irritated* *still working* "It's potion not poison! Furthermore how could I poisoning my own friend? How hilarious! If you want a poison, you should ask Tenry about it. He'll gladly make one for you." *mad while working*
"Come to think of it, where is he?"
Edward trying to avoid drink that potions.
*still working* "He is not come back yet. He has answered my letter, but it seem his location are more far away than me. Anyway, don't try to change the topic and try the potion already! How could you doubt me?"
*flinch* "Ugh" *cold sweats*
Edward reluctantly drink the potion
*surprised* "The taste are too strong, it has a warm sensation when you drank it even though the potion aren't hot?" *confused*
*still working* "Of course, it made from the extract of light flowers that only bloom in Blaze City. This flowers originally are materials for explosive tools and not for consumables" *calmly explaining*
Edward standing because too shocked
*smug* *still working* *hmph* "Don't worry, this genius was the one that made it. Nothing will happened at you. Furthermore I already test it myself, how dare you doubt me?"
Jared smile mischievously then glance at Edward and continue working. Edward trying to calm himself and sit back down
*sigh* "You're really crazy, unconsumable materials are used to made a potion? Fortunately nothing happened" *relieved*
*still working* "Other than the warm sensation, do you feel anything else?"
*realize* "That's right. My fatigue seem gradually disappeared"
*still working* "Truthfully I want to make some new tools from the flowers, I have a lots of them. But I didn't come up with any good ideas then I accidentally extracting this flowers. Thus without realizing it, I have made this potion"
*irritated* "So this potion were made by accident?"
*still working* "True. I still have a lots of the flower in this ring" *show the ring*
Jared show the storage ring to Edward and put it on the table then continue working. Edward pick up the ring and inspect it. The rings are full of light flowers.
*stunned* "How can you have this many flowers? Are you gather all the flowers in the Blaze City in here?" *put back the ring*
*astonished* *still working* "How could you tell?"
*shocked* "I just guess it but it's the truth? Seriously?!"
*still working* "I even collect the seed and ask the gardener to plant it"
*slump* "No wonder, our Lord often called you a crazy person."
*irritated* *still working* "As if he's not crazy himself. Enough of me, tell me about your journey!"
Edward and Jared continue their talks for quiet awhile until Jared finished with the device.
*wipe his sweat* *gasp* "Finally the device are ready" *give it to Edward*
Edward take the device and save it in his storage ring
*look at Jared* "You should take a rest now, you look a mess. And I should return now"
"Okay" *sweating*
Edward wave his hand and leave the workshop
Outside the workshop
"Sir Edward?"
Edward stopped and turn around
"Sebastian? Is there anything happened?"
*smile* "Nothing happened, Sir. I just close by and come to greet you. You look leisurely this time, Sir"
*smile* "Yes, it's my rare spare time. I'll relax myself in my room, if anything happened you can called me in my room"
"Yes, Sir"
