Elise casually put the blue pill on the nearby counter before she said, "It's quite something for an amateur to produce such grade of a pill, tell me, who was the one that taught you about alchemy?"
Her question made Lyon raised one of his eyebrows as he ignored the kowtowed Rowland. "No one, I just tried it today."
Elise's eyes opened wide as she was surprised by his answer. It was near impossible feat for one to be self-learning about alchemy, not to mention producing a level two grade for their first time.
"You-you're lying right?" asked Elise in disbelief. She refused to believe that such a thing was possible. Even she herself was only capable of producing a level one grade white pill in her first experience.
However, she soon noticed that no one denied his statement at all which made her took a half step back instinctively.
"Boy, how old are you?" asked Elise in an attempt to crack this unbelievable fact. One cultivator might look young but several hundred years old in reality, depending on their cultivation realm.
She definitely gauged Lyon's realm but the result was a mere peak Soul Realm.
"I'm nineteen years old," answered Lyon nonchalantly.

"What?!" the whole room except Lyon and Kyoko screamed.
"Hubby! You're nineteen?!" asked Ryona with a surprised look.
Lyon nodded proudly. In his mind, there was no point in lying one's age at all.
Kyoko's heavy sigh was heard before she said, "Ryona, you should know this already, he can't be more than twenty-five, otherwise there is no way we would have met him."
Ryona opened her eyes wider as she asked her overseer, "Huh, really?"
"That's why you need to pay attention when we have a meeting, all you do is talking about fights and fights all the time back in the room."
"Sorry!"
The princess looked at disbelief as she couldn't help but ask, "Lyon, are you really only nineteen years old?"
She still couldn't believe that the young man she was strolling with was actually many years younger than her. The times when they walk together she would always felt that Lyon was the older one, however, another surprising fact was, he was still younger than her younger sister Chloe.
"Yes, for the last time, I'm still nineteen years old!" answered Lyon.
*pat
Rowland patted his niece's shoulders as he spoke seriously, "Luderia's fate is in your hand my beautiful niece, for, as far as I know, you are the one with the chance to bring this kingdom to a new height!"
His eyes were starry as he was dying to wait in the future where Luderia would have a new ruler. He could almost feel it, having thousands of shop branches and his wealth piling up under his butt.
Princess Aelina naturally didn't pay any heed to his uncle's opinion. She was more focused on the fact that the young man was more than what's on the surface. With the young age of nineteen years old, he managed to produce a level two pill with a White Soul Flame, in this regard alone, her younger brother who was said to be the promising young alchemist couldn't even hold a candle.
With his combat capability that tied even that of her younger sister, Prince Weiss talent was nothing in front of him. He was more than just a young man, he was the very embodiment of potential.
While Princess Aelina was in awe, Elise was no different.
(A nineteen years old boy just made a level two grade pill?) thought Elise before she woke up the dazing middle-aged man called Rowland, "Hey, you didn't lie to me did you? You are sure that this boy over here was the one that made this pill?"
"Yes, yes, I assure you, if not you can ask my niece here, we both was the witness of the miracle art!" answered Rowland firmly.
She was still having a hard time believing this as a fact even though the result was apparent. The beautiful little rabbit-woman furrowed her eyebrows before a fuzzy memory sparked in her mind.
(I-i think there was one individual that was recorded in an old ancient book in the Alchemy Union that told the story almost similar to this, but) thought Elise before asking, "Boy, can you let me see your soul flame?"
"Hmm? What for?" asked Lyon with a furrowed eyebrows.
"I don't think there is a harm to let her see it, after all, if you are going to the Alchemy Union, she will become your elder later on," interjected Kyoko calmly.
Elise nodded at her reaction as a soft motion of saying thank you.
"Alright then," said Lyon as he closed his eyes before slowly taking full control of his breathing.
(Such concentration in a matter of seconds!) thought Elise as she watched every single detail like research for her thesis.
"Uh, I think you guys want to take a few steps back," said Rowland as he already took a distance from the center of the attention before the princess follow suit.
Kyoko naturally walked away, with Ryona following behind her.
Elise furrowed her eyebrows as she didn't understand their reaction at all. Albeit confused, she took the advice and took a few steps back.
Lyons slowly opened his eyes as he looked at his right hand. (I feel it, this familiar feeling).
He closed his eyes once more as he lost his sense of time and space.
Rowland held his breath as he could feel that the 'miracle' would show its form once more.

A single breath was heard seeping out from the young man before he opened his sharp eyes that could even penetrate ghosts.
"Ignite!" shouted Lyon.
*boom
The white torrent of fire was swirling around both of his arms, controllable but looked wild. Its height even touched the ceiling as if it tried to burn it to ashes.
He stood firmly with his hair fluttered as if even the mountain would bow to his existence.
*drip
The sound was faint but Kyoko and Ryona heard it. (My, my, little brother, who are you exactly?). They noticed the pale ice sculpture slowly melted due to the soul flame that kept kissing it.
(No way, that flame... There's no mistaking it!) thought Elise as she was agape at the heavenly sight.
