It was the morning of the third day when Angor ended his training session.
When he opened the door to his lab, he immediately saw Shirley in full magician's uniform. She was leaning against the wall of the hallway while playing with Gru.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, before Shirley had a chance to steady herself, Gru, the otter, jumped from Shirley's palm to the rose-patterned teapot hovering in the air, and disappeared into it without a trace.
Shirley only turned her head after she completed the set of actions in one go.
"Mi-Mister, you're out?" Shirley quickly put on her signature professional smile and spoke in a more natural tone.
"Why are you here?" Angor asked in a neutral tone.
"I'm here because …" Shirley peeked into the lab. She heard that Angor was doing alchemy in his lab. She wondered what he was doing. Was it for her?
"Huh?" Angor frowned and closed the door behind him.
When the door was slammed shut behind her, Shalie showed a regretful look. When Angor looked at her doubtfully, Shalie cleared her throat and said, "I'm here because Lady Greya asked me to."
"What did she want from me?" Angor asked as he headed outside.
Shirley quickly followed behind him. "Witch Yada came to the manor yesterday morning. She brought the alchemy papers for the top three finishers in the Rising Star Competition. But Mister Greya has been training in his lab these days, so he gave it to Lady Greya."
Yada was Beast Emperor Lawson's family name. Only Lawson's daughter, Melantha, could be called Witch Yada.
"Lady Greya told me to come here and tell you about it, sir."
Angor frowned. "She could've sent a voice transmission to me. There's no need for you to come here, is there?"
Shirley purposely blinked her eyes playfully. "I volunteered myself."
Volunteered? Angor looked at Shirley and noticed that she was exuding a strange aura that said, "Come on! Hurry up and ask me why I volunteered myself! "
"Oh." Angor did not ask anything else and kept walking.
Shally was surprised by Angor's lack of response. But she quickly put on a flattering look and moved closer to Angor. "Sir, I heard you're going to help the top three contestants in the Rising Stars Competition?"
Angor nodded noncommittally.
Shirley quickly followed up with an excited look. "I didn't think the department would send you here to do alchemy customization, sir. That's wonderful!"
Shalee was waiting for Angor to ask her why, but when she saw Angor's expression, she knew she wouldn't be able to wait that long. "I've been so excited ever since I heard the news. Although I didn't perform well in the Rising Star Competition and it's a pity that I didn't enter the top three, I thought about it. Sir said that he would make me a tool that matches my identity as a magician. Isn't this also called custom-made alchemy? "
"I didn't get into the top three, but I got the top three reward. How can I not be excited?"
Shalee's expression remained the same. Angor glanced at her. Angor glanced at her. He was impressed by her ability to express herself so clearly.
He knew what Shalee was trying to say. She wanted to know more about alchemy from him.
However, Angor didn't do as she wished. He wanted to know what would happen if Shalee continued with her one-man show.
Shalee didn't give up when Angor didn't say anything. "Sir, since the top three contestants have submitted their personal information and alchemy instructions, should I show my information to you as well? Or has Milord already finished refining it? "
While speaking of "information", Shirley purposely puffed up her chest, which was still perfectly covered by her magic uniform. It sounded like she was trying to seduce Angor, but in fact, she was hoping to pry open his mouth with this little trick.
This time, Angor finally did as Shirley wished. It wasn't because of Shalee's plan. They had already left the hall and entered the yard. Greya wasn't far from them.
"I haven't started yet. But I won't go back on my word. That is, if your talent can really help Toby, "Angor said. "As for your information, you don't need to show it to me. I already have a plan in mind."
Angor didn't tell Shalee the details, but at least she got something out of it. Shalee shrugged and followed Angor to Greya's side.
Greya handed Angor an unopened letter to him. "Shalee told you already. This is from Melantha."
Angor nodded. He accepted the letter and put it into his bracelet without opening it. "Did Melantha say anything else?"
"She asked you to contact Antonio when you have time. He'll tell you the details later."
Greya asked curiously, "Now that you mention it, I'm curious too. What have you been doing these past few days? You've been going into seclusion in the laboratory without saying a word.
Shalee was curious about this as well. She thought Angor was crafting a special item for her, but Angor already denied it.
"I'm crafting a platform to carry the Seethe of Fate."
Greya was surprised. She didn't expect Angor to start so soon. She thought Angor would look for Demon Flower Spirit Blood Stones first. Wait. If Angor was working on the platform, did that mean … "You've already found Demon Flower Spirit Blood Stones?"
Angor nodded. "Yes. There are enough to support Shalee's Seethe of Fate for a hundred times."
"I have been asking around for the whereabouts of the Demon Flower Demonic Demon Bloodstone these few days, but I did not expect you to act so quickly." Greya couldn't help but ask, "Did you finish the Seethe of Fate as well?"
Angor didn't answer. He took out something from his bracelet.
It was a palm-sized crystal plate. At first glance, it looked like a glass container. However, upon closer inspection, one would notice that the plate was flat without any concave shape. Rather than a glass container, it looked more like a jade plate.
There were no decorations on the crystal disc, and it looked bare. However, when one looked at the disc from the side, one could faintly see that there were faint silver lines inside the disc. Under the sunlight, it had the effect of mercury flowing through it.
