Chapter 100: The Old Fox Harold Is Really Sparing a Blood!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
On the seventh floor of the Alchemy Tower, Mas brought Harold and the others up through the transmission channel.
Only seven people from Harold’s group entered the Alchemy Tower.
Harold, Rosa, Anthony, Belek, and three other young, beautiful, and well-dressed girls.
The disguised Master Mas was reading the Alchemy Materials Encyclopedia.
When Harold and the others saw the real Master Mas, Harold was the first to greet him. “Greetings, Master Mas! I am Harold.”
Dick put down the Alchemy Materials Encyclopedia and smiled. ���I’ve long heard of His Majesty Harold’s name, but I haven’t had the time to visit. Apologies!”
“Master Mas is too kind.”
“I obtained the help of Master Mas to kill that crazy Louis VI. I didn’t expect such a tyrant to appear in the vassal state of the Storm Empire. It’s a pity for the people of the Trun Kingdom!”
Harold looked pained.
Hearing this, Dick said softly, “His Majesty Harold is too kind!”
“Master Mas, Your Majesty Harold, please have your meal first. We’ll talk as we eat,” Mas said with a smile.
Then, everyone walked to the round table and sat down.
The order of the seats was rather interesting.
As the owner of the Alchemy Tower, “Master Mas”, Dick naturally took the lead.
Harold and Mas sat on either side of Dick.
Belek sat beside Mas, followed by Mage Anthony.
Rosa sat beside Harold, and the three beautiful girls sat next to him.
“Your Majesty, I hope you can forgive me for my lack of hospitality!” Dick said with a smile.
Looking at the dishes on the table, Harold smiled. “No, no, we’re here to disturb Master Mas. We’ve troubled you, Master Mas. Furthermore, this delicacy is fragrant and delicious!”
“It’s great that Your Majesty doesn’t mind!�� Dick nodded.
Dick started to eat and the others followed.
Belek, who was sitting beside Mas, secretly glanced at him and whispered in his ear, “Brother Dyson, does Master Mas have to wear a mask even when he eats?”
Mas looked at Belek at that and whispered, “I don’t know either!”
“I have never seen Master Mas’s true face. Whether it is eating or sleeping, I have never seen him take off his mask!”
Belek looked at Mas in shock and said softly, “Brother Dyson, you’ve never seen Master Mas’s true appearance before?”
“Yeah, I also asked Master Mas why he wanted to keep his mask on, but he didn’t tell me!” Mas shook his head.
Mage Anthony, who was sitting beside Belek, suddenly touched Belek lightly.
Belek looked at Mage Anthony, who did not say anything but looked at Belek.
Belek instantly understood what Mage Anthony meant. He leaned over to Mas’ ear and whispered again, “Brother Dyson, could you do me another favor?”
“Can you get Master Mas and His Majesty Harold to talk in private later?”
“What?” Mas could not help but speak a little louder.
With that, Mas could only smile when he saw everyone looking at him.
Mas sighed inwardly. He felt like things had become troublesome.
Belek’s request was a very normal request.
After all, Harold had already come all the way, and the disguised “Master Mas” was the owner of the Alchemy Tower. It was completely fine for the leaders of both sides to have a private conversation.
However, if they were to talk alone, who knew what Harold would say.
What if, when it came to alchemy, Dick could not answer? Wouldn’t that expose Dick’s identity?
Mas frowned slightly and pondered how to reject this matter.
Unexpectedly, Harold suddenly spoke.
“Master Mas, may I have a word with you in private after the dinner?” Harold asked with a smile.
Dick froze at that, but he recovered quickly and glanced at Mas from the corner of his eye as he waited for his instructions.
At this moment, Mas had many thoughts in his mind.
If he agreed with Harold, in case Dick let it slip, it would be hard to smooth things over.
If he was rejected just by talking about this matter alone, it would arouse Harold’s dissatisfaction.
After all, Harold was the Legendary Emperor of the Storm Empire. In terms of status, he was not inferior to Master Mas. A single meeting would not have any effect.
Therefore, once he refused, Harold would definitely wonder why Master Mas rejected him. Furthermore, Harold was smart and would probably figure out the reasons. If Harold guessed that Dick was not the real Master Mas, then it would be bad.
In that instant, Mas had an answer in his heart. It was to agree to Harold and Master Mas’s request to talk privately.
At most, he would find a chance to leave with Dick alone later. Then, after swapping his clothes, he would put on the mask.
Mas gave Dick a look.
Dick then looked at Harold and smiled. “Of course I can. It is my honor to be able to talk to His Majesty Harold privately!”
Harold laughed heartily at that.
After that, everyone ate and drank freely, the atmosphere of the banquet was extremely harmonious.
Mas was about to make an excuse to leave with Dick after the dinner.
Unexpectedly, Harold gave Rosa a look at this moment, and the latter immediately walked to Mas’s side. He smiled and said, “Brother Dyson, I am the seventeenth emperor of the Storm Empire!”
“I came to visit Master Mas with my grandfather today, but I didn’t bring any gifts.”
“This is a small token of my appreciation, please accept it!” Rosa actually took out two Seven-Colored Stones and handed them to Mas.
Mas’ eyes widened when he saw the two Seven-Colored Stones.
It was what he lacked the most!
Mas could not help but glance at Harold.
“That old fox is really willing to spend a lot!” Mas sighed.
“Thank you, Your Majesty Rosa!” Mas laughed and accepted the Seven-Colored Stones, ready to find an excuse to leave with Dick.
Unexpectedly, Rosa pointed at the three beautiful women and continued, “Brother Dyson, these three are the three most outstanding women in the Pine family. They are obsessed with alchemy!”
“All of them look up to Master Mas. However, as Master Mas and my grandfather have something to discuss, they would not interrupt their conversation.. Brother Dyson, as Master Mas’ beloved disciple. I wonder if you can explain the basic skills of alchemy to them?”
