Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 1669

"Haha, come on in! I thought it might take a while before you'll drop by since you're new and all. It hasn't even been a few days and you're here already!" Theodore chuckled and gestured for Severin to enter. "I should clarify something though. Our alchemists are only allowed to keep thirty percent of all pills they've crafted for personal use. The rest will have to be given to the sect. I'm sure you have no objections to that, right?"

Severin smiled and replied, "Of course not. That's a very reasonable rule."

Theodore mentioned the standard procedure as a mere formality because there was no practical way to oversee the alchemists' crafting process and count every single pill that they made. It ultimately depended on the alchemists' integrity in abiding strictly by the stipulations.

"Right this way. The fourth-grade low-rank and fourth-grade medium-rank spiritual herbs are on the second floor. The first floor is where most of the first, second, and third-grade materials are stored. Most of those who come to collect the materials from this floor are lower-level alchemists," Theodore explained the different floors to Severin while leading him to the staircase inside.

Severin encountered some familiar faces not long after he entered. Harris and Felix greeted him with a respectful smile, "Senior!"

"Are you here for some third-grade low-rank materials?" Severin inquired after noticing the material in their hands.

Felix responded, "Yes. We've been meaning to thank you, by the way. We benefited a lot from watching you refine those pills. After returning and thoroughly digesting the knowledge from watching your demonstration, we decided to give a shot at crafting some third-grade low-rank pills. Imagine our surprise when the both of us succeeded in just over a day!"
