Chapter 395 He just refused you a moment ago

Alice initially thought that no one sane would exchange an alchemy furnace of the same level for a pill of equal value.

Now, she felt almost guilty, as if she were taking advantage of an elderly person.

"Elder Astraeus, maybe you should reconsider? I think we shouldn't go through with the exchange," Alice suggested, feeling that it might be inappropriate after calming down.

It was one thing if Thaddeus had sold the furnace to her, but Astraeus was an elderly man who had sincerely bowed to her.

She felt uneasy about taking advantage of such a situation.

Onlookers also felt that Alice would be getting the better end of the deal by exchanging, but Astraeus appeared anxious.

He took out an Olympian Emerald-Golden Glow Bracelet, also a Legendary Artifact, and offered it to Alice, saying, "Miss, this bracelet is also a Legendary Artifact. I'll give it to you as well. This pill is extremely important to me, so please, let's make the exchange."

To others, the Serenity Elixir might not be very useful, but for the Pantheon Guild, it was a treasure of incalculable value.

Astraeus thought Alice was hesitant because the Olympian Star-Patterned Alchemical Furnace alone wasn't enough, so he voluntarily added another Legendary Artifact to the deal.

"Elder Astraeus, that's not what I meant!" Alice became even more embarrassed and said, "If you really need this pill, I'll give it to you."

Astraeus nodded and replied, "Thank you. Please also accept this bracelet,it's of no use to me."

"How can I accept this?" Alice felt uncomfortable, thinking she was already taking advantage, and now Astraeus was offering another Legendary Artifact, making her feel even more indebted. n/-o-/V))e((l-.b/.I)/n

William chimed in, "Don't refuse, just take it."

His comment drew disdainful looks from the bystanders.

They were all aware of Alice's status as a Quasi-Deity or higher, and by that measure, Alice might even be older than Astraeus.

When William says something like this, doesn't he feel a bit embarrassed or guilty at all?

Alice, hearing William's words, could only thank him and accept the bracelet.

Upon receiving the Serenity Elixir, Astraeus visibly relaxed.

With only a little of his original life force remaining, he was uncertain how much longer he could stay in this world.

His words were a clear challenge to Sebastian, sparing no consideration for his pride.

"Hmph! I didn't come today to argue with you! Your alchemical furnace has caught the interest of this young apprentice from our guild. Tell me, what do you want in exchange?" Sebastian's focus was clearly on the young man by his side, while he completely ignored Alice and her group.

What about someone surpassing the Quasi-Deity level?

How could such a person exist in this world?

At first glance, the energy emanating from Alice was that of a typical mid-level Soulmancer, and she even looked like a young woman in her twenties.

If she really were a Quasi-Deity level powerhouse, surely her original life force couldn't be this abundant?

I heard that Garen directly conceded in front of Alice!

What level of strength does that put Garen at?

A Demi-God level swordsman, thinking he is invincible?

The only explanation must be that Garen intentionally conceded to Alice for some reason!

Astraeus first asked, "What's the name of this young man beside you?"

Sebastian glanced at the young man, who then bowed and said, "My name is Dominic."

"Dominic! A good name," Astraeus chuckled, head lowered.

"This alchemical furnace, since it's already promised to someone else, obviously can't be sold to you," Astraeus smiled, "Sebastian, surely you wouldn't stoop to playing the role of a robber over such an item?"

Sebastian laughed heartily, then turned his gaze to Alice, saying, "Young lady, how about you exchange the pill with me instead?"

Simply put, if Astraeus didn't want to sell to him, then he would ruin his deal.

He had also heard about the mental derangement of Ares, the leader of the Pantheon Guild. This pill must not fall into Astraeus's hands.

Once Astraeus leaves this world with Ares still mentally unstable, their Celestial Sentinels Guild would become the strongest guild in the world.

Claiming to want to buy the alchemical furnace, but his real purpose was something else.

Alice also responded, "Oh no, that won't do! I've already promised it to this elder here."

Sebastian's gaze sharpened, he said coldly, "Young lady, I advise you to think carefully before answering! Those who have refused me in the past haven't met with good ends."

Before Alice could speak, William, pointing at Astraeus, said with a smile, "He just refused you a moment ago."
