"Y-You're an alchemist too?" Daphne Camellia stuttered as she pointed her finger at Zen.

It wasn't just Daphne Camellia becoming shocked by Zen saying he was an alchemist.

Even Morgan Pelora and Krista Dragoon were intrigued by such a fact. Becoming an alchemist is not something common as it requires a lot of experience.

Zen twitched his mouth slightly on the reaction of these people. 'Am I really that doubtful?'

Zen was sure that they did not believe his word one bit. After all, he never showed his capability other than exposing his essence flame for a bit.

'Shouldn't having an essence flame prove my credibility as an alchemist already?' Zen questioned inwardly.

"In this tiny world, their knowledge of essence flame is simply a fire spell that is stronger than their magic. Thus, it wasn't a surprise that they aren't able to connect the dot with the essence flame and alchemist." Cecilia sent a transmission to answer Zen's doubt.

Hearing Cecilia's reasonable word, Zen nodded his head in understanding. It is a fact that mages are able to produce fire as long as they have an affinity with fire elements.

So they weren't that surprised to see the essence flame Zen cast as they believed it's just an irregular flame.

"Hey, are you going to keep quiet and not answer me? Are you really an alchemist or just trying to lie and boast?" Daphne Camellia shouted again when she saw Zen was distracted.

She felt that she was being disregarded and treated as an invisible person. 

Who was she?

A young and prideful miss from the Camellia family. Despite her fiery temper, she was considered a beauty with many youths pursuing her in hopes to get her love.

There was never a time when she was disrespected by the opposite gender so she couldn't accept Zen's behavior toward her.

"I'm an alchemist and one that is definitely better than a little missy who couldn't even pass a 4th tier alchemist test," Zen replied in a mocking tone.

To him, Daphne Camellia's personality is the same as those snotty brats on Earth where they only have arrogance and pride in their body.

Daphne Camellia clenched her teeth in anger as she pouted, "Hmph, I-I was just feeling unwell at that time so I messed up. But I'm still a 3rd tier alchemist in the end."

Afterward, she flashed out a badge that has 3 stars brighten up with 6 being dull, indicating she was a 3rd tier alchemist.

Zen was dumbfounded by the design as it was crafted beautifully and embedded with diamonds.

'Damn, alchemists are truly a wealthy bunch to be able to create such a prestigious badge.' Zen cursed inwardly by the wealth they flaunt.

"Hmph, do you see this badge is my proof of authentication? Where is your badge then?" Daphne Camellia smirked as she was convinced that Zen was boasting.

His expression of shock when she revealed the badge showed that he has never seen it before.

However, if he was really an alchemist and took the test then he should have seen the badge because it's the same design with only some slight minor changes if your rank is higher.

Zen was dumbstruck by the badge and heave a sigh shortly after by the immature behavior of Daphne Camellia.

"Who the fuck made the rules that you must have a badge to become an alchemist, to begin with?" Zen snorted in displease.

Zen's words made the entire crowd drop their jaws as they weren't expecting such a comeback from his speech.

The crowd pondered his words and found his logic to be reasonable since there was never a rule that said only those with a badge are an alchemist.

There could be some great alchemists but they didn't bother getting a badge since they believed it to be a waste of time.

There was a famous alchemist in this world who never took an interest in other things except his alchemy and pill researching.

Despite that, he was still heavily respected in the alchemy guild and many alchemists hold him in high regard.

Meanwhile, Lady Seraphine had a big headache at this year's auction. 

'How did a heated item like the amplifying orb suddenly get pushed into the sideline? Why are we discussing alchemy all of a sudden?' Lady Seraphine complained inwardly as the crowd was mumbling something unrelated to the auction.

Zen smiled brightly as he got everyone distracted about the main theme of this auction. 'Let's see if those people in the shadow have the patience to wait any longer.'

He was stalling purposely to test the patience of the people plotting something behind. If the auction continues to proceed as it is then everyone would be focused on the auction and become unguarded.

At that time, it'll be easy for them to go ahead with their plan and ruin his chance of getting the Soul Replenishing herb.

"So you don't even have an alchemist badge but dare to be proclaimed as an alchemist. Do you even know the word, shame?" Daphne Camellia snapped out of her daze as she glared at Zen.

"We can do an alchemist face-off after this auction and if I win. You will fulfill one of my conditions. Of course, if you win then I'll be the one to listen to one of your conditions." Zen replied with a provoking expression.

Almost like he was sure that Daphne Camellia would not have the courage to accept a face-off.

As expected, she bit the bait as she replied instantly. "Face-off it is, I'm not afraid of you. I have faith in my alchemy skill and I will surpass that slut, Morgan Pelora very soon."

'Sweet, such a naive little miss. No way would I lose when I had the greatest alchemist as a teacher while you only have this tiny world fake alchemist as a teacher.'

Zen smiled wickedly as he had to think up of a condition for her to fulfill. 

"Great, we shall have our face-off as soon as I get my desired item in this auction. Lady Seraphine, you can now resume the bidding for that amplifying orb." Zen exclaimed as he informed Lady Seraphine who was on the verge of tears if the farce continued on.
