Tristan opened his eyes and his gaze instantly locked onto the pills on the alchemist's hand. A look of fervor appeared on his face and he quickly leaped out of the sofa, standing in front of the alchemist in a second.

"Oh, Engo is here." It was clear from his words that he only now noticed the alchemist.

Master Engo gave a strained laugh, apparently not minding the indifference. He even seemed as if he was used to this. He directly offered the pills and bowed. "Greetings, Elder Tristan. These are less potent pills. I will start working on a fresh batch right away."

"Mmm…" Tristan rolled the pills on his hand and gave a nod in response before starting to walk away from the room in deep thought. He completely forgot about Liam and everyone else in the room as he simply left the room and disappeared into the corridor.
