Rebirth : The Alchemist's Path

Chapter 38: The Ruler Card and New Opportunities



**Deity-Sealing Card**: A one-time consumable item that, when used, allows the user to reach the level of a Ruler Mage for the duration of one hour. Price: 200 million points.

Seeing the description of the third item, Sylvus was stunned at first.

He then took a deep breath, almost losing his composure.

A Deity-Sealing Card that could directly make him a Ruler Mage?

While it seemed that inside his shop he was invincible, once he left the shop, he was just an ordinary mage.

If he encountered a slightly stronger mage, he might be in serious trouble.

But now, this Deity-Sealing Card could make him a Ruler Mage instantly.

Although it would only last for an hour, it was still a dream come true for countless people.

If others knew he had something this powerful, they wouldn't hesitate to offer not just 2 billion magic crystals, but even 10 billion or 100 billion to obtain it.

"Too bad I don't have the money."

Looking at the 70 million magic crystals in his account, Sylvus felt like crying.

The Deity-Sealing Card, which could make him a RulerMage, was right in front of him, but he couldn't afford it.

After a while, Sylvus calmed down from his grief.

Although he couldn't buy it now, that didn't mean he wouldn't be able to in the future.

The system store had just refreshed, and its items would be available for seven days.

All he had to do was figure out a way to earn 2 billion magic crystals within those seven days.

"That little fatty Corvin's family has plenty of money. If I get the chance, I'll definitely swindle him," Sylvus thought to himself with a sly grin.

Meanwhile, in the Steinway family, as Corvin was cultivating, he suddenly shuddered, feeling a chill down his spine as if someone was plotting against him.

Since Sylvus couldn't afford the Deity-Sealing Card, he had to put it aside for now.

He spent 100,000 points to buy a Green Nether Pill.

As for the energy block, although he could afford it, Sylvus decided to wait.

Between the energy block and the Deity-Sealing Card, he wanted the card more.

He would wait and see if he could earn enough magic crystals in the next seven days to buy both items.

Finally, Sylvus closed the system store. This time, the items were excellent, but he just didn't have enough money.

"I should focus on cultivation for now. The power in the Green Nether Pill should be enough for me to break through to the Grand Mage level."

With that, Sylvus consumed the pill and began his breakthrough.

"Rumble..."

The next morning, Sylvus' body trembled slightly as his realm advanced to the level of a One-Star Grand Mage. The surrounding magical energy slowly stabilized.

"Not bad. There's still some medicinal power left. I don't need any more pills for now. I'll refine this residual energy and stabilize my cultivation."

Sylvus smiled as he opened his eyes.

He had only been in this world for about seven days, yet he had already reached the level of a Grand Mage.

Such an astonishing breakthrough speed would leave countless geniuses speechless if word got out.

Heading downstairs, Sylvus reopened his shop for business.

As soon as he sat down, an old acquaintance arrived.

"Boss, it's been a few days. Have you missed me?"

Corvin approached Sylvus with a grin.

He had been in seclusion for the past few days, and last night, he successfully broke through to the level of a One-Star Primary Knight.

When his father, Teddy, found out about his breakthrough in the morning, he was utterly shocked.

Teddy had even looked at Corvin with suspicion and asked a question that almost made Corvin cough up blood.

"Are you really my son?"

Corvin had no choice but to explain that his quick breakthrough was due to the pills from Sylvus' shop.

Once Teddy understood, he nodded in realization.

It made sense. There was no way his useless son could have improved so quickly on his own.

It turned out to be thanks to some miraculous pills.

After that, Teddy told Corvin to visit Sylvus' shop often, to stay on good terms with him.

Teddy himself didn't dare to go. The memory of what had happened last time was still fresh.

If he said something wrong again and Sylvus crippled him a second time, Teddy would truly be in tears.

"Are your pills all used up?"

Sylvus asked Corvin kindly, his voice filled with concern, like a caring father.

Sylvus' hope for earning 2 billion magic crystals was now resting on this little fatty.

Seeing this unusually friendly side of Sylvus, Corvin shuddered. Why did he feel like the boss was about to scam him?

"Boss, you—"

Before Corvin could finish speaking, another voice interrupted.

"It seems I'm not the first to arrive."

It was Kennan, who had just walked over, with the Third Prince Leo standing beside him.

"You two are together?" Corvin asked in surprise.

Kennan had recently become the young master of the Sloe family, the future head of the family.

Now seeing him with the Third Prince, did this mean the Sloe family had decided to support the Third Prince?

"We just ran into each other on the way here," Kennan explained.

A few days ago, the family head, Sloe-Masi, had specifically instructed him.

The Sloe family had remained strong for so long not only because of their great power but also because they never got involved in royal disputes.

Kennan didn't want to be seen with the Third Prince.

But there was no avoiding it. They had bumped into each other on the way to Sylvus' shop, and it would have been impolite to refuse to come together.

Leo understood the meaning behind Kennan's words.

It was clear that Kennan wanted to distance himself from him.

But Leo didn't mind.

Besides trying to win over the Sloe family, he had found another path to claim the throne.

"Boss, I was in a rush last time. May I take a look around your shop today and check out the other pills you have available?"

Leo took a step forward and respectfully asked Sylvus.
