Altair sighed and explained, with a hint of grievance, "Father Utravsky, I think you should know that my family rose to prominence over six hundred years ago during the War of Resistance against Japan. Although we've experienced several ups and downs, we've fortunately managed to preserve our lineage."
"Of course, I'm not saying this to show off. Please let me continue."
"Because of my bravery in the initial battle against the Sheffield, my family was later bestowed with a hunter's potion recipe by the Royal Family of Rune, also known as the Augustus family."
"The family has never forgotten its origins and has continued the tradition of using hunter's potions, for example:"
My father and grandfather were both excellent hunters.
"But this tradition will end with me, because I cannot choose the hunter's path."
Altair, fearing that Utravsky was unaware of the drawbacks of the hunter's path, explained further, "I wonder if you've heard of this path? It has many drawbacks, especially for women."
.
"For example, this path will force a gender change when you become a Sequence 4 Ironblood Knight. Also, once you choose this path, you will be constantly at war—and so on."
Emmett, standing to the side, immediately mocked Altair after hearing his explanation, "No wonder you lack ladylike qualities. You're definitely a good candidate for the hunter path. How can such a good thing exist in the world? Next time we meet, should I call you 'Tomboy'? Ha~ha~"
ha."
Hearing Emmett's sarcasm, Altair suppressed his anger for the sake of his own plans, putting on an act of being greatly wronged, and continued to explain: "What I mean is that after learning about the drawbacks of this path, I did not choose to become an Extraordinary Hunter."
"That's a real shame," Emmett sighed.
Altair clenched his fist behind his back and continued, "Although my family has always focused on the hunter path, we haven't produced many extraordinary individuals through other paths."
"However, the family has been passed down for six hundred years, and there are some collections, such as potion recipes from pharmacists, lawyers and other professions, which can be freely chosen by family members."
"As for me, a year ago, based on my own needs, I chose a path I preferred, for example: I am now an artificial vampire."
As he spoke, Altair took out several bottles of medicine from his satchel and handed them to Father Utravsky.
He introduced, "This is a potion that I researched and made on my own after becoming a pharmacist. You can take a look."
After receiving the medicine, Father Utravsky examined it curiously.
Altair then explained, "The red one is a life-saving potion, which allows the user to recover vital signs more quickly. The blue one is a spiritual stabilizing potion, which allows extraordinary individuals to recover quickly after exhausting their spirituality, and also stabilizes their spirituality. The green one has a sustenance effect—"
"What I want to say is that after my improvements, these drugs all have a common characteristic: they are cheaper to produce, more effective, and have a wider range of applications, making them affordable for ordinary people."
"So, Father Utravsky, the main purpose of my visit to the Harvest Church is to attract investment."
"If the Church of the Earth Mother is willing to invest in some of my pharmacist pathways and high-sequence extraordinary traits, I am willing to share the formula and assist the Church of the Earth Mother in establishing a pharmaceutical company so that medicines can be affordable for everyone."
"Father Utravsky, think about it, if you weren't a priest of the Church of Mother Earth, but just an ordinary, low-level worker in the eastern part of Backlund, facing daily exposure to lead, mercury,..."
They work to earn money by disposing of harmful substances like cadmium, just to make ends meet. When they get sick, they dare not go to the hospital to spend money on treatment, and can only endure the pain, eventually dying alone.
"But one day, you suddenly discover a church that is not only researching medicines, but is also willing to sell them at a very low price and treat you."
Will this affect your faith?
"While we must admit it is indeed a business, I believe it does not violate the teachings of Mother Earth. On the contrary, you are fulfilling the Mother Goddess's teachings."
"Moreover, it can make money, promote doctrines, and attract believers. Isn't it great to achieve multiple goals at once?"
After hearing Altair's promise, Father Utravsky nodded and said, "If you only need low-sequence extraordinary properties, I can make that decision and give them to you right now."
.
"However, I think that extraordinary characteristics below the level of demigod are not what you need, so my reply to you now is that I can only report to the church temple and let them make a decision."
"Count Altair, would you be willing to wait a little longer? I will later report the medicine and your opportunity to the Temple through special channels and let them give a result."
Altair said with a smile, "Of course, I'd love to hear from you."
"But I won't wait too long."
Father Utravsky said with a serious expression, "I think the temple will give us a result soon."
"Alright, Father Nautlavsky, I'll be at home, waiting for your good news," Altair nodded.
After saying that, Altair added, "I think I should leave the Church of Harvest now."
"
Goodbye, Father Utravsky
Father Utravsky nodded slightly to her and replied, "Goodbye, Count Altair."
After seeing that he didn't try to stop him, Altair turned around and prepared to leave the Harvest Church.
Emmett, on the other hand, followed Altair closely, as if to say, "I'm leaving too."
But before he could take two steps outside, he suddenly changed direction.
He walked over to the area that Father Utravsky hadn't cleaned, picked up a broom, and began to sweep.
He had barely swept the floor a few times when he picked up a rag again and started wiping the candlesticks.
After sensing the movement of the person behind him, Altair turned around curiously to take a look.
After wiping the first candlestick, Emmett's pupils refocused, and she cried out in confusion and anger, "Damn it, what did you do to me? Why can't I control my body?"
Perhaps it was because of this angry outburst that his body became increasingly out of control, and he fell directly in front of the Holy Emblem of Life, beginning to wipe it with a look of reverence.
Upon seeing this, Altair chuckled twice and replied, "Obviously, you're keeping your promise and doing the cleaning."
