Duke Bart did not tell Master Muir about Abel immediately since he was still in conflict with Judge Angelo, and he had agreed not to drag him into their conflict.
After Judge Angelo was punished, Duke Bart could no longer reject Master Muir, so he told him about Abel.
Especially since Master Muir had helped a lot during the process.
Abel and Master Muir sat in the larger room as Steward Eden brought on the juice.
"Druid Bennett, according to Duke Bart, you were a master potion maker?" Master Muir got straight to the point.
It was exactly what Abel wanted. He had to be recognized as a master alchemist to receive corresponding benefits in the elves. Also, the master alchemist pattern within him would grow with the other master alchemist potion makers' help.
He might even have come to obtain light gems with his products. All he needed was enough glory in his name and a guaranteed success rate, which shouldn't be a problem for Abel.
