Kapitel 1978: Crisis

The journey back to Golden City consumed three days for Emery, and upon his arrival, he was immediately confronted with a pressing issue at his Merlin shop.

What had initially begun as a seemingly minor delay in the delivery of apothecary materials had rapidly escalated into a crisis. The specific ingredient crucial for the production of his highly sought-after [Celestial Booster Pills] had become increasingly scarce, and even alternative components were in short supply. As a consequence, the production of their flagship product had come to a halt, leading loyal customers to seek substitutes from rival establishments.

The situation took an absurd turn as other Merlin shops's specialty products faced similar challenges, resulting in a flurry of complaints from disgruntled customers. The domino effect of shortages had caused a ripple through the community, with a growing sense of frustration and impatience among consumers.
