Chapitre 1666: Second Round

The impressive recognition of Emery's ascent to the ranks of the top ten Junior Apothecary Masters in the distinguished assembly of the Wood Elf community was indeed a significant achievement.

Yet his inclusion, despite not being one of their kind, stirred a maelstrom of discontent in the audience. Whispers of disapproval reverberated through the crowd, each skeptical glance a silent judgment, creating an atmosphere of apprehension that was as palpable as a thick blanket of fog hanging in the air.

However, Emery, far from being intimidated by this perturbing ambiance, chose to let the murmurs fade into the background. Instead, he steadfastly fixed his focus on the path that lay before him. His eyes, locked onto the horizon, were filled with unwavering resolve, a testament to his indomitable spirit.
