As more and more elves began to notice, Abel was sitting on a grass weaved cushion in the center of the retreat room.
He felt coolness forming from the grass. At that moment, he noticed the cushion was entirely made out of soul calming grass, a type of grass only found in mana environments.
They could take up to 500 years to grow. Therefore, no human would sacrifice 500 years of mana to grow this grass, even though it had a clear calming effect on the soul.
Only a race that lived in nature while having so much love for alchemy would grow these grasses.
Also, the lifespan of elves made the wait seem a lot less daunting. At least they could see its harvest once in their life.
So, you can imagine how expensive it would be to make an entire cushion out of them. It was not something achievable just by spending gold coins.
Abel sighed at the generosity of the Alchemy Union and calmed his soul. He was here to become a Master Alchemist, after all.
