Unrivaled Under The Heaven

Jason was first confused by what the grand elder meant by the words but decided to forget about it as he went to him and asked.

"So what pill are you going to concoct Today".

The grand elder pause to take a look at Jason and seeing the happy expression on his face, he couldn't help but chuckle before replying to his question.

"I plan to mass-produce the rejuvenation pill".

" what pill is this rejuvenation pill you speak of" asked Jason.

"I am talking about the pill that I made yesterday. And by the way, you looked more healthy compared to yesterday" reply the grand elder.

"It's all thanks to the pill you gave me yesterday even my mother felt much relieved after taking the pill" replied Jason with a smile on his face.

"I am glad to be of much help" said the grand elder.

"I have been meaning to ask you grand elder if there is any pill by the name wiping grass, mystic fruit, soul clearing grass and the winded flower" asked Jason.

"You seem to be a bit knowledgeable about herbs I presume" replied the grand elder with a shocking expression when he heard Jason mention the names.

"I am not knowledgeable about herbs, I only heard someone saying it when I was going home yesterday and I thought maybe I should ask if you would be willing to show me" said Jason.

"Sure, how can I say no to someone who finds interest in herbs" replied the grand elder before getting up from his seat as he walked toward the shelf where things are kept as he began his search.

"Although not all the herbs you mention are available in here but we have the book of herbs where you can find the picture of any herb you are looking for and what they can do" said the grand elder as he brought out the book of herbs from the shelf before walking towards another shelf and pick a greenish grass before walking back to take his seat.

"If I may ask grand elder, does this book have all the herbs stored inside" asked Jason in amazement.

"Yes it does but the problem is the book of herbs is split into 3 volumes and this book of herbs that I am holding is the second volume. You will have to search the whole of the empire before you can have a complete set but that would have wasted a lot of your time" reply the grand elder.

"And I thought it would have all the herbs stored inside. What a disappointment it turned out to be" said Jason with a sigh.

The grand elder almost spat out a mouth full of blood when he heard Jason's statement.

"Young man, you should be grateful that you were able to see one instead you are acting like it is a big deal" commented the grand elder.

"But it is a big deal grand elder, how am I supposed to gain knowledge about the other herbs if there are no records in the book of herbs" replied Jason.

"Well since it is a waste of your time, then don't bother opening it then" said the grand elder as he shoveled the book into his robe.

"What are you doing grand elder putting the book on your robe are you thinking of soaking it with your sweater" asked Jason as he watched the grand elder put the book in his robe.

"Of course I am keeping it and what is wrong with that head of yours boy" replied the grand elder with a frown on his face.

"Come on grand elder don't be like that, I was only saying that my knowledge will be limited to things that are stored in the book" said Jason with a pleading look on his face.

"And I believe you know of the saying. It's better to have one than to have none" replied the grand elder.

"And that is what I am doing grand elder, so do you mind letting me have a look at it" asked Jason.

The grand elder didn't bother to answer him as he just threw the book at him which Jason failed to catch as it slammed him in the face.

"Urg that hurt, I can't believe you will go to the length of striking a kid" said Jason in pain as he held the book in his hand.

"You have your mouth to blame for that" replied the grand elder with a smirk on his face.

"I can see that you enjoyed bullying the young" said Jason as he stared at the grand elder.

"Hahaha, don't get me wrong kid I do not enjoy oppressing the young but that mouth of yours is too annoying" replied the grand elder with a laugh.

"I don't blame him for that since you are really annoying" said the bracelet.

"I can't believe you are also siding with him too and I thought you hated him" replied Jason in surprise.

"I don't hate him alright. Is just that he makes too many errors in his pills making and nothing else" said the bracelet.

The grand elder who was laughing not quite long suddenly stopped as he said with a sigh.

"It's been a long time since I have laughed this much kid and for that I will let you keep that book".

"You are giving me the book" asked Jason in shock as he stared at the grand elder.

"Of course, since you show interest in learning about herbs, it's only right for you to keep it, '' replied the grand elder with a smile as he placed his hand behind his back with a proud look on his face.

"I can't take it, I am surely sorry grand elder" said Jason as he handed the book back to the grand elder only for the grand elder to stop him as he replied.

"If you are worried about the family losing it only volume, then you don't have to worry since we have copies of it and how are you going to know about the herbs you asked me of earlier if you hand it over now" replied the grand elder with a smile.
