I Can Give Talent

Chapter 47 – Valenia

Leyvi's eyes widened. Not caused by the tempting lips, but by the realm of the elegant woman before him. 

"A Nascent Soul realm!" Leyvi exclaimed in a low voice. He had never seen a Nascent Soul realm cultivator before. Even his sect master was only in the Core Formation realm.

"Oh? It looks like Alchemy Master Anda's husband is quite amazing. He's the first person who could see my cultivation realm in this city," Linda glanced at Anda and then stared at Leyvi as if trying to uncover his secret.

Anda was secretly shocked. She planned to attract the attention of Treasure Pavilion's higher-ups, but she didn't expect a Nascent Soul expert to show up.

Layla almost fainted. The branch manager is a Nascent Soul cultivator? Why were there so many revelations today? What else would be revealed to her today? Would her future husband be revealed too?

Leyvi was taken aback. He was the first one to see her cultivation here? Was it supposed to be a secret or something? Oh no! He blurted it out just now. Other people will know it. Leyvi seemed to panic.

"Hehe..Mister husband, don't worry, I put up a sound barrier when I came here. No one else besides us can hear our conversation. Layla, keep it a secret okay?" Linda giggled and assured Leyvi it was fine.

"Is what you said true? I can take Layla right?" Anda asked for confirmation. The bait she cast was almost bitten.

"Alchemist Master Anda, it is true. Does Alchemy Master Anda need more people for her mansion?" Linda politely asked.

Although her cultivation realm was way higher, she acted politely because the girl in front of her was a true Alchemy Prodigy. The lingering aura from the pills matched exactly with her aura so there was no doubt she refined them. Not only that, the pills that she brought out were all Tier-3 pills that don't require the use of a special fire, but she clearly has a special fire around her.

What does this mean? It means that just obtained the special fire and she will have the ability to refine much more complicated Tier-3 pills soon. She would be stupid if she dared to act rudely with an Alchemist Prodigy like her. Her future is limitless. Even the eldest son of the former city lord who was hailed as Bara City Alchemy Genius was nothing compared to her.

In conclusion, Alchemist Master Anda was a huge business opportunity for her. Giving Layla and a few other people was nothing compared to this opportunity. 

"Yes, I would like to have a few more." Anda nodded.

"Good! Layla, please gather all the available workforce in the large room and we will let Alchemy Master Anda pick whoever she fancied." Linda instructed.

The workforce she mentioned was the people who had no money and were in debt to the Treasure Pavilion. They will do various miscellaneous jobs in the Treasure Pavilion or be hired by other people to be a maid or guard until their debts are paid. They were not slaves because they still had human rights and the Treasure Pavilion was not allowed to mistreat them.

Soon, there were around 50 people in the room. They all looked healthy and had the cultivation of at least an early-stage Qi Refinement realm while the highest was in the early stage of the Foundation Building realm.

Linda led Leyvi and Anda to the room. Leyvi and Anda were staring at Linda's hips, swaying left and right seamlessly without causing any abnormal butt jiggle. It was like a piece of art.

"Anda, can you walk like that?" Leyvi sent her a sound transmission.

"No, she must be a natural or she has been practicing walking like that her entire life. It's amazing!" She replied. Anda admitted she could never walk like that. She wanted to touch Linda's hips while she walked to uncover her secrets. 

"Is this her Dao?" Leyvi wondered.

"Pftt.." Anda almost laughed. "What's with you and Dao? You kept saying that word since yesterday."

They arrived in the big room full of people.

Leyvi and Anda immediately scanned them.

"Alchemist Master Anda, please take your time and choose them," Linda said. As an expert in the Nascent Soul realm, she was naturally aware that her hip sway was stared at by both of them but she didn't mind, she was proud of it. 

Layla handed over a document to Anda so she could go through the information about the workforce in the room.

Fifteen minutes later, Anda closed the document.

"Sayu, Nikita, Fifi, Valenia, Hana and Bana. I want these six people." Anda said to Linda.

"Alright. The six names mentioned stay here while the rest can be dismissed." Linda instructed. After a few moments, only ten people left in the room.

"From now on, your debt to the Treasure Pavilion will be waived and you will have a great opportunity to work for an Alchemist Master," Linda announced.

"What??" The six people were shocked. They didn't expect their debt to be waived. Not only that, they can work for an Alchemy Master. Who would miss this chance? Even if they were not in debt anymore, they were still broke. They never thought an opportunity like this would fall on their lap.

"Nikita, Fifi, and Hana, I'd like to hire you as my housemaid. You will be in charge of taking care of the house. Do you agree?" Anda asked.

"Yes!" The three of them answered without hesitation.

"Sayu, I'd like to hire you as my sister's personal maid. She will need special attention because of her personality, but basically, you just need to take care of her. Do you agree?" Anda asked again.

"Yes!" Sayu agreed.

"Bana, I'd like to hire you as the gatekeeper for our house. You should know what to do since you have experience as a gatekeeper right? Do you agree?" Anda asked for the third time.

"Yes madam." Bana agreed.

"Lastly, Valenia. I want you to be my Alchemic Knight!" Anda smiled.

"What?" It was not just Valenia who was surprised, even Leyvi, Layla, and Linda.

Being an Alchemic Knight wasn't just like hiring a bodyguard. An Alchemic Knight needed to swear the Oath of Loyalty to the Alchemist and they needed to serve the Alchemist until they died. In return, the Alchemist was obligated to train and give them plenty of resources.

However, this was where the tricky part came. Since the Alchemic Knight swore an Oath of Loyalty, if they betrayed their master, their fate would be miserable. The heaven itself would punish the oath breaker. The alchemist on the other hand doesn't need to swear any oath, so if the Alchemic Knight swore an oath to an irresponsible alchemist that doesn't keep their promise, their entire life would be ruined. 

"Manager Linda, could you explain to her what it meant to be an Alchemic Knight?" Anda requested.

Linda nodded. She then proceeded to explain the ins and outs of being an Alchemic Knight to Valenia. Valenia's expression turned serious as she heard the details.

"Valenia, I want you to think carefully before you answer as this affects your whole life. Let me tell you this, when you become my Alchemic Knight, you will also become my husband's concubine!" Anda said her unnegotiable term.

"Huh?" Leyvi was stunned. This came out of nowhere. Leyvi started to sweat. Anda, are you trying to recruit an Alchemic Knight or bedroom reinforcement? His panda wife really won't let him win the night battle anymore.

Leyvi looked at Valenia. She's a tall tan-skinned woman with a toned body and she tied her red hair in a ponytail reaching her neck. Her face was serious right now. Leyvi finds her quite pretty.

"If you have someone you like, you can decline right now," Anda added.

"Madam Anda, I agree. I will become your Alchemic Knight!" Valenia suddenly agreed.

Leyvi was surprised. He didn't expect her to agree suddenly. It couldn't be that she likes him right?

Valenia's resolve to agree was indeed related to Leyvi but it was not as he thought. She thought that since Anda was a young Alchemy Prodigy, a person like her should be able to get any husband she wants but she chose a husband who is a lower cultivation than her. She even wanted another woman to serve her husband. She must love her husband so much. A devoted person like Anda wouldn't treat her badly, so Valenia immediately agreed. She admires a devoted wife like Anda.

"Good, since you have agreed, then say your oath, my name is Anda Leyan," Anda instructed.

"I, Valenia solemnly swear to the heaven, as the Alchemic Knight of Anda Leyan, I will protect her with my life and be loyal to her until my last breath, unleash the heavenly punishment upon me if I ever betray her." Valenia completed the Oath of Loyalty in a breath.

Anda smiled. She finally has an Alchemic Knight. Although she said that Valenia would be Leyvi's concubine, she wouldn't force her to serve Leyvi in bed.

She would whisper and slowly plant nice things about Leyvi in her mind like she did to Lilian and make Valenia like Leyvi before she brought her as reinforcement to the night battle!
