"I hope there isn't going to be an explosion this time." <Iris>

*Knock*Knock*

"Who is it?" <Albert Acsperi>

Albert's voice could be heard coming from the window nearby where the smoke is coming from.

"It's us! We've come to complete the quest!" <Shin>

A few seconds after Shin said that, Albert's head popped out from the window.

"No way! You've done it!?" <Albert Acsperi>

Right after he said that, he got back in and quickly rushed to open the door.

"Come in!" <Albert Acsperi>

They were led to the couch once more and sat.

Shin took out one of the Torden Ore and showed it to Albert. The moment Albert saw it, his face brightened up.

"This really seems to be the Torden Ore I wanted. Thank you." <Albert Acsperi>

"Now then, since I've gotten what you need, that means the quest is completed, right? Please sign the quest paper so that we can show it to the guild as proof of the quest completion." <Shin>

Before Shin took out the quest paper, Albert asked Shin a question.

"Alright. However, what about the reward? Don't you want to know what it is?" <Albert Acsperi>

"Hm? Doesn't really matter. If isn't much, you don't have to give it. I'm fine with having the quest completed." <Shin>

"Wait a moment! The reward is not just nothing! It's a very amazing thing that I've manged to make from my countless experiments!" <Albert Acsperi>

As he said that, he got up and rushed into his room. A moment later, he came back while holding something in his hand.

"This is the result of one of my greatest experiment!" <Albert Acsperi>

He then showed the thing in his hand. It's a rectangular capsule.

"This is a capsule that contains 5 tablets. Each tablet can increase a person's magical output by 10%, when consumed. So whatever magic spells you use, the strength will be 10% stronger! I call it, the power up tablets. Though the duration only last for 2 minutes." <Albert Acsperi>

It was a big declaration by Albert.

"Interesting... That sounds like a very amazing thing to have. Looking at your behaviour, this must be something new. If so, why don't you sell it at the merchant guild? I'm sure this thing would be popular among adventurers. Even the kingdoms army would be looking to have it. You would be rich if you do so, you know?" <Shin>

Hearing Shin says such truthful words, Albert however made a troubled face.

"What you say is true... But, I don't intend to sell them. If I were to sell it, my name would be known, and a lot of people would want to hire me. The worst would be the nobles. From my own views, they would eventually take advantage of me. They would force all kinds of experiments for me to do, and I don't want that. I prefer to do my own experiments anytime I want. That's why I've been purposely making explosions and claiming that my experiments are always failing. So that people would look down on me and won't bother me." <Albert Acsperi>

"Are you okay with telling me this? What if I spread it?" <Shin>

"Hm? Well... You got a point. But, I feel like I can trust you. I mean you did take on my quest which no one bothered to do, and even more willing to do it regardless of the rewards. That alone makes you a reliable guy." <Albert Acsperi>
