Chapter 263: Come on!
"Yohe, deliberately pretending not to hear! Lloyd, the future alchemy grandmaster, Master Lloyd, you should be happy to call you that!"
Looking at the other party's face full of mockery and viciousness, Lloyd was as disgusting as if he had eaten a fly.
"Ralph, I'm busy with my homework and I don't have time to pay attention to you!"
"Oh, haven't you done the homework assigned by the teacher yet, and there are less than two quarters of an hour before class, can you make time!"
"If you don't bother me, I think it's okay!" Lloyd said coldly.
"Hahaha, I'm really embarrassed to say this, what a sin to hinder Master Lloyd's schoolwork! But even I was able to easily complete this homework last night, I really don't know why you put it off until now, is it because the homework is too difficult for you?
Tsk, no, no, no, you're at the top of your class in every exam, so you shouldn't be stumped by this little question......
I almost forgot, you're going to work in a magic prop shop at night, how can you have time to complete your homework, although the task left by the teacher is very important, but compared to survival, you have to give way, Teacher Xiao Yi is so approachable and will definitely understand you!
However, you want to worship the teacher as a personal disciple, if this attitude is known by the teacher, will it make him unhappy!"
Lloyd's heart trembled, this was actually what he was worried about, in order to be able to realize his ideals, he put aside his conceit and dignity as an alchemist, and worked hard to survive all these years in order to make a living, and now there was an opportunity in front of him, but he was not confident that he could seize it.
He really regretted revealing his apprenticeship thoughts to Ralph now, knowing that just a month ago, the son of the baron was still very courteous to him, although he did not accept the other party's offer to fund his studies, but he never did anything to annoy the other party, and for some reason he was suppressed and targeted by the other party.
Could it be because after seeing the new teacher's ability before, he and a few other classmates from rich backgrounds began to win over classmates in private to help him build momentum, so that he could perform in front of Xiao Yi, and his proposal was rejected by himself? It should be so, yes, but why did he take revenge on himself like this, although he never felt that these rich children who spoke out with a golden spoon had any talent to make themselves agree, but Ralph's words he couldn't admit that it was indeed the reality, how could a student who could not devote all his energy to alchemy cultivation and had mediocre qualifications be worthy of a good teacher.
"I don't have a choice, I'm not like you, you can have a lot of money at home for you to splurge......"
"You're wrong, of course you have a choice, just get out of the academy! You don't really think that the meager remuneration you earn from your hard work can support you to complete your studies!
Tut-tut...... It's ugly, Lloyd, you're throwing alchemists in the face, and it's an insult to someone like you to survive here for someone like you!
Instead of wasting your time and money here, it's better to give up these unrealistic goals for you early and go out early to find a job as a low-level alchemist, which will be good for everyone......
The ugly words were like a knife stuck in Lloyd's chest, and he finally couldn't help but cry out loudly:
"Shut up, Ralph, what right do you have to question my actions, I have not broken the rules of the school or any law, and every copper coin I earn is earned by my own ability, and I spend it with peace of mind.
I may not be very talented, but the school rules that students with bad talent have no right to study?
I don't feel like there's anything to be ashamed of by making ends meet!"
Originally, Ralph's performance was very conspicuous, and then after Lloyd's outburst, it immediately attracted the attention of the whole class, and then Ralph, who was ridiculed for a while, did not react violently.
A contemptuous smile hung on the corner of his mouth, and then he said in a loud voice:
"Listen, everyone, it is worthy of our good example and aspiring to be an alchemy master, when you say it so righteously, it seems that I have become a waste for nothing, everyone is the same, compared to you Lloyd, we are all fucking waste!"
Ralph's statement was obviously a joke, but it worked very well, and most of the other people in the classroom looked at Lloyd with a bad look, and some of them must have the same thoughts as Ralph.
"Okay, you said you earned it all by your ability, you're very proud, right! Then let's see what this is......"
As he spoke, Ralph took a large pocket from the attendant beside him, lifted it up and poured out the contents, only to hear the clutter of tinkling and a large pile of colorful potions on the desk.
"Do these sound familiar?" 'Swift Elixir', a bottle of hardware...... This 'Warrior's Power Potion', a bottle of gold coins...... 'Primary Mana Recovery Potion', this is not in good condition, it is worth 50 silver coins, but I kindly paid two gold coins to buy it.
Don't doubt it, it's all your work, because every bottle has your name mark on it, and that's a ...... Hahaha...... What do you want me to say about you!
Alchemists have a tradition of signing their own works, but that's something that only the level of a master master or above can do with confidence, and their shots must be works above the excellent level and worthy of signature, and you as a junior alchemist do some ordinary, sophisticated and such rotten goods must also be signed, who gave you confidence, ah!"
Seeing Lloyd glaring at him in grief, Ralph seemed to get a great deal of pleasure from it.
"Of course, I don't think you should be so arrogant, so what are you doing here, maybe you want to promote your work and attract repeat customers?
But that's not the point! The point is that I've always bought these things from the shop where you work, and I've always done that...... Why, don't be so surprised! You don't really think that these low-grade scrap-like things are going to be bought out every time they suddenly sell out lately!
Then the fuck I saw you pitiful so I wasted money to help you, and not only did you not know how to thank you, but you also put on a look of contempt! What do you feel proud of, proud of? Proud to be fed by the waste you look down on!"
As he spoke, Ralph slammed the potion in his hand onto the table in front of Lloyd, and the shattered potion splashed Royd's robe all over the spot, but he remained motionless, as if he had been under petrification magic.
