Expectedly, Elton seethed with fury.

“It appears the Jenkins family finds a third-grade alchemist like me unsatisfactory now. Very well, I will hence resign as the Jenkins family's pill alchemist. From this day forth, I sever my ties with the Jenkins family!"

In truth, Elton felt that Mrs. Jenkins had only accidentally overstepped her bounds with such remarks.

With a tantrum, he believed the Jenkins would beg and plead for him to stay.

Yet, as soon as he finished speaking, Mrs. Jenkins nodded.

“Mr. Acosta, are you planning to seek employment elsewhere? Very well.

With this Reverse Pill, we shall arrange for a fourth-grade healer make use of it and assume your position. Henceforth, the Jenkins family will have a new pill alchemist.”

Elton was stunned by her words.

The Reverse Pills had two functions: increasing talent level and altering talent type.

These two functions, however, could not be done concurrently. After taking the Reverse Pill, the user would absorb it in their body using the internal energy of ancient martial arts and pick one of the functions.

The cultivation grades were classified as one through nine. Ancient martial talent types were divided into physical combat, spiritual strength, weaponry, healer, and pill refinement.

Even if one took the Reverse Pill, his strength couldn't jump from the lowest to the highest grade. It could only be determined by the pill's effect.

If one wanted their strength to improve and skill to become more uncommon, the quality of the Reverse Pill itself had to be superb.

As a result, when Elton Learned that Mrs. Jenkins planned to transfer a grade four healer to a grade four pill alchemist, he finally realized why the Jenkins family was willing to spend so much money on this Reverse Pill.

“A grade four healer is already hard to find. Where did this old woman find such a person to compete with me for the job?"

Elton whispered to himself, completely astounded.

At this time, he realized that Mrs. Jenkins no longer tolerated him because she had found a better candidate.

The thought of losing his job as a mere grade three pill alchemist terrified Elton.

“Our family... Is there really a grade four healer in our family?" a young healer with them exclaimed in amazement.

Everyone gazed at each other, stunned.

It was Vivian who was in the worst mood.

Patricia had just gotten Mrs. Jenkins to approve Maria and Elton's marriage. How could Elton be expelled all of a sudden?

Furthermore, Vivian had just become Elton's apprentice and began her training as a pill alchemist. Was she going to lose her dream now?

“Aren't you Miss Barbara Herrera? You've finally completed your studies and returned from the headquarters of the healers’ association."
