I finished all the contracts that needed to be done. I was happy that I finished, but I was much more pleased to begin the new training regime that I thought of. There wasn't going to be much time before the war or when I would be ordered back to the Beast-kin Nation. The rumors in the Embassy must have been going crazy by now as I stopped taking new orders when I came back and told Alexia that the towers that I had signed contracts with could collect their potions. However, what fueled it was that I was rejecting any more orders.

That lent credit to all the rumors, and I knew it would once I completed the orders. Those were hard potions and many life-threatening if done improperly. It was one of the main reasons. Alchemists were so rare and protected. It was another reason we Bunny-kin were so happy to have a Master Alchemist was the depth of knowledge that it allowed our nation. It was another reason why most countries had such a shortage of high-level potions since potioneering was so deadly in this world. Only low-level potions were common, and that was because no nation wanted those to be in short supply. Plus, none of them are deadly if you fail.

The chance to die, though, from the potions among the high-ranking members of nations. But the biggest problem was the wealth of knowledge, and still, regardless of how high ranking you were, how deadly those potions could be. That also made the reason why I could fetch such a high price for the contracts of such a small amount of potions. For the last couple of weeks, where I completed those potions, I had played with a knife's edge. If I made one mistake for some of those potions, I would be a dead woman regardless of how powerful I am.

It was also why my brother Anthony could make such a contender for the throne of Silvermoon tower. Alchemists had a lot of respect and so much power under their names. However, the only problem for him was how much better I was than him in both Wizardry and Alchemy. That with my mother being obsessed with me over him meant that I had got the Heir title. I wasn't sure how that worked, and I knew that it had something to do with the change in my race the system gave me when I was a baby.

I sighed as I moved through the embassy, ignoring some of the pressing duties that many wanted me to do. It was only the Medusa's Wizards tower that was most in line with the representatives, though. I wanted them to understand, though, that due to their races use trying to destroy the free trade agreement with those damned fishing rights that they were trying to push that I wasn't happy with them. The fact that I wouldn't take the contract even if it was Mira and the Illusion tower asking.

I told Yuri to tell them that I wouldn't be accepting a Contract from them since I had closed the business for the foreseeable future due to lack of time. The fact I didn't tell them, though, was still a blatant snub to the medusa race. I was annoyed with them, and I better things to be doing than telling them no.

The next ambassador will inherit the problem, and I knew that wasn't a good thing. The problem was that it seemed that both the Venomancers and the Medusas hated us for some reason. They wanted something from me, and I did make some potions for them, but the representatives disliked me, and the Fishing rights were a way to snub me. They learned that I was not too fond of it early, but they continued down that path, and their enthusiasm only increased as I made that known. With what happened in the auction, I knew that something happened in the past that made them pissed off at me.

All of this led me to hate the gutted spy ring that I was supposed to have here in the demon lands. The size and reach that spy ring should have in the capital and the entire nation still made me feel as if I was blind and dumb.

I shook my head as I cut off my thoughts on it. The political situation should be away from me soon, and there was a reason why I snubbed the bitches that came to see me. I made it to the training area with Florine smiling as I reached the door.
