Great Nobleman.

Chapter 2093 Mr. Derek is right!

Although the purpose was to go to the Elven Royal Court to place a custom commission for alchemy potions.

However, due to a combination of various reasons, it was several days later when Brand finally set off.

That morning, he was holding Catherine's arm in one arm and Heidi's arm in the other.

As the surrounding Morning Flower Castle terrace unfolds like a curtain falling.

Instead, the environment of a teleportation hall in the Elf Forest and the Elf Royal Court came into view.

Immediately afterwards, he looked around at the open space, and then returned the greeting of the human alliance nobles to the elven guards who were bowing to them.

Brand smiled at Mr. Derek, who was waiting outside the teleportation platform:
"It's been a while since we last met, Mr. Derek, your aura seems even stronger!"
You won't become a Grand Magus in a while, will you?

If that's the case, I'll really need to prepare a gift that you'll like!

Upon hearing this, Derek shook his head and said:
"It's not that easy."

I just had a little free time during this period, so I did some self-cultivation.

The promotion to Grand Magister is no easy feat.

After casually remarking that, Derek smiled and invited Brand and the other two who were approaching:

"Let's not talk about that anymore. How about we have lunch together today?"

"Perfect, we can go and mooch off that old man Clermont's private chef together."

Brand was taken aback when he heard Mr. Derek use such a disrespectful form of address for Lord Clement the Elf King today, and he didn't know how to respond.

Instead, Heidi Lin, who was standing next to him, asked curiously:
"I've heard these past few days that the reformist faction is at odds with our conservative faction again? Is His Majesty Clement not giving us face?"

Derek smiled and nodded, saying:
"You're really well-informed!"
But let's get on with your business first.

I've already made an appointment with Master Solan for you. He's available right now, so we can go directly there.

With that, Derek led Brand and the other two directly to a smaller teleportation platform nearby.

Soon, the light and shadow changed.

They arrived at a small wooden room filled with a magical barrier.

They seem to have noticed the commotion here.

A screen of light appeared in front of them.

On the screen of light, an old elf with white hair and beard blinked, then smiled at them:

"Welcome, Lord Brand, Hedy Lin, and this beautiful human lady."

"You guys just come with Derek. I'll be at the alchemy workshop; we'll talk when we meet."

Without waiting for Brand and the others to respond, the light screen disappeared.

Derek, in high spirits, led the way while explaining:

"Master Solan is currently the most authoritative alchemy and potion master in our Elven Kingdom."

In the past year, many powerful warriors from various races have spent a great deal of their battle merits to commission him to customize life-extending potions.

But you are the only ones who have created a life-enhancing alchemical potion specifically for magical plant seeds.

"Have you perhaps found some extremely rare magical plant seeds?"

Without intending to hide anything, Hedy Lin nodded and said:
"That's right, but its problem is very serious right now, and I don't have any good solutions, so we came to the Elven Royal Court."

I also know that the best way is to bring the seeds over and let the masters in the royal court take a look.

However, this involves some of our family's secrets.

So after much deliberation, we ultimately decided to adopt this relatively inefficient method.

Derek nodded and said:
"I see. This method is not bad, except that it is a bit wasteful."

However, a wealthy man like Brand probably doesn't need these military achievements.

At the end, Derek gave a joking smile.

Seeing this, Brand shrugged and said:

"Military achievements are valuable, but they're ultimately something to be used. Besides, the war is over; who knows if they'll suddenly become worthless later?"

Derek smiled and said:

You're right!

As they talked, the short corridor came to an end, and a door filled with magical energy appeared before them.

Derek also explained:
"We've arrived. This is Master Solan's alchemy workshop in the royal court."

As they spoke, the doors in front of them opened to the left and right.

Immediately afterwards, in the alchemy workshop filled with magic and life elements, with various equipment and potion bottles neatly arranged, Master Solan, whom they had just seen, smiled and greeted them.

Next, after introductions and getting to know each other, we had a brief chat.

Hedy Lin began to explain to Master Solan the specific details of the alchemical potion they needed.

Meanwhile, Brand, Catherine, and Derek chatted about their recent situations in the nearby rest area.

Thus, Brand also learned that the Elf Forest had indeed sent powerful elves to aid the continent of Osia.

However, it is worth mentioning that:
The elves who went out to provide support were all from the reformist faction, while Mr. Derek and his conservative faction were recently opposing this!
After taking a bite of the berries that Master Solan had offered them as a treat.

Derek said somewhat discontentedly:

"In the eyes of us conservatives, the reformers are all troublemakers!"
Since things have already been exposed to some extent, I'm too lazy to give them any more face.

In fact, they had been in cahoots with the continent of Osia for a long time.

Initially, it was just about cross-continental trade.

However, once the continental war broke out, and the continent of Osia promised benefits,

These guys were immediately blinded by profit, and now they're trying to drag our entire Elf Forest down with them.

While the Hall of Radiant Fire is indeed our enemy, it is a common enemy of all races on our continent.

Their arbitrary and secret dispatch of people to assist in the battle is clearly an attempt to put our Elf Forest in the spotlight.

Although I also don't want to see the [Radiant Hall] sweeping across the continent of Osia.

Ultimately, however, the overall relationship between the continent of Osia and our continent has not yet reached that point.

Even with our Elf Forest, the continent of Osia can only be considered a relatively friendly partner.

At least for us conservatives, there is no reason why we should send anyone to help in the war.

In addition, the ceasefire agreement we signed with [Radiant Hall] has not yet expired.

The tribesmen we sent could not obtain the full support of our Elf Forest.

Their actions clearly show a disregard for the safety of our people!

Upon hearing this, Brand nodded in agreement.

Although he knew that Mr. Derek's words were definitely biased by the conservative faction of the Elf Forest and not necessarily entirely objective facts.

But that doesn't matter.

After all, Mr. Derek was Hedy Lin's biological father and father-in-law.

So, on matters unrelated to the North Holland family, Mr. Derek is certainly right!

Then, seemingly quite pleased with Brand's reaction.

Derek smiled and made the request again:

"By the way, don't give that old man Clermont a good look during lunch."

This guy has been giving us attitude more than once or twice lately.

This time, we absolutely have to retaliate.

Hearing this, I felt a little hesitant and uncertain.

However, on the surface, Brand readily nodded and said:
"Okay, we'll do as Mr. Derek says then!"
