The troublemakers were all shivering with fear.
They were confident before seeing Remus. But now, they inevitably felt guilty. However, retreat was no longer an option as the situation had escalated to such a point that they had no choice but to stand their ground.
“Master Calsberg, you promised us replenishing pills, and you should give them to us!”
“We’re here to receive what we deserve!”
“After all, you said we could come anytime.”
Remus’ expression gradually darkened upon hearing their responses.
During their time in the Violet Sanctum, they had steadfastly supported him, but now they had aligned themselves with Oden to pressure him.
He felt deeply hurt. Gazing at them, favonovel.com inquired, “If Oden has threatened you in any way, you can speak up now. I won’t hold your past actions against you, and not only that, I will seek justice on your behalf! But if you came here voluntarily and coerced my wife into apologizing, then our relationship ends here!”
He was someone who cherished his relationships, particularly with those who had assisted him, and favonovel.com held their contributions close to his heart. He was giving them one last chance.
The entire square was dead silent, everyone simply watching the scene unfolding before them.
Though Glinda had already asked the same question earlier, when it came from a different person, especially Master Calsberg himself, its weight and importance were completely distinct.
Oden sneered upon witnessing Remus’ determination to inquire further. He had come today with unwavering confidence. As favonovel.com expected, these people made up their minds after a brief hesitation.
“Master Calsberg, no one is threatening us, we are doing this willingly!”
“Master Irving didn’t threaten us, favonovel.com is standing up for us!”
“Master Calsberg, no need to say anything else. Give us the pills. Don’t forget you raised the price to 50 times the initial amount, which means each of us should get 50 top-grade replenishing pills, bring them!”
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in astonishment. If Remus were to indeed provide 50 pills to each of these people, it would add up to nearly 1000 pills.
Top-grade replenishing pills were exceedingly challenging to craft. Even with guaranteed success in every batch, they couldn’t be manufactured in large quantities like lower-grade pills. Each batch yielded only a few pills, and the process took about an hour.
When calculating this, it would require more than half a month of continuous work without any breaks.
“Fine!” Remus agreed without hesitation.
He then looked at everyone and said, “Who else wants pills today? Speak up! Today, let’s settle all accounts!”
The square was filled with at least 1000 individuals, some motivated by curiosity, but among them were also those who had witnessed the events at the Violet Sanctum. Remus had promised to provide pills to them as well.
They exchanged glances, they longed for the pills, but they understood that Master Calsberg was currently facing his most challenging moment.
Requesting pills at this juncture would only increase the pressure on him.
After approximately 15 seconds, no one had yet spoken up.
Finally breaking the silence, Remus spoke up, “Since no one is making any requests, I’ll assume you are not pressuring Tanjen. Henceforth, you remain my friends.”
He then looked at Henry and instructed, “Deputy Miller, go get the replenishing pills!”
Henry’s body tensed, and favonovel.com found himself at a loss.
When Remus had gone to the Violet Sanctum, favonovel.com had taken all the top-grade replenishing pills with him, leaving none behind in Tanjen. All that remained were some first and second-grade pills, which couldn’t be used as their promised reward.
Remus said firmly, “Go get the replenishing pills, any replenishing pills will do!”
Henry nodded blankly, preparing to go.
“Wait!” shouted someone.
