It was the next day that the master gave me a mask and clothes.
" Take these, chose any suitable name, from now you are not a noble but a farmer's child who came here to study alchemy, okey"
"Won't they ask for any kind of identification,"
"Don't worry, they will only care if you have money or not, anythings else doesn't matter to them"
"Isn't it to mean"
"That's how it works, there are many who tries to become alchemist but at the end fails,so they mostly ignore newcomers until you show some talent"
"Well then we must leave, we have training to do"
Richard nodded in response.
They left for the Alchemist association, they used the front gate to leave the estate.
Knights and other servants stopped him and requested him to take a knight with him.
"Young master, please take a knight with you, it is necessary to take precaution against any kind of trouble, we will have to answer if something happen, please young master, it's important for security"
The sarcasm was clear as daylight in their words.
"Don't worry my teacher is with me, he is will be able to handle things"
" But young mas,,,"

Before he could say anything Alan interrupted him.
" Is there anything wrong with it?"
"No no young master, that's not what I was saying, you are getting me wrong"
"So what were you saying"
"Nothing young master, have a safe trip." Said the servant trying his best to hide his annoyance under his smile.
With this they left the estate, he changed his outfit behind trees when Richard made sure that they were not followed.
"From now in I am Mark"
"Whatever" said Richard without showing any interest.
After changing his outfit he looked like any other commoner, he did not change his hair colour because brown hair was relatively common in comparison to other hair colours.
The only change was face but it was still difficult to look through his disguise.
Without any second thought he arrived in front of the Alchemist association.
Before entering the office Richard left him saying it was his work and went his way telling him to meet him in an hour.
After entering he was able to understand why everyone wanted an alchemist, even if it's a branch office in a countryside every corner was indicating their wealth.
While being amazed by the office, a lady came towards him with a trained business smile on her face. She was wearing white shirt with a green coat over it which did not fail to show her curves, with a green pencil skirt and green heels.
She looked like modern business women, which made him wonder if he was really in another world.
"How may I help you sir?"
It was when she spoke to he came to his senses.
"Yes, what is the procedure to be an alchemist?"
It didn't take long for her smiling face to turn into a frown. With an irritated face she asked if he had money or not, to which he replied with a simple nod.
After paying the money he was given some tools, herbs and books.
"Take these, demo classes are held every evening, if you succeed to make basic pills, you have to take an exam to prove your skills and become an official Alchemist."
