Chapter 414
In the past, the guards would ask about it, but Gordon simply refused to give them an answer. As time passed, the
guards no longer questioned the master but never got an answer to satisfy their curiosity. In recent months, Gordon
could feel his health deteriorating, and the gloomy look on his face seemed more evident than before.
"Are you looking for someone, Master Gordon?" One of the guards couldn't stop himself from questioning Gordon.
Gordon stared blankly at the vast mountains before him as he sighed. "I don't think I'll be able to find her…" He
couldn't conceal the sorrow in his voice no matter how hard he tried.
"We've been working with you for over 20 years now, Master Gordon. You're practically family to us. If you trust us
enough, we can always help you to find the person you're looking for." The guards shared their true feelings with
the old man. "Our fate… Has come to an end…" Gordon murmured while shaking his head.

to be recalling sad memories of the past. One of the guards was about to say something when Gordon waved them
off. "I'm getting old. I feel tired after singing just one song. Why don't you guys help me back to get some rest?" he
said. The guards knew that he no longer wanted to speak about this matter, so they obediently sent him back to get
some rest.
On the other hand, Vania was just as dismal as she hadn't gotten the information she needed. She looked like a lost
soul as she dragged her feet while walking. Hanson rested an arm around her shoulder before forcing her to look
into his eyes. "If this doesn't work, we'll find another way to make it work. We'll figure something out even if all our
methods don't work for us," he said.
"That's right. You shouldn't be so pessimistic, Boss. We just got to Gondalwelt today, and there are tons of places
related to The Great Chemist that we've yet to visit. Perhaps we'll find something tomorrow." Linda couldn't bear to
see the disappointment in Vania's face, so she added on to Hanson's words in an attempt to cheer Vania up.
"Let's have a meal while thinking about this matter, Ms. Greyson. We have to ensure that we have the strength to
continue our search," Larry reminded her. They were on a journey full of risks, so they couldn't afford to fall ill at
the very start of it. Vania knew her reaction had been too extreme earlier, so she tried her best to regulate her
emotions. She knew that she had to keep calm in order to be able to find The Great Chemist to save her son.
"Alright. Let's eat around here. Perhaps we'll be able to hear some news about The Great Chemist," Vania
suggested. Deep down, she hoped that she would bump into Gordon somewhere around the area. That way, she'd
be able to approach him directly. Hanson didn't want to burst her bubble, so he agreed to her suggestion. "Sure.
Let's eat here."
The theatre was a cylindrical building that had a total of six floors. The center area was where the performances
happened, and there were dining tables that surrounded the stage. The residences were just upstairs. The whole
place was designed to look like a traditional, vintage building, so the staff members were also dressed in traditional

clothes. There were also traditional snacks from the olden days that were sold in the area.
They were surrounded by nature, and the hustle and bustle of the people around them made them feel like they
were in an ancient town. In the end, Vania selected a spot that gave them the best view of their surroundings. She
chose a seat that allowed her to have a view of the main entrance. Anyone who entered the theatre would have to
pass by their table, so she could see everyone—even the staff members who had been moving equipment for
Gordon earlier.
Vania was confident that Gordon would show up sometime soon. The four had just sat down for a while before a
friendly staff member came over to greet them. "Greetings, our dearest customers. What would you guys like to
have today?" The waiter mimicked an old-fashioned manner of speaking.
As he spoke, he poured some locally famous tea into all of their cups before handing the menu to them. "You guys
look like tourists who are here for a visit. Is this the first time you're here in our humble little store? I can introduce
some of the signature dishes to you," the waiter suggested.
