Chapter 751: Side Story 4. Endless Journey - 34
Originally, Seven Ether belonged to Bassena. So, while it already merged into one of Mortix’s lines, the main store followed Bassena and moved their workshop to Lucre.
The building grew, and they trained more artisans, raw talent found in the disappeared red zone. Interestingly, there was one small room that was made to be identical to the one in the old workshop—a cozy living room with a single-frame old photograph on one of the side tables.
Of course, only a select few might enter that special room.
"Look! Look! Grandma looks like me, right?" Lucy excitedly pointed at the picture.
"Whoa...you’re right!"
Except for the twins, the other had never been there. Sadly, the pictures of Zein’s and Bassena’s parents were almost nonexistent, and this picture was one of the few originals that could be counted on one hand. They looked at the framed photograph in fascination, and Lucy was so proud of it.
"That’s not true, Princess. You’re prettier than that rowdy girl," an old man voiced a disagreement. "Must be because Young Master Sena got lucky and married a beautiful partner."
Lucy giggled and hugged the grandpa. As the lead artisan of Seven Ether, was the only person left aside from their Ayya who knew her grandma. He was no longer working due to his age, but he still oversaw the other artisans’ works. Asa jumped to his feet and took out a pouch from his pocket.
"Grandpa, this is the gemstone that we got from the school’s competition," he took out a light blue aetherite.
It was something they acquired back in February and had been keeping a secret. After all, it came out of a sealed surprise box that sometimes could be found in the dungeon, so even the school had no idea what could appear inside.
The old man raised his brow. How long ago had it been--twenty years? He still remembered the kids’ father came to him with the same type of aetherite, asking for it to be fashioned into a bracelet. Unfortunately, the bracelet was already destroyed in the final war, but thinking that it was used for a good cause made the artisan feel proud.
