When Ainsley received the message from the Alchemist Guild headquarter at the capital, she instantly jumped from her bed and shouted.

"I did ith! HELL YWEAH!!!" The baby was shouting on top of her lungs in the middle of the night...

Because of that, Grandpa Yoyo almost confiscated Ainsley’s phone if not for the baby begging him to let her go just this once.

"Sleep, Ain, don’t play with your phone anymore!" Grandpa Yofan left the room while grumbling.

On the other hand, Ainsley looked at her phone screen once more, and when she saw the short message sent to her email, she giggled softly.

’I did it! The headquarters noticed me! If it’s like this, it’s only a matter of time before they declare my potions as authentic. After that...’

Ainsley already thought of continuing the illegal auction. As long as the headquarters didn’t interfere, she didn’t mind breaking the rules...

Anyway, her potions were legit. The customers wouldn’t get cheated at all...

Or so she thought.

That night, while Ainsley was sleeping soundlessly to prepare the potion sample tomorrow morning, the Godfather and Zev chatted outside of the bedroom.

[...what do you think about Lil Lass’ movements?]

The Godfather blew the cold air as he looked at Zev. Somehow, his eyes seemed a bit melancholic and full of thoughts.

The usually cheeky Zev also didn’t dare to joke around. The toddler spirit let out a big sigh.

[She’s doing well. But about the auction...if she doesn’t have the alchemist guild’s license...] Zev shook his head and sighed once more.

[I am worried about the possibility of an evil customer. If they said that the potion is harmful after bidding for it, others will simply believe them...because it’s an illegal auction.]

Illegal auction means that there’s no one backing the auction, and there’s no one to hold the ground either.

If it’s the alchemist guild’s auction, no one would dare to say that the potions they bought were fake because many forces recognised the alchemist guild.

Either in the country or abroad.

The alchemist guild was an official organisation that could ensure a potion’s authenticity.

This was why the alchemists took the problem seriously when someone sold a fake potion under their eyes.

Any potions that got licensed had never been fake so far. The alchemist guild had a reputation to maintain.

Ainsley might be getting the alchemist guild’s acknowledgement...her potion might be declared as authentic.

But without the auction license, anything can happen. Someone could accuse Ainsley, saying that the baby switched the potion and sold the fake one.

Anything could happen because the auction was illegal!

But if the alchemist guild gave their consent and licensed the auction, if anything is happening around the auction, they would be the one responsible for them.

That’s why...the alchemist guild had the right to demand money for the license they sent out to the potion merchants.

This was Ainsley’s problem, and the thing that she couldn’t avoid was the possibility of someone bearing ill will toward her auction business.

The Godfather nodded at Zev’s analysis. He could only play with his long hair while sighing.

[Let’s just see what will happen next. This Lord just hopes that everything goes well...]

The Godfather had never opened a large-scale business that involved tons of forces in his past life.

He was a solo fighter, and the business he did was also a solo business, such as being an assassin and such...

What Ainsley experienced was something way trickier.

’Let’s hope the Lil Lass can do this.’

A night passed by, and the next morning, Ainsley packed the 6 potion samples before sending it through a special delivery.

The delivery’s company was trustworthy and often sent many precious items. Thus, Ainsley didn’t need to worry about the potion samples getting robbed.

After all, she only sent one drop of each potion anyway...

However, she ’underestimated’ the 7 sacred families network and how persistent they were to destroy the Sloan Family’s business.

That afternoon, Ainsley was eating lunch when she got a phone call.

It was from the delivery service.

"Yesh?" Ainsley had just received the call when someone from the other side of the phone shouted with a hoarse voice.

"L-lady Sloan! I-I am the Orchid Delivery Service’s current owner!"

Ainsley couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

"The ownel? What is it? Why are you cawlling me? Is there an emelgency or sometwing?"

When Ainsley said that, the owner paused. He gulped several times before bursting into tears.

"M-milady! I’m so, so sorry! We...we lost your p-package!"

BAM!

Ainsley subconsciously slammed the dining table until Grandpa Yoyo and Elliana looked at her with a shocked face.

W-what happens? Why is Ain slamming the table?

With a dark face, Ainsley jumped from her seat and gritted her teeth.

"What do you mean you lost the package? Your service has been there for 50 years already and you have less than 10 robbery cases!"

Ainsley didn’t bother to use her cutesy language anymore as she strode to the side garden.

The baby didn’t even look at Grandpa Yoyo and Elliana, afraid that she would scare them with her current expression.

Yes, if anyone saw Ainsley right now, they would freak out and faint. After all, the baby looked like a devil crawling from hell!

But...if one looks closer, she’s also...smiling?

Nevertheless, hearing Ainsley’s menacing voice, the owner almost choked to death. With tears streaming down his cheeks, the owner explained.

"W-we are so sorry, b-but we got robbed by 30 assassins, elite thieves and a few elite troops...o-our guards can’t fight them..."

That’s why, the owner’s employees couldn’t guard the package well despite their large number.

They had to give up the package!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
