The botanist will be curious about Alucard's retractable fangs since Ikorran vampires cannot retract theirs.

He will show Alucard a few options, though the first thing he asks is what Alucard can afford. There are some extremely rare herbs that are beyond the common cook, but he's aware some of the Summoned are known to have a bit of wealth themselves.

Being from the Free Cities, Alucard may lie to him about how much money he possesses. Their reputation is as such that the botanist would've heard that Free Cities Summoned in particular like to spend.
