Death… And Me-Novel

Chapter 1265 - Sale

And that's exactly what Rean did. He spent all his time forging the weapons while Roan just cultivated with Kentucky and Celis. Thanks to that, Rean also experienced an increase in cultivation even though he only did the elemental exchange with Roan. Eventually, the day finally came when Rean delivered the last Special Edition of his Element Gathering equipment. "Here you go, a set of flying knives capable of gathering Wind Element. Since there were quite a few pieces, I took three days to finish them all. The price is 1000 Rank Two Divine Stones."

The cultivator was delighted to see his knives and immediately used his Divine Sense on them. Sure enough, Wind Element gathered on their own, leaving a lot of space for the inscriptions he would add later. "1000 Rank Two Divine Stones... Over two years used to save them. However, I don't regret it at all. These little guys are perfect." The guy then passed the Divine Stones to Rean. "Thank you!"

Rean nodded before sending the stones into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. With Roan obtaining ten thousand from Kihin, the twins now had thirty thousand Rank Two Divine Stones to spend. Rean also took some Rank One Divine Stones for simpler trades, so there were another ten thousand of those. "Alright, everyone. I need to leave now. I'll let you know when I come back to continue forging." Well, Rean didn't think he would come back anymore anyway.

However, before he left, the Blacksmith Hall Master and a few other elders stopped him. "Wait a moment." ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

Rean looked at those guys and could tell that a few of them were the people who tried to figure out how his Element Gathering equipment worked. "Oh, Senior Grabol. I haven't seen you in the last few months. Tiao and Francis as well. The last time I saw you was during I tried out for the Blacksmith Hall. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Grabol and the others nodded in response. "We have been trying to figure out how your Element Gathering equipment worked. However, we finally reached the conclusion that there's some secret involved during the forging process that can't be analyzed. No, to be more precise, once the equipment's finished, the method to create it disappears from its forging traits."

Rean had to admit the guy was really good. "So you noticed, huh? That's correct. It disappears, leaving behind the Element Gathering ability alone. However, that doesn't mean you can't figure out how it works by analyzing my equipment. It's just that it's very difficult."

Grabol nodded and went straight to the main topic. "Rean, we really wish to have your method to create Element Gathering Equipment. Would you mind coming up with a price? Before you refuse, I know that you have Elder Etherian backing you up. However, this kind of equipment is just too important for our Sacred Land. If it continues like this, even Senior Etherian won't be able to stop the other elders from coming after you for the methods."

"Alright." Rean immediately nodded.

"What?!" Let alone Grabol, even the disciples and the other elders were taken aback. How come he accepted it so easily? If it was any of the other blacksmiths, they would be extremely unwilling to do so.

Rean looked at Grabol and the others with a puzzled expression. "Is there a problem? If you don't want to buy the method, then so be it." Rean was leaving the Huring Continent, so he didn't mind doing it. That was a good way of securing some extra profit as well. Besides, he wouldn't talk about his tempering methods or the Earth's Remnants. His own Element Gathering equipment would still be the best.

"Wait, wait, wait!" Grabol immediately came back to himself. "We want! We definitely want it!"

Rean smiled in response, telling them, "Very well. Senior Grabol and the other elders saw how profitable this business could be, right? With that said, I hope you won't mind if I ask for a very high price for it."

Grabol immediately raised his hand. "You got one thing wrong. We do want the method, but we won't allow the method to leave the Sacred Land. The ones who will know of it are just a scant few, as it is directly related to the Sacred Land's strength. With that said, we won't be opening a business anywhere. We will only forge equipment for our disciples and elders. Also, those who learn it will have to sign a Soul Binding Contract, with the penalty of death in case they try to reveal the secret behind the methods."

Rean wasn't surprised to hear that. "Very well, that makes me even happier. In any case, I will still ask for a high price."

Grabol didn't mind. "That's a given. Paying you for this huge contribution to the Sacred Land is just the right thing to do."

Rean then stated his price. "1000 Rank Three Divine Stones."

Grabol's face went pale in an instant. "This..."

Before he could refuse, Rean intervened. "Don't come at me, telling me I can't have Rank Three Divine Stones because I'm not a Core Sector member. You said it yourself. This is directly related to the Sacred Land's strength as a whole. Even if I'm not a Core Sector member, surely I deserve such a payment."

Grabol shook his head. "It's not that. We would definitely make an exception for you since you're correct in your statement. It's just that 1000 Rank Three Divine Stones is truly very expensive."

Rean smiled in response. "Not really. You don't need to share the forging method, but you can still sell it to some big shots of the Huring Continent and recover the Divine Stones eventually. Think of the long term. It's definitely worth it."

Grabol then closed his eyes before he spread his Divine Sense. From the looks of it, he couldn't make that decision alone, so he contacted someone else. Around a minute later, he sighed and nodded, telling Rean, "Very well. One thousand it is."

"Thank you for your patronage." Rean was delighted to hear that.. "Please, bring everyone who wants and has the right to learn my method inside. I will only show how you do it once!"
