Weapon seller in the world of magic

Both of them entered the treasury. Mark saw millions of gold coins spread around like sand with jewelry and gems found here and there. However, they didn't impress him a bit as he had more wealth at the moment.

The princess then reached a wall with a huge handprint on it as if it belongs to a giant. "This is our secret armory." She introduced it as she placed her right hand on the print.

The wall door slid to the left, revealing a chamber with weapons arranged on the walls.

There are about 110-120 of them and every single of them is a semi-divine/earth-grade weapon.

As Mark inspected them, he found that several of them are actually in Ruby grade, which is like a high-quality semi-divine weapon.

Along with that, he spotted something else. There was a common factor in every single weapon.

He asked her curiously, "You managed to get your hands on Adamantium metal?" All of them varied in percentages, some of them have 10% Adamantium, some of them have 22%, and the highest one has a 41%. But, it is clear that Adamantium metal is used in every weapon.

"Indeed, you have special eyes like I assumed," Shen Ling let out a satisfactory smile as she praised him. She then said, "Yes, they are made of Adamantium. Now, please follow me. I'll take you to our greatest treasure."

Shen Ling then went to another corner of the room with five levers in different colors attached to the wall.

Pointing at them, she explained, "Each of these levers can be moved in three positions, up, down, and middle. So, there is a total of 729 possible combinations out of which only 1 combination will work out. The combination will be changed often. So, it will be a bit tricky to open this.

And if you fail three times in a row, the seals will be activated and the toxic gases will be released from all the sides, knocking anyone under the legendary realm. So, even if we are careful to never open this lock."

"Can't you just destroy the wall with brute force? It looked like it is just made of bricks," asked Mark. He felt like she was bragging too much about that security.

To which, the princess shook her head as she was setting the levers in their positions, "but no one knows where the door really is and no one had any knowledge about these levers. Only my father and I know about it and we two are the only ones with access."

*swoosh*

The door slid to the left once again, but this time, it revealed a staircase to the underground.

"Come."

Mark followed her to the underground cavern.

While walking forward with a fire torch in her hands, she explained that this place was once used by her ancestor to escape from the palace with his family when he lost the war against invading forces.

Later on, this was used by the kings and princes to go out in secret. And now, it is completely sealed to anyone else because of their secret treasure.

Mark's curiosity only increased. He wondered what might be the treasure she wants to show him.

After making several lefts and rights for 15 minutes, they eventually reached the center of the cavern with a huge boulder sitting in the middle.

Because of enough lighting in this place, Mark got a clear look at the object. It was as big as 200 meters wide and 100 meters big.

"This is the treasure I told you about. This thing dropped into this land from the sky about a century ago and ever since then, it was stored in this place." As Shen Ling introduced the object, Mark walked forward with a look of shock on his face, "it is a fucking meteorite, and a high-quality one at that."

The system might be in the middle of an upgrade but his Sage eyes are still working the same just as with other skills.

Just a while ago, he found the info of those semi-divine weapons through the same method, not that he had some special eyes or something like the princess thought.

"Damn. She has really kept a great treasure." A look of greed clearly displayed on Mark's face as he stared at the boulder.

Shen Ling caught that and she proceeded to say, "Our kingdom has a bit of a different marriage tradition from your Phoenix Empire, Lu Zhen. Instead of the groom's family, the bride's family will be the ones to give the dowry to the groom.

And my father wanted to hand over this treasure to the Kun Empire as my dowry. But if you marry me, this will be yours to keep. Along with this dowry, you will naturally have the access to all the resources our kingdom has to offer.

Once I become the ruling queen, every bit of this kingdom will naturally belong to you. So, I reiterate that this marriage will only benefit you a lot."

By now, even Mark was convinced completely. That boulder is enough for him to put aside his reservations about everything and marry her. But, before agreeing to it, he must also inform her that he cannot compromise on a few things.

He then asked, "Everything is good but the main problem still existed. I will leave for another realm after my work is over. I might visit this place once in a while but I'm not gonna stand beside you at every minute as a normal husband does. What will you do about that?"

"As long as you visit me once a week or atleast a month, that's fine with me," replied the princess immediately, feeling excited that she had almost succeeded in achieving her current goal.

Mark asked the next question, "I probably will not be able to love you even in the future. Will you be okay with that?"

"Of course," Shen Ling nodded. "I'm okay as long as I was treated as a good friend. You can do that much, right?"

"I always thought that one shouldn't marry more than once. But, if I take this step, I might also have thoughts of marriages with other women in the future. Are you okay with it?" asked Mark.

Shen Ling's smile widened as she agreed to the terms once again, "I'll be fine. In fact, I recommend you do that. Marrying to increase the alliances is not bad. You will have my full support."

"My final question." Mark turned serious as he talked about the most important matter, atleast, in his view, "What would you have done if I had killed you on the spot and steal this treasure for myself? My secret would be safe and I would gain the meteorite for free. Unlike earlier, I have lots to gain from this act."

However, the princess didn't flinch a bit. Her smile didn't fade away from her face as she said, "If I planned to share my life with you, I should trust you with atleast this much, right? If I'm wrong, then, that's my fate. Well, I hope that you realize how much of a gamble I made to showcase my sincerity.

If you still aren't interested, then, I will think that it is my fate. After all, I have nothing else to convince you anymore."
