Chapter 5 - Mysterious Book(2)

After breaking through the charm of the beautiful woman, Syden started to walk towards her. In front of him was a woman in her twenties, with a slender body and red hair coming down to her hips She was extremely alluring.

"I am here for an appraisal"

said Syden

"What type of product are we talking about sir?"

"A sealed book," said Syden as he retrieved the book from the inner pocket of his coat, and handed it to her carefully.

Taking a look at the book in her hands she exclaimed at how old the book was. Looking at it from different angles she sometimes exclaimed and even looked astonished. At this point in time, Syden even started to think that she was a scam as 15 minutes had already passed. As she was about to open her mouth, Syden sighed in relief.

"This book is extremely old and is at least around 40 years old. But it has an extremely high array sealing its contents, and the seal can only be forced open by a 4th tier mage."

"so, you are saying other than a 4 tier mage this can also be opened by another person"

"You are smart, sir, even though you look dull at the outside"

"so, what is the problem in opening this book?" said Syden in a confused voice

"It will cost you a lot for me to open this seal. Will you be able to afford my services? To be frank, judging from your attire you seem to not have enough money for that."

"I have enough to buy your services and don't step out of line. If you want I can pay in advance"

"Seems like I have stepped out of line, I am sorry for my previous transgression. To make up for it I will give you a discount of 10%" said the woman

"hmm, make it 30%."

"Pardon me, but what did you say?"

"I said make it 30% or I can go to another shop in a different town"

"Sir, that would be difficu-"

"I understand," said Syden in a cold voice as he started reaching out to the book. When his hand had just touched the book, The woman's voice made him come to a halt.

"Would it be possible to make it 20%?"

"I won't go lower than what I had just mentioned. Now if you could, please return my book."

"25%?" said the woman while making a pleading face.

"Deal!" while saying that he made a pleased expression inside his mind

"Thank you, sir, may I start with it right away?"

"Yes, how long would it take for you to break the array?"

"Two hours, would you like to wait?"

"yes"

"My name is Angelina, may I know yours?"

"Syden"

After talking with her, Syden sat in the lotus position while gathering mana by opening his domain.

Angelina was astonished to see a person with a domain and not to mention a kid utilizing it.

Even though she thought that she was scammed of money, she didn't complain as not many customers came to her for appraisal or printing arrays. Without thinking about it further, she started to break the array.
