A bewildered expression appeared in the face of the patriarch as he said.
"….It is not beeping?"
Beeping?…. Oh he probably means the lie detector inside the room, lexun group are truly professional to even provide one for every conference room.
"Mythic….. child do you understand what you have said? If there was indeed a mythic grade item involved… then the association will not sit idle"
" I know… but to activate it...a huge sacrifice must be made. I assume the artifact that he stole from your wife somehow is related to souls"
" t..that's correct, d..do you somehow know of the artifact function?"
" I am not sure of how it function…."
Of course I lied to him well it was half a lie so the detector doesn't go off. I know what it does but I truly don't know how exactly does it function. If I also told him that I know of its functions. He will suspect me as either one of them or I have very worrisome skill or artifact.. so it is better to keep it unknown.
" Alright, Arthur I'm not sure how do you know all of this but once I confirm this I might have to inform the association. If what you said is true. Then not only will I get my revenge, but also have chance to build a better connection with the association.
Great, now that the group will never be able to summon that demon. This will save a lot of trouble from the death of an important character and the eradication of a strong villain group.
The summoned demon managed to kill the future saintess who was part of the main lead. Ezec, had the power to manifest into a misty form that makes him immune to almost all attacks. However, his biggest threat was the Devine holy power of Sia. That's why he killed her before she grows.
" Arthur, I assume you are looking for more than money. The value of such information is not worth some cheap gold"
"..."
Honestly that's all wanted…
…but I can't just say that right?
…Haha?
'With a stiff expression I tried pushing my luck and said " indeed the reason why I shared this with you specifically, is that I would like the legendary rank martial art [Gaias teachings] in your possession"
as soon as I said those words a heavy suffocating pressure befall me.. I instantly felt that what I was asking for was too much..
" …and I will return to you in the future an item with the same value"
The pressure has lessened as I mentioned a return.
" hoo? Just what can a weak child bring to me"
" sorry with all due respect sir, this is the same child who knew that valuable information of a hidden organization and of the martial arts in your disposal. I will even sign a mana contract as well"
After a deathly silence that took the place. The patriarch replied "I will first have to check. However, there is one condition. I will make the contract myself, would that be alright?"
YESSS
" I don't mind at all"
He even save the cost for tha mana contract. I can't even afford one yet.
" ….Fine.. I will send someone to you once everything has been resolved"
.

After telling the patriarch about the hidden whereabouts of the villain organization. He said something about a doing a council meeting and mobilizing and bla bla and then he paid the fees 500 thousand for the Lexun merchant and also for me as well… it was nothing much to him. after all the weekly allowance of an Elite family heir was 100 thousand gold coin. After signing the mana contract he finally sent me this bad boy.
" here is the thing that will literally make me a turtle"
[Gaia's teachings]
[ Legendary rank martial arts]
{ Description: the teachings and techniques of this martial art scripture will grant its practitioner with a body more solid than earth. Boosting physical strength by a whole rank above the over all rank. the body will go into a huge development both physically and mentally }
Hell yeah.. the true value of this technique appears in its second feature. Mental development, with this I can use 'that arcane' without worrying of the side effects like going mad or losing consciousness.
" now I'm literally a turtle"
