After hearing Luo Meng's explanation, James nodded and asked, "Where is the location of that secret realm? Can anyone enter it?"
"The secret realm is located in a nearby medium empire and is strictly controlled by them. Only those who have been granted a quota by the empire can enter.
Of course, if your background is strong enough, you could arrange for someone to enter the secret realm, as long as the number of people you send is limited." Luo Meng explained.
"Well, as part of accepting your apology, you can give me a quota to enter it. I know someone who would be interested in entering the secret realm." James said it calmly.
"No problem, leave it to us. Is there anything else?" Luo Meng smiled and responded.
"Well, you could also waive the commission on my items at the auction, so I receive 100% of it. Also, give me some paper and a pen, I want to buy some low level treasures." James added.
"Very well, we can agree to both requests." Luo Meng said, nodding as she handed the paper and pen to James.
Subsequently, James wrote down the items that were needed for Little Snow and Little Lion's evolution until rank 7.
Little Snow's qualification was diamond, while Little Lion's was only platinum. So, there were three sets, one set for Little Snow to upgrade its rank to level 7 later, and two sets for Little Lion to upgrade twice at peak rank 5 and rank 6. Afterwards, James put the paper and pen on the table and said,
"And the last thing is, can you give me the money first, around half of the sword's price, after you have verified its rank? Because I literally don't have any money on me right now." James shrugged his shoulders.
"We can also do that." Luo Meng replied while cursing James in her heart,
'What the hell is he talking about? He has a lot of treasures, but he doesn't have any money on him? I would be stupid if I believed that nonsense.'
"Okay, I will go upstairs to the restaurant to have a meal, you can send the money right away after verifying its rank." James immediately stood up and drank the wine that he had requested and said,
"What a great wine! Thanks for the wine." His eyes lit up when he drank the wine, because it was the best wine that he had ever tasted, and comparing it to the wine that he had just bought was like comparing heaven and a speck of dust.
James immediately took the jar and placed it in his inventory while walking towards the door.
"Oh right, I might add another treasure later if I'm in a good mood." James said, before his figure couldn't be seen by the trio from the room.
'My precious wine.' Old Bai sighed.
"Old Bai, why didn't you beat him up when he acted like that? He shouldn't be stronger than you, right?" Luo Xian'er curiously asked Luo Bai.
Old Bai could only explain slowly to Luo Xian'er about his opinion regarding this young master James.
At the same time, James proceeded to the fourth floor and sat at a table with a window to see the scenery of the bustling city again.
However, this time was different because he noticed numerous people walking on the street, some were riding on their beasts, and a few were even riding on their swords, looking almost like immortals.
'Fck, I really want to be able to fly on my sword too. But I can only do so when I reach rank 7 Martial Master, because only when I reach that level can I release my Qi outside of my body, channel it into my sword, and use it as a means of transportation or as a method of attack.
However, I can't do it freely and for a long time as a rank 7 Martial Master, as it would drain the Qi quite fast.' James sighed.
Subsequently, James checked the message Minji had sent just before he entered the building, which he had ignored since he needed to focus on his earlier conversation as it could impact his future development and life.
"Brother, how was it? Did you kill a lot of beasts? When will you come back?" Minji asked.
"It's good, I finally found a big city and just finished with some matters so that we can move here and live here temporarily."
After noticing that her brother had finally replied after a while, Minji quickly sent another message,
"Wow, how big is the city? Is there a lot of delicious food?" Minji unknowingly drooled her saliva as she imagined eating a lot of tasty food.
"The city is super big, and of course there is a lot of delicious food here, especially seafood, as this city is basically located at the beach."
"Minji wants to go to the big city too. When can I follow you? And don't forget to bring lots of delicious foods when you come back."
"Don't worry, I'll bring you to the big city after this and buy you whatever you want. Oh right, I just remembered another matter. It's like opening the gift earlier when I awakened the system. Wish me luck so that I can become stronger faster and protect Minji better."
James just said it casually because he was going to refine the breakthrough pill and there was a 1% chance of failure, and he explained it to Minji in a simple way since opening the gift pack and refining the pill are both related to luck.
However, unbeknownst to James, what he just said casually was about to bring him an enormous amount of profit. Because when Minji read that message, she prayed that she hoped her big brother would get good things again like before and become stronger quickly so he could buy a lot of delicious food for her.
As she prayed, the necklace around her neck lit up dimly for a split second again, exactly as it had when James opened the welcome gift pack.
