Sumano sipped his beer while trying to maintain a calm and composed look. He could tell that Saleen was not just an average mage. He had been in the business for several years now, and seeing people react the way Saleen did when he informed them about the high costs of living in Alchemy City was a rarity. These people were usually either rich, powerful, or both.
Most people would immediately ask him for ways to save money in Alchemy City. A handful of them would ask him about the techniques used to carry out missions successfully. These two pieces of information formed the bulk of his earnings and potentially earned him a pretty penny.
Not only did Saleen look unfazed, but the female mage wearing the colored robe looked fairly composed as well. Both the female warrior and servant looked unbothered. What Sumano did not understand was why the mage clad in the white robe had not reacted at all.
