BXBX NOVEL 116 Chapter 116
“Cough… ehem! Of course, I know but I just want to see how formidable the researchers of Daydream are” Rezen replied awkwardly, lying without a hint of remorse
Unfortunately, despite his straight-up lie, Macy didn’t believe him
“Don’t look down on Daydream’s researchers! Don’t you know that we also supply Mystic Items to the 7th rank mages?” Macy said proudly
To create a Mystic Item is not that hard but for some reason, using them requires the effort of a 7th rank mage no matter how weak the item was
Even a Mystic Item that can only defeat ungraded mages still requires the power of a 7th-rank mage
This is an already established fact in the world but somehow, Rezen doesn’t think that it was that simple. But since his power is still currently too weak, he threw the matter at the back of his head
As Daydream is one of the top companies not just in the Eastern Country but also in other countries, they also have the backing of these legendary mages
It’s just that those mages wouldn’t normally move nor contact the people of the ‘secular world’
“Your ore– metal potatoes once melted can be condensed to the smallest point no matter the quantity! Based on the findings, in theory, if there are enough quantity, armors that can easily block spells at the 6th grade can be made while retaining the item’s lightness!”
“Not just that, compared to other defensive items, even the force would be blocked! Your ores have the potential for a great technological breakthrough!”
“Once Daydream manufactured the possible items, those crazy researchers would be recognized as top-class! As such, they wouldn’t stop pestering and asking me for more ores!”
If not for those pesky researchers, Macy wouldn’t visit the ‘hateful’ Rezen again
It’s just that, in the contract, Macy couldn’t disclose her ‘supplier’s’ information.
As a result, she can only come here personally
“Woah, they are that great?” Rezen can’t help but exclaim
The defensive magic robes of this world in Rezen’s eyes are actually quite lacking. He obtained a defensive magic robe that could block spells in the 5th grade but it was not that helpful to him
Rezen has that defensive robe but even if it can block the spell itself, the resulting force or ‘after shock’ would still slam on Rezen’s body
The vibrations cannot be blocked and Rezen would still die once he received a spell in the 5th grade. As a result, these defensive magic robes are not that popular
However, if Macy’s words are true then the metal potatoes are indeed revolutionary
After all, for a magic world, Rezen finds the items in this world to be quite crude
Where are the swords that could increase a mage’s lethality by a whole realm?
Where are the magic wands that could increase a spell’s might or make it easier to cast them?
Where are the magic scrolls that can release spells once torn?
This world might have those but the strange thing is that only the legendary 7th mages can use them
“Alright, I’ll see what I can do! I’ll deliver one ton of metal potatoes in a week!”
The metal potatoes are mutated plants. Not all the potato seeds that Rezen planted would mutate into metal potatoes
“What? That’s not enough! Those crazy researchers want at least 1 million pieces a week!” Macy exclaimed
After all, to create a mage robe using the metal potatoes that are enough to completely block spells at the 6th grade, not just one or two are needed
“A million?!” Rezen can’t help but inhale a sharp breath
How many potato seeds would he need to grow in a week to procure that many metal potatoes?
Even if Rezen has ten bodies that are impossible!
“Impossible! That’s absolutely impossible!” Rezen said while waving his hand dramatically. As much as he loves farming, it is definitely impossible to grow one million metal potatoes a week
“What? Why not?!” Macy cried out. If she doesn’t meet the demand of those researchers, they wouldn’t stop pestering her
After all, those researchers are all obsessed with their work. Most of them don’t care about anything else aside from their research and with their importance, they have the ability to ignore people’s status
Even Macy couldn’t easily antagonize those people
“Impossible is impossible!” Rezen replied. He can’t possibly say that even if he grows ten arms, it’s impossible to plant a million seeds in a week, right?
“My daughter, that is not the way to negotiate”
Suddenly, a voice entered the ears of the two and when they looked at the source, they saw a middle-aged man floating from the sky that starts to descend
To fly in the sky without riding on a sheet of element… only a 6th fusion rank mage can do something like that!
As a result, Rezen’s nerves tensed. He doesn’t have the power to resist a 6th fusion rank mage!
The man descended and stood in front of Rezen. This man looks like an older male version of Macy
“Daddy!” Macy said in surprise. She didn’t expect to see her father here
“Daddy?” The side of Rezen’s lips rose. From that, Rezen inferred that Macy might indeed be a rich spoiled girl
However, he only mused for a moment when he remembered the situation he is in currently
The Chairman! That’s the Chairman of the Daydream!
As a colossal force, the only way to be Daydream’s chairman is to have both great magical prowess and business skills
Rezen can’t help but be fearful and that is suddenly when two flashes of light suddenly appeared and stood in front of him
These two figures were wearing red mage robes and their faces were covered with white masks with no other feature
“Scarlet Death Squad of the Preston Family” The Daydream’s chairman; Racy Kergalle mused
The Scarlet Death Squad is one of the teams of the Preston Family and this particular team would not hesitate to sacrifice themselves for the sake of accomplishing their mission. As a family that even the government was wary of, the Preston Family’s foundation and power were extremely deep
These two members of the Scarlet Death Squad both emitted the aura of 5th fusion rank mages
Greenwood City is just an average city with hundreds of mages at the 5th fusion rank and several mages at the 6th fusion rank
However, even then, the Preston Family alone could erase such a city with their mages
Families that have roots and foundation in the capital and have power all over the country are way stronger than your average city!
“As expected of the holder of the Preston Family’s Token of Gratitude, you even have two 5th fusion rank mages guarding you” Kacy commented
As Rezen is unaware of many things in this world, he is not aware of just how special the Token of Gratitude was
If he ever used his token’s authority to the fullest, it would not be impossible for him to mobilize tens of mages at the 5th fusion rank. Earning the help of a 6th fusion rank mage is also within the possibility
If Claude is any other person, he wouldn’t be able to ask for a token from his family
The water in this world runs deep and Rezen that always holed up inside his farm and only explores territories of magic beasts is certainly lacking information
“They are my guards?”
Rezen was surprised. He didn’t even notice that there were two people protecting him from the dark
As expected of the elites from the Preston Family! With their hiding abilities, Rezen’s defense is a joke
This made him realize that he also needed to plant surveillance-type conscious Spirit Plants if he wants to prevent a similar thing from happening
“Everyone, don’t be alarmed. I’m not here to harm Rezen. In fact, even if I want to, I can’t. I made a contract with Claude using a magic contract stating that I could never harm Rezen in any way” Kacy said with a smile
“Brother Claude?”
Rezen blinked his eyes repeatedly. Just how much help did Claude give to him in the dark?
“Indeed, you might already know this but the Dark Saint is a person that repays favor and enmity a thousand times”
“Not only did you save his life, you even helped by giving the treasure that could identify the Clay Doll Master’s clay dolls. Those that contributed greatly for the greater good, the Dark Saint has never held back in trying to help them”
Claude’s reputation is clear to everyone. A saint to the common and kind people but a terrifying devil to the evil
The Clay Doll Master has terrorized humanity for years. He killed countless people directly and indirectly
In terms of causing troubles that resulted in massacres, the Clay Doll Master is good at that
Even if he doesn’t kill those people personally but with the use of his clay dolls, he sowed seeds of discord
There were already a few cities that were plunged into chaos all because of his manipulations
Since Rezen contributed the Truth-seeking Rod and also saved Claude’s life, those two accomplishments are enough for Claude to ensure his best to keep Rezen safe
