154 Meeting behind closed doors (1/2)

Samuel escorted Ryuu to a V.I.P. room which had various arrays placed inside it activated as soon as the doors of room were closed in such a way as that no outside person may spy on the meeting going on inside, a standard V.I.P. room creating protocol for Shangri-la Pavilion.

As Ryuu lowered his hood Samuel was stunned silence at seeing the person in front of as his heart skipped a beat, but he quickly took control of his heart as he felt a little bit disgusted with himself at being stunned silence upon seeing Ryuu in such an unsightly manner, as he began his conversation with Ryuu, ”Esteemed Daoist Sir would you like some Tea.”

Ryuu: ”Yes I would love some, Senior Samuel.”

Samuel quickly bowed towards him as he spoke, ”Please sir you do not embarrass me by calling me such titles you are our esteemed guest.”

Ryuu smiled as he replied, ”That may be true but whether it be my cultivation, age or experience I pale in comparison to you Senior.”

Samuel smiled at Ryuu: ”Daoist sir you really are not only humble but incredibly polite, a people like you are incredibly rare. But enough of this how may I be of service to you.”

Ryuu: ”Oh yes senior Samuel I want to sell a few items through Shangri-la Pavilion.”, as Ryuu was speaking he took a few items from his Space ring.

A couple of bottles of ”Tribulation Pills”, a couple of ”Tribulation Lightning Talismans”

Samuel quickly inspected them as he spoke with small smile,” This are all what I would refer to as premium quality each of them I will pay you at a mid level Immortal stones for both of them if you want to take cash just now but of you wait we will have a Grand Auction which will occur two months from now and I can assure you with such high quality products you can earn a lot more.”

Ryuu spoke with a sigh, ”As much as I would love to wait for it, I would love to venture out and I do not know if I would return here at all.”

Samuel gave a smile as he spoke, ”Daoist sir, you are the holder of Xegreacium card you may withdraw the amount from any branch of Shangri-la, you do not have to visit this branch particularly on top of this you have also the authority to invest on our business should you choose to.”

Ryuu was stunned on hearing that what did his Master gave him this time, he gulped at that as he took a sip from the delicious tea which calmed his nerve somehow, this card according to his Master was a belated gift from his sisters he did not understood the full implication about the card but now he did.

Samuel gave a puzzled stare at Ryuu, ”Did her Majesty not tell you about its functions when she gave you this gift?”

Ryuu sighed as he spoke, ”I haven't seen Her Majesty for a three years now as she has been busy with her work as for this card I received from her as a birthday gift and I was told to figure out its purpose since it had the markings of Shangri-la Pavilion I came to the first one I found after I left for adventuring.”

Samuel was stunned to hear someone who had been in such close relation and from what he had seen the person looked to be a teenager he was curious as well as afraid to think about the family background of Ryuu.

After a few minutes of discussion regarding various benefits and what not along with another cup of tea along with a few mouth full of cookies, cakes and biscuits later Ryuu stood up as he was bid farewell Samuel extended his hands making Ryuu confused as he spoke, ”Daoist Sir, it is the custom of the people of your planets to shake hands as a means to say good fortune and good luck.”

Ryuu extended his hands only to frown as he spoke, ”Oh before I forget Senior Samuel, I will be staying here for a few days can you recommend me any good inn for me stay.”

Samuel closed his eyes as he thought over Ryuu's question as he spoke, ”Actually Daoist Sir I might know the best inn for you to stay, but since I have unfortunately some urgent matters to attend I will not be able to show you personally and I hope you will not mind if I send one of my subordinates to show you the way.”

Ryuu: ”Please I will not mind in fact I will be extremely helpful to you for your help.”

Samuel then called for his subordinates while Ryuu had already put on his hood hididng his face already from the view as he was escorted to the inn.

As Ryuu left Samuel placed a hand on his furiously beating heart as he fell on the chair he was seating before as he muttered to himself, ”What kind of being is this Ryuu fellow? All the time my heart was going out of crazy I have heard and seen beauties being called as 'Kingdom Destroying', but today I saw the real deal if he goes without his hood he might cause a giant riot and the fall of the Empire I must warn the king, but to think it was a he not a she that made me feel like this.”, his face turned green at the thought.
