180 Her anxiety. (1/2)
Since they did not require to build a connection using blood or Mana, people had to put their hands inside the Spatial pocket physically.
Creating those Spatial openings required more effort than stabilizing the space inside after hundreds of years of trial and error.
For such reasons, a Spatial pouch with the same amount of space inside it as the latest Spatial tools cost significantly more. Not to mention, she would have to find an antique one, which would probably be sold for many times more than its original price.
However, Hana did not let Ozul wait for much longer as she came in, bringing a small fist-sized pouch with a red string used to close it off from the top.
From the expressions on her face, anyone could tell that she was exhausted. She presented the pouch to Ozul before she sat down on the couch.
”This one is the best I could find in this short time with thirty square meters of space inside it,” Hana said with a tired face.
Ozul opened the red string and put his hand in it. Not surprisingly, half of his hand went inside, but the pouch looked untouched from outside.
He nodded his head with satisfaction before the first thing he put in was the book that was strapped to his side using Ball of Purity.
Next, he put the pile of Frozen Mana Crystals inside. After that, he tied the pouch to the side of his pants using the red string.
He felt much better now that he had this Spatial pouch. He wouldn't have to worry about dropping stuff whenever there was some difficult situation.
There was no weight because of the pouch either. Although it mattered little to him considering his power, it was still better to carry around a small fist-sized pouch than everything separately.
”What else?” Hana asked in a low voice. She had already used up most of her favors from the notable people around the city for the sake of whatever she had already brought here. Now she was unsure if she would really be able to keep her words.
”That's it... for now,” Ozul almost forgot that even all of this was not enough for the Harmony Leaves. However, he did not have anything in his mind right now.
”Really? Still... if there is anything I can do right now, do tell me,” Hana was a little excited at first, but then took control of herself and offered politely. Finding items so valuable was tedious at such an hour, even with all of her connections and resources.
Ozul could read her emotions, so he knew that she was as sincere as one could get. He was sure that she would not go back on her words later. Even if she did, he had many ways to deal with something like that.
Not to mention, she worked for the Ashin Family.
”Book on formations? Like a guide?” Hana asked to confirm.
Ozul nodded his head, so she replied, ”That can be easily done!”
”So... Can I take these Leaves now?” Hana asked before she was about to leave the room to get the book.
Ozul nodded his head as Hana smiled brightly and bowed almost 90 degrees.
”Thanks a lot! I really needed these Leaves!” Hana said softly before rushing out of the room like before.
Unlike before, it took her only a few minutes to get back with a book that had 'Learn Formations in 1 Day!' written on the cover.
Before she could say anything, the blonde man who had previously received Ozul came inside the room and whispered something in her ears.
”Uhm... Will you please give me a moment? I really apologize, but I will be back in a minute!” Hana said awkwardly.
Ozul took the book in her hands and nodded his head. Since he did not have any need to stay here any longer, it was better for him that she went away.
Hana walked away with the blonde-haired man in quicksteps. She seemed to be in a hurry. Ozul ignored that and waited for a couple of moments before also leaving the room.
The girls outside the room bowed respectfully and were about to ask if he needed anything, but they stopped noticing him walk away.
Ozul knew that if he stayed any longer, that woman might start talking after she came back, and it was best for him to leave before it got annoying.
He took the same path as he got in from. Walking in the hallway, he heard a couple of people dressed in uniform gossiping with each other.
”Did you hear about the Manager?”
”What? Did she fire someone again? Wow! It's the 7th person in this week!”
”Eh? No!... I mean that too, but did you hear about the other thing?”
”What thing?”
