Chapter 104 - 104. Mark Of Magi And The Lucky Coat Of Arms (1/2)
As we walked out to Northern Forest, Ingles can't help noticing that I had missed Blake's store altogether. ”Daddy, aren't you going to Uncle Blake's store? His weapons are ready, am I right?” I smiled as we passed NoOne's camp. ”Yes dear, they are ready. I'm here to ask for the appraisal pricing from Mister NoOne.”
”Be wary of the dangers lurking in the forest...” NoOne said in his usual greeting. He should change it ”WATCH OUT... Audemars is robbing me of my credits with his incredulous amount of iron thingy that made me bankrupt...!!!” Hah Hah Hah...
”Could you evaluate and tell me these prices before I could tell Blake on how much these could be sold?” I showed the throwing knives set, throwing stars set, 3 bladed cyclone twister, 6 bladed cyclone twister and the dragon fang dagger.
”Very good pieces indeed. I offer you 60 for the knives set, 50 for the stars set, 80 for the 3 bladed cyclone twister, 120 for the 6 bladed cyclone twister and 250 for the Dragon fang dagger.”
”Alright Mister NoOne... Thank you so much for the offer. I would like to take them back at this moment.” and NoOne handed me back the weapons and I stored it back into the storage bag.
”Just one more question, how much do you think this is worth?” I said and showed him the Mark of Magi staff since Patricia was being led away by the children where they PK over boulders, fallen tree trunks and at the same time shoot their way with the Assassin's compact crossbow. Since there we PKing, they used only one compact crossbow instead.
NoOne looked at the Mark Of Magi Staff and held it in his hands and he calculated with his fingers and toes and then gathered some sticks to get the appraisal for the buying right. ”I offer you 12,150 credits for this Mark of Magi,” he said finally.
”12,150 here means 121.5k outside then. Fuyoo... This would make a great killing but too bad it is not for real or sale at the moment. I take this back, please.” as I reached out and took the Mark of Magi back and stored in my storage bag.
”Are you a Blacksmith? You had been showing me these pieces and asked for my selling price and you had sold me tons of iron amulets before. Your children wear nice earrings. I would offer you 80 for that.” he finally spoke some words rather than his irritating greeting.
”80 credits eh? Hmm... Can, no problem. I will get back to you right after this game if hunting and hide and seek. I'm raining my wife, Patricia on her wizardry skills and see if there are any improvements with the lucky charms.”
”Be wary of the danger that lurks in the forest.” There he goes again... And I waved at him and went on my way towards Patricia who was watching the kids performing acrobats and the shooting those Arrows between their legs, bending backwards and shooting them et cetera. If they didn't use the Arching Shot, their shots would be way off-target.
”Sorry to keep you waiting for babes, I've finally gotten the prices that I need. What are the kids are doing right now?” I asked since they hadn't been acting this way since the last time we went out to the Northern Forest.
”Shall we start? Start by frost or lightning attacks without the coat of arms and let me know the results.” I said and she looked at me with a kind of look that could swallow me whole. ”Did I just said anything wrong?” I asked and discovered that she needs to have a stick in her hand to conjure up those tricks up her sleeves.
”Where's the Shepherd's Crook, dear? Did anything happen to it?” Patricia asked as she squinted her eyes and stared deep into my face.
”Uuhh... Something did happen to it. I don't know how to explain it to you but here it is...” I purposely pulled out from the end of the staff and she saw that there is a metal ferrule at the end of it. She held it and the moment it was in her hands, her eyes were big as saucers and she slowly slides it out.
”Oh. My. God... This. Is. The. Mark. Of. Magi.” she exclaimed in total surprise and disbelief that her normal Shepherd's Crook had turned into something so damn magnificent. ”+2250 damage and +2250 mana. My passive spells of frost and lightning take up only 5 points per use. My mana right now has slightly more than 2.9k...wow...wow...wow...this is the bestest present that I've gotten so far.”
”Don't tell anyone that this is made from level 15 refined iron pieces. It was +10x15x15. If its a Level 4 iron then the rating is only +600 for damage and mana.”
”WOW... I could all hit all day with his. But I'm not sure how to replenish my Mana. And... thisisthefirsttimeimbeingawizard...” Patricia mentioned the last word so softly that it sounded like a squeak from a mouse.
”What did you just said? All I could hear was bzzt bzzt bzzt...” I looked at her quizzically because she was talking in an incoherent manner. ”I said... This is the first time I'm being a wizard.” and finally I realised what she was trying to say.
”You mean, all this while after you graduate from the Archmage, you had not fired a single frost or lightning bolt before?!?!” I asked and she just smiled meekly like a lamb... ”Only during the practical and theory and the final exams...” she answered and I slapped my forehead again, missing the mosquito that was feasting on it.
”Never mind, I have confidence in you. Children, retreat.” when the children heard that shout, they repeated it and they were able to run 25% faster than normal and stayed behind the lines with me.
