GDK 623: Not interested in it anymore!

These so-called divine weapons might have been useless to Han Shuo, but there would surely be flocks of people on Profound Continent who would do anything to get their hands on these items.

Firenze stared foolishly as he carried the few objects sacred to the Church of Light in his arms. He did not know how to react for a period of time.

Firenze knew just how much he could earn by auctioning off these items. However, as these holy objects were of Church of Light origin, the Church would certainly be very eager to regain possession of these items and would surely do everything in its power to do so. As Han Shuo had killed the Light Pope, the relationship between the Lancelot Empire and the Church of Light had worsened to the point where reconciliation was impossible. The Church of Light regaining these divine weapons would be tantamount to them regaining enormous powers.

Lawrence suddenly opened his mouth, “Bryan, forget about it. Let’s not sell off these divine weapons.”

Han Shuo shot a glance at Lawrence in a half-smile and leisurely said, “You can be at ease. There’s nothing to be afraid of even if the Church of Light were to reclaim these items with gold coins. The Light Pope was just using these weapons, but in the end, he was still ended by me. If the Light Pope could do nothing, what could others do?”

“That’s not what I mean.” Lawrence pointed to Amyes standing beside him and said to Han Shuo, “Take a look at Amyes.”

Han Shuo was startled and immediately turned his gaze.

Amyes’ eyes were fixed on the divine weapons in Firenze arms, flickering with brilliant rays. His jaws were moving, as though wanting to say something, but he was too hesitant to make a sound.

With just only look, Han Shuo immediately understood what Lawrence meant. He inwardly reprimanded himself for neglecting one thing – Amyes cultivated in the elemental energy of light.

Amyes was Han Shuo’s brother-in-law. Although he did not have much interaction with Han Shuo in the past, he was, after all, Emily’s brother. Besides, before Han Shuo rose in prestige, Amyes had provided Han Shuo with plenty of assistance. These divine weapons of the Church of Light might be nothing in Han Shuo’s eyes, but they carried an unimaginable appeal for Amyes.

“Oh! Silly me, almost forgot that Mister Amyes cultivates in light magic,” Han Shuo said as he put his hand on his forehead as though suddenly realizing that he had made a mistake. He then said to Firenze apologetically, “These, erm, goodies should be kept within the family. Let’s give these things to Mister Amyes!”

Amyes was instantly stirred when he heard Han Shuo’s words. He said in an embarrassed manner as he waved his hands, “It’s too precious! It’s too precious! I can’t take it!”

Firenze, carrying the few divine weapons, thinking that he would be able to exchange them for a great sum of money for his southern border, indecisively glanced back and forth between Amyes and Han Shuo.

“Father!” Fanny, standing beside Firenze, softly cleared her throat.

Firenze sighed and most unwillingly handed the items to Amyes. He groaned, “You lucky bastard, these are riches enough to establish two legions of armies, and it’s all being given to you so gratuitously!”

“How could I take these… It’s too much… “ Amyes rubbed his hands in excitement. His handsome and erudite-looking face was fully written with unrestrainable thrill. Although he was saying that it was too much to accept, his two arms were spread wide open.

“Too much? Great, nevermind then!” Firenze detested hypocrites the most and he was annoyed to begin with. When the few divine weapons almost fell into Amyes’ wide open arms, Firenze suddenly put on a serious face and pulled them back.

Amyes looked humiliated as he mumbled, “That…ermm… this…” No one knew what he was trying to convey.

“Hehe!” Fanny couldn’t help but laugh when she saw Firenze deliberately teasing Amyes out of annoyance. Others, too, found the scene funny and couldn’t hold back their laughter.

“Alright, alright, I will ask Jack to get you some gold coins. Stop being so stingy!” Han Shuo raised his voice and said to Firenze smilingly.

“Should have told me so earlier!” Firenze muttered and handed those treasures to Amyes. He groaned, “Hypocritical fellas like you are the most annoying of all. You obviously wanted the items but kept on acting like you don’t. Pfft!”

Amyes put on an awkward smile and remained silent. The treasures in his arms had washed away any unhappiness in his heart. He knew of Firenze’s temperament and naturally would not hold a grudge for a matter so trivial.

“Bryan, you must get me at least one and a half million gold coins. Otherwise, I will not allow Fanny to tie the knot with you!” Firenze gave Amyes a supercilious look, let out a short, sinister laugh, and coerced Han Shuo.

“Father!” Fanny shouted angrily and glared Firenze upon hearing his words.
