20 Question, Answer, Register and Buying

The reason why I knew something or someone watching us is I feel it. You can said it an instinct that had been develop. When someone reach a certain limit point and break it they can know how to observer it properly. Their intent simple to discovered if we sharp our sense. I can feel it but cannot pin point the direction. However there someone who had their intent that why they needed other sense to be sharp. In other words you need be more cautious.

We arrived in front of the door Guild Master. The woman receptionist knock the door.

" Madam, we brought the guest for you. "

" Oh, come in then. " (???)

I just wanted to said " Madam? " because it refer to woman but when there a woman voice inside of this room clear my doubt. However there some doubt still not left in my heart. How and why this Merchant Guild Master is a woman. History from the knowledge I got in the future. Woman especially have a hard time to get respect from the man. You can said a woman is only tool for them. Especially for higher up in any guild. Noble and in royal family too. It not like woman cannot be a leader. It just some their rights cannot be fulfilled. Love, work and humanity towards woman is not too show up in this era. Basically if you as a woman make a small mistake. You end up become a puppet towards your enemy.

The door open and we saw a mature woman. Pink long hair towards the shoulder. Oval face and sharp pink eye. Her breast is D - cup only. Her butt is medium. A slender body and white skin. The clothes she wore is like fantasy blouse type. That pink color too. It because to same like her hair color or she like it?

" Thank you for bringing them here. You can continue your works. " ( ??? )

" Yes, Madam. "

The woman receptionist bow, walk out and close the door.

" My, my, I'm quite surprised the Guild Master of Merchant Guild is a woman. It must hard to achieve unless some one backing you behind the scene. " ( Daphia )

" Fufu, look like you can guess but doesn't know who it is right? " ( ??? )

As Daphia said, woman hard to climb to the top unless there some trick or someone help her took this position. If I remember correctly the merchant of Ostrana Empire who build this guild and The emperor at that time give that merchant permission to do it. Until today it spread around the world. However it should a man who always take command of Merchant Guild. You can said this is their headquarters. Something happened here. I hope this guild is not controlled by Empire.

" Please sit down on any chair you like. Let me introduce myself. My name is Irelia Ioran Ostrana. Fufufu, please relax yourself. My family is just a duke. As per policy the empire doesn't control this Guild. It just right now we need to take action on Merchant Guild. We got information from spy the previous Guild Master wanted to betray the Empire. It just we cut the root of the problem. That it all. " ( Irelia )

" I wonder why you suddenly tell us about this ? " ( Daphia )

" Fufufu, you must surprise that why I told you guys. Also this is a trust I put to you. I saw what you did to protect your family and from there I wanted to form a good relationship between you and me. " ( Irelia )

" I will listen first then we will decide what to do after that. " ( Daphia )

We sit down and Irelia prepare the tea for us. She give a fruit juice for me. Oh damn, I forget my body is still 6 years old. For now let just accept it.

" Well, from where to start. Yeah, your magic skill. I will not ask the question where or how you learn it. Let's just make a deal cooperation between me and you. With your magic skill there will many people will try to recruit you. Especially Magic Guild will try pull you in. Forcefully even your family got killed. " ( Irelia )

" What !? Why need to go that far from it !? " ( Daphia )

" This is true and a fact, Daphia. Please calm down. With your power, you can still fight them but you will be exhausted. Not just Magic Guild. The country or noble will try pull you out. The deal we make later will be benefit to you. You want to register in Merchant Guild right? " ( Irelia )

Daphia just sit down back. Her face little bit pale. She grit her teeth thinking how to settle this. Haaaaa....later I need to teach them not to react too impulse. Her strength more than that man but she used magic which exposed us to danger.

" Let make a trade. We will protect you in exchange for something else. What you can offer? " ( Irelia )

This woman, she really cunning. If just for protection is not enough. There something else. Daphia just glance to me. She must think how and what step need to move. The point is Daphia had less experience handle this situation. Maybe I should....no I must interject this conversation.

" Madam Irelia isn't? Just trade for protection is not enough. Even you don't want to know how my mother learn to have that kinda of magic. You still curious. Human or any living thing will have curious instinct. It just we can hold or not. One more thing, we have a big plan so better leave your plan to tied us in one place. I don't know but I can guess your background is not small. Maybe we should trade with both side benefit from each other." ( Aosar )

Irelia, just amaze what I said. She look at me and then Daphia. While she still keep change her sight. Daphia quickly pull me and put on her lap. Hugging me with her trembling hand. I just hugged her hand back to reduce the shaking. Well, to calm her down.

Irelia is a noble woman. A duke rank. If I remember correctly it start from Baronet, Baron, Viscount, Earl, Marques and Duke. Royal family is the top of all rank in the country. Irelia is the Duke daughter family and they related to royal family even distance from few generation.

" My, look like I make a mistake here. And who are you? " ( Irelia )

" Aosar is my name. Nice to meet you. " ( Aosar )

" Nice to meet you too. Your way of talk is not like kid at all. Well that doesn't matter. You should..no you must because of that power. There no choice. " ( Irelia )

I just smile like innocent kid. Irelia feel weird and her eye brow going up.

" Well, in our family there 3 more who can cast magic instantly. Even we over numbered. We will fight to the death. Even we in this private room. We can easily kill you. There many option for both of us. Why need to force us to tied with your. What I see is our side will suffer a lot. Let me tell you, our family objective is to travel around the world. Without any organization or country tied up with us in earlier stage will bring benefit for us. " ( Aosar )

Irelia brow knitted knowing we can easily kill the people. We still doesn't experience it yet but we can delay as much time we can to escape. She lean back and sigh.

" *sigh* Alright, I will not chase you further. Are you really a kid? For now I will let Daphia register. She need to take a test. If she pass, we need a basic information and registration complete. I saw a lot potential on your family when I look at you. So what thing you want to exchange for protection from me. " ( Irelia )

She really cunning. Her smile look sweet but it was a trap for who doesn't notice this thing. I just nodded. Irelia pass a few paper to Daphia. It seem for her test to become Merchant. She said a few thing to Daphia and told her to do on other table. There a few table in this room so Daphia immediately doing the test.

" Well, we want a few female slave as bodyguard and maybe become assistant in our shop. How about I show you our carriage. I bet it more than enough for you. It good to spend time while waiting my mother finish her test. " ( Aosar )

" I see, I hope it really good fo me. Fufu. " ( Irelia )

I tell Daphia that Irelia and me will going out. Ririel and Meth said they prefer to stay with Daphia. Irelia bring me to stable using other route to avoid attraction from public. Arrived to the carriage. She just titled her head because our carrier look different. I just opened the door and this is make her surprised.

" What the....how can the inside so big. Don't tell me space magic!? The something coiling near the wheel. This wheel..made from rubber? " ( Irelia )

" As you guess, inside of this carriage. We using space magic. Our storage at the back of carriage using space magic too. The foiling thing near the wheel call spring to reduce the vibration. The rubber wheel can make our carriage move smoothly. I can provide the method to making it. Since you from Duke family. It will help you for Merchant Guild and Ostrana Empire. " ( Aosar )

Irelia amaze with this vehicle. She going inside and check various thing on it. She also checking the storage. Try put in and out of the item inside of it. I also showing the magic array without using the needed the specific attribute. Going back to her office. Daphia already done register and there a gold card in her hand. She so happy pass the test. After that, Irelia pass me a paper, feather and ink to write the method for build the carriage I showed earlier.

We also discuss a few things such as protection, house and other item to trade because the method and information making the carriage we had.

" You are not normal kid. By the way how your mother cast magic so easily. There no chanting word or any device to cast the magic? " ( Irelia )

I just sighing. I lean back at the sofa and think what to said to her.

" Well, for now how about you keep this as secret for a while and depend on situation you can spill it out because this thing will spread like wild fire. " ( Aosar )

" Hmmmm, I will promise then. It seem this magic anyone can do it? " ( Irelia )

I nodded, it true anyone can do it however there were few problem for people who already used to chanting.

" Everyone can do it. Except for Non - Attribute because they have one word need to chant. Plus they easy to understand for each of it. The problem lies on person itself. Me, my mother and others in our family can easily casting magic without chanting. It called " Chantless" magic. It just need to know how to form a magic via imagination. " ( Aosar )

" Imagination huh....I bet this will be hard because of the lack of knowledge right? " ( Irelia )

" Yes, also for individual training they needed to feel around them. After that they need to feel in the body too. That what I heard from mother. However there were trick to shorten time training to feel Mana. On the part where we needed to feel mana inside our body. By touching their back and flow our Mana into it. " ( Aosar )

The first problem can be solve easily. The other problem will take a lot of time.

" That can be settle easily. The most hard is people mind set on chanting the magic. " ( Aosar )

Irelia nodded. She must knew every person cast the magic by chanting. To change to Chantless is hard and time consuming. We need to be careful with people mind set already used to chant the magic.

" Hmmmm....there must other way other than straight go to Chantless. " ( Irelia )

" There a method for it. Chant Revocation. We just shorten the chant or by saying one word to cast a magic. This help magician do not have to take time too long casting magic during battle. After that we can try proceed to chantless. The only we need to solve is knowledge and imagination. For now I will write and show the method training for this thing. Since you're duke family, you can try on your cousin or any relative to yours. " ( Aosar )

I took another paper and write and few of magic training.

" I really appreciate for it. I guess both of us really have a lot benefit by doing this. I'm looking forward doing more business with you in the future. " ( Irelia )

" Same here. " ( Aosar )

Both us hand shake and Irelia asked me to show how the magic training is. I just show simple spell to avoid destroying the furniture in the office. She surprised and amaze how we can do it. It hard but she understands my teaching.

" Well, you needed slave right? Let's go to Merchant Guild Slaver. Our guild also sold the slave. It just not many people can accommodate it. There other Slave trade but I will recommend it other time. Luckily your time is good. Our goods just arrived and all of them might statisfied you. " ( Irelia )

I nodded and all of us going out of the office moving to the other part of Merchant Guild building.
