The high elf asked with a sneer, "What is that supposed to mean?"
"I'm saying your credibility is very low, and the integrity of what you have is suspect."
The realm lord laughed. He laughed for a long time. The first sage waited for him to finish laughing.
The realm lord said, "Don't play with me, old man. I don't have time to waste right now. If you don't want what I have, then go down below to do your own research. Besides, I'm sure you won't do that because you knew I had exactly what you wanted, and you are going to get it anyway, so don't try to act like you don't want it."
He is certain that he has what the first sage needs because there are very few who have his system to help them acquire and analyze information safely. He is also certain that the first sage didn't come to him by chance.
