An Order from Alchemy City (Part 2)

"What else can happen? The people of Alchemy City have all agreed that the magic nuclei business must not be snatched away by anybody else. Oh yes, Saleen, sell me some magic nuclei at a cheaper price. I'm afraid I won't be able to buy them in the future when Metatrin City is gone."

Hogina was someone without any conscience, so she was able to say what she said. What she meant was that if Saleen did not agree to the request, Metatrin City was finished. As for her, she wanted to buy as many things as she could from Metatrin City before that.

Saleen and Lex looked at each other and laughed. Lex said, "So this is an order and not a negotiation. Hogina, when is Alchemy City expecting a reply?"

"Ah? I forgot!" Hogina said and quickly adjusted her magic chords to search for the directions that had been imprinted into her brain through magic.
