Chapter 11: You want it - I have it
If there is any formula that you want to verify, for a fee, I can do it"
When he finished saying that, Mr. Eye of Wisdom sat down and another man got up and made a request.
This is how time passed, one transaction after another, Adryan began to worry that the person he was looking for had not attended the party and this would cause him many problems.
After a little while and one successful transaction, a masked woman rose from her seat.
"I'm looking for the Barbarian formula, is there anyone who has it? I'm willing to pay with pounds or something of equivalent value"- was the lady's request.
'There you are, beautiful lady,' was what Adryan thought with great joy upon hearing the woman's request, since she was exactly who he was looking for.
Looking around, the woman hoped someone spoke but seeing that no one said anything she sighed in defeat and was about to sit down but she just heard someone speak.
"I got it"
The lady quickly looked for the person who spoke and saw a man with his left arm raised wearing a coat and a mask on his face.
"How much do you want for it?" asked the woman with barely contained anxiety. She had been looking for the formula for months and was finally about to obtain it.
"400 pounds, would you like Mr. Eye of Wisdom to verify it?
"Deal and yes"- was the quick response of the woman.
A masked worker brought him paper and a pen on a tray. Adryan took it, wrote the formula on it and folded it, and placed it on the tray again, then the worker took the tray with the note to Mr. Eye of Wisdom.
When the worker got to the man's side, he put the tray on a table next to him.
Lord Wisdom Eye then took out a ring from a silver container.
It is a ring encrusted with many tiny diamonds. It is complicated and exquisite in design. In the middle of the ring is a dark green gem that looks like an eye and just looking at it made Adryan feel like a teenager again as he took his chemistry test...
Mister Eye of Wisdom put it in his left hand and quickly placed it on top of the note without opening it.
"Valid"-was all he said before quickly removing the ring and placing it back in the container.
So the worker took the tray with the note and took it to the lady. She then placed the 400 pounds on the tray and took the note with the formula and wasted no time in opening and reading it.
Potion Formula Sequence 8: Barbarian
Main ingredients:
*Grass of Madness.
*Core horn crystal of a Land Rhinoceros.
Supplementary ingredients:
*1 deep-grained Walnut.
*1 Fragrance Hornet Grass.
*10 ml of the extract obtained from soaking poplar bark.
*100 ml of liquor.
Sighing happily, the woman put the note away...she finally had the formula.
When Adryan received the money and counted it, he got up and spoke.
"I'm selling the formula for 'Briber', is anyone interested?"
This caused the woman who had just bought the formula for Barbarian to freeze.
After searching so long for the Barbarian formula she didn't think that the Briber formula would appear so fast and she didn't want to miss the opportunity.
But there was a problem...
She had no more money...
Cursing internally she still decided to give it a try after all who knew how long it would take her to find the formula again.
"I want it but I don't have money. I don't know if you would be interested in a weapon of a similar level?"
"I'm sorry but now I only need pounds but I'll be here at the next meeting so bring 800 pounds at that time and the formula is yours"
Upon hearing this, a weight was lifted from the lady's back and she simply nodded, she had the money in her house.
But Adryan still wasn't done and he made another request.
"I'm looking for the 'hunter' formula, is there anyone selling it?" - here was Adryan's shot at heaven the fact of getting money was the main reason for coming to this party but if he managed to get the formula for 'Hunter' he would have killed 2 birds with one stone.
When she heard this, the woman who had promised to come to the meeting next time raised her arm...
"I have it, it will be 200 pounds" - was what she said.
"Deal, Mr. Eye of Wisdom, please notify the formula"- Adryan said simply while in his mind he was screaming with joy.
After the previous process was repeated, Adryan paid the 200 pounds to the lady and the 20 pounds to Mr. Eye of Wisdom.
Holding the note with the formula in his hands, Adryan sighed and opened the note.
Potion Formula Sequence 9: Hunter
Main ingredients:
*Every drop of blood from an Abyss Demon Fish.
*50 grams of Panther Blood crystal
Supplementary ingredients:
*100 ml of purified water.
*7 red mint leaves.
*5 drops of July Wine Juice
*9 grams of dragon blood grass powder
Closing the note again Adryan put it in his pocket and just waited for the party to end....
After one hour, 3 unsuccessful and 1 successful deal were made. While this was going on, Mr. Eye of Wisdom rang a bell and got up from his chair.
"The party is over now, you will proceed to leave one by one, so wait your turn"
Fortunately, there were no big exchanges, but Adryan and the old man were the second to leave the party through 1 of the 5 different exits
They then returned to the billiards room on the second floor of Bravehearts Bar.
Where the old man told him how to know when the next meeting was through the newspaper and how to read the password in the advertising part.
Then Adryan bowed and asked if he could sleep in there for the night Mr. Old Man accepted and allowed him to sleep on top of the pool table as long as he cleaned the whole room before leaving.
On the morning of the next day, Adryan left.
5 minutes after Adryan left in the room next to the pool room there was a man who was alone
He is about twenty-eight years old, with a pale face and mischievous brown eyes, wearing a white shirt and a black vest.
"Who was it that spoke to the old man?" asked the man in the air.
Suddenly a woman was reflected in the window and came out like a ghost.
She was a young woman with a pale face, blonde hair, blue eyes, and delicate features. She was wearing a black gothic royal dress and a soft hat.
"Just someone curious" was all she said before sitting on a chair like a doll.....
Getting back to Adryan, now that he had money he was finally looking for a house to live in during the time he would stay in Backlund.
After getting into another carriage, Adryan asked the driver to take him to a company that does apartment rentals....
After a series of annoying transactions and annoying landlords, Adryan was finally inside his new house in a middle-class neighborhood in
Backlund after making a deposit for half a year of 25 pounds which left him with 155 pounds.
Putting his blue suitcase in a corner, Adryan took out the note with the formula of 'Hunter' again...
It was time to get the ingredients...
