"Does that mean I can translate the Book of Prometheus as long as I master this recognition spell?"
"Of course it's not that simple. You also have to master ancient Greek. Recognition spells and ancient Greek are both necessary."
"Then give me a specific time."
"It's a long process," Nagrand Vagris said slowly. "I can't rush it."
"But we won't be in England for long."
"I can't do anything about that."
"How about this? I'll inform my superior and ask him to invite you to our place to translate. Trust me, we can provide you with a stable and quiet environment. You can translate there without worry."
Nagrand Vagris's face darkened.
Rouen Fasilis was using this again.
But this time, Nagrand Vagris was helpless too.
After all, he had received their payment.
It was useless even if he wanted to go back on his word.
Rouen Fasilis had clearly predicted that Nagrand Vagris would bring up the past again.
He didn't give him a chance to go back on his word.
"This translation is really complicated. There's no room for mistakes."
"Seven days at most. If you can't finish in seven days, I can only call my superior."
"You're making things difficult for me."
"But you're making things difficult for me too." Rouen Fasilis had a smile on his face.
He knew people like Nagrand Vagris very well.
If he didn't force him, if he wasn't forceful, he would be the one to take the initiative.
Rouen Fasilis knew very well that they wouldn't get Chen Zhao's support for this risky operation.
Chen Zhao hoped that they would run into trouble halfway and then return dejectedly.
But Rouen Fasilis and Lisa would definitely be punished by Chen Zhao.
After all, they were the ones who started this.
The only thing they could do now was to borrow Chen Zhao's power.
They could only threaten Nagrand Vagris with groundless threats.
Nevertheless, Rouen Fasilis wasn't afraid that Nagrand Vagris would really ask for proof.
After all, Blood Mary of Wendao 23 and Zhang Tianyi of Dragon Tiger Mountain wouldn't be exposed.
They definitely wouldn't give themselves away.
Plus, Rouen Fasilis was very confident. Nagrand Vagris didn't dare to really ask for proof.
"I can return one dragon tooth to you."
"Hand over the money, hand over the goods. There's no reason to return the commission you've paid."
Rouen Faxi was a veteran. How could he let Nagrand Vagris go back on his word?
If Nagrand Vagris really dared to break the rules, Rouen Faxi would really call Chen Zhao and kill this old monster, even if it meant destroying everything.
"A week is too short," Nagrand Vagris said.
It wasn't that he didn't have a way, he just didn't want to pay such a huge price.
[Use Recognition Spell to identify the ancient Greek characters in the Book of Prometheus.]
It required too much mana. If Nagrand Vagris really translated all the content in a week, he wouldn't be able to do it.
In that case, he would become a cripple.
If the other party offered a high enough price.
He could even stay in bed for half a year.
However, the price that the other party had offered was merely to meet his standards.
Even if they did, they wouldn't be able to earn much.
"Why don't you let me bite this girl, and I promise to translate it for you in a week?"
"Count, I don't like to joke around."
"I don't like to joke around either. The price you're offering isn't enough."
"What else do you want?"
"Nothing."
"A month," Nagrand Vagris said. "It can't be shortened."
"Ten days, at most ten days." Rouen Faxi only took a small step back.
In the end, the two bargained for a while and agreed on fifteen days.
Nagrand Vagris might be a noble, but he was very low-key most of the time.
After all, to humans, he was an anomaly.
He tried not to fight if he could.
He also didn't want to have a grudge with others.
Especially when the other party's identity was unknown and he was very powerful.
Rouen Faxi didn't want to force him too much either.
After all, he was just using his connections to intimidate others.
Thus, both sides took a small step back.
After Rouen Faxben left with his men, Nagrand Vagris looked at the rubbing of 'The Book of Prometheus' and immediately felt a headache coming on.
Translating the Book of Prometheus was also a big problem.
The ancient Greek characters were divided into simplified version and mysterious version.
In ancient Greece, most nobles only learned the simplified version.
The mysterious version required one to learn the simplified version and be proficient in special recognition spells.
Then they could be translated with recognition spells.
Before Nagrand Vagris donated the original version of the Book of Prometheus, he had translated it once.
But at that time, he wasn't strong enough and didn't have recognition spells.
Therefore, what he translated was only a simplified version.
Later on, he inadvertently mastered a special identification spell.
It was only when he saw the original Book of Prometheus in the British Museum that he realized that he had missed out on something.
But to activate the recognition spell, it required a huge amount of magic power.
Nagrand Vagris didn't think of translating it again.
After all, it was a thankless task.
But this time, he could only brace himself to translate.
…
Famtis sent Raymond to Steven's villa.
Evan immediately dodged Raymond.
He had seen Raymond before, but at that time, Raymond was just a small snake.
Now, Raymond was more than ten times his size.
Even though the smell was similar, Evan still didn't dare to approach Raymond.
Steven came out to greet Raymond in his big pants.
Raymond dashed out of the container.
Steven and Raymond greeted each other.
"Raymond, I'm sorry for starving you for two days."
Raymond curled up into a ball and ignored Steven, sunbathing by the pool.
Judging from Raymond's appearance, he was clearly holding a grudge against him.
Steven changed the topic awkwardly. "Famtis, go get Raymond some food."
Steven also wanted a pet like Raymond.
Not only was he smart, but he was also unique.
Steven sat beside Raymond. Raymond's cold body made him feel very comfortable.
Raymond's body was also very soft. It wasn't as hard as leaning against a rock.
Famutis also brought Evan here every day.
Steven also liked to rest against Evan's body.
But different from Raymond's body, Evan's body temperature was quite high. It wasn't suitable for him to lean on for too long.
Especially in LA in October, the weather was rather dry and warm.
In winter, there was basically heating indoors.
Steven had a lot of trust in Yi Wen after interacting with her for so long.
Of course, Evan was just a regular jaguar. He was still very different from the pets at home.
