"Welcome to Salo, this adorable young lady. The puppy in your hands is very special." A sharp voice that sounded like a chisel rubbing against a stone floated from the counter.
A stern-looking old lady with a bun on her head was sitting behind the counter. She was holding a fat, lazy cat in her arms.
The cat's body was huge, while the old lady's body was thin and small. When the two were put together, it was as if the old lady was a cat with a human head. She was lying there lazily, looking at everything around her with her gray eyes.
The old lady was looking at Xiao Hei in Yun Sheng's arms with great interest. Xiao Hei seemed to dislike the old lady and barked unhappily.
Upon hearing the barking, the cat in the old lady's arms also narrowed its eyes and barked at Xiao Hei a few times. For a moment, the smell of gunpowder filled the shop.
"Madam, I would like to buy a magic scepter for my daughter." Yun Canghai asked with a smile.
Only then did that old granny raise her eyelids, giving Yun Canghai another glance.
But it was only a glance.
"What attribute do you want the magic scepter? How old is the beast? Do you need the corresponding magical beast soul stone immediately? "The old lady's voice was still very harsh.
Yun Sheng did not speak. She believed that her father, Yun Canghai, would choose a suitable magic scepter for her. But she was more worried about whether her father had enough silver coins to buy a magic scepter.
"A magic scepter made from fifty year old beast bones. Magic attribute. None. It also doesn't need to be embedded with a magical beast soul stone." Yun Canghai almost blurted out. Presumably, when he walked into this shop, he had already thought of what kind of magic scepter he wanted.
It was understandable that no magical beast soul stone would be inlaid.
After all, for most poor mages, they could not afford expensive soul stones. Most of them would choose to enter the magical beast gathering area and hunt for magical beasts that matched the attributes of the magic scepter. After obtaining the magical beast soul stone, they would then inlay the scepter.
But a magic scepter with the attribute of "None" was weird.
A Magic Scepter without any attributes and without a Soul Stone inlaid meant that when a mage used a Magic Scepter, no matter what kind of magic they used, they would not receive any magic enhancement. Then, what was the difference between using a Magic Scepter and not using a Magic Scepter?
Even the old lady who raised the cat had never met such a request from a customer.
"Are you sure you want to buy a Magic Scepter without any magical attributes? Could it be that this little girl is a multi-elemental magician? "The granny looked at Yun Sheng with her greenish-gray eyes.
"As expected of the famous scepter maker, Madam Shoro. Only in your shop can I buy a suitable magic scepter for Sheng 'er," Yun Canghai said loudly.
As far as Yun Sheng knew, a Magic Scepter could only be embedded with a Magic Soul Stone of one type.
But among the high-level magicians, there was a saying that was completely different from the common knowledge.
A Magic Scepter could be inlaid with Magic Soul Stones of different attributes, but the prerequisite was that the bones of the magical beast that made the Magic Scepter did not have any attributes. This way, when the Magic Scepter was made, there would not be any magical repulsion due to the different attributes of the Magic Soul Stones.
This granny was actually a scepter maker?
When Yun Sheng heard this, her face was also full of shock.
Madam Shoro did not expect to meet someone who could recognize her in such an inconspicuous city.
She suddenly remembered something, and a glint flashed across her old eyes. "I remember now. You are the young man who accompanied that girl to my shop 13 years ago to choose a Magic Scepter."
13 years ago … At that time, Yun Sheng was not even born yet. The girl who came to Shoro Magic Shop with Yun Canghai should be Yun Sheng's mother, Hu Jiusheng.
Madam Shoro was over 60 years old. She started making Magic Scepters when she was 10 years old, and it had been 50 years since then.
The reason why she did not become one of the most famous weapon makers on the continent was because her magic cultivation was very average. She was also born a commoner, and did not attend any of the famous magic academies on the continent.
She was also only a wood elemental great magician.
Wood elemental magic was also one of the secondary attributes of magic. It was different from the famous secondary light magic and the taboo dark magic on the continent. Wood elemental magicians did not have strong offensive abilities, and their defensive abilities were also very average. Hence, they were not mainstream in the world of magicians.
But, fortune was caused by misfortune.
Due to Madam Shoro's early experience, she devoted her life to making Magic Scepters for commoner magicians. Hence, she did not become a Hall Scepter Master.
But, because of this, the Magic Scepters she made were very popular among commoner magicians because of their good workmanship and reasonable price.
Especially those young magicians who had just become magicians. They were willing to travel thousands of miles to buy a Magic Scepter made by Madam Shoro as their first Magic Scepter.
"So, it's the daughter of an old friend. If my memory is not wrong, your wife is also a summoner. "Madam Shoro noticed that Yun Canghai's expression changed when he mentioned the incident from 13 years ago.
Madam Shoro did not continue speaking, and lowered her head to size up Yun Sheng.
With this look, she realized that although the little girl in front of her was dressed in simple clothes, her face was exquisite, and her pair of bright eyes were especially eye-catching.
The little girl was completely focused on the Magic Scepters, and did not seem to hear the conversation between the two.
Yun Canghai had his reasons for choosing 50-year-old magical beast bones.
Even if it had been made into a Magic Scepter, the bones of magical beasts would still have a vicious aura.
Especially those Magic Scepters that had been cruelly killed and stripped of their bones. If used improperly, it could even harm its owner.
Usually, a magician's first Magic Scepter was just a transitional Magic Scepter. After becoming a more advanced magician, they could choose to replace the Magic Scepter.
With Yun Sheng's current age, it was impossible for her to control a Magic Scepter that was over 50 years old. But, considering that she would have to use this Magic Scepter for the next few years, Yun Canghai specified that he wanted a Magic Scepter that was at most 50 years old.
"Bones of magical beasts without attributes. That will be difficult." Madam Shoro's face was also troubled. She glanced at Xiao Hei in Yun Sheng's arms. "There is a ready-made one. The magical beast in the little girl's hands seems to have no attributes."
Xiao Hei's black fur stood up when she heard that.
In Madam Shoro's arms, the fat cat shook its whiskers provocatively.
"Xiao Hei is my Beast. I would rather not have the Magic Scepter than touch Xiao Hei." Yun Sheng hugged Xiao Hei tightly. She looked as if she was really afraid that Madam Shoro would reach out her withered hands and grab Xiao Hei at any moment.
Yun Canghai found it funny when he saw that.
Most of the time, Yun Sheng was calm to the point that she didn't seem like a normal child. This point even made Yun Canghai, who was her father, vexed for quite a while.
His daughter only seemed like a six-year-old girl at times like this.
