Angor glanced at the man who spoke to him. Did he think he was an idiot?
Angor ignored the man's sincere invitation and kept looking at the young man, waiting for his response.
The young man had a conflicted expression on his face. He stole a glance at the sky. Two figures were about to descend from the thin clouds. Judging from their uniforms, they should be members of the law enforcement team responsible for the safety of Munshi's Magic Material Street.
The reason why the law enforcers did not give him any trouble was because he did not cross the line. Today, he played twice in a row, which meant he had crossed the line. If he kept playing, the law enforcers would definitely come looking for him.
The young man gave Angor a regretful look. "I really want to play for you, Zhiyin, but I have something more important to do today. If you really want to hear me play, Zhiyin, you can come back the day after tomorrow. "
His words sounded nice, but to the others, they meant something else: I really want to get more money from you, but the law enforcers are coming. I have to run. How about we set a time and a place, and I'll trick you again next time?
"How shameless!" The others shook their heads and cursed.
Angor did not have the time to wait for another three days. He would probably leave today or tomorrow. Of course he would not agree.
He wanted to say something else, but Nausica walked to him and whispered, "Don't waste your money. I know this guy. What music do you want to hear? I'll ask him to play later."
The young man looked at Nausica and narrowed his eyes.
This idiot knows Nausica?!
While he was still wondering, he saw Sailum's gloomy expression in the distance.
Why is Sailum here? Look at his eyes … Does he know me too? But she had never been separated from Sailum. She had never seen him before.
The law enforcers arrived from the sky.
Seeing this, the young man rushed into the crowd, grabbed Sailum, and ran deeper into the crowd, regardless of his doubts.
When Angor looked back, the young man was already gone. But he also noticed that the young man beside the young man looked familiar.
…
A moment later, inside a dimly lit restaurant, Angor looked at Sailum, who was sitting across from him, and the alluring woman beside him.
If he did not see her change with his own eyes, he would never believe that the woman who hugged Sailum's arm and begged for mercy was the young man who played the saxophone by the fountain.
"Dark Dian, let go of me." Sailum shook off Dark Dian's hand and blushed. "Change your look, and give Angor my money back. Now."
Dark Dian looked at Sailum with a wronged expression. "I can change my look, but I worked so hard to get the money —"
Before Dark Codex could finish, Sailum added, "I tricked him."
Seeing that Sailum didn't buy it, Dark Vidian looked at Angor expectantly. She was hoping that Angor would refuse to take the crystal back.
Angor glanced at Nausica and saw her expression saying, "See? That's how it is."
Angor now understood why Nausica and Shan always looked weird when talking about Sailum. It was not because of Sailum, but because of this Dark Dian.
Dark Dian was not a difficult person to accept. However, when Angor recalled that Dark Dian was Sailum's favorite book spirit, he felt strange.
Among all spirits, book spirits were the most stable.
This Dark Dian, on the other hand, was not easy to explain.
Seeing that Dark Dian did not move, Sailum decided to ignore Dark Dian and spoke to Angor with an apologetic look. "I'm sorry for the trouble. Angor, if you want to listen to any music, I can ask him to play for you right now."
While speaking, Sailum took out 60 magic crystals from his wallet and placed them in front of Angor.
"I don't need magic crystals." Angor shook his head. "I have my reasons for giving them away."
Reasons?
Everyone was curious about why Angor suddenly spent so much money on Dark Codex's performance.
Angor briefly explained Toby's condition. He did not mention the "Taste Disaster" and only mentioned that Toby was unconscious because of an unknown curse. "As you all know, Toby loves music. He's been unconscious for months. I saw that he reacted to Dark Dian's music, so I asked him to continue."
To Angor, Toby's reaction was much more important than the few magic crystals he had to pay for it.
Before Sailum could say anything, Dark Codex jumped out and gave Sailum a meaningful look: See, this is what I got for my hard work.
Before Sailum could say anything else, Dark Dian's body flashed and transformed from a seductive woman into an elegant middle-aged man.
Dark Dian stood up and bowed to Angor gracefully. "Since it's because of Toby, I'll start playing now. I hope Toby will feel better."
While speaking, Dark Dian took Sailum's magic crystals from the table and put them into his pocket.
Before Sailum could lose his temper, Dark Dian took out his saxophone, stood aside, and began to play without any distractions.
One song after another, each with a different style. Everyone was immersed in the melodious music.
After an unknown amount of time, Dark Dian stopped playing.
Angor shook his head. "Toby didn't move. Maybe I was just imagining things."
Seeing the sadness in Angor's eyes, everyone wanted to comfort him, but they did not know where to start.
"I'll be fine. I'll leave soon because of Toby." Angor looked at Sailum and changed the topic. "Speaking of which, I'm very interested in what you've been through recently. You've changed a lot."
The change Angor was talking about was not only because of Dark Dian, but also because of Sailum himself.
When Sailum left Brute Cavern alone, he was still a beginner apprentice. In just a few years, he broke through a small barrier and reached the level of a level-2 apprentice.
This level of skill was already considered top-notch among those of the same generation.
Sailum was going to talk about the magic crystals, but since Angor already said so, he decided not to. Instead, he replied, "I've been training in the Richland Kingdom all these years …"
Sailum told Angor about his experience.
Just like Nausica, Sailum only talked about his experiences in general, and he only talked about the things that were beneficial to him. As for the really dangerous things, Sailum only talked about them vaguely.
Sailum also revealed some secrets when he talked about the Azure Bloodline that had fused into his body.
It was not easy to fuse with the Azure Bloodline. It required some very strict prerequisites. Sailum did not know about these prerequisites until he fused with the Azure Bloodline.
Sailum did not meet most of the prerequisites. But he was lucky because he met the most important prerequisites for activating the Azure Bloodline.
There was a possession that connected their minds, auras, and blood.
The thick book that Sailum carried with him every day was his item of sustenance.
In the end, Sailum was lucky enough to fuse with the Azure Bloodline. However, because he did not meet some prerequisites, he did not receive the complete Body of Sage.
However, with the help of his incomplete Body of the Sage, Sailum had successfully enlightened his thick-shelled tome into a spirit.
It was now Dark Dian.
After telling his story, Sailum asked about Angor's experience.
Most of Angor's stories were recorded in the magazine, but many details were missing. Angor decided to fill in the gaps and retell his experience in the Abyss Plane.
For example, how he met Fafnir, the Abyss Wind Dragon, and how he got involved with Oderklas and obtained his mark.
Angor described everything briefly, only leaving out some sensitive details.
The others did not ask for more details. Angor had his own reasons for not telling them what he knew.
This was the first time Leon heard Angor's story. Angor didn't mention anything dangerous about it. However, as an apprentice, Angor didn't lose his composure when facing a monster as powerful as a level-3 truth-finder. Instead, he acted as a medium between the two dragons, creating a kind of balance between them. It was hard to imagine how terrifying it must have been.
No one else could do that.
When they finished talking, the sky outside the window was already red. It was the color of the sunset, which looked even more beautiful in the sky.
They were excited to see their old friends again, but life still had to go on.
"My dear master, I know you don't want to end this conversation, but I have to remind you that you still have half an hour before your next match. It's your promotion match on the sixth level of Tower of Infinity. If you give up now, you'll lose half of your points, "Dark Dian warned.
Sailum stayed until there were only ten minutes left before he reluctantly bid farewell to Angor.
…
After saying goodbye to Sailum, Angor and Leon planned to follow Nausica to Fragrant Pavilion to check if there was anything that needed to be improved on the arm.
But before that, Angor needed to do something first.
He needed to buy materials.
Angor already had a lot of materials, but he did not buy them for himself. He needed them for Nausica's mechanical arm, and for the Soul Materials Bobota asked him to buy.
It just so happened that they were currently at Munshi's Magic Material Street. After leaving the restaurant, they walked along Magic Material Street.
