"What materials do you need? As long as we have them, I can give them to you as a gift."
Viking had been looking for a chance to repay Angor's kindness. However, as the gap between their strength grew bigger, it became harder for him to do so. Now that Angor was here to buy materials, Viking decided to use this chance to repay Angor's kindness.
"Gift?" Angor looked at Viking in confusion. "What do you have to do with this shop?"
"Flandy used to be in charge of Breeze. But because of the Rising Star Competition, he knew I was coming to Floating Mech City, so he asked me to take over the shop while he returned to Breezy Valley."
Viking's words made him realize that Viking was also from Breezy Valley.
Viking looked to the other side. "Snow, you were the one who received Mister Padt, weren't you? You should know what materials Mister Padt needs. Go get them. "
Snow was the man standing beside the female puppet. His body was still trembling. When Viking called his name, he finally nodded and answered, "Yes."
Viking: "Since you know, hurry up and get it."
Viking then turned to Angor. "This is Snow, Flandy's follower. He's been working at Breeze for more than ten years. If he offended you in any way, please forgive him. "
Viking sounded like he was scolding Snow, but he was actually trying to protect Snow. Clearly, he noticed the tension between Angor and Snow when he entered the shop.
Snow followed Viking's words and was about to go to the storeroom to get the materials. However, he suddenly thought of something and hesitated.
Viking frowned. "What are you waiting for?"
Snow hesitated for a moment and lowered his head. "But … But the materials Mister Padt wants are banned by the shop owner …"
"Banned materials?" Viking looked at Snow and then at Angor, not knowing what to say.
"This is the first time I've heard that the Demonic Flower Demonic Bloodstone is listed as a prohibited material." Angor spoke in a soft voice, "I once bought a Bechymos Stone at the Sky Auction. Such precious stones are usually sold for a high price. Why is a Demon Flower Stone banned?"
Angor looked at Snow. "I'm curious. What's the basis of this ban? Is this the rule of Floating Mech City? Or is it just Breeze Shop's rule? "
Snow did not dare to look into Angor's eyes. He lowered his head and did not say anything.
Viking finally realized that Angor was looking for a Demon Flower Stone. "Let's go to the warehouse. I'm sure Mister Padt has nothing to do with them."
"Mister Padt, the ban has nothing to do with Snow. It's Mr. Flandy's decision."
"Why?" He needed quite a lot of Demon Flower Spirit Bloodstones this time. Every time he used Singe of Fate, he would use up one of them. In other words, the number of Demon Flower Spirit Bloodstones he would use would depend on how many Demon Flower Spirit Bloodstones he wanted to use. Angor wanted to buy a large number of Demon Flower Spirit Bloodstones, so he was curious about why the item was banned.
Viking hesitated. He did not know if he should tell Angor about it. He thought for a while and finally decided to tell Angor.
Viking walked to the door and carefully looked outside. After making sure no one was around, he closed the door and walked back to Angor. "Mister, let's talk inside."
Angor saw Viking's serious look and realized that there was something wrong with the Demon Flower Spirit Bloodstone.
Angor nodded and followed Viking into the inner room.
Viking also invited Onassis, "Come with us. It's not a secret. It's just a little troublesome."
"You know I hate trouble," Onassis quickly said.
"It's fine as long as you don't get involved."
In the end, Onassis was persuaded. Following Viking's lead, they entered the shop.
Along the way, Angor learned that Onassis and Viking were good friends, and that Onassis came to Breeze because of Viking's invitation.
But Angor was still confused. How did these two become friends?
As far as Angor knew, Viking was a hot-blooded and impulsive person, which was evident from the fact that he was willing to take a hit for Shayaron even though he knew the consequences. On the other hand, Onassis's every three sentences were all about philosophy. His style of speaking was enough to make people die. No matter how one looked at it, the two of them did not seem to be compatible.
Before Angor could ask, Viking already told him the truth.
When Viking was a mortal, he loved a legendary novel called Redbeard, which was about the legendary pirate Redbeard. During the preliminaries of the Rising Star Contest, Onassis was provoked by someone and used a passage from Redbeard. Viking was there, so he remembered it. Later on, when Viking took the initiative to talk to Onassis, he used Red Beard as a starting point.
Back then, Onassis thought that Viking was just a philosopher. Later, he learned that Viking had only read Redbeard before.
Because of the connection of Red Beard, the two of them barely crossed paths and became friends.
This time, Viking and Onassis had come to the Breeze Magic Material Shop together because they had both gone to the Endless Corridor after the Rising Star Competition. However, Viking had only reached the 30th floor of the Endless Corridor before encountering a problem. On the other hand, Onassis had already reached the 70th floor without encountering any bottlenecks. Hence, Viking invited Onassis, hoping to gain some experience from him.
"Onassis always says things I don't understand, but I always have a good eye for friends. He's a good friend," Viking said confidently.
Good eye? Angor did not think so. If so, he would not have joined that team in the purification garden.
Thinking about Viking's team, Angor could not help but shake his head. What a strange team. Viking helped Shayaron, but Shayaron did not care about Viking's life. Freud helped Yethew and even saved his life, but Yethew betrayed him and killed him.
However, it was also because of the internal strife in the team that Angor managed to get Freud as his right-hand man. It was a great fortune for Angor.
He did not think that Viking had a good eye for people, but he did think that Onassis was a good person.
At least, Onassis would not betray Viking like Shayaron did.
It was not that Onassis was a good person. He simply believed that a strong man would never be afraid of betrayal. Onassis was not strong enough to betray Viking.
As for Viking himself, it was hard to say.
