When Angor mentioned that the scythe was also his, Tesla's hand trembled a little. He turned to Prome, only to see Prome smiling at him.
"This scythe is engraved with Rune of Sharpness, a typical enchantment in enchantment alchemy."
Almost everyone in the underground market knew that Prome was an alchemist. By pointing out that the scythe was an enchantment, he was clearly trying to distance himself from the scythe.
Tesla felt a bit numb after hearing Prome's words. He suddenly felt that he shouldn't have come here today … But he couldn't back down now. Since he had decided to go against this young man, he could only grit his teeth and walk down the dark path.
"You're the seller. Sell it if you want. Don't give me this bullshit. "Tesla slammed the scythe on the table and made a loud noise.
Angor remained calm. "You're the one who wants to be reasonable, aren't you? Since I put the weapon in my shop, I'm going to sell it. So I'm giving it to you now, right? "
"If you're going to sell it, why do you need to be reasonable?!"
"You don't get it, do you? I'll say it again. It's your reason, not mine. "Angor didn't care about Tesla's anger at all.
"What do you mean by 'my reason' and 'yours'? You think you're playing word games?"
Angor sneered at Tesla's words. Dave, Fosah, and Laffitte all shook their heads. Even Prome closed his eyes. He couldn't bear to listen to it anymore.
Before Tesla realized what was going on, Queena whispered into his ear, "He's asking you to make a bid! Don't be fooled by him! "
Kunna also felt embarrassed and couldn't help but urge, "Aren't you embarrassed? Come on, let's go. The boss is still waiting for us. "
It was not until this moment that Tesla finally realized that this was indeed his reason — being rich was reason. The other party wanted him to be reasonable, so wasn't that the same as asking him to bid?
Recalling how he had yelled at the other party to "stop yelling if you want to sell it", Tesla felt that he had been utterly humiliated. His face began to burn.
"Look at that red butt. So you still know how to be embarrassed. If you don't even care about reason, why care about this little bit of shame? " It was Laffitte who spoke. He had been called a "lowly person" by Tesla for so long that the resentment in his heart had accumulated to the point of overflowing. Now that he saw Laffitte's embarrassment, how could he hold back from mocking him?
Tesla flew into a rage out of humiliation. With a threatening look in his eyes, he said, "Lowly person, shut your mouth, or else …"
"Or what?" It was Prome, not Laffitte. His eyes were cold. "Recently, there are more and more daring people. Someone actually dares to be impudent in my shop. Are you really tired of living?"
Not to mention Prome's identity, his strength as a Level-3 apprentice alone was enough to suppress Tesla.
"Master, I didn't mean that. He mocked me first, so I …"
Prome's eyes were fierce. "You can fight and scheme against each other as much as you like. But if you dare to make a move in my shop, I'll let you know how wonderful life is! "
After being taught a lesson by Prome, Tesla's calm demeanor was replaced by panic.
Angor spoke at the right time, "Where's your reason? If you can't convince me, then put your weapon back and get the hell out of here! "
Tesla was about to throw a tantrum, but Prome's snort silenced his anger.
Seeing this, Queena put a hand on her forehead and did not want to watch this.
Tesla forced himself to calm down and spoke in a calm tone, "I've already put the money on the table."
There were two cloth bags on the table, one big and one small. The small one was given by Tesla when he wanted to buy the Tang Dao for 20 magic crystals, while the big one was given to him for 100 crystals when he wanted to buy the scythe.
Angor picked up the big bag and weighed it in his hand. "Not enough. That won't convince me. "
"100 magic crystals is already the market price. If you don't know, you can ask someone else. For example, the shop assistant beside you. He's sold many alchemy weapons, so he should know the price of this scythe. "
Dave was quite pleased with Angor's teasing of Tesla earlier. Now that the topic was back to him, he did not know what to say. Tesla was right. 100 magic crystals was indeed the market price. Besides, this was not a long scythe. It was a shorter scythe with a smaller utility. 100 magic crystals was still a bit high.
David did not say anything for a long time. Tesla felt that he had regained some of his dignity and was feeling smug again. However, he did not dare to show it on his face because Prome was there to keep the situation under control.
"Like I said, the scythe is mine. Your reason must satisfy me." Angor considered. "As for the market price, it's not like wizards' iron rules can be changed at will. There are too many factors that can affect the price."
Fosah, the son of a former minister of economy, also spoke up, "Supply and demand in the objective market is the biggest factor that affects the price. Besides, people can manipulate the market price. "
Angor gave Fosah a thumbs-up. "So, don't talk about your market price. In my heart, your price is still not enough for me. "
Tesla always believed in money, so he was just as astute as Fosah when it came to money. He chuckled. "Supply and demand works only if someone is willing to buy it. Only then can you raise the price. This scythe of yours is extremely niche. I don't think anyone would be willing to pay for it. "
"Are you not a human?" Angor retorted.
Tesla did not know how to respond. "You're being unreasonable. You should feel honored that I'm willing to buy a niche weapon like this!"
Angor said, "Special circumstances call for special treatment, right? If someone is in urgent need, I can raise the price. Isn't that an unspoken rule in the market? "
"You're wrong. I'm not in urgent need."
"Is that so? Good luck then. "Angor did not care whether he could sell the scythe or not.
"You!" Tesla was going to argue with Angor, but Angor did not listen to him at all. He was so angry that he lost his words.
When Tesla was too angry to say anything, Queena, who had been watching from the side, finally spoke up. She leaned toward Angor and winked at him. "Mister, I apologize on Tesla's behalf. He's too mean. I can't stand it sometimes. How about this? I'll buy the scythe. What do you say? "
"Sure. You name your price."
Queena pointed at her chest and pouted. "I'm only offering 100 magic crystals. Do you think it's enough for you?"
A young man of fourteen or fifteen years old, hot-blooded and lustful. Queena thought she could seduce Angor with her act. Unfortunately, she did not know that Angor could even kill Red Butterfly without hesitation. Queena was trying to seduce the wrong person.
"No," Angor said without hesitation.
Kun Na's seductive manner stiffened, and the expression on her face instantly vanished. "Then what's your ideal price?"
Angor did not waste time this time. "300 magic crystals."
Almost everyone looked at Angor in surprise when they heard the price. Did he really have the guts to ask for such a price? It was three times higher than the original price. Even a tiered alchemy item made by a master alchemist would only cost about this much.
But I like it. Angor is asking for too much … But I like it.
"300 magic crystals? You don't want to sell it at all, do you? "Tesla sneered.
Tesla's words echoed everyone else's thoughts. Clearly, Angor was taunting them by offering such a price. A tiered scythe was not worth that much.
"Of course I'm going to sell it. I'm not going to sell it as a decoration. As long as you can afford it, I'll sell it to you. "
"But this scythe is not worth 300 magic crystals. Even 100 magic crystals is not enough!"
Angor chuckled. "Not worth it? Isn't your boss, Battle Blade Naru, waiting for you at Sky Tower? "
Tesla and Queena's pupils shrank when they heard Angor mention "Sky Tower".
Queena chuckled awkwardly. "What are you talking about? I don't get it."
"Is that so? It's fine if you don't. " Angor put the scythe back into its case. "I believe you can sell it at this price in a few days. What do you think, Tesla? "
"What do you know?" Tesla was confused.
"Didn't you just buy the information? Why are you asking me? "
"Information? What information? "Fosah and Laffitte exchanged a puzzled look.
Angor smiled. "Something that will make me sell this scythe for 300 crystals."
Tesla and Queena looked at Angor with fear in their eyes. "Who the hell are you? How do you know this information? "
Angor did not answer. "Are you sure you don't want it? You want to buy it at a low price before the news gets out, right? What, 300 magic crystals is too much? "
Everyone was puzzled. What kind of information was Angor talking about? They could not believe what they were hearing.
"Or maybe a rich man who thinks he's right doesn't even have 300 magic crystals?"
Angor's mocking tone made Tesla's face turn red. He was mocking Fosah like this, and he did not expect to be mocked back in such a short time.
What upset Tesla the most was that he did not have 300 magic crystals. Moreover, 300 magic crystals was an unbearable price even for an ordinary Level-3 Apprentice Magus.
"You're right. They don't have 300 magic crystals," Dave said. Although David didn't know what the news was, he was happy to be able to deal a blow to the other party.
