It took Dave two seconds to realize why the voice sounded so familiar.
"Angor?!" His expression changed from surprise to joy.
Dave turned around and looked around, but he did not see Angor right away. Just as he was wondering, someone patted him on the shoulder.
He quickly turned around and saw a blond young man wearing a loose wizard robe. The man was leaning against the railing of the stairs and lazily waving at him.
"It's you!" Dave laughed and walked to Angor. He put an arm around Angor's shoulder and asked, "What brings you here, busy man?"
"I'm not as busy as you are. Look, people are asking you to make something for them. Look at them!" Angor pretended to sound strange. "Right? Mister Dave? "
Dave rubbed his nose in embarrassment and pretended to be angry. "Don't be so weird. Speak properly!"
Angor shrugged and gave Dave a playful look.
Dave sighed and rolled his eyes at Angor. He then spoke in a serious tone, "It's all thanks to you. I learned a lot from you last year. Moreover, your Tang Saber is very popular in the shop. Now, I have to forge more than ten of them every week just to satisfy those people. "
"So they're here for a Tang Dao?" Angor was surprised.
"Oh, right. Here, take this." Dave took out a single-use space capsule from his pocket and handed it to Angor. "There are about a thousand magic crystals in there. I'll put one crystal inside for each Tang Dao sold. Here's your share of the profits."
Once again, Angor refused.
This was the second time Angor refused.
Last year, Dave asked Angor if he could make a Tang Dao and sell it in the shop, and Angor agreed. Back then, Dave offered to give Angor a share of the profits. Angor did not expect Dave to still remember this.
"Like I said last time, I didn't invent the Tang Dao. Someone else did. You don't need to pay me any royalties."
Although it was the first time David heard the term 'copyright fee', he quickly understood the meaning behind it. "But to me, the method and key points of making the Tang sword were indeed taught to me by you. There is no doubt about that."
Angor tried to decline, but Dave was stubborn.
"I don't need magic crystals right now. How about this? You can give it to me when you have 10,000 magic crystals in there. "
Brute Cavern's market should be saturated by selling a thousand Tang Sabers. Ten thousand Tang Sabers, it should be impossible.
David, on the other hand, felt that the Tang sword had a bright future. It was simple and practical, and most importantly, it looked good! Compared to holding a soft rapier or a clumsy greatsword, holding it in his hand was many times more dashing.
Ten thousand, wasn't it just a matter of time?
"Alright, I'll save up 10,000 magic crystals and give them to you when the time comes." "You haven't answered my question yet. Why did a busy man like you come to me all of a sudden? Could it be that he wanted to buy some materials? Master Prometheus and I bought some materials from Twilight Well a few days ago. "
Angor waved a hand. "I have enough materials for now. I bought a lot in Floating Mech City. I'm here to have a chat with you. There's nothing else. "
"Chat? Sure, I was just about to close the shop and go to Bartterfly Bar for a barbecue. I really miss the barbecue sauce there. "David said," Wait, I'll go and close the shop. Let's talk while we eat. "
With that, Dave went to close the door with a big smile.
Angor stood aside and looked at Dave, who was getting excited for some reason.
He remembered the first time he met Dave. The man tricked Toby into helping him with his experiments. Back then, Angor could feel the sense of inferiority and loneliness in Dave's heart.
Later, Angor learned that Dave's teacher had passed away, and Dave was trying to survive in Brute Cavern alone. He wanted to rely on alchemy to make a name for himself. However, alchemy required a lot of talent and knowledge. Without a solid foundation, Dave was basically hopeless.
Back then, Dave was in such an awkward situation.
But now, Dave was brimming with confidence from inside out. That sense of inferiority was nowhere to be found.
Angor chuckled. He was really happy about David's change. Nausica, Sailum, Davy … all of them were growing stronger. Everyone had found their own path in this confusing world.
Nausica was determined to become immortal.
Sailum was willing to risk his life to turn the book into a spirit.
And now, Dave also found a way to realize his own worth on the path of alchemy. Keely, Alan, Shan, Shiliew, and Shiliew were all growing stronger. Angor hoped that he could travel further with them in the future and reach greater heights.
Thinking about this, Angor couldn't help but think about the people who came to Brute Cavern with him.
Did Nausica's subordinate, Ebony, stop acting like a pirate?
Did Roffig and Orlando, who claimed to be his best friends but were actually very close to each other, reunite now? Did they no longer need to be separated from each other?
Also, Fosah and Laffitte, whom Angor had mixed feelings about. Were they still following different bosses?
Finally, did Balba, who was the most important person in Angor's life, understand why Flora treated him differently?
Apart from Hookdick, Angor maintained a good relationship with everyone else. Even Fosah and Laffitte, who used to be Hookdick's henchmen, didn't get any worse after what happened to Hookdick.
Angor hoped that these people could go far in the future. The path of wizardry was a lonely one. Only by using dreams as a horse could one live a good life.
While Angor was lost in his thoughts, Dave came to him with a Tang saber in his hand.
"Here, take a look. I made this. What do you think? The future mysterious alchemist, teaching your most loyal follower? "Dave handed the saber to Angor.
"Let's walk and see. I'm already hungry," Dave quickly said when he saw Angor standing there.
Angor returned the saber to Dave. Under Dave's passionate gaze, Angor nodded and praised, "Nice. Compared to the Tang saber I made, it feels more harmonious."
"That's it? You're not going to teach me anything? "Dave looked a little disappointed.
Angor chuckled. "Oh, come on. What can I teach you? I'm still practicing enchantment. You used synthesis to make your weapon. How am I supposed to teach you anything? "
David pursed his lips and helplessly put away his Tang Saber.
Angor was right. Overall, Dave's Tang Saber was better than Angor's Tang Saber. This was because of the Synthesis Alchemy. In essence, it was a deeper application of materials. For a weapon like the Tang Saber, the most important part was the excavation of the materials.
In other words, most alchemy items required a deeper understanding of materials. This was also the reason why Synthesis Alchemy was considered the mainstream in Tooling, while Enchantment Alchemy was considered to be the last.
They did not go to Bartterfly Bar this time. Instead of sitting outside, they booked a small private room.
While enjoying their barbecue, they talked about the recent news in the wizarding world.
Angor was planning to ask Dave about the music box, but he was attracted by Dave's anecdotes.
For example, the current situation of Sleepless City.
According to Dave, Sleepless City had completely retreated from the Monsoon Zone. They were planning to leave the Evernight Kingdom and find another place to live. Furthermore, just as they had guessed, the area covered by the Domain of Darkness was slowly expanding.
The parasites were also increasing in number, and they were getting more and more aggressive.
"Those parasites are too scary. I think the entire Evernight Kingdom would have fallen if we didn't have wizards guarding the area. Even so, some of them managed to escape and spread to other parts of the Evernight Kingdom. Not only did they cause chaos in the wizarding world, but they also affected the mortals. " David said worriedly, "I'm afraid that the parasites will fly across the Parmigi Highlands and wander around here."
"Don't worry. Lady Mirror is here. No parasites can enter the mirror world."
Dave shook his head. "It's hard to say. Lady Mirror hasn't shown up for half a year. Now, you only need a pass to enter the mirror world. If someone from Brute Cavern is infected, they might bring the parasites into the mirror world. "
"Lady Mirror hasn't shown up for half a year?"
Angor wasn't worried about the parasites. Even if the mirror world did fall, Sunders would still be there to protect Brute Cavern. On the other hand, Dave's information about Lady Mirror surprised him a little.
"Yeah. But it's normal. I heard that Lady Mirror would go into seclusion for a period every few hundred years. Usually, it would last for several years, or even more than ten years. That's when the mirror world's defense is at its weakest. "Dave sighed.
"I don't think so. The mirror world's defense can't be weak when Lady Mirror is in seclusion. I think it's going to get stronger. Core wizards aren't stupid, "Angor said.
Lady Mirror was in seclusion? Angor was planning to finish the task as soon as possible so that he could deliver it to Lady Mirror as soon as possible.
"That's right. You're right." David suddenly realized.
"You mentioned that there are still many wizards stationed outside the darkness, right?" "That's right.
Dave nodded. "You should know. Mister Sunders is still there. Many Magus organizations have sent people over, and I've also heard some secret news. "
"Secret?" Angor hesitated for a second.
Even though there were only the two of them in the room, his voice was getting lower and lower. "I heard that the darkness is … related to the Nightmare Realm."
