Magic Shop System

 As everyone left, Kadyn asked Slyff to remain behind. "What is it, boss?" he asked

 Kadyn flicked his hand and a vial appeared in his hand. It was filled with some kind of blue liquid. "Do you know where Bren lives?" he asked as he eyed Slyff.

 "Yes, I know."

 Kadyn nodded and passed the vial to him. "Take this, and place it inside his room. Don't breathe after opening the stopper."

 Slyff eyed the vial and then Kadyn, a deep look appeared inside his eyes. He shivered when he realised what was going on, but he smirked and walked out of the shop. 'Who told Bren to be so greedy? Now, you have entered the tiger's den, so be ready to be eaten.'

As the dawn arrived, the news spread like a wildfire in the entire Clover Square and then in the whole Capital Ceston. Heaven's Door was going to sell Uncommon Rank potions from today. Many influential figures sent their servants to stand in the line, outside the shop. Even then, many people couldn't get the potions as they had already been sold. 

After all, Kadyn was the only Uncommon Rank potioneer in the shop so he could brew only a limited number of potions. Though Elora and Zelie had become Rune Builder—therefore, they could brew Common Rank potions—there was still some time for them to reach Fusion.

Although the customers were happy, as they could buy potions at a much lower price than before, there were quite a few people who slammed their heads on the wall in fury.

"Bastard!" Lack Sweeder cursed as he smashed the glass on the floor. Others were standing behind him, but no one dared to make a sound. "Why can't we kill him, directly?!" he asked as he gritted his teeth.

"Ever since Kadyn opened his business, he has been providing potions and artefacts and intelligence to the royal family—and at a much lower rate than his regular price—so low that it is eye-popping and hard to believe. He is a very important person to the royal family now."

"I know it, damn it!" snapped Lack at the elder who replied. The elder felt a bit disdain for Lack but dared not voice it. Lack's standing was not something that he could compare. His father was the clan leader.

Lack took a deep breath and calmed down before turning towards others. "Where is Gaur?" he said. "Ask him to bring Bren here. I wanted to wait for the right time. But now—"

"Brother!" A man dashed into the hall, covered in sweat, while his face looked anxious.

"What happened?" asked Lack.

"Dead, he is dead!" Gaur Sweeder spoke in a much-hurried voice as he sucked air in deep breaths.

"Who are you talking about?" A bad premonition appeared inside his heart.

"Bren!" Gaur said. "He is dead!"

—

"He is dead," Slyff told Kadyn. "I have just received the news."

"Good," Kadyn said. Then shook his head. "If I could concoct rank 3 poisons, I would have made Lack realise the real pain—"

"Boss."

Kadyn lifted his head, spotting Dion, walking together with Commander Jareth. Kadyn stood up and walked towards the visitor and shook hands. 

After Kadyn sold his goods at a cheaper price than any other chamber of commerce to the royal family, Commander Jareth started to treat him pretty well. After all, his men were also benefiting from those things. The more artefacts and potions they had, the more secure they would become. 

After exchanging a few words, Kadyn perceived that Jareth looked worried, so he led him into a private room.

"Did anything happen, commander Jareth?" he asked.

"Yes," Jareth said. "I need your help in something."

"Please, do tell."

"It's about artefacts and potions," said Jareth. "We need a lot of them."

"You need… you mean—royal family."

"Yes."

"How many artefacts do you need?"

"Er, around fifty thousand common rank speed boots, fifty thousand common rank defence armour—"

"Hold a minute!" Kadyn's eyes went wide when he heard the shocking number. "I don't think I could provide that number—"

"I know," Jaret smiled. "We just need your help in something."

"Can you, please, explain?" Though Kadyn didn't know what was going on, he could tell that the matter was pretty important.

"You will know after meeting his majesty."

"His… majesty?" Kadyn looked at him, stunned. Though he had done a lot of business with them in the previous month he had never met the emperor. That's why he was shocked when he heard the invitation.

"Yes," Jareth nodded. "I will come tomorrow again; we will leave together."

"What's going on?" he said in confusion. "Are we going into war or something?"

Jareth smiled bitterly. "We have received intelligence from our spy that Bone Spear Tower is about to attack."

Kadyn gave a deep look to the man in front of him. He had never thought that the royal family had a spy hiding in the Bone Spear Tower. He thought that his Intelligence Hall was doing pretty good; however, he knew nearly nothing about Bone Spear Tower—except that it was hidden somewhere in the Gubia Empire—with this one could tell that the emperor was a formidable man. 

Furthermore, with this information, Jareth also indirectly told him that they trusted him. Though the major events like war can't be hidden for too long. The preparation had just started, and if the public knew about this information, the panic would spread.

"Oh," Kadyn nodded after realising the graveness of the matter. Furthermore, the royal family had their own potioneers and artisans, and if they were buying so many arms from others that means the situation was far worse than he thought. 

He could already imagine corpses and blood. He could already imagine how those vicious people would suck the blood and soul essence out of the people.. Though he knew that the war was going to be cruel, he had seen worse—after all, Bone Spear Tower was far from reaching the level of Death Valley.
