Philip did not have any ordinary weapons on hand, while the pills were made by the kids at home. On the other hand, Aslan was fanatical about various weapons, so he would find a way to store them no matter how many pills the kids made. Aslan rummaged around the weapons and kept one of them. “I usually use this one to pick my teeth.” Aslan chuckled and put all the other weapons in front of Tory. Tory was dumbfounded at the pile of weapons and pills. He thought it would be good enough if he could get a few pills, but Philip gave him so many so casually. It was simply a blessing! Although Tory was excited, he was embarrassed too. “Um, although I’m very interested in these things, I may be a little short on funds. I have 10,000 medium-quality energy stones with me. How many items can I purchase with that amount?” Tory was not very wealthy because most of his money was used to subsidize various military affairs in the city. Even through his efforts, however, it was dif
Since the other party was so uncooperative, Philip would not give them any leeway either. It was Bijou Parlor's loss for not working with Philip. With Aslan’s suggestion, Philip was more enthusiastic about his idea. “Make arrangements for someone to set up the store.” Philip asked Aslan to return to the other world to make arrangements while he returned to the mayor’s residence. He had to discuss this with Tory. Most of the real estate belonged to the Larson family, and only a small portion belonged to the mayor. Philip did not want to go around searching for a suitable spot. Since he had people on hand, why not make good use of them? Tory was still basking in excitement with the weapons and pills on hand when he noticed someone appearing quietly. He immediately went on full alert. As a mayor, he always had to be on guard for assassins. With these treasures on hand now, it was impossible for him to drop his guard. He was relieved when he saw Philip. As one o
Since Philip had his considerations regarding this matter, Tory could rest easy. “Okay, let’s do this. I’ll find a store for you right away and renovate it overnight!” Tory said with a smile. Tory felt very good with Philip’s reassurance. Philip nodded and took out a design drawing, which he had told Aslan to obtain for him. Due to the large time difference between the two worlds, only a short time had passed here even though Aslan had been away for a while. Tory was surprised to see the drawing. He stroked the paper gently, trying to hide his shock. This paper was miles apart from the ones he usually came into contact with. They only used parchment here, so the paper given by Philip was like a work of art. A thin layer of paper could contain so many drawings. It felt different to the touch. It was much more high-end than parchment. He glanced discreetly at Philip, trying to contain his shocked trembling. Philip did not notice Tory’s reaction. He had not seen the
Shadow was surprised to receive the pill and weapon. Tory trusted Philip wholeheartedly, so he took the enhancement pill right in front of Shadow. As Tory's personal bodyguard, Shadow was very loyal and immediately followed suit. They looked thoughtful as they marveled at the miraculous effect of the pills. Since it was their first time taking this pill and coupled with the good effects, their levels increased by a stage. As top experts, it was very difficult for them to improve their level, but one pill did that. How amazing was that? Shadow knelt to Tory in trepidation. “Thank you for your bestowment, Mayor!” He was a smart man and knew how valuable this pill was. As someone close to Tory, he was even more aware that Tory was almost broke. Tory must have spent a huge fortune to the point of bankruptcy to get these things. Tory helped Shadow up without comment. The two quickly discussed the next steps, and Shadow was tasked to distribute the items. It was t
Aslan felt a sense of crisis, but he had stopped growing at his age. He could only hope that the boy would not surpass him. As a monster beast, he was full of fighting spirit. Philip ignored their weird thoughts and took everyone to the Guzo Continent. They instantly felt the abundant energy upon entering this land, but Noelle and the others thought it was not as comfortable as the villa. The energy at the villa was more intense. More importantly, the energy had been purified and was of the highest quality. With every breath, they could absorb the energy without processing it further. Unlike the energy here, they had to convert the energy before absorbing it. Hence, they preferred the energy at the villa. Philip went home for a while, so it was already early the next morning when they returned. Philip led them out one after another. He had bought some local clothes for the kids to avoid any misunderstanding. After all, the kids had a separate mission. He did not wan
“Not bad. They almost replicated the design perfectly. I had doubts about the expertise of these people before this!” Aslan praised, amazed at Tory’s reliability. More importantly, they saw a huge backyard with several rooms, obviously accommodation quarters for them. At this moment, Philip bumped into Tory who was here to supervise the work. The workers told him that the renovation had been completed, so he rushed over. Seeing that it would be dawn in two or three hours, Tory felt extremely nervous. This was a major action of great importance. He could not allow any mishap to occur. Tory and Philip smiled at each other with a hint of appreciation. Philip liked efficient people. “I designed the backyard area for you in particular. I heard that you’ve been staying at that inn on the outskirts of the city. That place is very messy, and the location is quite inconvenient. "If you go there in the strange attire everyone has been talking about, you’ll be identified easily,
Tory marveled at this scene. Noelle and Aslan were probably stronger than Shadow, but Tory did not notice any energy fluctuation from them at all. Either the technique they practiced was very powerful or they had a unique method to conceal their strength. Either possibility would be highly sought after on this continent, not to mention the other distant continent. He had no intention of exposing them but merely took note of it. All the more Tory felt that Philip was a very powerful person. With this secret technique, even a weak person could conceal their strength from powerful people. When something was unknown, the other party would become doubtful. People would guess whether this person was weak or strong. In a nutshell, it depended on whether this person could fool others. Aslan and Noelle were so powerful, but they still took orders from Philip, which proved that Philip was definitely extraordinary. Tory said to Philip, “If you start your business tomorrow, I
Everyone was tempted to stop and look at the window in front. “Why is it called Treasure House? Is it a copy of Bijou Parlor?” “I don’t think so. Maybe they just sell the same things.” “Hehe, how could anyone else sell those things? You should know how difficult it is to find those pills and weapons in this world!” No one believed in the authenticity of Treasure House, so they placed bets and decided to enter the store to take a look. As soon as they entered Treasure House, they saw various pills and weapons. However, unlike Bijou Parlor where herbal fragrance filled the store, the smell here was almost non-existent. “I don’t think this place can make it. There are no beautiful attendants at the door, and there's no pill aroma!” A man with a potbelly waved his fan unhappily, already looking down on this place. As a man who appreciated beauty, he valued beautiful attendants. A feast for the eyes was enough to satisfy him. “I've had enough of the shrew at home, so I w
