Making a Move

"The reason I decided to go south this time is because I was fortunate enough to meet a Formal Magician was passing through Hopes City."

"The other person came from the coast of the Endless South Sea and told me about the prosperity there."

"Because I helped this master a lot, although he did not accept me as his apprentice, he gave me a coin, which is the common currency used by Mage to make transactions."

"The road to the south is long and unknown, and I must be fully prepared before I set off."

"So I plan to trade this coin, hoping to obtain items that will be helpful to me," the Gray Hat magic apprentice said, his gaze mostly fixed on Saine.

At this moment, Saine was also attracted by the coin that the Gray Hat apprentice had taken out.

This is a coin that is larger than ordinary gold and Silver Coin, with a diameter of five centimeters.

It is entirely gold in color, and the surface of the coin has special and mysterious patterns engraved on it.

And for some reason, when he saw this coin, Saine always felt that there was a special and mysterious aura about it.

This is a special perception that Saine developed after experiencing more than two years of being trapped in the Yellow Sand World.

This coin seems to have the feel of the Wizard World.

What surprised Saine even more was that he had also seen a pile of coins, numbering in the hundreds, in the Space Bracelet left to him by his mentor, Moxidu.

Saine had assumed this was the common currency of the Black Domain in the Western Islands, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"Magic Coin?" a knowledgeable Intermediate Apprentice couldn't help but ask.

Because they live on the Surface World, these Intermediate Apprentice know more about common information than Saine.

However, these Intermediate Apprentice had only ever heard of Magic Coin; this was the first time they had ever seen one.

The Gray Hat apprentice nodded and said, "According to that Formal Magician, one Magic Coin is enough to compensate for the help I provided to him, and there might even be some left over."

"But this Magic Coin is ultimately just currency, unlike Energy Crystal which have practical value, so I decided to make a move at this trade fair."

As expected, the gray-robed apprentice's words prompted other apprentices at the trade fair to frequently bid.

However, the items that the Intermediate Apprentice brought out were not very appealing to the gray-robed apprentices.

His attention was always on Saine.

And Saine finally made his move.

.

"How about a Low-Level Recovery Potion?" Saine asked, pulling a slender, crimson potion from his pocket.

Saine eventually purchased the Magic Coin from the Gray Hat apprentice in exchange for two Low-Level Recovery Potion and three Nutrient Potion.

Since the specific prices among Formal Magician are unknown, the value of this Magic Coin is difficult to assess at this time. →

However, Saine thinks it should be a good deal.

Because Low-Level Recovery Potion are almost useless to him now; they are the lowest level potions that can only be used for ordinary superficial injuries.

After obtaining his mentor's Magic Staff, which was engraved with the power of Flesh Regeneration, Saine no longer cared about low-level potions.

Not to mention, the Holy Light Badge given to Saine by Midiqi, Second-Level Magician of the Dawn Holy Tower, contains Light Revival Magic that surpasses even the Flesh Regeneration spell in rank.

As for Nutrient Potion... these are ordinary items that might not even meet the basic requirements for potions, but they are quite similar to the Blood Activation Potion that Frank himself developed.

Therefore, it didn't bother Saine much to sell those few potions.

On the contrary, the gray-robed Advanced Apprentice thought he had made a profit. With these potions on him, his plan to go south was much more secure.

Apart from a Magic Coin, Saine began to make frequent moves in the latter half of this mini-trade fair.

Frank's Sound Transmission Spell were traded by Saine for a low-level Energy Crystal.

In addition, some strange and unusual magical materials that he had never seen before were frequently purchased, including the Screaming Branch that had previously failed to sell at auction.

Saine's generosity greatly amazed Frank and his apprentices.

Of course, Saine didn't act too outrageously.

After discovering that the area was relatively barren, Saine didn't even take out Intermediate Energy Crystal, and used only low-level Energy Crystal.

There were only about a dozen of them, which is quite fitting for Advanced Apprentice like him.

"I should have brought more things with me. How about this, I'll sleep with you for a while, and you only need to pay me one low-level Energy Crystal, how about that?" The same masked intermediate female apprentice leaned right up to Saine and said.

The masked female apprentice must be quite old, but because the mask covered most of her face, Saine couldn't see what she actually looked like.

However, the other person had sprayed on some perfume favored by nobles, and when they approached Saine, the rich fragrance wafted over, surprisingly...

This elicited some reaction from Saine.

Come to think of it, Saine hasn't been with a woman for several years.

Especially during the time he spent alone in the Yellow Sand World, he lived the life of an ascetic for more than two years.

At his current age of twenty-something, he is in the prime of his life, full of vigor and vitality.

Unexpectedly, he was provoked by the intermediate female apprentice in front of him and lost his composure.

Before Saine could reply, another Intermediate Apprentice said sourly, "Mary, is it that I can't satisfy you?"

"It's just a low-grade Energy Crystal. I have some here too, how about..."

Before the Intermediate Apprentice could finish speaking, the female apprentice in front of Saine retorted sharply, "Joe Ke, shut up! I'm just willing to be your girlfriend for a while, not your wife. What right do you have to tell me what to do?"

The masked female apprentice's loud reprimand drew the attention of the other apprentices around her.

This was a tigress; the male apprentice's face had turned Crimson Purple.

"Oh? Your name is Joe Ke?" Saine asked, looking at the Intermediate Apprentice whose face looked terrible.

"Yeah, what's wrong?" The Intermediate Apprentice had just been humiliated by the masked female apprentice and was in a bad mood, so he had no desire to flatter the Advanced Apprentice, Saine.

"It's nothing, just a friend I used to know, also named Joe Ke," Saine replied casually.

The room was warm and had a strong perfume scent.

These perfume scents, combined with sweat, body odor, and some indescribable special liquids, create a peculiar smell throughout the room.

It has a fishy smell, a smell that allows those in the environment to release their primal urges more freely.

A violent impact, accompanied by high-pitched screams, filled the room and its surroundings.

Fortunately, this room was located in the backyard of the city lord's mansion in City of Peterte.

With the surrounding waiters already cleared out, no one unrelated to the situation would notice what was happening.

The fierce battle lasted for two hours, during which Saine, who had been abstinent for many years, released himself a total of six times.

Even when Saine released his last release, his own legs were feeling weak.

The woman in front of him, who had long since turned into a puddle of mud, had lost consciousness, her head resting on the bedsheets, muttering something incoherently.
