Dragon Queen usually drank and left everything to the chancellor, idling her days away.
Unlike Princess Renner, however, she deeply loved her country.
Roy produced the contract once more, listing the corresponding clauses. Draudillon took a brief look and directly signed it.
At that moment, she finally caught sight of the God of Contracts.
"The contract is established, payment and goods are settled!"
Veronica, who had been waiting aside all along, handed over the goods prepared by World City.
Tenth-Tier scrolls, an Earth Gem, and an 80th-level powered armor.
Draudillon's eyes naturally lit up.
Veronica even thoughtfully presented the instruction manual for the scrolls, explaining how to use these items to her.
Every single one of them was a strategic-grade power to the northwestern corner of the continent.
Take the tenth-tier magic scrolls, for instance; even the guardians of the Great Tomb of Nazarick could not ignore their existence.
Things like Time Stop, meteorite descent, Reality Slash, and so on.
To the Draconic Kingdom, every single scroll could serve as a trump card and a national treasure.
After all, Draudillon's Innate Talent was very powerful, but it required consuming souls.
Because she lacked the [World Connector] class, she could not access the power of the world's source, and could only substitute it with souls.
Such a transaction undoubtedly left her feeling extremely satisfied.
With these items in the Draconic Kingdom, even if a single guardian from the Great Tomb of Nazarick invaded, they could fight for several rounds and drive them back.
As long as someone in the Draconic Kingdom piloted the powered armor, everything would turn out fine.
Draudillon wore a look of joy:
"The deal is made, I am very satisfied."
"You may execute the terms."
This was precisely what Roy wanted.
The contract in Roy's hand emitted a faint glow, which would facilitate the copying of the Innate Talent.
The more satisfied the other party was, the more the transaction would be blessed by the God of Contracts.
Just like how Roy had paid tens of thousands of gold coins to buy Eirin's Innate Talent-he definitely hadn't lost out on that.
Both sides were quite satisfied; this was a fair trade.
However, Roy did not rush to copy [Wild Magic], instead summoning someone over.
A specialized magic scholar of World City, a pure magic researcher.
"My Lord ordered me to suspend my magic research. Could it be that you have obtained Wild Magic?"
"Yes, you may begin copying."
A voice appeared out of thin air in Little Garden, audible only to Roy and unheard by anyone else.
She was Shallan Wendell, World City's magic consultant and a specialized magic researcher.
If the world had to choose one Sorcerer Mentor, she would undoubtedly be far more qualified than Ainz.
Name: Shallan Wendell Race: Dark Elf Class Levels: Mage: LV15 Advanced Mage: LV10 Grand Mage: LV5 Academic Mage: LV15 Magic Expert: LV10 Magic Mentor: LV5 Illusionist: LV15 High Illusionist: LV10 Trick Mage: LV5 Truth Mage: LV5 World Deceiver: LV5
In Yggdrasil, there was a special class called Illusionist.
When they cultivated it to the highest realm, they could deceive the entire world, thereby utilizing all systems of magic.
Yet the weakness was also extremely obvious: all of Sharan's classes belonged to the [Caster-Type], and she had spent a full 100 levels building toward the [World Deceiver], so naturally she had no stats to speak of.
Yet what Roy had his eyes on wasn't attack power; in her background, Sharan was a pure magic researcher and a magic genius in the truest sense.
Roy did not yet possess the aptitude of a magic genius, and researching Wild Magic would take a very long time, but he had an entire magic team.
Come on, let me see the power of a peerless magic genius.
Sharan revealed an excited expression:
"Thank you, My Lord. Then I shall not stand on ceremony."
"I wish to copy Draudillon Oriculus's Innate Talent."
The activation effect of the super-tier magic was breathtaking, as though countless stars were answering a summons.
Starlight was brilliant.
Array after array of magic circles proclaimed the formidable prestige of super-tier magic.
Then the magic circles shattered.
Activation failed, unable to copy.
Truly useless trash.
Roy had already anticipated this in his heart; a world-class rank had to be resolved by world-class means.
Draudillon suddenly felt magic power infuse her body, only for it to vanish instantly.
She asked cautiously:
"Big brother? Are you alright?"
"Can the contract still be carried out?"
These things, this lady is not giving back to you.
Draudillon displayed the dragon race's avaricious side.
As a result, Roy smiled:
"It's fine, we will use the second clause of the contract."
"When copying fails, transfer the ability."
"I will transfer your Innate Talent to [Shallan Wendell]."
Originally, the World Merchant could only conduct transactions between himself and others, and could not mediate transactions between two other parties.
However, World's Richest Man was an auxiliary class to the World Merchant.
It could break any restriction of the World Merchant, transforming the class into its maximum-power form.
Could two world-class classes fail to budge a single Innate Talent of yours?
The answer was yes.
With a loud rumble.
The divine will of the God of Contracts manifested upon Roy, transforming into its complete form under the enhancement of World's Richest Man.
The deal is made, payment and goods are settled.
Draudillon felt pain, as though the first time in her life had been taken away.
Wuwuwu!
Anyway, anyway, I couldn't use it anyway; I'll just pretend I never had it.
Draudillon continuously convinced herself, then felt a wave of emptiness.
She could no longer sense Wild Magic.
Perhaps this was also a form of release.
Shortly after, Draudillon heard a burst of laughter.
"Hahaha!"
"So that's how it is. I understand, I understand everything."
"I saw a vast ocean; that is the source, the ultimate destination countless mages strive to reach."
"I never expected the dragons of this world to possess it right from birth. It is truly enviable."
"I am so envious I want to slaughter them all, leaving not a single one behind."
When Sharan acquired the Innate Talent of [Wild Magic], she could not help but laugh aloud.
Even her illusions could not be maintained.
Roy could not help but look at Sharan, using the Spirit Appraisal Eye.
The result was astonishing; he couldn't see her talents at all.
Sensing the Spirit Appraisal Eye, Sharan let out a giggling laugh:
"My Lord, your Spirit Appraisal Eye is only at the [A-] tier."
"Previously, unaware of this ability, I would have been seen through unawares."
"Once I understand the principle of the Spirit Appraisal Eye, I can modify spells to counter Innate Talents."
"However, this spell is not yet mature; as long as My Lord upgrades it to S-rank, you will be able to see through everything."
Roy had naturally considered upgrading the Innate Talent.
Originally, he had intended to collect more talents before making a judgment on which had the most upgrade value.
Now that Sharan put it this way, Roy immediately used the Shooting Star Ring.
Maximum Magic Power Upon a Star!
A Shooting Star Ring possessed three charges, and Roy stood on no ceremony, using all of them directly.
Upgrade [Spirit Appraisal Eye] for me.
All three charges of the Shooting Star Ring used at once yielded a truly astonishing effect.
A-[7 slots] -- S-[10 slots]
One level per slot, is it?
Come again, this lord has plenty to spare.
The Shooting Star Ring activated once more.
S-[10 slots] -- S+[12 slots]
Sure enough.
He had clearly consumed three super-tier magic charges, yet he could only raise it to [S+].
This was the limit value of super-tier magic; it could not reach the EX tier.
Roy could not help but look toward Shallan.
[Name: Shallan] [Race: Dark Elf] [Age: 509 years] [Level: 100/100] [Class: ...] [HP: ...] [MP: ...] [Vital Statistics: B90/W60/H92] [Innate Talents: Spirit Appraisal Eye, Wild Magic] [Rank: S-rank (11 slots), EX (30 slots)] [Capacity: 105 slots]
A massive influx of information poured into Roy's mind, even noting down methods for training Innate Talents.
He hadn't expected an S+-ranked Spirit Appraisal Eye to bring so much extra information all at once.
It was truly an Innate Talent with immense potential.
Raising it to the EX tier in the future would definitely unleash even greater value.
Roy looked at the information on Sharan and said softly:
"Sharan, how is your research coming along?"
"Will this Wild Magic contaminate Tier Magic?"
The reason Roy hadn't transferred it to himself was because Wild Magic had been contaminated by a "Twenty"-class World Item.
That item was [Five Elements Counter], which could swap magic systems.
If Roy had transferred it and caused his Tier Magic to malfunction, wouldn't he instantly become a clown?
Sharan said with a beaming smile:
"It will, and it won't!"
"For instance, the Dragon Queen is unable to practice Tier Magic because of this Innate Talent."
"However, as long as My Lord possesses world-class classes, you need not worry about contamination by the Five Elements Counter, and you can wield both Tier Magic and Wild Magic simultaneously."
"The catch is that whoever casts Wild Magic must possess a certain class."
"Namely, the [World Connector] class, in order to touch the source and acquire its power."
"I possess the power of the [World Deceiver], which allows me to disguise myself as a [World Connector] and borrow the power of the source."
"High-Tier Item Creation -- Dragon Treasure!"
An item actually appeared in Sharan's hand.
This time, he had truly struck it rich.
