After I opened up Jagan’s stats, they have been precisely as I remembered.
He doesn’t have as a lot stat restraint as the opposite 72 demons, and the explanation for that’s the trait [Lazy Reproduction].
That is among the many most damning of the [Gifted] traits, and because of this, it’s bestowed upon characters who’re naturally gifted, however rapidly turn into decrepit.
In different phrases, the character is ready to develop to a sure stage in a brief period of time, however by no means reaches the next stage.
In different phrases, the proprietor’s restrict is clearly drawn.
There’s a motive why it’s categorized as a unfavorable trait.
‘I requested.’
Smug by nature, a swearer, and a satan who doesn’t conceal.
These are Jagan’s most important traits.
‘Nonetheless, it’s weaker than the 2 opponents we confronted earlier, with solely two abilities to show it. I can’t really matter them.’
In fact, it’s not so dangerous to have two [gifted] traits.
It’s simply that it’s totally different in Internal Lunatic.
The hole between genius and fruad. Essentially the most excessive instance of that is the sport Internal Lunatic.
As such, it may be stated that Jagan is surprisingly weak in comparison with the facility of the Grand Duke. It implies that if I and my colleagues are united, there may be nothing that we will’t overcome.
Whether or not he knew what I used to be considering or not, he rapidly drew the viewers’s consideration to himself and commenced to introduce the primary object. It was an artifact I didn’t keep in mind.
Apart from the foremost gadgets, it was as acquainted to me because the bass taking part in within the background.
“With out additional ado, let me introduce you to the primary artifact. It’s primarily based on the black magic grimoire that offers with the useless of a sure underworld household!”
The very first thing that got here out of the audio system was one thing that may trigger a stir.
That’s proper, Jagan confirmed the 2 nobles a forbidden e book that allowed them to study black magic.
Even the previous councilor of engineering…
“I see, they stole the Marvas household’s approach.”
Leon stated bluntly.
A relaxed voice that made it exhausting to consider that he was the one who had his legacy stolen. No less than he seemed nonchalant.
‘ …I’m the one with the [Steel Mentality], but it surely’s actually one thing.’
Until you’re one of many folks whose psychological power has been honed to the acute, those who’re referred to as the Seven Stars right here, this Runenthal…
With renewed admiration, I watch the grasping tempo of the 2 bidding nobles. All of them appear to be fully engrossed within the e book, however I can clearly learn the demon’s mindset.
‘There are solely a handful of individuals in the complete continent who can actually grasp the foundations of feminine blood black magic. The proof is that, not like different magic within the Aegean, black magic requires the Darkish Elemental Factor.
Because of this whoever buys it gained’t be capable to use it.
At least three nice darkish masters.
Except for Reinhafer, Marvas, and Sader, there aren’t any wizards nor warlocks on this planet who can grasp that stage of magic.
That’s most likely why the despicable Jagan is peddling these grimoires.
‘Moreover, there’s no approach it’s genuine, it’s an imitation.’
However that didn’t imply a lot to the the Aristocracy.
Extravagance, consumption.
It was the degenerate the Aristocracy who flaunted their wealth, even to the purpose of buying slaves.
There are different good folks on the market, however they’re not the type of people that can be VIPs right here in Avalat searching for playing odds. So, since we’re right here, it’s most likely greatest to imagine that everyone however ourselves is an enemy.
Jagan was finding out and indulging in alchemical recipes some time again.
The outdated Kingdom of Catalonia.
The legendary Kingdom of Sook, based by two people from the start of time.
Jagan obtained this scroll from the ruins.{2}
It seemed like a collection of runes carved right into a jagged form with esoteric characters.
It didn’t take him lengthy to comprehend that it was a fraction of the previous, written as an idiom.
Nonetheless, whereas he was fairly educated as an alchemist, he had little data of glyphs or different research.
He wanted to think about a brand new option to examine this scroll.
Alongside this was the concept of auctioning it off at a ridiculous worth.
‘That approach,’ he stated, ‘all of the middle-class nobles will fall away, and solely those that can determine the jackpot will probably be left to purchase it. I simply want to ensure he buys the scrolls, learns learn how to use it, kills the jackrabbit, and repossesses the products.
Jagan hoped he might someway discover somebody who acknowledged the origins of the scroll.
To not point out learn how to use the scroll.
A really diabolical concept.
Even when a rich collector of scrolls have been keen to pay for the artifact, Jagan had no reservations.
He already had the proper antidote.
‘First, I’ll test to see if he’s a well-known face, if he’s a daily right here, if he’s a gambler… and if he’s, I’ll make it tougher for him to outbid me with a bigger sum of money by my subordinates disguised as VIPs.’
It’s an effective way to get essentially the most out of your money and time.
There’s something to be stated for making an attempt at the least somewhat bit.
To that finish, it was simply over three months in the past that phrase was unfold throughout the continent {that a} scroll crafted from historical language would seem within the public sale homes of Avilat.
Now the time for harvest had arrived.
So he was sure.
The public sale home had found a brand new face.
No real interest in anything, solely this specific merchandise.
I consider that the white-haired boy who bid an insignificant quantity holds the important thing to this scroll.
Jagan smiled with satisfaction.
“5 thousand gold… Are you able to not bid greater than that?”
That’s all it took.
A person whose pastime was shopping for books was intrigued.
“Fiftey-one hundred! I would like this… I’m so , I can’t cease myself.” {3}
However the gray-haired boy was undeterred by the person’s bid and raised his bid once more.
“Six thousand.”
“Ugh… 6.5 thousand!”
“8 thousand.”
“I don’t know… 1 million!”
“1 million 2 thousand.”
“1.1 million and 500 thousand…”
At that second, Nox might really feel his abdomen churning.
Nonetheless, Nox didn’t look like fearful in any respect.
As an alternative, he requested the lady subsequent to him in a whisper.
“So, Eleanor, like I stated, how a lot cash are you able to lend me?”
The white-haired boy requested the lady sitting subsequent to him with a very shameless angle. What was stated wasn’t heard, however the message was clearly instructed that he requested for some cash.
It was actually absurd, however what was much more stunning was the lady’s reply.
“Hmm… I’ve solely received about two million, and I can’t carry greater than that, not even within the subspace pocket, I had no alternative, so I couldn’t even convey it contained in the on line casino.”
“I’ll borrow the entire thing.”
“What about curiosity?”
“Don’t fear. I’ll pay you again by the tip of the day. I’ll offer you one %.”
Paracelsus, Leon, and Thalia have been shocked.
How might he be so informal about borrowing cash and speaking about it?
Nonetheless, the actual downside was on the opposite aspect.
Zitri.
She had been horrified on the sight of the slaves, and now she was horrified at her grasp’s phrases.
TN:
{1} : Idk if these numbers are proper in any respect, went forwards and backwards a couple of occasions and nonetheless unsure. There may also be some like bar/bullion equivalancy with like tiers of currencies hidden right here.
{2} : There’s some hidden reference right here that I don’t acknowledge.
{3} : Simplified the numbers right here however some nuance is eliminated.
Will take me some time to get again into the groove of issues. There’s much more background work so it takes some time longer than it used to (I’ve to acquire and manually convert the raws). However, on that good shit now and I’m pleased to choose this again up.
