Chapter 745: Chapter 429: Provoking the Battle Angel_2
“This…this…this…” Lucidia was astounded by the skill’s force. She herself could probably blow such a strong one-off, fully-charged attack, but it was a long-ranged attack.
Consider this, she was about evenly matched with a Sword Saint, a tough opponent she could barely hold off. In the moment following a fierce clash in which they rebound from each other, she lets this ‘Lucidia Slash’ loose on an enemy who’s just retreated and hasn’t caught their breath yet. Wouldn’t that be a sight for sore eyes?
Death blow!
Rubbing his hands together, Silver Coin said sincerely, “This move hasn’t been named yet. If you don’t mind spending a bit, the mage who created it will be only too happy to hand over the naming rights to you.”
“Fine, I’ll buy the naming rights. I want to name this skill the ‘Lucidia Slash’!” Lucidia replied with excitement.
“What a great name! Also, this World Tree wood can only withstand five such full-fledged disintegrations, there are four left.” Silver Coin added.
...
“What? Only four times left?” Lucidia was taken aback.
“Yes, unless we have a new batch of World Tree wood, there will only be four times left.” responded Silver Coin.
“Alright, I’ll keep an eye out for more of this type of wood. Anyways, let’s discuss the Flame Emblem’s price now.” noted Lucidia.
Silver Coin quoted a price which made Lucidia’s eyes widen in surprise, “What? 200,000 Demon Crystals, so cheap?”
Not expensive, but cheap. Absurdly cheap. Apart from the ‘Lucidia Slash’, just the resonance effect with her force had Lucidia hooked. She had prepared herself for a considerable expenditure, only to find Silver Coin’s offer magnificent.
Silver Coin inwardly rolled his eyes but with a sincere look on his face, he said, “Including the naming fee, that’s 300,000. Most of the main materials were bought by you, we only charge for the labor.”
“This…this is too kind of you.” Lucidia was saying embarrassingly, her hands behind her back making quick gestures. Her lady’s maid hastily presents three Magic Crystal Cards, each worth 100,000.
Silver Coin accepted them without hesitation and said, “Deal closed, a pleasure doing business with you. Hope we can collaborate more in future. Now, I must take my leave.”
“Hang on, what’s this empty space here for?” Lucidia suddenly recalled something and hurriedly called Silver Coin back.
She had a Flame Emblem embedded on one side of her sword, but the other side was vacant.
Originally, her sword had only one spot for embedding an emblem when it was without the World Tree’s protection. But why were there two spots with the added protection now?
Is the empty spot for replacing the emblem? Was that necessary? If not, then why create a spot for it? Lucidia was irked by the redundancy.
“Oh, that’s the spot for a second Flame Emblem. You can embed another identical Flame Emblem there for simultaneous use.” Silver Coin responded.
“Good grief, why didn’t you mention this sooner? Hurry, bring me your Fourth-tier Flame Emblem… no, bring them all. I’ll take them all.” Lucidia said impatiently.
Once he sold Flame Emblems of all tiers and had pocketed a few more Magic Crystal Cards, only then did Silver Coin step into the Teleportation Array. Just before he activated the teleportation, he seemed to recall something and said, “Oh, right. Our Master Alchemist said that if this Flame Emblem, along with a sword and armor are matched as a set, the power will be more…”
Before he could finish, the Teleportation Array started up and Silver Coin vanished within the light, leaving only a remnant of his words: the power will be more…
More what? More what?! Lucidia was so flustered she wanted to run off to the bathroom. Only then did she remember: Silver Coin never left his contact information.
If they had traded through the House of the Deceased, she could contact Silver Coin anytime through them.
But sometimes, for confidentiality or tax evasion reasons, some people chose to trade directly and privately. Silver Coin was one such case.
Only when he had teleported away did Lucidia remember that she hadn’t asked for his contact information.
All because the shock of the Flame Emblem had been too overwhelming. Lucidia looked at the empty Teleportation Array miserably and muttered,
“More what? What does ‘more’ mean? More power? You should have told me earlier, I would have preordered the whole set. I, Lucidia, only want the best.”
Silver Coin, upon returning to Godfall Town, presented eight Magic Crystal Cards, each worth 100,000, and recounted what happened. Bronze Dragon, Durken, and Roxy could only sit, agape in astonishment.
“Someone was looking to buy a Flame Emblem worth 50,000 Demon Crystals, and yet you sold one million worth of goods? Twenty times over? Are you kidding?!” Negris exclaimed unbelievingly.
“You asked me to post the World Tree wood sale in the House of the Deceased. From raw materials to labor costs, you kept everything. You’re a shrewd businessman.” Durken said, his face approving.

“You sold the naming rights alone for 100,000 Demon Crystals? I… I can’t understand the world of the rich, but I’m massively shocked.” Roxy’s face showed her worldview had been shattered.
She had 600 Soul Crystals, which at max could be exchanged for 1,800 Demon Crystals. However, someone had just spent 100,000 on naming rights, a purchase that left no physical evidence.
Durken asked curiously, “Why did you leave that cliffhanger at the end? Are you baiting her? But why didn’t you leave your contact information?”
Baiting? Roxy, a veteran fisherwoman, suddenly perked up. Blinking her eyes, it took a while for her to realize Durken’s idea of baiting had nothing in common with her own one.
