The price was not low, but it had already been adjusted to fit within what he could bear.
He did not have three million on hand, but one and a half million was entirely affordable, and after a year—once he completed the Earl’s quota—he would also be able to pay the remaining balance.
The drake would be killed by Johnny, and it was only reasonable that the drake’s corpse and the valuable items within the ruins would belong to him.
What instead seemed rather generous was that Johnny had proactively given up the parts that could be refined into Mana.
