Chapter 1346: No Way Around It
“There is no way around getting a shitty geass?” the blacksmith as surprised that not even a god was all-knowing.
~Most attempts will just make it worse; you might even end up with several bad ones. If you really don't want it, you should hurry and become a legend or a god. Only then will you have the choice whether you accept it or not.~ The god told him nonchalantly.
Well, it made sense, but who knew how quickly the realm was going to awaken? It wasn't easy to become a legend. The cost to level up rose exponentially the higher he climbed, and he already didn't have an easy path. Unlike the others, he could not go around aura farming with adventures and heroic deeds.
Since the great tournament, he didn't really do any publicity stunts to get his name out to the system worlds. Of course, they won their battle with Spatia, but he didn't gain that much from this news. It was less about individuals and more about Minas Mar as a whole doing a great deed.
Maybe his plan to flood the auction house with high-quality gear had to be implemented sooner rather than later. And that when he just thought he could relax a little and just craft for as long as he felt like.
The god and the blacksmith talked for a while longer, but it was mostly inconsequential stuff until they got to the important part, which was ...
~150 Gold!~ Nas'Korn tried to haggle.
“You can't haggle AFTER the deal! We agreed on 250G and the information, nothing less!” the blacksmith argued against the voice nobody but him heard. He saw no reason for using
himself. It was the god's dignity that was falling, by trying to haggle with him.
~Tsk, fine. Taurio, go get 250 gold from the treasury and give it to the Tower Master. ~
