Chapter 99: Insufficient Purity
"But Anvis, can you tell us what you want these cursed ores for?"
On the other side, after agreeing to Anvis's request, Pekkala couldn't help but asked curiously.
Although Claire on the side seemed to have a dull reaction, her slightly twitching pointed ears also meant that she was very interested in the answer to this question.
Although the curse effect of cursed metal sounds terrifying, it is actually very ordinary for people in their class.
As long as one's physical fitness reaches the level of a fourth-level professional, one can be completely immune to the curse field of low- to mid-level ores.
Therefore, most of the cursed ore transactions are actually purchased by low-level adventurers as materials to assist in forging the body.
There are even some civilian-born warriors who, because they cannot afford other physical training resources, will go to the mines in the cursed land to use the cursed force field there to forge their bodies.
However, compared to other methods of body training, the effect of using curses to fortify the body is very limited.
Moreover, the curse causes great damage to the body and requires a long period of recuperation afterwards. Those professionals with strong backgrounds simply disdain this.
"Unfortunately, ladies, I can only tell you that it involves one of my private magic experiments. As for the specific content of the experiment, I cannot disclose it."
In response to Pekkala's question, Avis chuckled and shook his head. He did not answer directly, but just revealed it in an understatement. This somewhat disappointed the two girls who were full of curiosity.
"No, I'm sorry, it was Pekkala who was abrupt."
Although she was a little regretful, Pekkala just showed an apologetic expression and politely apologized for her previous inappropriate questions.
"Ring-ling——"
The soft crystal bell rang, and coincidentally, the dining time previously scheduled by the three of them was coming to an end.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Pekkala stood up and left.
"Then, Sir Anvis, I will go back first. Within three days, I will prepare the ore and cursed land information you need, and then I will contact you.
Sister Claire, if you need anything, you can tell me now, so we can prepare together—"
"Thank you, Pekkala, I don't need anything for now-"
Hearing this, Claire shook her head slightly and placed the silver knives and forks neatly back on the tray with her delicate hands.
"Then, Avis, I'll take my leave too."
Finally nodding to the boy, the blond half-elf girl also stood up and left.
Watching the two girls leave, Anvis sniffed the faint and graceful fragrance left in the air of the room, and smiled with unknown meaning.
"A dream of charm with a purity of about 20%? A childish trick..."
This thing is actually a special "fun" fragrance, but some people will dilute it and use it as perfume to enhance the favorability of the opposite-sex negotiation partner and give them more advantages in negotiations.
Shaking his head, Anvis took out a dark gold pocket watch, skillfully opened the cover with his long fingers wearing pure white gloves, and looked at the time elegantly.
"There are still three and a half minutes, just enough time-"
Putting the watch back into his pocket, Anvis rang the magic bell, called the waiter, and handed him a small package and a tip of one credit.
Instruct him to deliver the package to the front desk of the Olivendi Chamber of Commerce branch and specify to hand it over to Valen, the head of the chamber of commerce.
The waiter, an ordinary young professional apprentice, was surprised to receive credit as a tip. After bowing deeply to thank Anvis, he respectfully left the room.
Although they are not students and cannot use their credits directly, they can also exchange their credits for gold coins in the college trade area.
Thirty gold coins are equivalent to one month's salary.
Then, a magical light flashed in the palm of Anvis's hand, and he summoned a magic mirror.
After briefly checking his appearance, he calmly stood up and left. He went to another private room that had been reserved and sat down on a soft sofa in the center of the room.
When the magic clock struck two o'clock in the afternoon, the door of the private room was knocked on time.
"Good afternoon, Sir Anvis."
The door opened automatically, and a tall, elegant, blond aristocratic young man walked into the room with a smile, and bowed to Anvis very formally.
He is the seventeenth son of Lord Coravin, Harvey Coravin.
When he was a child, he often participated in the tea parties of the Olivendi family, but he usually only played a background role. He was one of the few peers who had a good personal relationship with Anvis.
At least in the eyes of others——
"Okay, Mr. Harvey, you didn't have this attitude before."
Anvis stretched out his hand and gestured elegantly to the other sofa on his left.
There is a small round coffee table of cedar wood placed next to the sofa, and two glasses of gorgeous juice are placed on the silver tray on the coffee table.
Harvey's eyes lit up, he walked over and picked up one of the glasses, shaking it slightly.
Faint silvery white light spots appear in the slender goblet. Through the colorful juice, it reflects a beautiful and dreamy colorful halo, like stars floating in the aurora ocean.
"The complete version of Rainbow Star Sea, with real northern aurora dust added, good stuff——"
Looking at the brilliant luster changing in the clear goblet, Harvey took a sip.
Feeling the various wonderful aromas that are constantly changing at the entrance, as well as the extremely active spiritual power, a trace of intoxication can't help but appear in the eyes.
"Really, Aurora Dust is not that easy to get in the royal capital. Those despicable merchants always use Dream Moth's phosphorus powder to make up for it! Even though it looks similar, the taste is almost as bad as Severn's.
You know, it's okay for those who haven't tasted it, once they taste the real rainbow star sea.
Then the inferior product with the addition of dream moth phosphorus powder is like a vulgar peasant woman forced to dress up as the Silver Rose of Angoloda, which is off-putting. ”①
Harvey put the goblet in his hand back on the tray, smacked his lips, and made a grimace of satisfaction. He relaxed his body and leaned back, sinking into the soft sofa.
"After all, we can't require everyone to be like our Lord Harvey, with a particularly keen perception like a dragon."
Regarding Harvey's comments, Anvis just spread his hands and smiled lightly.
"Tell me, dear Harvey, why did you come to me this time—"
.
….….
While Avis was talking to Harvey, on the other side was the Pamir College trading area, where the Olivendi Chamber of Commerce was located.
"A package delivered to me by name? From a restaurant waiter?"
Listening to the report from the female receptionist at the front desk, the head of the chamber of commerce, Warren, frowned, looked at an inconspicuous emblem in the corner of the package, and nodded clearly.
"I understand, go back to work."
Waving away his staff, Warren stretched out his hand and touched the emblem with a hint of spiritual power on his fingertips.
The pale silver lines shone slightly, and the package opened automatically. Inside was a small box and a note.
After reading the content on the note, Valen immediately understood Anvis' purpose.
.
….….
①. The Silver Rose of Angoloda: In the ancient myth of Siviser, the little princess of the king of gods is famous for her beauty and innocence.
