Magic Shop System

Chapter 164 - Attack



Chapter 164 - Attack

Today Rayna opened the restaurant as Kadyn had instructed. Many people went to try her food after purchasing potions or artefacts, and without any surprise, most of the people loved the food. Earning their praises and money at the same time. Kove and Nefia helped her, as she didn't have staff. While Khrom, Slyff and Cecelia went out to gather the information. Barret was the only one who didn't know what to do, left with no choice, he could only go to the Medicine Garden.

Kadyn sat in the Meditation Room, gazing at the 13,000 energy points with a grin. "I didn't think I could earn so much money in such a short time."

 Furthermore, these 13,000 energy points were left after paying everyone in the shop. 

"I can upgrade the shop now." He opened the window and put the shop on the upgrade.

[Do you want to put on an act and upgrade the shop in twenty-four hours, or do you want an instant upgrade?]

"Oh, now, such an option is also available?" Kadyn said and selected an instant upgrade. Building a new shop in a single night wasn't a big deal in an extensive empire like Ceston, not many would think too much into it. Moreover, the upgrade would change the shop just a little, no one would even notice it. So Kadyn didn't waste his time and went the easy and fast way.

[All the functions have been upgraded to Rank 2.]

[New function Pengolla Formation has been added to the shop.]

After scanning the information he had received just now, Kadyn realized that the defences of the shop had been upgraded, and now, not even a low Rank 4 mage could harm him and anyone else inside the shop. Other than the defences and the library, other buildings were also upgraded. Even Medicine Garden could now breed Uncommon rank medicines. While elementary rank would grow even faster.

There was also a new function added to the shop. Pengolla Formation. By using it any employee could travel the whole Pengolla just like Kadyn. This gave Kadyn a pleasant surprise. Now his employees could travel all over the world and gather all kinds of medicines, ores and even information. 

And to teleport back they just needed to think, and they would be sent back to the shop.

"This is great!" Kadyn said.

Knock! Knock!

Someone was outside the Meditation Room. Kadyn opened the door and stared at the figure outside. "What's the matter, Cecelia?"

"I have interesting information." She glanced at him. "Would you like to know?"

"Sure." He walked out and sat on the sofa that was lying beside the counter. Cecelia sat on another couch. "Go ahead," he said.

"There is a group of people outside the Ceston Empire." Kadyn straightened his back as soon as he heard her words. She followed. "Their leader is called Staurious. If I'm not wrong he is Rank 3 mage."

"What about the garrison stationed at the border?"

"Captured," said Cecelia. "Those people devoured every single soldier. Blood and soul. Nothing left except their husk skeletons."

"Bone Spear Tower?" Kadyn widened his eyes in shock. He remembered Sandrock village. All the villagers had lost their blood and soul. Only later did he realize that it was the work of Bone Spear Tower.

"What are they trying to do?" he asked.

"It was one of my clones who was monitoring the situation there. It seems Staurious is trying to become a Core Disciple of Bone Spear Tower, and he needs to kill three low Rank 3 mages for that. There was only a single Rank 3 mage stationed in the garrison, so I suppose they would attack two other posts. I was thinking about following them but they discovered me. Staurious killed my clone in a single attack."

Kadyn nodded and asked the system to evaluate the value of the information. "300,000 Ces!" Kadyn exclaimed. Three hundred thousand Ces were equal to 3000 energy points. He looked at Cecelia and stood up. "Let's go."

"Where are we going?"

"To advertise the Hall of Information." Kadyn grinned as he strode towards the exit. Cecilia stared at his back, then followed hurriedly.

"What brought you here, Mr. Kadyn, at this hour?" Omm Woulsto was enjoying the warmth of his mistress when the guard knocked on his door. Though he felt a little irritated, he rushed out when he realized Kadyn had important information that would let his status rise in the House Woulsto.

"Can we talk inside?" Kadyn said.

"Of course, of course," Omm Woulsto led the duo enthusiastically towards the guest room. Kadyn didn't notice Hayla at this hour, an unfamiliar servant was serving them. He waited for him to leave, only then did he turn towards Omm. "The information is related to Bone Spear Tower."

"What?" Omm almost jumped on his feet. A clear fear was visible inside his eyes. A normal reaction for a citizen of Ceston Empire. They had experienced the terror of Bone Spear Tower for years. They had experienced their cruelty, cold-blooded ways and evil magic. 

"Calm down," Kadyn said. "If I knew anyone else I wouldn't have come to you. Your luck isn't bad. What do you say? You want to do a little business?"

"I—"

"You need to make your decision right now because the enemy is moving pretty fast."

Omm closed his eyes, he clenched his teeth and then said, "Alright, what price do I need to pay to earn the information?"

"You need to pay just three hundred thousand Ces. However," Kadyn said, "I need you to do one more thing for me."

"What is that?" he said. "If the information is useful, and if your demand is just and within my reach, I will do my best to fulfill it."

Though he didn't have as much prestige as he used to have in the past. Three hundred thousand Ceses weren't too much for him. He felt even agitated, if the information was useful he might gain a better standing in the House Woulsto.

"Good," Kadyn nodded. "I need you to spread news about our Information Hall."

"Huh?" Omm looked at him confusedly, as if he didn't understand.

While Cecelia's eyes glittered in understanding when she heard his request.
