"Here, please call me Star Observer, Your Excellency." Malin, with a small smile, gestured in the air with his hand, and Spiritual Energy took the place of his touch, lifting the Half-human.

"Yes, Star Observer, Your Excellency, here I am the Fool, the only Fool." After the Half-human finished speaking, he stood up and turned to salute Mr. Fate: "Ah, old Fate, it is truly a joy to see you again."

"Yes, three-and-a-half-foot-tall Fool, Your Excellency, it brings me great pleasure to see you too, and it seems you are also acquainted with Star Observer, Your Excellency."

"Yes, and you too, Tower, Your Excellency. Greetings."

"Hello, Fool, Your Excellency. It looks like both of our groups have reason to thank Star Observer, Your Excellency."

"Well, everyone, now that all are present, we should begin the meeting. Thus, I now declare, the Council of Wizards begins," Malin raised his hand: "This meeting, as before, allows you to trade freely, but you can also come to me with questions and trade requests. I will help you fulfill your wishes."

Rolinsa felt she had nothing to trade—she and John had headed south, and for this journey, had converted their immovable properties and some unsuitable items into Sydney Union currency bearing Mowish’s likeness.

Over the years, Sydney Union currency had been appreciating in value. At first, Rolinsa had lost quite a bit to acquire them, but she quickly made a profit—because the Northern Kingdom had begun to refuse non-commercial guilds and Nobles from exchanging for Sydney Union currency, making it immediately become one of the hardest hard currencies, aside from Transcendent materials and gold and silver.

Some black markets for Transcendent materials in the Northern Kingdom even began to use this Paper Money from the Sydney Union in place of the Northern silver pound.

Nevertheless, it was clear that others did not feel the same way; Tower, Your Excellency, had put out high-level Transcendent Sequence ’Canticle’ third rung material, a Singer’s component, a tongue—a mermaid’s tongue.

Considering that Tower, Your Excellency, was an Elf and often traveled to Eternal Night Island, it was quite normal for him to capture mermaids in the ocean.

Moreover, a Singer’s material utilizing a mermaid’s tongue... had to be a male’s tongue.

Therefore, Rolinsa felt there was nothing more to say about it.

Ultimately, Mr. Fate exchanged a Doran viper’s gallbladder for the material, the former being a giant venomous snake from the Dark Zone in the East, with all parts venomous except for the gallbladder, thus a top-level material for many high Transcendent Sequences, and therefore very valuable. But considering the added difficulty of obtaining a male mermaid tongue, Rolinsa believed it to be a satisfactory deal for both parties.

Then she noticed Miss Temperance seemed to have some thoughts: "I have a friend in need of this, but I haven’t asked how much he is willing to pay. Tower, Your Excellency, may I reserve for my friend for next time?"

"Not a problem, Miss Secretary to Star Observer, Your Excellency, if I have the material next time, I could even go directly to Star Observer, Your Excellency, because he will bring me to you," Tower said with a smile.

"Many thanks. This makes me feel somewhat relieved. After meeting my master, I began to doubt whether the world was wrong. You, Your Excellency, made me realize, it’s not the world that is wrong." Miss Temperance said, smiling with some resentment.

Yes, indeed, if it’s not the world that is wrong, then it must be your fault—because although there are countless Fates for humans, everyone must make a choice and ultimately, step onto their own narrow path.

"I have two batches of Kelgan, does anyone need it?" Mr. Tim raised his hand at this time.

Kelgan, sounding like a person’s name, is actually the root of a Kay, a Spirits plant. They usually hide in the soil and if dug up by humans, they will let out a piercing scream to escape, and when humans cover their ears, they flee.

They are a tricky sort of Spirits—not harmful to humans, but every year some unfortunate souls become deaf due to them. Nevertheless, it’s a basic material for many Transcendent Sequences, needed from the seventh rung to the third, resulting in high demand and firm pricing.

Eventually, Miss Temperance spent a material and some money to buy them—three thousand silver pounds, a batch of Silverfish Heart.

This is a specialty found only along the southern coastline of Sydney, the Silverfish Heart is extensively used in the ’Runner’ and ’Demon Hunter’ Transcendent Sequences and even the top rung of Demon Hunter needs it to reduce distortion rates.

Thus, even if it’s not a required component for certain Sequences, merely incorporating it can reduce some of the danger of the Magic Potion.

This is good stuff, on par with two batches of Kelgan. So, to complete the transaction, Mr. Tim had to add an extra batch of Kelgan, exchanging a total of three for the materials and silver pounds Miss Temperance offered.

"Our Miss Temperance, although a secretary, possesses wealth to rival others," Power, Your Excellency, laughed while presenting the material he wanted to exchange—the tooth of a golden lion.

This type of Spirits lives in the wilderness and is a very dangerous one, and the terrain of the wilderness offers great advantages to both hunters and prey, making it not easy to catch, and a tooth as intact as this even more challenging.

It is a necessary material for the second rung advancement of a ’Faceless One’ in the Transcendent Sequence.

In the end, Miss Christian and Power, Your Excellency, completed the transaction—a young girl with wealth rivaling a secretary, she traded a batch of Blackfish Bone for the lion’s tooth, the former being a basic material for ’Northern Hunter’ second rung Sharpshooter.

It’s said that those who consume it could even swim in the bone-chilling seas of the North.

As someone from the Northern Kingdom, Rolinsa had only heard about it since it’s a secret formula owned by only a few Transcendent families, it seems this Miss Christian must be one of them.

While Rolinsa was wondering which family the young lady might belong to, the young Chariot raised his hand: "I have some information about the Eastern Kingdom, Star Observer, Your Excellency, I wish to have a private trade with you."

Private trade?

Rolinsa had to admit, her curiosity was like a fish that had taken the bait, being reeled in.
