Chapter 166: Migration ( 16 )

[355 Million Evolution Points have been added]

[Coins worth 3.55 Million Gold coins have been added to inventory]

Rowan smiled as he read the messages displayed by the system.

He had expected his profit to be high, given the recent events, but he never imagined it would be this substantial; the numbers exceeded his wildest expectations.

"This is very good! I can finally obtain the awakening potion, awaken my mana core, and finally be able to copy and use magic skills!" he thought, a smile spreading across his face.

"You are very rich for an F-rank territory lord; most D-rank territory lords don't possess this much wealth," D'andre commented.

"I'm still curious, how did you manage to gain all this in such a short while? What sort of newbie package did you receive after transmigrating? Reward multiplication? 100% loot rate?" he asked.

Rowan merely shook his head and told him that he was simply lucky.

D'andre was pretty accurate in his guesses, but Rowan would be foolish to reveal his skills.

Without wasting any time, Rowan proceeded to purchase what he wanted.

D'andre opened his store, and all the available items were revealed to Rowan, causing his eyes to narrow as they focused on the items.

As usual, he began by exploring the weapon section.

This time, he was able to obtain uncommon-grade items, which were much more superior and effective compared to the common-grade ones currently in the possession of his soldiers, promising a significant boost in their combat abilities.

Rowan picked the number of weapons he needed, and a new window opened before him.

[Purchase WEAPONS]

Cost: 67,000,000

PURCHASE? YES/NO

D'andre's eyes widened a little as he saw the amount of weapons Rowan was going to purchase at once. Although surprised, he didn't overreact like the last time.

After obtaining the weapons, Rowan moved on to the skill page, which featured a lot of skill books as well as spell books.

They were all F & E-rank skills and spells, offering a range of basic to slightly advanced abilities suitable for his current needs.

Rowan analyzed all the skill books available before purchasing the ones he needed. It cost him around twenty million evolution points.

In the food supply section, Rowan was lucky to find a large supply of way more food items than the last time, as well as seeds.

Luckily, there were food pills and feeds for different livestock available. Searᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"I knew his coming to the village would be a major advantage to me!" Rowan smirked as he confirmed the purchase.

Rowan checked all the sections in the store before reaching a section that piqued his interest.

[MAPS]

[Wishiros Detailed Map - 2,000,000 E.P]

[Wishiros Treasure Map - 5,000,000 E.P]

[Wishiros Dungeon Map - 10,000,000 E.P]

Rowan clicked on the description of the maps and was pretty excited about their features. The detailed map showcased all the locations in the country, as well as inhabited and unexplored lands.

The treasure and dungeon maps pointed out the locations of unexplored treasure caves and dungeons.

Rowan had used these two maps while playing the game, so he knew just how important they were.

Obtaining one was like obtaining a cheat card to maneuver the game to your advantage.

Without wasting any time, Rowan purchased all of them and stored them securely in his inventory, feeling a sense of satisfaction as he did so.

He purchased every other thing he needed.

"You spent more than 400 million evolution points! You are really insane! If you are looking for someone to be kind to, please do so with me. Gift me one hundred million evolution points, and I'll see you as my brother!" D'andre let out with an amused smile.

Rowan could only snort.

Right now, he needed a little bit of information about Wishiros, and he didn't mind getting it from D'andre.

D'andre was willing to engage in conversation as long as he had the free will to run his mouth however he liked.

Rowan listened carefully to his yapping, drawing out the useful information.

He got to learn important details from him: how the country is currently under the control of a transmigrator.

He didn't mention the name of the transmigrator, but Rowan suspected it was Venerable Mario.

Rowan got to learn of some big institutions like magic schools, tournament grounds, and some recurring inheritance contests that take place every year. According to him, one was coming up very soon.

Aside from those, Rowan learned of a pretty dark secret.

"Currently, there is a really powerful dark organization trying to take over Wishiros. I think their name is the Cult of Ember Justice; they've destroyed so many territories in the last few months, leaving devastation in their wake," D'andre began with a frown.

"Somehow, all these territories they brought to the ground belong to transmigrators, which makes it feel like they are specifically going for such territories," he continued, turning to Rowan with a concerned expression.

"I am telling you this because I want you to be extra careful and prepared for the worst."

Rowan digested the information with a frown.

"A dark organization targeting only transmigrated lords? This is really bad," he pondered.

While Rowan was pondering, D'andre gave him a word of advice that made him frown even more, adding to his growing concerns.

"Few of the lords who survived the destruction of their very own territories had one thing in particular—the destruction was brought to them by someone within. So do not fully trust your followers. Also, it's best if you don't allow any intruders in; they might just be one of the cultists in disguise," he continued.

Only one name came to Rowan's mind after hearing all this—Vishirk!

"Vishirk doesn't look like he could hurt a fly. Could it be him? And if he is really the one, why would he be trying to help me get stronger, knowing I would have to challenge him someday?" Rowan thought about the matter for a moment.

"What if Dragun is the one?" His mind wandered even more, considering every possible candidate.

Seeing the contemplative expression on Rowan's face, D'andre could not help but ask, "Is there someone like that in your village?"

"Nah," Rowan denied.

"That's great, keep it that way," D'andre smiled and concluded the topic.

Rowan nodded and relaxed in his seat.

"Is Elara taken?" D'andre suddenly asked.

"No," Rowan replied casually.

"Then let's make a deal: help me woo her, and I'll reward you with something useful and expensive."

"And what's that?"

"It's a secret for now," D'andre smirked with a smug expression.

"Wait... If you manage to woo her, are you going to take her away from my village?" Rowan asked the needed question.

Elara is an important character in terms of agriculture.

She is the only one in the village currently with the ability to take care of the livestock. Without her, the livestock might end up dying from preventable diseases.

"Huh? I am a merchant who moves from territory to territory on an hourly basis with less free time for myself. How do you expect me to keep or even take a woman with me?" D'andre laughed heartily.

"Alright then, I'll give you tips on how to woo her, but I won't woo her for you or force her to like you; it goes against my principles," Rowan accepted after hearing he wouldn't be taking her away.

"Sure, I'll appreciate some tips. But what if it fails?"

"I assure you it won't fail; I am an expert in the art of wooing women," Rowan bragged with a proud smirk.

D'andre was happy to receive all the help he could get to woo Elara.

Rowan, on the other hand, did not waste time and shared the tips.

He told D'andre about everything he understood about her character, like what she hated and what she loved the most.

Rowan ensured to emphasize the fact that she loves rearing animals.

He spoke more about how providing her with a mountain of animal feed would help win her heart the easiest.

This way, if D'andre provided them, it would help his territory and not just Elara, benefiting everyone involved and strengthening their resources.

D'andre was so deep in love and lust for Elara that he failed to realize he was being played.

"Damn! I know what to do now!" he exclaimed happily after hearing everything Rowan said.

"Yeah, do all that, and just maybe, you might be able to break the cold wall in her heart. Also, don't be smug and overconfident around her; it'd just reduce your chances," Rowan concluded.

D'andre nodded; in his mind, he was already imagining romantic scenes with her.

"Least I forget, where is her beautiful sister? I think Liara was her name..." D'andre suddenly asked.

In Bruce's house.

His wife and two other women were currently watching Liara and Ren, who were still deep asleep from consuming the dream potion.

Suddenly, both of their mouths opened at the same time as they began speaking in strange, undecipherable tongues.

The women stood up quickly and rushed to them.
