Chapter 488 -488
"Famous? Are you kidding me? Go back to the Human kingdom and ask them about you. You're like a God to the humans. You want to see how famous you are? Come with me to the World Trade Conference; it's being held in our kingdom this time," Faith spoke as she looked at Anon with a smile.
"I'm sorry, the what conference?" Anon asked with a confused expression.
"The World Trade Conference... You don't know about it?" Faith asked with a surprised expression.
"Yeah... If I remember correctly.... Never heard of it," Anon replied.
"The Trade Conference is a meeting of all the races that is held every year to refresh the terms of trading. Many representatives from every race come to this conference every year.
It's a surprise that you don't know anything about it..." Faith spoke.
"Why is it a surprise?" Anon asked with a confused expression.
"Because you are the biggest trader from the Human kingdom... Hell, you have three of the biggest resource-exporting companies in your name. I am really surprised that you don't know anything about this..." Faith informed Anon.
"The fuck?" Anon was left shocked when he heard this news.
"You don't know about it, do you?" Faith asked with a smile.
Anon immediately walked up to the window of the room and shouted, "MIKE...."
As soon as he shouted the word, Mike immediately appeared in front of him with Jessica beside him.
"We greet our Master," both of them spoke in unison as they bowed down to Anon.
"Mike, what the fuck is going on here? Faith says I am the biggest trader in the Human kingdom, and I have three of the biggest trading companies in my name. Is that true?" Anon asked with an angry expression.
"I-It is true, My Master," Mike replied with a stammering voice as he knew that Anon wasn't happy to hear this news.
"Wait! Is that our previous Queen, Miss. Jessica?" Faith asked with a doubtful expression as she walked up to Anon.
"Yeah, she is. Now, be silent and let me have this talk..." Anon spoke.
"Okay..." Faith spoke as she backed off immediately and started to wear her clothes again.
"Mike, why haven't I been informed about this information?" Anon asked.
"M-My master... I-I didn't tell you about this because I didn't want you to be distracted from your goal," Mike spoke as he continued to look down.
"Mike, since I came to this kingdom... I have spent my fair share of time with Elven women. You could've told me while I was doing that...
Fuck..." Anon spoke.
"M-My Master... I am ready for any punishment for this deadly crime that I just committed. Please kill me at this very moment for my mistake," Mike spoke as he summoned two daggers in his hands and showed them to Anon.
"Mike, don't speak nonsense. You know I'm not going to kill you. Do you have any record of these companies?" Anon asked as he calmed down a bit after seeing Mike's undying loyalty.
"I have everything stored inside my mind, Master. Just ask your question, and I'll answer it immediately, and if you need it in written form, please give me 30 minutes," Mike spoke.
"Okay, what are the names of my three companies?" Anon asked.
"Sir, all of your companies are named after you. The Ghost Wood supplier is called Anon Wood Suppliers Limited.
The company that supplies Wine and Alcohol is called Anon Wines and Alcohol Suppliers.
The last and final company supplies gadgets that make daily life easier for non-magic users. It's called Anon Gadgets Suppliers.
Here is one of the example products, sir." Mike spoke as he took out a small wooden box from his inventory and gave it to Anon.
Anon looked at the box, and only one thing came to his mind.
'Wow... This ghost wood is well-cut and well-furnished. I can tell that it's a good product just by holding it in my hands.' Anon thought as he turned the box over and noticed that on the top of the box, a big 'A' was written in a very fashionable manner.
"What is this?" Anon asked with a confused expression.
"It's a lighter and gas torch for anyone who travels long distances by foot or carriage. It can be used for making food, lighting cigars, and you can just keep it open for light as well... This thing is created by Madam Sephie.
It takes a little amount of mana, and it can go up to 3 days without flickering a bit." Mike explained.
Anon immediately opened the box, and suddenly a big flame started burning in front of him. The box was made on a simple concept.
It had three main components: a mana-storing ring at the bottom of the box, after that came the Fire Ball spell written down on rough paper, and at the top came a small copper pipe that combined both of them and gave out a fire based on the mana stored inside the ring.
On the outside of the box, only a small button was attached, which had direct connections to the mana storage ring. Anyone can click on the button and store the mana inside the mana storage ring to use it later in case of emergency.
"This thing runs on mana, right?" Anon asked with a confused expression.
"Yes, sir..." Mike replied.
"You made this thing for people who can't use magic, right? So, how will they store mana in this?" Anon asked.
"That's why we created this, sir." Mike said as he handed over another device to Anon.
It was a black stick that had a small red stone on its top. This red stone was a B-ranked magic crystal that can store up to fifty thousand mana without breaking.
"What is this?" Anon asked as he looked at the stick and noticed the same 'A' letter written on the other side of the stick.
"Master, this is a mana storage stick. A non-magic user can get another person to fill it up with mana for him once, and it can be used to recharge this box for the next month without any mana wastage." Mike spoke.
"So, it's a one-time thing?" Anon asked.
"No, sir... These sticks and boxes are embedded with specific mana patterns. Not everyone can fill them up with mana... If anyone unauthorized tries to fill up the crystal, it will explode." Mike explained.
"Then how do they get it filled?" Anon asked with a confused expression.
"Well, we have opened these shops inside the Human kingdom for now. They are called the Mana Recharge Shops. We provide mana refilling services in exchange for money." Mike replied.
"Wow... I mean, is anyone even buying these things?" Anon asked as he looked at the mana storage stick with a very suspicious expression.nOve)lb-In
"Master, the opening day sales were good, and it has only increased from there..."
"What was the opening day sales?" Anon asked.
"It was around 200 Jade Coins," Mike replied.
"The fucking what coin?" Faith shouted from behind.
"Wait, you're saying these things... made me about 20,000 Platinum coins on the opening day, and it's still increasing?" Anon asked with a smile.
"Yes... My Master," Mike replied.
