Nathan took out a cube and asked, "How much are you going to pay me for this?"
Sullivan was stunned and glanced at the cube. "This is... the alien you're talking about?"
"Yes. Your team can definitely analyze them, right?"
"Of course."
"Can you track them? Considering it is remotely controlled, can you follow it to locate the culprit?"
"I'm not sure. There's a high chance it's untraceable. If they're that easily tracked, they won't survive this long. However, I will use all my connections to see if it's possible to track them down."
Nathan nodded. "So, how much are you going to pay me for this cube? Of course, in mature class cores."
Sullivan crossed his arms. "You have told me how to acquire this sample, so it's not really that big of a deal, right? I can procure one if I need it."
"Just tell me how much..." Nathan shook his head. "I have two of them, by the way."
Sullivan scratched the back of his head. On the one hand, he could pay him low, but it would mean disappointing Nathan.
It was true that Nathan and the organization that supported him had done a lot in the short amount of time. If he gave too little, there was a chance Nathan wouldn't help them anymore.
Sullivan raised two fingers. "I will buy them for 2 mature class cores each, so 4 cores in total. They are in a good condition, so it'll be easy to analyze them. However, I'm willing to fork out one more mature class core if you tell me what you have in mind regarding this matter."
Nathan shook his head. "I have yet to come up with a good plan. Only that we can't make a big move and force them to activate all those cubes."
"True. Right now, it's best to move secretly."
"However, I do have information about their symptoms. Due to the location of that alien, they are feeling 'full' and lose a bit of their appetite. It might cause other symptoms as well."
"Hoh?" Sullivan narrowed his eyes. "If that's the case, I can just contact the school doctor/nurse. They can ask the students casually without raising their suspicion." Discover more content at мѵʟ
"Hahaha. Just think about it. I will send you the details about the mission later."
"Alright then."
"Oh, that's right." Sullivan looked at Nathan with a serious expression. "Your fighting style is quite unique, you know that, right?"
"Yes."
"Is it something like this..." Sullivan raised his finger, imitating the gun hand sign.
"Yeah. Is there something wrong?" Nathan tilted his head in confusion.
"I kind of wonder why you don't want a weapon. I mean, you should be able to get a weapon like that if you describe them to the artisan. Don't forget that this is a magical weapon. It will amplify your power, giving you a much bigger boost in your firepower." Sullivan asked, "So, I wonder if you have a reason you're fighting with gloves instead of that one? Then again, you can use both of them at the same time."
Nathan contemplated for a moment. "I have thought about it. However, there is one thing that makes me a bit concerned. If I use that weapon, that means I won't be able to use the Dragon Fist."
Nathan thought that holding a gun didn't allow him to clench his fist for the Dragon Fist, which was annoying.
Sullivan nodded. "Anyway, the mission I'm talking about is related to the Blacksmith Guild. If you need a weapon or a consultation about the kind of weapon you need, you can do it after that mission. So, please think about it carefully."
"Alright. Thank you for your concern, Principal." Nathan bowed and turned around.
When Nathan stepped out of the principal's office, he was startled as a person was standing outside as though she had been waiting for him the whole time.
"Woah! You startled me. What is this? Alavenya... Are you trying to silence me? Or are you trying to retract the Summoners War?" Nathan smirked.
"Retract the challenge? Do you think I'm scared of you?"
"No? In that case, what are you planning to do here? Are you trying to sabotage me?"
Alavenya really wanted to beat him up, but this was not the time. She took a deep breath and said, "I'm here to finalize the challenge, such as the rules and the bet."
