Chapter 63: The Quest To Save Lily [5] [EXTRA]



(BONUS CHAPTER FOR 100 POWERSTONES LAST WEEK!)

****

Amon's calm gaze locked with Athena's indifferent one.

He knew that she was only like this from the outside but inside, she was fuming and frustrated.

If not for the special quality of these mana cores, she would have never bought them.

This was exactly why his deal had worked.

"70 Million-"

"I guess we are done-" Amon started to stand up.

"Wait!" Athena called out.

"80 Million Exlor and a Platinum Membership of HO-"

"I told you my terms, M-"

"90 Million Exlor and a Platinum Member-" Athena called out again.

"No, I'm done. Thank-" Amon was interrupted once more as he took a few steps towards the door.

The natural pressure exuding off of her was increasing with each offer she gave but he gritted his teeth and beared it without a change in his expression.

"95M Exlor and a Platinum Membership of HOU. I can-" She was interrupted the final time as he voiced out his approval and came back to sit down on his chair with a smile.

The pressure of hers instantly disappeared as she saw his expression, her anger being replaced with immense shock.

Looking at the smile, she finally realized how big of a mistake she had just made.

She had been enveloped too much in her impulses that she had failed to notice that he was just trying his luck on how far he could go.

And as soon as she blurted the nearest option, he agreed and now she couldn't lower it.

It was truly embarrassing for her to get manipulated by an 18-year-old child.

She sighed.

He displayed all the mana cores on the table again.

"So, as you said, Miss Athena. 95M Exlor and a Platinum Membership with HOU."

Suppressing a grit of her teeth, she nodded.

"Perfect." He smiled honestly.

After a minute, the light finally dimmed down and she nodded.

"I see, you may leave." She replied and he nodded, turning back to leave once again. But as he opened the door and was about to leave, her final words resounded in the room.

"I do not know how you teleported in the FULLDIVE match using your blood element. The system didn't pick up any artifact or item use. You don't possess a spatial element as well you say...."

Amon froze in his tracks again and his head did a sharp turn back towards the room.

However, Athena was no longer sitting there, having already disappeared.

"Amon Ashford...you are an intriguing one." Her last words echoed, making a shudder run

down his spine.

He quickly shook his head, trying to shake off the thoughts, and headed towards the counter.

****

Amon headed towards the counter with his platinum card.

The manager saw him and instantly greeted him.

"Welcome back sir! How many I help you today?" He asked, asking nothing about the deal.

Amon nodded and handed him a list.

"I would like to purchase all these materials. And I have a platinum membership card as well." He flashed his card.

The manager wasn't surprised and nodded with a smile.

Athena had probably told him about it and asked him to prepare a personal card for him.

It also must have not been much of a surprise for him initially as well since he had seen the

cores as well.

A platinum membership card was the least Athena would have to give if one excluded the

money.

"Just a few moments Sir, I'll be right back with the top-tier materials." He bowed and went to

the back.

Amon smiled.

It was finally time to get the materials of his sword.

This was the first step in his plan to save Lily.
