Chapter 129: Chapter 48:The Party
4:30 PM finally arrived and Adryan is now dressed in a hooded cloak and a simple mask.
Now he was on his way to the place where the party would be held and he had the container in his pockets and all the money that was in the bag.
'I'll have to rob another gang before I leave Nathan and Sasha's house,' Adryan thought calmly as he moved through the alleys to avoid being seen.
Arriving at the metal door and touching the combination that the newspaper said, he waited until the same man from the last time opened it and after observing him for a few moments he allowed him to enter.
Entering and looking around he saw some people equally disguised and he also saw Mr. Eye of Wisdom was sitting in the same place as last time who upon seeing him his uncovered mouth opened slightly but it only lasted a moment and then he smiled and nodded.
Adryan nodded back and looked for a place to sit while he waited for the party to start he began to think about what the lady had told him yesterday.
'Xio said that we won't have another meeting this week because she has to take care of Coin's mother....'
'I can't even imagine what that woman is going through, losing a daughter like that...' Adryan thought as he felt his heart ache for the woman.
Deciding that the best thing would be to meditate to pass the time, the redhead closed his eyes and emptied his mind and let it wander.
At 10 minutes after 5:00 p.m. and seeing that no one else arrived, Mr. Eye of Wisdom got up from his seat and spoke aloud.
"Seeing that our friends couldn't make it, we can't wait any longer so the party can start."
When he finished saying that, Mr. Eye of Wisdom sat down again and another man on one side got up.
"I'm looking for purifying bullets, does anyone have them?"
"Here 15 bullets 5 pounds...."
Listening to the procedures and not being interested in any of them, time passed for Adryan until he saw how a person who was dressed in the same way as the woman to whom he sold the Briber formula stood up.
"I am selling an beyonder object this time it is about glasses that allow one to understand much faster whatever you are reading no matter what it is about, the negative effect is that once you start reading a book with the glasses on you have to finish it or you will have a great anxiety for 2 hours"
"The starting price is 500 pounds"
'You are here, beautiful lady,' Adryan thought with a smile beneath his mask.
"510 pounds"
"515 pounds"
"520...."
After a while the glasses were finally sold for 650 pounds and the redhead could understand.
That ability to understand much faster whatever one reads is undoubtedly useful but that was not something he needed, he did needs something much more efficient .....
...
Before the woman could sit back down she heard a voice that sounded somewhat familiar.
"Miss, I would like to place an order" turning her gaze, she saw what seemed to be a man from the voice, he had raised his hand.
"Sir, I'm sorry but I don't have any more beyonder weapons, you'll have to wait till the next party" the woman replied but the man still had his arm raised.
"I want to ask you to make me a beyonder artifact"
Freezing slightly the woman was surprised by this request but remembering her grandfather's words she only nodded.
"Custom order is more expensive, are you still interested in making one?" she asked the man who just nodded.
"I am"
"Do you have any special preferences regarding your artifact?"
"I want the negative effects to be quite low as well as the artifact to specialize in dealing with evil spirits, wraiths, corruption and undead"
Silence filled the room and everyone was surprised at this advanced request.
'What is he planning to fight against?' thought the woman who quickly made some mental calculations but they were interrupted by the man who spoke again.
"I want this to be used to make my artifact." The man said as he took a container out of his cloak and calling a worker he placed it on the tray and was taken to the woman who took it and noticed that it had a wall of spirituality around it.
Glancing sideways at the man who noticed this and just shrugged before speaking again.
"I would never do anything to harm the members of Mr. Eye of Wisdom's party and I can even open it myself if it makes you feel safer."Although the voice was normal and there had been no insult, she couldn't help but feel somewhat offended by the words.
"That won't be necessary" she shook her head as she undid the wall of spirituality and opened the box seeing that there was a beautiful golden stone that emitted an aura that made her feel pure and holy.
'This is?!' Looking again at the man who only made himself more comfortable in the chair, she returned her gaze to the stone before closing the container again and redoing the wall of spirituality.
"This reduces the price considerably but it will still be expensive, do you have any other requirements for the artifact, for example if you want it to be a weapon or a glove?"
Following the questions her grandfather had given her, she saw the man nod.
"I don't want it to be a weapon, I prefer something more discreet and that it doesn't bother my hands or movement, that would be my requirements"
The woman noted the man's request in her mind and tucked the container inside her cloak.
"Your order will be ready within 1 or 2 weeks, you will be told the price at the next party, do you agree with this?"
"It seems fair to me" was the man's short response and there this transaction ended....
....
It took a short moment for another transaction to start but after a few moments the party continued normally until Mr. Eye of Wisdom ended the party.
The first to leave was the lady who sold the glasses, then they all abandoned it until only Mr. Eye of Wisdom and Adryan remained, who raised an eyebrow at this.
Mr.Eye of Wisdom gestured to the workers who left the room, leaving the two of them alone.
After that the man got up and motioned for Adryan to follow him and the redhead did so still somewhat hesitantly.
They both reached a hidden room and closing the door Isengar removed his mask from his face and Adryan did the same.
"What's wrong Teacher Isengar?"
