Dammit!! It's all this bastard Tom's fault. If he would have told me sooner that we are going to his house, I would have come with proper arrangements like hidden camera, they can be used for blackmailing and he he he(creepy laugh).
Of course, it was to keep an eye on Tom and blackmailing him. Well, maybe to know his sisters too. But as a gentleman, I am not going to blackmail them and will win over thier heart if I want them.
But thier recording can certainly be used to make my day brighter and as a Scoin sisters, they are bound to be beautiful.
After we sat on sofa, Tom looked towards me seriously and said"Alex, the thing is I want you to work under me."
It cause me to look at him keenly"Are you some young businessman." That's something which I don't know but Tom shakes his head denying my guesses.
"No, what I want you to do is something even more important and its not a fix job, your work will depend upon circumstances. It may be to steal something, to even kill and it may also be cleaning.
What you do is what I say you do is what I means."
"So you want me to be your slave." I said with clear displeasure in my voice and face, that's something which I won't even consider befre refusing.
"No, it will be a position very important than just a mere slave. Here take this drink and book, think of your answer after drinking it and try what is written in this book if you still have doubts." Tom said giving me a book and small vial of plastic, maybe due to budget, poor fellow.
No, not that poor. He has 15000 destiny points and each destiny points worth a SP.
As the gifts he is giving me, maybe I should take it. Can't refuse as it may broke his heart and he may die from heart attack, which I will not let happen till I fuck his wives in front of him.
So, I aggread and after taking both of these, I left.
After Alex left, the red ring appeared on Tom hand and a voice from it ask "Do you know him from before or you trust everyone so much."
"The past me would have trusted everyone easily but I don't. As for giving that technique, I just have to kill him like that guy if he wrongly uses it against me."
The one is taking about was someone who was present with another person when he was checking the hill where the fight occurred, he asked tom some questions and his loose tongue does its job.
They fight and his opponent was stronger but with the help of his dragoness, tom was able to defeat them however the dragoness who still haven't told him his name used too much of her energy and haven't left the ring since then.
He was very injured from the fight and only after he get treatment did he get better.
As for the things he gave to Alex, the drink was body tempering potion, it removes harmful substances from the body making it stronger. He make it himself after he recieved the recipe from the dragoness.
He buy ingredients for them from the local market, as for money. His new friend is rich.
"Now, even if I spend somedays outside training or something else, I will have a body double at home and no need to worry that he will betray, he is just too weak compared to you."
"If you think so." The dragoness said as she went silent, she is able to smell a dragon blood nearby but she hasn't told Tom about it yet.
......
I soon returned to 'my' home and then checked out what were the gifts I have recieved from my new 'boss' but there was also another headache.
I have recieved a message which have some information about my mission tomorrow, I completely forgot about it because of all this system and scoin shit.
Anyway, all I have to do is show up at the place at the 8 pm in my best clothing.
Let's leave it for tomorrow evening , I still have things to do.
After that, I took the vial and appraised it, it was a poor quality F- rank body tempering potion but it is enough for me for my next breakthrough.
As for the book, it has a disguise technique.
It doesn't need any type of energy, just some colours and temporary changing of face muscles, it can be used for one day max but the process is painful.
After that, he put that aside and started looking for a good mana core formation art to buy.
There were not many of them, but the prices between them varies.
A beginner mage mana core is always neutral, it only have pure mana inside it no matter the technique used but what can be different are grades of mana core.
There are five grades of mana core and once a mana core is created, changing its grade is so difficult that it is almost impossible, the easiest way is to destroy the previous one and create new.
The grade of mana cores decides how many breakthrough one can have, if one has 5th grade mana core, he can only only make three breakthrough before entering next realm of apprentice mage and I there too he can make 3 breakthrough.
While a 1st grade core can help make 11 breakthrough in first realms before entering next realm.
[ A Beginner assassin core ( Combat Type )
Description- A mana core formation Art suitable for mage assassin path.
Cost- 150 SP ]
But since I don't have that much SP I can only buy one of a 3rd grade core formation art which cost 150 SP and is suitable for blade weapon, as for it limiting my potential. I will just fix it by changing core after I get familiar with mana and has enough points or if lucky enough, I can change without losing progress.
But then came the problem, the first of the three steps is to sense mana and even after trying my best for half and hour, I couldn't sense it.
In the end, I decided to take a rest and try it again tomorrow and contracted Cairda, she has already arranged a car for him, so he is going to take someone who loves car on a drive.
