Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel
23 Just one missing...
Bama had a smile on his face at the beginning of the list. However, as he read further, his frown slowly morphed into a frown.
All of a sudden, he felt his mouth which had been watery for the blue beast's core only moments ago suddenly turn dry. He swallowed hard, but nothing went through his throat.
Some of the herbs and plants he was seeing on the list, he had never ever heard of them. The atmosphere in the room was in perfect cool condition but small beads of sweat had suddenly formed on his forehead.
He absolutely could not believe what he was reading. He dropped the paper and took a good look at Chiron. A sixth sense he had acquired from being a merchant for many years alarmed him of a trap he had just fallen into.
However, Chiron had an innocently-curious but nervous look on his face. Much like he was skeptical about winning and only hoping for the best.
It was a very believable look. In fact, it was so believable that Bama doubted his sixth sense that he had honed through many years of business.
He suddenly doubted if many of the herbs listed were even herbs. "Yes! there was that possibility." he thought to himself.
Immediately, he stood up and reached a cabinet. Bringing out a very big book of herbs and plants. The book was so large that the grown man had to carry it with both hands.
He dropped it on his desk and opened it. With the list in hand, he checked the name of each plant.
Many of the names were so weird and twisted that it almost sounded as if Chiron had made them up.
But to Bama's surprise, he saw most of the plants listed in the book he had brought out. However, many of them were plants that grew under very specific conditions.
Like one plant called a thunder-seven-mirrored leaf. This was a plant that only grew when a green-cored beast took a shit under the eclipse of the sun and the shit was left to ferment under the rain for ninety days and was struck by thunder seven times.
Such a plant was rare, but it still existed. However, Bama knew his shop did not have it.
He suddenly started to nurse the thought of betraying the contract. However, the moment he did, he coughed out some blood in spittle.
This was the blood pact taking effect. All Bama had done was think about a solution around the blood pact and he was already spitting out blood.
Chiron saw this and pretend to be scared as he tenderly apologized.
"Don't worry! Don't worry!! It's just an old sickness of mine. Nothing much," Bama waved his hand.
Chiron could guess what had just happened. He smiled in his heart knowing that he had won. "It's time for the finishing move," Chiron thought to himself.
With a pitying look on his face, Chiron brought out another paper. This paper had a seal on it.
This action of his did not escape Bama's eyes.
"What is that?" Bama asked.
"Oh! it's nothing. This is just my Master Elder's seal. I have a feeling I have already lost our wager. I don't mind killing myself here. The seal has my Master's spirit imprint in it. Once I'm dead, you can just locate My master's home with it and drop me there."
Bama looked at Chiron weirdly, but just to be sure, he checked the seal Chiron claimed to belong to his master elder.
Bama was not an active cultivator. He hovered somewhere along the second stage of the wood rank. His main focus was business, but what he had was enough for him to check the seal.
He sent a little spirit energy into it and to his surprise, The feedback energy he got was actually far high than his own, confirming Chiron's words.
Getting the Seal to Aleen's spirit energy was not really a big deal. All Chiron had to do was use his abundant knowledge of Spirit symbols on the lock Aleen hid his spirit stones under his bed.
Chiron stole just a tiny thread amount of spirit energy from the lock and placed it on a seal using spirit symbols. The process was difficult, but at the moment, it proved to be worth it.
In fact, if Bama had only pushed more of his spirit energy into the seal, he would have noticed the copper spirit energy was just a thread. However, all businessmen were skeptical people. It was easy for them to always assume the worse.
even more so for this man that had just lost a bet. he was not even in his right state of mind at the moment.
The betting agreement was for him to supply Chiron with as many of the items on the list that Chiron wanted if he did not have all, as well as the payment of a hundred yellow beast cores and one green beast core.
With the look Chiron saw on Bama's face, he knew it was done and dusted. He had won.
Chiron had only dropped the seal containing Aleen's spirit energy in other to deter any mischievous thoughts Bama might still have after the contract was nullified.
Chiron finally got the herbs he needed and extra beast cores that could benefit him in the future. In fact, not just the herbs he wanted, but a good many other herbs. Bama ended up not having up to thirty percent of the herbs on Chiron's list. According to the agreement, he had to supply Chiron with the herbs for free.
Naturally, Chiron was smart enough not to carry the herbs himself back home. Instead, he used some of the beast cores Bama had given him and paid Bama for home delivery.
That day, Chiron went back home smiling. However, when the herbs reached home, one of Chiron's fears came through.
One last ingredient was missing from the herbs Bama sent over. Chiron knew the blood pact was strict. If Bama did not send the last ingredient over, then it meant that he did not have it.
As one would expect, the last Ingredient missing was the thousand-year-old Violet good will flower.
"Shit!!! I had a feeling this would happen."
