Orion stepped out of the academy’s library with a faint, satisfied smile. The three memory crystals were placed inside his inventory, and he planned to use them once he get back home.
Feeling the crisp morning air of the Thunderpeak Royal Academy, he made his way towards the exit. Passing through the huge academy gate, he soon spotted the location of his luxurious obsidian carriage.
Lucan looked curiously towards him and raised an eyebrow and asked with a playful tone, "Did you went for a quickie Young Master? Why back so soon?"
Orion’s lips twitched hearing his words as he looked at him, "You...sigh. Anyways, I got what I needed from the academy."
Edgar lightly slapped Lucan’s back of the head before calmly asking Orion, "Then should we head back, Young Master?"
Looking towards the outer rings, Orion shook his head, "No, let’s go to the Limitless Heaven. I feel like its been years since I last met with Magi."
While rubbing the back of his head, Lucan said, "Years? Its not even been a week though."
Orion lightly smiled and boarded the carriage before Edgar and Lucan looked at each other before getting to their respective spots.
The carriage rolled smoothly through the capital, wheels humming softly over the cobbled streets as it headed for the fourth ring.
After reaching the fourth ring, Orion once again see the increase in numbers of passersby as well as merchants and adventurers.
The carriage continued travelling before soon ariving outside the shopping district. Orion descended and headed straight for the Limitless Heaven with Eldric on his side.
Soon, he reached the three story building where the guards greeted him respectfully, he nodded back at them before entering the establishment.
He directly ascended to the third floor with Edgar where Magi usually stays. The air here carried a faint fragrance of polished wood and aged wine.
At the center, Magi sat at his lavish desk, a half-finished mug of beer in one hand and a relaxed smile on his face. Perched comfortably on his shoulder was Luna, the white rabbit, whose twitching nose betrayed mild curiosity at Orion’s arrival.
"Magi," Orion greeted with an amused grin, "will you ever stop drinking or not?"
Magi chuckled, standing to greet him and placing the bottle back on the table with care. "Boss, it’s rare for me to relax like this. The business is finally running smooth enough that I have the luxury to sit idle and drink for once."
Orion returned the smile, stepping closer. "Then how’s the business going?"
With a wry tilt of his lips, Magi shrugged. "What changes could there be in such a short time?"
Orion laughed softly, scratching his chin. "Ah, right. I keep forgetting, it hasn’t even been a week. Guess you won’t have any money for me, then."
Magi’s lips twitched in mock irritation. "Why do you always come to empty my coffers? And this time, you didn’t even wait a few days." Luna gave a faint flick of her ears as if echoing the sentiment.
Orion lightly laughed, a playful gleam flickering in his eyes as he looked at Magi’s mock irritation. "Money generates money, Magi. Didn’t I give you a mountain of goods precisely for that?"
Magi dragged a palm down his face, Luna mirroring the motion with a slow ear-swipe. "Boss, I know the proverb. But first I have to sell the mountain. Mountains don’t move themselves, unless they explode, and even the nobles take their time contemplating their purchases."
