Magic Shop System

But no one knew what was the use of that elixir, it was even more mysterious than the World Lotus itself. Legend above legend. Myth Beyond Myths. A myth that claimed that whoever gets the elixir in which the World Lotus grows, would rule the world.

World Lotus — it was written at the top of the scroll and a mysterious rune was blooming down in the form of a beautiful flower. It had unique petals — one of them was burning with fire, another was flowing like water. There was a petal covered in eerie darkness, and there was a petal that appeared to be almost invisible. There were all kinds of petals, weird and mysterious. Chilling and dazzling.

Then his gaze fell on the green leaves at the bottom, blooming with life energy. Then he looked at the water in which such a mysterious flower would grow. It was golden. And when Kadyn\'s gaze fell on the water his elemental pool started to vibrate, making a buzzing sound in his head as if cheering for something that Kadyn could not decipher.

Kadyn didn\'t think much after that and put the scroll in the pocket of his black coat. His heart was beating eagerly because he felt a resonance between the rune and the blessing element just now.

He was excited because ever since he awakened his elements he always wanted to know what the hell this thing called Blessing Element was. 

Now it seems he would be able to solve the mystery, or maybe not. Only time would tell, but no matter, he had felt a resonance between Blessing Element and the water inside the World Lotus Rune. Maybe after building the rune he would be able to solve this mystery.

When Kadyn walked out of the library, it was already 5 o\'clock in the morning. So he could just store the scroll for the time being. He needed to go out before anyone could spot the shop.

Kadyn didn\'t even go to inform others. After all, it would cause pain in the ass if someone were to discover a building standing in between the trees where there was supposed to be nothing. He didn\'t want to entangle himself in such a mess.

——

Kadyn strolled towards the Stunning Whirlwind Chamber of Commerce. He had just had breakfast in the nearby tavern before scuttling to do his business. Today was the promised day when the chamber of commerce would hold the auction.

As he passed through the pedestrians and vehicles on the road and arrived in front of the building. He looked around and found that it was the same as usual, not a thing had changed. Two guards were still standing in which one of them was picking his nose and the other his ear. 

Kadyn walked towards them with a smile. Both of them noticed him when he arrived about thirty meters away. They exchanged a pleasant look with each other and rushed towards Kadyn. 

"You are here, sir," one of the guards said politely. Then went on. "Our manager was very worried. He thought you won\'t show up in the end and went to another auction house to bid your thing."

Kadyn smiled but didn\'t reply. He looked around and asked. "Today is an auction, isn\'t it? Then why is this place still as deserted as the last time?"

"This…" they hesitated when they heard his question. After all, they can\'t possibly tell the condition of their auction house. They still wanted their jobs.

"Mr Kadyn," a voice came from behind them while the duo was in a dilemma. Kadyn eyed behind the guards and spotted Omm Woulsto standing there with a smile on his face. "I thought you would not come back."

"What are you talking about?" Kadyn replied politely. "Why would I go back on my words? I just don\'t like flies around me."

"Oh, I am really sorry about that," Omm said. "I will be more mindful next time."

"Much better."

The guards looked confused when they heard the conversation between the two of them. They exchanged glances and shook their heads. Not understanding a thing.

On the other hand, Omm led Kadyn towards the guestroom. Just now Kadyn had given him a short warning in a roundabout manner, and it seems the man had understood what he meant. 

Therefore, Kadyn didn\'t linger on the matter. It was better to be clear about some things, or it could become a trouble in the future — if Omm insisted on doing the same thing and made an excuse or played a fool, Kadyn would have been really disappointed; but the manager seems a lot more honest than he thought. He admitted his mistake straightforwardly. Not many people could do that.

The duo sat in the room as the maid served them beverages. It was the same maid who called Kadyn bumpkin the last time, but right now, her attitude was 180 degrees opposite to the last time. 

She appeared so polite and lovable that Kadyn blinked his eyes a few times and thought maybe she was someone else. But when the girl arrived in front of Kadyn she made a miserable expression as if pleading with him not to complain about her.

Kadyn couldn\'t help but chuckle at that and shook his head. He didn\'t hold any grudge against her, anyway. He would not destroy someone\'s life just because of a small comment. 

He turned towards Omm and asked.. "Why is the auction house so deserted? Isn\'t there an auction today? There should be a hustle-bustle and swarm of people around the auction hall."
