Chapter 19: Order of The Sacred Scale
Both Naga and the priest seated facing each other. The priest is still smiling and it seems that he has an important message.
Naga doesn't have any idea what's going on. "How can I help? Do you want to meet my master?"
"I want to know what's young master's plan?" The old man asked.
"Oh, I See. You don't need to worry. My young lord is here to help the..." Naga was interrupted before finishing what he wanted to say.
"No, what I want to know is your plan, young master?" Father Justus asked. He's more serious now.
"What do you mean?" Naga was caught off guard. He frowned but he's still acting cool.
"Sorry, young master. I didn't go here to hinder your plan. I just want you to know that our Order of The Sacred Scale is willing to provide help whenever you need." Father Justus told Naga and lightly bowed.
"Huh? Are you not a servant of God? I mean you are truly a priest, right?" Naga asked. He's confused.
"Yes. I am a devoted follower of God. Our Order of The Sacred Scale is one of the three secret organizations serving the Holy Land."
Naga is carefully listening now. He's getting interested.
The old priest continued, "We are followers of the Holy Dragon King, the only Dragon with true devotion to God. One of our ancestral teachings is to help any man with untainted Dragon Mana and no affiliation to any cursed dragons or any current dragon kings." The old priest paused.
"Untainted? Cursed?" Naga frowned and asked.
"Your Dragon Mana is pure. Even if you compare it to those Dragon Legacy Successors, yours are much purer and powerful. Just a little bit less compared to your friend's Ancient Prime. It can't be helped since you were not born a dragon. But still, surprising for a human."
Naga didn't get much information but he was surprised hearing about the Ancient Prime. He was so shocked.
"We know it young master. His Ancient Prime is too powerful. It seems like he was born with it." The old priest said.
"I see. Father Justus, is there a way to hide its presence?" Naga asked.
"Yes, there is. Would you like to visit our humble church, young master?" Father Justus asked smiling.
"Yes. There's no harm with it." Naga smiled too.
They left and travelled. Many hotel employees were suprised. They didn't expect this. However, they believed that the old priest just wanted to show the young kid the commoner's town and their church. Perhaps the kid is also a believer.
Meanwhile, Old Samuel is at the place where they will open a shop. They were given a big commercial place.
"Great! Please tell our great City Lord that we are really happy with the place." Old Samuel smiled. He's thankful and satisfied.
"Yes, we'll do!" The official said.
"What are you planning to sell aside from weapons and armors?" Another official asked.
"Some other things. You wll be surprised. Expect magic items of course." Old Samuel proudly answered.
"Wow! That's great!"
"We are looking forward to it, sir!"
The guards and the officials are happy and thankful right now. Everyone wanted to have magical items.
Old Samuel did check the second floor and also the backyard of the commercial space. He asked assistance from the officials to create a room here. The officials agreed since this is just a simple request.
Around this time, Bill is inside one of Crimson Earth's owned villa and he's talking to an elderly woman. This old woman is one of the elders from Crimson Earth.
"Lord Willard, it's good that you're here now in the city. I want to be honest with you... We'll not hinder your plan in helping the city. But also, don't expect any help from us." The old woman said.
This is within Bill's expectation, "It's fine, elder. I'm thankful enough for the approval of your respected clan."
"Oh please. You're helping us in a way too. We are only here in name. This is not even part of our main teritory. It's just that the city lord's grand father, the previous emperor and our grand elder were great friends so we're asked to stay and protect this place by using the name of the clan." the old woman replied.
"I heard that you're opening a business. We have the same business here but don't worry about us. We only open those stores out of boredom but please do mind about the gangs. There are a lot of experts hiding here. This is one of the oldest cities anyway." the old woman advised Bill.
"I thank you for your kindness respected elder." Bill smiled and bowed lightly.
The old woman is satisfied with the young noble's attitude. He's kind and respectful to everyone. Also most importantly, she can feel the Ancient Prime. As one of the clan's elders, she's powerful and knowledgeable enough about it. She's even thinking that this young noble is part of a powerful organization. Being friends with him is better than antagonizing him.
