Chương 96: Transaction

Before Kuroka says anything, Azazel says something while looking at Ophis.

"Before you say anything, I need to ask you something, Kuroka. Is that what I think it is?"

Azazel points his finger at Ophis in worry. I guess I cannot blame him for it. Ophis is coming into his headquarters. A leader of the terrorist group and one of the most powerful creatures in the world.

"Yup~ She is Ophis, nya~."

"That is what I am afraid of."

Azazel rubs his forehead before sitting down on the sofa where he molested Gabriel's body pillow and took out a bottle of whiskey from under the couch.

"Please sit down."

I look at Lucina, nod my head, walk toward the sofa in front of him, and sit down in front of Azazel. Lucina sits down next to me with Ophis on her while Kuroka walks behind Azazel and stands behind him as if she is his bodyguard.

"So! What can I do for you?"

I look at him with a confused expression before asking him.

"You did not want to ask who we are?"

"Nah. Kuroka vouch for you, so I can trust you, but a name would be nice."

"Isaac Lionheart and sitting next to me is my wife…"

I look at Lucina, who smiles at Azazel while feeding Ophis with the cookies I bake.

"Lucina Lionheart. Nice to meet you."

"The pleasure is all mine. Azazel, the Governor-General of the Fallen Angels and Grigori"

After introducing himself, Azazel looks at me and says.

"So! What can I do for you?"

"I come here to sell something."

"Oh? I don't want to doubt you, but I'm not willing to buy any more gold or other jewelry from you. Many magicians come to me with that offer already."

I shake my head and summon out a one-kilo ingot of Adamantium from my pocket dimension. If my power says is correct, Adamantium is one of the rarest metals in this world. The reason is that this metal is created by the Dwarves who went to the other world with the elves.

The metal itself is unique as it was the only metal that can be used to contain all types of energy. From Demonic Energy to Divine Energy. Many metals usually can only carry one type of energy, but Adamantium can absorb all energy types.

Not only that, but Adamantium also has high durability, making it a perfect metal for making armor and sword.

When Azazel sees Adamantium in my hand, he becomes serious and takes it from my hand. After a minute of touching it around, Azazel looked at me in the eyes with a serious expression.

"What do you want for this ingot?"

"Knowledge."

"Knowledge?"

"Yes. We want as many grimoires as you can give us. I especially want a teleportation spell and a grimoire about crafting."

"That's it? Easy enough"

"Well, we also need a few millions of yen of clean money for us to use. We come here for a vacation, after all. Oh! We also want legal identification like a passport."

"Easy enough. Anything else?"

"Nope. As long as you give us the grimoire and pocket money we can use, we are happy."

"Hmmm…. Come back tomorrow morning. Your request will be ready tomorrow morning."

"Thank you."

"No, Isaac. I thank you."

I shake his hand and let Kuroka take us back to the alleyway we arrived at. While I know that metal is worth more than what I ask him, I don't really care. I still can summon eight more Adamantium for Lucina and me to experiment today.

|Azazel POV|

I look at the metal ingot in front of me with interest. The people from before are not normal. I know they are human, but they are different from your normal human magician. A normal magician did not have that massive pool of Mana or Qi.

While their reserve is not as massive as High-class beings, they almost reach it. Maybe in another two days of intense training, they will reach it.

Anyway, what makes me even more sure they are not a normal magician is their connection with Ophis. By the look of it, Ophis is really attached to them. While I do not really know the internal matter of the Khaos Brigade, I know the leader of the said organization is Ophis, and the last time I see her is in the Underworld when the Old Satan faction decides to attack, she did not care about anything and anyone even Sirzechs the most powerful devil in the world right now.

So, when two humans do not even reach the High-class power in terms of the energy reserve, I know there is something wrong there.

What sealing the deal is the item in front of me. Adamantium. The legendary metal the Dwarves made before they create their own world with the Elves. The metal that anyone can use as it was the only metal that can contain all types of energy in the world.

However, it was not the only thing the metal is known for. This is the only metal that can block the Power of Destruction the Bael Clan is known for. There is a reason why the Dwarves create this metal.

It was the time of the Old Satan reign where they tried to oppress the Dwarves using their force, and their commander was the infamous Zekram Bael. That time he is so prideful about his power as he continues to boast his ability to the high heaven.

However, one day his pride is trampled by the dwarves when they are equipped with a new type of armor that nullifies the infamous Power of Destruction of the Bael Clan. Because of this armor, the Dwarves won the war against the devil, who decided that it would not be wise to have a war on two fronts. They are still at war against heaven that day.

After the news of a new type of metal has been created by the infamous race of crafters, all factions decide to visit the Dwarves' land. Some of them come in peace, some of them come with their army.

The one that comes with their army comes back home with many of their army destroyed by dwarves golem army. What makes the dwarves' army so strong is because they are made of Adamantium, the same metal that nullifies the Power of destruction.

So when the news of the Dwarves and the Elves decide to go to the other world, many factions begin to scavenge all the tech and items from the dwarves' homeland. Some of them find a good chunk of Adamantium, some of them find only a little bit. I know that all of them have already been used to create a known legendary weapon and armor like the Poseidon Trident. It was made of pure Adamantium.

So when one kilo worth of Adamantium appears in front of me, I will take it. Also, the price is too low in my opinion. However, I will hold my word by copying as many grimoires as I can. Hell, if Isaac says that he wants the entire library of Grayzauberer, I will do it. I will beg Mephisto to let me copy all the grimoire of Grauzauberer.

While the Grigori did not have the same size library as the Grauzauberer have, the Grigori did not lose to them.

While my hands are itching to experiment with the Adamantium, I need to fulfill my end of the deal. However, when I'm done with it? Huhuhuhuhu. Just thinking about it gives me a good shiver on my back.
