Chapter 342 - Adamantine of Bad Luck
“I heard from Brook that Mage Felic purchased a pair of daggers from my shop?” That was the first thing the old man said after taking a seat beside Lin Li.
Lin Li could not help but feel wary. Could it be that this elder knew something about the daggers? Otherwise, why did he mention them? With such a suspicion, Lin Li nodded cautiously.
“That’s right. But, Mr. William, is there anything wrong with that?” Lin Li replied.
“No, no, no. I didn’t mean there to be anything wrong…” William responded. Lin Li’s question did not take away the smile on his face. “I’m only curious about the reason that attracted you to them. They had been in the showroom for around one or two decades. If Brook had not mentioned them to me just now, I would have forgotten about them…”
“Erm…” Lin Li glanced at the elder suspiciously. He was still wondering if the old dude got his courage to ask that sensitive question from drinking too much. Although there was no big secret hidden in the pair of daggers, why would the old man think he would let him know the reason behind his purchase when they were not even close to each other?
Hence, Lin Li responded with a light-hearted question. “Mr. William, what do you think about the weather today?”
“…” William had never been so speechless. Actually, although he knew that he had asked a sensitive question, he really asked out of curiosity.
Lin Li took a pause before he continued speaking.
“But, an advantage that the Adamantine of Bad Luck has that outweighs any other magical metals’ strong points is its capacity for storing unlimited magical elements. The Adamantine of Bad Luck would be able to overcome any source of mana and mageweath regardless of how menacing they are.”
