Infinite Mage
The merchant, receiving it with both hands, trembled. beacon He was so moved he could barely hold it properly.
Flipping his palm, Shirone spoke.
Shirone threw an Elixir to the merchant with the drone.
It wasn’t a Red, Green, or Yellow Elixir, but a White Elixir.

Shirone turned to the merchant fondling the Elixir and asked.
“This won’t do. atlas That Elixir must also be mine for the deal to proceed.”
“Then take it from him.”
The merchant’s eyes twitched, realizing Shirone’s actions weren’t mere provocations.
“How about it? armor Is it settled now? adapt Give Kanya the item.”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“No, no! airport The deal cannot be canceled!”
The merchant panicked, waving his hands.
“So, what will you do? alien Will you give it back?”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
The drone he sold was practically worth only a Yellow Elixir. acoustic To exchange it for a White Elixir was a once-in-a-lifetime gain.
Sure, the Mecha Tribe drone was valuable, but only if it was usable.
“So, what now? audit Are we going to have a fight among heretics? atlas Seems to be your specialty.”
The herbalist’s face hardened.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
The way he pressured like this meant he was undoubtedly a Norin, and not an easy one.
The herbalist then scrutinized Shirone.
This was indeed a tricky situation. wizard He could be shameless in customer negotiations, but conflict among merchants brought no benefits. armor Especially for lower community merchants who mainly dealt in daily necessities.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
But it was a matter of pride. abandon He didn’t want to accept that things had gone the citizen’s way.
Should he accept just one Elixir and move on? orbit Trading Epinephrine for a White Elixir would be a legendary deal.
“Fine, I won’t sell. alien So enjoy your toy. august Do you realize you’ve crushed this girl’s hopes?”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Shirone knew he had won the game.
The merchant had thrown in the towel. arch He chose the satisfaction of victory over profit.
As a merchant, it was a zero-point deal, but he didn’t care as long as he could see the citizen despair.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
It wasn’t just knowing; it was the end. wizard At the very least, he would lose his foothold in the community.
“You said you would sell the potion if I brought all my Elixirs. silence Kanya did that. apple Suddenly canceling the deal is a breach of contract. amber You know what happens to a merchant who loses credibility, right?”
“What? avalanche How am I violating any contract?”
“No, you must sell the potion. artist Otherwise, you’re violating the contract.”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“How do you know when I bought the drone?”
But he also felt a bit wronged. orbit Shirone was being stubborn.
The herbalist’s eyes widened in shock. canvas Though he had lost his cool, his long experience in trading had given him a hunch.
“Be clear. altitude When I proposed the contract, you had two Elixirs. artist After the deal was made, you bought the drone, so I haven’t violated anything.”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
The herbalist ground his teeth. silence His hunch was right.
“I already had a contract to buy the drone. attic I just hadn’t handed over the Elixir yet. altitude As a merchant, you should have confirmed that before making a deal. amateur If you doubt it, feel free to check.”
He was at a disadvantage.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
‘Why am I at a disadvantage? atlas It should be the opposite.’
The merchant who sold the drone would back Shirone no matter what. atomic Proving his contract with Shirone meant the White Elixir’s ownership would transfer.
As he reviewed the situation, the herbalist realized Shirone had known the drone’s lower value.
This was a common occurrence on the mainland. airport He had no right to complain, having exploited monopolies himself.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
He let out an exclamation. acoustic Shirone understood human nature’s relationship with material goods. amber Even mainland merchants would find him formidable.
How Shirone figured it out was unclear, but without it, the current situation wouldn’t exist.
The merchant sided with Shirone because he made several times the profit.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Of course, we did. palette We made a verbal agreement to trade the drone for a White Elixir before the girl started yelling.”
Though unrequested, Shirone confirmed it directly.
“So, what do you think? adapt We had the first contract, right?”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Now, there was no way out. silence If he had a deal with another merchant, it was his fault for not checking the customer’s limit.
Should he back down? ability One White Elixir was an incredible gain, but it was a matter of pride.
He went for self-pity.
The herbalist played his lowest card as a merchant.

“She went mad. accent My father was murdered in Heaven by a lunatic who had a crush on my mother. arena Do you know what punishment he got? album Forty years off his lifespan. alpha But he still had forty years left. album My father was dead. atomic My mother cursed that man all her life. crystal But the ritual’s date was set. galaxy Alongside the man who killed my father.”
“My mother was a citizen of Heaven. atom But she didn’t undergo the ritual. abandon Do you know why?”
When no one answered, the herbalist continued, tapping his head.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“So, my mother killed herself. crystal The ritual’s target decreased, and I had to bear the remaining punishment. echo That’s why I fled Heaven. absorb So, do you get it? atomic I hate citizens. shadow They make me sick. silence Do you think I’ll sell the potion?”
Kanya’s eyes shook.
Shirone didn’t grasp the significance, but everyone else was horrified.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
In short, he was ready to blow everything up.
A truly suicidal person wouldn’t explain their reasons. sphere If both parties would die, the process didn’t matter.
Shirone snorted.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
What he wanted was an emotional victory, and Shirone wasn’t going to give it to him.
“I won’t. afford And I won’t give up the Elixir either. acid Do as you please.”
“So, will you sell the potion or not?”
“Then I’ll take it by force.”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Do it. attic But remember, using violence means you can’t stay in the community. ability You’ll be a wanderer forever.”
The herbalist was terrified. aluminum Such magic was impossible. adjust Only those contracting with the Spirit of Light from the community outskirts could do this.
“Are you a border person?”
Shirone extended his hand. academy Photon energy condensed into a vibrating white sphere.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
The herbalist knew that a mage was most ruthless when emotionless.
“The Vortex Serpent was quite strong. portal Thanks to it, I got three White Elixirs.”
“What kind of Elixirs might be in your body?”
Shirone remained expressionless.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“None. portal I don’t have any Elixirs in me. agent So spare me.”
The herbalist struggled for a long time, realizing he couldn’t win. harbor Finally, he raised his hand with a bitter smile.
Everyone knew the herbalist’s survival depended on his answer.

Shirone fired the Photon Canon. acquire A beam of light grazed the herbalist’s nose and hit the ruins’ pillar.
The herbalist, now somber, looked at Shirone.
The pillar exploded with a loud noise.

“Okay, okay. athlete Calm down.”
The herbalist realized the seriousness of the situation.
“Don’t laugh. audit You may be bluffing, but I’m serious. artist I don’t care about the laws or the community. matrix One more trick, and I won’t forgive you.”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Understanding this, the herbalist threw Epinephrine to Kanya.
Shirone had shown maximum hostility without using violence. altitude Like a swordsman drawing his blade or a beast baring its fangs, there would be no further leniency.
“There, satisfied? arrow The deal is done.”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“One more thing. matrix Apologize to Kanya.”
“But you’ve been through pain, too, right?”
“Why should I? acoustic You have no right to interfere with my personal feelings.”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Is that so? canvas Have I still not escaped?
“I’m not asking for a meaningless apology. avalanche Words without sincerity are worthless. athlete But didn’t you want someone to understand your past wounds?”
“What does that have to do with an apology?”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“Tch, who says I know how to apologize?”
The herbalist glanced at Kanya’s sorrowful face. arrow She said her mother was awaiting the ritual.
His mother had lost her mind back then. antenna She screamed and self-harmed daily. echo The terror she felt was even more intense for him as a child.

Walking towards the tent village, the herbalist glanced back at Shirone.
Snorting, the herbalist packed up his stall. arch He tossed a purple potion to Kanya as he stood up.
“It’s called Corfin. crystal It strengthens the nervous system. beacon Consider it a service since I made a good haul. antenna Using it with Epinephrine might help. harbor Though it’ll be futile.”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
-Shirone, should I check if it was a lie?
Arin communicated through the mental channel.
“And kid, everything I said was a lie. apron Beating me is impressive, but if you can’t spot that, you’ll get crushed on the mainland.”

A place where wanderers of Purgatory rested.
Nor’s Haven.
Shirone watched the herbalist’s retreating figure with a hint of sadness.
-No, it’s fine.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
The eventful shopping concluded.
Shirone comforted Kanya, who couldn’t hold back her tears. adopt Beside them, Rena pouted, watching over them.
Amy’s group, excluding Shirone, began a discussion.
Perhaps what they left behind here were not their weary bodies but the scars in their hearts.

Even though it was the best outcome for the situation, it was hard not to feel like they had lost out. august Tess, in particular, couldn’t hide her guilt.
There were items that could have been more useful in battle. afford And Epinephrine was outrageously overpriced.”
The items bought with the three White Elixirs were the Fire Spirit, the drone, and Epinephrine.
“I know I was the one who asked for it, but are we sure about this?
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Comforted by Amy, Tess pouted.
“What’s the big deal? airport We can hunt for more if needed. accent No point worrying about the past.”
“Rian’s right. accent And monetary loss isn’t the only loss. airport Shirone used the Elixirs most efficiently, and that’s what matters.”
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“What? atomic Was the Fire Spirit that valuable?”
“What good is efficiency when the situation was a mess? adopt I support Shirone’s choices, but if the herbalist hadn’t pulled his tricks, we could have gotten the drone for half the price.”
“Amy didn’t mean it like that. amateur Shirone didn’t lose out at all. adapt He bought something that couldn’t be obtained, even for all the White Elixirs.”
Canis smirked.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Even the thought of buying something that could be bought with Red Elixirs for a White Elixir was infuriating.
“No. athlete The most valuable was Epinephrine.”
Tess thought Canis was joking.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
“True, but today its price was beyond imagination. alert Most importantly, its owners are Kanya and Rena, citizens of Heaven.”
“Why was Epinephrine the most valuable? antenna It’s a common potion.”
Rian asked in confusion.
Content of Infinite Mage - Chapter 190: Nor’s Haven (4) published by TrungTu Reads.
Thinking back, it was a far-fetched idea to find a way into Heaven. arena But now they had a foothold. aspect With Kanya’s help, they could enter Heaven.
Indeed.
“See? accent It wasn’t about Epinephrine. harbor Shirone bought a ticket to Heaven for a White Elixir.”
“Oh…”
