Sam was tall and straight, his posture impeccable, his deep and refined appearance accentuated by a pair of sharp eyes like those of a falcon. His hair, black as obsidian, shimmered, highlighting the noble and pure Bloodline flowing through his veins.

The Cape family was not merely a Wizard Family but also possessed a high-class bloodline, capable of advancing to Legendary on the Knight Path.

"I've heard that the Six Rings Tower has welcomed a batch of newcomers, but I never had the chance to visit. It's unexpected that Mr. Karl arrived first," he said.

"Sit!" he greeted warmly. "Please, take a seat."

In the eyes of the locals, the Six Rings Tower was merely a force with some heritage, having had a Second Circle Wizard in their ranks. But it surely couldn't compare with the major forces that controlled the market.

However, the top Wizard Families were well aware of the terrifying existence backing this Six Rings Tower.

Indeed, for hundreds of years, the reason the Magic Forest had not achieved true unification was because of the interference from various major forces of the Kaliem Continent.

"You're too kind," Carl said as he sat down, placing a book on the table. "I have a Wizard inheritance I wish to sell; I'd appreciate it if Young Master Sam could evaluate it for me."

"Just call me Sam," Sam replied with a modest wave of his hand. "I'm quite eager to see an inheritance from the Six Rings Tower."

"No!" Carl shook his head, explaining, "This inheritance was acquired from someone else, not from the Six Rings Tower, and its Tier isn't high."

"OH!" Upon hearing this, the excitement in Sam's eyes instantly faded, but business was still business. "That's alright."

"Collecting various witchcraft inheritances is something every family does, but if the inheritance in Mr. Karl's hands is one we've already collected, it would be difficult to sell at a good price," Sam said.

"I understand," Carl nodded.

Before long, Sam put down the book in his hands with a look of regret.

"A rather common Wizard inheritance, belonging to the Natural School's Earth series, but at least it's explained clearly," he said after a moment's contemplation. "For an exclusive ten-year deal, I can offer three hundred and sixty Magic Stones."

An exclusive ten-year deal meant one couldn't sell this inheritance to anyone else within ten years, although teaching disciples didn't count. After ten years, it was fair game. As for signing a Wizard contract to fully secure the deal, that was a special arrangement reserved for more unique witchcraft or high-Tier inheritances.

In reality, with an inheritance of this Tier, it wasn't necessary for it to go through him; someone downstairs could have handled it.

Three hundred and sixty Magic Stones?

Carl's eyes lit up. This price was even higher than he had inquired, probably due to the influence of the Six Rings Tower. An inheritance purchased for just dozens of Magic Stones now sold for over three hundred—a profit of several times the cost, on top of the increase in knowledge reserves. This transaction was well worth it!

"Deal!"

After shaking hands with the other party, Carl didn't rush to take the Magic Stones and leave. Instead, he spoke again, "Besides this witchcraft inheritance, I have another business proposition for you, Sam, a long-term one."

"OH?" Sam sat up straight. "Let's hear it."

"The flesh of Legendary Creatures," Carl said. "I wish to purchase some flesh and blood of Legendary Creatures from the Cape family on a regular and fixed basis."

"However... the meat I want needs to be pre-processed, following the method described on this paper."

Saying so, he took out a piece of paper full of text and handed it over.

Sam's interest was piqued.

As a family that controlled a marketplace, hunting Magic and Legendary Creatures was a common affair. And business related to this aspect had always been ongoing.

Knights would consume the flesh to train their bodies, and Bloodline Wizards would pay high prices for the meat of Legendary Creatures.

But specifically processed meat? That was unheard of.

After reading the paper, Sam grew solemn. "Mr. Karl, the method you've listed here, seems to involve crafting the flesh of other species into a medicine to aid Knight training, isn't it?"

"Something like that," Carl nodded. "Can you do it?"

"Yes! Of course, we can!" As a proficient businessman, Sam had a keen insight into the value of the items at his disposal.

This was a formula that, in some respects, could overturn the existing Potions for Knight training.

It was a pity!

The formula in his possession was not complete; the key steps still firmly in Carl's hands.

No wonder it was only called pre-processing—it had to go through Carl before the flesh could become a complete product.

A business opportunity! This was a brand-new business opportunity!

Sam clenched the paper in his hands, his heart beating faster involuntarily.

"Sam!"

Today, Allen was radiant; he had changed into a splendid Wizard Robe, wielding an Advanced Magic Wand. His black hair lay smoothly against his forehead, evidently carefully groomed.

"Allen." Sam strode over with a smile, a hint of barely perceptible disdain flickering in his eyes. "Are you really going to open a Potion shop here?"

Today was the grand opening of Allen's little shop, and as his brother, Sam was invited to attend. In truth, he only found out about his brother's plan to open a Potion shop the day before yesterday, and moreover, about its location. Opposite was Wizard Archie's Potion shop.

"Of course!" Allen raised an eyebrow. "I know what you're worried about. Wizard Archie from the Six Rings Tower will leave the Magic Forest before long. The new Wizard Apprentices don't know how to run a Potion shop; my opening here is perfect to usurp his business."

"All of you fear the Six Rings Tower, but I don't!"

Sam shook his head slightly.

He had never liked his own brother—spoiled, arrogant, ignorant, with unremarkable talent. Although the two shared the same father, they did not share the same mother, and their relationship was anything but close.
