After finally explaining the summoning rules of the Destiny Card to Romand, Antitina, and the others, and indicating that I currently don't have the ability to summon Medisha, a part of Brando's Travel Mage identity was naturally also exposed. Fortunately, the sharp-minded noble daughter hasn't yet suspected the Rubis Mercenaries. After all, that would be too unbelievable.

But Brando wasn't actually worried they would find out the truth, for a very simple reason: Antitina currently relies only on him. And he believed he had the capability to earn her trust.

Of course, that was also an understatement. Brando thought to himself that if he couldn't fool a little girl despite knowing a hundred years into the past and five hundred years into the future in this world, then his past reputation as a hardcore gamer would be for naught.

He put away the Unicorn Knight card and then instructed two mercenaries to scout in the direction of the temple. Meanwhile, several mercenaries had already delivered the spoils of war to him. As a Ghost Knight, Medisha had only left behind two items: a pair of boots and a crystal.

When Brando saw the crystal, he almost thought he was seeing things, but he rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't dreaming. No, he must be dreaming. Otherwise, how could he, who had the nickname of the King of Black Hands in the game, continuously encounter such good fortune?

Just like the last time when he didn't obtain the Heart of the Tree from the Golden Tree BOSS, he wasn't surprised at all, because it was normal, based on his usual RP. If he got anything good, it must have been an illusion.

But after triple-checking, he had to admit that the Rubis Mercenary crossbowman indeed held the Ghost Knight Crystal in his hand.

Ghost Knight Crystal, [Enhancement Item, Arm], increases output strength by +10% after equipping.

Brando pinched Romand's face, making the latter instantly raise her brows in protest: "W-what are you doing, Brando!" Though she knew such a mild protest wouldn't matter to Brando, this time he really hurt her.

So the merchant miss couldn't help but loudly complain.

"No, I was just confirming if I was dreaming." Brando answered as if sleepwalking.

"Pinch yourself, you jerk!" Romand raised her round-toed boots in anger and kicked him.

This time Brando knew he wasn't dreaming, because it hurt.

"Ouch——!"

"Serves you right."

"Romand, no more wearing boots next time."

"Not a chance!"

Antitina looked at the two, who suddenly seemed like children, and couldn't help but shake her head. She saw the mercenaries all snickering, knowing that their Lord must be in an exceptionally good mood to act like this. But she glanced at the crystal and thought, is this thing really that important?

"This is the Ghost Knight Crystal, right?"

Thinking this, she couldn't help but voice her question. Not just her, the others weren't fools either, especially Hu Que; they all waited for Brando to explain the purpose of this crystal.

In their minds, Brando's extensive knowledge was already common sense and no longer surprising.

Hearing the noble daughter's question, Brando paused. He nodded and replied, "Yes, this is the Ghost Knight Crystal." Then he couldn't help but smile, "It seems my prophecy has come true. We're definitely going on a day trip to Ambeser."

Compared to the crystal's intrinsic value, the mercenaries were clearly more excited about hearing that. They didn't understand what "prophecy come true" meant, but a day trip to Ambeser was easy to grasp. Hearing this, they couldn't help but cheer in unison.

Though it was a summoned creature, it still had its own memory and emotions.

However, Antitina didn't care about this. As the largest free port in Erune, she had visited Ambeser once when she was very young, accompanied by her father. Other than its bustling nature, it left no deep impression, but recalling her irresponsible father, she deliberately avoided the thought and asked, "Is this crystal really that important?"

"Of course." Brando answered with an indisputable tone. In 'Amber Sword', as an item from early versions, it could still sell for three hundred million Thor in late-game. Even converted to RMB, it would be worth three to four thousand.
