Chapter 57
Rezen’s eyes glowed with a red light for a moment as his fire-type mystic gem flew out of his elixir field
“Can I burn your mage robe?” He asks in a serious tone. He is happy for his friend’s fortune but this is just too annoying!
Day and night, asleep or not, this bastard is always wearing his uniform! Not to mention, his face also has that dumb giddy expression as if the girl she likes just confessed to him
This is just too much!
As if he heard the voice of the devil, Neil hugged himself, acting like he was protecting his mage robe using his body
“Rezen, don’t you dare! You already have a mysterious master, don’t tell me you are still jealous of my mage robe?” Neil said fearfully
Rezen has used the bullshit of having a mysterious master for his spirit plants and cultivation progress
After all, his talent is still at the level of shit. Won’t others, especially Neil that is aware of his talent think it was weird how he can advance his cultivation rank this fast?
“Can’t you at least change into a new set of clothes? Do you even wash that?” Rezen asks doubtfully and Neil hit his chest with his fist
“This robe is my pride! I want to wear it as much as possible and don’t worry, I have seven sets! One for every day of the week! My robe can even endure spells at the 1st fusion rank!”
Since Neil just started cultivating, although his cultivation rank can be expedited using spirit plants, his comprehension has to catch up first
Neil has uncommon grade talent and it seems like his comprehension is also only at that level. In other words, he was pretty mediocre
“I’m really irritated. Please let me burn you… I mean, your robe” Rezen insisted while stretching out his hand and the fireballs followed up
“Rezen you asshole! And here I was, planning to give you a gift! You’re heartless!”
“A gift?”
“Yes, a gift! Haven’t you asked us to watch out if a special and rare spirit plant seeds appeared?”
Seeds! The more the better!
In the past, Rezen only chose one type of spirit plant for every ‘department’ since he don’t have time to eat all of them. But since he has his golden blender now, things are different! He could consume as many spirit plants as he could!
“What seed? Show it to me!”
Neil took out a small box from his pocket and he handed it to Rezen
When Rezen opened the box, instead of a seed, what he saw was a mushroom with a pink tip and whitish stem
He blinked his eyes… doesn’t this look like…
“Cough cough” Rezen coughed awkwardly to clear the dirty thoughts in his mind
“This is your gift?” Rezen said while picking up the mushroom with only two fingers as if he was disgusted
It can’t be helped, this mushroom really gave him the impression of…
“What’s with that look? I am telling you, that mushroom is special! That’s a seed of Mushroom Home! Once you planted and let it absorb mana, it would grow into a house-like mushroom! That’s a quality 3 seed and it can withstand several attacks of spells at the 3rd fusion rank before crumbling! We only got that as a bribe in exchange for your spirit plants!”
Rezen felt like his friend’s family have changed in a short span of time. To think that these normal and a bit upright people would accept bribes…
But wait… isn’t this a good thing?
Rezen is still trying to think whether he should hire people to buy the land around his farm from the government and build a dormitory on it for his current and future subordinates
This is like pie falling from the skies!
“You really are my friend!” Rezen said happily and he even gave Neil a hundred mana stones that the latter stored in his void storage
The commission that Neil’s family received was quite high and now, they also managed to buy a void storage ring!
After all, that stuff is a must-have for mages. Since Neil is enrolled for free in a Magic Academy, his family won’t hold back in supporting him
“Hehehehe” Neil merely smiled sheepishly as he shamelessly accepted the mana stones
The first time receiving money, a person would be shy and might not even accept it. But after a few more times, they would feel nothing about it
“Come, come, I’ll give you ten more mana stones if you help me buy some stuff!”
Rezen is a bit stingy now but since he received good stuff, what is a hundred or so mana stones?
Rezen had Neil give his phone to him after much effort causing him to think that his friend has a stash of porn on his phone
“Here, buy all these” Rezen said as he gave Neil his phone back
The man looked at the list on his phone and he smiled teasingly at his friend
“My, my, I didn’t know that you have a girlfriend now. Who is the unlucky girl?” Neil asks while hitting Rezen with his elbow
Rezen planned on buying female clothes for his subordinates and letting the ones that want to wear them, wear them
Since he was ‘shy’ to do that personally, he gave that task to his friend
“Stop your nonsense, that’s for my subordinates!” Rezen simply said. Even if he wants to make his subordinates his girlfriend… that would be impossible! They are genderless, okay?
“Subordinate meh… are you planning a cosplay play with Zero? You’re kinky!” Neil continued his teasing, even involving the silent Zero on the side
“Just buy those things” Rezen replied irritatedly before walking out with Zero to go to the mall
As for Neil, he has his own car, use it!
When Rezen entered the mall, he can’t help but raise his guard. This is the mall where he was abducted by the artificial humans and he has some trauma
It’s just that, this mall is the biggest mall in the city. It has more things and Rezen planned on continuing the shopping spree that he failed to do a bit more than a week ago
Rezen entered the men’s clothing store with Zero
The women’s clothes were Neil’s responsibility as for the male ones, although Rezen will have his subordinates wear them if he wants to, why can’t he also wear them, right?
Since that’s the case then he might as well buy clothes that are to his liking!
“Choose whatever you want, I would buy all of them for you!” Rezen said generously. He dreamed of saying that generous and domineering line to his girlfriend but since he doesn’t have one, Zero will do for now as long as it would satisfy his vanity
Rezen is poor by the standards of mages after all the spending but by the standards of normal people, he was still rich!
After all, a single mana stone is equivalent to a thousand credits! Rezen still has a few hundred thousand mana stones and that is millions in credits!
Since this clothing shop only has ordinary clothes, they don’t cost hundreds or thousands of mana stones
“Master, I can wear anything” Zero replied as if he really doesn’t care what clothes he would wear
Rezen can’t help but pat this subordinate on the head
“Good boy but I’m serious. Go choose anything you want, the more the better! Even if you don’t like them, you can still give them to your siblings!”
With that, Zero has no choice but to nod his head and that is when one of the attendants approached them
“Sir, are you here for couple shirts with your boyfriend?” The female attendant asked and Rezen almost threw a fireball at her face
The hell?! What is wrong with people? Why are they always assuming that Zero is his boyfriend?
Just because they live in the same house, eat the same thing, do the same thing (hunting magic beast), and Rezen wants to buy clothes for Zero, that doesn’t mean that they are together!
They have a pure and innocent master-subordinate relationship, alright? Please stop sullying it!
“He’s not my boyfriend”
“He is my Master”
The two said at the same time and the female attendant blushed crazily
Rezen doesn’t know why but he can feel the gears in this woman’s brain churning as if she was creating a whole ass scenario in her head
It even feels like the attendant would have a nose bleed any time from now!
“E-ehem, it’s okay, Miss, we can choose on our own” Rezen politely said but he was still shooing this attendant away lest her nose really bled and people might think that it was his doing
“Certainly, sir, I apologize” the attendant replied and she lightly bowed her head before returning to where she was before
Rezen heaved a sigh of relief as he started choosing the clothes he wanted to wear
In the past, he was from a middle-class family and he can’t buy too many clothes or expensive clothes at once but now, things have changed
