night.
A luxurious room at Tuna Inn.
Rosen looked 'shocked' and 'confused': "I don't know either."
"Humph~ Still trying to argue!"
Belkan laughed coldly and pointed his staff at Adam.
"disperse!"
A little bit of water light rushed into Adam's body, and then nothing happened. There was no change in Adam's body.
The big black eyes of this beautiful little boy blinked like stars in the night sky, and his innocent look made him look more like a docile deer in the forest.
Darlett's heart almost melted as he watched. He felt as if weeds were growing in his chest, forcing him to lean towards Rosen involuntarily.
"Belkan, there is no change, which means there is no Transfiguration. Are you mistaken?"
After all, he also knows some common sense about magic.
Belkan was also a little confused, but still insisted: "The Eye of Quillin has never made any mistakes. There must be a shapeshifting force nearby."
He didn't believe it and raised his staff towards Rosen.
'disperse!'
Rosen is still the young man with a simple and honest face.
'disperse!'
He turned back to Adam and did it again.
Naturally, there is still no change.
After a series of failures, the white-haired wizard's eyes became obviously unsteady.
"Sir, no matter what, there is definitely a problem. To be cautious, I think we should terminate this transaction."
This is of course true. Although Dalet was reluctant, he decided to follow Belkan's advice.
But before he could finish his words, Rosen suddenly raised his hand and patted his head, with a look of sudden realization on his face.
"I think I know why."
He explained, "Adam once studied magic with a wandering wizard for half a year. The wandering wizard said that Adam sensed the existence of the magic circle in just one week and had an outstanding talent for magic. We had planned to let him continue studying."
"But Olivia, Adam's mother, suddenly fell ill, and the plan had to be terminated."
Then he looked at Adam and said, "Kid, show us your learning results. For example, make a hand sign or something like that."
Adam nodded, raised his hand, and quickly made a hand seal to assist in casting a normal Transfiguration spell. As this hand seal was released, Belkan's detection crystal visibly lit up again.
Rosen sighed deeply: "The wandering wizard said that Adam has successfully obtained quite a lot of magic power. As long as he masters the correct method, he can successfully cast spells. What a pity~~"
"So, the magician's things glowed just now. Maybe it was because the child was naughty and played a few failed spells."
This explanation is very reasonable, and the transformation hand seals demonstrated by Adam are both standard and swift, and it is obvious that they are the result of long-term practice.
Belkan was mostly convinced, but out of caution, he raised his staff again, gently placed it on Adam's shoulder, closed his eyes and carefully sensed the magic power in his body.
Rosen laughed inwardly: "Look, look, everything you see is specially made for you to see."
These details were added quietly by him, without even Selena knowing, but they were the key to success or failure.
After a long while, Belkan shrugged his shoulders and said, "The little guy's magic power has indeed been well-established, and his strength is close to the first ring. How old is he this year?"
"It will be 10 years old after the Feast of Winter Veil."
Belkan sighed: "Not even ten years old yet."
This is much better than he was back then.
After saying that, he turned to look at Dalet and whispered in his mind: "This little thing is a genius in magic. If he can get a good education, he will have great potential for growth."
Dalet became more and more excited.
Before, he treated Adam as a beautiful pet, but now, he had a new idea, which was to train him into a family magician.
So he got to the point: "Mr. Robin, does your wife agree?"
Rosen also became serious. He straightened his back and a hint of nervousness appeared on his face again.
"My wife agreed, but she said that Adam is her treasure and 300 Ogg is too little. She needs at least 2,000 Ogg."
Darlett's face darkened and he tapped the table with his fingers: "Mr. Robin, this price is too high."
This is simply blackmail! If it weren't for the fact that the little thing has a talent for magic, he would definitely turn hostile.
Rosen rubbed his hands nervously, not daring to look Darlett in the eye, but looking down at his feet.
"Sir, I also think it's too high. But Olivia said she's not stupid, she knows the dirty thoughts of you rich people."
"She wants a high price so that you can cherish Adam. If one day you get tired of him, at least you won't easily abandon him because of the high price today."
After saying that, Rosen quickly added: "I don't think this is reliable, but Olivia insisted that I say this, and I... I don't know what to do. Alas~~~~"
He lowered his head deeply and held his head tightly with his hands, looking like a failed man who was at a loss and had no opinion of his own.
On the other hand, Belkan was touched because he was also a child sold by his parents.
So, he looked at Darlett and whispered in his mind, "Sir, 2,000 Oggs is not a bad deal to buy a little boy with excellent magic talent."
These words immediately moved Dalet.
2000 Ogg is a huge sum of money, but it can be taken out if you grit your teeth.
If this money can really bring a loyal and outstanding talent to the family, it will be worth it.
But the other party was a commoner, and it was easy to bully him at first glance, so he looked at Dalet and signaled with his eyes, meaning, can you use some dirty tricks? For example, use magic to stun the boy's parents and let them take the initiative to say a low price, or simply don't pay and give the child to him directly.
Belkan whispered back, "Sir, if you plan to train this little boy and use him in the future, you'd better not play with his parents."
"Clearing the money and goods is the most trouble-free method."
That's true.
Dalet nodded and turned to look at Rosen: "Okay, then 2000 Ogg. Sign the contract."
Rosen looked up in shock: "Sir, you are so generous."
Darlett shrugged. "Yes, I am generous."
But he was not happy because it meant he could not play with the little boy as much as he wanted because it would destroy his loyalty.
But then again, we can still get closer to each other on weekdays.
Thinking of this, he felt much better, so he got up and walked into the bedroom. After a while, he took out a deposit slip and a contract from the bedroom.
"This is a deposit slip from the Dawn Bank. It has an inimitable magic mark printed on it. One is for 500 Oggs. There are four in total, which is exactly 2,000 Oggs. Please take a close look."
Rosen took the deposit slip with trembling hands, and after checking it carefully, he nodded with gratitude: "I recognize the deposit slip from Chenxi Bank, it is indeed real."
"Very good, now sign the contract."
Rosen immediately picked up a pen and wrote his and his wife's name on the contract, one was Robin and the other was Olivia.
"Now, leave your child behind and use the money to treat your wife's illness."
Rosen placed the deposit slip on his chest with great care and bowed deeply to Darlett: "Thank you very much for your kindness, sir."
Then he turned to look at Adam: "Child, follow this uncle from now on and listen to him carefully, understand?"
Adam nodded 'obediently' and bowed deeply to Darlett.
Darlett's heart melted, and he hurried forward to support him. He then looked at Adam's pretty face greedily and praised him endlessly.
"Good, good, good~ That's great~"
Suddenly I felt strange again: "Robin, why is Adam silent?"
Rosen explained with an embarrassed look on his face, pointing to his throat: "Adam has not been able to speak since he was a child, but don't worry, he is very smart, smarter than most children, I promise!"
Darlett believed this, because as soon as he saw Adam's big, bright, black eyes, he knew that this child could not be stupid.
'Can't speak. Hehe, that's even better.'
"That's it, then."
Rosen bowed to Darlet again, then turned and left the VIP guest room.
In the living room, he walked slowly, but once he left the room and closed the door, he immediately quickened his pace and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
In the VIP guest room, Darlett looked at the well-behaved and cute little boy, and felt itchy in his heart, as if a kitten was scratching his heart with its soft little claws.
He tried to hold it back, and then held it back again, but finally couldn't hold it back anymore.
"No, I have to have some fun with it."
So, he turned to look at his magic advisor and said, "Belkan, I want to be intimate with the little guy."
Belkan shrugged. "Sir, although I don't agree with you doing this, you are the one who spends the money, so I can only advise you to keep a good balance."
"Haha~ I will."
Darlett waved to Adam: "Come~ Follow uncle into the room."
Adam followed obediently.
The two entered the bedroom.
About five minutes later, Darlett walked out of the bedroom refreshed.
Belkan saw this and smiled faintly: "Sir, it seems that you are very satisfied."
Darlett smiled and said, "Yes, I am very satisfied. This money is really worth it."
After a pause, a hint of hesitation appeared on his face: "But for some reason, I think this little boy is a little strange."
"It's not that he's a bad boy, but he's just a little different from the little boys I met before."
Belkan was stunned: "What's the difference?"
"Hmm~ I can't say it's very good. It seems to smell a little different. It was okay at first, but after sweating, it seems a little bit smelly. It seems to be the smell of sheep."
Belkan was stunned: "Maybe the parents neglected to take care of him, etc. That's not right!"
"I need to check it carefully!"
The white-haired wizard seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly became very solemn.
