Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Steve nearly vomited blood in his depression, having fallen from a haughty leader to a lowly prisoner, from an influential noble to a so-called lunatic. His eyes were red with fury, his breathing rapid as he stared unblinkingly at Yang Ling.

“Hehe, insolent lunatic!” Yang Ling thought. Seeing Steve clenching his fists and growing more and more hostile, Yang Ling let out a cold smile as he recalled how arrogant he had been in the past. He then silently recited the Wizard Mantra for the Soul Tampering Technique before shooting out an invisible bolt of a mental attack.

Having advanced to the level of Heaven Wizard, he had begun to come into contact with powers used to control souls. He was able to erase the memories of a tarantula with his beginner-level Soul Tampering Technique, and naturally, he would be able to launch a surprise attack on Steve, whose mental state was already at a point of breakdown.

But Yang Ling did not put too much power into his attack due to the fact that Steve was part of the Waize family. Invading Steve’s soul and making him lose his sanity and memory for a period of time was enough to make Steve have a taste of his own medicine!

“Ah...” Just as Steve lost control and was about to charge toward Yang Ling, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head and fell, rolling on the ground. His head seemed ready to split open from the pain, it was as if he had been stabbed by an invisible dagger.

“Young Master, Young Master... Are you alright?” Christian was at a loss for what to do when he saw Steve rolling on the ground like a lunatic. He did not know what was going on. He was merely a servant to Steve, and even though he did have a certain level of competency when it came to acting as a butler and merchant, he did not know any Battle Energy or Magical Energy and did not discover Yang Ling’s attack.

In his anxiety, he acted together with the other servants and prepared to pin Steve down. Unexpectedly, their young master still had immense strength despite his pain, causing Christian and the rest to fail time and time again.

Steve was still rolling on the ground as if his head had been injured. Christian reacted quickly after his efforts to pin him down failed. He knelt in front of Yang Ling and begged, “Sir, please save our pitiful young master, sir...”

“Sigh, ever since he was scorned after dating the young lady Maryse for a period of time, Steve’s mental state has not been the best and mutters to himself from time to time. Coupled with the trauma he suffered at the hands of the Rossi people, and the near extermination of the Black Armor Guards he brought along with him, his condition has taken a turn for the worse and he has done some unimaginable things, just like a lunatic would. To think that his condition would act up here!”

After personally propping up the helpless Christian, Yang Ling ordered Orlando to take action. Orlando led a team of ferocious Bullmen soldiers to the room and they pinned Steve down against the ground in the blink of an eye before tying him up tightly with Rolan Vines.

“Release me, I am the emperor, who dares tie me up? Guards...” Steve struggled as he shouted at the top of his lungs, his words nonsensical.

“Emperor?” Christian had been a little suspicious of Yang Ling’s explanation at the start, but he no longer had any doubts now that he heard Steve say this. Christian was overcome with worry, while Yang Ling almost broke out in laughter. To think that a person like Steve had once dreamt of being the emperor!

“Hehe, Gulina, don’t think that I cannot recognize you just because you changed your clothes!” Steve said lecherously as he looked at a female servant in a long dress standing nearby. “I truly miss the few days where we secretly went crazy in the palace together when the emperor left the capital last year. I will remember your large perky butt even if you change your entire face, much less just your clothes!”

“Gulina? Large perky butt in the palace?” Christian broke out into a cold sweat when he heard Steve say this. Yang Ling did not know who Gulina was, but to Christian, it was clear that she was a concubine that the emperor had selected last year.

Gulina was sexy and alluring and was a concubine deeply adored by the emperor. How bad would it be if the emperor found out about the adultery between Steve and Gulina? The entire Waize family might be brought down together with Steve!

In his alarm, in order to prevent Steve from exposing more of his scandals, Christian hastily ripped the scarf from his neck and stuffed it into Steve’s large mouth. At this point in time, he was convinced that the young master had broken down and turned into a true lunatic.

After calming himself down, in order to prevent Steve’s scandals from spreading to the Banto Empire, Christian pleaded with Yang Ling to hide any information about what had happened today, promising to repay him with a lavish reward sometime later. After getting Yang Ling’s promise, he left in a hurry with the rest of the servants, setting off back to the faraway Banto Empire.

“Tsk tsk, so powerful, yet not even letting the woman of the emperor off the hook. To think that Steve could do something like this!” Yang Ling left quickly, shaking his head. The conditions for the setting up of a Hunter Association was getting more and more ripe, but there were still some details he needed to sort out. He needed a large number of Magic Hunting Cards, as well as a more concise concept for the organizational structure and operational model of the Hunter Association.

While Yang Ling was deep in deliberation in his castle, a commotion was sweeping over the faraway city of Bavaria!

“Curtis, let’s go, let’s go quickly!” A scrawny Magical Apprentice had just sat down to do his meditation in a dilapidated Magical Tower when a plump man of a similar age kicked open the door, charging toward him like the wind, speaking as he dragged the young man, Curtis, behind him.

“Bloom, we have not put enough time into meditation today. We will be scolded by the teacher if we go outside. Don’t come to pester me!” Curtis said as he struggled with effort. If he could not advance to the level of beginner-level Spellcaster by the next year, he was going to be forced back to the faraway Lavernia Mountain Range by his tutor. He was not willing to give up this rare time for meditation.

After hitting Curtis on the head, the plump Bloom ran outside, saying, “Curtis, magical staffs, two thousand crystal coins for a magical staff, forget it if you don’t want it!”

“Magical staff? Two thousand crystal coins for a magical staff?” Curtis chased Bloom after recovering from his shock. “Bloom, where did you find a magical staff that costs only two thousand crystal coins? Also, I don’t even have two thousand crystal coins, what do I do?”

In Bavaria, even a terribly poor-quality magical staff that had been broken in half would cost at least several thousand Purple Crystal Coins. Curtis had only saved up a pitiful few hundred crystal coins even after helping his mentor with his chores for many years. He could not even afford a Magical Beast Essence Crystal of above-average quality, so forget about a magical staff. But he could not help but feel excited after suddenly hearing the news about being able to buy a magical staff for only two thousand crystal coins.

“What’s there to worry about? The Boulade Merchant Association has stepped forward and guaranteed that you will be able to purchase a magical staff even if you have no money. You can then head to the Magical Beast Territory and work there for a few years to pay off the rest of the crystal coins. Run faster if you want it, I am not waiting for you!” The plump Bloom said as he charged forward, clenching the few hundred crystal coins he had earned over the years tightly in his hand.

Bloom had unintentionally heard this incredible piece of news while he was walking around the streets in the morning. The magical staffs might be snatched up by someone else if he did not run fast. Just like that, the two Magical Apprentices ran with all their might, heading straight toward the Royal Auction House near the Magical Tower.

...

At the same time, a similar scene took place within a lavish mansion.

“Father, quick, quick, give me three hundred thousand, no, five hundred thousand Purple Crystal Coins!” the pale teenager said as he kicked open the door of his father’s study, disregarding any attempts by the servants to stop him. He likewise disregarded the screaming naked servant inside the room who was hastily covering her private parts.

After pulling over the clothes that have fallen to the side of the bed to cover his lower body, the white-haired middle-aged man was enraged when he saw the bum that was his eldest son, “Scram, get out. You spent eight hundred crystal coins on women and trouble. You are the disgrace of the Steven family!”

“No, Father, I am going to buy a Dragon Bone Magical Staff with the money. It’s a Dragon Bone Magical Staff, Father, quick, it’s going to be auctioned off if we are slow!” The young man was impatient, wishing that he could run over and make off with the key to the secret lair hidden in his father’s clothing.

“What Dragon Bone Magical Staff?”

After realizing what was going on and accepting that the young man was not lying, the middle-aged man, draped only in blankets, forgot about his dignity and opened the door to the secret lair within the study, allowing his son to retrieve the crystal coins inside. He then put on his clothes and ordered the servants to prepare a carriage to bring them to the Royal Auction Hall at the heart of the city in a hurry.

Even a high-grade magical staff was hard to come by, much less a fabled Dragon Bone Magical Staff. As a minister in the Magic Association, the middle-aged man naturally understood how rare the Dragon Bone Magical Staff was. He would not miss it even if it cost eight hundred thousand Purple Crystal Coins, much less than five hundred thousand!

...

With the support from the Boulade Merchant Association, and the immense help provided by the Association of Darkness, the magical staffs that Goode had brought along to Bavaria caused an unprecedented uproar in the market. After the news had spread, the area around the Royal Auction House became packed with people in under an hour!

Two thousand Purple Crystal Coins for a Magical Staff. The superior quality and low price of the staff exceeded the imagination of the people. It defied what people knew about magical staffs!

The fabled Dragon Bone Magical Staff had been personally appraised by the Spellcasters from the royal family, and had caused an unprecedented commotion within the noble community! Even the great nobles had come forward when they heard the news. Some even rushed to Bavaria from abroad using a Magical Teleportation Formation.

Magical Apprentices and low-level Spellcasters rushed in a frenzy toward the Royal Auction Hall, while the large merchant associations with great networks of information also acted quickly, entering the auction hall through their various connections. Many of the others only had eyes on the hundred-odd magical staffs, while the merchant teams chose to directly contact Goode, hoping to quickly enter the resource-rich Magical Beast Territory.
