Will of chaos

When I took the list from Eleanor's hand and started looking through it, I was surprised by the sheer number of things on the list.

There were paintings, furniture, cutlery, swords, and ceremonial armor that only had one appearance, books of all kinds both original and copies, maps, various types of normal and rare metals, slaves, etc.

It had many different types of stuff, and the prices on the sides seemed low, at least for items I knew the value of like metals.

But what caught my attention were the large amounts of sea monster blood, all of the Lower Catastrophe Grade at least, one of them was written as unidentified, in fact, there were several items that were marked "unidentified" in their descriptions.

I went through the entire list which took about twenty minutes before sending all this information to Kira who is next to Nira to see if she wants anything.

After that I pass the reading crystal for Karina, Erica and Irina to see, from my experience I got from the city of Valen, women like to shop, besides I like to see everyone happy and money is not a problem for me.

Eleanor didn't sit around waiting all this time, she signaled to her assistants and the werewolf race woman brought a stack of dozens of papers for Eleanor to sign while she waited for us to finish checking the list.

After another 30 minutes had passed the girls had just looked through the list and even Irius was able to see some things, they wrote some things down on a list at the same time I was writing a list that Kira was passing me that belonged to Nira.

I also wrote down what I wanted to buy and started compiling the lists all together into a single list.

What I ordered was half of the dining items and furniture that were nice but without unnecessary exaggeration, some statues of mythical monsters, Heroes of the past or Gods, all the original books, all the books that according to Nira we still didn't have in the Dungeon, all base and rare metals, all alchemy materials, all reading and storage crystals, all maps, all storage items, and weapons and armor that have any magic or ability.

I also had a list of slaves that I decided to take with me after seeing their descriptions.

All this would make an astronomical sum of money that made up more than 65% of the list, what's left are useless things that have no practical use or that just look exaggerated.

I didn't want to take the statues, but it seems that Leonardo has been bothering Nira with these kinds of things to decorate the city, what we don't use we can sell later or give to someone who wants.

When I handed the list to Eleanor I could see her eyes open before she controlled her expression and went back to looking at me more seriously, I felt that this time she was sizing me up trying to understand my identity.

"This turns out to be a large sum of money, but I can't hold these items for you just with the promise that you'll come back after you take the money."  (Eleanor)

"I can bring the money over tonight if you want."  (I)

"..." (Eleanor)

"I will prepare the items for you..." (Eleanor)

"Not so fast, I think I deserve a discount for buying so many things, right?"  (I)

"The values ​​are well defined in the list you saw, plus you must have noticed that they are all below market price."  (Eleanor)

"I realized, I also know that this is to inject a little more money into the economy of this Kingdom that has just suffered a lot from recent events, plus we both know it can take weeks or months for you to sell all the things on my list. "  (I)

"Some of these things you may not even be able to sell, we both know that the values ​​on the list are just references to start a negotiation."  (I)

"..." (Eleanor)

I could see an amused glint in Eleanor's eyes as she started looking at my list again, I'm sure she can do this math quickly, I've already calculated the amount I would pay for all of this by following the prices listed on the list she gave me, it would be a value of 179,336 crystal coins, an astronomical value even for a mid-level kingdom, this equates to almost half of all my current fortune, so I will do my best to lower the value to lessen my losses.

"I am willing to offer 10% off the total price, I only do this because of the quantity you are buying."  (Eleanor)

"I don't like the sound of that, how about 40%, we both know that amount will be enough to put the Kingdom on the hook in the short term."  (I)

"This is not happening, you must remember that the items are already below market value."  (Eleanor)

"We are negotiating, give me a better offer, because 10% is a no."  (I)

"..." (Eleanor)

I can see the gleam in her eyes as she tries to analyze me, but it won't work, these things aren't that important to me, I mean it when I say I can just walk away.

I don't show anything in my expression, she also won't be able to feel anything for my Aura being hidden by Orion.

She takes a few seconds with her eyes closed looking like she's making a very important decision before opening her eyes and saying like she's giving up on something important.

"Alright, 20% off is the best I can do, are you happy now?"  (Eleanor)

"Neither me nor you, 30% off, how about that?"  (I)

"It will be easier for you to enslave me and sell me to a brothel than for me to accept this robbery in broad daylight."  (Eleanor)

"I pay the full amount in global currencies, we can even sign a legitimate contract as proof that they're not lying to each other, how about that?"  (I)

"Even in those terms 30% is still a lot, even if the Kingdom needs money right now, it's not that desperate."  (Eleanor)

"I'm a flexible person, so I'll drop it down to 29%, but you don't have to thank me."  (I)

"You still call that being flexible? That's the flexibility of a metal tower."  (Eleanor)

"I work with values, introduce me to your maximum and we can continue from there, what do you think?"  (I)

"This is my final proposal 25% off, the value would be 134,502 crystal coins."  (Eleanor)

"I will not decrease any more bronze coins in value."  (Eleanor)

"Very well, I accept this amount, we have a deal."  (I)
