Weapon seller in the world of magic

Then, I use my speed and the wind to my advantage to run towards the eastern end of the island and start a new fire, a few meters nearby. The wind that was blowing from the west will burn it before the incoming fire. After that, I can simply rest at the burnt area at the eastern end and contact my people."

Mark was impressed by her answer. He realized that she might not have all the knowledge in the world but she sure is wise.

He nodded with a smile, "You are correct, Princess Shen. I will fulfill my word and give you the clue right away.

Tomorrow will turn into a memorable day for you, perhaps one of the happiest days in your life. Who knows; you might even cry in happiness."

p "Eh? What does that mean?" Shen Ling, at once, wondered what he is going to do that will have that much impact on her.

It is clear to her that this is related to her heart rather than her brain. Now, she is usually uninterested in material possessions. Despite being in the 5-circle realm, she was more like a scholar rather than a warrior. Instead of a semi-divine weapon, she would be more interested in mysterious ruins, ancient texts, etc…

She doesn't know whether this handsome young fellow knows her enough or not but she decided to believe him and replied, "I will look forward to it, then."

"Trust me, you won't be disappointed." Mark let out a comment and picked up his pace as they reached the guest room.

After saying good night, Mark closed his door and lies down on the bed to take a short nap. Allen, on the other hand, simply waited in his room until further orders.

Meanwhile, the princess returned to her room and fell into thoughts. If it is just happiness, there can be a lot of things but she might even cry? It can only happen on a few occasions like she meets her idol or if her dream has been fulfilled. Maybe, there's a hidden portal in the wild, which leads to a different world? She let her imagination run wild to expand the possibility of answers.

"If only I had answered the first question right, I would have connected the two clues and solved the puzzle. Let's see what present he is going to give me, tomorrow." She sat on her bed after changing into comfortable wear. Just as she was about to sleep, something clicked in her mind. "Hmm, speaking of the present, didn't he give me a customary gift? Let's open it before going to bed."

She then took out the present from her storage ring and removed the gift wrap. It revealed a metal box with the words, "Genesis" on the top with a minimalistic design. It is only stainless steel. So, there's nothing important here. However, there's a hidden spell cast on it by the system to make sure that the customers won't feel the heat even if it was placed in the sun for longer durations.

Shen Ling opened the lid and found a glossy black revolver, although with a longer 5inch barrel. As she picked it up, she saw a note with instructions as well as a small message.

After reading it, a trace of surprise appeared on her face, "this is the ether firearm, which has yet to be put into a sale? Now, that was unexpected. I really wonder who supplies him with these weapons. But then again, he doesn't seem like the type to bow his head. What if he isn't the puppet of that mysterious existence but the one who participated in creating these weapons?"

A strange thought appeared in her head but she quickly dismissed it away as she had already known about his past 25 years of life. Western Moon's spy network is second to only WEB. So, she was confident in the information on him.

It was one thing if he kept a low profile as he cultivated under a mysterious master but it was entirely different if he also had another secret existence. That's why she assumed that she was overthinking. Soon, she fell into sleep.

A few hours passed away. Midnight arrived and except for the soldiers on night shift, everyone else is peacefully sleeping.

Mark suddenly opened his eyes as if an alarm rang in his head and woke him up. He took out the pocket watch from the inventory and looked at the time. The dial was glowing in darkness along with the minute and the hour hands. "Oh, it was already 2:35? It looks like I have slept for nearly 5 hours."

Mark switched on the light and went to the washroom. After washing his face to remove the drowsiness, he switched off the light once again and spoke to the system. "Open, the pending notifications."

The holographic screen appeared before him with the hidden quest notification.

He pressed on accept.

*Ding! You accepted the quest.

*Ding! Would you like to be teleported to the quest location or wait?

Warning: If you choose to wait, then, you would have to go to the location manually.

"This is why I kept the notification pending." Mark chose to teleport.

*Ding! Allen Spencer and Alina Spencer can be teleported to the quest location along with you. Would you like to take them along?

"Choosing Alina is best but I cannot leave Song Yue alone without protection. And Allen isn't strong enough yet but if I equip him with the divine sword right away instead of waiting for his breakthrough, this might work. I might also need disguise too. I should thank Feng Wu for giving me the idea to buy plain masks and black robes. Anyway, let's get going."

Very soon, Mark and Allen disappeared from their rooms.
