Chapter 265: Commission (400 Plus)

Just as William was working hard.

Isabet still had to work during the day; being able to earn an extra salary was always a good thing.

Lower City District, Ma Li Street.

Dilapidated houses, filthy streets... they were an entirely different world from the other districts of Plymouth.

Of course, compared to the Waste City District, where gangs were entrenched and street fights occurred almost daily, Ma Li Street was still not too bad.

Isabet was a child who grew up on Ma Li Street.

Children who grew up here basically had no opportunity for education, and many even passed away at a very young age.

He walked into the hall, found an attendant, explained his purpose, and was immediately led to the third floor of the castle.

On Ma Li Street, an old woman with white hair smiled and greeted her.

"Then... regarding the payment?" Halsey asked with a smile: "Gelin, what do you want?"

Aaron's eyes were fanatical: "Why... can't a Craftsman of the Third Primordial Substance forge a Non-human Level Magical Item? I am determined to break this rule!"

Thinking of this, a smile could not help but appear on Isabet's face as she walked.

Not only had she found a job with generous pay, but that disgusting customer had also died in a sewer, and it even seemed there was some possibility of development with William?

Although William was a poor boy, for many girls in the Lower City District, he was already a decent romantic prospect.

"Actually... among the fragmented inheritances I obtained, there are some design blueprints for Non-human Level Magical Items... they are about these three paths."

Not long after, Halsey and Gantis pushed the door open and entered, their faces filled with excitement and apprehension: "Gelin, could it be that you have already succeeded?"

"Hi, Isabet, I heard you found a formal job at the bar recently; that's really great."

Aaron pondered as he walked down the corridor.

"Gelin, you should be of the 'Light' path; there is really no need to pursue the lingering characteristics of 'Shadow', 'Pupa', and 'Tower'..." Gantis muttered.

And even if they could grow up, at the age of eleven or twelve, they would be sent to factories that used child labor, becoming consumables amidst heavy labor.

"Just 600 pounds." Aaron smiled and quoted the price.

If it were when Aaron was still a 'Light Shepherd', he would be plotting against Teacher Gantis's inheritance right now.

Aaron responded with a smile.

"Good day, Mrs. Shuge."

Aaron continued.

Mr. Halsey gasped: "For example, Gantis... he fell out with the 'Craftsman Brotherhood' precisely because of his teacher's legacy."

Inside Halsey's Moving Castle.

A moment later.

Isabet nodded; although this was not much for her now, the habit of thrift still made her decide not to miss the weekend prayer Ritual.

Mrs. Shuge continued: "However, Cleric Smith from our district church has been transferred away, and a new Cleric Im has replaced him. Although I feel a bit embarrassed, I have to admit that Cleric Im's chanting and understanding of the doctrine are far better than that old Smith who only knew how to drink... The church has a prayer activity this weekend, and every believer who attends can receive a pound of rye bread."

While drinking tea and waiting for Halsey to arrive, Aaron was still silently calculating in his heart:

'But entrusting it directly to Gantis and the others won't work; this would likely expose the fact that I am related to the arson case at the Baron's manor...'

Isabet's whole family were devout believers of the Holy Spirit Church, but she had been so busy lately that she hadn't even gone to pray on the weekend, and she couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

Halsey's expression relaxed a lot: "I will try my best to collect them for you at the market and other gatherings. Gelin, what materials do you need?"

In his view, only by maintaining such a fanatical pursuit could Gelin constantly strive for perfection and possess such extraordinary skills at such a young age.

But now, his heart was completely calm.

"At the same time, I hope to obtain Mr. Halsey's help... to acquire some high-level materials."

Halsey immediately frowned.

Isabet returned the smile.

Gantis moved his lips, wanting to offer some advice, but ultimately did not speak.

Mrs. Shuge looked at the worn-out dress on Isabet and shook her head with a sigh: "With the night job, you can be a bit more relaxed during the day... By the way, you rarely go to church lately?"

"Sorry..."

"This happens to be within my scope of business."

"Customer satisfaction is a Craftsman's greatest pursuit."

Making friends with a master Craftsman was also very beneficial for him.

"Child... listen to me, a woman's most beautiful time is only those few years; don't put too much burden on yourself... you deserve better."

Some parents, because of work, could not take care of their children and would even buy a kind of mandrake juice to feed them. It had an anesthetic effect, allowing the baby to sleep soundly for a whole day so it wouldn't disturb the exhausted parents.

This price was not too high; it was too low.

It was precisely because of this that Isabet knew how precious the job at the bar was; even enduring being harassed every day, she silently persisted.

Aaron stated the promotion materials he was currently seeking.

Deformity, disease, hunger, cold... like countless Demons, they took away the lives of many infants and young children.

However, perhaps it was made into a Non-human Level Magical Item, who knows.

Recently, her luck seemed to be getting better slowly.

In fact, given the value of the materials he held back, this order could have been given for free, but there was no need to say that.

'This way, even if it is discovered, the Hunter Bar is just a platform, just a platform... It has the obligation to keep secrets for guests. Sure enough, controlling the platform is convenient.'

"Baron Jacques..."

"The Holy Spirit is merciful; it will forgive you..."

At Gantis's current age and state, the possibility of opening the Fourth Primordial Substance was already very small.

Night.

Because there were follow-up orders, he was prepared to bleed money in this regard.

Aaron looked at Gantis in surprise and shook his head secretly.

"This nobleman is clearly connected to the 'Blood of Decay'... and that Luofuman did not come for William; his arrival in Plymouth clearly involves another conspiracy... Baron Jacques is a lead."

"I want... the spiritual remains of a Non-human Existence, purely 'Pupa', 'Tower', or 'Shadow' ones will do."

"A pound of bread?"

For major powers, Non-human Grade Magical Items with barely tolerable negative effects are more popular trump cards than Non-human Existences.

'Might as well package it as a commission and hand it to those bounty hunters...'

"Hiss... remains of the Fourth Primordial Substance, this is the true foundation of secret organizations. Even if they have stock, they wouldn't sell it; they would use it to cultivate newcomers, or even craft it into Non-human Grade Items, becoming the key to maintaining the school's heritage."

Mr. Halsey, having verified the 'monkey version' of the displacement drawer, was very satisfied with the finished product: "It meets my expectations perfectly. Gelin, you are indeed an excellent Craftsman."

"What a truly great idea... I will keep an eye out for you, but the value of these materials cannot be measured by simple money; you must be prepared."

Halsey agreed with a solemn expression.
