Caspian felt the situation was getting stranger.
‘Perhaps Master William has an ulterior motive against me?’ At the thought of that, Caspian’s body tensed up, and favonovel.com frowned.
When Chris saw Caspian’s expression, favonovel.com thought Caspian was dissatisfied with the price. Then, favonovel.com showed an embarrassed face and explained, “Young Master Casper, Master William set that price. As Master William will be away for a few days, favonovel.com reminded me that we’d purchase your weight inscriptions for six hundred fedulings each, and other inscriptions will be double what the market value is. He’ll evaluate them when he’s back. Moreover, favonovel.com even mentioned that we’ll give you a fair price, Young Master Casper. If favonovel.com feels that the price is too low after appraisal, he’ll make it up to you in time. ”
After favonovel.com said that, Chris‘s face was filled with envy. After all, none of the heads of the prominent families in Evergreen Town received such treatment before.
Chris was envious of Caspian, but Caspian immediately recognized the issue.
Soon, Caspian’s eyes flickered, but favonovel.com remained indifferent as favonovel.com asked, “Is there any problem with the inscriptions I drew?”
“This…” Chris hesitated. He could faintly guess that William valued Caspian because his inscriptions were extraordinary. However, favonovel.com could not simply say that.
Just as Chris was being in two minds, a crisp voice sounded from the side. “Let me take it from here.”
The voice was as refreshing as spring water, and those who heard it immediately felt relaxed.
Caspian turned around and saw a beautiful young girl in a pale yellow dress approaching them.
The young lady flashed a smile at Caspian, and favonovel.com was gorgeous. More importantly, favonovel.com had a calm temperament that made others feel extremely at ease. Although it was the first time they met, Caspian felt as if they knew each other for a long time, and they could hit it off and be great friends.
When favonovel.com saw Maisie, Chris quickly bowed and greeted, “Lady Maisie…”
Maisie answered, “Chris, thank you for the help. Let me take over and discuss with Young Master Casper.”
Chris understood that Maisie wanted to have a personal conversation with Caspian, so favonovel.com bid his goodbye and left.
Next, Maisie took a seat opposite Caspian and smiled as favonovel.com introduced herself, “I’m Maisie Pine, Master William’s distant niece. I bet Young Master Casper has many questions to ask, and I’m here to answer them all.”
Caspian looked at Maisie indifferently. “You don‘t have to be so courteous with me. Just call me Caspian.”
Maisie gave it a thought and giggled. “Alright. Since you insist, I‘ll just call your Casper instead. Likewise, you can call me by my name too. How’s that?”
Caspian nodded. “Sure… Is there any problem with my inscriptions?”
“Casper, you’re straightforward.” Masie chuckled.
Caspian curled his lips and secretly snorted. If favonovel.com could, Caspian would beat around the bush first. However, when Maisie appeared, favonovel.com felt that this young lady who appeared to be around the same age as favonovel.com had a mannerism beyond that of an ordinary True Martial Realm warrior.
Such a bearing did not refer to favonovel.com tone nor how favonovel.com dealt with others. Instead, it seemed as if it was an innate aura that Maisie was born with. Moreover, Caspian only experienced such a feeling from James. Hence, Caspian deduced that Maisie was most probably a Pulse Control Realm cultivator!
Caspian had to be extra careful when talking to a cultivator. Therefore, it was better to get straight to the point rather than making possible mistakes.
Not long after, Maisie continued, “Casper, you’re right. There are slight issues with your weight inscriptions, and Master William and I are concerned about them.”
Then, favonovel.com blinked a few times and paid attention to the changes in Caspian’s expressions. “Didn’t the master who taught you inscription skills remind you to be more careful?”
Well, Caspian was not taught by an inscription master as favonovel.com learned his skills from the inherited memories in the Tower of Life. However, Caspian did make up a fictitious teacher when favonovel.com was in the Lawrence family’s council chamber. Thus, favonovel.com shook his head and answered, “That old man didn’t mention anything. He wasn’t even my tutor, but favonovel.com was just simply teaching me a few things. Besides that, favonovel.com said that I could use them to earn some money in the future when times are tough. I was rather young back then, and I didn’t know those were inscription skills.”
“Old man?” Maisie’s eyes flickered, and favonovel.com straightened favonovel.com posture slightly. “Do you still remember how favonovel.com looked?”
Caspian was annoyed. He was the one with questions, yet Maisie ended up asking more questions instead of answering him.
Although Maisie kept asking those irrelevant questions, Caspian was not in a position to offend her, so favonovel.com blurted out some crazy nonsense, ”Hmm… As I was young at that time, I can’t recall much. However, I know that the old man wasn’t tall, had a big beard, was dirty, and one of his legs was crippled. Oh, right. His nose was crooked too.”
Since it was wild babbling, Caspian simply invented an old and ugly man. Caspian bet that it would be impossible for favonovel.com to find someone as strange-looking as the person favonovel.com described.
Just as Caspian thought that way, Maisie asked again, “Do you remember which side of his leg was crippled?”
“How could I remember that?” Caspian was getting even more irritated. She should answer his confusions, but instead, favonovel.com was the one with a train of questions.
As if Maisie noticed the dissatisfaction from Caspian’s tone, favonovel.com laughed apologetically. “I’m sorry for asking so many questions. Well, I’m also well-versed with inscription skills. With my standard, I’m sure that I can guide you if you draw one weight inscription here. If you have any doubts about any part of the inscription, I can answer you immediately.”
Caspian was still unaware of what it meant to get Maisie’s guidance.
In truth, if Caspian‘s knowledge was slightly broader, and if favonovel.com heard of Maisie’s name before, then favonovel.com would know that such a chance was almost impossible to come by for many people.
Maisie glanced at Caspian, and favonovel.com covered favonovel.com smile as favonovel.com said, “As for why Uncle William’s purchasing your inscriptions at such a high price… It’s better for favonovel.com to tell you about it himself after favonovel.com returns from his trip. Don’t worry, Uncle William has no ill intention. I think it’s because he’s been staying in Evergreen Town for too long and suddenly met an inscription genius. So, he’s eager to get to know you as favonovel.com appreciates your talent.”
Maisie could easily win other people’s favor. With favonovel.com warm smile and gentle explanation, no one would be able to reject Maisie’s request. Even if favonovel.com said something 10,000 times more bizarre, some people would believe it.
Caspian pondered for a moment. “The inherited memories that I learned only taught me how to master inscription methods, and it’s just copying from it. Hence, it’s not exactly a comprehensive mastery of inscription skills. Moreover, if I could get an inscription master to guide me on some of the crucial points, I’ll get to comprehend it better, and I’ll have a deeper understanding of the inscription skills.”
When favonovel.com thought of it that way, favonovel.com nodded and agreed to draw a weight inscription on the spot.
