Sage Albert widened his eyes to the extreme, "You… you say that you… did this by comprehending the minor law of sound? A law that does not even have a technique in the Wind Empire?!"
Robin raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Is it okay for me to make all these talismans that no one has ever thought of before me, but it's hard for you to believe that I discovered and studied minor law…?"
"That's different! I don't know how you made your talismans, but I know damn well how to explore and use unknown minor laws!
I tried a few times and gave up… my cousin is stronger and sharper than me when it comes to exploring new laws, so I vowed to take care of the kingdom and he took this heavy responsibility upon himself and has been in seclusion for thirty years to unfold another minor law in the path of fire in order to strengthen the kingdom with it…
But you are talking about discovering the law of the second sound as if it were nothing! Wait… does this mean that all your talismans are undiscovered minor laws?!" Sage Albert felt he was going crazy
Robin knows his *cousin* means Philip, the current king of the Kingdom of the Black Sun…
Robin finally knew that he had made a huge mistake… he was taking things too freely.
Robin furrowed his forehead with his hand for a few seconds as he looked at the person who was eager for an answer in front of him, then sighed and spoke, "I… sigh~ I was born with a special talent that enables me to discover laws faster than usual, is that enough for you?"
"How fast?!"
"Fast enough that I've discovered a few laws so far, but I can not give you a certain period of time as it differs from law to law." Robin shrugged his shoulders,
If he told the sage that he already had the keys to understand and write the techniques for hundreds of minor heavenly laws before he even discovered the law of truth in full… well, he better not.
"Amazing… Really amazing… So these talismans are applications of minor laws… How do you do this? Why has no one before you has been able to use the laws in this way?" The Sage's interest in talismans and Robin rose a few degrees at once
"Yes, these are just applications to laws, for your second question… ask them, how should I know why they did not find out!! I told you now that it is possible, can you go and make a talisman using your minor law? No.
Can we please go back to our topic now? I am starving" Robin was starting to get annoyed
"Oh, of course, you can go on." Sage Albert calmed him down, and a slight smile returned to his face… this young man is much more than what he has anticipated
just a few minutes ago he wanted to use him to make fire talismans, but now he appeared to be much more than that, every hour he is alive is another hour of revolutionary discoveries in every field of life…
he finally understood why the Bradleys were treating him with such respect and even went to war for him.
"Ahem, these rings come with a little space inside so I put in each ring a small talisman, it is very small and it is used repeatedly so I figured it would be better to put it a permanent carrier, so the ring itself is not important, you can say that works like a small box,
In order for the communication channel to work, there must be a twin talisman and each one be inserted in one of the rings, the two ring bearers can communicate easily after passing enough energy in the talisman inside the ring, and for the sender to activate a certain seal before speaking, do you have any questions, Your Highness?"
"What is the maximum range of communication between these rings, what is the seal that must be done before using the talisman, and how can I manufacture them?"
"There is no upper limit for the range, at least so far I can't think of a reason why there should be a maximum distance… The thing is that the time it takes a message to arrive at the other side will be delayed the farther away from the other twin ring, the delivery is not instant…
The rings direct and speed up the waves only… So if someone in a very far place uses the ring, the message might reach the twin ring after an hour or two.
As for the seal, I'll tell you when today's deal is done, if we don't agree, I won't gain anything from giving you the key to use the rings, don't you think that's appropriate?
As for how to manufacture them… you simply can't."
The Sage's joy with the first answer gradually faded until Robin reached the last word, "What do you mean I can't manufacture it? We are going to negotiate the purchase of ways to draw these talismans today."
"I can sell you talismans and rings and maybe sell certain other things… but tell you are they made? with all due respect… Forget about it!" Robin flatly refused
Sage Albert furrowed his eyebrows and looked genuinely angry, "Is that a final answer?"
Robin was taken aback by his reaction, but replied steadily, "Ahem… Everything is negotiable, but there are things that money alone can't buy."
"Oh? Then what do you suggest I can use to buy it with?"
"Duke Galan bought the Fire talisman manufacturing method by throwing himself into a war and handing me half a duchy willingly… you are asking me what would you use to buy me methods? It depends on how much you value it."
"Are you saying that Galan doesn't have the methods for making Darkness and vitality talismans? he only has the method for making the talisman of fire? and he only took it by participating in the war?" Sage Albert was very surprised by this, he thought Galan was controlling Robin to some extent up to this point… he was literally living under his nose!
"of course!" Robin nodded
Sage Albert sighed, "Then what do you propose in exchange for the long, hard conditions that you recited to me a little while ago? selling me a few talismans surely will not suffice."
Robin clicked on his seat for a few seconds thinking of a suitable offer, the problem is that the sage's expectations were too high, and he can't be Intimidated like when he used the Burtons and the Bradleys against each other
if he gave him a weak offer like sending him a hundred talismans a month or so, he would invite disaster for himself
Finally, Robin spoke, "Frankly, I can't supply you with large quantities of talismans right now, the amount that I made for the war has almost destroyed my spiritual strength and I can't continue at this rate, and I am not dedicated to manufacturing, I want to devote myself to innovation! … tell you what, Give me five years… after five years I will supply the royal family with decent quantities"
The Sage felt disappointed hearing this, "…all those *conditions* that you want from me and in the end, you tell me to be patient for five years? Forget about fulfilling your conditions. You don't even deserve the grilled blood peacock you asked for!"
Robin chuckled, knowing that the sage was trying to be as calm as possible, but he wouldn't be so kind and understanding forever… "I know that your highness brought me to talk about the talismans, but our conversation gave me an idea that might be satisfactory to both of us… you said that his majesty is spending decades in seclusion researching for a minor law in the fire path?"
"…Right, and..?"
"Want one?"
The sage's eyes widened and he quickly replied, "Speak more…"
"It just so happens that I currently have knowledge of a minor law of fire, I haven't figured out the technique for using it yet but I have the keys to writing this technique, I can write it down for you… I believe that a sage can complete the rest of the technique in a few months."
Keys to a minor heavenly law!!!
This is much greater than just discovering it, this means that Robin researched it and collected many of its essence and truth
The Black Sun kingdom has one minor law that reached the third stage, which is the one the royal family is using.
other than that only third stage minor law, the kingdom relied heavily on just five minor laws that reached the second stage and a few first stage laws to give them their current status in the world!
if they had an extra one …
Sage Albert wanted to shout with all his soul that he agrees!!
but he quelled his eagerness and replied calmly, "But that is not enough to meet all your conditions."
Robin's heart fell to his feet, he didn't expect his offer to be rejected *looks like I overestimated the offer..*
Then he spoke quickly, "Then what do you think about this, during the five years I requested, every year I will provide you with keys to a minor law in the path of Fire, do we have a deal?"
