Chapter 196: Recording Eye 2

196- Recording Eye 2

Author:

Ok, I failed to notice that the gift icons have changed in the new update of the app. So, its names have also changed. So please be sure to check the new changes in the announcement section, which is at the end of the chapter.

And as for the readers who have sent gifts this month, thank you for your support. And yes, I will keep my word and will do a Mass release, but the mass release will be done on the first week of every month. The reason for this is that some readers send gifts on random dates, so it creates a lot of confusion. So, I devised a plan that on the last day, I will sum up all the gifts that were sent and do a Mass release according to that.

So, I am planning a 5- or 6-chapters mass release based on this months gifts that I have received.

And please keep voting with the Power stones.

=====================

.

So, with the ability of Recording Eye, Orochi doesnt even have to pay a single penny and he could still gain more than 17 Fighting techniques.

Although he is a miser, he is still willing to spend money because of two reasons.

The first reason, although cultivators' memory is superb and can remember a lot of things by just having a small glance, but that kind of ability will only surface after cultivation reaches a certain level. And any human who is in the Mortal realm is far from obtaining that kind of ability.

Hence, when Chand Roj allowed Orochi to view all the 17 books, he was not worried that Orochi could remember every content of the book.

And although, Orochis mind is sharp and his brain functions multiple times faster than any other person at the same level, even he cannot memorize everything in a single glance. So, he had to use the Recording eye feature of the system.

So, if he doesnt buy any book and later practices these techniques, then people would start suspecting him and will try to uncover the truth. And this will lead to the birth of greed in their hearts.

And Orochis rule is that- Never expose your full abilities in front of others. Even if it is your wife, parents, children, siblings, or even sworn brothers & sisters.

Yes, even if the situation demands, Orochi will never expose his secrets in front of Armelia.

As for the second reason...

Mr. Chand Roj, I would like to buy these 4 fighting techniques.

Hearing this, Chand Roj smiled and said,

Mr. Orochi has a made great choice.

Please be assured that I will surely give you a satisfactory price for these.

The total cost of these 4 fighting techniques and the one that Mrs. Armelia has selected is 7300 gold coins, but since Mr. Orochi is making such a large transaction with my Gold Cloud Chamber of commerce, then you only have to pay 7000 gold coins.

I dont know if Mr. Orochi is satisfied with this price?

Hearing the price, there was no fluctuation on Orochis face and he indifferently nodded.

Actually, 7000 gold coins are a huge amount for the people living in countries like the Windy Country.

A normal familys income in the windy country ranges from 5 to 30 gold coins. And in major cities like the border city of the windy country, capital, etc; the income is 2 or 3 times more.

And if an average person, handles his/her spending properly, then 1 gold coin is enough to cover his/her living costs for 1 month. [If he lives in a cost effective room, eats food that is not expensive, etc.]

Not only that, with 7000 gold coins:

Orochi can pay for more than 23 thousand peoples entry fees. [Recap: 30 silver coins is the entry fee.]

In the inn where he is staying with Armelia and June, he has rented 2 rooms. There he can stay for almost 10 years. that means he can spend his whole life in that inn with 7000 gold coins. [Note: Considering the fact that his vitality stat is 7, so his remaining life span is only 7 years...]

[Authors note: Of course, its a joke. How can he spend his life here?]

So, when Chand Roj saw Orochi agreed indifferently, he was surprised.

But what he didnt know was that when Orochi was in the Leon clan, just his weekly pocket money amounted to a few thousand gold coins. And even the servants and guards' monthly salary was more than 2000 gold coins.

And also, the wealth that he currently holds is at least a thousand times more than what he had before he was part of the Leon clan.

So, for him, this amount did not bring any psychological distress.

Oh, by the way, I also asked for the formation books, could you show them?

Orochi asked.

ha... yes, yes... I forgot about it. I am really sorry for that.

Snap

Chand Roj snapped his fingers and the servant behind him placed the books in his hand on the table. The number of books related to formation & arrays decreased drastically when compared to the books related to fighting techniques. There were only 3 books on the table.

Chand Roj continued,

I can only regretfully tell you that, the number of books related to the field of formations and arrays is rare in our branch. But if you would like, I can request others branches of our Golden cloud chamber of commerce to send books related to formations and arrays.

Orochi did not answer, he first looked at the 3 books and sighed with disappointment.

The most valuable formation book in these 3 books was coincidentally the Qi Compressing formation that he knew like the back of his hand.

One of the books was about introduction to the field of Formation and Arrays.

While the remaining book was about the basic materials used in the formation & arrays.

So, except for the Qi compressing formation. Orochi bought the remaining two books for 200 gold coins each.

Seeing Orochis disappointed look, Chand Roj once again apologized. But suddenly he remembered something and spoke,

Mr. Orochi, although I was not able to meet all of your requirements, I request that you attend our Golden cloud chamber of commerces auction that takes place every month.

There will be many precious things available in the auction and I am sure that they will interest you.

If you are lucky maybe things related to formations and other good fighting techniques are likely to appear.

===============

Quick Recap:

1 Lower grade energy stone = 1000 gold coins = 1,000,000 Sikka

1 gold coin = 100 silver coin= 1000 sikka

1 silver coin = 100 bronze coin= 10 sikka

1 sikka = 10 Bronze coin
