Chapter 761: Chapter 291 Metal Barrier (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_2

“No, no, Lord Reine, the transfer of our shares will still take a few days. Because when Yakesen Auction House was established, the rules stipulated that the consent of the major shareholders must be sought when transferring shares,”

“So, how about three days from now?” Drack wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead and said.

“Of course, I hope everything goes smoothly then,” Reine smiled, stood up, and said.

“Smoothly, smoothly…” Drack said somewhat stiffly.

He felt that what Reine had said was eighty percent true.

Besides, whether the item was there or not, a Diviner of official Wizard rank and above could easily and clearly divine the situation.

But the problem was, if the item really wasn’t there anymore, would his brother, Marquis Olenz, still agree to give Reine the shares?

After all, his brother Olenz was not very generous!

….

Reine soon returned to the Sword Bearers Branch.

He had a basic understanding of the other party’s attitude and intentions after their communication.

“They care a lot about the Ancient Giant Troll fangs; for this reason, they would rather offer 2% of the Minter Branch’s shares for the chance to trade peacefully with me,”

“But unfortunately, the troll fangs have indeed been used,”

“This 2% share of the Minter Branch is my compensation for spiritual loss, and I hope they don’t pull any more tricks,”

“Otherwise…”

…..

In the afternoon, just as Reine was about to make another trip to the exchange hall, Olena hurried to his dormitory.

“Lord Reine, Admiral Edward is back. If you are free now, would you come with me?”

“Of course.”

Soon, Reine, accompanied by the brisk matron Olena, arrived at the office of Admiral Edward at the top of the administrative building.

This was Reine’s first meeting with the head of the Sword Holder Minter Branch.

The other party was an old man in admiral uniform, with piercing tiger eyes, and although there were crow’s feet around his eyes, it did not affect his majestic demeanor. Instead, it gave him a sense of profound experience.

“Admiral Edward, good day,” Reine respectfully bowed.

“Viscount Renn, hello, please sit down,” Admiral Edward smiled kindly and sized up Reine with his gaze.

Strictly speaking, this was the second time he had seen Reine.

The first encounter, however, had been one-sided.

At that time, Reine had knocked down the Obsidian giant with a single hammer, leaving a very deep impression on him.

“Reine, I’ve seen your mission performance recently, and I am truly amazed! Especially your feat of defeating the ancient hero Mong, it exceeded my expectations,”

“Thank you for your praise, Admiral,” Reine said with a slight bow and a smile.

“There are a couple of things I brought you here for. First is to meet you, and second is to discuss a few matters,”

“First off, as for the mark on your body, I have already spoken with Archbishop Gomez of the Mingster Goddess Church. He will personally help you resolve the issue with the mark,”

“However, you will need to find some time in the next couple of days to see him, as Archbishop Gomez needs to first understand the intensity of your mark,”

“Thank you, Admiral, for your concern,” Reine bowed again.

“The second matter is that I hope you don’t leave the Sword Bearers Branch of Mingster too soon. You’ve just joined the Sword Bearers, and I believe you can truly consolidate your experience at the branch,”

“Of course, rest assured, as of now, I haven’t considered leaving the Sword Bearers Branch,” Reine said with a smile.

“Very good, Viscount Renn, I heard from Olena that you are also a rare Metal Magic Wizard?”

“Uh… yes, sir,” Reine hesitated for a moment before promptly nodding in agreement.

This was no secret; many people in the branch already knew it.

“Then I have something here which I believe will interest you.” Admiral Edward smiled mysteriously and pulled an ancient parchment from a drawer, handing it to Reine.

Reine took it with perplexity and then glanced at Edward.

The Admiral smiled and gestured with his hand, indicating that Reine should open it.

Without much hesitation, Reine untied the string around the parchment and carefully unrolled it.

“Metal Barrier!” Reine exclaimed, eyes wide with shock.

It was a first-level Metal Magic defensive spell!

This was exceedingly rare.

Reine had searched for a long time and had not found a Metal Magic defensive spell.

This was exactly why he had chosen the Metal Morphing Spell as his innate wizardry, which, as it turned out, was highly effective.

But he had not expected to come across a rare, first-level defensive Metal Magic spell at this moment.

At the same time, Reine also felt puzzled.

He was sure that the branch’s exchange catalog did not list this spell, otherwise, he would not have opted for the Metal Morphing Spell.

“Although you probably already possess a defensive Metal Magic spell, this one is among the best options I was able to apply for from the Sword Bearer headquarters for you,”

“Having an additional defensive spell is not a bad thing,”

“You are so young, with a bright future, and surviving in battle is the most crucial,” Admiral Edward explained his reason for the defensive magic.

“I am very grateful for your help,” Reine stood up and bowed.

Only Reine knew himself that he did not actually have any defensive Metal Magic spells as his innate wizardry, so the ‘Metal Barrier’ was his first.

“However, the exchange medals and Merit Points that should be paid, even I can’t waive them,” Admiral Edward waved his hand with a smile.
