Chapter 375: Work Day
Before the servant arrived, Sage had already created a new Human Seal. During the transformation, just like the last time, hed altered his soul slightly to give him a new face, features, and aura. Even if he was an extremely long distance away from where he started, there was no harm in being a little cautious. What if he were to by chance run into one of his enemies from the past? Both of his previous two faces had been distributed on wanted posters in the Dou Kingdom and Shihu Kingdom.
With a new look, he followed the servant to the main building of the manor. When he stepped out of the storeroom he was once again impressed by the view from the high platform. The utter magnitude of such a structure was amazing. From this high point, the air was quite clear at the time and he could see to the other manors on similarly high platforms. The chamber that housed this city was a thousand miles wide and a thousand feet tall. Recalling the view hed got from the outside, that meant there must be hundreds if not thousands of floors just like the one he was on now. What could possibly require thousands of cities stacked on top of each other? The outside world had such massive amounts of empty and open wilderness, so what was the purpose for such a huge city?
He put aside his thoughts for now, and focused on the manor he was walking into. An odd look crawled onto his face as he looked around. The place seemed very much like Guan Zhenyan. Everywhere he looked there were exquisite works of art and expensive furnishings, but they were also piled haphazardly. It looked less like a home and more like a storeroom. It was as if hed stepped into the wealthiest hoarders house ever. There were small passageways between the expensive items and treasures, but without care it would be very easy to bump a hanging chain or a precariously balanced stack of golden platters and goblets.
Such terrible taste.
As he walked, Sage noticed that everything was spotlessly clean and he caught sight of an array formation on one of the few clear spots on the walls. A high level cleansing array. So, Guan Zhenyan was too lazy to store his valuables in Storage Chests, but he instead splurged on expensive arrays to keep them all shiny? The man was already too odd for him to understand, so he kept his eyes forward and followed the servant to a central chamber where Guan Zhenyan was currently lounging on a massive couch and puffing his pipe as usual.
Ahh, youre here! Ready for your first day?
Sir, what was that poison?
Hah, you woke up pretty quickly! That was my Skin-eating Heart Fire. Since you survived youve passed the test. I was worried you wouldnt be able to withstand my strongest poisons, but it looks like I was worried for nothing! You completed the task, but you also did quite a bit of damage to my floor so that will cut into your pay, the same goes for that furniture.
Bah! Ive got some of my own in the Universe Ring, just give it back to me!
No can do. If you want the ring back youll have to pay me at least a quarter of what I spent to retrieve you from the Shou Empire. Lets see that will be about 10 million Spirit Stones. Do you have it?
Sage didnt bother answering, just grumbling to himself and stopping the mental conversation with that lazy cheapskate. Instead he sent the Hoplite back to his home and asked them to build him some furniture. A few hours later, he brought a few Hoplites out and had them set up a new bedroom, ones theyd made with bamboo and steelsilk. They also brought the other bed and dresser back outside of the storehouse, calling over other servants to return the furniture so Sage wouldnt have to pay a rental fee for them. Thats when he remembered something.
Youre also making me pay rent for this room, arent you? Which room has the smallest fee, I want that one.
Haha, youre learning!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
