Arthur wasn't surprised he knew about it considering it had made headlines. Perhaps in a while, the news would spread around the world.
Although the only one taking care of the store was Amanda and he was invisible on the surface, Paolo who saw Amanda with him must have guessed he had a big role. After all, he already had a strange rose that he thought was very magical.
So far, he doubted it was really just a plant.
"If you want that agarwood, you can come to our store with 15K Euros," Arthur replied.
He told him to buy because he might say that he was happy if he could get the agarwood, but he would definitely not consider that as payment for their transaction. After all, it was something that was sold freely.
He could at most only hope that Arthur would give him the agarwood as a gift. And of course Arthur wouldn't do that.
pαndα`noνɐ1~сoМ "I heard it's gone," Paolo said in a tone that sounded like he was smiling wryly.
One would not believe that a mobster could have such an expression and that was when he was talking to a young man.
Even Arthur felt strange, he wondered if Paolo had speculations about him. After all, as a mobster, the man should know more unknown things. He probably attributed Arthur's strangeness to those things.
"Wait a few more days, there will be new ones," Arthur replied.
After that, he disconnected the phone.
At the same time, he opened a message containing a file.
He downloaded it and immediately opened the contents.
There were four items, each with several pictures and a complete description, of where they were found and their approximate origin.
The first was a silver sword that looked brilliant but was already 5000 years old.
It had no rust at all, if it was sold in a shop and you said it was brand new, people would definitely believe you.
The sword was found in China. Even bringing it to Europe was very difficult because it had to avoid the Chinese military, police, and agents.
With such quality, if it is auctioned, the price will definitely soar. Rich people who love swords will not hesitate to spend a lot of money.
Arthur was immediately attracted to the sword, marking it as one that he would buy.
He then looked at the second item.
It was an ancient red cloth that was no different from the cloth that could be easily found everywhere.
However, it was very old and that era should not have had a cloth of that color with such quality, which was why it was interesting.
However, Arthur was not so interested in the cloth. His instincts directly told him that it was just an ordinary cloth.
He speculated that the reason it had such a good color was because it was from a grand era that had already been buried.
The third item turned out to be a green feather.
It was similar to a bird feather but about 50 centimeters long. Even harpies don't have feathers that long, so the bird that owned the feather must have been very large.
Of course, it was confirmed to be a real feather and was found in an ancient coffin where even the corpse inside the coffin had been reduced to ashes.
'This is interesting to research,' Arthur thought.
And the fourth item surprised him quite a lot.
It was a gold key.
What was interesting was not the key, but the picture on the key.
It was a picture of a tower that seemed to pierce through the clouds and on top of it was a triangular building that looked exactly like the Egyptian Pyramids.
The key itself was found near one of those Pyramids.
This one had Arthur holding his chin, starting to speculate.
Of course, the rumor that the Pyramid is the top of a buried tower is not new. Many have thought so.
Some people wanted to dig, but were banned by the Egyptian government.
"Hey, Arthur, why are you walking so slowly? Who just called you?" Bella apparently approached Arthur first because she couldn't stand waiting.
Arriving beside him, she stared at his phone screen and spontaneously said, "what is this?"
At her words, Carla, who was approaching more slowly, quickened her pace and looked at Arthur's phone as well.
"A key?" She said, showing the same confused expression as Bella.
"Arthur, what key is that?" asked Bella, seemingly forgetting the previous topic.
She knew that it wasn't as simple as just a key because a magus like Arthur was unlikely to make a serious observation of an ordinary item.
"Probably the key to the tower under the Pyramid." Arthur who had no answer answered with his speculation.
That of course surprised the two young ladies.
"Seriously?" asked Carla. "Is there really a tower under the Pyramid. It seemed that she took Arthur's words seriously.
The latter replied, "Just my guess... Maybe it's just an ordinary key."
"But what if it's true?" Bella became more interested. "Arthur, you should take us with you if you go there."
"If it's true, I won't go there before I become much stronger than I am now," Arthur replied.
He thought that if that place was real, just relying on his current magic power might not be enough.
"That means you girls have to train more to increase your strength. Even if it's me, I won't go with someone else who will only slow me down." He added, instantly making Bella's lips pout while Carla rolled her eyes.
At the same time, Arthur sent a message to Paolo.
(I want that sword, feather, and key! When can you deliver them here?)
Paolo replied quite quickly. (We'll try to be as quick as possible, but you know, people like us can't move freely on the continent, so please be patient!)
Arthur had no problem with that, he replied, (alright!)
After that, he went to the stairs to the top floor of the school building.
Carla and Bella followed, but they didn't say anything else.
They parted with Arthur in front of their classroom door while Arthur went to his class.
The fat student, Harry, was already sitting in his chair. Like yesterday, he was reading comics.
Seeing Arthur, he immediately smiled, waving his hand for him to sit down immediately.
When he sat down, he said, "Arthur, there is a more interesting place..."
Before she could say more, Arthur raised his hand, signaling him to stop.
"I'm not interested in coming to a place like that," he replied.
"But yesterday you came to the casino, even won big?"
"That has its reasons..."
"Come on, once in a while doesn't matter, right?"
"Indeed, but yesterday was enough."
Harry, "..."
The chubby young man finally sighed, knowing that Arthur wouldn't change his mind just because of his words.
