The ladies came in with the appraiser, who was an Ascended Rank Elite with a crafting specialty class.
[Remi, did you pick useless stones?] Karl asked.
[Yeah, and give him some of this grass I picked. There is too much of it here, and it's in the way.]
The appraiser bowed a full ninety degrees, while Overlord Niall chuckled at the show of deference, or more likely at Karl's discomfort around it.
"Sir, I am told that you require a conversion for some items you have obtained?"
Karl set the fistful of delicately cut gemstones and the large bundle of magical grass on the table side by side. "This should be enough, I think. If you can convert that to credits for me, I would like to rent an apartment and maintain a balance in my account for incidentals."
The man just stared at the pile, while Overlord Niall picked up one of the gems, a faintly magical garnet, low Ascended Rank by Karl's estimation. free𝑤ebnovel.com
"You know, a Fire Garnet of this quality and cut is worth a year's rent. You didn't need to make the man go through so much work." The Overlord was staring at the gem with what looked like lust, and examining it with the practised movements of a jeweller.
Or perhaps a jewel thief. Many Rogue Class Elites had a questionable past.
Karl shrugged. "I never exchange anything, I didn't know. But if that's the case, you can keep that one for your assistance, and we can convert these two for credits, plus the pile of herbs."
The appraiser looked at the pile of herbs with great concern. "Are you certain that you wish to trade all of this?"
[Make them go away. Those are the trash stalks that I pruned so much better ones would grow, or to clear space.] Remi agreed.
"Yes. Those are the lower grade castoffs that I don't need anymore."
The man seemed to freeze, and began breathing too fast for a few seconds before Lotus cast something on him.
"Panic attack, he should be alright with a calming spell on him." She explained.
"Sir, those stalks are all Commander Rank, and they're worth nearly twenty thousand credits each." The appraiser stammered.
"Do you regret picking the gem now?" Karl mock whispered to Overlord Niall.
"Not at all. I don't need Spirit Grass for anything. But magic type classes like the appraiser go all googly over it. You should see if you can get some potions made with the portion you kept. Your girlfriend would benefit from them."
Karl stared at the grass with his system interface up. [Moderate quality feed for Thor]
[Mild Intoxicant for Hawk]
[Combines with Sage Spirit Herb to make minor Soul Strengthening potions for Hawk]
That last line was a new one, but there were no other listed uses with Identify, so it was no real use to his beasts.
