Chapter 606
A sudden thought then occurred to Severin as he asked Wuhlricht, “By the way, are there any treasures in this world that can improve a person’s physical fitness? By that, I mean, something that can help a person develop attainment even though they were born without the talent. Do such things exist?”
Wuhlricht knew right away why Severin wanted something like that and said to him, “Do you wish to find something like that for your wife? Did you get married to an ordinary woman who doesn’t have any sort of attainment?”
Severin frowned at Wuhlricht’s response. Many practitioners, particularly those with higher attainment, often had a superiority complex and tended to look down on ordinary people who did not have any attainment. It could be likened to how the wealthy look down on the poor. That was why Wuhlricht seemed so surprised when he suspected that Severin was looking for such treasures for his wife.
After all, Severin was an incredibly talented practitioner with a high level of attainment, and it would have been so much more ideal for him to marry a woman who had a talent for attainment and was about as strong as he was. In the eyes of practitioners, that would be the ideal couple.
Severin nodded. “Yes. To be honest, my wife really doesn’t have much attainment now, so I’m looking to find something like that so she could have a chance to break through and become a true practitioner in the future!” Severin thought for a while and then added, “You’ve already been kind enough to give me a ninth-grade spiritual weapon, and I appreciate that very much. If you can also give me a treasure that can help someone improve their constitution, then I would be even more grateful to you for your magnanimity.
Wuhlricht smiled wryly, and said to Severin, “I don’t have something like that right now, unfortunately, but i do know that something like that exists, and I also know where we can find it.”
“Really?” When Severin heard that, his eyes lit up instantly and he said to Wuhlricht, “Where is it? Tell me and I’ll look for it!”
“Hehe, don’t bother. It’ll be a waste of time if you do, since you’re already on a very tight schedule. How will you complete the task that I entrusted to you if you spend your time on that treasure?” Wuhlricht chuckled and said to Severin, “I can help you find it. When you bring all twelve hall masters to meet me a year from now, you can bring your wife along too. I’ll give you the treasure then!”
“Thank you, sir! You’ve been too kind! I don’t know how I’m supposed to repay you!” Severin was so excited that he was lost for words on how to thank the other party and could only cup his hands in a gesture of respect.
After hearing that, Wuhlricht said, “Don’t fret. You’ll get the chance to repay me. How about you agree to help me with one of my requests? I’ll let you know when to do it, and you must comply with it at all costs. Does that sound fair?”
