The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1548

Chapter 1548: Artifact Negotiations

The Clan Leader laughed at the earnest expression on Karl’s face, as well as the confirmation in Dana’s grimace.

"So, you wish to get wealthy by proxy, setting up the Clan with a secret skill that will let us gain an immeasurable edge in the sale of trade goods?

What do you want in exchange?"

"I am a reasonable man. I won’t ask for more than a fair tithe. Ten percent."

The Clan Leader stared at him, and Karl stared back.

"Right, Beast Master, intimidation doesn’t work. Not enough functional brain cells for self-protection instincts."

"I filled that section with cupcake recipes and Runic languages." Karl agreed.

The Clan Leader gave him a genuine smile, while the Elders took a discrete step away from him.

"Alright, come inside, and we can talk. Bring your wife, but leave the badger in her separate space. I will not have her loose in my house."

Rae laughed as Cara grumbled. There was a lot of good stuff to examine in this house.

Stuff she had never seen before.

And that was precisely why the Clan Leader had banned her from the building. As a Supreme Ranked being, she didn’t particularly concern herself with most things going on around the Clan.

That was for the Elders.

But this was her personal residence for many thousands of years, and she was not going to let the badger reorganize her belongings.

She wasn’t worried about theft. She could easily enough retrieve anything that Cara took. But having to put everything back in its proper spot would be a nightmare.

They all sat on cushions around a low table.

"So, start from the beginning. I know that you were a branch leader for the Darklight Host. You can’t be entirely incapable of leading. So, why are you willing to sell such a valuable skill?"

Well, if she wasn’t going to pretend that his reason was a good enough one, Karl knew that he was going to have to go into a bit more detail.

"I could keep it with me until I’ve grown to near peak Immortal, then start a Sect of my own. That is true.

But it also made a huge spectacle when it appeared, so if I do nothing, everyone will know that I’m holding on to an Artifact Grade skill, but very few will know what it does.

That’s not a great position to be in.

Now, I can use the skill, so I’m not actually losing out by selling it in the short term. I have it, the Clan will have it.

You are Supreme, I am a new Immortal. If the skill becomes public, and generates envy, it comes back to you, not me. You’ve got the power and the leadership position to keep things stable.

So, I want to sell this to you, to better the Clan."
