Chapter 339: Responsibilities Part3
“You don’t have to tell me. I won’t.” Tang Yue then looked at Xander, her lips curving upwards. “And may I know the reason for your visit, your highness?”
“Heh. Don’t play dumb sweetheart. Didn’t you want me to come here by openly unveiling all these things?”
Tang Yue chuckled. She could indeed never pull wool over this man’s eyes.
She had indeed called Xander but she never called Xavier, but since he was a capable Rune Master she also didn’t ask him to leave.
“To be honest, I need all of your help.” She then turned towards Miller and spoke to him first.
“Master, I am planning to prepare three sets of spirit weapons.”
“I know that you are unwell right now, but I have the confidence to do it myself.”
“I want to at least try.”
Miller nodded. He didn’t know why Tang Yue was in such a hurry but he knew that she was a very astute person and she wouldn’t do this if she didn’t have a plan.
“Ok child. Do as you please. You already know all the basics.”
“Now it’s up to you and how well you can execute all the steps together.”
Tang Yue nodded obediently. She then directly came to the main point.
“I obtained all these materials from the labyrinth while I was inside the worm’s stomach.”
“I want all of your help in determining which materials can be added to the Kirrion ores in order to augment it and which cannot.”
“I want to make the best possible version of the spirit armors and weapons that I can from these materials.”
Xander did not say anything and simply nodded.
Both he and Miller had already walked over to the pile of treasures and were picking out different materials and analyzing them.
Xavier, however, brought up a point of his own.
“Cough. Cough. Sister-in-law, I am going to be needing some payments for this service.”
He awkwardly scratched his head, shamelessness written all over his face.
Tang Yue had already thought about this point.
She didn’t reject his request and was about to respond to him when Xander overtook her responded in her stead.
“No need.” The man simply ended the conversation in two words.
Xavier’s jaw almost dropped on the ground.
Bros before hoes! Damn it! You heartless stupid brother!
He inwardly lamented his pathetic plight and also walked over to the treasure pile, but with a long face.
Tang Yue chuckled and generously eased the poor man’s concerns. “Don’t worry. I am sure that you will be satisfied with the returns.”
“I already told you guys that I will be preparing three sets. One is for me while the other three is for you guys.”
“Woohoo! Sister-in-law is the best!” Xavier’s attitude instantly took a 180 degree turn and the man now inspected the various items much more energetically.
Xander, however, suddenly paused. “You earlier said three, but now you changed it to four. Who is the last one for?”
Bingo! He had hit the nail on its head.
“Umm… Umm…” Tang Yue started sweating.
She had been thinking about too many things and had let this slip inadvertently.
And of course, the calculative cunning devil caught the small mistake immediately!
“Umm… The last one is for my Master.” She smiled weakly and replied, hoping that her Master wouldn’t give her away.
Though Miller was busily inspecting the materials, he still heard her remark and turned around to glance at her for a moment, before going back to his work.
He had no intention of involving himself in whatever was going on.
Tang Yue sighed in relief after seeing his reactions. It looked like her lie was safe.
The devil on the other hand was not satisfied with her answer in the least.
He knew exactly who it was for and what she was trying to hide.
But the man simply chuckled. “Is that so…?”
He silently went back to what he was doing and analyzed all the materials thoroughly.
Some of them, he hadn’t even seen before.
Tang Yue gulped and also joined the three.
For the rest of the night, they discussed with each other various possibilities and came up with several theories.
The more they talked about the different ratios, the more things became clearer to her.
Tang Yue was glad that she had involved these guys in her personal project.
She might have the talent to forge spirit weapons but she still lacked the experience to thoroughly gauge all the material’s properties and determine the best combination.
This went on for a couple of days straight when the group finally agreed on a preliminary list.
“I am sure this will work out child. Cough. Cough. I will go back and take some rest now.” Miller patter her and left.
“Thanks, Master.” Tang Yue nodded.
Xander as well left shortly after him, throwing a mysterious wordless glance at Tang Yue.
Xavier, on the other hand, looked like he had more things to say but when Xander left, he dragged the other elf also with him very much against his wishes.
He even fished out a couple of gems that Xavier had pocketed secretly and carefully hidden within his robe and threw them back onto the pile.
“You are the worst, damn it! It was just a couple of gems. Why are you guys such bad bullies!”
Tang Yue could hear the elf’s screams as he was mercilessly kicked outside of the Crown’s quarters.
Xander, then, quickly set up a formation isolating them from the rest of the royal palace.
He knew that both Tang Yue and he would be extremely busy over the next few days, doing something which required one hundred percent of their attention.
So he carefully fortified their living space using several high-grade runes, that he had coincidentally robbed from poor Xavier.
The man then nodded at her, as he crossed her again while going back to his chamber.
“Good luck.” His cold voice sounded unusually warm and gentle.
