Chapter 1243: Tears of Joy!

Grant had no choice but to give in to his repeated requests. Even though Clarkson had ordered him to find out about the woman, the woman seemed to have no interest in replying to him at all.

If not for the invisible, powerful energy permeating every corner of the store, he would have tried to force out an answer.

Grant was confident that what he was seeing in front of her was a disguise. But he didn't dare to see through the disguise of the woman for the same reason, or he would have already found out why his bloodline trembled when he looked at her.

Seeing the man stop, the grin on Katrina's face turned even wider. While Aakesh didn't interfere in their conversation as he was busy with a new customer.

Since Grant could neither use force nor the woman seemed interested in answering, he decided to use greed to his advantage.

"Why don't you tell me about yourself, and I will give you what you wish for," Grant told Katrina.

His cultivation was Sacred Emperor. It wasn't the peak of the Sacred Dimension, but it was still at the top level, and his power wasn't weak.

Katrina only had Sacred King level cultivation, so he didn't lie when he said that he would fulfill her wish.

"I am listening," Katrina immediately responded, finally opening her mouth to utter any words.

Grant heaved a relieved sigh in his heart since if he failed to gather any information before Clarkson returned, the consequences would be too dire for him.

Surjans were a battle loving race as well as their hierarchy was inviolable. Clarkson had hundreds of siblings in his generation with some even of higher cultivation, but once he was acknowledged by his ancestor, he immediately became the leader of his generation, and other siblings of his are following him peacefully without even a squeak of betrayal.

Grant himself was one of Clarkson's grand uncles, but as Clarkson's status had become higher after getting acknowledged, Grant had become his bodyguard and had no choice but to follow him.

"What do you want?" Grant asked. He was confident that whatever Katrina would ask, he would be able to fulfill it.

A wide smile spread across Katrina's face, and it suddenly gave rise to a bad feeling in Grant's heart.

"What about one million ultimate Sacred stones?" Katrina innocently asked, but the wide, sly smile on her face gave her away.

Grant almost choked on his words when he heard Katrina's demand. Despite that, he didn't refuse Katrina.

One million ultimate stones was a large amount, but it was something he could take out easily, so he agreed to pay that.

"I will pay you that, but you need to take an oath that you won't lie," Grant said.

There were ways to know whether the other side was lying or not, but for that, he would need to use energy, and it gave rise to an ominous feeling in his heart, so he decided to ask Katrina to take an oath.

"You want to be my guarantor?" Katrina requested Aakesh, who had just gotten free from the customer.

Grant agreed with Katrina's proposal since the store and the store owner seemed entirely mysterious, and from the terrifying energy signature, there was no need for the other party to take advantage of him.

Aakesh simply nodded in response to Katrina's request. She smiled after seeing Aakesh agree with her.

"Instead of telling you, I will show you what you want to know," Katrina commented, and then she took off her disguise.

The next moment, a woman with devilish charm appeared in the store, causing Grant's jaw to almost drop to the ground.

"Kindeva!" Grant exclaimed in shock since he recognized the race.

Being fanatic followers of Asuras, the Surjans taught everything known about Asuras to their young children.

Since Kindeva were descended from the union of Asura and Yaksha, Surjans knew about them.

The next moment, Grant crashed to the ground, kneeling toward Katrina. The power difference between the two was wide enough to encompass everything, and yet Grant knelt in front of Katrina, not caring about his cultivation.

Even Katrina was taken aback by such a strong reaction from Aakesh.

She was already aware of what had caused the man to show such interest in knowing about her. The moment the man asked about her for the first time, she spiritually asked Aakesh, and then Aakesh told her about the connection between Surjans and Asuras.

Katrina had to request for Grant to stand up, and when he did, his eyes were full of tears of joy.

"Please forgive me, my lord, for acting that way in front of you," Grant asked for an apology with a respectful bow.

The reaction from Grant was even stronger than the one from Hell, which was a huge surprise to Katrina.

"My lord, here," Grant spoke and handed over a space ring to Katrina.

Katrina wanted to refuse the ring as she was overwhelmed by the reaction from Grant, but the large amount won over her hesitation, and she took the space ring.

The next moment, Katrina was dumbfounded when she sensed the content inside the space ring.

She had asked for a million ultimate Sacred stones since she wanted a beast for herself and Autumn, but the amount inside the space ring was severalfold that.

There were not only around a hundred million ultimate Sacred stones but there were also many valuable materials with a value even more than the stones.

Katrina looked angrily at Aakesh and then returned the space ring to Grant.

·??m Aakesh was surprised by the sudden reaction from Katrina and then he looked inside the space ring. He could only smile, as the reason for her anger was due to her behavioral change inside the store. If it was outside the store, she could take the total amount, but since Aakesh was the guarantor, she couldn't take that many resources as it would be insulting to Aakesh.

"You only need to pay the sum I asked for," Katrina remarked, pushing the ring back.

Grant didn't want to take the ring back since it was all he could offer but the repeated push from Katrina forced him to take it.
