This is the only thought that can come to Gavin's mind at this time.
As a spellcaster, he knew the power of the Eye of True Sight very well. What he just saw was definitely not some deceptive fantasy or illusion, but something involving an origin level that he could not understand or come into contact with.
So, what is this [thing] hidden under the little girl’s appearance?
Why is she making this avoidant gesture now?
Doubts filled the mage's brain. After telling the snake demon with gestures that there was nothing wrong with him, he began to observe Karl and Naia who were communicating.
"Go on, Yuge and I will definitely 'entertain' you well when we get back to the ship!"
Although he saw Gavin getting up at this time, Naiya's unreasonable behavior of directly persecuting his master still made Karl feel a little guilty, so he walked towards Naiya, planning to make a good show first no matter what.
Say it again.
"No!"
"I feel sorry for someone who has worked hard along the way without any merit. You must not treat me like this!"
Karl's threat was obviously very effective. Naia immediately rushed over and hugged his thigh, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes as if she wanted no money.
"Hard work?"
Hearing Naiya's defense, Karl couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Could it be that the things in the captain's cabin were destroyed by your hard work?"
Hearing these two words makes my ears angry.
In order to satisfy his own fishing activities, Naiya had previously fed many of the supplies prepared by Holly to the fish. If he had not inherited the mermaid's treasure house, the "Black Pearl" would still be completely destitute at this time.
"No!"
"Captain, everyone else ate the fish you caught except me. I didn't do it alone!"
"..."
"ha!?"
Carl was really angry now.
Unexpectedly, with just a casual comment, Naiya actually confessed to a new crime.
Originally, he thought that one of the fish he caught was missing from time to time because it was used by people in the kitchen, but it turned out that it was Naiya who did it. He said why even the ornamental fish he threw in the fish tank were missing.
many!
Grasping Naiya's neck, Karl hung the evil god up.
"I think it's time for us to fall in love with each other, my little Naia!"
Seeing Karl's gradually distorted expression, Naia immediately realized that she had done something stupid, so she decisively broke her neck, then ran out of Karl's hands like a loach, and rushed to Gavin in a hurry.
behind.
While pressing Gavin's back, Naiya repaired his neck, risked his last hope and said:
"Mage, this is your territory. You can't let your home turn into a tomb!"
After all, this guy just saw his own body, should he make some show of it now, right?
Sure enough, just as Naiya thought, after a short period of thinking, Gavin finally decided to be a peacemaker for a while.
"Sir, let's talk about business."
"I'm still very interested in your transaction."
Cleverly changing the subject, Gavin mentioned a transaction that he had noticed before.
Obviously it is better not to provoke the unknown great being behind you. At this time, you can no longer be the same as before. You must always pay attention to your behavior. Any small mistakes may lead to big problems for you.
The previous encounter was quickly forgotten in his mind, and Gavin returned to his previous appearance as a senior mage, sitting back in his chair with a calm expression.
"trade......"
Gavin's words immediately cooled Carl's mind.
Indeed, the purpose of this trip is to get the sword. The matter of Naia can wait until we get on the ship and talk about it slowly while the "Black Pearl" is sailing.
After giving Naia a hard look, Karl then adopted the polite attitude he had during previous interactions.
"Mr. Master, the main reason we came here this time is to find a sword."
As he spoke, Karl took out the [Siren Sword] and waved it in front of Gavin to show him the shape of the sword.
"This is a set of seven swords with the same shape. All of them have different powers inhabiting the sword body. We got the news that you are holding one of them, so we paid a sudden visit."
"A sword?"
After a cursory look at the [Siren Sword] in Carl's hand, Gavin quickly remembered what was in his treasure house. He had indeed obtained one during his explorations about four hundred to five hundred years ago.
He even took out a sword of this shape and used it when canonizing the local lord.
"Li, go to Warehouse No. 4. The password is 'Bee' and bring the things over."
"yes."
After giving the order, the snake demon next to Gavin immediately slid its tail and swam out, obviously going to get this thing.
After the snake demon left and the door closed, Gavin continued:
"During an adventure a long time ago, I did get a sword of this shape, but its ability was only to heat up and cool down, and there was nothing special about it."
"I hope you don't have too high hopes. Maybe it's a misunderstanding."
Gavin's words directly stated the sword's ability. The heating and cooling seemed to be ordinary, unlike the swords he had seen before that had such terrifying effects.
But if there is a misunderstanding, can my compass point to the wrong one?
So Karl replied with confidence:
"As long as I hold the sword in my hand, I can naturally identify the authenticity. Even if we fail to gain protection, we are lucky to be able to visit a knowledgeable mage."
After hearing Karl's words, Gavin nodded with satisfaction and then continued:
"If possible, could I tell you the purpose of collecting the swords?"
"Let me think about where to start."
After a perfunctory remark, Karl immediately pretended to be thinking.
What to do?
Should I tell this mage the truth?
After all, the stakes are high, and letting a powerful mage get the news is more likely to lead to more changes in the future.
Just as Karl was thinking, suddenly the door opened.
It didn't take long for the snake demon to return here from the treasure house, with six arms holding a wooden box steadily. It was obvious that the process went very smoothly.
"Put it on the table."
Gavin gave the order, and the snake demon immediately placed the box on the table, then opened the two small locks and lifted the lid, revealing the true appearance of the sword wrapped in silk inside.
The sword made of holy silver was as beautiful and dazzling as ever. This sword had no disguise, just lying quietly in front of Karl.
At the same time, Gavin said generously:
"You can pick it up and look at it first to identify the authenticity."
"Thank you."
Nodding to express his gratitude, Karl reached out and picked up the sword.
The moment he realized the power of this sword, Carl was dumbfounded.
This treasure named [Sword of the Brilliant One] is too foul!
