"Mr. Cole, you praise me too much. I bet there are many seniors out there who could have created a far better origin card for Madam Asong than I." I replied humbly.
"No, no, master Wyatt, you are selling yourself short. Trust me, none of the card creationists came up with something so unimaginable." To find a card creationist who could meet Asong's unreasonable demand Cole visited various famous card creationists, but all they could come up with was a shield-type item origin card or something similar for Asong's bivalve shell fate ingredient.
"Yes, Wyatt. Cole is not exaggerating, I have visited those so-called diamond grade card creationists with him, their ideas for my origin card were nothing close to what you have achieved. I may have not thanked you enough for my origin card but believe me you don't know how much this card means to me." Asong spoke supporting Cole's words. As she was right next to Cole when the card creations pitched their ideas for her origin card.
"Well, not that I mind but I think you never thanked me for creating an awesome origin card for you," I said trying to recall if Asong had thanked me but stopped feeling that even if she did she definitely didn't do it properly otherwise I would have remembered her thanking for creating her an amazing origin card.
"No way, I did thank you… I guess." Asong realized that she wasn't clear whether she had thanked the card creationist who had helped her create her origin card. She was so preoccupied with info of her new origin card that she forget what she did and say when she got her hands on her new origin card. Embarrassed Asong added, "I know this is late but I am really grateful for your help in creating my origin card. Thank you."
"It doesn't matter after all you are paying for my help." As long as I get paid for the services I provided I don't really care if Asong thanked me or not.
"Speaking of Payment, how much do I owe you." Since her origin card was special paying my usual rates won't cut it so Asong asked me to give her a number.
"Your card is a masterpiece and is priceless for me, so how about we not sully it by trying to put a price tag on it. In return for my help, how about you help me get some rare and regulated card ingredients." with the southern royal family backing me I didn't lack money, what I lacked was access to rare and highly regulated card ingredients. But Asong seemed to have free access to many rare card ingredients, therefore I planned to have her get me the rare card ingredients I would need in the future as the payment for me helping her create an awesome origin card.
"Okay, I can get you the ingredients you need but you got to be specific with the numbers." Asong did not mind paying with rare ingredients because she felt that putting these rare ingredients to use would be better than letting them dust in the government treasury. But that did not mean that she was willing to give free access to a high schooler card creationist to shop in the government treasury. Therefore, she asked the boy to tell her how many rare ingredients would be enough to pay for the services he provided.
"If you ask me, then the origin card I created for you is priceless. You apparently don't seem to agree with me so please go ahead and quote how much you think your origin card is worth to you." By claiming that the origin card I created for Asong was priceless I was basically saying that I wanted access to all the rare ingredients in the government treasury. But I know better than to hold my breath on it because Asong was never going to agree to something like that. Hence I asked Asong to quote a price that she felt would be the right value for her origin card.
"Y-you, aren't you being a little too greedy?" Asong sighed hearing the other party's demand.
"Greedy? How am I being greedy? Didn't I let you decide what you want to pay me with?" I complained.
"Asong, you have to put aside righteousness when you talk to this shameless fellow. He dared to charge me two devil ingredients to create two origin cards for my soldiers. If you continue to be humble and entertain him, he will empty the entire government treasury and you won't even know what hit you." Anna advised her friend.
"Two devil ingredients for creating two origin cards? I guess I am in the wrong business." Cole could not help but blurt out hearing that his cousin was charged two devil ingredients just to create two origin cards.
Asong along with Agatha and Aba looked at me in disbelief. Because they knew that two devil ingredients could feed an entire district for ten whole years. Only a soulless profiteer could quote such a sky-high price just to create two origin cards and only a world-class prodigal daughter would be willing to pay that sky-high price for creation of two origin cards. Everyone in the room looked at the profiteer and prodigal in disbelief.
"Ten A-rank Rare-grade card ingredients that is all I can pay you with. Wyatt, don't try to negotiate or else I will add an expenditure limit to it." Asong quoted a very generous price trying to show how grateful she was for her origin card.
"Fine, let us just say that I gave you the friends and family discount." I agreed to Asongs offer, 10 A-rank highly regulated rare ingredients from the government treasury wasn't a bad deal. It was a bummer that Asong had cleverly added an ingredient rank limit. Still, I could make a lot with just these ingredients.
Cole's mouth was watering hearing the fee that Asong's offered to the card creationist because as the broker who introduced her to the card creationist he was going to get a hefty commission, ten percent of what she was paying the card creationist.
