Darius Supreme Chapter 243
Advertisement
Darius smiled softly. "Why don't you first tell me the appraised price and we'll see what to do?"
Kilobar observed Darius and sighed. He was an appraiser and one thing they required first and foremost was the ability to observe. Only a truly observant person could become a highly qualified appraiser.
Kilobar understood from Darius' demeanor and tone that the fellow must already be aware of the true value of these items, so he was able to remain utterly unmoved.
Unless he had already appraised them elsewhere, in which case he would have simply presented the certified appraisal, Darius must be aware of the production of these things... or even more shocking, he had made them himself!
This made Kilobar cautious as he didn't know who exactly this talented young Adept was and who stood behind him, so he had to absolutely tread carefully. It didn't matter that he was currently in Elysium's City of Divinity or if he had been on any other continent or city, power was power.
He wasn't foolish enough to swallow the rubbish the Gods fed that all men were equal. If an Adept lost their temper today and went on a slaughter, countless civilians would die before a God's Avatar could even begin to descend.
Once someone's life was lost, there was no getting it back. As such, Kilobar always shook his head when he saw certain citizens talk to various awakened fellows like they were equals.
But that was his own philosophy anyway. Focusing on the matter at hand, Kilobar picked up the Short Warp scrolls and held them up.
"These teleportation scrolls can carry up to 5 people anywhere between a minimum distance of 20 to 25 kilometers. As far as I can tell, its quality has reached perfection, meaning that there would be no delay, no spatial interference, and especially no spatial backlash."

The clerk who heard this shivered. The effects of this were too shocking, as most scrolls of such a nature had many side effects and problems that could even lead to death.
Darius was really lucky he had the benefit of Transmutation and the System Targeting. Without them, his antics of doing blink-leap or repeated teleportation would not be so pleasant.
If it was so simple to use scrolls to warp about all over the place, why would the rich bother to travel in carriages? Just buy a bunch of Warp scrolls and use them.
It wasn't like such items were scarce or hard to get. Even in Listo, Darius could have easily bought a few if he wanted to. However, he had not seen the need with his ability in play.
A wise move.
"Unfortunately, the longest distance scrolls of this tier can take a person is known to be 5 kilometers. Since yours is practically 5 times that, the base value climbs by a factor of five. Adding on the other features, the value is further multiplied by a factor of 6.9 times according to the valuation guideline of our Appraisers Guild."
Kilobar continued. "The base value of a 5km scroll is 30 Dius. Multiplied by 5 makes your scrolls value based on length 150 Dius. With the multiplication for the various factors at 6.9, the final value of your item is 1,035 Dius."
Despite the horrifying number he just quote, Kilobar went on. "If you sell them to us, we are willing to buy it 50% higher than this cost."
Darius simply maintained his soft smile and gestured for Kilobar to continue. The C-Rank appraiser took a deep breath before doing just that.
He held up the Scrolls of Awakening next. "These Scrolls of Awakening are used to awaken magic in a target. They are of Fallon make, meant for the awakening of mana and elemental talent, but can be used across all continents power sub-systems."

This revelation did not surprise Darius, but it horrified the clerk. It was something Darius had learned from one of the books, whose title he had managed to correctly guess, explain that each continent of Faust - apart from being severely isolated and having different cultures/origins - had unique sub-systems of the general laws of power in Faust.
For example, the Pan continent with Immortals used Qi instead of Mana for those who Awakened and use Internal Force with unique abilities for those who Sparked and called them Martial Artists.
Houto also had a system called Ki for its Awakened who were either called Exorcists or Sorcerers depending on their moral alignment, and a strange energy called Prana for those who Sparked and became either Samurai, Ninja, or Warriors.
Each system was still using the same general elements, like the Amateur --> Grandmaster stages and Life Level, which could also be called Cultivation level or Power level on other continents, and a general source of energy to power their skills/spells, whether it was the typical mana, Qi or whatever else.
However, because of these divisions, what worked in one area would not work on another unless it was specifically factored in. As the highest possible quality product of the same thing, Darius' scrolls and potions did not have this limitation, which was a huge deal.
"Also, these scrolls allow a person to perfectly awaken with any five elements or principles of their choice within each system. There is no chance of failure upon usage, and the elements can be of any grade, including the illusive Order and Chaos."
Kilobar smacked his lips. "To be honest, I am almost terrified by the utility of this item and would very much not like to value it, but my job demands it."
"A basic scroll like this that can awaken someone within the Elysium system and grant a person Faith energy to begin their journey as a priest or divine receptacle is valued at 300 Dius, and that is for only one random element. Those that can give specific elements to the Faith energy are worth 600 Dius."
"Those that give out more than one element have their value increased by the number of total elements they grant, in your case it would be a factor of 5. Then, for other factors like the perfect awakening chance, the cross-continental utility, the option of totally free choice, and the array of all known elements to choose from is, by the valuation guideline of the Appraisers Guild, multiplies it by a factor of 23.6."
"The base value is 600 Dius, multiplied by 5 is 3,000 Dius, further multiplied by 23.6 gives you a final price of 70,800 Dius."

So What If I'm Trash? Who Needs Cultivation?!
Qing Shan Long. They say he isn't human. An escaped experiment from some government facility, a reincarnation of a saint, a freakish superhuman. Whatever he was one thing was clear. Be it Music, Martial Arts, Science, whatever he does he excels. He was a whimsical man. A great man. A man who craving for knowledge and excitement knows no bounds, whose collection of books and personal library would even make Alexander the Great green with envy. He donated to all manners of charities and funded many projects for helping the poor and disabled. A self made man who single handedly founded one of the largest corporations in the world, Wen Qu Technologies, whose influences reach from vast fields of expertise. From objects of war such as the newest aircrafts, droids, and body armor; to life saving medicine and vaccines; to even the mundane such as video games and the fast food industry. A legendary example of determination and hard work. He was in his car being driven to a business meeting to disclose a deal that would help ensure the country could have access to clean energy and help reduce the pollution that has been plaguing his homeland for the past millenia when he was assassinated and woke up in a strange new world. How will Qing Shan deal with his new environment where the strong suppresses the weak? From the top of the world he suddenly finds himself free falling to rock bottom. Unable to cultivate, a weak body, and all but disowned by his family. (For those who read comics and watch cartoons, imagine him as being Tony Stark, Richard Reeds, Jimmy Neutron, etc level of 'Genius'. ) My own spin on some familar tropes. Another reincarnation into another world story. The MC will take over the body of someone with a trash body that can't cultivate and will be hated and neglected by his family. Pretty typical so far right? Except there won't be some amazing miracle to heal our MC, there isn't some magical grandpa to teach him some OP thing which only his trash body can use, there isn't a hidden op bloodline, and he is not from a super amazing assassin clan or genius doctor. He isn't the chosen one, he's just a guy trying his best to make something with a crap situation. First attempt at a wuxia type story! I like playing with common tropes, maybe adding a twist, to playing it straight as a classic. I have absolutely no idea where this is going to take me but please do give your input and I'll do my best so that everyone has a say in where our journey will go. I'll admit the only knowledge I have of chinese history and ancient society is from reading light novels translated to english and some old dramas, so if I make some social passe just take it as because this is another world, not exactly an AU where magic and stuff actually exist. I'm also not actually Chinese and will basically using google to help me with names and other such, if I make a mistake please let me know! (Even if you don't like the story or couldn't bare to get past chapter 1 please leave a comment so I can find out where to improve, thank you!)
