Chapter 13

When I arrived with Master Nix, Master Yun is having a break. He is drinking tea as usual as he looks at the Ocean.

"Hello there my disciple, can you introduce me to that friend that you brought in." Master said as he looks at me and Master Nix

"Master Yun, this is Master Nix. And Master Nix, This is Master Yun." I introduced them to each other as I summon two chairs for us to sit at.

"Wait a minute, so you're telling me that you already have a master before me and you still want to have another master? How disrespectful of you to your master." Master Nix said angrily as she prepare to leave

"Calm down Nix. Why don't you have some tea." Master Yun said as he appeared infront of Master Nix with a tea

"Okay then, I will hear out what my disciple has to say about this situation. Wait, I don't even know your name yet." Master Nix said in a calm tone but I feel like she is stating at me with malicious intent.

After my pressure points have been locked with a couple of beatings from Master Yun and some angry lessons with Master Nix, I was able to explain my side of things.

"As you can see, I want to know Magic since its similar but different to Qi Cultivation." I said as I was in a seiza position while my body feels sore since I can't heal with my Qi.

"Okay then, I know that you want to know many things but at least tell someone if you already have master." Master Nix said as she drinks tea with Master Yun

"Master Nix, are you willing to go with us now?" I asked as I look at her talking to Master Yun in a happy manner

"Okay then, your Master Yun already told me how strong you are, however what I don't understand is why you want to learn magic. I mean you are already on your way to being immortal." Master Nix said with a sigh

"I just really want to know how. I have many things I can do with Qi, however there are many things, weapons and artifacts that needs Mana. Not only that, but I also want to build an Empire so there is no way that Magic will not be present in it." I said with full confidence since that is what I am really think when I asked Master Nix to teach me.

"Alright then, I will be coming with you. However, I want you to properly listen to my lessons without neglecting your cultivation." Master Nix said with a small smile in her face

"Yes Master Nix! I will certainly listen well. Plus, my cultivation is currently in bottleneck so I am only absorbing Qi as of now." I said as I grinned

After my Pressure Points have been released,Master Yun and Master Nix hit it up well. They became close friends talking till dinner eversince I left to get some more tea. They are talking to each other freely and calmly. Since they have similar experiences they have many things to talk about.

"Okay Sam, your first challenge from me is this. I need you to be able to sense and grasp Mana in the span of the time that we are docked here. If you are able to accomplish my challenge, I will build a Mana Spring for you." Master Nix challenged me when we were going to sleep.

Days past by and I can't still grasp mana. Master Nix told me that feeling mana for the first time is like trying to hold water or sand. You can feel bits and pieces of mana, however it will immediately slip away in your fingers. Master word were correct, I can feel some kind of energy that is different from Qi.

Mana is like an ocean of blue energy. I can feel it in all of nature like Qi but I can't touch or absorb it. I felt agitated since I was able to feel the Mana in the 3rd day of my meditating, but I kept trying to grasp and absorb it but I failed.

Walking to the Treasury was uneventful since I already know what to see. Of course Brock left me alone in the Treasure room like what was promised in our deal so I was able to exchange all the original treasures with the copy that I already finished creating. Since Master Yun do not have any extra space ring, I was forced to use my Build Build Fruit ability. It would have been much easier but its fine, I summoned one of the big chest that I had inside my Build storage space and store all the originals.

I put every copy to the corresponding places so that nobody would suspect that I already exchanged everything. The blade that Brock wamt is already replaced by the copy so I can't give the original blade since that will foil my plan. The reason why I set the deal to be two weeks is due to the fact that to produce a single copy requires a whole week, so I can use the Copy ability since its already been a week.

I left the room as if nothing happened. Brock went inside after I left the room to check the room which means that he still doubt me.

"You didn't take anything inside by any chance?" Brock asked with a suspicious expression

"Relax, I didn't take anything. Why are you so doubtful of me all of a sudden" I asked in a confused tone

"Well, you can't blame for being suspiciousof you. You just summoned the same ship that vanish like a bubble here in the docks. With the fact that you are the one who summon it, I can already piece it together. You somehow started a fire that day so that you can sneak to the ship and store it somehow. Which means that you possibly have a power that allow you to store things." Brock said as he tell me his assumptions

"Don't worry Captain Brock, I will hold my end of our deal. By next week, your dream sword will be yours." I said while smiling amiably

"Okay then, I trust you. However, make sure that you will not mess it up or else I am the one going to personaly hunt you." Brock threathened as he smile

"No need to threathen me Captian Brock, I am a smart man. There is no profit if I mess with a Captain like you. I am going to be a Trader and a business man so offending a major world power just for some petty profit is just plain idiotic." I reassured as we arrived at his office before we parted way

I tried finding both Jess and Rain, but sadly they were still working so I didn't disturb them.

With the whole noon at my hands, I decided to head to the biggest weapons market in the Pearl City. It was the shop named Diamond Sharp Weapons. There are all sorts of weapons raging from bows to daggers. Most of the Materials used in building weapons are Iron, Copper, and Blue Iron. Blue Iron is a metal with the hardness 1.5 times harder than normal iron. It was a common ore found in some Islands here in the Infinite Ocean.

Although they great, I was disappointed by the purity of metals. Many swords were full of impurities which was only noticable to craftsmen like me. There were many weird weapons in the shop which I used the Build Build Fruit Ability. I was able to acquire the blueprints to make gunpowder, muskets, pistols, and Cannons. Although Grandpa was a great blacksmith, all his crafts were bladed weapons. Since I used my Devil Fruit ability, I am starting to get a hold of how it goes. My brain is starting to adapt in the influx of information that was being jammed inside it so I don't get frozen in place for a long time.

Since I was browsing the weapons for a long time, a personel of the store approached me.

"Hello Sir, have you found the weapon that you are trying to find." a polite woman approached me since I declined earlier for a guide

"I have been browsing for a long time now, and I found some decent weapons. I am buying a couple of bows, blades, knives, guns, and cannons. By the way can I talk to your owner?" I said in a friendly tone to the lady as I took out my platinum card

"Yes Sir, I am going to ask the owner." The lady hurriedly ran to an office

An old dwarf walked out of the office with the lady which I was talking to earlier. All the store clerks bowed their heads to show respect to the man as he passed them. He looked at me carefully before whisphering something to the lady.
