"HAHAHA, Paul's right why bother buying such stuff if we can buy cheap stuffs" Good thing we have a dumb person in this discussion if not it would've turned into a drama instead.
"Hahaha, indeed it seems I was wrong this time... my apologies lady Lisa, lady Ayesha." It seems I was too harsh on them, they are still a child and didn't properly receive education but when they reach the age of twelve they can go to the capital city of the Kingdom of Sloth the city of Habak.
"Well... let's not worry about that for the mean time because I have about sixty two thousand and fifty gold coins in total..." It seems this much good coins is still the same back in the ten thousand immortal worlds it would only last for a little while.
"What??!" All three of them, Helbert, Paul, Ayesha, and Lisa were equally surprised as all they thought that Nyx only had about a few thousand gold coins at most they thought it was in the five thousand to ten thousand gold coins.
"That is absurd young master! even me an old Knight would only have that much gold coins if I were not to spent a single penny on a whole year! But to hear you have so much gold coins..." It makes this old mans understanding about gold coins tip over the scale of being mad and a genius little boy.
"Huh..?! I thought this was only a small amount compared to what were gonna have to use in the future?" Paul asked while having a dumb look on his face.
"That is true... which is why I only have managed to reach the master level in this age and thanks to the young master, not I have officially reached the real Grand Master level" Helbert clenched his wrinkled hand and look at it and pondered for a moment, that's right if not for this young boy then I might have stayed the weak old man I was back then I owe him all this and even maybe I can take own revenge.
"Officially reached the Grand master level..? Why's that sir Helbert..? I thought you were already in that level?" Paul asked while having a confused look and same with Lisa and Ayesha they also wanted to hear why he said that he has now officially reached the Grand Master level.
"*sigh*, Listen when a swordsman reached a certain level not only his mana changes but also does his physical stature or to be precise some regain there youthful look but me... I only regained some few years but my body feels much lighter and my mana pool has expanded a lot and my absorption of mana has increased due to the young master's teachings" Helbert slightly grinned and looked at me and I know he wanted to thank me but he was embarrassed as a junior is teaching him rather than some grand old man.
"And besides you should know that gold is also a rare ore and can be used in creating certain weapons and armors but it is widely used in making gold mana gathering rooms, this is because unexpectedly golden can slowly gather mana and the mana can be absorb, but the fewer the gold the smaller the mana will be gathered in but those of the nobles and mostly royalty they have their own separate rooms made out of gold that would at least be few hundred meters and will have such abundant mana but still gold is used as currency because of this unique property it has. What's more if an Arch Mage were to put some enchantments in the golden mana gathering rooms then it's efficiency will at least be doubled or more!" Helbert said this things while having a very excited look on his face as I listened and remembered that he said mana pool.
"Whoa... so that's why gold coins are so valuable... then can't we create such rooms to further our cultivation Nyx..?!" Paul had a very good idea and didn't expect him to have catched up on the topic.
"Sigh, Paul you are so stupid..." Ayesha let out a sigh while looking at Paul.
"W-what..?! Am I wrong..? then... then what are we supposed to use gold coins for then?" Paul was dumbfounded as Ayesha scolded him and he thought that he wasn't up to the discussion.
"Listen, do you think Nyx hadn't thought of that..?" Ayesha talked to Paul in a very confident manner while also having a quick glance at me.
'Eh..? I haven't even know that mana can gather on gold... if so then a QI or rather a mana gathering array will double it's effects'
"Huh... your right, I guess I wasn't thinking enough sigh" Paul sighted and put his two arms to his waist and felt embarrassed.
"So... Nyx, what are you planning on using the gold coins with..?" Ayesha looked straight at me and locked eyes with me.
"Uh... I-I..." I haven't even think that far yet! I wanted to ask Helbert about the mana pool how did it turn into a cliche story scene where the MC would just pretend to know everything.
"I guess... I wanted to use the gold for resources first and find a suitable business to grow our money... and have Paul's idea in creating a golden mana gathering room..? I guess." I wasn't even sure of my plan yet, back then I only needed some connections and money would start flowing to me when I sell some of the pills I created or artifacts I don't want anymore but here it seems that wouldn't be possible with my power.
"Haha you guess? Young master sure is a very confident man, even saying that joke I'm sure your gonna create a*****e of some sort selling this heavenly pills right? and woth enough fame you would create a*****e to sell this rather than selling on an auction house?" Helbert caress his beard while saying some business stuffs that Nyx hardly gets but he also know this stuff back then in the ten thousand immortal worlds and back on earth.
"Haha! Sir Helbert is pretty sharp... that is exactly my plan, I will use some famous auction house to sell this pills in moderation to promote them to the people, and in time that promotion will turn into reputation and will hire some alchemist to pretend they were the ones supplying it to us... but instead we'll be using their tittle to our advantage to get the people's attention.
"Impeccable... even I didn't think that far young master, it seems well have to follow your plan and just support you young master. We will have your back at all times" Helbert bowed and made a knightly gesture that Nyx wasn't fond of so he was a little surprised and dumbfounded.
"Exactly!" Paul made a like gesture with his thumb and grinned towards Nyx.
"Yeah... because if it weren't for you then we wouldn't have such an opportunity to know such powers existed Nyx... thank you, and even granting us the privileged to have access to this power and even letting us share your treasured pills..." Ayesha was very humble and almost had a crying expression while thanking me.
"Yea... yeah, if-if it weren't for you Nyx then... then I would have probably-" Lisa halted talking when her stomach grumbled and the five of us remember that no matter how powerful we get you cannot forget to have a full stomach before going to war.
*Grumble*
*Growl*
Lisa blushed as Nyx, Ayesha, Paul and Helbert laughed at her but Nyx took this chance to thank Lisa.
"Lisa... thank you" That's right if not for Lisa then I wouldn't have meet such good people, it seems that I was right. Back then no matter how I threatened some people they will still stay loyal to their boss even if their lives were at stake
Maybe it was because of this, the precious bonds they created that they made such a strong sense of loyalty and even sacrificing their own lives for others.
Lisa blushed and heard Nyx thanking her, but she was confused why Nyx thanked her but Helbert seemed to have known the reason at nodded at her so she just also nodded to Nyx while having her face looking down while holding her stomach.
The rest of them finally finished their small talk and sister Maria called them for dinner while Nyx had finished his meal he was watching how this family he created using the bonds of friendship was made, he couldn't help but tear up even Helbert found it happy as he can now finally protect kids again and not lose them like his grandchildren.
After a day they continued cultivating digesting the heavenly pills Nyx created and each of them managed to reached the peak of the body refining realm and stepped into the QI gathering realm but Helbert already was at the peak of QI gathering realm and soon stepped into QI condensing realm.
