"Good...... Okay, but I'll have to look at the terms before I plan about it. ”

Galil hesitated for a moment, but finally verbally agreed to Reinado's terms.

In fact, things have come to this point, and he has no other better way, the contract signed at the beginning has clearly stipulated that except for the losses suffered during the mission, Reinado does not need to pay any compensation in other cases, and there is no obligation to help him solve the trouble.

And a warlock like him is different from an alchemy mage like Sean, he has little to do other than fighting, so the contract Reinado signed with him at the beginning was far less lenient than Sean, and even because his serious injuries have affected his combat ability, Reinado can justifiably deduct the wealth he deserves.

……

Regarding the new contract between Galil and Reinado, Sean is not interested at all, he just needs to ensure that his own interests are not damaged, as for the mood of others, and what kind of fate will it end, does it have a copper plate to do with him?

After that, things were very simple, and after Reinado sent some people to deal with the battle scene, Sean negotiated with him a little about compensation.

The four one-time alchemy props are worth two thousand gold coins, Reinado promised five thousand gold coins for mental damage, and the other party is completely responsible for the damaged walls and courtyards, and Sean doesn't even have to spend a penny.

There is also the long sword that Sean captured, although it is not of high value, but it is also a weapon used by trainee-level professionals, and it comes with a trainee-level combat skill "Linear Piercing" with a completion rate of 60%, and the market price is barely worth about 10,000 gold coins.

Because Sean did Reinaldo a great favor this time, this long sword was purchased by Reinado at a premium of 13,000 gold coins, plus the 7,000 gold coins that needed to be compensated to Sean, it was just enough to make up 20,000 yuan.

This is not a small amount of gold, and even for Reinado, who has just received a war bounty and has become extremely rich, it will take a little time to raise.

Even so, when Reinado walked out of Sean's house, he still had a smile on his face, not at all like he had just bled out.

Can he not be happy? Since the conflict with the Southern Alliance, this is the second time that the other party has lost a trainee-level professional, not to mention that it was Cagiso's cronies who died, which is simply very happy!

You must know that when Reinaldo took the initiative to find Sean eight months ago, he completely regarded the other party as a pure alchemist, and he didn't have much hope in terms of combat ability at all.

As a result, it was this alchemy mage who seemed to be weak and couldn't help but show incredible strength in the days that followed, not only killing two enemy apprentice-level professionals in a row, but even indirectly helping him solve many big troubles.

As for the gold coins? In order to win over such a powerful ally, what is it to pay a little wealth, if it weren't for the fact that the elven tribe has not had a particularly good condition, Reinado would have been eager to send a few more slaves to Sean.

Now he is extremely glad that he made the decision before, if it were not for Sean's help, maybe he would still be pressed and beaten by the Southern Alliance, maybe one day he accidentally fell into the trap of the enemy and finally died.

……

……

After seeing Reinaldo and the others away, Sean stood in the courtyard and stretched, waved his hand and used his mana to sweep the broken bricks from the ground to the door, then turned and returned to the house.

He didn't plan to use spells to repair the fence of his yard little by little, after all, the defense system of his house had nothing to do with the weak broken wall, and even if the wall was damaged, no one would be able to walk into his yard at will.

Besides, since Reinado had agreed to send someone to settle the matter, why bother? The walls made with the earth-attribute plastic energy spell are not as beautiful as those built artificially, and they are even worse in terms of solidity.

……

While studying the seized mirror in his hand, Sean slowly walked to the door of the laboratory.

Although he didn't know exactly what its abilities were, he could easily tell that this thing actually had the function of a magical item contract with a little bit of knowledge of magic items that he had barely touched the surface.

This is no small matter.

It is important to know that magical items that can be contracted with the user are quite rare at the apprentice level, not only because of the difficulty, but also because it requires a considerable amount of additional resources to make them.

This resource is conservatively estimated to be in the thousands of gold coins, even more expensive than the materials of some apprentice-level magic items themselves, and for this reason, alchemists generally rarely make such apprentice-level magic items, unless the magic item itself is extremely valuable and needs to be used to ensure that it can be used smoothly and safely in battle.

It was precisely because of this that Sean did not sell it to Reinado easily, and even he had a faint feeling that this mirror would not be much worse than it, even if it was not as good as the staff of reincarnation.

……

Pushing open the door to the lab, Sean walked over to the lab bench and pulled out a few of the tools needed to prepare the potion.

His plan was to remove the original imprints of spiritual power and soul power from the mirror first, and then slowly study it, after all, the structure of this thing was quite complicated, and he was worried that there might be some hidden hindsight in it, so it needed to be handled carefully.

A magical item like this cannot be controlled by others at will, nor can it be easily erased, and unless some special techniques are used, it will take a long time to wear off the control of the original owner just a little bit.

And this so-called special technique is actually very simple, at least one of them is really not difficult for an alchemy mage like Sean.

After digging through the nearby shelves to find a few usable ingredients, Sean began to concoct a special potion.

"Cleansing potion", that's another name for it.

With just a few drops, this potion can help the user completely destroy any imprint or contract with a control effect in the magic item, and depending on the level of the magic item and the target, the corresponding parameters of the clearing potion that need to be consumed must also be adjusted, so there is no universal clearing potion for sale on the market, and it can only be configured according to a certain magic item.

Fortunately, Sean himself is a good alchemist, and after spending a little time, he has succeeded in concocting a few small drops of transparent viscous liquid, and with the help of its power, he has completely erased all traces of the previous owner of this mirror.

……

When Sean put his own brand on it, a large amount of complicated information was instantly fed back into his mind, which was the function introduction and instructions added by the maker in advance, so that the person who obtained this magic item could quickly grasp its basic usage.

After reading this information, Sean's face suddenly showed joy.

He only now understands that the power of this mirror is far beyond his imagination, and fortunately, he did not agree when Cagiso proposed to redeem it with 50,000 gold coins before, otherwise he would have really suffered a big loss.

This mirror is called the Hidden Mirror, and it is a probationary-level magic item, and it has a total of three special prophecy abilities, although these three special abilities do not play much role in frontal combat, but the auxiliary effect is first-class and strong.

The first ability of the Hidden Mirror is called "Concealment", which is simply to continuously consume the user's xenoether, making the user and its chosen target invisible at the information level, although its effect is not as good as the talent spell used by the apprentice-level warlock who assassinated Sean before, but it is not much worse.

After receiving the effect of invisibility at the information level, as long as the target does not interfere too much with the outside world, others will usually not be aware of the existence of the user and their chosen target, unless the other party is very vigilant and can only detect clues after multiple scans.

Of course, unless the difference in strength between the target receiving this effect and the user is too large, they only need to resist this effect a little bit after being covered by "Hidden" to get out of this state.

Therefore, even if Sean wanted to use this ability to forcibly make an ordinary person disappear on the information level for a short time, it would not be possible to succeed in the operation, unless he chose to target a weak life such as a small animal or an insect to achieve such an effect.

The second ability of the Hidden Mirror is called "Secret", and it is more of a long-standing passive effect than a somewhat complex "Concealment", although simple, but extremely useful.

When the owner of the Mirror of Concealment is probed by a prophecy ability, the power of the Secret is activated, which automatically hides information about its owner and makes the results of the Mirror unambiguous.

Unfortunately, the coverage of "secrets" is only the user, and although the content related to it will also be interfered with to a certain extent, no one can guarantee that no one will have the whims to bypass this restriction through some special methods, so as to deduce some information.

But even so, when "hidden" and "secret" are paired with each other, it is still a good helper for solo covert operations, especially with the help of the third ability "mirror", which makes it even more invincible.

The "Mirror" is the core ability of the Hidden Mirror, and under the reflection of the "Mirror", all the places perceived by the owner will be included in the "Mirror" record and become part of the map.

In addition to recording the terrain and environment, the user can also incorporate the collected target breath into the monitoring of the "mirror", and the more the user injects xenoether, the farther the monitoring range of the "mirror" will be, and the greater the consumption.

The specific effect of this ability is to display a map from above, when the user injects xenomorphs into it, it will continuously scan the surroundings with itself as the center, and mark the recorded objects on the map, and even support custom modes, you can change the color of the marked points themselves, give different notes, and so on.

Although he didn't know who the previous owner of the Hidden Mirror was, Sean admired the perseverance of the other party, because after obtaining the mirror, he found that the map inside included almost all the cities in the Kingdom of Connery, even the newly developed Bellock area.

After silently expressing his gratitude in his heart, Sean held the mirror up beautifully, wanting to study the subtle alchemy in it for a while.

But at this moment, he suddenly remembered Celia who was still waiting in the bedroom, and then Sean had an idea in his heart, and tried to inject some mana into the Hidden Mirror, activating the power of "Hidden".

……

……

At this moment, Celia was lying bored in bed in a daze.

A few hours ago, she had returned to bed according to Sean's orders, and although the movement outside after that made Celia a little worried, she could not disobey her master's instructions, let alone go to the window to check, and she did not even dare to get out of bed.

The conflict quickly subsided, and it wasn't long before she heard Sean's footsteps coming upstairs as Celia's memory of the slave trader who gave her to her master faded away.

However, her great master seemed to have forgotten her, and when Celia heard that the door of the laboratory next door was opened, she immediately understood that the master might not be able to come for a while.

"I'm so hungry......"

Celia stretched out her hand and gently rubbed her stomach, the expression on her face became pitiful, she was just an ordinary elf, of course, she couldn't feel uncomfortable without eating a few meals like a professional.

Despite this, the iron law of obeying all the orders of her master has long been deeply reflected in her body and soul, even if it is just a casual word of her master, Celia will never disobey.

"Huh? Something weird always feels like there's something wrong. ”

Suddenly, Celia sat up from the bed in some confusion, holding the soft feather-filled pillow in her hand, and stared at the distant door for a moment, as if she felt awkward.

But before she could study it, the feeling suddenly disappeared, and she stared blankly at the reclosed door, as if everything around her had become normal again.

……

"Ahhh......h I must have thought that the owner had come up with a hallucination...... It's so weird......"

After thinking about it for a while, Celia still didn't notice anything wrong in the room, and she buried her face in the pillow in great distress and muttered a few words in frustration.

Sean stood on the edge of the bed and watched the performance of his little maid with some amusement, and then suddenly reached out and slapped her exposed little buttocks hard, making a crisp "pop" sound.

"Whew!"

Celia reflexively jumped up from the bed, clutching her ass in fright, looking at Sean who suddenly appeared in her eyes.
