Spare Me, Great Lord! Chapter 386

Chapter 386: 386
Lu Shu studied the malfunctioning magical weapons and silently agreed with the vendor . Indeed, there were magical waves inside them, but their quality was even lower than the rusted sword he fed to his golden water .
But the vendor placed particular emphasis on a statue, “This wooden statue is still working . It brings refreshing effects upon activation…”
Even he was not very confident about its use . Which Practitioner would need such a useless function?! Lu Shu grinned, “So it’s a tin of RedBull I suppose…”
“From Li Yawen’s distress, +99…”
He hesitated for a moment, “Well, you may want to take a look at the rest?”
Until then, no one claimed to have the ability to fix these ancient magical tools . Thus, the vendor was worried too . They were neither sellable nor usable and could at most be used to trick those newbies into buying them .
It was actually a rather safe plan . Real pros would not even appreciate his garbage while rookies would not be strong enough to fight him .
The vendor was a man of honesty, though, “Bro, I don’t want to lie to you as we both share the common Chinese bloodline . To tell you the truth, I’ve never heard of anyone who can repair them . But they were indeed genuine and working magical weapons in the past . Moreover, the prices I opened are quite low…”
In this golden era of cultivation, everyone craved to upgrade their level . However, without cultivation resources, it would be a painfully slow process . One slow move would drag down one’s entire progress . Many unaffiliated Practitioners hoped to ascend to Class D in the shortest time possible so as to pick up the unwanted stuff behind pros in the remains .
When the pros went directly after the relics, the scavengers on the peripheral region were all Class D’s, which left no space for the Class E’s .

In other words, they had to be strong enough to be able to clean up behind the pros…
Lu Shu’s gaze wandered over the items at the stall . He had noticed during the vendor’s introduction that it was the palm-sized statue that caught the flying daggers interest!
He then thought, there were so many malfunctioning magical weapons scattered across the globe, discarded and despised by the Practitioners, but his golden water did not seem to discriminate at all?!
He used to think that nurturing the golden water might be unaffordable because his possessions were still usable . What if he fed his water these spoiled items? What would happen then?
Honestly speaking, it was Lu Shu’s first time to witness items capable of leeching off the power of magical weapons . He was curious about what it would finally grow into .
Did it eat chives? If yes, it would save so much trouble…
In order to groom the water into the best form possible, the water-type Class B used to pay special attention to its diet . Now, however, it was about to eat grass under its new master Lu Shu…
After careful consideration, he decided to make the purchase first . Not an expert at bargaining, he lowered his voice and asked Lu Xiaoyu for help, “Xiaoyu, cute girls like you are good at bargaining . Now’s your turn . “
In the past, Lu Xiaoyu could always get the products at lower prices…
Lu Xiaoyu gave him a nod of assurance . Bargaining lesson one, be firm!
She stared straight into the vendor’s eyes and up close, “Pack up . We are taking everything for two magical stones . “
“From Li Yawen’s distress, +666…”
Li Yawen’s face almost paled in anger . He wanted to offer a price of fifty stones, but Lu Xiaoyu had messed up his plan completely . Was it not already reasonable to sell each magical weapon for five stones? 2 stones?! Are we even talking about the same item?!

Reassessing the situation for a long moment, he uttered, “You must be kidding me, young girl . forty magical stones! Not below forty!”
Lu Xiaoyu was in deep thought, “three stones . Is three stones okay?”
Li Yawen almost choked in shock, are you really listening to me?!
“Not below forty!” Li Yawen was holding his ground firmly .
“Thirty . It cannot be more,” Lu Xiaoyu was still calm .
Although not up to his expectations, the sudden jump from three to thirty still gave him a rewarding feeling…
Li Yawen took a second thought, “Thirty-eight . This is the lowest . Really . “
“Thirty . “
“Thirty-seven . “
“Thirty . “
“Thirty-six…”
“Let’s go,” pulling at Lu Shu’s hand, Lu Xiaoyu was leaving .
On the other hand, Li Yawen was in desperate need of cultivation resources . He recalled a lesson his father once taught him, sometimes one must learn to swallow his pride in this society…
“Don’t! Is thirty-five okay? Take everything with thirty-five stones!”
“From Li Yawen’s distress, +777!”
Satisfied, Lu Shu took out thirty-five stones and left at once . His anticipation was set at fifty, but Lu Xiaoyu was impressively helpful .
Of course, there was a certain level of luck involved as well, as Li Yawen was in a rush to get rid of those items in exchange for resources .
With high expectations, Lu Shu went back with a parcel of scraps . How was it his business whether Li Yixiao was doing well with his magical stones…
Finally able to take a step closer to lifting the seal on his killer gourd, Lu Shu’s mind was filled with the fantasies regarding his deity-slaying flying dagger! From his point of view, the dagger must have been suppressed! Else, it would not have been so unreliable!
Just imagine, a “turn around baby” would get his dagger to kill whoever he wanted to on the battlefield . How terrific! Lu Shu’s ego was inflating rapidly in his wonderful daydream .
After he returned to the safe house, Lu Shu decided to cast aside the matter of his deity-slaying dagger first . The best must be left for the last!
Upon engulfing the nine magical scraps, the golden water actually expanded another one third in size at a visible rate! Just a while ago, it was only as big as an electric rice cooker .
After that, with all meticulousness, Lu Shu placed the statue on the table . His eyes were filled with excitement, “Look carefully!”
Then, he gently retrieved his gourd from the Seal of Lands . Instantly, a white flash cut through the air, almost piercing the atmosphere apart!
Its speed was stunningly much faster than Lu Shu’s Concealed Arrow and Corpsedog!
Before he could react, the flash had returned to the gourd after a clack .
And the statue on the table had been split into two…
Holding his breath, Lu Shu awaited further changes . But nothing else happened .
“That’s it?” Lu Shu was in shock, “That’s it?!”
He stared at the split statue in disbelief . So earlier you were simply excited about breaking it apart?!
Then could you not just do it there? It would have saved me the trouble of buying it!
Just how bloody unreliable are you? Could you please be serious for once?!
Frustrated, Lu Shu started shaking the gourd violently, “Come out! You hear me? I’m going to teach you a lesson today, titled ‘How To Be A Good Dagger 101’!”
But the dagger did not make a second appearance . Indeed, it was to blame…
In fact, so long as it was hiding inside, Lu Shu was helpless too, except for giving the dagger some motion sickness inside the gourd…

Swindle
—A Celebration of all things chess... Shounen Sports–manga Style. Anasthese is the current reigning World Champion for the Junior Chess Female Division. For years, she's wanted nothing more than to beat the Male Division Champion, Rei. These two are considered prodigies way ahead of their age; none of their peers even come close to holding a candle against them. But be that as it may, Anasthese too, cannot hold a candle to Rei... She's never beaten Rei once he's serious. Anasthese has always considered Rei the best of her generation. It's her lifelong goal to beat and surpass him. That's why, when Rei's cancer had become fatal after their 3rd year running, Anasthese took it hard. Rei will die, with her never having beaten him, not even once. Things take an unexpected turn when Rei reveals that he is far from the "invincible" player Anasthese envisions him to be. Even he has someome he could never beat, not even if his life depended on it... a fellow apprentice who studied with him under GM Amane. A guy so-called "Net". This enrages Anasthese. A person stronger than Rei should not exist. Because if he did, then what has all her efforts for the past years been for? And if this Net "does" exist, why doesn't he challenge Rei for the title? Rei tells her it's not that simple... Net's playstyle is void. It's an enigma. It's chess that should not exist, and should physically not be possible to play. It goes against all logic, and it's power is not something that can be measured in numbers. It's something that would "absolutely not work" in a professional setting. Anasthese attends Rei's funeral as a last rite before setting off for Japan, bound towards the disintegrating Futenma Shintenkan Highschool chessclub, of which there are only two members left: Mukuro and Net. She has to see it with her own eyes, a playstyle that Rei lost to... And as Anasthese stays for the long-term, various misadventures are started at Futenma High, including rebuildung the club, Anasthese's "Royal Guards" (four girls dedicated to serving Anasthese and helping challenge Rei) coming to take her back to America, and unexpected guests gracing the local Sports Meet chess scene. From a guy who can only play well everytime money's involved, to a girl who plays on a weird "Magical Girls vs Orcs" chess set, get introduced to the quirky playstyles that make chess wonderful. (Disclaimer: I am not a chess pro, I'm only 1400. Expect me to have no idea what I'm talking about at certain times...)
