《Rise My Elementals! 》Chapter 364: Another investment from Madam Silva
Advertisement
It didn't take that long for Leo and the others to find Madam Silva.
The moment they found Madam Silva, she was currently very busy in handling all the plan procedures in preparation to leave Silver Kingdom.
The Sword and Magic have already planned this from the beginning of this war, so it wasn't surprising for Leo to see them preparing to leave Silver Kingdom. In fact, what he was rather surprised about was Madam Silva actually decided to still leave one branch of Sword and Magic in Heart City. It would be managed by Evangelion and Clydesdale. Though it was very clear to see that Evangelion and Clydesdale were purposely assigned such a position in order to protect Madam Silva's disciple, Angel.
Aside from that, this branch of Sword and Magic also serves as Angel's forces in the Silver Kingdom, so that she would still be able to easily grow fast compared to the others as she has the support of Sword and Magic.
But the main purpose of this was very clear; Madam Silva doesn't want Angel to compete unfairly against Leo's other women. If all the Sword and Magic really leave Silver Kingdom, then Angel would be left alone, with no one to rely on, as she fights for a higher position in Leo's heart.
It was very obvious that Madam Silva had misunderstood Leo, thinking that he was similar to those males who also have a harem of their own.
For Leo, there was no one above the others, since Cassandra and the others were all equal in his eyes.
Because Madam Silva was still busy, Leo and the others could only choose to wait at the side until she was done.
It was only after more than an hour had passed that Madam Silva took Leo and the others inside a tent as she finally has some free time to talk.
"Are you perhaps here to claim your reward?" Madam Silva asked before sitting on her chair as she motioned for Leo to sit on the chair opposite to her.
"That's only half of the reason why I'm here," Leo replied with a smile as he walked towards the chair and soon sat on it.
"I'll definitely give you your reward soon, but as of now I still don't have the time to process the paper works to give you the Bronze Sword." Madam Silva shook her head to express her helplessness. The Bronze Sword she was talking about was the lowest level of VIP on Sword and Magic. There are a total of 5 levels of VIP, which is the lowest kind is the Bronze Sword, then followed after by Silver Sword, Gold Sword, Platinum Sword, and the Diamond Sword, each allowing the person who has them various sorts of authority in the Sword and Magic as their ally. As for Leo's Bronze Sword, it only gives him and his men the basic authority which is they can use the branches of Sword and Magic as their temporary outpost and also allow them to accept Bronze level missions, specifically basic level missions, that were handed to the Sword and Magic.

"Since it's like that, then I guess I don't have any choice but to wait," Leo expressed that he has no problem with that.
"Then let's begin talking about that other half of the reason why you are here." Madam Silva said as her face turned serious. With how familiar she was already with Leo, she already knew that he would only come to visit her either because he needs something of her or has something to give to her.
"I would like to sell you this," Leo said as he took out one Chaos stone inside his Storage Ring.
Madam Silva was stunned for a bit before calming down a second later. She can't help remembering Elder Rain's words about Leo saying that he has disarmed the Black organization's trap at the east wall and south wall. So, this Chaos stone should be something he had gotten from there.
"How many?" Madam Silva said while clasping her hands together, a smile was slowly forming on her face.
Whoooosh!
"This many," Leo spread both of his hands to his side, quickly appearing around him were the 200 pieces of Chaos stones inside his Storage Ring. He then turned to look at Ethan and signaled him to take out the remaining Chaos stones.
Whoooosh!
Unlike Leo, who took out the Chaos stones in such a dramatic way, Ethan simply put his hand up in front of him and started piling up all the Chaos stones from his Storage Ring into a small hill.
The surrounding people who saw such a scene were struck in disbelief. They can't help stopping in their action as they looked at the piles of Chaos stones in shock.
A few of them even thought that Leo and his group were the cause of those Lesser Chaos Magic Array? Though they quickly shook their heads half a second later to dismiss such a thought as they realized that if Leo was indeed the person that caused those explosions, he would have long been hunted by everyone. After all, it had taken the lives of a lot of people, not only the civilians but also a few others from the Mischievous Blue Sword Alliance and Snow Noble Household.
Madam Silva can't help herself from smiling widely as she saw hundreds of Chaos stones in front of her. She thought, "It seems like Leo is really in dire need of money this time for him to actually take out all the Chaos stones he has gotten and not leaving any for himself."
Unbeknownst to Madam Silva, the dire need for money was only the secondary reason for Leo, as for the main reason why he chooses to sell all the Chaos stones he has gotten was simply because this was only considered as an inferior product for him. The Chaos Orbs inside the 4 Storage Rings were of the highest quality of the product, even much more higher quality than the large Chaos stones. So, there is no need for him to keep such an inferior product in his Storage Ring anymore as it would only take up some space inside his Storage Ring.

"How many Chaos stones are there?" Madam Silva asked while pointing at the piles of Chaos stones. She trusts that Leo wouldn't lie to her, that's why she didn't bother spreading her Magic power to determine the exact amount of Chaos stones.
"400 pieces!" Leo replied with a mischievous smile on his face.
Madam Silva nodded her head as she began calculating in her mind. A minute and a half later, she said, "I'll give you 5 million gold coins for all of them."
Ethan, Edward, and Sele were immediately dumbfounded the moment they heard Madam Silva's price for buying 400 pieces of Chaos stones.
These were only Chaos stones, the lowest of quality on top of that too. So how is it worth 5 million gold coins?!
The price of Chaos stones in the market is depending on their size, specifically 1,000 gold coins for the small Chaos stones, which is what Leo has right now, 5,000 for the medium Chaos stones, and 10,000 for the large Chaos stones.
Unlike the Mana stones which have various qualities, specifically sky-blue, blue, and dark-blue, the Chaos stones only have one kind of quality, and what separates its price is only its different size, which is also what determines the amount of Chaos Mana inside a Chaos stone. Hence, the price of Chaos stones is naturally lesser compared to Mana stones.
Aside from that, Chaos stones are also a natural commodity during the war, so it's almost very common.
"Am I perhaps living in another world right now?" Ethan asked as he looked at his older brother Edward and Sele.
"Sele, pinch me, I think I'm still dreaming..." Edward keeps on pulling Sele's arms by his side.
"Okay!" Sele agreed as she didn't hesitate to pinch Edward.
"Ouch, Sele, why did you pinch me instead!" Ethan exclaimed painfully.
"Oh, sorry!" Sele apologized before pinching again.
"Sele, that's still my hand." Ethan quickly reminded Sele.
"Oh,"
"Please stop," Ethan grabbed Sele's hand to stop her from pinching his hand, "I think that we are not dreaming and this is also the same Celestial World. So, is Madam Silva stup-"
Ethan wasn't able to finish his words as his entire body received a sudden powerful killing intent from Madam Silva, causing him to tremble in fear.
Madam Silva stopped releasing her killing intent to Ethan as she then turned to look at Leo again and said, "I assumed you already understand why I'm pricing it 5 million gold coins, right?"
"Yes," Leo nodded his head, "And I don't have any problems with that."
Madam Silva smiled before grabbing a piece of paper and pen from her Storage Ring. She then wrote something before calling Evangelion.
"Yes, Madam Silva?" Evangelion bowed his head respectfully. In the past, he would have definitely not do something like this, because as a Mage it was shameful to bow to a normal person. But, after finding out that Madam Silva is actually a 5th Galaxy Mage, his way of treating her immediately took a 180 degrees turn, quickly turning his respect into admiration.
"Take this amount and give it to Leo," Madam Silva handed Evangelion the piece of paper.
Evangelion glanced at the piece of paper and quickly saw 10 million gold coins written on it, causing him to be shocked. But, without any question, he disappeared to get that amount of gold coins.
"You guys can wait for Evangelion to return." Madam Silva said as she stood up from her chair. She then waved her hand, quickly taking all the 400 pieces of Chaos stones inside his Storage Ring, "I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."
Leo nodded his head before seeing Madam Silva off.
After seeing Madam Silva leaving, Ethan, Edward, and Sele immediately run towards Leo and began asking questions about why Madam Silva gave him a price of ten or so times more than the actual price of 400 pieces of small Chaos stones.
Soon, they finally understood the reason why. It was actually because Madam Silva is sponsoring Leo so that he can quickly become a powerful Mage and help her do something big.
To be honest, this was really their first time encountering such a thing. They can't help thinking, "Is this perhaps the real reason why Sword and Magic became a behemoth existence? They sponsor people with high potential and then recruit them afterwards once they finally become powerful?"
What Ethan and the others had thought was indeed the truth. Every big organization such as the likes of the Sword and Magic has a very unique way of gathering talented people. To be honest, this unique way of gathering talented people has long been existing, way back when the Human race was still living on Earth. To be more precise, this is how big enterprises gather talented people.
