âDavid, Iâve told Grandpa Val about your cooperation. He needs to understand something about you.
Donât worry though, Grandpa Val is the person I trust the most in the family. Heâd never hurt me,â Alba promised carefully.
She was worried that she would enrage David.
After all, this was between the two of them. Now, she had let a third party know about their secret without Davidâs consent.
Of course, David would not be mad.
He was a Saint now, so he was more confident.
Just now, David was at a disadvantage when facing Valerio. Now, he was the one in charge.
It would be good for the head of Treasure Trove to know this.
With his help, David believed East League Trading Companyâs development would be even faster.
If they were developing faster, he would be spending money faster too.
David looked at Valerio and said, âWhat do you want to know, Mr. Valerio? You can ask me. Iâll tell you everything I know.â
âDavid, I heard your master gave you a Soulbound Weapon when you came out.â Valerio contemplated before asking.
He decided to start with the first-rate Soulbound Weapon Alba mentioned.
âThatâs right!â David answered directly.
âCan I see it? Donât misunderstand me. I heard Alba say that your weapon is very unique and I am very interested in Soulbound Weapons, so thatâs why Iâm curious and want to see it. I donât mean anything else.â
âThatâs fine.â
David got up after he said that. Then, he placed the wooden sheath on the table.
âFeel free to look at it. However, I have to tell you that you can only look and not have any ideas about this. My master gave this to me, so itâs not for sale. My master will not spare me if I sell it,â David added.
âDonât worry. A nobleman will not steal. I just want to look at it and I will never have any other ideas about it,â Valerio said.
âGo ahead then.â David gestured to Valerio.
Valerio carefully opened the sheath.
Crack!
A long sword with a red light appeared before his eyes.
At the same time, there was also a bone-piercing chill as an infinite amount of piercing energy rushed before him.
âWhat is this?
Valerio was stunned when he saw the Evil-Splitting Sword.
As the head of Treasure Trove, he had seen a lot of treasures over the years. Normal people could not compare to Valerio in terms of knowledge and experiences.
Even Alba, who loved researching weapons since she was young, was miles away from Valerio.
âThis must be it!
âThis long red sword in front of me is definitely a first-rate Soulbound Weapon!
âItâs even the best among first-rate Soulbound Weapons!â
Valerio had seen the two first-rate Soulbound Weapons the Fellowes family owned. They were nothing.
compared to this sword.
This was surely a weapon qualified for a Sacred Saint.
Unexpectedly, Davidâs master gave it to him.
Since he could give such a precious weapon to his disciple, Valerio could see how close they were.
It was no exaggeration to say that not even fathers and sons would have such a good relationship.
âDavid, may I know what this sword is called?â
âMy master said itâs called the Evil-Splitting Sword. It can slash through all things evil and everything in the universe.â
âThe Evil-Splitting Sword? What a good name! Since your master can give you such a precious treasure, you must have a good relationship with him,â Valerio lamented.
âOf course! I was relying on that old man ever since I was young, and I am his only disciple. How can we not be close?â David said as if it was a matter of course.
Valerio smiled bitterly on the inside.
âThis kid is simple-minded, so he might not know what this means.
âEven fathers might not be so good to their biological sons.
âNot only did he give David trillions of Star Dollars before he came out, he even gave David a first-rate Soulbound Weapon that can represent his identity.
âAnyone with a discerning eye would not attack David once they saw this sword. âItâs because they wonât be able to handle the rage of the swordâs true owner.â
