"It\'s really surprising you know the terms for the land area of sky island and from the look in your eyes, you really know what that place is. But, how do you even know something even many teachers don\'t?

And this area... what would you even do with an empty piece of corner barren land?

It\'s weak, has no practical use, and even if I make it usable with magic, I don\'t think even as a headmaster, it would be much useable.

Money, resources, high magic, workers, as well as a large force to clear up the [Rainbow Flamingo] nest near that area.

Just the hassle of eradicating those thousands of beautiful ferocious birds is too much.

So why would you need that land? Did you even know all these things... of course, that smug answers my every question."

As he said, there was a wide grin on my face, and I really enjoyed that sudden shock on his face.

And Rein too.

Even if she was tied down and can\'t talk, I knew just from those unmoving but pleased eyes that she enjoyed seeing this man in a difficult situation like this.

And I wanted to enjoy this some more, but we had little time to make fun of this old man.

"Headmaster. I probably know about sky island, as well as the academy more than you.

Well, that\'s that but, I really want that land.

It\'s on the edge, had nothing around it at all, and although it is a weak land, you know there\'s a <Mana ore> vine there, right?"

Now, this surprised him even more. And even Rein, who could actually hear the things we were talking about.

Zoe had a radiant smile on her face, as she knew I was having fun right now and the situation was now in my hands.

The conversation that he was controlling until now was now fully in my control and he couldn\'t do anything he wanted.

<Mana ore> a prominent ore used to produce many things of everyday life as well as many Artifacts.

A rare ore filled with a good amount of Mana and things would actually be chaotic if someone knew there existed a Mana ore vine at a free piece of land on the sky island.

Though the academy had all rights to the island from ancient times, they definitely were open for business.

And many people had houses on that island, though every one of them was filthy rich.

Celes\'s ability was excellent for gathering information and luckily, our tower library had many books from the time this person before me had become the headmaster.

And I actually knew many things about the island, if not most.

Like...

"Sir Aldrich. I know about all the mines that have existed since ancient times, the inner core, as well as about the [< Masters >].

And please believe me when I say this but, I also have restrictions as one who possesses this knowledge.

You know that can never say anything about those things, but, I can definitely say them if I risk my life and I know becoming enemies with one of the strongest is just foolish.

I will join the council, accept the \'requests\' that I can, and I just want the land.

I wanna make a good, big house there and live peacefully during my time there, with my dear friend… and some more, of course.

I have enough resources, money, and artificial manpower to stabilize and develop the land, and if you want, I can develop the mine too.

But, I will have sixty percent of all the profits."

He was speechless after hearing all this and all I said was… true.

I could be the richest in the world if I sell some things I had, but, even without that, I had a lot of money as the owner of the whole franchise of <Eon\'s new food>.

Even I didn\'t know just how rich I was.

Well, I had enough to develop land and make a beautiful house with all the modern facilities and things we had back at the tower.

It would be an amazing place, and as most of this would be underground, and in an area where no airship could travel because of the threat from the [Rainbow Flamingoes], it was the best place to have a secret base.

I always needed a good place to make this house and now that the one who had the highest authority of the best place possible was here, how can I not take advantage of this fate-presented opportunity?

Though Rein was surprised by all the things I was saying and many things would have gone unheard because of his sudden voice blocking and vision distortion.

Well, she could see I was fine. That was enough to make out most of the parts.

And I had just said something that didn\'t go well with her happy blush a moment before.

She was blushing at the thought of being able to live with me a while ago... but then I said with a few others, crushing the sweet things she had dreamed of.

Well, I will explain things to her soon enough, and, well, maybe it would be our home someday.

\'Damn... let\'s think about this later. Just this thought of living with her there... no. Haaaa, later...\'

I couldn\'t contain this excitement and smile even a second more if I thought too deeply about it and things might go wrong if fell into some lovey-dovey fantasies.

The deal was important.

He was surprised, but he was also amazed at just how much information I had and things to use, and opportunities to exploit.

And there was a pleased smirk on his face after hearing all this.

"Hohoho. You win this time, young boy. And you can have that land and full authority of that area. I\'m even more surprised than the last time I remember.

And your little sister will have a good time in the academy too, I promise that much.

But... I want sixty-five percent."

A sudden pressure started oozing out from him, and his eyes turned serious.

My heart calmed from this one, and an excited smile appeared on my face. A really, really excited one.

\'Yes... I can feel it. This will be fun~!!!\'

An actual negotiation. Something I have been looking forward to all this time~!

I thought my first opponent would be my dear mom but, someone on par with her, this old man who has had much more experience in dealings was also something good~.

I also turned serious and this much pressure was nothing to me after covering the body with some Solnova.

I had this special energy as the primary source of power and just like me, the person before me also used a special kind of energy.

Though the toughest and most complex one to master by any living being, this special energy famous for being the fundamental particle energy was as easy for him to control as the Solnova was for me.

[Aether].

A particle type energy that is present in all the atmosphere with a greater amount than Mana but lower than Solnova.

Just like Mana, this was also particle-type energy, while Aura was string-type and Solnova was a ray or wave-type energy.

Well, that was some heavy stuff, so no need to think too deeply about it but, one thing was clear.

Just like the Aura, [Aether] was denser than Mana and right now, if I hadn\'t had Solnova that\'s although thinner, was faster and more powerful, to cover the body, I might have fallen unconscious or my concentration would have been drained from my body.

But I was fine thanks to this special energy, and now that the serious smirk on his face and eyes were in the mood to do some business, I prepared myself, too.

\'It would be fun...\'

I smirked back at him and presented my own offer.

And these boring negotiations weren\'t something others would like to see.
