I Just Inherited The Arcane Emperor's Legacy

Leo smiled. He knew that Trevor would be able to recognize that the horn belonged to a 1st Circle Magical Beast. He knew that it would give away his strength, but he wanted to sell it in return for money. He could use the money for a better sword for Daphne.

"I found a corpse. It had this horn that seemed intriguing, so I cut it out. Was it a 1st Circle Magical Beast?!" He acted shocked, but his acting was deliberately poor. Even though he knew that Trevor knew the truth, he couldn't give it away. He still had to feign ignorance.

"Forget it. You don't need to come to me anymore. With your abilities, you can start looking for real herbs and hunt Magical Beasts very quickly. You will want to go to the Thousand Treasures Tower." Trevor said.

This got him intrigued. "Thousand Treasure Tower? What is that?" He asked Trevor.

"It is a powerful force that has multiple towers in cities all over the empire. They have treasures and can buy Beast Cores and Magical Beast corpses as well as any herbs you have. All the adventurers sell their loot to them if they are worth anything." Trevor explained.

"Really? Where do they get the money?" Leo asked.

"They are incredibly rich. They have more money than you can ever imagine. The auctions that they hold in the Capital every year deal with more money than this city has seen in the entire decade."

He took a second to take it in. The amount of money he had saved up until then was already beyond his imagination. Now, he was finding out that there was a power that had so much money they could buy him a million times over.

"Where is this Tower?" He asked Trevor.

"If you go into the Commoner's District and walk to where it meets the Noble's District, you will see a big tower that is in the middle of the wall. The side that faces the Commoner's District is the entrance we can access. But be careful. Everyone there is someone you cannot afford to offend." Trevor said solemnly.

He nodded. "One last question. How much is a fair deal for this?" He lifted the horn. He put it back in his satchel since Trevor wasn't buying it off him.

"I would say upwards of 15000 Star coins. That is the horn of a Mid-Stage 1st Circle Magical Beast." Trevor said.

"Mid-Stage?" Leo was confused.

Trevor smiled. "I think it will be a long time till we meet again after this. Let me give you one last suggestion for a while. Buy the book "Magical Beasts in Valkyr's Forest" from the Thousand Treasure Tower. It should be about 5000 Star coins. It is completely worth it."

"Thank you so much for all your help. I will never forget it." He bowed to Trevor and gave his gratitude.

He had only come this far because Trevor had given him work for the first time. That was how he had come across the cave and how he had chanced upon the tome. Coming into contact with Trevor changed his life completely.I think you should take a look at

After giving his gratitude, he went back to his cottage. He was very tired from going to the forest and he didn't have the energy to walk all the way to the Noble's District and also make sure he doesn't bump into someone. He decided to wait till the next day.

The next day, he woke up and got ready to go to the Thousand Treasure Tower. He wore the best clothes he had. Before going, he first took out the Beast Core from his satchel and left it in his room. After that, he went to a nice clothing store near his home.

There, he bought a nice cloak that he could use to hide his face. He felt that he would be treated differently if they saw that he was a kid. He also didn't want anyone to recognize him in case he got into any trouble.

After buying the cloak, he went to the edge of the wall where the Noble's District and Commoner's District met. He saw a tower as Trevor had described in the distance. He started walking toward it.

As he was walking, the tower became clearer and clearer. The tower seemed like it had only three floors. But each floor was massive. The windows of the tower were huge arches. The entire tower was made of marble, and when he got to the entrance, the name plaque was carved in gold. The whole tower screamed extravagance.

He entered the tower through the entrance on the commoners' side. As he entered, he saw that the first floor was decently populated. He saw a lot of people walking around, looking at the displays.

He walked up to one of the glass displays and saw a red-colored herb. It was a Blood Lily. But unlike the one that he had found, this was a lot larger and the red was more crimson, like blood.

He looked around to look for where he could see someone to sell his horn. He finally saw a corner where the plaque said [Appraisal Counter]. He walked up to it, hoping they would look at his horn.

As he walked, he noticed that on the other side, there were a lot fewer people, and everyone was going up a set of stairs. The stairs were decorated with a red carpet and the people walking up them were dressed incredibly well.

He was too busy looking at them that he almost bumped into someone.

"I'm sorry." He apologized. He looked back and walked steadily to the Appraisal Room.
