As a young man from Earth's internet era, Klein quickly understood what Miss Magician wanted to do, how she planned to do it, and what she was relying on.
Wasn't this just the sharing economy? With the Tarot Club and Mr. Fool in existence, the technical limitations themselves were no longer a problem… Miss Magician was usually lazy and inconspicuous, but she had such sharp intuition in this area… Well, it also stemmed from my proposal to rent out magic books… Regardless, being able to quickly get inspiration and establish a "business model" was quite good… Klein deliberately paused for a few seconds as The World, Gehrman Sparrow, and then said:
"We might need it this weekend and next week."
He estimated based on when Mr. Hanged Man would return from the Abyss Vortex to the edge of the Rosted Sea, and allowed him some time to stabilize his spirituality and replenish supplies.
By then, they would join forces to explore that primitive island filled with many supernatural creatures.
Miss Magician Fors quickly nodded upon hearing this:
"Okay, I'll make arrangements and won't delay your use."
She breathed a sigh of relief and asked Mr. Fool to witness the subsequent rental agreement. After receiving an affirmative answer, she indicated that the private exchange was over.
Then she materialized "Lemano's Travel Notes," looked around, and said:
"Everyone, I have a magical item here.
"It has 38 pages, each page can help the user record a Beyonder power they have seen and release it when needed, but it's weaker than the original…
"Each page can be recorded repeatedly, but only one usage per recording… Among them, three pages can be used for demigod-level Beyonder powers, but the success rate of recording is very low, maybe one time out of ten…”
Fors briefly explained the characteristics and negative effects of "Lemano's Travel Notes," causing the eyes of Miss Justice Audrey and others to gradually light up.
No longer newcomers to mysticism and the Beyonder world, they easily understood the value of the travel notes in Miss Magician's hands. Without needing to communicate, they simultaneously regarded it as a semi-artifact.
This was somewhat like "The Shepherd" and "Creeping Hunger," both capable of using many different Beyonder powers across pathways, but with fewer negative effects, and the chance to record demigod abilities… Drawing my own blood… Miss Justice Audrey, lost in thought, suddenly shrank her hand in slight fear.
As the daughter of a great noble, she had almost never been injured since childhood, so she had a strong fear of pain due to its unknown nature.
Taking advantage of Fors's pause, she raised her hand slightly and said:
"Miss Magician, how much money do you want to exchange for it?"
Audrey believed that her father, Earl Hall, would also recognize the value of this "Lemano's Travel Notes" and would not refuse to reimburse her, so she planned to fully meet Fors's demands.
She must be in dire need of money recently, otherwise she wouldn't sell such an important and practical magical item… Audrey thought sympathetically, considering whether to voluntarily offer a premium.
Damn… Why couldn't she wait until I returned from that primitive island?… Mr. Hanged Man, Alger, also had a strong interest in "Lemano's Travel Notes," but currently, he simply didn't have the money or materials to purchase this magical item.
1300 pounds might be a fortune that an ordinary person couldn't save in ten or twenty years, but it was still far from the level of an item like "Lemano's Travel Notes"!
It was worth at least 10,000 pounds, and if it encountered a Beyonder backed by a major power, selling for over 30,000 pounds was not a problem… Alger's gaze swept over Miss Justice, who was inquiring, and Miss Hermit, Cattleya, who was pushing up her glasses and about to join the bidding, and he couldn't help but sigh inwardly, not believing that this transaction would fail as he hoped and remain unsold until he returned from the primitive island.
Miss Justice had money, Miss Hermit had the "Mysterious Queen" and the "Moss Ascetic Order," so she had no shortage of money and resources, sigh… Mr. Hanged Man, Alger, slightly adjusted his posture and looked calmly across.
Emlyn the Moon and Derrick the Sun were also interested in "Lemano's Travel Notes," but only to the extent of interest; they were well aware that they didn't have the ability to make a corresponding exchange.
Hearing Miss Justice's question, Fors realized that she seemed to have forgotten to mention the most critical part, and quickly added:
"No, it's not for sale—I'm renting it out.
"When you need it, you can rent it for a short period, with Mr. Fool as the witness."
Renting? That's possible? At this moment, except for Klein the Fool and Derrick the Sun, everyone including Miss Hermit Cattleya was clearly taken aback.
They undoubtedly knew what a rental transaction was, but they never thought it could be applied to magical items, let alone that it would appear at the Tarot Club!
