The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1668

Nodding in response, Gerald then replied, “That’s right. My companions and I came from Jaellatra, you see, and since we had no money, I decided to sell the jade charm!”

“…You… Do you not know how precious the jade charm of the green dragon is…?” muttered the confused Prince Severin.

Gerald, for one, honestly had no clue.

Truth be told, was he not in dire need of money, he wouldn’t have sold off the jade charm. After all, he hadn’t even studied it yet. Even so, Prince Severin’s tone alone was enough to tell Gerald how extraordinary a treasure the jade charm actually was…

Now getting increasingly curious, Gerald shook his head before asking, “I’m afraid I’m clueless, Prince Severin. Do enlighten me!”

“…Very well! You see, the jade charm you sold me is the symbol of the green dragon, and the person who owns it will be granted the powers of the green dragon! In case you didn’t know, among the four Divine Beasts, the green dragon is the strongest among them!” explained Severin.

Upon hearing that, the trio instantly found themselves surprised. To think that the jade pendant was this useful! Now that he knew what the jade pendant was capable of, Gerald began slightly regretting his choice of selling it…

Even so, what was done, was done. He couldn’t just take it back now that it had officially been sold. What more, the buyer of the jade pendant was the prince of this continent! With that in mind, getting it back was only going to be even more difficult!

Understanding that it was best if he just gave up on reobtaining it, Gerald then said in a slightly resigned tone, “…I see. I appreciate you telling me more about it, Prince Severin… Regardless, the jade pendant is now yours, so you don’t need to worry about me trying to reclaim it!”

Staring into Gerald’s eyes, the prince could sense that Gerald wasn’t lying to him. With that, he then replied, “…Well said. I trust in you!”

Following that, the two parties talked for a while longer before going their separate ways…

As they left the Aurum Auction House, Gerald kept reminding himself that it was no use crying over spilled milk. The fact that they now owned a fortune definitely helped Gerald convince himself that this outcome wasn’t all that bad. After all, it was better than having nothing at all.
