Liam stared at the chubby guy up and down for a few seconds. Nope, this was definitely not the 'King Dante' he knew of!
The person that he was familiar with was strong, lean, muscular, handso, and charismatic. He was one of the richest players both before and after the apocalypse and had dozens of wives.
After seeing that person from afar, Liam couldn't simply bring himself to see this chubster as the sa charismatic guy.
Perhaps all of that was the after effect of consuming various elixirs like the one he wanted.
Liam decided not to think too much about it.
This was definitely Dante as the facial similarities were unmistakable, and so was his na and guild na. He stood up and walked over to the group.
"What do you an you don't have anything yet? Then why did you call here?" Dante furiously shouted at the two good-for-nothings in front of him.
He had co here running all the way, thinking that these guys finally managed to get so intel, but they were just as useless as always.
"Tch. What a waste of ti! Don't call again. Fuck off." Dante glared at the duo, breathing fire down on them.
"Heh. Let them go. I am the one who called you here." A voice sounded from behind, making the guy turn around and look.
"Hello." Liam calmly smiled at the wide-eyed chubby player. "Whatever information you need, you can directly ask ."
"You!" Dante looked in confusion from Liam to his two underlings, and he understood what happened. These two dogs had betrayed him!
"This is what I get for trusting brainless idiots to do the job! Ptui!"
"Hey. Hey. I co in peace. Calm down. Can we go sowhere more private to talk so business?" Liam chuckled faintly and explained things to the guy before he popped his lid off.
"Hmmm? What about?" Dant's face changed. He was also curious now. He silently followed Liam as the two of them headed inside the tower.
Since Dante was also qualified to enter until floor 50, they picked a restaurant on that floor and settled in a private booth.
"Tell . What is so important that you had to et in person?" Dante sneered. He was much calr now, having a good grasp on what could have happened.
"Heh. What's the rush? Why don't we get sothing to eat first?" Liam smiled. He wanted to feel out the guy to see if a business deal with soone like him could actually work.
Not that he had a choice in that matter. This was the only person whom he knew was capable of getting the job done.
"You want to eat sothing? Do it on your own ti. I suggest you co straight to the point." Dante leisurely leaned back on the bench, putting his leg up on the table to sit in an arrogant, intimidating pose.
. ᴄ`ᴏ`m His gaze landed on Liam, looking at him from top to bottom in disgust. What a pretty boy! He hated guys like this.
And he had to admit. He had gravely misjudged this so-called top ranker. He didn't have a single noteworthy item on his body.
He probably just had so trick up his sleeve for fast-leveling. And as for those recipes…
"By the way… I already have your fire resistance potion recipe. KeK." Dante sneered. "I hope you didn't co all the way here to beg about it?"
Liam chuckled again. "But I didn't co here. You did."
,c`o`m
Perhaps because he had already lived through many things, he felt like he was talking to a spoilt child.
Dante's face imdiately changed, so Liam did not push him any further. After all, he was here for peace talks.
"Alright. Shall we have a proper conversation now?" He as well leaned back with a smile. "I have a recipe with that you could greatly benefit from. Are you interested?"
"Hmmm?" Dante blinked in confusion, and then his fat lips curled up into a grin. "Why? Are you not able to crack the recipe?" He hit the nail directly on the head.
Liam nodded. "Yes." He did not plan on hiding this fact from the guy. A little bit of honesty is needed when making a deal. Soone had to take the first step.
"Oh! He He He. So you really are here to beg for my help." Dante once again sneered. "What is this recipe that even soone like you can't crack?"
"Aren't you the famous alchemy genius who made the only fire resistance potion on the market?"
"If a genius like you couldn't crack it, why would soone like be able to help you? He He He"
Liam's face twitched. He waited for the guy to get it all out of the system, but it didn't look like this peace talk was going to end smoothly.
"Yes. I am not able to crack it, but maybe you might? Are you interested in trying? It is an extrely lucrative recipe." He asked patiently, even trying to bait with the money card.
"Hmmm… maybe… what is the recipe? Share it first."
"Mmmm. We need to make so agreents before that." Liam shook his head. He was willing to overlook the other party's arrogance, but this was the important part right here.
"What agreents? Pfft. You need my help here. Not the other way around. I am not making any agreents."
"You shouldn't be so hasty. You should take a look first. I wouldn't be here discussing this matter with you if it was not sothing important."
Liam looked at the guy calmly, placing his chin on his palm. "Alright. How about I tell you the na of the potion as a sign of goodwill?"
"Ok." Dante cocked his head to the side and listened.
"It's a body cleansing potion. It improves stats."
"Oh?" Even though Liam downplayed its importance, Dante still looked shocked to hear that sothing like this existed.
Of course, this would be extrely lucrative. The guy was not lying to him!
"So… what sort of agreent are you looking for here?" He probed further.
"Hmmm. Nothing big. Just a 40% - 60% profit split and your word that you wouldn't be sharing this recipe with anyone else."
"Of course, I would also need you to let watch while you make it how many ever tis I need to and supply as many potions as I require."
"Obviously, I will be providing the herbs for the potions that I order." Liam casually laid out everything on the table, and now it was Dante's turn to respond.
But the guy continued to look at Liam with a weird expression.
