Location- Sky Blossom City, Kane residence

"Master Wyatt, I thought we were friends?" Karen asked, looking at the room in which Chris, Amanda and Maya were hiding. 

Karen was the one to point out my breakthrough in Whiteburn manor and now she was able to detect the hidden Kane trio. It seems she has a dependable detection card. I asked Chris, Amanda and Maya to hide because I did not know how to explain their miraculous recovery from the cursed fire, which was supposed to be inextinguishable once it gets rooted in a person's soul pathway. 

"Chris, Amanda, Maya come out and greet Mr Elliott and Ms Karen." Now that they were exposed there was no point in hiding them and might as well make use of this, "Elliott, they are my parents' party members and the ones that had brought me up to speed about my parents and the suspicious circumstances surrounding their death. If possible I would like to buy 3 golden grimoires for them." 

Hearing my words Elliott's face stiffened and I could see his mouth twitching, 'Did I say something wrong?' I thought as Karen spoke Elliott's mind, " Master Wyatt golden grimoire are controlled items. You cannot buy them in normal ways. You will have to register with your resident city government and then once the government does their due diligence and nothing suspicious pops up during your background check, you will be allowed to purchase one golden grimoire for yourself. This is the legal means but if you are confident about your ability you can also try and acquire the required ingredients yourself. Or you can also try your hand in the black market but it will require a lot of patience as golden grimoires are a rare commodity even in the black market and it will cost you a fortune to just buy one golden grimoire, not to mention you want to acquire three golden grimoires." 

Hearing Karen I understood Elliott's reaction, since Elliott had gifted me a golden grimoire I thought as long as I had enough money and connection I could acquire three golden grimoires for the Kane trio. It seems I had underestimated the value of the golden grimoire. If it was that easy I am sure the Kane family would already have bought one or two. Now that I think of it Kevin Zhang had to go through all that trouble of scheming against young Wyatt just to get his hands on his parent's silver grimoire. If silver grimoires are rare in the Sky blossom city market then the golden grimoire should be like unicorns. 

"Elliott, it is delayed but I sincerely thank you for the golden grimoire." I am sure none of the three means mentioned by Karen to obtain a golden grimoire would work for me as I was not wealthy or had the time to buy a golden grimoire in the black market or search for its ingredients. As for registering with the city government I would only be alerting the Circle if I did that. 

"No worries Wyatt, I had procured two golden grimoires over a decade to recruit two capable card grandmasters for my security but I could not find anyone trustworthy enough till to date. Thankfully that worked in my favour, I used one for myself and gave you the last one." Elliott explained himself not taking my ignorance to heart. It seems I owe Elliott one now… well let's just pile it together with the rest of the favours I owe him. 

"All three ways mentioned by Karen do not work for me, is there any other way to get a golden grimoire?" After knowing the prowess and reach of the circle I wanted to strengthen Chris, Amanda and Maya as soon as possible and as much as possible.

"There is another way" said Karen playfully, giving a pause she continued, "we can hunt those who already own golden grimoire." 

"What!" Honestly, I was not shocked by Karen's answer because I heard a lot of stories where card apprentices are hunted for their silver or higher grade grimoire. That's one of the reasons I did not consider raiding a dungeon yet. Similar to Kevin Zhang I bet many adventurers and rogues are eyeing me for my grimoire. 

"I think Karen has a point, if you are interested I have a list of golden grimoire holders… how about this, lend me these three here their strength seems satisfactory." Saying that Elliott began to explain what he meant. 

It seems Elliot becoming the managing director of Jk group sky blossom city branch and curing his genetic disease has alerted his siblings. So the Jk group board members supporting Elliott's siblings got together to overthrow Elliott as managing director of Jk group sky blossom city branch but that was not that simple as the major shareholder and the current chairman of Jk group Mr Jk was favouring Elliott. So they tried the crooked way by contacting Fine gold Jaya Keith and giving her enough leverage to stop Elliott from erecting a JK group branch in sky blossom city. 

Jaya was not a fool she knew what was happening so today morning she set up a meeting with Elliott. Where she proposed either Elliott partners up with Fine Gold to open a JK group branch in the Sky blossom city or she will use the information provided by Elliott's siblings to sabotage Elliott's plans for opening a Jk group branch in the sky blossom city. 

Thankfully Elliott's siblings were not dumb, with the information they provided to Jaya; it was only enough for Jaya to delay Elliott from opening a Jk group branch in the sky blossom city. Elliott's siblings just wanted to stop Elliott from gaining power, not ruin the JK group's future. Partnering with Fine Gold was out of options so Elliott rejected Jaya's proposition without hesitation, as a result, all his plans for opening a Jk group branch in the sky blossom city had to be put on hold for a month or so. Using this time Elliott decided to solve the internal conflict in the JK group. 

But the problem was that except for Karen and himself he could not trust anyone, even his new entourage had yet to gain his full trust. So when he saw Chris, Amanda and Maya trusted by me he decided to borrow them to clean up the mess back home. This way he gets the manpower he is lacking and I get all the trophies collected during this hunt which included Golden grimoires and other hidden wealth of the prey. 

Elliot's plan was a win-win for both of us, and right now I need a lot of soul jades to unlock my 3rd transformation which would unlock the 2nd transformation for Chris, Amanda and Maya but they would require 1000 soul jades each to create their second transformation bodies. 

So I needed soul jades and lots and lots of them. Therefore I agreed with Elliott and lent him the Kane Trio. And thanks to Hive AI I was not worried about their loyalty or other variables as I could remotely order them from here. Since they were of no help to me here as they could not make public appearances in the Sky blossom city otherwise the circle's minions would hunt them relentlessly, it is better that they went with Elliott and upgraded their grimoire.

Having reached a conclusion, Elliott left with the Kane and Wyatt family. Elliott had to make some additional arrangements as Chris, Amanda and Maya continued to pretend to be in a coma. To those who were monitoring me, if any, this did not seem suspicious as all of those that left with Elliott had no combat power and as for the trio that was capable of combat they were comatose. 

Sending off the Wyatt and Kane family with Elliott to Blossom cake city I headed back to the warehouse. Surprisingly Ronnie did not go with his parents and Jackie instead he decided to stay behind and work for me. In his words, "I will become worthy of you Jackie." Elliot did offer him a job in the JK group but Ronnie was adamant that he would only work for me. I had no choice but to give Ronnie a job seeing his enthusiasm after all he was family.
