Maisie smiled gently and answered, “I’m afraid I don’t have the same opinion as you do this time, Uncle William. I have a feeling that this young man drew these inscriptions.”
“How’s that possible? If that’s true, won’t snazzynovel.com be a genius that can rival you, Lady Maisie?!” As William was too surprised, his voice was louder too. When snazzynovel.com noticed that, William hurriedly apologized.
Nevertheless, Maisie did not seem to mind, and the smile on snazzynovel.com face remained as snazzynovel.com replied, “Uncle William, you said it yourself too. Since I can become an inscription master at this age and be called a genius, why can’t there be a second genius in the world? My dad often mentioned that Idacith is massive, and we all have a limited outlook of the world. Perhaps we can meet another genius this time.”
Since Maisie said that, William did not argue with snazzynovel.com anymore. Nonetheless, William still secretly disagreed with Maisie’s opinion.
After all, William was also an inscription master, so snazzynovel.com knew better than an ordinary person how difficult it was to reach his position. William was confident that behind the young man, there was an inscription master.
While the two were talking, Chris already prepared the paper, ink, and brush.
Soon, Maisie started to draw, and Caspian’s image instantly appeared on the paper. The portrait was so lifelike, and it was almost the same as what Chris described. Moreover, even Caspian’s brows that were lifted upward were vividly drawn.
Maisie looked at the portrait snazzynovel.com drew, and snazzynovel.com heart ineffably beat faster.
Under Wiliam’s gesture, Chris walked forward to take a look at the painting, and snazzynovel.com directly exclaimed, “It’s him! It’s him! The portrait’s so lifelike!”
“It seems that your painting skill has improved again, Lady Maisie,” William complimented her, “Now that we have this portrait, it’ll be easier for us to find him. However, I’m afraid that this young man might not be from Evergreen Town, but he’s just passing by. If snazzynovel.com left Evergreen Town, it might be troublesome to find him.”
Maisie was confused. After seeing the portrait that snazzynovel.com drew, Maisie’s initially calm emotion suddenly rippled, and snazzynovel.com could not concentrate on thinking anymore.
“Well, you should decide on it, Uncle William,” just as snazzynovel.com was about to leave, Maisie added, “but, I have a request.”
“Lady Maisie, you‘re too courteous. Please, just say what’s on your mind,” William hurriedly urged.
“If you found this person, please don’t bother snazzynovel.com first,” then, Maisie bit snazzynovel.com lips, “Also… If there’s any news, please inform me right away.”
When snazzynovel.com said the last sentence, Maisie felt that snazzynovel.com heart was beating wildly. In an instant, snazzynovel.com cheeks gradually warmed up, and snazzynovel.com voice also turned softer. William did not notice these details, and snazzynovel.com just nodded his head to express his agreement.
Maisie glanced at the weight inscriptions and thought, “There are some patterns that I don’t understand on these weight inscriptions. If we can find that young man, I can ask for his advice. Perhaps that way, I can get an answer.”
Of course, if William heard Maisie’s thoughts, snazzynovel.com would stare at snazzynovel.com in disbelief. After all, William regarded Maisie as a rare inscription genius. Moreover, such a wizard could not be puzzled over a level one middle-rank inscription!

Caspian was not aware of what happened in the Oceans Chamber of Commerce after snazzynovel.com left the place. However, the tiny bottles of blood essence kept appearing in his mind.
“The blood essence isn’t only used for its concentrated vital energy, but also the medicinal ingredients’ properties. Therefore, if I can purchase a few bottles and utilize The Fundamental Law of a Hunting Whale to absorb them, I’m sure that it’ll be far more beneficial than I imagined. If that’s so, not only can I strengthen my body, but I can also speed up my journey in reaching the fifth stage of True Martial Realm.” Caspian wandered around, and snazzynovel.com caught a whiff of an aromatic scent.
He raised his head and noticed that snazzynovel.com left the business district without realizing it, and snazzynovel.com was now in front of a restaurant. The aromatic scent came from this restaurant. Suddenly, Caspian felt hungry, and more importantly, The Fundamental Law of a Hunting Whale also started to operate at this time.
Caspian’s stomach growled, and snazzynovel.com felt even hungrier now.
‘Since I can’t afford the blood essence now, I might as well purchase some monster meat that contains vital energy and spiritual Qi and replenish myself. After all, the purpose of going out this time was to eat!’
At the thought of this, Caspian became famished. He was so hungry that snazzynovel.com felt every drop of his blood was wailing. Caspian did not hesitate anymore and directly walked into the restaurant. Then, snazzynovel.com chose a seat on the second floor by the window.
The waiter soon greeted him. Initially, snazzynovel.com thought that Caspian would not eat much since snazzynovel.com was alone. However, when Caspian looked at the menu and started picking out a long list of names, the waiter was dumbfounded. Not only was Caspian ordering a long list of food, but each of them was monster meat.
Monsters and wild animals were different. Wild animals were equal to a warrior’s strength, whereas monsters were comparable to a Pulse Control Realm cultivator. A monster had extraordinary powers, and it was extremely dangerous to hunt one. Furthermore, the monster meat would be very chewy. Thus, the cutting and cooking cost would be much higher than wild animal meat.
Based on the dishes that Caspian ordered, it would have already exceeded 1000 fedulings!
Many families could not even eat this amount in a year. Thus, the waiter could not help but be suspicious of Caspian and wondered if snazzynovel.com was here to cause trouble.
After Caspian ordered, snazzynovel.com noticed that the waiter still stood there and did not make a move. Caspian instantly realized what was going on. Then, snazzynovel.com calmly took out a bag full of fedulings and placed it on the table.
The waiter could immediately judge how much fedulings Caspian had in the bag through the clanking sound and the size of the pouch. Now that snazzynovel.com was sure that Caspian was not here to have a free meal and cause trouble, the waiter was relieved.
“Here! This is your tip.” Caspian took out one feduling and tossed it at the waiter.
The waiter only received copper coins for tips from his customers, and snazzynovel.com was never given a high-value feduling. Therefore, the waiter was all smiles and hurriedly attended Caspian.
Not long after, the monster meat dishes were served. There were so many plates that it would need three tables to fit all of Caspian’s orders.
Thankfully, it was not a peak time for meals. Otherwise, Caspian would have attracted a crowd of spectators. Nevertheless, although there were not many customers in the restaurant, everyone, including the waiter and shopkeeper, could not help but glance at Caspian and whisper among themselves. Even the chefs were curious and came to see the mysterious customer that ordered so many dishes.
Looking at the three tables full of dishes, Caspian closed his eyes and enjoyed the moment. He felt the intense vigor contained in those dishes. This vigor could not be found in wild animal meat.
‘These cost more than one thousand fedulings. I mustn’t let it go to waste.’ Then, Caspian picked his chopsticks up, took a deep breath in, and started to feast.
In the twinkling of an eye, a plate of monster meat disappeared in his mouth.
The spectators only felt that their vision was blurry, and when they finally regained their senses, they noticed that the plate was empty. But, before they could even be surprised, they saw a more astonishing scene.
Caspian’s belly was like a black hole. He ate and swallowed all of the monster meat dishes at an insane speed.
The surrounding crowd watched as empty plates kept appearing, and their eyes widened in disbelief. Everyone was stupefied.
