I'm The supreme Fairy King

"You want what?!!"

Rili was surprised by the sudden request Jim asked him to do.

"I want to get as many summoning tokens," Jim repeated his quest before adding, "I only can afford those asking in exchange for info, especially info about ancient events and secrets."

Rili stayed silent for a whole minute before saying:

"Are you joking or speaking the truth here?"

"I'm not the kind to fool around," Jim seriously said, "can or can't you do it?"

"Well…" Rili paused before adding, "for this kind of a deal I can help for sure. Yet…" he paused and Jim knew what he was after.

"Don't worry, I can pay with academy coins," Jim was now rich and could afford spending even a couple of hundred coins to get what he wanted.

"Academy coins? Are you serious? We are speaking about large quantities here."

"Like what?"

"Like ten coins for each token you get."

Jim confidently smiled, "bring me tens of tokens and you can get hundreds of coins back."

This time Rili went silent for a long time before muttering, "never thought a human would have such a big hand."

"Will you do it or waste my time on nothing?" Jim didn't want others to know about this kind of deal, and Rili was smart enough to get this point.

"Sure, gimme a few minutes and I'll return with all kinds of deals you can afford."

Rili then vanished with his whirlpool, leaving Jim alone behind.

'Are you sure about this?'

'Absolutely sure,' the old man said, 'you don't need to go to the forest to train during this week. You should stay here and work on your spells.'

'Does it take time to learn them?' Jim was alien to all this, so he didn't know the answer.

'It does,' the old man said, 'let's say a token will need a few days to learn. For you, if lucky, a day or two.'

'That's too much,' Jim sighed.

'Nothing comes free in this life boy,' the old man said, 'also after learning them, you'll need to hurry and use them in fights to solidify your learning.'

'I just have the perfect place to do that, hehehe.'

'Naughty boy,' the old man laughed while both waited for Rili's return.

Rili took five minutes to reappear again, and the moment he did he hurriedly said:

"Great news, no it's big news."

"Hurry then and tell me," Jim smiled as he expected something nice coming from this.

"I've found ten tokens for you to buy using info trade," Rili said and before Jim was about to be disappointed, he added, "and two of them store special grade spells."

"Special grade spells? What are these?" Jim didn't get his meaning.

"Spells are divided into grades, the lowest is the common grade, then the rare grade, unique grade, special grade, clan grade, and finally supreme grade. I found two special grade tokens, which is considered something great."

Jim could tell from the excitement Rili was at this was a big thing. "Good, let's not celebrate early then," he said before adding, "we need to finalize the deals first."

"Don't worry," Rili said while laughing, "they both require ancient news, as for the rest they ask for recent news."

"I have no such access to recent news," Jim honestly replied."

"I know, but the two special tokens are worth the shot. After all each token's value is measured by a hundred of the common spells which others are offering for info."

Jim went silent for a moment before asking, "How much coins does the common spell worth?"

"At least a thousand coin," Rili said, before adding, "and the special tokens can't be bought by these coins. Only the trade of an equal value or more is the only way to get them."

Jim realized how worthy these special tokens were. "Alright, what's their questions?" he asked.

"One asks about the ancient battle between the fairies and dragons," Rili said before adding in a whisper, "the owner of this token asks about the old rumors of the dragons betraying the fairies and backstabbing them. He wants to know the story behind this incident."

Jim didn't hurry to ask his old man as he asked, "And the second one?"

"The second one has a dilemma about an ancient technique called pill concoction. According to his words, potions weren't the only alchemy skill fairies long mastered. He speaks about condensing the potions into small pills that have a much stronger effect than the normal potion."

Jim didn't say anymore while he patiently listened to the words of the old man. After some time, he started to speak again.

"The first question's answer is easy. The fairies were really betrayed by the dragons," Jim said before adding, "the dragons were supposed to guard certain key points during the great wars against evil forces.

Yet the dragons didn't show up at the final moment, leaving the fairies fighting alone alongside their trusted followers.

The end result was as people know, the fairies got extinct, their allies were devastated, and the traitors got the handle of things later on, showing off to the public as being the saviors and heroes."
