"I can trust you with my life because Dredre trusts you," Every ti Zaltan responded he only made Wyatt more confused. It was as if Zaltan was speaking a different language. Wyatt found what just Zaltan said downright stupid and did not bother to hide it, "Believe when I say I have had a crazy day and that is by far the most stupidest thing I have heard today."
Wyatt would never trust a person just because a simpleton Pixie trusted them. Pixies were so simple-minded that they would help their kidnappers kidnap them. For soone of Zaltan's caliber to make his decisions based on the preference of a cooped-up pixie now that was nuts.
"Wyatt, you do know that though pixies are a friendly and joyous bunch, it is not easy for soone to get close to them and gain their trust. It as if they have a supernatural sense when it cos to this," Zaltan explained, as he spoke about the pixies one could see the affection and love he held for the pixies, which was a rare sight in the dark race. As many dark races thought pixies were stupid and annoying, and saw them as prey.
"Nope, all I did was show a little interest in her life and she beca close to . I do trust Dredre to recomnd the books I need but not with my life. A dubious creature with a little brain can gain the affection of these pixies. They are just too simple and gullible," Wyatt spoke the truth, he found Dredre cute and extended her the common courtesy he would extend to any fellow being.
"The fact that you would claim sothing like this instead of accepting it shows that you understand the pixies as I do," Zaltan was starting to see why Dredre liked Wyatt. This guy was tough on the outside but soft on the inside. If you put in the work to gain his trust then he will never let you down. Soone like this was hard to co by.
"Nope, I say this because I am starting to doubt this whole offer. If you are satisfied by sothing so simple and basic, then there has to be a catch. It makes doubt you and your leadership in many ways," Zaltan had already inford Wyatt that he might have to risk his life to help him. Knowing this Wyatt had his concerns of this deal. And from the looks of it, Wyatt was starting to feel like Zaltan planned to use him as a cannon fodder in his plan. Therefore, he could not bring himself to agree to Zaltan's offer.
Dredre stood on the side formally, even though her free spirit will would prefer to hover around and explore, as she was in the presence of his highness prince Zaltan. She did not seem to be bothered by Wyatt's words. She did not seem to register them as offensive. That's how simple she was. Though Wyatt has not said sothing very drastic. However, he did claim that their friendship was only good for book recomndations and did not extend beyond that. If it was a human they would take offense to that but Dredre took it as a complint and was happy that Wyatt trusted her to do that. How could one use such simple creatures' closeness as a scale to trust soone? Now that was just crazy. So it was not a surprise Wyatt was having a hard ti trusting Zaltan's intentions.
Did Belphegor tell the Myraid World about the real fragnt he used to create the plague egg incubated in him?
No, he wouldn't otherwise he would lose any chance of retrieving it after Wyatt's death along with the remains of the world that Wyatt unleashed the plague on in his final monts.
Would the Librarian covet a realm fragnt? The Librarian wouldn't but Zaltan would. The Librarian was rich as hell but Zaltan was just a part of him with very small authority.
Regardless of whether Belphegor was stupid enough to reveal to the myriad realms about the realm fragnt or whether the Zaltan was conspiring for the plague egg created using the realm fragnt Wyatt had to be careful dealing with the dark race. That was given.
Zaltan looked at Wyatt for a while understanding that though he could trust Wyatt now he had to gain Wyatt's trust. After a thought, he turned to Book Guide Pixie and asked, "Dredre, how many newbie demon rchants applied for the Infinity library card on the day Wyatt applied for it?"
"Umm… 10,011 demon rchants applied for the library card on the sa day as Wyatt, Your Highness" Dredre answered after accessing the library array for the information.
"And how many of them were friendly and treated their library guide with respect?" Zaltan asked, knowing that Pixies share everything with each other. It was not considered gossip because they treated their whole tribe like a family. So for them, it was like sharing their day at work with their parents and siblings.
Since the Dariaus Mall branch of the Infinity Library fell under the jurisdiction of the Forest Guide Pixie tribe of Book Guide Pixies it was not surprising that Dredre would be aware of how each of the 10,011 newbie demon rchants treated their personal book guide pixie.
"About 7,605 newbie demon rchants were friendly and treated their guides with respect," Dredre answered imdiately rembering every conversation she had with her fellow pixies on that day.
Listening to Dredre's answer Wyatt was surprised to learn that about 7,600 newbie demon rchants actually treated their guides kindly as he had heard from Dredre that Demon rchants do not tend to treat Pixies as beings but as tools to help them navigate the library.
"How many of those Demon rchants continued to treat their guides the sa after knowing that Book Guide Pixies cannot give them any discount on the books they borrow or buy?" With this, one, could guess the point Zaltan was trying to make with this series of questions.
"One"
"What is the na of that demon rchant?"
"Dalton Wyatt."
