With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 1354: Not just this

After the first day, the second day was filled with the same thing.

Though this time, it wasn’t just all private meetings that Lin Fan attended.

Since it was the third day of the conference, there were certain expectations that had to be kept up. This was an event that had been known by all and was an event that many had their eyes on.

Which was why they had to at least keep up appearances by holding this kind of conference even though there was nothing important that was discussed.

No matter how one looked at it, this seemed like a place for them to simply gossip.

The way that they talked to each other, there was no tension at all. It was as if they were just here on a trip to have fun.

Though Lin Fan knew that the reason for this was because they had discussed everything in secret just like Agnus had done. There was no telling how many secret closed door meetings had been held during this time and how many more would be held.

So he understood that this was the reason why there wasn’t going to be anything important discussed in this place.

The one thing that he didn’t expect was…

“Count Lin, it is my honour to introduce you to my daughter.”

Even though it had already been established that he was the lover of the Laver Empire’s princess, it seemed that there were still people that didn’t give up. These people still tried to introduce their daughters to him.

It didn’t seem like they were trying to introduce them to him as his main wife, but rather to take as his concubine.

On this magic continent, it was normal for those in power to practice polygamy.

However, it was strange that they were this enthusiastic about giving their daughters to Lin Fan.

He might be the lover of the Laver Empire’s princess, but it wasn’t as if he would have much power on his own. Even if they became his concubine, it wasn’t as that would mean that they would have any power in the Laver Empire.

In fact, it would actually mean that they would go against that princess by seducing the lover that she took.

It was very likely that they would have earned the wrath of that princess since they were the ones that were trying to inject themselves into this relationship.

But Lin Fan knew that there was a reason that they were doing this.

The princess of the Laver Empire was considered a big fish for them since they were just nobles from smaller countries. With their status, it wasn’t as if they were qualified to meet someone like the Laver Empire’s princess.

So for them, this was a gamble.

Though it would surely lead to making a bad impression on the princess of the Laver Empire, this was a rare chance to be able to make contact with that same princess that they would normally never be able to see.

Which was why they were willing to take this risk and gamble on Lin Fan.

Though it wasn’t as if Lin Fan was interested in letting himself be used as a chess piece by these nobles. At the same time, it wasn’t as if the beauty of these girls was anything that would actually make him fall for them.

They were pretty girls, but they just couldn’t compare to the girls that had already captured his heart.

So that was why he just ignored them mostly and listened in on the conversations around him. Though it looked like he was listening to them on the surface, he really didn’t focus on what they were saying at all.

Lin Fan didn’t actually expect anything from these conversations around him since he knew that it was just idle gossip, but he found that there was more information than he thought.

Now that he had stopped being so tense about everything, he was able to think things through when he heard them.

Some of the gossip around him was just about relationships between nobles that he didn’t think was that interesting. Though when Lin Fan listened closely, he realized that there was something that he did care about.

“It seems like he’s trying to marry off his daughter to that old viscount.”

“Eh? Isn’t there a forty year difference between them?”

“What can he do when his land just isn’t fertile at all? The only thing that can grow there are those mushrooms that can be used to recover mana, but they just don’t have the same effect as mana potions.”

Lin Fan’s ears immediately perked up when he heard this and he focused on this conversation.

After all, mushrooms that were able to restore mana would certainly be useful for the cultivators of the Love Sect.

Right now, Lin Fan was providing low grade mana potions to the Love Sect since they were useful for the cultivators of the Love Sect. These low grade mana potions were more effective than the pills that they took to gather spiritual energy.

Though the nobles that had talked about this hadn’t said what kind of mana potions they were referring to, Lin Fan didn’t believe that they would be referring to low grade mana potions.

They were nobles after all, so there was a certain level of quality that they would be used to.

So if they talked about mana potions, there was no doubt that they would be referring to mid grade mana potions or even high grade mana potions.

While these mushrooms weren’t as effective as mid grade mana potions, they would certainly be more effective than the low grade mana potions that Lin Fan was currently providing the Love Sect.

So there was no doubt that these things would be considered elixirs on the cultivation continent.

At the same time, Lin Fan could hear how abundant these mushrooms were that grew on the land of this noble. It was for that reason that this noble was so desperate to sell off his daughter to begin with.

Lin Fan was someone that had the title of count in the Laver Empire and while that didn’t actually count for much in the Laver Empire, it certainly did count for something in the surrounding countries.

Being a noble of the Laver Empire, one of the most powerful empires on this magic continent was naturally a large status. With this, he would be able to contact that noble that had this abundant amount of mana mushrooms on their land.

With this, he would be able to make a deal with that noble to buy the mushrooms and bring them to the Love Sect.

His status as a count of the Laver Empire was more than enough for Lin Fan to do something like this.

So Lin Fan made mental notes about this noble so that he could have someone look into it later.

If he was able to sign a deal with this noble and create a pipeline for these mushrooms to the Love Sect, then there was no doubt that he would be able to increase their cultivation speed even more.

This was just the benefit of having the resources of an entire other continent in one’s back pocket.

After taking mental note of these mushrooms, Lin Fan started listening more closely to the other gossip around him. He knew that most of the gossip would be useless to him since it would just be gossip about random things that he didn’t care about.

However, he also knew that there would be small tidbits of information like this.

That was what Lin Fan looked out for.

When this conference was over, Lin Fan had a pleased look on his face.

It turned out that when he relaxed and listened carefully to the gossip around him, he was able to obtain quite a few things.

It wasn’t just information about the attackers from another continent that could be obtained here. There was plenty of information about the people and resources of this continent as long as one listened carefully.

That didn’t mean that the nobles of this magic continent were careless because they gossiped about such things.

This just meant that to the nobles of this magic continent, the things that they discussed weren’t really that important to them. These were things that could be considered daily occurrences to them if they gossiped about this.

But in the hands of the right person, they would be able to get quite a bit of information from all of this.

Not only that, they would be able to get resources that others would be jealous of.

This was all because of Lin Fan’s direct connection to the cultivation continent.

It really wasn’t something that anyone else would have been capable of doing.

“You seem quite pleased.” Agnus remarked as they were heading back.

Lin Fan just looked at her with a smile without actually saying anything.

Agnus looked at him in silence for a bit, but then it seemed like she didn’t really care about what he was thinking. This was the allowance that they had afforded to Lin Fan since they knew that he wouldn’t actually do anything to harm them.

Well, as long as Rokuko was there.

Instead, Agnus changed the topic by saying, “Get ready to leave.”

“Huh?” Lin Fan was caught off guard when she suddenly changed the topic like this, but his brows quickly knit when he heard what she had to say next.

“You wanted to go to that place, didn’t you? I’ve made arrangements and you head out tomorrow.”
