Chapter 117 - Information Broker Lynhart

"It's on your monitors now. Someone named Robert sent this to a Hiragi and we got it too," said the host.

"Noice."

"Very good."

"Well done."

"Nice, care to tell how you got it," asked another person sitting near him.

The host grinned at the question and said "trade secret", and to his pleasure, no one persuaded him to tell the source of information.

After seeing the genuine screenshots of the results, all of them were thinking of ways to bring that kid to their own schools. And the one who was most interested in doing that was the lady who asked for the proof in the beginning. She was chairwoman of a big education institution known by the name of Astrex Institute of education. And the one who could help her in that was the information broker before her, known by the name Lynhart.

The world-famous information broker who could get you any to every information if you can pay the price. When everyone was pondering over different ways to make contact with Ryan, the chairwoman of Astrex Institution Of Education raised her hand. And this time she didn't wait for Lynhart's permission to speak.

"State your price, I want that kid in my school,"

Lynhart "...."

Others "...."

"What?!! You can't do it?! Or you want to make a bid for it?" she asked without reservation. She knew it very well that Lynhart loves money and information loves Lynhart, so instead of beating around the bushes she went straight to the point.

Till then others were silent, but when she saw the chairwoman throwing money to get that boy they opened their mouths, and instead of asking him the price they started a bid there, and that too on their own, without any host.

"500 million spirit stones," said a man from the shadows.

"Khekhe," laughed another person and shouted out "700 spirit stones."

Seeing the bidding getting heated all of them participated in it actively. The bidding started from 500 and stopped at 800 billion and that too by Lynhart himself. All of them were completely shocked.

The bidding was to buy information from Lynhart then why did he bid himself.

"Lyn kid are you in your right mind?" asked the man from the shadows who had bid 500 million spirit stones in the beginning.

"I am in my right mind, boss," replied Lynhart.

"Then why the hell are you..."

"I am bidding?!! Cause I want to buy that information too, from the person who is selling that information."

"....."

"Aren't you the one who is gonna sell that?" asked the chairwoman of Astrex Institute of Education.

Lynhart "...."

"When did I say that I am selling the information, I have called you all to discuss the same."

"What?!" 

"Yes, I tried to dig out his family background and other stuff and all I got is his parents name and his family net worth."

"And… What else did you get?" asked the other members in sync.

"Nothing."

"Nothing?!!"

"Yes, nothing, not even his father's DOB!!"

Analyzing Lynhart's tone of voice, others concluded that something was wrong and mysterious about that family. 'Lynhart the great information broker who could even dig out information on big families like the Hiragi's, couldn't dig out information on a family like that!!'

"So, why did you call us here?" asked another lady from the shadows.

"Hmm…. For sponsorship."

"Sponsorship!! For what?!!"

"What else do you think?"

"Oh come on Jessica," intervened another voice. "Isn't it obvious, he wants to infiltrate that school, and he wants us to sponsor him for this work."

"Oh~~"

"And I will sell the information at half the price to my sponsor, so who is up for it?"

After saying the last few lines, he was expecting to see another bidding before him. But the reality came out to be something different. Everyone, literally everyone present there, raised their hands, and proposed the idea of joint collaboration. 

According to their devised plan, everyone will pay a fixed amount of spirit stones to Lynhart and he will try to dig out Ryan's family background, and when he gets the information on hand, he will reveal that to all who have sponsored him. And for further information, the buyer's party will have to pay more to Lynhart.

While they were discussing these all Lynhart was keeping his mouth shut. In the beginning, he wanted to get a big amount of wealth from a single person, but the game changed when everybody present there agreed to pay him a lump sum amount.

He agreed to their proposal with some hesitation, but in his heart, he was laughing like a wicked demon. Thinking "victory is mine."

After the collaboration topic came to an end, another topic started about the High School tournament. The discussion was very heated and many of them were making assumptions who will win this year, and the conclusion was the Astrex Institute of Education had the most chances of winning.

"Okay, gentlemen and women, that's it for today, I will be waiting for your all transactions. Once I got the mentioned amount o spirit stones, I will start my work immediately."

"Okay."

"All right."

"Will do right now" 

"Bye~~"

"Cya~~"

"Cya~~"

Everyone said their farewell and ended the virtual conference. Even Lynhart vanished from there. Left alone in the room was a big round table and some chairs around it.

Next-Day Morning,

A news came that the Rising School Of Cultivation (RSC) was engulfed in weird energy, stopping the time of a part of the school, many became unconscious because of this but none of them were injured in any way.

Aryan saw the news on the virtual tv screen and sighed out in relief that Miss Lisa's name was not mentioned in this and she was safe from media exposures and criticisms.

It was a weekend, Saturday, and as usual, it was time for his lecture with Granny Kotori.. From the last two years, Granny Kotori and Grand Elder had been taking turns to teach him many cultivation related things.
