Chapter 46 Asking Second Wish

Rishi was working out as usual when his phone rang. He picked it up and saw an incoming call from Ajit, who asked, "Rishi, where are you?"

"I'm in the training room; why did you ask?" he replied.

"It's a serious issue. I've scheduled a meeting with Vaibhav, but he wants to meet with you right now, "Ajit stated.

"Where? Don't tell me he wants to meet in the training hall, "Rishi stated.

"No, he's in the cafeteria and would like to meet you there," Ajit responded.

"Will you also be present there?" he inquired.

"Yeah, I'm almost there," Ajit replied.

"Wait for me; I'm coming," Rishi said. He began walking towards the cafeteria and soon arrived.

He noticed a tall boy sitting next to Ajit. Rishi approached their table and took a seat.

Ajit introduced Rishi. "You've arrived on time. Meet him, Vaibhav; he is our guild leader.

"Hello, my name is Rishab," Rishi introduced himself politely.

"Let's talk about important stuff; I don't have all day," Vaibhav replied arrogantly.

"We want you to join our guild," Rishi said with an expressionless face.

Vaibhav placed his hand on his chin and remained silent for a while. "I have a better idea," he said, looking at Ajit. "I recently joined a well-known guild; why don't you and the other members join mine?"

"Vaibhav, what are you on about? You can refuse to join our guild if you don't want to, but you're asking me to betray my guild. Have you gone insane?" Ajit asked. Rishi didn't say anything; he began drinking the coffee he had ordered as if the entire conversation had nothing to do with him.

"Ajit, are you sure you're serious?"

" You want me to join this small guild and ruin my future while I'm under a junior? I've always thought you were a smart guy. What happened to your intellect?" Vaibhav asked, a disappointed expression on his face.

"Vaibhav, please leave right now," Ajit said coldly. Vaibhav stood up, paid his bill, and said, "Think about my offer, Ajit," before leaving.

Ajit was at a loss for words as he stared at Rishi's expressionless face. He had no idea Vaibhav had already joined a guild and he would react in this manner, or he had never invited him.

"I'm sorry, Rishi; I should have asked him if he has already joined a Guild," he apologized.

Rishi sipped his coffee and said, "I have faith in you. Next time, ensure the person we're inviting to join us hasn't joined a guild, and when does guild competition begin."

"It starts next week," Ajit replied.

"We don't have much time left; please arrange a meeting at Training Hall No. 85 at 6:00 p.m. today. Also, until the guild competition is over, we will not recruit any new members," he said.

"Find out which guild he joined as well. We'll say hello to him in the guild competition." An evil grin appeared on his face after he finished his sentence.

"I knew a vengeful fellow like you wouldn't let someone get away this easily," Ajit replied, smiling.

"I didn't invite him to come to insult me; it's his karma; he can't blame me," Rishi responded.

Rishi left the cafeteria after discussing some critical matters.

He quickly arrived at the training ground and began training more. He didn't show it to Ajit but was furious this time.

"It appears that hiding so much that even some nameless idiots might dare to offend you is not the best option. I also can't hide my identity indefinitely; being insulted so frequently is not worth it. I'll catch up to her in a week at most, but the real issue is that revealing my identity will also attract senior students. I cannot afford to fight everyone, which is why forming this guild is critical."

"I also require the support of my clan, but to obtain it, I must demonstrate to them that I have changed and am now worthy of their support. There's too much to do; let's start with the guild's needs."

"Oh right, Ajit asked me to arrange potions; they are essential when challenging a dungeon. Potions are very expensive; where can I get them cheaply?"

He pondered it for some time before coming up with an answer.

"From the Agastya Clan. However, I don't know anyone in the Agastya clan; they only know me through Kajal." He was deciding who to contact when he realized he still had two wishes to ask of her.

'Is there any guild leader as generous as me? Am I the only one wasting my valuable wish for my guild?' He was thinking in his head as he dialed Kajal's number.

After some time, she answered his call.

"Hello, Kajal," Rishi said.

"Who are you? And how did you get my phone number?" she inquired.

"You gave me yourself," Rishi replied.

She paused to think about it and remembered giving her phone number to a boy who assisted her in taming her second-contract beast. She expected him to call her to bother her, but he never did.

"What exactly do you want?" she asked.

"Is this how you communicate with your benefactor? I want my magic beast back as my second wish," Rishi said.

"No, I can't return it. I've already contracted it," she replied.

"You think I'm a fool. I know you don't have the contribution points to get it," Rishi replied.

"I'm ending the call if you keep talking nonsense," Kajal said.

"As my second wish, I'd like to receive a lifetime discount of 90% on potions purchased from you," Rishi said.

"No, you cannot wish for a discount from me; I will use one of my conditions," she replied.

"Do you want to squander your opportunities? I have many evil things in my mind; will it not be more useful to save them?" Rishi joked.

Rishi's remark made Kajal reconsider her decision.

"I can only give you a 10% discount at most," she said after some thought.

"Why are you so frugal? Think carefully; I will not repeat myself," Rishi said, " I am offering you some beneficial information in exchange for a 70% discount."

"First, tell me that useful information; if it is really that important, I will grant your wish," she responded.

"The useful information is that the baby magic beast I gave you is of epic grade," Rishi explained.

"Oh, really, I thought it was of legendary grade," Kajal retorted sarcastically.

"I'm not joking. It's a spark fox, not an electric fox; get it before others notice," Rishi advised.

"Next time, only call me when there's something important," she said as she hung up the phone.

"Hello, I'm not kidding; it's a spark fox. At least check it," Rishi said, but there was no response. He checked his phone and saw that she had hung up.

He sent her an email explaining that he was telling the truth.
