After some bargaining, Lynch finally bought the model for 888 Magic Stones. He couldn't get the price any lower despite repeated attempts—the seller likely had already hit their bottom line.
The vendor asked, "Why choose such a specific number? Why not round it off?"
Lynch replied, "For good luck."
The vendor clearly didn't get it but didn't delve further.
Besides the "Elemental Voidification," there were several other public templates here that caught Lynch's interest. Unfortunately, the seller's asking prices were too high, far exceeding the price at the Tower.
It made sense, though. The vendor was clearly a middleman. His supply channels were likely through a Wizard Organization authorized for external sales, with a fixed base cost, making discounts impossible.
His target customers were predominantly Wandering Wizards and Grey Wizards, those without reliable channels to acquire spells—not someone like Lynch, who came from a structured background as a legitimate White Wizard.
