Hearing Aba"s words Agatha was enlightened, she finally understood why the card creationist wasn"t willing to negotiate and was being unreasonable making things difficult for her, it seems the card creationist wanted something else from her. Agatha who has already dealt with the card creationist knew he was not short of money with the southern emperor for his sugar mama. She should have known better than to reason with him with soul jades on the line. If not money then what?


Agatha recalled that she still owned the card creationist two favors. One was to act as his bodyguard while he attacked his rivals and another was saved for the future. Thinking of this Agatha realized that though the young card creationist was not interested in soul jades she could offer her services to him. The thought of acting as a hired goon for a teenager made Agatha feel ashamed but she knew that the only way she could get the Multi-Armed Butcher cards for her business ventures from him was by promising him some favors. Reaching a quick conclusion Agatha suddenly compared her situation to making a deal with the devil.


"Master Wyatt, as the princess said, if there is a way for you to lower the price of the cards please state them, I will try my best to satisfy them." Hearing Agatha, Aba felt happy that she could be of some help.


"Well, how about instead of paying me with soul jades you pay me shares in your business venture." The idea of having a semi-demiG.o.d bodyguard was tempting but I already had Anna and her subordinates watching over my protection so hiring Agatha would be waste of resources. So instead I asked for shares in her company.


"Shares?" Agatha blurted in confusion but then she realized that the young card creationist was asking for a piece of her cake which she hadn"t even prepared yet. Agatha was angry, she had the right to be so and could not help but feel that this profiteer had a big appet.i.te to ask for shares in her company.


"Yes, paying with shares. This way you save a lot of your funds as I am investing those cards in your business." I nodded and answered looking straight at Agatha"s eyes.


"..." Agatha was too furious after hearing the young card creationist"s bold claim, in order not to ruin the negotiation which has finally shown some progress Agatha tried to control her anger and did not reply immediately.


As Agatha"s anger decreased she felt that paying with shares instead of paying with soul jades was not a bad idea because this way she will have way more funds in her hands left to make other arrangements for her company. And off chance her business venture was to fail, she wouldn"t be the only one losing money. Therefore she started considering the young card creationist"s advice.


But then Agatha realized that there was a huge trap in this method of payment, the valuation of her business. If the young card creationist was going to invest in her company by providing the multi-arm butcher cards then he will definitely ask the shares equal to the price of his cards which was okay but the problem was her business hadn"t even started yet. So how was she supposed to announce the valuation of a business that was just an idea, that was intangible. She could make a very high valuation for her business and give the young card creationist a few shares in exchange for his cards but Agatha knew better than that, having worked with the young card creationist she knew better than to underestimate his capability and undermine his greed. As a greedy profiter, there was no way he would be happy with just a few shares in her company.


"Okay, Wyatt. I like your idea but how do you plan to do this?" Despite knowing the greed of the opposite party Agatha decided to continue the negotiation to see where it lead.


"Simple, I will provide you the cards along with free repair and maintenance services. In return for 80 percent of share in the company." Since I was providing for tools and their maintenance, there was nothing left for Agatha to do except for the location and management part. Therefore I felt that asking for 80 percent shares in the company was justifiable.


"..." Hearing her friend"s demands to her retainer Aba held her head in disbelief. Even she felt that her friend was being greedy.


"Nope, you will get 30 presents of share any more than that then I better put my time into doing something else which I can call mine." Agatha realized she still end up underestimating the greed of the profiter card creationist. If she were to give up 80 percent of her company shares then can she still call it her company? Agatha wanted to leave but she held back because negotiation was where the real action was, here you fight for what you want. If you don"t reach how do you know if you can get it or not. Therefore despite the difference in their opinions, she put forward her offer.


"30 percent? That seems fair to you? I am providing for tools and their maintenance all you have to do is run the business and you dare to ask for 70 percent shares." I said.


"The company is mine, I do not need to ask for 70 percent shares, I am offering you 30 percent share." Agatha frowned hearing the profiter card creationist"s words which made it sound that it was his company, not hers.


"Agatha, you seem to be under a wrong impression. You are not offering me anything, you are asking me." I said while glaring at Agatha because without my cards there wouldn"t be a company, to begin with.


"I am under the wrong impression? Wyatt, let me hear it. What makes you feel that you are under the right impression. Please enlighten me." Agatha sneered as she said these words.
