SECRET N°148
Le Marchand du Crépuscule scrutait la silhouette avec intensité. Ses traits étaient invisibles dans la faible lumière, mais l'aura qui émanait de cette personne imposait un respect mêlé d'appréhension. Jamais personne n’avait osé approcher cette table sans invitation ni se tenir devant lui sans présenter de signe de richesse ou de pouvoir tangible. Il en était intrigué.
— Si vous n’avez pas d’or, alors qu’avez-vous à offrir ? demanda-t-il, la voix mesurée mais empreinte d’une curiosité calculée.
La silhouette plongea sa main dans sa longue cape noire, sortant un petit cristal lumineux. L'objet émit une faible pulsation, L'éclat particulier du cristal attira immédiatement l'attention de plusieurs observateurs dans la salle. Quelques murmures s’élevèrent, mais personne n’osait encore briser l’échange.
— Ceci, dit-elle en posant doucement l'objet sur la table devant le Marchand..
Les yeux du Marchand du Crépuscule se plissèrent légèrement. Il avait entendu parler ce cristal légendaire, une ancienne entité dont on racontait qu’elle était à l’origine même de l’énergie qui permettait de voyager à travers les étoiles. Seuls quelques-uns en avaient découvert l’existence, et ceux qui avaient tenté de la localiser avaient disparu sans laisser de trace.
— Montrez-moi, dit-il finalement d'une voix basse, presque un murmure.
Instantanément, une image holographique envahit l’espace au-dessus de la table. Ce que l'on voyait était à couper le souffle : un lieu caché dans les confins de l'univers, un champ d'énergie luminescente entourant une structure mystérieuse, probablement ce qui s'approchais le plus de l'entrée de la demeure d'un dieux lui-même.
Mais ce n’était pas tout. L’image dévoilait également une séquence, un code étrange s’animant sous forme de chiffres et de symboles inconnus, qui semblait représenter une porte d’entrée vers cet endroit inaccessible. Ce secret dépassait de loin tout ce que le Marchand du Crépuscule avait pu imaginer. Si ce code était correct, il pourrait prendre le contrôle de l'énergie brute de l'univers, surpassant même les secrets qu’il détenait déjà.
— Pourquoi me donneriez-vous cela ? demanda-t-il, son ton devenant méfiant. Qu’est-ce que vous voulez en échange ?
La silhouette se pencha légèrement vers lui.
— Je veux que vous me donniez le contrôle des transactions de cette place de marché. Je veux que chaque secret, chaque échange, passe par moi. En contrepartie, je vous livre l’accès et la promesse de pouvoir absolu.
Un long silence tomba sur la salle. Ce qu’elle demandait était audacieux, presque impensable. Le Marchand du Crépuscule avait toujours dominé cette place, en restant l’intermédiaire le plus puissant dans l’univers des secrets. Pourtant, la tentation d’accéder à un pouvoir supérieur surpassait tout le reste.
Les autres dans la salle attendaient avec une tension palpable. Le Marchand ferma les yeux un instant, pesant chaque mot, chaque implication de cet échange.
— Si je vous donne ce que vous voulez, alors vous et moi serons liés à jamais, dit-il finalement, d’une voix lente et grave. Est-ce bien ce que vous désirez ?
La silhouette sourit à nouveau, cette fois plus largement.
— Je n’ai jamais souhaité autre chose.
Le Marchand du Crépuscule savait que ce marché changeait tout. En ce moment même, les règles de l’univers étaient redéfinies.
Et ainsi, avec un simple échange de regards, le marché secret des ombres, cette bourse des secrets, allait prendre une nouvelle direction. Mais personne ne pouvait encore comprendre les conséquences de cet accord, ni jusqu’où les ambitions de cette silhouette mystérieuse pouvaient aller.
Alors que le Marchand acceptait, le cristal brillait de plus en plus fort, symbolisant l’ampleur de ce pacte qui scellerait le destin des civilisations entières.
The Twilight Merchant scrutinized the figure with intensity. Their features were invisible in the dim light, but the aura that emanated from this person commanded a respect mixed with apprehension. No one had ever dared to approach this table uninvited, nor stand before him without presenting some sign of wealth or tangible power. He was intrigued.
— If you have no gold, then what do you have to offer? he asked, his voice measured but tinged with calculated curiosity.
The figure reached into their long black cloak, producing a small glowing crystal. The object emitted a faint pulse, and the particular glow of the crystal immediately caught the attention of several observers in the room. A few murmurs arose, but no one dared to break the exchange yet.
— This, the figure said, placing the object gently on the table before the Merchant.
The Twilight Merchant's eyes narrowed slightly. He had heard of this legendary crystal, an ancient entity said to be the very source of the energy that enabled travel between the stars. Only a few had ever discovered its existence, and those who had attempted to locate it had disappeared without a trace.
— Show me, he finally said, his voice low, almost a whisper.
Instantly, a holographic image filled the space above the table. What appeared was breathtaking: a hidden place in the farthest reaches of the universe, a field of luminescent energy surrounding a mysterious structure, likely the closest thing to the entrance to a god's own domain.
But that wasn’t all. The image also revealed a sequence, a strange code animated in the form of unknown numbers and symbols, which seemed to represent a gateway to that unreachable place. This secret far surpassed anything the Twilight Merchant had ever imagined. If the code was correct, he could harness the raw energy of the universe, surpassing even the secrets he already held.
— Why would you give this to me? he asked, his tone turning wary. What do you want in return?
The figure leaned slightly toward him.
— I want you to give me control of the transactions in this marketplace. I want every secret, every exchange, to pass through me. In return, I will give you access and the promise of absolute power.
A long silence fell over the room. What the figure was asking was audacious, almost unthinkable. The Twilight Merchant had always dominated this place, remaining the most powerful intermediary in the universe of secrets. Yet the temptation of accessing superior power surpassed everything else.
The others in the room waited with palpable tension. The Merchant closed his eyes for a moment, weighing every word, every implication of this exchange.
— If I give you what you want, then you and I will be bound forever, he said finally, his voice slow and grave. Is that truly what you desire?
The figure smiled again, this time more broadly.
— I have never wished for anything else.
The Twilight Merchant knew this deal would change everything. At this very moment, the rules of the universe were being rewritten.
And so, with a simple exchange of glances, the secret market of shadows, this exchange of secrets, was about to take a new direction. But no one could yet understand the consequences of this agreement, nor how far the ambitions of this mysterious figure could reach.
As the Merchant accepted, the crystal glowed brighter and brighter, symbolizing the magnitude of this pact that would seal the fate of entire civilizations.
