Chapter 1209 You are back!
A few minutes later, a group of human beings were flying over the north-eastern part of the new world.
The small group was quite odd because the group leader looked like a small child, a toddler who looked extremely adorable and cute from one angle and elegant and angelic from the other angle.
The little girl wore a simple white robe that was made of fur and looked eye-catching under the moonlight. There was some baby fat still left on her face which would make anyone looking at her want to pinch those soft white cheeks until they became red like tomatoes.
This was none other than Luna who was curiously looking around. "We are almost here, Mas-" She almost blurted out but stopped herself from saying the word Master.
From here onwards, she was going to play the part of an esteemed young lady from a mysterious faction in the myriad realms and Liam was going to be her personal guard who accompanied her everywhere.
Liam was completely covered in a black robe and his face was hidden under a hood, giving him a mysterious and formidable presence. The rest of the group followed suit, with Eldrin, Elira, and Lunaria adopting servant roles for the esteemed young lady.
As they flew, the terrain beneath them changed, revealing the diverse beauty of this part of the new world. Lush green forests gave way to rolling hills and then to rocky plateaus, each landscape holding its own unique charm and mystery.
It didn't take long for them to come here since Luna used her teleportation skill on a loop. Since most forces had one teleportation skill or the other, Liam allowed her to use it as it wasn't likely to raise any suspicion.
Finally, they reached their destination, a secluded valley nestled between towering mountains. The unmistakable signature pillar of light from the system shop shot up into the heavens from the depths.
The valley itself was bathed in the soft glow of the moon, its beauty both serene and enchanting but there was something wrong.
Strong gusts of poisonous winds gathered in the air. While these poisonous winds did not seem to be harmful to the vegetation in the area, it was clearly a potent poison for beasts and humans alike as there was no sign of any other life in the vicinity.
"Be careful, the air here is filled with poison. It's subtle but potent." Eldrin exclaimed.
"This is not a big deal." Luna snorted. The next second, she sucked in a big breath of air, removing all the poisonous winds in the area temporarily. The group then casually entered the area, directly heading to the system shop.
Liam immediately shuddered as he recognized the same inconspicuous small red brick building that once upon a time resided in their guild base. And now it was tossed aside to a nameless place in a corner of the world like it was nothing.
Liam knew that nothing was a coincidence but he did not care about that at the moment. He saw the "Flash Sale" banners hanging outside the shop and stepped in, barely containing his emotions.
As they entered the shop, the interior revealed a stark contrast to its outside appearance.
Shelves lined with a variety of items, some glowing with magical auras, others seemingly mundane but undoubtedly holding hidden properties, filled the space. The air inside was free of the poisonous winds, a safe haven in the midst of the valley's dangers.
A fairy glanced up from behind the counter. His eyes briefly showed surprise at the sight of the group, especially Luna in her child-like form, but he quickly regained his composure and greeted them with a practiced smile.
"Welcome to System Shop 133. Take advantage of our flash sale! Everything is 50% off."
Liam did not open his mouth. Instead, it was Eldrin who took charge and made the request. "Buzz off. Can't you see who we are? We don't deal with the likes of you. Get your manager here at once."
The fairy frowned but did not say anything. He silently bowed and went inside to fetch their store manager. His day was turning out to be quite bad. First, it was a bunch of arrogant assholes from who knew where.
Now, they were asking for the manager. He really did not want to face their manager at the moment. Thanks to the current situation of the shop, the woman literally chewed the person's head off if they dared disturb her.
He approached the manager's room and knocked on the door when shockingly the manager herself barged out the door like a beast let loose.
The store clerk could only see fairy dust as the woman disappeared and appeared in front of the newly arrived customers.
For a second there was a look of shock and disbelief on the manager's face, but it quickly transformed into a mask of professional courtesy. "Welcome to System Shop 133. I'm Tilia, the manager here. How may I assist you?" she asked, her tone firm yet polite.
Her gaze flitted across the group before settling on the black-hooded figure in the back and finally returning to the small child who looked ethereal.
Eldrin once again acted as the liaison as he passed a card to the fairy's hand. "We are here to make some transactions. We are in need of some raw materials. Check your stock and tell if you have these materials."
As soon as she saw the card, Tilia's eyes widened, her figure trembling from top to bottom even though she tried her best to remain calm. "Please come this way. We can discuss the matter in private."
She brought the group over silently to the tenth floor of the shop which was exclusively only meant for the VVVVIPS. The few fairies working in the shop all paid attention to the group as they passed by the store.
However, once they arrived on the tenth floor, where the elevator opened up to a private hall, there were no other eyes except for the manager, Tilia.
To everyone's shock, the manager fairy who was extremely professional up until now suddenly turned around and jumped on Liam. "You are back!"
