Chapter 276 Great Prices!



Chapter 276 Great Prices!

"He has the King Crocodile diamond! The crescent-shaped one!" a student exclaimed. "Those are pretty strong, but they are way harder to find than most others."

A woman shoved past him to get a peek at the dazzling items. "Screw that, kid, he has the crowned jewel of the Hydro Serpent! Those usually don't even show up in this region," she eagerly exclaimed.

The store owner paused for a few moments, speechless.

"So... what price do you think is fair for all of this?" Lyrian asked, slightly excited by the words spewing around him.

'My expectations weren't that high, but it seems luck is on my side today,' he mused to himself as the store owner opened his mouth to speak.

"I see most of these items on the daily—excluding the Hydro Serpent jewel, but to see them all in one pile is something else." He paused before giving his final price.

"The mana rubies from the Rubus Tiger's are impressive, but the least valuable items here. Usually, they go for 30 Riftstones a pop.

Since they aren't extracted perfectly, I could do 20 Riftstones, but for you, I'll double that. In total, that will be 160 Riftstones."

'Not bad,' Lyrian thought to himself, letting the store owner continue. Many gasped in astonishment and jealousy at these prizes.

"The pair of Garr horns are also very impressive. Garr's are stronger than the Rubus Tiger's, so their value is higher. They can also be used for greater endeavors. The usual price of one runs for 50 Riftstones, but, as you see, they are slightly damaged. Your lack of expertise when collecting the item is understandable, however. I will give you the two of them for 110 Riftstones flat."

"What!? 110 for damaged horns? Those don't even go for 10 at their current state, much less 55 each!" a man in line blurted out in shock.

"You have two of the Crescent Shaped Diamond Gems of the King Crocodile. One of them would go for 65 Riftstones, but again, your collecting has reduced that normal price down to 45 for normal terms."

The store owner picked both of them up, inspecting them with a monocle spyglass attached to his collar.

"One of them seems to be less damaged than the other... I will do 145 for both of them!" He slid those into the pile of items he already bought and moved on to the last one left.

"The final item... certainly not the least of the pile." His eyes seemed to glow as he picked up the crowned jewel and inspected it with the spyglass.

The red jewel sparkled in the lamp light, shimmering a vast array of colors around the shop. People were amazed by its mesmerizing beauty.

"This gem is very valuable... and it's aged to elder status!" He exclaimed, causing a few people to gasp. "This is incredible! I haven't seen anything like it from a Hydro Serpent. This crowned jewel is meant to mostly be a look-based item, due to its amazing prettiness. It is, however, also very important for more practical uses."

He paused, estimating its final worth as the crowd seemed to hold their breath in anticipation.

Lyrian was at ease, however, happy with his great deals. He knew that he wasn't getting ripped off purely by the reaction of the crowd every time a price was announced.

"Usually, something of this rarity would run for 100 Riftstones by itself. However... it's aged elder status would up that price too..." The man almost hesitated to say, "300 Riftstones."

Lyrian's eyes widened slightly as he heard that price. 'Huh!'

The store owner finally looked away from the stone and back to Lyrian. "I will buy it from you for 350 Riftstones." He proudly said with a smile. He placed the stone down into his bought pile and reached his hand over.

"In total, I have given you 205 Riftstones bonus on top of your original, raising it up to 765."

The crowd was shocked to hear this. Before they could make a peep, Lyrian reached over and shook the store owner's hand.

There was no way he was going to try and bargain here, although that was his original plan. This was too good to try and stop.

"My name is Istal. Istal Hem. I hope I can continue to serve you for what you have done for me and my family, Lord Lyrian," the middle-aged store owner said with genuine emotion behind his words. He shook Lyrian's hand tightly to express his gratitude.

"My pleasure, Sir Hem," Lyrian stated. At that moment, he noticed a pair of small eyes peek over at him from the corner. It was a young girl who carried a small teddy bear.

"Thank you... big brother," she said in a high-pitched voice. Lyrian politely smiled at her. Istal handed over a pouch of Riftstones, and before long, Lyrian made his way out of the line and back to the academy.

On his way there, he checked the pouch. "Riftstones in a pouch, huh? I didn't think they existed in real life. I wonder why they are called Riftstones..." He mumbled, opening the pouch up. Taking a look inside, he pulled out one of the Riftstones and observed it in front of his face.

"Huh," he said, unimpressed by how the stone looked. It looked like a small gray pebble with purple wording on top. The wording was engraved into the stone, and the stones were slightly different in shape. But other than that, they were all basic in form and simple-looking.

Putting the stone away, he returned to the academy. As soon as he entered his room, he noticed the shower was on again. 'That guy... all he does is play that game,' Lyrian mused, sitting down at his table.

His work for the day wasn't over just yet. Although he wanted to hop onto BF to rank up and train a bit more, his first priority was to learn about the hunting practice tomorrow. And so... he opened his textbook.
