Chương 923: 923 Your taste sucks, just like your face!

Liam stopped staring at the angry fairy and once again looked at the prices. They were still the same. The discount was still there. He couldn't believe it.

It was one thing for the skills to be on offer or something similar and listed at a reduced price, just like every other retail store, but the discount here was… an unbelievable 90%!

All the skills were actually listed at 90% off!

This meant that the 1 million mana core healing skill now only cost 100, 000 mana cores.

"What the hell is this?" Liam laughed at the unexpected surprise.

No wonder the store manager looked like she was ready to murder him! Anyone would be pissed off if they were forced to sell their stock for such huge discounts!

"Hmmm… that should indeed be the case."

Liam was quite sure that it was not the fairy's idea to do such a thing.

Perhaps because the second wave was more difficult than it should have been, this new sale had popped up to provide some sort of help to everyone on earth?

Well, he did not really care about the reason.

Liam grinned. Since there was a sale going on, it was time to go on a shopping spree! He was going to utilize this unexpected surprise fully!

He looked at the fairy in front of him and emptied all the mana cores he had in his spatial artifact, even the higher-grade ones that had an exchange rate of about 10000 per mana core.

It took some more time, but in the end, the grand total came to a whopping total of 355, 000. He could buy not one but 3 skill books with this!

Liam's gaze hurriedly ran through the big list of skills. From that, he quickly picked out three that were no-brainers.

First was the [Lesser Heal] skill which he had already decided. Next was the [Lesser Cleanse] skill, as their next plan of action would mainly need this skill, and for the last one, he selected a utility skill for himself, [Stealth].

Just like [Inspect], it was also very hard to gain actual insight into [Steath] skill and learn it on one's own efforts.

In fact, all three [Lesser Heal], [Lesser Cleanse], and [Stealth] were even listed by the system as uncommon skills, thereby acknowledging the difficulty in learning them. So they were definitely worthwhile investments.

"I will learn this one and take these two to go." Liam smiled at the fairy after confirming his choices.

"Mr. Liam, are you sure? If you purchase the skills as skill books, then there is a chance that they could be stolen from you. Purchased skill books are not bound to the customers. It is better to learn them right away. I would strongly advise you to do that." The fairy quickly explained.

Liam smiled, "That's fine. I will keep an eye out for these robbers."

"Confident, are we?"

Liam turned to see Tilia once again walking over to him, and her mood hadn't gotten any better. The other fairy meanwhile retrieved the two skill books and handed them over to Liam.

"Are you not submitting any more quests?" Tilia asked him again.

"It seems like you have a handle on everything and even managed to gather quite a lot of mana cores."

The fairy's eyes glittered as she gazed coldly at the two books in Liam's hands. It was almost as if she did not want to let go of them.

Liam ignored her and calmly placed the books in the backpack he was carrying.

Tilia frowned at his actions for a moment, and her gaze met Liam's. This time he did not break and continued staring at her, making the fairy quite uneasy.

She quickly cleared her throat and came back to the main point.

"As I was saying, shouldn't you have some Orichalcum handy with you?"

"Hmmm. I do have some." Liam calmly replied, making the woman's face twitch.

"And?" Tilia asked again.

"I am just not interested in giving it up." Liam chuckled. He could see the fairy visibly becoming angrier, but that couldn't be helped. This only told him that his decision was correct.

The metal was far more valuable than a simple shop reputation quest! There was no way he was going to submit it now!

Instead, Liam took out another object from his backpack.

"I am not selling any Orichalcum for now, but I do have these that I am looking to exchange. What will you offer?"

Tilia bit her lips and looked at the object in Liam's hand. Of course, it took her only one glance to recognize it. It was an ison egg.

Immediately her frown deepened.

"You want to trade this?" Her eyes twitched as she took the egg in her hands and returned it back to Liam.

"This is just trash!" She coldly shot him down.

Welp. Liam shrugged. He had another egg in his possession, so he took that one also out just to make sure both were useless.

"What about this?" He asked the fairy, who for a moment looked as if she was shocked.

However, the next second she cleared her throat and gave the same response.

"Also useless. Get this trash out of here before that ugly thing hatches."

"That's too bad. I really thought these could at least be useful as some cooking ingredients." Liam chuckled and shook his head before putting away both of the eggs.

"They are poisonous," Tilia grumbled before walking away.

"Who the heck would eat something poisonous and stinky like this? Your taste sucks, just like your face."

Not in the least bothered by it, Liam laughed at her remark as he took the next item. He was not done yet.

"What about this?" He showed the other object from his spatial artifact and asked the fairy.

And this time… as Tilia turned and glanced at the thing in Liam's hand, the stunning fairy stood frozen like a statue right in the middle of the shop!
