Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis smiled. "So, I can afford the scanner, huh?" he asked.

The seller nodded. "Yep. You can also afford something else that costs about as much. You have some pretty rare stuff there. Though, just because it's rare doesn't mean that it's useful. Rare resources from the lower world are the best materials for the Spirit Forming Realm, but nearly useless for the Unity Realm."

Gravis nodded. "I can understand that. Though, these premium resources for the Spirit Forming Realm are probably worth quite a bit for stronger people that want to get some equipment for their children, right?"

The seller laughed a bit. "Exactly, but I still need to travel quite a distance. I'm going to be honest here with you. I will sell these resources with a profit of ten times, but I have to travel to the relevant regions first."

Gravis lifted an eyebrow. "Ten times is quite a bit. It almost seems like you're trying to scam me."

The seller snorted. "The problem is that you can't find people interested in those items here. Everyone that's here either has powerful strength or a huge background. In order to sell this stuff, I need to travel to the outer fringes of the world. Do you have any idea how far away this is and how much it will cost me?"

Gravis sighed and shook his head.

"When I sell all your stuff, and I mean ALL your stuff, I would have only made a profit of two times. It's also a risk and time sink for me to travel to these regions and sell it. After all, supply is one thing, but we also need demand. That's how business works. What use are these resources if I can't find someone interested in it?"

Gravis sighed. Everything the seller said made sense. He had no way of finding out how much these resources were actually worth, so, even if the seller scammed him, Gravis had no other choice. He didn't have the luxury of time.

Also, he doubted that he would even have the resources to travel to the lands where such resources had a demand. He doubted that the teleportation department accepted every piece of rubble as long as it was worth something. They probably only accepted some kind of hard currency, and Gravis was pretty sure that he had none of that.

"Alright. I accept," Gravis said.

The seller smiled. "Good choice. Now, go choose something with similar value to the scanner, and then we can exchange."

Gravis quickly looked around, and he had found something else that was also quite interesting to him. "I'm taking that," he said as a ring floated over to him.

"Good choice!" the seller said with a smile. "As it says on the sign, this is a Life Ring. It can theoretically store any beast below the Immortal Realm, but it depends on if they willfully enter or are forced to. The deciding factor is your Will-Aura, which is incredibly powerful for your level, by the way."
