Supremacy Games

Elder Kraken stopped behind a crowd gathering around a platform where many spirit servants were put on display...Each spirit was encapsulated in a protective sphere of energy.

None of those spirits seemed ashamed or depressed.

In fact, they were waving at the prospective buyers, seemingly wanting to allure someone to purchase them and turn them into their servants.

Felix wasn't surprised by this as servants weren't treated really as slaves in the heavenly plane, but more as loyal workers or subordinates.

As workers, they also get paid for their services on a monthly basis and obviously, the currency was non other than Lumus.

This implied that even if a spirit had the option to have multiple servants, no one would hire more than necessary unless they could afford to keep them.

Since the easiest way to obtain a consistent supply of Lumus was to become a servant for a higher spirit, everyone was selling their own selves.

"Did anyone catch your eyes?" Elder Kraken offered, "I can buy you one and pay him for one year in advance until you can afford to pay him without needing to liquidate your own color."

"Much appreciated."

Felix accepted the offer with open arms.

He understood that the worst thing he could do now was to liquidate his own color to obtain Lumus due to the depreciation of its value.

All spirits were capable of lowering their own color light intensity and transforming it into usable Lumus currency.

However, this was considered an emergency solution that no one dared to go for it unless they were truly strapped for Lumus.

This was because the value differed by at least ten times.

For example, if Felix was paid one thousand Lumus for a small job and consumed them to increase his color's intensity, if he wanted to pull out the same one thousand Lumus, he would lose ten times worth of light intensity!

The system operated like this so anyone who sought to increase their color grade, must go for it after being financially secured 100%.
