Sword God in a World of Magic

Surprisingly, Shang didn't grab the five Mana Crystals immediately.

"I want to exchange them," Shang said evenly.

The Keeper pulled her hand back. "For what?"

"Mind Flow Pellets," Shang said.

The Keeper slowly turned her head and looked at the bandages around Shang's head.

That was just the natural instinct of wanting to have eye contact with someone while talking about something more serious.

The Keeper looked at Shang silently for three seconds.

"Fine," she said, turning around again. "It's not my duty to question what you do with your reward. What kind of Mind Flow Pellet do you want?"

"Grade Six," Shang said.

When House Wife and Trapper heard that, they took a deep breath in shock.

White Ghost sure knew what it meant to buy the good stuff!

"I need five more Grade Six Mana Crystals," the Keeper said, extending her hand to Shang.

SHING!

Shang summoned five additional Grade Six Mana Crystals and handed them over.

These ten Grade Six Mana Crystals were everything Shang currently earned in terms of money.

He had gotten three Grade Six Mana Crystals by getting rid of the Lenner Family, five by getting rid of the Martis Family, and two for a couple of smaller missions.

Usually, Shang would have needed to work several years for that much money, but the two missions regarding the Lenner and Martis Families had come at just the right time.

The Keeper pocketed all ten Mana Crystals and closed her eyes while looking towards the lake.

No one said anything for several minutes.

WHOOOM!

Suddenly, a small grey portal appeared in front of the Keeper.

She summoned nine of the ten Mana Crystals and threw them into the portal.

A second later, a small flask came out of the portal before it closed again.
