Hye didn't find it surprising for her to guess this far. After all, he ca from a world of apocalypse without any backing or support. And it seed to not be a secret how the strong races dealt with others, trying to limit their overall growth and such to keep them under leash.
And with his silence, she took that as an agreent. "So… You must be desperately looking for U. stat crystals, right? You have tons of forces and people, yet they are all weak and considered at the lowest level in the universe, correct?"
He kept his silence again, and she didn't seem like she was bothered by it.
"It's your lucky day then," she chuckled as if she scored sothing big, "in the outer sector, such crystals are commonly sold. Yet to purchase a huge amount of them needs real fortune. And I know, you have your bones, and you are mighty and all, but there is a law to prevent over-purchasing to enable lots of people to have what they need."
"I can't buy what I need from here?!" Hye was surprised by what she said. He thought the only problem in front of anyone was money, and now he realised there might be sothing else.
"Of course not! If they let anyone at the outer sector buy what they need, they won't suffice all of their needs and the prices will grow to a scary level. Not to ntion this will greatly impact the balance in the universe and lots of forces won't be happy about this. In addition to that, the number of crystals the world has isn't even enough to let one percent of the people coming here to purchase freely."
"Does such a limitation only apply to the outer sectors?" Hye got what she ant, and he didn't find any of these reasons weird. Yet he also got that such limitations were only applied at the outer sectors.
"That's expected, after all those coming to the inner sectors are considered custors with deep pockets. And they aren't there just to purchase the low-grade goods like the crystals."
"I understand," Hye paused, looking around before adding, "let's find a way to get into the inner sectors then."
"Follow ," the lady nymph smiled in a charming way. Before Hye would move a muscle, she moved swiftly and landed by his side, grabbed his arm and surrounded it with hers, "let's go as a couple then. This will solve lots of problems later on."
"Problems like what?" Hye didn't believe what she said and rolled his eyes in response. And yet she was shaless enough to smile and say nothing.
Hye knew she was bluffing, but he didn't say anything to stop her. He knew it was futile to stop what she was adamant at doing. So, he decided to let it go and enjoy the mont.
The two walked towards one group of rchants who were surrounded by the fewest number of people. Hye didn't mind this, as he didn't want to stay for long inside the outer sector.
"There are just fewer people here than anywhere else," Hye stood at a shorter line than other places with rchants doing business there. I think you should take a look at
"It's because these rchants deal with stolen goods only," what the lady nymph said made him freeze in his spot, not moving an inch. "What's wrong? Co on, they won't bite."
"Why are we going to et them?" Hye looked around, didn't even take a single step forward even when the line started to move, "we can wait at any other line."
"No need, they deal with stolen goods but it's not that illegitimate," the lady nymph chuckled, placing her palm over her slightly opened mouth, "there isn't a problem in dealing with them."
"How so? These goods are all stolen!" Hye didn't find anything funny in what she was saying. At the sa ti, he didn't get how she could consider purchasing stolen goods to be ok, and in the middle of the day like this!
"As you can see, they are allowing it," she laughed again, "these goods are stolen, but the criminals are already captured and in prison. They are ownerless, and so the big rchant groups are taking their share and selling them."
"Ah, it's different this way," Hye was starting to change his viewpoint about this world if these goods were really stolen. This would better suit a dark place or a den of thieves, not sothing that would be part of such a great place.
"Let's go," she led the way. And they didn't need to wait for long. When Hye was puzzled by how swiftly the exchanges that went before with the last custors were, he realised the reason the mont he arrived in front of one of the rchants.
He was wearing the sa attire as others in this place, with a logo over their chests. The mont he stood in front of that rchant, he was surprised to see the logo was in fact an exchange interface.
It was black before, yet now it appeared like a turned off screen. "Please touch the interface and everything we offer is there," the rchant said, "if you want to exchange anything, it will automatically happen without the need to do anything with ."
"Thanks," Hye realised that he had to touch that screen then an interface would pop up, "what if I want to use a different thod of paynt than the coins?"
"This…" the rchant was startled for a second there. Yet when Hye took out one bone, the face of that rchant froze for an entire minute.
"This… Isn't this the legendary bone of that human? How many do you have? We are open to purchase the entire amount you have."
"Well… If you are dealing with , the human you just ntioned, then I doubt you can even buy a speck of what I have," Hye was satisfied by such a response. And that made it much easier for him to make a na for himself.
