Chapter 717 - The Mysterious Shop (1)



Chapter 717

(Unedited)

The Mystique Blacksmith shop… that is what they decided to name the blacksmith shop which has now opened its doors to the public.

Hans Jung is still the blacksmith, with his wife Lyn Xuan, who has already given birth to a healthy baby boy, on the counter. Their daughter Eva Jung would be the one taking care of the customers who would enter the shop.

In fact, the whole shop was renovated by Shin Jiao and now looks like a two-story gallery. The two-floored building looks the same on the outside, but once the customers enter, they would be greeted by a spacious lobby.

Because she is hiding from the high lord, Alea Zin stayed in the underground facility, which is, for now, the safest place for her.

After Shin Jiao and the family of three known her situation, they decided to just help her out since she has also helped them.

And so a new blacksmith shop appears in the town inconspicuously.

The first day was really quiet with people only passing by and did not enter. This is because they have been used to seeing this closed blacksmith shop for a few months already and didn\'t actually know that it is already open for business again.

Well, Shin Jiao seems to prefer it this way, as this is only the first day of their business and he didn\'t want to garner attention yet.

Later that day, he walks out of the back room of the blacksmith shop with a smile plastered on his face.

"It\'s done… the formation is already installed. If ever those from the Mills would cause us to trouble then, they would have to send their strongest fighter to break this array." Shin Jiao said with confidence.

Hearing his words, the Jungs felt relieved and happy at the same time.

The array would be able to protect the building and the people inside it, as long as they are wearing the wooden badge crafted by Shin Jiao.

They busied themselves in checking the stuff they are going to sell today while waiting for their first customer.

They waited and waited, but still, no one came to the shop. At first, Eva Jung was all smiles and practices her scripts and also memorizes the products and their prices. She also began to be hopeful that their new store would be able to sell more and be productive. She wanted to be of use to Master Si Ji.

Her eyes subconsciously drifted towards where Shin Jiao is currently standing and talking to her father. Finding herself looking at the young man, a blush appears on Eva Jung\'s beautiful face. She didn\'t know why, but she found him really handsome and very attractive as the days went by. She would sometimes find herself looking at the skies and think of him.

But she would not dare show this to him. He is the benefactor of her family, the master of her father, and their savior, how could she be bold enough to say her feelings towards him? She thought that she is not worthy of such a talented young man.

She suddenly realized that he is not even older than her. He is just around 4 years old. But of course, age is not an issue in the immortal land.

While still in a daze, the door of the shop suddenly swung open.

Then a small and cute face peeks inside with her eyes suddenly growing wide.

"Ehhh!!! What is this? How? How is this place looking like this?" the small voice coming from the new person who just entered the shop reverberated in the air.

Then without warning, that small figure suddenly dashed towards a showcase with different trinkets lying on a red cloth inside a display counter.

"Wow! There are so many beautiful accessories! I want one… Hihihi..." the young woman said with excitement clearly written all over her face.

Seeing their first customer, Eva Jung immediately approached, and like she practiced, greeted the young woman and introduced herself while curtsying. She then began to introduce the objects in the display counter, their properties, and functions.

While hearing her words, the eyes of the young woman are already bulging in disbelief.

"Wait! Wait… you said that this beautiful moon earring has the ability to strengthen the destructive effect of my spell while consuming the same amount of energy, right? I want to see, I want to try them… if you are telling me the truth, then I want to buy it no matter how much it costs…" the young woman suddenly interrupted.

Eva Jung smiles and immediately nodded her head to her mother.

From her position, Lyn Xuan suddenly opens the display screen on the surface of the table, and then she scanned the items and found the moon-shaped earrings. Upon choosing the object a small box suddenly appears inside the drawer below.

As she immediately takes the box and then courteously handed it to her daughter. Eva Jung politely gestured for the young woman to follow her. They went to a small space on the side.

"Please stand in here and wear these earrings." Eva Jung said as she handed the small black box to the young woman.

After putting on the earrings, the young woman suddenly shifted her gaze to a spot where there is a target dummy. When her body suddenly manipulated the universe\'s energy, a thin transparent energy barrier suddenly surrounded and isolated the area.

Then she suddenly released her energy to the target.

Ka-Boom!!!

A loud explosion rocked her spot but it did not affect the whole shop. They just heard a slight popping sound while looking at the spot.

When the young woman wanted to go out, she discovered that the barrier is still up.

"Miss, remove the earrings first and return them to the box…" Eva said with a smile.

The young woman immediately realized that this is a protection array of the store to prevent thievery. So she just follows and then walks out of the barrier.

"I will buy this… how much…"

The first customer of the shop walks out with a wide grin on her face. The mother and daughter pair has calm smiles on their faces, but in truth, their hearts were shaken.

Who would have thought that the thing that they thought was overpriced and impossible to be sold as easily disposed of in an instant?

The shop decided to use the local currency of the town of Gipard which is also used by the Osmond clan, the Osmond credit.

The value of Osmond credit is around 5 Osmond credit per level 1 power core. One Osmond Credit is in a form of a single thumb-size black coin. These black coins have special arrays on them which would make it hard for them to be copied by anyone.

And the value of these coins would always be equal to the value of its materials, so it is still not worth copying it as it would be a waste of time and energy.

And right now, there are at least fifty thousand banknotes of Osmond Credit on the counter. And this is almost equal to the whole year of income their family before. This made the mother and daughter pair to be really astonished and still could not believe what just happened.

Shin Jiao has seen this and just showed a faint smile on his face. Hans Jung on his side also showed the same expression as his wife and daughter.

"Hey, that\'s only the beginning, don\'t be too happy. Let\'s get back to work…" Shin Jiao said while patting the broad shoulders of Hans Jung.

"Yes… yes young master…" he unconsciously replied.

Shin Jiao felt helpless, but he could not do anything about it as these three people have already called him as such ever since he helped them. No matter how hard he tries to convince them to just call him Si Ji, they would not agree, so he just let it be.

The two went back to work on the things Shin Jiao wanted to make for another prototype product.

For months he has been working on this plan, and he knew that if this would work, then he would be able to create another gear that would be helpful for him in the war.

Although there was a stalemate, he knew that it would soon be over once those two races could devise a plan and figure out the weakness of the cannons, or if those two races could also create a weapon of their own to counter the threat of those powerful energy cannons.

Not long after their first customer left, another one enters but did not buy anything. The young man just looks at the products on the shelves and would sometimes frown. But then after a long while, he left.

Although only a single item was bought today, the shop was still hopeful that tomorrow another customer would come and visit them.

Meanwhile, the young woman who bought the moon shape earrings immediately decided to wear those earrings that night.

She is actually one of the special enforcers of the town and that morning was the time that she decided to spend her last day of vacation. Who would have known that a random shop that looks old on the outside but looks amazing on the inside would have such an item?

And so, without a second thought, she bought the earrings.

That night, she and her team went out on patrol.

As they reached the edge of the forest, she suddenly feels some strange tingling in her ears. Then she suddenly remembers the words that sales personnel named Eva Jung explained to her.

"… beside the power boost, the earring would be able to sense any presence of any creature besides humans…"

Upon realizing this, she immediately called out her conjecture to the leader of their team.

"Are you sure about this?" the young leader asked with suspicion.

He didn\'t want to believe what his subordinate said, but as a soldier, he knew that these kinds of things are possible. So without a second word, their group retreated to a place and hid in ambush.

Not long after that, they soon heard some footsteps on the ground.

As one of their teammates who are an expert in reconnaissance and tracking listened to the ground, his expression changes. His face began to pale as he counted the possible number of their opponent.

When he reported the number of enemies coming towards them, everyone was silent. The leader of the patrol group looks at the young woman and showed her a grateful smile.

The young woman subconsciously stroked one of her moon-shaped earrings and showed a shy yet happy smile on her beautiful face.
