Frank went back to his home, as he realized not much time at all had passed, barely a few seconds.
He had taken a very short trip to another world without even realizing it, but it seemed that there was a whole new world there to explore, so he might return soon to look for a way to acquire an item that could work on Ryujin.
That girl he had meet named Luca Shelter seemed mysterious, but she also seemed to be a native of that world who knew a lot about items and stuff. It surprised him that his first interaction with a person would be by selling an item to them.
"Maybe I should make a soul clone and leave it in there so I can be in various places at once… This way I can sell stuff in the background while I do other stuff here… Though that might also be problematic if things get a bit too confusing if I have to control so many bodies… Perhaps I should just go back there personally… Ah, the opportunities to make money are big…"
Frank had realized thanks to the System's help that coins of the world of Gaia could be exchanged for App Points 1 Coin was actually 100 App Points, and vice versa. Unlike the currency of this world, it seemed that Coins in this world held some sort of power within them, there was something that made them valuable, and the System converted this value into App Points, the same way Frank can also acquire App Points by "selling" Mana Cores from Terra.
By getting Mana Cores and equipment drops from Orb's Dungeon, which had become the sole dungeon in all of Terra as of now, after she absorbed all the planet's Dungeons, he can exchange them in the App Shop for App Points, however, the higher rarity Mana Cores and equipment always are rarer and take more time to get, so he cannot simply grind endlessly and get millions in a day, usually 5 Mana Cores at Rank 10 in half a week would be lucky.
And even then, they could be repurposed for other better things, such as the crafting of new items and more, or to fuel all sorts of magic technology within the interior of his divine realm…
However, even then, shouldn't he be able to rack even more App Points than he originally had? Well, he had discovered some time ago that selling valuable items into the App Points Shop had a monthly limit, so he couldn't sell all he had, and had to earn more App Points this way gradually and slowly.
The shop also had a limit of how many items of the same time it could sell, some items even had a limit of 1 per year… so it wasn't going to be easy for him unless he did some weird time skip shenanigans, but that wasn't how this story was going to go.
For example, most of the Divine Materials he brought, which he planted around his divine realm, had a limit of one per year, this is why he wasn't able to cover half his continent with Blazing Phoenix Feather Tree Forests to gain a lot of fire attribute particles… he had to slowly buy different types of divine materials and plant them around, but they were quite expensive as they went up.
As of now, divine materials fitting for his current Realm would cost above the million, and he barely had around nine million App Points… He had to find ways to make App Points quicker.
He knew there various ways, exchanging valuable materials infused with magic could do, but most of them didn't sold above 1k, and he needed to move millions, even more, he couldn't sell thousands of them, most materials had a max between one hundred or one thousand he could sell per month
Therefore, he was only able to sell a thousand Rank 1 Mana Cores, Rank 2 Mana Cores, and so on, each one classified as a different item, although no matter where they originated from, they would sell for the same amount of App Points.
Rank 1 Mana Cores can be sold for 1 App Point, Rank 2 for 10, Rank 3 for 30, Rank 4 for 50, Rank 5 for 70, Rank 6 for 90, Rank 7 for 150, Rank 8 for 300, Rank 9 for 500, and Rank 10 for 1000…
And each one had a limit of one thousand per month that could be sold into the App Shop… so he had a lot of Rank 1 to 5 Mana Cores, the most common rarities, which he couldn't make into App Points.
And from Rank 7 to 10, they would become very rare, and there was no way he could get a thousand of each rarity in a single month even if he left an army of Undead constantly killing monsters.
Magic Crystals that originated from Earth and had rarities also acted the same, so he wasn't able to get the best he could get out of it, well, he could still sell them off for Earth's money and more.
Nonetheless, he still had a lot of App Points he accumulated by selling all sorts of other materials dropped in the dungeon, and he had kept a steady income, he also gains bonus App Points by leveling up, changing classes, and completing Quests, so there's plenty of places where he can get them.
He was also earning a daily income of App Points which were from the conversion of divine energy that he gained from worship as a god within his divine realm and Terra, he didn't liked this though, as Frank was too humble to be happy over being considered a god by the people, but they didn't listen to him and since a long time that he had been worshiped, many people even prayed to him, so he was gaining App Points without limits from this conversion of energies, which was several hundred of thousand a month.
But that wasn't enough, for sure, even a planet's worth of believers wasn't enough!
