Chapter 144 Realm Shop

Once Raven was successfully connected to the Star Treasury's online server and logged in, he didn't waste any time and quickly clicked on the [Start Auction] section.

Whoosh!

"Let's see..." Raven squinted his eyes scarcely and after reading for a while he began to type on the keyboard, filling in the empty columns.

It was a necessary step if he wished to start an auction and sell items. Luckily, it didn't last more than 3 minutes to fill in everything.

-----------

Looking at the screen when he finished typing Raven nodded with satisfaction and smiled.

"Done."

"Let's just hope you won't regret this." Luna, who now sat beside Raven sighed softly and watched as the Ghost Trident became an auctioned item.

"Though, ten million Novas for a Legendary Grade Relic... Don't you think it's a little too much?" Luna asked with worry.

Giving a sideways glance at his little sister, Raven curved his lips with amusement and shook his head.

"Too much? Did you perhaps forget that the item we wish to sell is no ordinary Legendary Grade Relic but one that once belonged to Paloma, a legendary existence that almost killed Luck?"

"Yeah, I know that, but both her and you... Luck is considered dead. Even if you write that it once belonged to that Rotrid they will just think it's a fool's prank and laugh at it."

Raven showed a troubled expression when he thought about it and after a few seconds of contemplation, he nodded.

"You're right. Then I will do this."

Quickly, Raven typed on the keyboard and 3 seconds later he glanced at his little sister.

"Opinion?"

"Umm... I don't really understand it." Luna raised a brow as she stared at the area where the item's description was.

"Also, why did you change the Time Limit from 3 days to 5?"

"You will see the reason, don't worry." Raven laughed and clicked on the [Comfirm] button.

Whoosh!

[Your Auctioned Item: Ghost Trident had been successfully placed in our market!]

"Perfect."

Raven stood up after seeing the notification and after logging out and shutting off his laptop he used his knee to break the device into two and throw it off the cliff.

Luna watched with her beautiful violet eyes the falling of the now broken device and once it vanished from sight she looked at Raven.

"What now? Do you want to complete some missions and test your new Artifact out?"

"I want, but before that, I still have a few things to do," Raven stated as he took out a small red ticket from his Void Ring.

"I will go and do a little "business" with a friend."

Luna raised a brow when she heard Raven's words and under her confused gaze, Raven grabbed the ticket at both ends and ripped it.

Whoosh!

The scenery around Raven shifted and changed, turning into a beautiful room filled with all kinds of goods such as books, scrolls, sets of armor, weapons, and many more!

The whole place looked rather similar to the Backrooms with the sole exception that the Realm Shop was a large circular room while the Backrooms was akin to an infinite hall with seemingly no ends.

"Welcome back, little bird. How can I help you?"

Raven smiled hearing the familiar voice and said, "I wish to sell items for Astral Cores."

"Oh? What kind of?" Dinas asked curiously as usually, people visited his Realm Shop, especially his higher floors to buy and not to sell.

"These." Raven waved his hand and summoned several items before him.

A beautiful greenish dagger, a set of boots, a black cloak with a metallic luster, a gold bracelet, and 4 small almost completely transparent crystals.

"Oh?" a surprised gasp escaped Dinas' mouth when the items appeared on the wooden desk.

"Are you sure you wish to sell all these? Especially the dagger? That was your first weapon, which even at this moment, can be considered as a priceless treasure in your world thanks to its traits."

"Perhaps because it can be used even outside Realms, yes, it can be considered a priceless treasure, however, now it has become useless." Raven sighed.

Dinas just hummed quietly as he seemed to understand why Raven said what he did.

"I see, then, if you wish to sell all that it will be a total of... 2,750 Astral Cores."

'As I thought...' Raven sighed and nodded.

Whoosh!

[Astral Cores: 8,679]

"Hey, how many Avatar Flasks do you have?" Raven asked calmly after he checked his wealth.

"It depends on what kind of Avatar Flask you seek. Normal or Mixed Avatar Flasks?"

"Let's say both." Raven shrugged.

"Well, I have several thousand but, before you think you can buy several just because you have over 8,000 Astral Cores, you can only buy 5 at a time."

"Huh? For real?" Raven asked with surprise.

"Yeah, sorry little bird, but this is the rule."

'Damn it! If I would have known this I wouldn't have gifted the other three tickets away!'

Raven almost felt like crying, however, as he couldn't force Dinas to break his own rules he could just sigh helplessly. As for taking back the other Realm Shop Tickets he gave away... He was not that shameless.

"Then I want the 5 best Avatar Flasks you can sell to me." Raven sighed.

"As you wish." Dinas laughed and with colorful light, Raven watched as 5 bottles appeared before him.

-------------

[Avatar Flask: Mixed Traits]

? Description: By drinking the fluid from within this bottle, all of your Traits will increase by 6!

? Price: 750 Astral Core

-------------

Raven's eyes widened when he read the description of the bottle before a smile formed on his face.

"I will take these," Raven said and without a second thought paid 3,750 Astral Cores for the 5 Avatar Flasks.

After that, as he still had over 7 minutes before he was kicked out Raven decided to look around, perhaps finding something interesting.

However, he didn't.

'Except for Avatar Flasks, the Realm Shop is partially useless... Or at least for me. I should focus on recharging my Backroom Keys.'

With another sigh, Raven gave another glance at all the items around him before he raised his head toward the ceiling.

"Hey, about what you have told me in the past, it turned out to be true."

"Oh? But... Then how are you... alive?" Dinas' usually carefree voice suddenly became stiff when he heard Raven's words.

Back in the Backrooms, he warned Raven about Etia as he was pretty much sure she would attempt to kill him now that he was back. However, as to when or how he didn't know, he just knew that she will definitely attempt murder.

"I don't know, to be honest. She wished to crush me alive and turn me into a meat paste within the Empty World, but weirdly after a stranger told her not to she changed her mind."

"A stranger?" Dinas mumbled quietly before he gasped with utter disbelief.

"So even he knows about you... This is not good."

"He? Who are you talking about?" Raven raised a brow in confusion.

However, Dinas didn't reply to him immediately and just sighed, giving one an impression he was shaking his head.

"Not yet... It's better if you don't know it yet. However, I advise you to start growing faster and focus on unsealing your second seal. Furthermore, just by looking at you, I can tell you have yet to unearth the true potential of your powers, so you should do just that before it will be too late."

"Unseal my Second seal? How? Also, true potential? What are you talking about?" Raven asked with a deep scowl.

"That is something you have to figure out yourself. Now then, your time is up, you should get going."

And even before Raven could open his mouth to speak, crimson light engulfed his body and teleported him back to the edge of the cliff.

"You're back." Luna showed a smile before her pretty face turned puzzled.

"Huh? What's with that face?"

Raven, who stood still with a deep frown on his face glanced at her little sister and opened his mouth, only to close it shortly after.

"Nothing. I was just thinking."

"Is that so?" Luna tilted her head cutely to the side as she pondered silently.

"Yeah. Though, it's about time we get going. It's getting a little cold." Raven said as he shifted his gaze to the side and shivered scarcely.

Right now, the sun was halfway behind the horizon and the temperature has become rather chilling, especially for those like Raven who wore nothing but a short and t-shirt outside.

'It seems the winter is slowly approaching...'
