Chapter 797 - Shopping


    The upper floor of the Urb region within Alfa City was known to be the ce for leisure. The massive entertainmentplex spanning over a hundred miles with a myriad of establishments was renowned to be the best ce to visit if one wanted a vacation.


    In order to go to the main district, where many famous shops were located, they had to head to the middle floor.


    Emery and Silva took another ride via the vehicle towards the mountain area and entered one of the caves. There, they had to go through another round of security check, where their vehicle was scanned thoroughly, before being allowed to pass through and arrive at apletely different ce.


    Emery could only describe it as dazzling, to say the least. It was as if living in a city at night, which had a sky full of twinkling and glittering stars shining over them. A huge city with hundreds of towering buildings that almost reach the sky and emitted millions of colorful lights.


    Thousands of vehicles simr to the one they were traveling in were seen flying around the ce in a hurry. Under Silva''s direction, the magus driving vehicle took them to one of the big domes located in the center of this ce.


    Afternding, just like before, two of the magus stayed on board, while another two apanied Emery and Silva as they entered the ce.


    The small group entered through a door that automatically opened itself when it detected something nearby. As soon as they entered, a figure swiftly approached to wee them.


    "Wee, Silva Ouroboros. We, the staff of Alfa ster store, thank you for your visit today. I am Xiana 13, and I will be your attendant for the day. Please follow me." The figure spoke in a polite manner.


    It was a young woman with long, beautiful purple hair. However, even though she spoke and moved like a human, Emery could quickly tell from the faint lines on her face and arms that she was actually a machine, ormonly known as an android.


    The two of them were led into an empty white room.


    As soon as they arrived and stood in the center of the room, the room''s interior quickly changed. Hundreds, if not thousands, of holographic panels rapidly appeared on rows.


    With his spirit reading, Emery quickly knew that those panels were all virtual. However, he was taken back when the panels felt real when he touched them. It was as if they really existed in reality.


    The attendant turned around and shed a smile, before saying, "We, Alfa Ster store, have millions of diverse products avable for purchase. Esteemed guests, what can I help you with today?"


    At this question, Silva turned her head and looked at Emery. "I am actually in need of a new weapon right now, so let''s start with mine. This way, you can see and understand how all this works."


    After seeing Emery nod his head, Silva returned her attention to the purple-haired android again.


    "I want to see artifacts, weapons, swords."


    Emery was silent and just watched Silva do her shopping. He had no intention of buying a sword for himself, but was very interested to see what was about to happen. Therefore, he kept rapt attention.


    The attendant smiled when she heard Silva''s words and her hand began to move in the air.


    A momentter, hundreds of rows of holographic panels disying images of various types of items disappeared and were reced by rows of images of swords.


    Seeing this, Silva spoke again. "Xiana, show us those of Tier 4 and Tier 5 only."


    "As you wish," was the reply from the purple-haired android.


    At the same time, the several rows of panels changed again. Within each panel were still images of swords, but the descriptions and exnations contained therein were different from before.


    Every holographic panel that floated in Emery and Silva''s left side was filled with images of tier 4 swords. Meanwhile, their right side was more or less the same, swarmed with hundreds of tier 5 sword images.


    Tier 4 weapons were considered as the standard for rank 9 acolytes like them, therefore it was fairly normal for Silva to ask the attendant to show a list of them. However, Silva had also asked for tier 5 weapons, which were usually used for those of magus level.


    "I have already saved up to buy a tier 5 sword," Silva said excitedly. "I can''t wait to finally own one!"


    She walked towards one of the rows of tier 5 swords and started browsing through them, while Emery followed right behind her and saw the images of swords on the panels.


    The row that Silva was sweeping at the moment was that of [Double-edged sword], the mostmonly used sword and the one Emery usually used as well.


    Curious about how good the swords sold in here were, Emery stepped closer to a random panel and read its contents.


    [Sword of Omens]


    [Long Sword - Tier 5]


    [Length : 1.1 meter, Weight : 32 kilograms]


    His eyes gazed past the sword''s name and history, such as its forger and origin, the materials used, and so on. In the end, his gazended on the bottom part of the panel where the price of the sword was stated and Emery was quickly stunned.


    [280.000 spirit stones]


    The sword was expensive, so expensive he might not want to buy it even if he did not have to pay for his extremely specialized gene booster serum.


    Currently, Emery only had 5 red stones that were worth 50,000 spirit stones. This amount of money was barely enough to buy him a tier 4 sword, let alone a tier 5. With this realization in mind, Emery could only take his eyes off the tier 5 sword and catch up to Silva.


    "Emery, what do you think of this one?" Silva asked as Emery stopped right behind her.


    He turned to the one she asked and read the description. "It looks good, I guess."


    [Qulta de]


    [Long Sword - Tier 5]


    [Length : 1.2 meter, Weight : 18 kilograms]


    The sword that Silva chose was a sword with a forest green de and silver hilt with the guard that emitted a gleam. Silva touched the panel, "I want to test it."


    The purple-haired android nodded her head. Suddenly the room turned into an arena, while metal puppets began to appear one after another.


    Emery was surprised when he saw that the sword Silva had chosen appeared right where the holographic panel had been. On the other hand, the white-haired girl calmly grabbed the sword, as if she had expected it.


    Silva quickly drew the sword from its scabbard and began to perform several attacks on the metal puppets, which easily shattered under the assault of her swordsmanship.


    It was an amazing feat, but the words that came out of her mouth said otherwise.


    "It''s a bit too long for me." Silva said as she shook her hand and sheathed the sword back. "It doesn''t really match with my sword style."


    This continued for several minutes, until she finally found something that really caught her eyes. It was a pearly white sword, attached next to a pitch ck one. The girl was really fond of it.


    [Gentle Sword]


    [Long Sword - Tier 5]


    [Length : 1.1 meter, Weight : 18 kilograms]


    [Savage de]


    [Long Sword - Tier 5]


    [Length : 1.1 meter, Weight : 31 kilograms]


    The detailed information exined that the two swords had been made by the same master cksmith and they had been created as a pair.


    "Emery, let''s test this with me," Silva said as she grabbed the dark sword and threw it at him.
