Chapter 1054  Finally a chance!

"Boss, you are really amazing. Even when that fellow did not want to, you somehow made him take such a big loan!"

"Mmmm." Aron absent-mindedly nodded. "It's nothing much. That human being's foundation is not bad. He should be worth at least a million mana cores."

"Ah? But wasn't the purchase only for 100,000 mana cores?"

"Hmph. By the time he pays it back it will be a million." Aron answered in annoyance to the young fairy who was pestering him with questions. "You still have a lot to learn!"

Not that he didn't. Aron sighed as he couldn't help but think about the massive failure that was still haunting him.

Since this was a lower realm, he had been very confident and assumed that he was going to rake in huge profits, but this single guy had crushed all of his hopes and dreams.

"At least he won't be back for another couple of weeks." Aron breathed out loud in relief. Before that, he absolutely had to find out some ways to make up for the losses.

He had hoped that the fool wouldn't survive the threat of the isons, but somehow that hope was also lost. Now he had to rely on the undeads.

"Hmmm… it is indeed very strange that this backwater planet is being targeted by powerful clans one after the other. Is there perhaps some celestial treasure hidden here?"

His mind wandered as his gaze casually landed on the entrance of the shop, and then he saw the person who was not supposed to show up for another couple of weeks. In fact, Aron would have preferred that he never saw the guy again.

"Damn it." The fairy saw the smile on the human's face, and for some reason, a very bad feeling started to well up within him. This day just took a turn for the worst!

Without wasting any time, Aron quickly walked over to the lucky fool, only to gasp inwardly the next second. This guy was already at Level 100?

"What can I help you with today, Mr. Liam?" He asked, swallowing his disappointment.

Liam chuckled lightly. He could almost smell the fear on the fairy's face. "I am here to use your mana gathering array chamber." He innocently answered.

Almost immediately, the fairy's face changed. Aron revealed a bright smile as he quickly stepped to the side. "This way, please, Mr. Liam."

"Hmmm?" Liam raised his brow as he silently followed the fairy and entered a similar chamber on the fourth floor. The fairy was grinning so much that, for a moment, he was confused.

However, he walked into the chamber, ignoring the guy. Why the fairy was happy or sad was not his concern. He had far more important things to focus on.

Liam paid the required mana cores and entered the mana gathering chamber when the familiar thick mana swirls enveloped him.

"This place really is amazing." Liam took a few gulps of air and sat down, taking a small stone tablet out of his spatial artifact.

He placed the tablet down, and almost immediately, the energy in the room shifted. Just as Liam expected, the stone tablet started to absorb the mana in the air.

The next second, Liam was once again in the familiar world of the stone tablet, a lush green forest. There were his accumulated puddles of elemental essences and, along with it, a separate puddle of soul essence.

As he saw this, Liam couldn't help but feel a little regretful for having missed the strong souls of the ison King and the Queens he had defeated.

Perhaps there was something in the magic shop he could buy to prevent this from occurring in the future. Even if it was a soul he couldn't handle at the moment, he could always save it for later.

Liam made a mental note to do something about this and then proceeded to start with the main event. He took out a cauldron that he had purchased from the magic shop. As for the herbs…

He closed his eyes and took another deep breath. Moments later, four patches of herbs started growing wildly on the land to his left side, the four sets of herbs that he needed for the first recipe.

Liam plucked one of the herbs and smelled it. An amazing medicinal scent wafted from the plant. The herb was grown to perfection. If he brewed this potion, the resulting product would also be tempered to perfection.

"He He. We are just getting started."

Meanwhile…. Outside the mana gathering array chamber…

Aron was grinning from ear to ear. The fairy seemed to be in an extremely good mood. In fact, this was the happiest he had been ever since the magic shop was initialized in this world.

"Boss, did we get another huge purchase?" One of the underlings asked in confusion.

Everyone knew that Liam was the human being that their boss dreaded the most, but for some reason, he was happy this time?

"Hmmm… The bad days for our shop are finally over. We are going to make a turnaround. Ke Ke Ke. Considering that the rat who got caught in my trap is a big fat one, I am going to become very rich. That fool walked into something that I did not even plan for him! Ke Ke ke!"

"Eh?"

"The mana gathering array room. The idiot is using it. What? You still don't understand?" Aron laughed. "It's fine. You don't have to understand. Just do as I tell you."

"Yes, sir." The fairy nodded, still confused.

Aron grinned and opened the system interface to tap away. "Keep the array running even after the one hour mark."

"That fool has no idea what kind of a money sink the mana gathering array is. With this, I am going to make him burn all of his credits."

"Not only won't I owe him anything… ke ke ke… I would also be able to make that fool forever indebted to me! It's time for payback! Leave that room undisturbed!"

"Oh?" The fairy gasped in awe.

Aron nodded with a smug smile. "Ke Ke Ke! You guys still have a lot to run. The thing about running magic shops is one needs to know how to toe the line without crossing it. Got it? Now scram. Do some work."

Aron then proceeded to retire to the manager's room, where he comfortably leaned back on the chair for a long nap, still wearing the big grin.

When he woke up, everything would be different, and he would no longer be at the bottom of the ranking list!
