As the sun set, the lamps were lit. The Fortress of Neversetting Sun was covered in a purple mist like a scene from a painting.

The Hyde Corporation was one of the largest businesses in the Kaya Empire with their presence all over the continent. The gold carriage was their trademark. Laughter and sound came from the Hyde Corporation's full store in the northern part of the city at the busiest time of day.

The store acted as a bar and had an additional counter for buying, selling and welcoming guests from all over. Even the mercenaries that were in residence would come to the bar to drink a cup at this golden time and to learn about the news around the Fortress of Neversetting Sun. Some even recruited new members from the bar.

"Creak!" The wood door to the bar made a sound, and the voices inside strangely became quieter.

Some males sitting in the corner were puzzled by the suddenly quiet in the surroundings. When they turned their heads, they instinctively closed their mouths. All eyes gathered on the person who had just come in the door.

Dressed in black robes, with a handsome appearance was a beautiful youth that didn't seem to be even sixteen years of age. The youth held a thick and heavy cloth bag and walked in. Silver light flashed behind the youth, and a silver wolf half the height of a person shot in after. The person and the wolf formed a handsome and attractive scene.

What attracted the attention of the people in the bar was not the handsome appearance but the large black bag.

The black sturdy bag couldn't conceal the light inside. The eyes of these experienced mercenaries quickly discerned what the contents were from the multicolored lights—magic crystals! The magic crystals of magic beasts! Light that only magic crystals above seven stars would give off!

The people stopped their breathing, their hearts drumming rapidly.

Aofeng looked at the luxurious decoration of the store and admired it before walking through the crowd to the counter of the store. She put the large bag she held onto the table. The mouth of the bag opened, and the blinding light of the magic crystals immediately shone onto the ceiling of the store. It also reflected on the shocked pretty face of the female greeter.

The store started to rumble. Sounds of discussion rose, even hotter than before.

"Oh, heavens, so many crystals, did this young magister just robea dragon?" A young male youth that seemed to be a swordsman gaped and said with a stiff face.

Someone close immediately followed. "Did he steal this from some large mercenary company that was out? How can one person kill so many magic beasts!"

A middle-aged mercenary sighed in shock. "And they are all high star magic beast crystals. How many gem coins would it be if they were sold? No no no, this can only be counted in obsidians. Ah, we work for decades, yet it cannot compare to a person's single trip. Comparing myself to others is so depressing one wants to die."

It was not easy for a normal explorer group to go out and kill one or two seven-star magic beasts. The dangers in the depths of the forest were innumerable. Normal people didn't even dare to go lose. Only a freak like Aofeng who had a sacred beast protecting her dared to go into the forest to get money.

While the discussion was loud, Aofeng ignored the gazes of the crowd and pointed at the cloth bag, saying, "Help me calculate this, I'm selling. Also, I want some good quality magister robes."

The female server paused and then hurriedly nodded. She gave a professional smile. "All right. However, Young Master, so many high star level magic crystals are an enormous sum, possibly a few thousand obsidians. We need to inventory it before giving you a specific number. Do you wish to drink anything in the meantime?"
