Chapter 789: I was right (1/2)
Huana thought about the possibility that Krune and Feifei might have more of those Godly Energy Stones with them. However, she wasn't certain. Other than that, it was a fact that their Universe had just gone through a war a while ago. She had to consider many things because of that.
First, who would she be offending if she tried to attack and take the stones by force? Considering how Feifei and Krune didn't seem the least bit afraid of entering the planet's protection formation, it was apparent that they had a way out. Even if that wasn't the case, they might be confident because of their backgrounds instead.
In any case, she would be making more enemies during a moment where their Dole Universe really can't take more of them. Even if she succeeded in obtaining them by force, she would definitely consider the after-effects of that action. After pondering for a bit, she nodded at them and said.
”Very well. If you really have more of them, this trade might be possible. I'll need to talk with each of the five powers to obtain their consent, but it shouldn't take long.”
Krune shrugged his shoulders as he asked.
”How much of it does Lady Huana think for it to be a fair price?”
Huana didn't expect that Krune would allow her to give a price herself. She then looked at the Godly Energy Stones in the spatial ring and how they could use them before saying.
”We have two Ownerless Heavenly Fragments, as you probably know. I think a fair price would be about 1000 Godly Energy Stones for each.”
That was more than double the price of the first Heavenly Fragment Feifei and Krune got. However, Krune decided to accept the offer since those, to him, were just common Godly Energy Stones. He really had way too many of them. The main reason was that he saw how the Universe was faring at the moment, so that would be his way of giving them some help.
”Very well. When can we expect to receive the Heavenly Fragments?”
Huana sighed in relief, thinking that she might have asked too much. Still, she quickly recovered.
”Just wait for a few more hours while I talk with the others. I'll give you an answer soon.”
Krune and Feifei nodded before they went back to the previous living room. Huana then contacted the other five powers' leaders and explained the situation to them. Sure enough, they mentioned attacking Krune and Feifei and taking everything they had at some point. Yet, that idea quickly disappeared when they were warned about their own conditions at the moment. After all, they wouldn't receive any Godly Energy Stones and even obtain a new formidable enemy if things went south. The Dole Universe definitely didn't need such a burden at this point.
Besides, 2000 Godly Energy Stones would still mean 400 for each of the five powers. That was truly a lot in a place like the Mortal Realm. The process went smoothly after that. At some point, Krune and Feifei were invited into Huana's office once more.
”I got the two Heavenly Fragments. So, you said that you don't have more of it at the moment. When can we go through this trade?”
Krune then pointed upwards.
”There should be a puppet outside the protection formation, waiting for an opening to appear.”
Sure enough, Huana received a message at that very moment about the weird bird-like puppet outside. That was obviously one of Heavin's works. Huana couldn't help but ask.
”Isn't it too risky to leave the stones with a puppet just like that?”
Feifei laughed as she replied.
”Before you accepted the trade, you didn't even know it existed, right? So it's safe.”
”I can still take it by force and not give you the Havenly Fragments.”
Krune and Feifei didn't seem the least bit concerned.
”We really wouldn't recommend such an action if we were you.”
That's all they said. Still, Huana felt a foreboding feeling as if she was the one in danger at the moment. Still, it was already decided that the trade would be conducted fairly, so she calmed herself.
”I'm just joking. In any case, I already authorized the entrance of the puppet.”
Sometime later, the puppet was brought into the room, where Krune took a Spatial Ring from inside. Well, that was just a pretense. The fact was that the Godly Energy Stones had always been with him from start to finish.
Krune then passed the amount into the same spatial ring he gave Huana before so she could check. After confirming that it really had 2000 Godly Energy Stones inside, she nodded.
”It's indeed 2000 Godly Energy Stones.”
She then took two boxes from her own Spatial Ring and passed them to Krune and Feifei. Naturally, they had the Heavenly Fragments inside. Krune didn't even look as he passed his own box to Feifei.
Feifei then opened each of them and confirmed that they were the real deal. After that, she closed the boxes again before putting both into her Spatial Ring.
