Chapter 142 - 142 First Encounter (1/2)

Arc curse Nine for being tight lip, ”so Shaira I'm interested in this egg too but what kind of medicine are you looking for, what I mean is what kind of illness are you trying to cure?” Said Arc curiously.

Sigh, I'm not going to lie it's for my brother he had been poisoned during one of his expeditions he was a space explorer, and he loves traveling and discovering new and old things. Said Shaira.

”Hmm, space explorer? That job exist?” Arx said in his mind.

”But one day he encounters a very peculiar animal in one of the worlds he was exploring and was poisoned by it, his crew was able to save him by placing him in stasis chamber greatly slowing his heartbeats, saving him from being poisoned to death but that's only a temporary solutions, his crew tried to find the beast who poisoned him but to no avail, there are millions of species on that world but without knowing what kind of or what it looks like the chances are quite slim.” Said Shaira.

”So I assume your brother is unconscious since that accident?”

”That's right and it's been 3 years since then, According to our analysis he only has about a few months before the poison reaches his heart.” Said Shaira with a sad look on his face.

”Hmm, well I do have a serum that's been good at curing all kinds of bad status, including poisons but the problem is its only been tested to humans, not other races. And looking at your appearance you are not human. So I don't know if it will work.” Said Arc scratching his chin.

”Oh, you're new to the galactic net are you?” Said Shaira.

”Huh? What do you mean?” Arc asks in confusion he didn't know why she suddenly asks that question.

”Well, it's true that our avatar is fixed the moment we entered the galactic net, but there's plenty of ways to change one appearance in galactic net,” said Shaira with a slight smile on her face.

”Oh!, I see so the wings on your back are just accessories?” ask Arc.

”That's right!” Said Shaira.

”I see, well that makes sense I guess I was thinking that its peculiar to be unable to change your appearance inside the virtual world, no, wait does that mean you're human?”

”That's right,” said Shaira.

”So is what you said true?” ask Shaira.

”About the serum? Of course, there's no need to lie about that.” but that's serum is very expensive more expensive than you think, and I'm not trying to scam you,”

”Oh, well I am trying to scam you but well whatever” arc said in his mind.

”Cough, well anyways that's how it is.” Said Arc.

Shaira notice a little change in Arc's face but didn't dwell in it, she then asks. ”And if it didn't work?”

”What do you mean?” Arc Ask.

”If it didn't work then the trade is canceled,” said Shaira.

Arc frown, at that words, ”well that's fine but what if it works?” Said Arc with a slight smile on his face.

”Then we can conclude the deal with the Egg,” said shaira smiling back.

”You're joking right?” Arc said.

”No, not at all” said Shaira.
