Chapter 696: Apartments (2/2)

”No problem.”

Gravis entered the room again and looked at it. Some seconds later, a small jade token entered the hole in the middle, and the entire room began transforming.

The walls turned into dark clouds. Some seconds later, thunder and lightning rumbled around the room as lightning bolts exited one cloud and entered another. Some more seconds later, some clouds left the ”wall” of the room and started floating around the room.

After a minute, the entire room was filled with small and big clouds filled with lightning.

Gravis and Yersi looked around in wonder. The barren room had transformed into a seemingly living storm filled with Punishment Lightning. Orthar also quickly arrived and looked at the room with fanatic interest. Sure enough, it had been the correct decision to go to the highest world!

”This is amazing!” Yersi said with astonishment. ”I would have never thought that something like this was possible!”

Gravis nodded. ”I'm also very impressed.”

Orthar also nodded wordlessly.

The three of them looked around for a bit but decided to exit the jade token. The central area was not to their liking.

After that, they entered several more jade tokens. One was filled with storms, while others were filled with water, light, darkness, and even blood or flesh. There were all kinds of different apartments available.

After looking through all the jade tokens, they were stuck between two of them. One had a forest, while the other one had a massive lake in the middle.

Orthar wanted the one with the lake, while Yersi wanted the one with the forest. Gravis was fine with both of them. Both options had their strong point.

The one with the lake demonstrated the Composition of Water, while the one in the forest demonstrated the Composition of Bark.

The one with the lake had the additional advantage that it reminded them of the Grand Lake in the middle world. Yet, the one with the forest was still in the running due to Gravis' conversation with the Black Magnate.

Neither Orthar nor Yersi knew anything about plants. After some time, they would have no problems with understanding water, but taking a step into the Life Laws of Plants was harder.

The Black Magnate had said that looking at something one already understood was not as enchanting as looking at something one didn't understand. Because of that, Gravis believed that the forest would be more attractive for a longer period of time.

After thinking for about a while, Gravis turned to the receptionist again. ”Can we commission a remodeling?” Gravis asked.

”Sure, but you need to provide the funds,” she said.

The two jade tokens floated over to the receptionist. ”Can we combine these two?” Gravis asked. Then, he showed the receptionist an image of the Grand Lake in their previous middle world. ”Is it possible to remodel the apartment so that half of the apartment looks like the beginning of a huge lake while the other half is a forest?”

”Sure,” she said. ”Do you want both Laws to be showcased? I must warn you, keeping two Laws active at all times quintuples the price.”

Gravis scratched his chin. ”How much would that be?” he asked.

”The one-time remodeling will cost 200,000 Immortal Stones. Renting the finished apartment for one century will cost 900,000 Immortal Stones,” she said.

That was a lot of money, but Gravis was willing to spend that. They had made a profit of 300,000 Immortal Stones in one month. In a year, they would probably make several million, and they would be working for an entire century. After the century, they would probably have several hundred million Immortal Stones. Renting the apartment for an entire millennium would only cost between 1% to 5%.

Gravis nodded. ”Please do so, but we currently don't have the funds,” Gravis said. ”We have only been running our shop for a month. How about we return in a year? Then we can finish the agreement.”

The receptionist became shocked for the first time. The three of them earned 300,000 Immortal Stones in only a single month? This was insane for their Realm!

After some seconds of staring with shock at the three of them, the receptionist smiled again. ”Sure,” she said. ”You can come back whenever you like.”

Gravis nodded. ”Sounds great. See you in a year!” he said.

”Thank you for your visit. Wish you a good day,” the receptionist said with a slight bow.

Orthar and Yersi also said their goodbyes, and the three of them left.

”Well, time to get back to work, guys!” Gravis said.

Orthar and Yersi nodded. Now, they knew what they were working towards!

It was time to earn more money!
