Chapter 936 Mysterious Jaw Demons

-----

After saving the huge crystal inside of Glutton, which I\'ll most likely use in something else, I continued my shopping spree, looking for compatible materials for my familiars evolutions.

I got myself a variety of the rare Spirit Stones, which were available. The rarest of them were usually Earth, Darkness and Poison, the forest had those ruins where I found Nephilim, which were filled with spirit stones of mostly life, nature, fire, and light elements.

Meanwhile, the Fishman King\'s Dungeon had Spirit Stones of Ice and Water, and sometimes fire too, but Earth, Darkness and Poison were still the rarest, so I made this opportunity to get a bunch of those.

Darkness and Poison Spirit Stones are very common in the Demon Continent, so I made sure to buy them from the merchants coming from there. I saw many different and distinct tribes of demons I had never seen before; some had the heads of animals with muscular blue skinned bodies, others were like humanoid reptiles with tiny wings, and there was another that was a huge elephant-like person.

"OOHOHOHO! You sure buy a lot, young lady!" Laughed the elephant-like man. "Thank you for your preference! Darkness and Poison Spirit Stones are very common back home, but even here, not many buy them either, you\'ve saved my business by buying so many!"

"Ah, it\'s nothing, really!" I giggled. "I\'m glad to see people from the Demon Continent here, I\'m glad to do business with you!"

"Oh, wait, before going away, please take this as a souvenir." He said, suddenly giving me a bottle, which had two huge eyes inside floating in a green liquid. "These are Mimic Eyes! I heard you were looking for these from another fellow merchant around the corner."

"Ehhh?! You had these hidden?" I asked in shock.

"Well, they\'re quite precious, so I was planning on selling them at a high price in the auction, but let\'s say I\'ll let you have them." He said. "O-Of course, the souvenir comes with a price, it took a long while to get this one."

"Hmmm…" I checked the eyes authenticity, the man was well-mannered, but he could be trying to swindle me.

[Dark Mimic Bottled Eyes (B+ Grade)]

A pair of big eyes extracted from a Dark Mimic inhabiting the Demon Continent\'s Dungeons.

These eyes possess a potent magical power, which allows them to change colors depending on the material you synthetize them with.

They\'re ideal materials for glasses or accessories and can harbor large quantities of Mana inside.

If processed well enough, equipment made with these items can change their color depending on their environment, helping the wearer meld with the background and enhance their stealth.

Oh, they\'re authentic! Nothing can escape these eyes, so I guess I\'ve gotta buy it!

"Alright, name your price." I said, getting on my bantering mode.

"Each eye would be one million gold." He said. "T-That\'s the most I can lower the price!"

"Hmmm… I\'ll give you one million and five hundred for both. They\'re good but they\'re B Grade, not A Grade. If they were higher I would pay more." I said.

"Eh?! B-But young lady…" He sighed, trying to act sad. "A-Alright, how about one million and nine hundred?"

"One million and six hundred…"

"T-That\'s…! Don\'t you need them desperately?"

"It seems you also need to sell them desperately…"

"Gulp…"

He quickly realized I knew he was lying. These eyes are not all that sought after, he wouldn\'t get more than a million for both in the auction.

"I\'m doing you a favor; you won\'t get more than a million in the auction for these. Elves mostly buy magic catalyst. It is a good item to craft stealthy equipment, but we\'ve got magic for that here." I laughed. "I need them to evolve my familiar, and I think you\'re a nice person, so I want to compensate you for your efforts."

"…" The man sighed one last time before giving me his last price. "T-Then one million and… seven hundred?"

"Alright, alright, you win." I laughed, paying him quickly. "Have a nice day!"

"Y-Yes…" He nodded, counting the big coins. "Hahhh… Why do I feel like a little girl made me for a fool?"

I made my way back to my friends, after having looked around the entire area surrounding us, I had bought the pelts necessary for Furoh\'s evolution, and I also got the eyes of a mimic, I need the tongue and some other organs… which won\'t be easy to get.

"Sylphy! Did you get what you wanted?" Aquarina showed up, carrying a bag with blue jewels, brown jewels, and some ores. She was also eating a whole grilled squid covered on a spicy sauce.

"Yeah, mostly, although I\'m still missing a ton of things. And naturally, nobody has dragon materials." I shrugged. "What did you get?"

"Oh, I got some magic jewels and ores, mom said I\'ll need them to begin my new physique refinement." Aquarina said.

"Oh, I see! I wonder if the Dragon Heart you got might negatively affect that?" I wondered, a bit worried.

"Don\'t worry! Mom said that it won\'t affect anything. It might even give me an even stronger ability or physique later on. I\'ll get super strong, you\'ll see!" She was really excited.

"You\'re already super strong! But I\'m glad you\'re aiming for higher heights." I giggled, giving her a kiss. "Let\'s go grab a bite now that we\'re done- Ah, your lips were all spicy!"

"Hehehe, it is what you sought for giving me a kiss!" She was after all eating a spicy grilled squid on a stick… "Now come, I\'ll cover your face with spicy sauce!"

"Uwaagh!" I ran away from her as we encountered the rest of our friends, who were gathered around Mist.

She was talking to a Demon again; she had been talking to every Demon that came from the ships as she could. Yet everyone was giving her the same answer.

"Sorry lass, I\'m glad you\'ve grown outside of our continent, honestly… But I don\'t know of any other Jaw Demon out there, nor where their village could be…" The huge reptile-like demon sighed.

"O-Oh… Thanks anyways!" Mist said, forcing a smile.

It looks like her tribe is either very secretive, or…

She might be the very last one of them.
