Chapter 130: Special Showroom

At that point the man that looked like a Tamer cut off his voice. Sage saw the back of another mans head move sharply and he assumed it was the leader of their little group making sure Sage couldnt eavesdrop. Sage gave a passing look to the creature they were walking about. It looked like a rabbit the size of a large dog or wolf, but somehow it had a huge turtle shell on its back. Such a strange animal, I believe it was called a Tortoise Hare.

Struck with a sudden flash of inspiration, Sage merely smiled at the other group as he walked past and continued looking at all the beasts that were in the room. Many of them were just the species from the Demonic Beast Mount room, but caught from the wild. They were untamed and suitable as breeding stock, or for skilled Beast Tamers to try their hand at training. Most Tamers were really more of Breeders and Trainers. They would use wild beasts as breeding stock and then raise and train the children into obedient pets. Tamers that had profound techniques and powers that allowed them to turn wild beasts into their pets were rare. Usually, such things were the foundation of whole Sects. Ñøv€l-B1n was the first platform to present this chapter.

Sage moved on from the room of untamed beasts, not wishing to give that group any idea he was interested in them. Instead he moved on to the last room, and the one he was most interested in. It was actually called the Special Showroom, since it would be where they put their leftover, unusual, unknown, overcrowded, or other sorts of special stock in. Hed been keeping track so far of the creatures he had some interest in purchasing for later, but his funds were limited and he didnt want to put himself into poverty here.

As soon as he entered the Special Showroom, Sage let a wide smile crawl onto his face. He hadnt been let down! He immediately saw a wondrous sight upon entering the room. There was a huge cage set down in the middle of the room with a big sign showing off the shops current attention draw.

Paradise Fantail

After the name was a short description, one which matched with what Sage knew of the creature. They were small birds, only the size of a palm, but with long broad tail feathers that expanded out like a fan. They were also a vibrant green color with blue underbellies, very unusual coloring among bird species. The males had bright violet wings and a rainbow assortment of color on their small head crests. None of that was really all that surprising though, just colorful little spirit animal birds. The part of them that was great was their ability. It wasnt anything that made them into combatants, nor did it enhance their owners. It was purely a luxury for the rich. The more Paradise Fantails there were in an area the more that area began to become like paradise. Their presence actually influenced the climate.

Ill be taking this toad.

Sage kept a Storage Bag on his waist so hed seem like every other cultivator, and at this moment he had already moved four thousand spirit stones into it and handed it over towards the Handlers, There should be enough in here. I assume the cage is part of the purchase?

The handlers were amazed, theyd been showing off this strange creature for a few days already, and they were annoyed by having to constantly face its gaze. The store owner had already put a price tag on it, a price so high that nobody was willing to pay it. All they wanted to do was get rid of it immediately so they wouldnt have to keep getting nearly bit by a rabbit and get struck dumb for a second many times a day. Wary of a practical joke, the Handler looked into the storage bag before suddenly smiling and bowing to Sage like he was his ancestor.

One of the men ran off to fetch a manager while the other picked up the cage and led Sage to a backroom. A few minutes later, Sage had finished the purchase and was even given a free Beast Bag along with the Cage to store the Toad. Sage didnt turn down the free hundred spirit stone item, especially since he now had only fifty spirit stones remaining. After the purchase was complete, Sage idled around in the store in the courtyard until he saw that group of men leaving with the Tortoise Hare. He didnt even look their way, only catching sight of their backs on the way out of a side door.

Time to see if it works.

Walking into the room filled with untamed beasts, Sage walked over to where the Tortoise Hares cage had been sitting and closed his eyes. Only his left eye opened back up, a tiny hole into the void of space appeared in place of his pupil.
