n?”Can you tell us more specifically about the dimensional merchant?” Th link to the orign of this information rsts n Novlꜰre.nt

n“Like the range of products they sell?”

n“How frequently do they contact and trade with you?”

n“What about the mode of transportation?”

n“How do they deliver the product to you?”

n“More importantly, how do you conduct transactions?”

n“What is the method of payment?” Rakasha asks one by one.

nThe others also listen intently.

nThey wanted to know more about this mysterious dimensional merchant.

nWhat if they could directly bypass this brat and trade with such a patron themselves?

n“For specific information, I can’t tell you, according to the contract.” Maximus shook his head.

n“Tsk~” They quickly clicked their tongue, hearing his answer.

n“But for the products they sell, I can still share one or two,”

nTelling them too much information at one time will increase the possibility of his system being exposed, which he doesn’t want.

n“Then, can you tell us about it?” Rakasha asks, understanding Maximus’s situation.

nAs for the possibility of Maximus lying, it’s not that important.

nAs long as they get the key information, they can go back and investigate it later.

n“Truthfully, I don’t know the range of what they can or can’t sell.”

n“Aside from seemingly having everything available in our world, they also have unique products from different dimensions.”

nThe crowd in the room frowned, processing what Maximus had said.

nMaximus basically said nothing but also everything.

nMeaning they can only probe further if they want to know more.

n“Oh, I also heard that they sell tier 10 resources and products,” Maximus shrugged as if he just remembered it.

nHearing that the dimensional merchant Maximus is in contact with is selling tier-10 products, the room turned silent, like a void.

nTier 10 realm!

nThe thing that countless powerhouse dream day and night.

nThe thing that kept them fighting for countless epochs.

nHearing that they were in contact with at least a tier 10 civilization, they couldn’t help but feel fear and excitement at the same time.

n“Is this confirmed?” Rakasha asked seriously.

n“I’m not sure, but very highly likely,” Maximus didn’t deny nor confirm.

nThe information he provided should be enough to catch fish.

nAnything more would harm him and his plan for the future.

n…

nA few months later, in the Shadow Hunter Outpost:

nMaximus was in his residence, meditating as if waiting for something.

nA few months had passed since the high-level assembly, and the process was easier than he thought.

nAfter a few days of discussion, they came to terms with Maximus.

nFirstly, the Shadow Coins would be solely owned by him.

nMaximus didn’t need to pay any tax or hidden fees.

nThe methods of making the currency were also kept by himself.

nHowever, Maximus needed to ensure not to abuse this right.

nOtherwise, they would personally take action and rehabilitate him.

nSecondly, it was about the trading rights for the unknown dimensional merchant.

nEach top guild could freely trade with him as an intermediary.

nThis was the problem causing the assembly to last for a few days.

nAfter Maximus listed what could be bought and the prices.

nThe crowd went wild and taught him how to be a decent human being.

nAt the start, the price he listed was at the Etherium Realm price standard.

nBut those old foxes seemed like a bunch of enlightened sages.

nThey didn’t believe anything Maximus had said and told him to state the actual price.

nIt came to the point where they even openly threatened Maximus.

nAlthough they didn’t know if Maximus had the backing of the unknown dimensional merchant, they didn’t care.

nIn the face of profits, anything is negligible.

nEven Rakasha, who had always been impartial, didn’t side with him.

nAfter hearing that they were trading tier 10 items, his heart went on fire, and he wanted to acquire one.

nAlthough they couldn’t advance to tier 10 because of the constraints of their world.

nBuying a tier 10 weapon or two would still be a massive boost to their strength.

nWhat about the abyss?

nHeck, they might even devour this piece of ** and advance the Etherium Realm to tier 10 dimension.

nFinally, after a few days of back and forth, Maximus had to grit his teeth and lower the price, thus reducing his income.

nInitially, he could earn at least ten to a hundred times the price difference.

nAs a result, he could only earn about twice or thrice the price difference.

nFortunately, there were still rarer items that he could price arbitrarily.

nThe third thing they discussed was the expansion of outposts and shelters in the Abyss Realm.

nWith more outposts and shelters, they could deploy those uncountable tier 6 individuals rotting in the Etherium Realm.

nIn the past, due to the lack of a safe place in the Abyss, this could not be implemented.

nAfter all, just the tier 7 powerhouses already overcrowded their space.

nNow, with the dimensional merchant, they didn’t worry about the source of material and could build more outposts and shelters unscrupulously.

nRegardless of cost, they decided to push the abyss horizontally and, in turn, earn more profits.

nAs for the lack of fighting power of these tier 6 individuals, this is not a problem.

nA larger number means more power.

nIf a hundred tier 6 individuals can’t compared to a tier 7, what about a thousand?

nWhat about ten thousand?

nWhat about a hundred thousand?

nWhat about a million?

nOne has to know that the ratio of tier 6 to tier 7 powerhouses is like a drop of water to an ocean.

nAn ant can drown an elephant, much less a bunch of powerful individuals.

nFor this, Maximus didn’t say much.

nAnyway, he was not the one spending money; even he could earn much more.

nNow, the Shadow Coins, or should he say Etherium Coins, were already being widely promoted.

nSince they already had a new currency, why would they still use the depreciating crystal merits?

nUnfortunately, even with the guarantee of top guilds and organizations, the spread of Etherium coins is slow.

nAfter all, all those past trials had already taken a toll on them.

nWhat if, in the future, such a currency fell?

nBy then, they wouldn’t even know where to cry.

nAs for the name change, it was the suggestion of the Etherium Council.

nAfter all, if a currency represented an individual, then where would they put their face?

nIsn’t this admitting they were not as good as the other party?

nDidn’t that mean that the Etherium Council didn’t have control anymore?

nMaximus agreed to this without much thought.

nAfter all, Shadow Coins were indeed too personalized.

nWhile he was in deep thought, a knock came on the door.

n“Guild leader, a group of individuals wanted to see you,” Andrew stated.

n“Oh? The first prey is here?” Maximus muttered silently.

n“Lead them to the audience chamber,” Maximus instructed.

n…

nAudience Chamber:

nMaximus sat in a chair, eager to see who would be the first brave one to take the bait.

nThese few months, no one was brave enough to trade with him.

nAlthough Maximus’s source was tempting, it was full of unknowns.

nThey didn’t know if they would be cheated out of money.

nSo, most of them adopted a wait-and-see attitude.

nAfter all, to trade with Maximus, one had to pay first, and the total transaction must reach a hundred quadrillion crystal merits.

nThis was a substantial amount.

nAlthough they were top guilds or organizations with a significant flow of money, they didn’t dare to spend that much at a time.

nMaximus was also helpless in this regard.

nHe set this limit to avoid being too busy.

nIf it were only trillions of crystal merits at a time.

nWith so many guilds and organizations out there, he would be exhausted just transporting and exchanging the products.

nMore importantly, these trillions were nothing to him.

nWith thousands of shelters, famous products, and Etherium coins, Maximus could earn 2 to 3 quadrillion every month doing nothing.

nThis amounted to tens of trillions every day.

nWhy waste time earning a few extra trillion?

nOf course, mainly because he didn’t want to expose his system too much.

nFrequent transactions meant frequent exposure.

nFurthermore, just thinking about it, earning tens of quadrillions with just a wave of his hand was quite good.

nAs for paying first, it was natural.

nMaximus only had less than a hundred quadrillion in his system.

nIf he traded with goods on the spot, it would be troublesome.

nWhat if the transaction reached hundreds of quadrillions or even quintillions?

nMaximus could only delay the transaction, leading to more problems.

nDidn’t that imply that the dimensional merchant wasn’t that strong?

nOr perhaps there was a technical problem imposing a limit?

nEither way, many issues would arise, jeopardizing his credibility.

nMaximus could only sigh and be thankful that someone finally had the guts to initiate a transaction.

nAfter this, many should clear their doubts and begin trading with him.

nBy then, saving 100 quintillion for his advancement would be a piece of cake.

nHe could even reserve one for his family, ensuring they would never be separated when he returned to the Etherium Realm.

nThis fish was indeed his lucky star.

nHe wondered if he should offer some discount to this courageous customer.

nAs he was thinking, who’s the stupid fish that took the first bait?

nThe door slammed open as a beautiful angel flew into his embrace.

n“Maximus!”
