Chapter 106: Shadow Cloak

"Damn it, I asked for too little!" Mira first froze for a moment, then said with a look of regret.

"Hey, hey, don't go too far." Hearing Mira's words, Edward tapped the counter with his finger and said, "One thousand Gold Frost is a huge hemorrhage for me."

"Who cares about you, hurry up and pay!" Mira reached out and urged.

"Here."

Edward took out his Frost Bank Credit Card and placed it in Mira's palm.

"What is this?" Mira looked at the metal card in her hand with a puzzled expression.

"I'm telling you, don't just stay cooped up in the shop all day; at the very least, go buy a newspaper to understand what's happening in the city," Edward rubbed his forehead and said:

"This thing is a Frost Bank Credit Card; you can deposit all your money into this card."

"Huh!?"

"Have you humans already reached the point where you can mass-produce spatial magic?" Hearing Edward's words, Mira looked shocked.

"No."

It was the first time Yun Mu had seen Edward show such a headache-inducing expression; it was clear how speechless he was.

But then again... how is it that Mira feels a bit cute?

What kind of old-fashioned shut-in is she? She doesn't even know how to use a credit card, yet her magic skills are incredibly powerful!? Damn it, if this were her past life, she would definitely draw a doujin—no, a comic—immediately and release it for netizens to appreciate.

After spending quite a bit of effort, Edward finally explained clearly to Mira what exactly a Frost Bank Credit Card was.

He let her know that this thing doesn't just store money, but can "store" money.

"But my shop doesn't have a communicator line, so you should just give me cash," Mira said, returning the credit card to Edward.

"No checks, otherwise I'll have to go to Frost Bank to exchange them later, which is so troublesome," she added after a pause.

"I'm telling you, do you know how much one thousand Gold Frost coins is?" Edward said with black lines on his forehead.

That's the bad thing about metal currency; it's too bulky and hard to carry, though if you really had to say it.

Actually, there was plenty of cash on Earth, and it was also troublesome to carry.

But by the time Yun Mu transmigrated, Earth had long since started using mobile payments; who uses cash if they're a normal person?

Although the machinery and steam technology in this world are quite outrageous, it is still not very realistic to achieve the kind of online payment methods used on Earth.

Unless Yun Mu thought of magic; if she used magic, could she achieve the same effect as her past life on Earth? Or even surpass Earth?

Uh, forget it, better to daydream less.

Not to mention that she only had a half-baked understanding of the technology from her past life, she didn't even know magic herself.

Maybe after she learns a few tricks of Alchemy from Lucy later, it wouldn't be impossible to research these things.

For now... dream less, think more about reality.

Accompanied by a scream from Lita, the Dust-Eating Flower swallowed her into its belly in one gulp, and while doing the cleaning work, it began to measure her body data.

During this wait, Mira looked at Yun Mu and greeted her softly: "We meet again, little guest."

"My name is Yun Mu, Miss Mira." Hearing the other party's address, Yun Mu said with some embarrassment.

"Then let's go with Miss Yun," Mira said somewhat casually.

"Is there anything you want to buy this time?" she asked.

"No." Yun Mu shook her head without hesitation.

She had originally wanted to see if there was anything she could buy, but her pockets were shy; counting the money in her credit card, she only had a little over three hundred Gold Frost coins.

Might as well forget it.

A poor person must have the self-awareness of a poor person; even compared to when she first transmigrated, she was now just a poor person with a little bit of money.

"That's a real pity; I was going to say that since I'm in a good mood today, I could give you a discount..."

"Wait!" Yun Mu interrupted the other party and asked: "How much of a discount?"

Hearing her words, a faint, imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Mira's mouth.

"Forty percent off."

Five minutes later.

"Damn it, I couldn't help it." Yun Mu followed behind Mira into the room behind the Old Witch Clothing Store.

As for Lita, according to Mira, Edward had ordered custom equipment for her; after the data was measured and the money paid, she could leave.

Of course, the other party hadn't paid yet; she just had to pay and receive the goods the next time she came.

They were all acquaintances, so she wasn't afraid of Edward running up a tab.

"What's kept here are actually all the failed products I made on a whim; the better things are in the back."

Passing through the room where Yun Mu had bought clothes last time, Mira explained to her:

"Because there are simply too many of those practice pieces, whenever someone accidentally comes to my place, I sell the clothes there at cost price."

"So that's how it is." Yun Mu suddenly realized.

No wonder there was such a good deal where you could buy a whole set of magical attire for ten Gold Frost; it turns out it was clearing out inventory. That makes sense.

"For old customers, those practice pieces certainly wouldn't be suitable, especially for a Transcendental."

Mira smiled and pulled open the wooden door to the deeper room, saying to her.

"Eh?"

"How did Miss Mira see that I am a Transcendental?" Yun Mu was somewhat surprised.

She was still an ordinary person when she came last time, and this time she had the Orange necklace given to her by Brenna, which could conceal the abnormalities of her Ether Body.

Logically speaking, unless it was a Legendary-rank Transcendental, no one should be able to see through her disguise.

Could it be— "Idiot, when you came last time, there were traces of the Path entwined on your Ether Body, but now not a single trace can be seen; do you take me for a fool?"

Mira tapped her head and said.

"It was actually for this reason!?"

Yun Mu touched her head; it was her carelessness, she hadn't thought of this point.

However, this could not really be considered a problem.

After all, no one else had seen the abnormal state of her Ether Body before.

Following Mira into the room at the very back, in an instant, dazzling blue light echoed back and forth, mixed with a faint purple, instantly blinding Yun Mu's eyes.

Took a look at the prices. Never mind.

The cheapest ones were over four hundred Gold Frost Coins, and even with a forty percent discount, given her financial means, she could at most only afford one piece of blue-quality equipment.

Being able to buy one was already great! Yun Mu's eyes shone as she patrolled the room, raising her hand to release the system's inspection function, picking through one piece of blue equipment after another that she could afford.

Concealment Cloak, Steel Chain Gloves, Tough Bracers—huh, why are there even magic staves?

"Damn it, I really want to buy them all."

Squeezing the bank card in her pocket and hesitating again and again, Yun Mu finally chose that Concealment Cloak.

The reason was simple, because this cloak actually had Invisibility! 【Concealment Cloak (Blue)】
