However, to his astonishment, the fire crystal, which had already manifested a physical form, was effortlessly slapped back into the box by Daniel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the manager worried that Daniel might not want the item after seeing it, the latter directly asked for the price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The general manager quickly replied,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A single fire crystal costs one billion superior mana stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, at Dragonscale Bank, we also accept other treasures as a form of trade. We always provide the fairest valuation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He explained that very few people could carry such an enormous amount of mana stones, so Dragonscale Bank offered a bartering option.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bank's reputation for fair evaluations had remained impeccable over the years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel, however, waved his hand dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll use mana stones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over the years, Daniel hadn't had many opportunities to spend mana stones, and forging didn't consume much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How many of these… fire crystals do you have here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The general manager promptly answered,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We currently have thirty-one fire crystals in stock.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only that many?\" Daniel frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that was all they had, it wouldn't be enough for Rose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The general manager was momentarily stunned. He hadn't expected Daniel to think that thirty-one fire crystals were \"too few.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thirty-one fire crystals… Thirty-one billion superior mana stones...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could that be considered a small amount?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any organization capable of purchasing so many mana stones in one go must be immensely powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his mind, the general manager began silently listing prominent forces, trying to associate Daniel with one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir, the truth is, most people who acquire fire crystals keep them for personal use rather than selling them to us. These thirty-one pieces are already hard-won treasures!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you truly need more, you might consider heading to the Fire Abyss. The abyss is currently experiencing a flame tide, which causes a surge in fire crystals.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However…\" The general manager hesitated, looking embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Many powerful mages have recently returned to compete for those fire crystals due to their immense value.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Daniel understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here's what we'll do: pack up all the fire crystals you have, along with every pure fire stone. I'll take them all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The general manager froze for a moment, then his face broke into an uncontrollable grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood, sir! Please wait a moment—I'll fetch everything right away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could no longer contain his excitement. Never in his career had he encountered such a generous customer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pure fire stones and fire crystals had been sitting in Dragonscale Bank for a long time, with few willing to spend such exorbitant sums to buy them. But today, a single customer had swept them all up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The general manager couldn't help but feel a thrill of satisfaction, smiling all the way as he walked to retrieve the items.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Daniel returned to the first floor, where Rose and the others had dispersed to browse items of interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Rikki, the bear, was happily munching on honey-based treats it had picked up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, two hands covered Rikki's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bear instinctively glanced around but found itself in total darkness. Shoving the rest of the snack into its mouth, it panicked and shouted,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Ryze! I can't see! There must be an enemy nearby! Save me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Rikki shouted and ran blindly, the darkness remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel sighed and waved his hand, causing Nina to drop from a spatial fold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ryze, looking exasperated, glanced at Nina while reassuring the bear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's fine now. See? You're okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rikki lifted its head and looked around. Its vision was restored, and it laughed happily—until it noticed Nina, who was just getting up from the ground nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"President? When did you get here? I didn't see you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just arrived. I heard you were here, so I came to visit,\" Nina replied before walking over to Daniel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Headmaster! Everything over there is settled, so I came to have some fun.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine, just be careful,\" Daniel replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the past few days, Nina had been guarding Nora. If there had been any danger, Nina would have evacuated her immediately. Her presence here indicated that Nora was safe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Letting Nina explore Sunken City for a while seemed harmless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the entrance, a commotion arose as Dragonscale Bank guards entered, maintaining order in the area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is Dragonscale Bank—no disturbances allowed! Who is causing trouble here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guards scanned the crowd sternly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All eyes turned to Rikki, who had been shouting earlier and even bumped into several customers while running around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Ryze had been there to prevent any damage; otherwise, Rikki might have smashed into the counters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ryze glanced at Nina, seemingly blaming her for teasing the bear and causing it to get caught by the guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing here? Return to your original spots!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the general manager descended from upstairs, reprimanding the guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's going on here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"General Manager, someone was causing a disturbance in Dragonscale Bank!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guards reported, their eyes fixed on Rikki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing their hostility, Rikki quickly ran behind Daniel, clinging to his leg for protection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the general manager immediately understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's fine. There's nothing for you to handle here. Return to your posts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, sir.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guards retreated to their positions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Esteemed customer, here are the fire crystals and pure fire stones you requested. They've been carefully packaged.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The general manager handed a storage crystal to Daniel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After confirming its contents, Daniel left with Rose and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Daniel's departing figure, the general manager turned and ascended to Dragonscale Bank's upper floors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A customer so mysterious and powerful, who could casually produce such an astronomical number of mana stones, must belong to a significant force. This had to be reported to the administrator. Your journey continues with empire\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the highest level of Sunken City's Dragonscale Bank, the administrator's office managed all affairs of the bank in the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had Daniel been present, he would have immediately recognized someone in the room—Elise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The same Elise who had once disguised herself as a diamond knight, fooling even Daniel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Currently, she stood before the Sunken City Dragonscale Bank's head administrator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The meeting room's atmosphere was tense, verging on explosive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A middle-aged man slammed the table with his palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Elise, what is the meaning of this?\" he demanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man, Reno, was the head administrator of Dragonscale Bank in Sunken City. Years ago, he had been assigned here to prepare for the upcoming Battle for Dominance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After years of planning, the battle was now imminent, and victory seemed within reach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, Elise had arrived, demanding they abandon the fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you even know what you're saying?\" Reno asked angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know exactly what I'm saying, Administrator Reno,\" Elise replied calmly. \"Lake City is not a place worth pursuing… I'm thinking of Dragonscale Bank's best interests.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1161,"2026-06-06T15:56:16.255Z",1,"novelbin.me","9a11a4ff51280780527e40d0c05454ed3e34cd043c33a22fe30711868cd23637","imprisoned-for-a-trillion-years-i-was-worshipped-chapter-139","imprisoned-for-a-trillion-years-i-was-worshipped-chapter-137",734,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimprisoned-for-a-trillion-years-i-was-worshipped-cover.jpg"]
