Chapter 158: Business With Xie Lua

"That sounds erotic," Zach muttered and shot a glance at Aurora.

SIGH!

Aurora sighed and shook her head at Zach. Then, she rolled her eyes and turned to Xie Lua.

"Can you show them?" Aurora asked.

Xie Lua raised her brows at Zach and then turned to Aurora before saying, "Will you wear them if I show them to you?"

"Oh hell no!" Aurora waved her hand and said, "Nevermind. I will pass. Just show me half-body armor."

Xie Lua showed three half-body armors to Aurora, but all of them were thick and ugly looking in Zach's eyes. Sure, they looked good, but Zach didn't like them because they weren't helping in increasing Aurora's beauty.

'He is choosing armor for me…' Aurora uttered inwardly. 'Can this be considered a date?!'

Zach looked at Xie Lua and said, "Come on. Show different clothes."

"This is not a shopping mall, Zach," Xie Lua remarked. "This is a shop, and shops have limited items."

Zach pondered for a while and said, "Then show something that can match Aurora's beauty, if not make her look better."

"Like this…" Zach raised his hands and showed Xie Lua the gloves. "It makes me look cool."

'That's because they are made by your father…' Xie Lua turned to the side and searched through her stuff to find something.

"Why can't I buy a sword?" Aurora asked Zach.

"Because…" Zach shrugged his shoulders and said, "No sword is worthy of you. Besides, this shop doesn't have good swords."

"Excuse me?!" Xie Lua frowned her face and said, "I can take back my gloves, you know?"

"You…can…?" Zach stuttered.

"Yeah. I am still the rightful owner of the gloves." After a brief pause, she said, "They are soul-bound to me."

"Umm… I don't think someone else can equip soul-bound equipment," Aurora quipped.

"You are right. But it also registers its crafter as its original master." Xie Lua turned to Zach and continued, "So that's the only reason Zach can equip them."

"I don't remember crafting them…" Zach raised his brows in confusion and squinted his eyes to think harder.

"Not you, but your father did," Xie Lua responded in a calm voice.

Aurora raised her hand to get their attention and said, "I am so confused right now. Can someone explain to me what's going on?"

"I have no idea either," Zach sighed.

"Erza summoned in the real world and asked me to take care of you," Xie Lua asserted.

"…!"

"Who is Erza?" Aurora asked.

"She is my…well, mother," Zach answered. "But how do you know her?" Zach asked Xie Lua.

Xie Lua sighed in disbelief and said, "Do you still not remember me?"

"Why is this scenario similar to the time Aquitius introduced himself as your uncle Tis…" Aurora remarked.

Xie Lua poked her finger on Zach's chest and said, "I am the Phoenix who gave you the blessing."

"But… that Phoenix died fighting alongside father…" Zach muttered in confusion.

"Yes." Xie Lua nodded and said, "I would have died if my master hadn't saved me at the last minute."

Zach stared into Xie Lua's eyes and asked, "Is my father alive?"

"I have no idea. Believe me. But our master-servant control still hasn't been severed, so at least, his soul is still alive," Xie Lua answered honestly.

"I see…"

Aurora noticed the sad look on Zach's face, so he patted his back and said, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah." Zach nodded with a sigh and said, "I don't know if I should be happy or not. But if he comes back home, I am going to punch him to my heart's content. I will beat him for every time my sister Zoe cried after remembering him, for every time mother smiled wryly because of him. It was… my birthday when he… disappeared. So I still get sad on my birthday."

Xie Lua smiled after hearing that and said, "Give him some punches on my behalf too."

"Enough talking now." Zach cleared his throat and said, "Can you show something to Aurora."

"I can arrange a full-body cloth armor. It would just be like regular clothes, but it will be armor," Xie Lua stated.

"Will it be beautiful looking?" Aurora asked with a curious look on her face.

"It certainly would be." Xie Lua walked out from behind her stall and stood in front of Zach and Aurora. "They will be similar to what I am wearing but somewhat different."

"Yeah, they look fantastic," Aurora said and turned to Zach. "Don't you think so too, Zach?'

"Yeah, she looks good."

SIGH!

Xie Lua sighed after hearing Zach's praise and thought, 'He is just like my master. Complimenting people without realizing it and causing a misunderstanding. I can already feel the pain of the girls who would fall in love with him. Poor girls, I can hear your cries.'

Xie Lua forgot to include herself because she couldn't sympathize with herself.

"But when will I know if you have the armor?" Aurora asked curiously.

"Time passes differently here, so, unfortunately, I cannot tell you the exact date or time. But Zach would be coming here often, so I will tell him when it's available," Xie Lua said with a smile on her face and turned to Zach. "Right, Zach?"

"That depends on how my MP potions business goes," Zach scoffed.

"Now that I am done dealing with the customer, let's talk business," Xie Lua said as she walked back to her stall again.

Zach held Aurora's hand and said, "Just watch me."

Xie Lua placed Zach's MP potions on the stall in front of Zach and said, "Before we start, how many potions do you have with you?"

"Around 80," Zach replied. He only had a few, but he created more of them after he received magic power to craft more potion bottles.

"That's too little for its demand," Xie Lua stated. "You have to keep making them."

"Wait a minute. First, tell me what bidding it got. Then, I will think about it. If I don't see them worth it, I am not wasting my precious time making potions instead of squeezing her boobs," Zach uttered nonchalantly with a straight face.

"Very well. The highest bid of your potion was…"
