Re: Evolution Online-Novel

Meanwhile…

"Madam Tilia, our scores are in!" A fairy rushed into the store manager's office. "Just like you predicted, we have the highest score so far among all the shops on this planet." 

"We received bonus points for both our first evolver registration and our first guild registration. We have really hit it big this time!"

"Hmph! There's nothing to be shocked about. Everything was well within my expectations." Tilia scoffed at the simpleton whose eyes were bulging with happiness from just this much.

She waved the fairy away and muttered under her breath. "This is just the beginning. There is a lot more to come." 

Tilia leaned back in her chair, feeling satisfied with the success of her shop. It was all thanks to her hard work and dedication, and she was determined to keep it up.

​ She laughed as she twirled the paperweight on her desk, remembering the big fish that had gotten caught in her net. "I am going to milk you dry." She licked her lips.

Coincidentally, a fairy knocked on the door at the same time. "Madan Tilia… ah… something is happening."

"Huh? What are you talking about? Be more specific." She brushed her silver hair back with disinterest.

"Madam Tilia, please check the store quest board." The fairy, who was sweating profusely, did not know how to explain things and blurted out in urgency.

Hmmm? Tilia calmly checked the board, but the next second, her eyes as well widened in shock. What the heck was going on in her shop?

She gulped as her silver-blue eyes traced all the transactions happening in her shop. So many quests had been submitted in the last hour! And all by the same guild, or rather, the same individual!

Ka ta. The fairy stood up in shock, making the chair she was sitting on tumble and fall down. 

When she had joked earlier about using undead minions to finish the tasks, she had merely remarked casually. But now… did this man somehow accomplish such a thing?

Otherwise, how was it possible for someone to finish so many trivial quests? Moreover, it looked like he was not done just yet. He was still continuing to submit these quests at a ridiculous pace.

How did this person even obtain so many raw materials, to begin with? Even if his level was unusually high for a beginner evolver, it still shouldn't be easy to accomplish this feat.

These kinds of things were time-consuming. Not to mention the processing that comes after killing the beast.

Tilia gulped. There was also another thing that nagged her. 

Judging from the sheer quantity of the items submitted, this kind of capacity far exceeded the limits of a normal spatial ring. So, what sort of spatial item did this human being possess?

This strange person was full of mysteries! 

Just a while ago, she was amusing herself by thinking of this person as someone who could be easily manipulated, but now she was forced to see this same person in a different light.

No, this was not someone she could take lightly. At the same time, this did not necessarily spell bad news. Rather…

"Liam." She muttered to herself. "I need to find out more about this human being." She licked her lips as she quickly walked out of her office. She already had a new plan. If everything worked out… then perhaps…

A strange glint flashed in her calculating eyes as she pulled up her lips to reveal the familiar, friendly, charming smile. "Mr. Liam, you sure know how to keep us on our toes. Tee hee."

Tilia waved her hands, dismissing the fairy who was attending to Liam and began to attend to him personally. "Please allow me to help you finish the rest of your transactions." She smiled cutely.

Liam did not say anything and simply nodded. At this moment, he was moving his hands at a fast pace like a bot. He accepted the quest, took the item, and immediately thudded it onto the desk made of clear crystal material in front of him.

He did not stop or pause. He simply kept repeating the same thing. Tilia flashed a smile at the sight of the hardworking man and waved away all the mana cores that were making a mess.

Instead, she summoned a store card that automatically tallied everything and kept the mana core numbers up to date with every transaction Liam did. 

She also did not flinch or feel disgusted as she handled all the raw materials herself, storing them in appropriate store vaults.

By now, Alex had already registered with their guild. She stood with Luna and watched the show with a bitter smile on her face. Seeing how everything was going, she suddenly felt like an idiot to have even questioned Liam when he made that huge purchase.

This world had two different sets of rules, one for people like her and the other for monsters like him. It was simply idiotic to compare both of them with the same rules.

After some time, she sighed silently and decided to return to their temporary base. Things were clearly going to continue for a while, so she decided to use this time to inform others as well to get to the shop and finish their guild registration.

And just like her, everyone else who entered the shop also had similar expressions on their faces as they watched Liam in action. Their big boss was simply too overpowered!

This went on for another few hours until Liam was finally done around midnight. "Phew!" He chuckled awkwardly as he looked up to find all the fairies in the shop gathered around him and looking at him in shock and awe.

And the most notable person was the fairy right in front of him. The incredibly alluring and charming Tilia blushed lightly as she gave her usual flirtatious smile.

"Mr. Liam, your hands…" She suddenly reached forward and grabbed Liam's hands, bringing them close to her chest.
