Magic Shop System

Everyone looked around and realized that they were standing in a place that someone hadn't taken care of for ages. A building was standing in front of them, studded with cracks and covered in dirt. Kadyn noticed confused expressions on everyone's faces, so he explained. "Alright guys. This is the new location for our shop."

"Waah... so this is where we are going to do our business." They looked around and started to check their surroundings.

"Yeah," Kadyn nodded. "But before that, we have work to do. Half of us will clean the grass and weeds and half of us will demolish that building."

Everyone bobbed their heads in understanding. Their faces were covered in excitement. After such a long time they had a place where they could stay without being afraid of city guards.

In no time they started to work. The women were cleaning out the shrubs and wild plants while the men were demolishing the building. Except for Kove. He had no magic power and his body was too weak. Kadyn feared that he would get hurt so he let him tag along with the weed-cleaning party.

"Haha, I have learned a new spell," Slyff suddenly walked towards the building confidently and laughed. "Let me show you guys how powerful I have become. Huh!"

As everyone eyed him curiously, his body started to change and in time he turned into a giant monkey. His body was covered in black hair; muscles could be seen underneath them. He balled his fingers into a fist and punched at the building.

"Boom!"

To everyone's shock, a hole appeared on the wall through which they could see the other side of the house. This strength could even compare to the Rank 1 spells, but everyone knew that the guy was still only an Elementary mage. Slyff looked at their surprised faces and said somewhat arrogantly. "I am only a 10-star elementary mage, but my strength… hehe, do I even need to say?"

Khrom and Dion's lips twitched when they saw his arrogant pose. Khrom narrowed his eyes and then he walked out without saying anything and then swung his hand. Afterwards, he walked back to his position as silently as he went. Just when Slyff was about to speak, a booming sound came from behind him. When he turned around his eyes almost bulged out of their sockets. "What the…"

The upper half of the building had vanished and was lying on the ground in bits and pieces as if crushed by the grinder, but a slate line could be seen on the remaining walls as if someone had sliced the upper part of the building like an apple.

Slyff looked at the scene and his lips trembled and then he slowly stood at the side not speaking anything. He thought that he had already surpassed Khrom when he successfully practised the 10-star King Kong Transformation spell. However, who would have thought that Khrom had become even more terrifying and powerful.

Slyff shook his head, but he didn't lose his confidence. How could such a small setback make him despair? He never admitted defeat when he was at the bottom of this world. There was no chance he would admit defeat now.

Nonetheless, there was someone else whose expression had turned awful at this moment. Dion looked at the two of them as if they were monsters. Just a few months prior Slyff was nothing but a brat no one cared about, and now he had already become so powerful. Though Khrom was strong, Dion thought that he would not be too far behind him. There was no comparison between him and them anymore. However, he could guess that it was due to the spells they had gotten from the library, but still…

'I need to earn energy points so I could also enjoy the books and scrolls inside the library.' He clenched his fist as he thought about it.

Kadyn smiled when he noticed the altering expression of everyone. "Being proud and confident is a good thing," he said. "However, always remember there is not much difference in being proud and arrogant. If you want to become truly strong, you need to remember that thin line between confidence and arrogance."

Slyff's face turned crimson in embarrassment when he heard his words. Though Kadyn didn't point towards a specific person, he knew that Kadyn was warning him to not be conceited.

"Alright, get to work. There is a lot of work to do." Kadyn said. So everyone nodded and started to shower the building with spells. Barret had done most of the damage, as he was the earth elemental mage. But others also didn't lag much behind. And in no time, the entire building had been flattened into bits and pieces.

When the people on the road saw the scene playing in front of them. They exclaimed.

"Wow, look at those people. They have demolished the entire building as if it was made of cards."

"Look at that gorilla punching so furiously. He is so powerful."

"That wind mage is not bad either."

"Who cares about those men? Look at those beautiful ladies. How could someone make them clean rubbish?"

"So beautiful!"

"..."

Though Elora, Nefia, Ceceilia and others ignored everyone, they still felt embarrassed when people pointed at them. "Ahh, so frustrating," Elora grumbled.

Cecelia looked at her and shook her head. Then she waved her hand and dark energy released from it, vanishing into the ground. Shortly after that the green shrubs and plants lost their greenery and dried, becoming lifeless. 

"Wow," Zelie's eyes lit up when she saw this. "Why didn't I think about that? Let me try this as well."

Then she flicked her hand and threw a ball of fire towards the withered plants. "Hehe, isn't this more convenient?"

Cecelia eyed her and then at the burning fire and said. "We are in trouble."

"Huh?" Zelie looked at her confusedly. "What do you mean?"

"Look at that," Cecelia said.

Zelie and others followed her gaze, and their bodies stiffened. The fire which was supposed to burn the trash that remained after the trees dried was burning so furiously that it felt as if in no time it would turn the Food Market into ash.. "Oh no, the fire is about to reach our neighbouring shop!" Elora shouted.
