Chapter 344: Chapter 339: The Favoured by Destiny Chapter 344: Chapter 339: The Favoured by Destiny After verifying the authenticity of these legendary metals, Muria very generously paid fifty thousand cubic Elemental Crystals—this transactions, purchasing legendary metals with Elemental Crystals, no matter how you looked at it, he got a good deal.

The only complication was the payment process with the Elemental Crystals. One cubic meter of Elemental Crystals was considered one unit, so a hundred thousand units amounted to a mountain of crystals.

After sorting out his calculations, Muria loaded these Elemental Crystals into two space rings and handed them over to the shameless green-skinned goblin standing before him.

“Do you need anything else? I have all sorts of goods for sale.”

The green-skinned goblin tapped its skinny chest, assuring Muria, and added, “However, I do not sell intelligent creatures.”

“You have everything for sale?” Muria laughed, his claim was grand indeed.

“Can you procure a Divine Attribute, Divine Fire for me?”

Muria, looking at the green-skinned goblin before him with a teasing gaze, was also testing its capabilities.

“Well…, ” the Green-skinned goblin scratched its nearly bald head. “I currently don’t have any Divine Attributes or Divine Fire. If you want them, I’d have to trade with other merchants.”

“But…” The Goblin looked at Muria in front of it, “Even if I had the Divine Fire or Divine Attribute, you wouldn’t be able to afford them.”

“You truly can procure Divine Attributes and Divine Fire.” Muria didn’t mind the slightly derogatory remarks of this green-skinned goblin. Instead, he focused on the message behind them. It truly did have the ability to procure deity-like entities, Divine Attributes, and sell them as commodities.

Divine Attributes, divinity, and Divine Fire are all intangible. They only manifest in physical forms under certain exceptional circumstances, allowing mere mortals the opportunity to seize them.

“As long as you can afford them, I can procure anything you want.” The Goblin confidently stated.

“What exactly are you?” Muria studied the goblin before him, “Why can only I see you?”

“Ten cubic elemental crystals.” The Goblin stated the price with a large grin on his face.

“What?” Muria was taken aback, he couldn’t fathom what the goblin meant.

“Respected guest, information is also a kind of commodity. If you want to know why only you can see me, you have to pay, then I can tell you.” The green-skinned Goblin explained, using the most respectful tone to convey its most shameless statement.

Muria narrowed his eyes and extended his hand towards the goblin, “Hand them over.”

“What?” Now it was this shameless Goblin Merchant’s turn to be stunned.

“Hand back the two space rings I just gave you,” demanded Muria from his towering height.

“These were your payment, respected sir.”

“Only the crystals inside the ring are payment—the rings themselves still belong to me.”

“Honorable guest, you are so generous, as great as the sun in the sky. You shouldn’t be arguing over the ownership of two space rings with me—a lowly, pitiful goblin.” The green-skinned goblin shamelessly praised him, trying to talk his way out of it.

Listenting to such praises, Muria, who had never planned to haggle with this goblin, looked down at the goblin: “Who told you, gave you the impression, that I’m very generous?”

The green-skinned goblin looked dumbfounded at the young man perched on the shoulder of a curious white cat, His eyes shifted from a dazzling gold to a vertical slits. Unconsciously, he retreated a step. “Dragon!?”

The Goblin merchant looked at Muria in shock, but the shock on its face quickly turned into a joyful expression. Strong feelings of pride and arrogance swelled in its heart.

It had traded with a mighty dragon, not only had it profited from him, but it had also swindled him.

“Either give my rings back, or answer my question,” said Muria, revealing some part of his dragon-like traits staring at this goblin.

From its reaction, the goblin was not very powerful—at least not on par with the Dragon King. It couldn’t see through his true form, but its exact power level was tough to discern.

This goblin’s existance and its powers were too peculiar and beyond Muria’s comprehension.

“All right, I’ll answer your question,” the damnned green dwarf chose to answer without pondering. Return the space rings to Muria? That’s a joke! Apart from the goods already paid for, not even a single copper piece would be handed over from its hands to anyone else.

“So what exactly are you?”

“Goblin Merchant.”

“Be more specific.” Muria was unsatisfied with this answer.

“Planar Merchant.”

“Why is it that others can’t see you?” Finally hearing a valuable response, Muria’s spirits perked up and he continued his interrogation.

“That’s a talent I possess.”

“Why can I see you?”

“Because you are the chosen one, who is blessed by destiny. Hence I appeared here, and you can see me—it’s all guided by destiny.” The Goblin’s gaze was steady.

“Destiny?” Muria mulled over the word but he wasn’t moved in the least bit by it.

Hadn’t he heard what the Goblin before him said? He was a protector of destiny, not an oppressed one. Muria was a direct beneficiary, there was no need for him to resist destiny.

Moreover, Muria was a bit hesitant to believe in destiny. If destiny truly existed, then all outcomes were already predetermined. Then efforts, struggles, and diligence would be meaningless. Therefore, Muria didn’t want to believe.

“So, my meeting you here was pre-destined by fate?” Muria questioned, but quickly felt uneasy about his question. Finding the ugly face of the goblin before him not comforting in the least.

“Pei, who’s fated to meet you?” Before Muria could say anything, the goblin was already indignant, “We just happened to bump into each other here.

“It’s not like you are the only one chosen by destiny nor am I the only Planar Merchant. Even if you didn’t run into me, you’d eventually meet another Planar Merchant in some unexpected place.”

“So basically, those who are chosen by destiny, will definitely run into one of your group of Planar Merchants.” Muria summarized.
