Re: Evolution Online

As Liam walked into the door with the little fox closely following behind him, a small being appeared in front of him, greeting him at the doorstep. "Welcome. Welcome."

He stared at the creature, whom he had not seen for a while now. A fairy. 

She had shiny, sparkly wings on her back, which she fluttered as she hovered in front of him, eyeing him curiously. 

She was wearing a silvery white dress that complimented her silver hair, and she also had a big, friendly smile on her face. She looked quite cute and adorable. 

But Liam knew better than to be carried away by this smile. He remained silent.

"Hello, I am Tilia. How may I help you today?"

He ignored the pleasantries and curtly replied. "I would like to register my class and look at the items for purchase. I would also like to trade in a few things."

Oh? The fairy was taken aback a little bit. 

A human who was not swayed by her heart-melting cuteness. This was new. Her eyes gleamed with interest as she flashed another smile and moved aside. 

"Welcome, Sir. Please come in. I will guide you through the registration process." She winked.

"And since you are the first person to register in the entire world, you will receive a special bonus."

Huh? It was now Liam's turn to be startled. He was so nervous about registering for his class that he did not think something like this would be there. 

"A bonus for the first person, huh? I am not going to say no to that." He grinned as he thought to himself.

The fairy led him inside the building, which was rather unusual. He felt as if he was getting some sort of VIP treatment. 

Usually, these creatures were very snarky and greedy. There were several times in his last life when more than one of these bug women spat on him for not possessing enough money.

And now they were being kind and humble? He just couldn't get used to this polite treatment. Liam ignored the fairy and looked around.

The interior of the building was completely different from the exterior. While from the outside, the building might just look like a simple, random brick-walled structure, the inside was sparkling and pristine.

The shop's distinctiveness was enhanced by the bright and spotless white marble floors, the sophisticated and exquisite carvings on the walls that belonged only in royal palaces, and, importantly, the dainty female creatures that could seduce countless men.

But the most mysterious aspect of the shop was its own origin. Where did this shop come from? What was its purpose here? Nobody knew the answers to these questions.

Liam never understood the reason behind this mysterious shop in his last lifetime, and now nothing had changed. However, he didn't care too much about these things. He was far more concerned about what was to come next.

Looking at the bigger picture and thinking about everything that had happened up until now, including the hand of the divine temple in all the events, was a luxury he couldn't afford just yet. 

Even if he wanted to think about these things, there was nothing he could do at his level. Only when he became stronger, perhaps, could he get some clues about these mysterious factions.

He silently followed the fairy as she continued to lead him inside the shop. To his surprise, they had crossed all four desks on the ground floor of the shop, but they were still heading further in.

Where were they going?

"In here." Tilia beamed with another sweet smile. 

All her actions were innocent and pure, just like the white dress she wore, but there was a sort of seductive teasing charm to that innocence as if she were testing the limits of the man in front of her, watching and waiting for him to slip.

Unfortunately for her, Liam had absolutely no reaction whatsoever. 

He was already used to being around women much more dangerous than her. Both Shen Yue and his two self-proclaimed wives from the nether realm had far more of an impact on him than this petite fairy.

Instead, what piqued his interest was… why was she going out of her way to make an impression on him? These creatures clearly did not care about humans. 

After the first beast wave itself, it was almost as if they decided that this race was doomed and treated everyone with a condescending tone and mockery. 

So why was this one behaving differently now?

Liam only had to think about it for a moment before the realization dawned on him. His answer was there in his question itself. This difference in treatment was precisely because of the same first beast wave outcome.

However, this time, at least in this area, they hadn't suffered a massive loss. Instead, everything was already under control, and the gates had also been taken care of. So obviously, these creatures also changed their attitudes.

Besides, his level at the moment was also quite abnormal, far exceeding that of normal beginners. 

All these told Liam one thing. These two-faced bitches behaved nicely to people with power and trampled on those who did not possess any. 

First, it was the divine temple and now, these fairies. Were there no fair and just races in the world? Heh. Liam chuckled wryly at this naive thought. Of course, there wasn't. 

Only power and wealth spoke loudly. The strong had rights, and the weak had to lay low and pray for their future, wishing on a shooting star. Such was the cruelty of the world.

"This way." The fairy opened a private door to reveal a large room. 

And on this mahogany door, two words were clearly inscribed in silver ink.

Store Manager

Liam couldn't help but gasp inwardly as he saw these two words. Store manager? This fairy who was talking to him was actually the store manager?! 

This was a surprise to him. This meant she should have an in-depth familiarity with both the store and the current events of the world at large.

Perhaps there were some advantages to being friendly with this fairy. For the first time, Liam smiled back at her.
