Eeeek!
The small fox buried her head into Liam's back and her big round eyes were filled with tears to the brim, a few drops even leaking out.
She was able to bear the stink of the swamp but this…
Especially because of the beast's heightened sense of smell, this was pure torture!
She looked at Liam pitifully, but he only smiled back. "Just for a few minutes. Bear with it."
He then patted the wind ripper, pointing to the small isolated hut that was the only thing present in the vicinity.
"Land near that hut."
The bird chirped quietly and circled once to check if there was any danger around. It then gracefully glided down and landed in front of the hut.
On the ground, the foul smell became several folds thicker and now even the bird's eyes were dripping with tears.
Liam also choked a little, before mentally strengthening his resolve. He hopped out and walked to the broken rusted wooden door with a calm expression.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
He lifted his hand and politely announced his presence.
For a few seconds, there was no response, but soon a set of footsteps echoed.
The door banged open suddenly and in front of Liam stood a short skinny old woman with a hunched back.
Her nose was crooked as if it was broken and rejoined and her entire face was covered with pustules.
"I have more nasty things. Want to take a look?"
"As long as you give me enough crystals you can buy everything!"
Liam was once again shocked.. As far as he knew, this woman should only have two items, but it seemed like things were not that simple.
