My System Increases My power Every Day Without Missions and Levelling

"Take this first!"

Lilith finally gave in when Richard stayed silent.

She directly transferred ten thousand Nature Spirits into Richard's ring.

That amount might not have been much in her eyes.

"Can you use Mind Attack on me first?" she asked.

"Not until I get my items," Richard replied.

This time, Lilith began panting softly.

Both her cheeks flushed red, yet the sight was enough to make any man lose his mind.

"Hmph!" Lilith snorted before standing up, clearly in a very foul mood.

She left in a hurry.

Even if she was angry, Richard didn't care.

To him, this was truly a fair trade, because once Lilith mastered Mind Attack—even if only at 1%—she would become tremendously powerful.

Who knew? Once she broke through the first threshold, she might advance even further.

Richard was left alone in the house, and he couldn't help but wonder again where Sister Lisa was, since she still hadn't returned.

Unfortunately, he had no information about her destination.

He rose from his seat and put on the Phantom Cloak Lilith had given him.

It was large, but astonishingly, it instantly altered his appearance.

His body hadn't actually changed, but the cloak created a false layer over him that felt completely real.

With just a thought, the cloak shifted from white to black.

Richard was satisfied with the result. He even discovered that his voice could be altered into that of an older man.

He quickly left Lilith's house.

There was one thing he wanted to do: sell the Cymora Soil—or more precisely, exchange it for something of equal value because he really didn't need that and had no interest in Magic Plant cultivation. He wanted it to be replaced with something useful for combat.

The Night Valley City naturally had entire districts filled with Magic Shops.

In fact, every Magic Shop in this city was quite large.

The most eye-catching one bore the emblem of a black moon—Moonshadow Magic Shop, a business owned by the Moonshadow Clan, said to have branches all across the kingdom.

Richard noticed most people chose that shop because it was widely known to trade honestly.

Despite his feelings toward the clan, Richard still decided to enter that shop.

Like most Magic Shops, the place was dominated by books and weapons.

The difference was, they sold far more Sky Armors in various designs.

Many items were so striking that Richard's eyes lit up. However, when it came to Tier 3 weapons, he only saw three of them.

He approached a large display case filled with mysterious-looking objects—various kinds of artifacts.

All were neatly arranged, with the best placed at the very top.

Naturally, Richard was drawn to the best item there: a single gold coin.

He had no idea what it was, but for some reason, his Fire and Lightning Elements seemed to resonate with it.

Richard waved over a shop attendant.

"What is this coin?" he asked.

"Sir, this is called the Ignis Volt Core, an artifact that can absorb fire and lightning, then release them as high-speed laser blasts capable of long-range attacks and piercing through anything…" the attendant explained.

"Really?" Richard was somewhat surprised.

"Then how much fire and lightning can this artifact hold?" Richard asked again.

He was deeply intrigued by the coin, but the most important detail was, of course, its capacity.

If it couldn't store a vast amount of fire and lightning, it would only be of limited use to him.

"It can hold an enormous amount, sir. This item was personally discovered by Lady Rebecca. Lady Rebecca said the Ignis Volt Core was very useful even for a Magus of her level. Unfortunately, she only has lightning power, not fire, so she couldn't maximize the artifact's potential. That's why she placed it here, hoping to exchange it for something else."

"Ohh…" Richard hadn't expected that his mother was the one who found it.

"So this item can only be exchanged for another?" he asked.

"Yes, something of equal value. Of course, we don't accept just anything—only what our shop deems desirable."

"What about Cymora Soil? Would you accept that?"

"Cymora Soil?" The attendant was shocked. "Yes, we would accept it. Please wait while I inform the manager," he said, hurrying upstairs.

Richard had only asked and hadn't even said he wanted to exchange yet, but the attendant was already calling for the manager.

Still, Richard decided to wait.

Not long after, he saw the attendant return with a neatly groomed blond middle-aged man who looked friendly.

The man briskly walked toward Richard.

He observed the cloaked figure for a moment before asking, "Do you truly wish to exchange Cymora Soil for the Ignis Volt Core?"

"Yes—if you add twenty thousand Nature Spirits," Richard replied.

Cymora Soil could enhance one's affinity with the Earth Element, even helping it reach 90%. But that wasn't its only use—it could also be cultivated with Magical Plants. Richard felt its value was still higher, not equal to just the Ignis Volt Core.

"This…" The manager hesitated upon hearing those words.

"Sir, that's too much," he said.

"If you agree, we can trade. If not, then there's no need," Richard answered firmly.

The other party clearly wanted the Cymora Soil—how could he not demand more?

The manager fell into deep thought, weighing the pros and cons.

Twenty thousand Nature Spirits was certainly no small amount. But even if they spent all their Nature Spirits, it was nearly impossible to buy Cymora Soil elsewhere.

The item was extremely useful for resource cultivation—something the clan would naturally keep for themselves.

It wasn't that the clan didn't already own some, but with an additional Cymora Soil, they could expand their Magical Plant cultivation significantly.

"You must decide quickly, or I'll leave," Richard said again, taking a step away.

"Alright, alright… very well," the manager quickly relented, afraid Richard would walk away.

"May I see the Cymora Soil?" the manager asked.

Casually, Richard brought out the object—a plate-like piece made of earth.

It immediately drew the attention of other customers.

But inside this shop, there was no way anyone would dare to rob him.

The manager's eyes lit up at the sight. He then retrieved the gold coin from the display and produced a large pouch.

"Sir, here are twenty thousand Nature Spirits," the manager said.

Richard took the pouch and the golden coin at once, then handed the Cymora Soil to the manager.

The latter promptly left after securing it.
