'I knew it… They're not showing their best products…' Shane mused as he realized what was going on.
The shopkeeper leaned closer and then lowered his voice as if revealing a secret. "It's here…"
From beneath the counter, he carefully placed a small chest on the table.
When he opened it, a faint golden glow spilled out, illuminating the scales on his gauntlets.
Inside rested a single item…
"This is a Dragonheart Vein Crystal."
A wave of gold energy pulsed faintly, as though it were alive.
Although the shopkeeper closed it immediately, the aura it emitted was heavy, carrying both warmth and pressure, like standing near the breath of a living dragon.
Shane could already guess what kind of crystal it was.
