Now that 008 had picked up on Kisha's determination to buy the blueprint at any cost, it felt a surge of energy. After all, a cut in sales meant points would be added to its ranking, and the more it sold, the higher its score climbed. Thrilled by the prospect, it immediately set to work hunting down the blueprint. Both Kisha and 008 were buzzing with excitement.
"Don't worry, Host! I'll find that blueprint!" 008 declared, invigorated and redoubling its efforts to locate the elusive Lightbrain blueprint. Before long, it succeeded.
"Host… it seems… since this comes from a higher civilization, a higher realm, the price isn't exactly cheap…" 008 said, hesitating slightly.
"How much is the blueprint?" Kisha asked, a flicker of nervousness creeping into her voice. Earlier, she had sounded confident, but that was before she considered the reality: many things from beyond Earth were bound to be costly, and if it came from a higher realm, the price could be astronomical.
