Bab 17: Dragon lady- customer or foe?
"Welcome to Saint Sparks Company!" A pair of ghost employees greeted the surprised guest.
"You must be the dragon lady!" Bradshaw greeted her.
"How perceptive of you, how much do you want?" The dragon lady in the blue dress asked, assuming them to be the kidnappers requesting for ransom. Her leap of conclusion jumped as fast as lightning.
"That will be 150 blue stones ma'am." The two ghost giving their best air steward charming smile.
The dragon lady was caught slightly off guard by the beautiful lady ghost and handsome ghost. "What a pity they died young" the thought flashed in her head in an abrupt instant. Upon regaining her composure, she was stunned by the price, "150 blue stone! That's robbery!"
"That is actually just the entrance fee; to buy the thing you desire you will need to do an equivalent exchange." Answered Bradshaw.
The lady dragon's jaws dropped from her olive shaped face. Her hair turned from purple-ish grey to greyish white.
"Did he mean that I have to give him my body after giving him that 150 blue stones! No! My husband will never agree to it! But he's a ghost so it should not matter right? Since I probably won't feel a thing? Omg... no! No! I am a virtuous mother! My baby.. mother will fight for you!" The dragon lady's face flushed pink and she immediately got into combat stance, "you can take my money but not my body!"
The two ghosts stunned. They knew they encountered someone troublesome but didn't expect her to be so unreasonable too. Aren't dragons known for their wisdom? Why is this dragon lady so... so like that?!
The female ghost with brown hair explained, defusing the situation. "No no, 150 blue stones are only for entrance fee, to buy our products you will need to exchange something equivalent. For example helping us look for a certain treasure et cetera."
"Oh.." Upon calming down, her hair resumed the grey purpleish colours. "Alright! Here's 150 blue stone! You better return him or I will tear the whole shop apart!"
"Ah thank you, please enter this way, my master will tend to you shortly!"
Balloons congratulating the birth of a new baby can be seen in random corners of the shop.
"That bastard!" Her heart filled with bitterness from losing her child and that 150 blue stone upon seeing the congratulatory balloons.
