YM778.TV Chapter 24 - Relaxing(3)
Since the bakery location with the magic shop was quite close, they only walked a few minutes before arriving in front of the shop.
From the outside, this shop seemed very ordinary; there was nothing magical at all; if not for the Magical Shop nameplate hanging over the door, people might think this is someone else\'s house.
When they entered, they couldn\'t see anything, as they were surrounded by darkness. Clementine immediately frowned.
"Uhm ... Hello, Excuse me.
"Mr. Frank, are you there?" Clementine tried to call a few times, but like an uninhabited house, there was no answer.
Desmond also became irritated; he then saw something sparkling at the end of the room. When Desmond wanted to approach it, Alice, who had been scared, suddenly pulled Desmond\'s clothes.
"Where do you want to go?" Alice said while hugging Desmond\'s left hand.
"Come with me; I want to check something over there," Desmond said, taking Alice\'s hand and walking towards the shiny object.
When Desmond stepped out of the area near the door, candles hanging on the wall lit up one by one, spreading to another candle until all the darkness faded.
As everyone focused on the candles, a figure stood in the middle of the room, wearing a hoodie with a long robe.
"Welcome to the Frankie Fox Shop."
Judging from the voice, this was an older man, roughly 40 years old, with a long white beard that touched the floor. The man was dressed like a sorcerer, wearing a long robe and wearing a hoodie covering his face.
When Desmond saw this man, he immediately ordered the system, \'System, scan the person in front of me.\'
[Scanning the target..]

\'It seems like getting to the 2nd Wizard is harder than I thought,\' thought Desmond with a sour face. Because a few years ago, he heard what his mother and father had said about how difficult it was to find the ingredients to advance to the 2nd wizard.
After Desmond finished scanning Frankie, he felt Frankie sticking to him with a smile. "Hello, little boy, do you want something?"
Although Desmond could not see his face, he was sure that the man was smiling noisily. Desmond turned his gaze to see that shiny thing again, which turned out to be on the room\'s corner shelf.
He then returned to the owner of the shop and also smiled. "Ehm ... sorry for my impudence, Mr. I\'m just curious about that thing, "Desmond said as he pretended to cough and pointed at it.
The thing Desmond was pointing at was a crystal floating on the shelf. This tiny obelisk-shaped crystal was translucent plum purple in color, and it also had pure energy from nature.
Frankie turned to the direction Desmond was pointing at and looked back at Desmond; he saw the clothes Desmond was wearing and the guard behind. "If I may know, what is the need for the young master?"
"Ah, take it easy. This is not for anything dangerous, I\'m just a little curious." Of course, Desmond understood this shop owner; he answered without taking his eyes off the crystal.
Desmond\'s parents said that not just anyone could buy equipment in a magic shop. If it weren\'t for Desmond bringing Clementine to the shop, maybe he would have tried a little harder to convince the shop owner. Perhaps he would be forced to use his parents\' name.

It\'s been many times since the system\'s sound rang in his mind every time he saw the crystal.
Previously, when Desmond had gone to the bakery, the System found an item that contained a high level of unique energy. He opened the map and saw that energy near the road where he had been passing. This was the reason he suddenly wanted to go to the magic shop.
As Desmond was daydreaming, he suddenly felt someone touch his back.
"Ara, ara ... here, let this aunt bring that item for you," Clementine said. She had observed Desmond\'s expression for a while. She really liked to tease him.
This was the first time she had met a boy like Desmond, who had mature behavior. This behavior made her curious about Desmond\'s parents.
Meanwhile, Diana was getting annoyed since her mother was always teasing Desmond and ignoring their purpose to come here.
"Mother, let\'s find my stuff," Diana snapped while tugging at Clementine\'s sleeve.
"Ara, my little daughter is jealous; see you later, little Desmond," Clementine said and went up to the second floor with Diana.
"Boy, do you still want to buy it?" Frankie, who had been waiting for their conversation to end, was getting impatient. At first, he was glad that Clementine would bring his item. In this Kingdom, everyone knows Clementine and her family background.
"Ah, sorry for earlier, so how much?" Desmond realized after Frankie asked him.
After finishing the transaction, Desmond and Alice wanted to go straight to the toy store, but Desmond wanted to say goodbye to Clementine and her daughter.
After a few minutes of waiting, they had not yet come down.
"Let\'s go, Desmond, just leave them alone." Alice grew impatient as she looked towards the stairs.
"All right, uncle, convey my greetings to the lady earlier." Desmond then left without waiting for Frankie\'s answer.
Frankie, who saw this, just kept quiet before returning to tidying up his shop items.
...
After exiting the shop, Alice suddenly approached Desmond and whispered something; Desmond just nodded before using the spell, and the two of them disappeared.
The guard escorting Desmond had just come out and wanted to accompany their master again, but they didn\'t find their master and panicked.
"Search in all directions, we split up," ordered the captain.
\'Please, young master/miss, I hope this is your little trick.\' Sweat could be seen on his forehead, even his eyes wandered into the crowd on the street.
"Yes, Captain."
