"Elf, time to trade!"
By habit, Orion first reached out to Aerin for Pet Pills. But this time, Aerin didn't accept the deal and completely ignored him. Just when Orion was getting puzzled, Aerin's message popped up:
"My dear Hulk, I've raised the quality of my Pet Pills, so the price is going up too!"
"Whoa, the heavens have finally smiled on you!" Orion typed back, suddenly intrigued. "Elf, you've finally had a breakthrough, huh? Go on, then—must be some fancy new product if you're hiking the price twofold?"
A grin tugged at Orion's lips. Truth be told, his response was a subtle attempt to steer Aerin, hinting that if Aerin was set on marking up the rate, Orion considered twofold the absolute cap.
Aerin didn't reply right away. Instead, she initiated a trade, sending over a hundred bottles of high-tier Pet Pills.
