But when he wanted to send an army of minions to fight against Farasha, Lynn reminded him about something very important despite approving his actions. “As much as I support your idea, I like to remind you that a certain somebody would be disgruntled by your actions.”
“Lol, who would that be? It’s not like i have much to lose from this particular fight” Jin was about to send a message to his army of orcs until he suddenly felt a presence behind him. One that potentially overshadowed the entire room if she had her way.
“Have you forgotten who was the one that is holding the key to your finances all too soon?” Claire said as she pulled his ear.
“Ah!!!!!! Claire! Why are you here?” Jin tried to play innocent but Lynn and Claire both knew that it was not going to work on her a single bit. “I was merely watching some drama show about a teacher blowing up a classroom and then I got notifications from my Sub System that the main System was using stockpiles of resources in a short period of time.” Claire pulled Jin’s ear even further as she continued her reasoning.
“It was only until i saw the main page of Pandamonium that there is a monster rampaging in the store instance at this very moment and I am here to query our dear boss, what in the strange delusion he was having to put a boss monster in our SHOPPING district which contained most of our DELICATE and PRICEY items?”
“I thought the System had already pulled back all those items in another instance, and what’s left in the area were fake duplicates.” Jin also tried to justify the reason for putting it in the main shop instance so that it will catch everyone’s attention in attacking Farasha.
“Even so, what is this that I see right in front of me? Especially that message that is to be sent out to all the orc and goblin soldiers?” Claire asked once more while pointing at the console repeatedly. “Do you really think we have that much reserves to spare for the Great Rat Demon War if you could spend it as you see fit?” She twisted Jin’s ear so hard that he was shaking in his legs and even bending them because he could not tolerate it. And yet, Claire was pulling it up even further, making Jin almost cry out for mercy from the pain.
“From how I see it, you better clear this yourself and the most you could bring with you is just one monster. ONE.”
“Then, I like to volunteer myself. Guarantee to finish the job and free of charge too” Yet another all too familiar came from afar and everyone in the room who took notice of him sigh simultaneously.
“Kraft, you will create more trouble than you solve them.” Claire finally released Jin’s ear as he instinctively placed his hands at his ear to soothe the pain.
“But look at it this way. Would you rather let a monster die multiple times or me killing that ugly crocodile butter-whatever fly so that Jin would be able to have him for the fight against the Rat Demons? Investing in me would be a great idea.” Kraft tried to promote himself although everyone knew that if he did not get his approval, he would still try to force his way into this particular mess.
And with a reluctant nod from Jin, Kraft instantly disappeared and emerged right in the middle of the battlefield with all the Pandarens reborn. “Still, this would be a rather boring fight if I were to kill it away, don’t you think?” Kraft questioned the nearest Pandaren which happened to be Bu Dong.
“Hey, aren’t you Boss Jin’s employee? That ermmm fox guy. Nasty crazy fellow but extremely powerful?” Bu Dong asked as he was already starting to run out of ideas on how to tackle the boss right in front of him. Perhaps, if he has his Mecha, things might be different. Or just the Mechataur that Jin usually would dish out when fighting against humongous monsters. “Or are we doing so badly that he had to ask you to aid us.”
“Hmmm, something along that lines, I guess but let’s put it this way. He did not order me to come here, I am here out of my own gooooodwill as support. Besides, you guys had been fighting for over half an hour already and dying more than we had anticipated. So… I am just strolling along the shop instance, and perhaps to even out the odds a little more for our dear customers.” Kraft said as his chi instantly spread throughout the entire shop instance, giving every Pandaren within the shop instance a boost in their capabilities.
Those who were slow in casting their techniques found that they were able to do it in an instant, while there were others who were slower in terms of reaction time, happened to be more perceptive when Farasha attacks, allowing them to dodge in time. All these little boost to the Pandaren’s capabilities caused their morale to be boosted up even further, causing Farasha’s plan to sow despair within the cultivators were nullified.
Even when Farasha tried to do the very same blast of void explosion from within had been blocked by Kraft as he used the Pandarens to come together and create a barrier to forestall that catastrophic damage to the shop instance, It was pretty much a one sided game the moment Kraft entered the battlefield that Jin could see the Pandarens were having fun while Farasha was not.
Even if Jin did not enter the battlefield, it was pretty apparent that the System would be able to catch Farasha without the User’s aid since he was encased in its System. The only person who was not happy aside from the desperate void being was Claire as she could not believe Jin was going to give out free goodies the moment this particular WARE was completed.
As such, Jin had decided to stick to the old method of throwing out gifts.
Through the lottery.
And that was enough to placate Claire’s fear as she knew that anything that has a percentage chance meant that it was something the shop could exploit. “Fine, you are forgiven just this once. As much as this fight is pretty much a goner for that void being, go to the shop instance and show your fanciful final blow. That’s the whole point of this WARE anyways. To catch the being for our own use.”
“Right away..” Jin said as he took a deep breath and teleported into the midst of the battlefield.
