I prepared to continue on my track to Dariaus Merchant Mall, but I stopped seeing a humanoid demon merchant who resembled a cyclops from the myths of the earth with the exception of his 2-meter height approaching the Red-Clad Dwarf. Seeing the Tiny Cyclops approach it, the Red-Clad Dwarf immediately got back on its feet and rushed past me. If was fast for someone of its stature. I guess its oversized feet were not just for show.
Good for him because it was clear the Tiny Cyclops would have tried to scam the Red-Clad Drawf into buying a token claiming that it would allow him to enter any shop in the city. It was one of the common scams targeting the new demon merchants. Especially, those that were not of the dark realm.
Putting this incident at the back of my mind, I continued on my way enjoying the beauty of sector DS0909"s unique architecture. Soon I arrived in front of a huge mall, The Dariaus Merchant Mall, it was fancy looking but nothing compared to the ones that I saw on my way here.
Pa.s.sing the golden arch gate I entered the mall with ease, and it was crowded. It was like all rookie demon merchants were here, they had to be because, in the entire DS0909, this was the only place where we code afford something. Tearing into the crowd I searched for the mall map.
Though the Dariaus merchant mall was not as fancy as other malls in this city, it still had 12 buildings and each building had 70 floors and counting. It was a huge a.s.s mall, but still not enough making me wonder just how many realms were there and for these many demon merchants to exist. Having found the mall map I planned my destinations based on my priorities,
1. List of pricing of various Ingredients and Items. Especially, that I can find in the card world.
2. Books on numerous races across myriad realms.
3. Finding a Realm Token
I can try buying all this on the inter-realm network"s search function but since I am here I wanted to see browse around.
Currently, I was on the ground floor of building no.07 and there happens to be a library on this floor. So noting the direction I had to go in, I stepped into the crowd heading that way. The tide of demon merchants carried me to the library, it was so tightly packed that I did even have to way. Then I forced my way out of the tide and entered the library.
The library was called The Infinity Library and was about 10 times larger than the biggest library I had ever been to. Just seeing the sheer number of books and selves in the bookstore I felt overwhelmed. Then I wonder who wrote all these books, it was one thing if it was in the physical plane but in the spiritual plane? The city in the spiritual plane was created by the Devil Merchant code but what about these books were they too created by Devil Merchant Code?
I doubt that because if they were created by the Devil Merchant Code, they would not be something rookie demon merchants like me could afford. Or maybe the Devil Merchant Code created these books on behave of the owner of this library for an appropriate offering.
While I was lost watching the majesty of millions of books, I was soon approached by something that resembled a tiny fairy from the myths of the earth, "h.e.l.lo, demon merchant, welcome to "The Infinity Library." I am Dredre the Pixie, I am your a.s.signed guide."
"h.e.l.lo, Dredre, you can call me Wyatt," I curiously looked at the Pixie, her small humanoid stature, transparent dragonfly wings, pointy ears, and tiny clothes really attracted me toward her. No, it was not due to her ability but my years of exposure to earth"s children"s books and cartoons. Unlike the disgusting orcs and goblins, I had a different childhood persecution of pixies.
"Wyatt, are there no pixie from where you come from?" Seeing my gaze linger on her for more than what"s considered a polite glance the pixie asked me.
"Sorry, please excuse my rudeness. This is the first time I am seeing a pixie. As for whether there are any pixies in my world, there should be but I never ran into one," Retrating my gaze I apologize to Dredre.
"No problem. But for a demon merchant from the other world, you are quite fluent in the dark tongue. So should I set this as your preferred language?" Dredre asked
"No, I am fluent in 16 different dark languages. Set all of them as my preferred languages," I said then began to list the 16 dark languages I knew to Dredre such that she could be a better guide for me.
"Okay, how may I be of your help?" Dredre asked as she turned to point toward rows and rows of books.
"Is there any book listing the price of various ingredients and items in the devil merchant code market?" I asked Dredre deciding to first tend to my priorities and then look for other books that would help me/
"Got it, there are about 82,876 books matching your request," Dredre immediately answered.

"..." hearing the number of books available in a limited genre, I was stumped. The only other time I was this stumped was back when I had visited one of the gulf countries back on earth to get seed money for a project and learned that their rulers had a net worth of over a trillion.
"Ahem!" Dredre cleared her throat seeing my stumped expression. But there was no judgment on her face, which saved me some embarra.s.sment as I asked her, "How are these books made? How much does one of these books cost?"
